THE COUNTY RECORD.
THURSDAY. SEPT. 7. 191b.
Vote For Manning Tuesday.
There is a small margin of 9,033!
between the combined vote of Coop-!
er, Manning, Duncan and Dos-1
Champs over that of Blease. It is!
highly probable that this number of
the Cooper, Duncan and DesChamps
supporters will fall into the Blease
column on next Tuesday. The only
way in the round world that we cam
figure out to keep this demagogue
from landing in the Governor's
office for a third term is simply for
every manning man to go to the
polls and vote to keep Manning in
the office and to keep Blease out of
it. There are about 25,000 voters
in the State who did not go to the
polls and vote in the first primary.
If this performance is repeated next
Tuesday Governor Manning will he
defeated. You can count on 100
per cent of the Blease vote br ing
polled, then why not poll 100 per
cent of the Manning vote?EVERY
MANNING MAN should do his
duty Tuesday by going to the polls
and casting a ballot for Richard I
Manning, and see to it that no one
frtrtrpfjs nor neglects this inmortant
.v.e 0
diity.

The conflict between tbe railroads
and their employes has served at
leat one good purpose. It ha? convinced
the ultimate goats (the public
at large) that laws must be enacted
to prevent a iccuirence of conflicts
in the future which have the
possibility of a paralysis of the commercial
interests of the country.
Those laws should l>e so drastic in
their nature as to force a course of
moderation on both sides to the controversy.
The people have rights,
as well as the railroads and their
I
employes. .

NAMING THE COCOANUT. I
- :E
What tho Word Originally Meant and j
How It Became Altered. |
The brown, hard shell nut cover- ' ^
ed with coarse fiber and containing ei
a white, brittle, oily "meat" and n<
some sweetish liquor, generally call- p
ed "milk," is the coconut and hot
the cocoanut. This fruit of a great
palm tree is a familiar thing on 1
the fruit stands and in the fruit !n
shops and food markets all over the ]
world. It has been an acceptable , (J
article of food among Europeans L(
for centuries, among Americans \
thnvA trnrA on Ah nnnn I n !
C*C1 dllicc uicic ouva |
as Americans, and among the peo- n
pies of the tropics for an undetcr- y<
mined number of centuries. It is t<
one of the very useful things that ^
grow, its use being so extensive and
its uses many. ^
Its name is a curious one. Being ?
about the size of a man's head, the o
Spanish early explorers and oversea
traders called it the coconut,
"coco" being a slang or vulgar r
Spanish word for n man's head. 1
The word in that sense survives in
American slang.
So. some early Spaniard, disregarding
the native names for this jj
nut, capriciously called it a co-conut,
and there being something ^
catching in the name it passed from '
mouth to mouth until it became cstablished
as the proper name of the ^
nut. t(
A man who took the trouble to j
look up the reason why the co-conut
is perhaps more often than not
called the co-coa-nut has written:
"Cocoanuts have been misnamed
for a century or more. It is 100
years 6ince a proofreader in London
allowed the word to Blip into a dictionary
as co-coa-nut. As many die
tionaries printed since have shown v
a 6heeplike imitation of this edi- F
tion, the misspelling of the word o
has been established. The word c
'cocoa' is the name of the bean from tl
^ which chocolate is made."?Wash- o

A Card from Mr McCulcheD. v
As it would be impossible for me p
to see and thank each one of you t]
personally I take this method of ex- ^
pressing to each and every voter in ^
Williamsburg county who supported g
me in the primary election on Au- t]
gust 29. my deepest gratitude. Real- p
ly words cannot express my appre- p
ciation of the confidence you have y
in me as shown by the splendid vote ^
you gave me in the first primary. I
trust that I may continue, always,
to merit your confidence and esteem, p
As one of your representatives in
the General Assembly I shall strive
to serve you to the best of my ability.
Very truly yours,
Adv D E McCutchen. <
A Card From Mr Snowdeo. k
To the Voters of Williamsburg
County: r<
I thank you who cast your ballots
for me in the primary election, and a
to my home people and those of the
adjacent communities, I express especially
my appreciation for your g
endorsement, which indicated your
confidence in me, and besides the n
drawing closer the friendly tie that
binds neighbor to neighbor.
To those who did otherwise, I assure
you sincerely that I entertain 0
the same cordial feeling that existed
heretofore and only hope to gain c
in your favor as the days pass by.
Yours truly, 6
