(Political Advertisement.)
Not the man who would best re]
resent the interests of Spartanbui
and not the man who would be
represent the interest of Greenvill
but the man who would best repr

The issue in the present conte
looms far above any consideratioi
of cou lty pride or county rivalr

Southern farmer, of determining tl
policy of the republic toward tl
warring nations of the world, cal
for a man of strong mould from th
District. A man of maturity
thqught and action, of experience
legislation, of ripened counsel,
reasonable conversati'sm in course,
caution, of discretion and of wisdo
should mirror the sentiment of o
people in the national crisis whii
will face the Congress of theUni't

It is out of deep conviction th
he is the man best qualified to repr

Attention is directed to the
that Austria-Hungary and Germ
