There is much talk of the lawlessness so prevalent in South Carolina The matter has heen heralded from every stump in the State and county campaigns. Various things have heen given as the cause and various things have been exploited as the cure. It has often been said: "Ignorance is do noi believe a word of this. Ignorance may be an occasion and education may be a remedy?we willingly admit the force of these two statements. But there is a vast difference between e~u. and occasion and between cure and remedy. There is all the difference that is to be found between that which is basic and that which is superficial. The chief cause of lawlessness is in the failure of the law to reach the man "higher up." It has been and n a fact that the law, in its execution, falls with vastly unequal force upon rich and poor; prominent and lowly; the man with many friends and poor fellows with no friends. Here lies the real trouble. And it is because of just this condition that the courthouses, judges and juries have conn to be a "hissing" and a by-word. The so-called prominent citizen turns heaven and earth in his effort to prot< et s.nd shield one accused of crime when that one belongs to his own circle. These same individuals are loud in their denunciation of the offense committed by some ignorant and lawless devil possessed of few friends and no money. So often has this farce been enacted in our court houses that the great mass of mankind has lost faith in the law, in lawvors, courts, juries and judges. And the condition will not be corrected so long as- there is the inequality of justice. If you doubt the position herei\ taken, we respectfully invite you to attend court some week and see for yourself. We hear a great deal about blind! timers and their flagrant violation of law. I.ets see how this will apply as an example: The well-to-do citfscet orders his liquor by express. He drinks whenever he feels like it. He sets an example which plainly says that liquor drinking is not a bad thing. He need not be surprised then, to find that his poor neighboi, unable to buy in quantities and by express, takes himself to the blind tiger and gets his liquor in smalller quantities. So it goes through the whole range of human sinning. The law does not reach the "man higher with the force it smites the man lower down. And this is just the reverse of what should be. The ignorant, the poor, the friendless man should not he made to feel the iron hand of the law as severely as should the educated, the well-to-do and 1 man of many friends and great influence. He is a far worse man than the former, for his lights are brighter and his opportunities greater. He deserves to be beaten with many stripes. Usually he Rets off with no stripeB?goes free and is at once about his same old business of evil doing while the friendless and lowly ' man feels the full weight of the flail. ^ VOTERS ENROLL FOR PRIMARY. j The total enrollment in the 44 cotin- 1 ties of South Carolina for the pri- 1 niary on August 25 is 154,311. The * vote in the primary of 1912 was 140,415. An increase of 13,890 is noted ( in the enrollment for the 1914 pri- ! mary over the vote in 1912. In only two of the 44 counties is the enroll- ' ment this ^ear smaller than the vote ' of two years ago. In Fairfield a de- ' crease of 135 votes is seen, while in Oconee the enrolment is 20 less than 1 the previous vote. The enrollment of this year, compared with the vote of 1912 is interesting: ?

If the members of the lispensary board or employees support me, it is solely on the ground of heir regard for my fitness for the losition and not on any promises of eward. I have announced on every >tump that I entered the campaign 'ree from promises and entanglenents, and I shall close it in the same ndependant way. I have stated in ivery speech that I am in the race for what I am, and that, if I cannot win >n a manly position like this, I am infit to represent Union county in die State senate. That position should ippeal to the manhood of Union county. I am confident that I have this ight won, but in Justice to myself ind supporters the truth should be tnown. "J. Gordon Hughes." Card From Mr. Young. In justice to myself and to my friends I wish to state that I am not the author or originator of the renort Mr. Hughes denounces as fabe. rhat is that the dispensary board inluced him to enter the race or that inyone connected therewith did it or haf he has nromised them nr nnv nne if {.hem his support. I wish to state :hat I heard the report during the session of the general assembly and that the report was in general circuation in Union when I returned home in March. That part of his c^rd which stages that "if the members of the dispensary hoard or emnloyees support me, it is solely on the ground of their regard for my fitness for the posv tion and not on any promises of reward," may he suspiciously doubted when it is known that I, as Senator, killed the House amendment raising the salary of each of the dispensary board from $3.00 per day to $5.00 per :lay in 1913, and killed the House amendment raising their salary from *3.00 per day to $4.00 per day during the session of 1914. And I did it for what I thought was for the benefit of the Union county taxpayer, and Mr. Hughes is again in miserable error when he states, "I am confident that I have this fight won," if he has ever labored under such a delusion. it has been caused by the peculiar class of flatterers who have surrounded him for the past few months.

The place will not be used for hospital purposes, it was announced, but will be continued as a family hotel.

PAINT AND NOT Paint was so high the last few years thp market was flooded with trash. What is trash? It looks like paint and pretends to Iwi nolnf Ktif ien'f wrnrf li noinfinrr Tf costs a painter's day's-work to put-on a gallon of paint, good or bad; and a painter's day's-work is $3 or $4. Add that to the price of a galloa. That is the cost of a gallon. DeVoe is $5 or $6 a gallon; and trash a halfdollar less. But Devoe is all paint and more too; you add oil to it; a gallon j8 5 ( or (> quarts of perfect paint for the painter's pot. But trq^h is threequarters two-thirds or half paint; von nav a half-dollar leao for nohodv knows-what-it-is. 10 gallons Devoe is enough for the average job; it takes 15 to 20 gallons of trash.
