Just a month before our Deiy? era tie primary election July 2-G, two champions of the pugilistic art battied for supremacy in far off California to the delectation ofa throng of spectators gathered from all parts of the country. However eevereh we may condemn the brutality oi the prize ring there was one incident connected with the affair whiel. points a moral to defeated candidates. At the end of the lighl when one of the pugilist wai knocked out by a terrific blow, h< staggered to his feet and grasping the victorious champion's hand magnanimously said: "You are tin better man and deserved to win thi: tight." In this same spirit we hjopv to see each of our vanquisher politicians, after the battle of ballots take his successful competitor by tin baud and congratulate him upor his good, fortune in being the choice of a majority of his fellow citizens The State Campaign The thirty odd candidates for Stab offices who spoke here Saturday al seemed to make a good impressioi rtiid we have heard more than 0111 person express the w i?h to be able t< vote for them all. As this may no be done the thing to do is to selecl the very best man for each office In all sincerity we believe the tine has come in South Carolina politics when a candidate is weighed according to his merits ayd the word: "Keformor" and "Conservative" an but reminders of a bitt?-r past. Th< lift of State candidates gives a wid< latitude of choice for almost ever office, and with the material offere< we hope to see a ticket nominate* of winch South Carolinians may h justly proua. We have an abidiui faith in the people and if they g w rong in their chc-ice o?

The fol- j ad owing taken from the Cotton and ; farm Journal, throws some light upon | this subject: ''The rules adopted by the Texas >Jtton Soed Crushed' Association puts j t In hn? with the other associations of | ' x similar kind hi the South. It Is prob- IJ: Xbie that there will be no more Invas- , P'( on of Mississippi and Alabama by | ? rexas mills in search of seed. "The cattlemen who were expected j 1"' tve-re to exp<>etulate owr th'Mr alleges i bad tr"frtm<?nt during the past yeuc ! aave not put In appearance as yet. and I tnay not. The crushers do not seem ! joncerned over the threat of some of j 15' the cattlemen to operate thefr own fo rntiis. The fact that the Swift Com- i ip pany has reoently purchased half a j ,.tl Jogen mHls different points was | ^ not commented on by any of the crushers to whom It was mentioned. save to | the effect that Swift would probably I be a-b+e to use more feed than those I > mills would provide. | "A resolution was adopted deprecet- I su tng 'any act of congress that may tend P' to reduce the price of cattle and hogs." ar?d alleging that the present high , price of nK*at is due 'to a shortage in seed products.'" This would seem to show there were til two skies to this question of high beef ei ind that In so far as Texas is concerned the price of beef is bound to vary with the price of cotton seed hulls and cot- di too seed meaL In proportion as the Si grass area of Texas has diminished, (j the cattle-raisers have been compelled L>1 to buy feed stuffs, and the only availahle fe^d-etuffs in quantity is cotton ? seed hulls and cotton seed meal. Hulls [.'( have been selling within the last year or two In Texas as high as $14 a ton. This means that the meat supply in the future Is largely dependent upon jc the ootton seed oil business, and that the people of the Southeastern States , . will probably go mudi more exter^lvely ' into the business of raising cattie for -f beef purposes after they find out as much about the values of hulls and meel as the Texas cattle man nas found out by the necessities of the d case. It would seem as though the E wist>-rn farmer now has the advantage tl of the Texan In raising cattle for beef pun***-s arxl In handling cattle for dairy purposes. All the cotton seed products that are needed for cattle raising and competition with other markets can be had right at home through the Southern e< Cotton CHI Company of the Carolines j1( and Georgia, through any of its mills <( or Its headquarters at Columbia.
