THURSDAY. JUNE 11. 1914.
Enrollment Books Open.
Tuesday the secretaries of the
Democratic clubs throughout the
State were required, under the new
rules, to open their books for the
enrollment of voters and to keep
them open from day to day until
Tuesday, July 28. All previously
existing club rolls having been declared
null and void, it behooves
those who want to vote in the primary
election next August t<? get
busy and get their names on the
club roils of their nearest precincts
In'fore the time expires.
The rule- for the enrollment and
qualification of voters in the primary
are, in hrief, :i* follows:
Any white Democrat may enroll,
who is a citizen of the I'nited
States and o?f South Carolina, who
is twenty-one years old (or will he
before the ensuing general election
in Noveinl>er) who has lived in
South Carolina for two years, in the
county six months and in the club
district in which he desires to enroll,
sixty days.
The applicant for enrollment is
required to present himself in person
to the secretary of his club and
if he cannot write his name he may
make his mark, and have it witnessed
by the secretary of the club.
The foregoing simple requirements
are all provided for under the
new rules for eligibility to vote in
the primary election.
Get your name early on your
club-roll.
Well, any way, the ample caudal
extremities of Governor Blease's
11 Jim swinger" allows plenty of
good "holt" for coat-tail swingers.
The vagaries of human nature
have never been fathomed by the
wisest minds. Here comes a story)
from Denver, Colorado, where a
man starved to- death with $S,()IK)
concealed in an artificial leg, and
now the authorities are looking for
the heirs of the deceased economist.
Senator MeLaurin seems at a
loss to know "where lie is at" politically.
At the beginning of his
most recent letter to the press he
denies that he has withdrawn from
the Gubernatorial race, while elsewhere
in the remainder of this
letter, he virtually admits that he
has handed over his "spotless banner
of freedom" to John G Richards,
the candidate who "is sup
ported by one good office and eagerly
reaching for another." Senator
McLaurin seems to realize that the
lot of the "coat-tail swinger" is not
altogether an enviable one.
We reproduce elsewhere in this
issue an editorial article from the
Newberry Herald and News, which
has been and still is, perhaps, the
strongest newspaper support the
Governor enjoys. Editor Aull,
however, is a fair-minded man with
the moral courage to condemn
wrong when committed by his
friend as well as by his enemy.
Few editors, by the way, are held
jn higher esteem by '"the brethren"
?as the late lamented Mrs Virginia
1) Young used to style the members
of the Fourth Estate?than Elbert
H Aull and the paper he edits is
one of the best among our exchanges.
The death of the Atlantic Coast
Line's veteran conductor, Capt W
ft Wfthh. at bis home in Charleston
Tuesday, brings sorrow to score- of
his friends all along the line he
served with signal ability and
fidelity for forty-two years. Captain
Webb, in point of service, was
next to the oldest conductor on this
division of the ACL railroad.
For many years his run was from
Charleston to Greenville, and there
was no more courteous, obliging and
popular railroad man in the State.
His death is mourned by all who
knew him for what he was?a kindhearted,
high-toned, Christian gentleman.
His place will be hard
to fill.

WHY WEAK LUNGS? j
The toll of tuberculosis is claiming
more than 350 victims every day in the
United States, yet few realize their grave
condition until the critical period arrives.
Overwork, worry, weakness after sickness,
catarrh, bronchitis, tender throats?
all exert the weakening influence that
invites consumption.
To guard against consumption, thousands
of people take Scott's Emulsion after
meals because its rich medicinal nourishment
strengthens the lnngs, puts vigor in
the blood, and upbuilds strength to resist
tuberculosis. Tcott's Emulsion is nature's
strength-builder. Refuse substitutes.
