J Dollar Democracy Campaign The Dollar Democracy campaign is P^ng excellent progress according CCeports reaching state headquar-i. The organization of the cam?' lii ign to secure funds for the election j,Cox and Roosevelt has been com"ted in 34 of the 46 counties. Rets received from Gen. Willie Jones, te treasurer of the party, indicate ,t several thousand dollars have already been contributed by loyal Demo* crats. Contributions have been received from practically every county in the State. Thos. P. Cothran, state chairman of the executive committee, is anxious for the canvass for funds to be completed as soon as possible. Mr. Coth ran, in a statement issued, calls attention to the fact that a great amount of money will be needed for the national campaign and that it is the duty of every Democrat in South Carolina to contribute as much as one dollar. Of course larger subscriptions will . jnct-be refused. V Reports received from national headquarters are veryj encouraging and there is every hope of party success. The Republicans, it is pointed out, will spend large amounts of money in an effort to carry all doubtful states. Gov. Cooper is very much interested in the campaign and urges that every voter in the State support the party liberally. - - ? Joe Sparks, financial director of the campaign, has received the following letter from Wilbur Marsh, national treasure^: "May I suggest that if a man can afford to give more than a dollar it is only right that he do so. The only testi of helpfulness in spirit is to give until you feel that you have denied yourself by reason of the gift. The campaign will cost proportionately more than four years ago, I know that the South Carolina Democracy will do its full duty." Nearly two thousand solicitors have been appointed in the State to collect the dollars for Democracy. Committeemen for Williamsburg Co.

The spawn of financial fools is like that of fishes for quantity. Schools and schools of suckers are generated daily in the upper sources of the river 01 me. There is a direct and measurable ratio between the addition of every 1 per cent to the promised returns on investments and the number of gudgeons who swallow the hook. The bitter experiences of other individuals, and even of generation, go for nothing as preventives. The race, as a race, is as susceptible to the temptation of enormous dividends today as yesterday, in spite of the financial wreckage on the shores of the ocean of life. And yet the fundamental fact about returns upon the investment of money is as comprehensible as breathing. The danger rises with dividends, and that is all there is about it. With every penny of return above a normal 5 or 6 per cer.t, the reasons for common people letting any investment alone increase in a geometrical ratio. It has become an integral part of ' modern education to teach people how to make and to save money. Why not to invest it?

C., Aug. 4.?An election will be called at once by the Florence county highway commission to submit again to the voters the qutston of issuing $450,000 worth of highway bonds. Very likely the election will be held August 31. This action follows the resolution and petition of the central committee of the Chamber of Commerce of Lake City, Timmonsville and Florence at the meeting Monday evening in Timmonsville. J. W.

This is purely a friendly contest to set Je a question of whether another election can be legally held at this time. The county attorney holds that :'t can be held.

The man, who appeared to have been about fifty years of age, was dressed in a navy blue suit, double breasted, with a brown top-coat, black ribbed socks and grey shoes. On his coat was fastened a metal badge with the letter "B."
