I SnPftphAO in ?-.? ? * 1"* 9 ? .u vuc pi'estsnt VJOn-| * J gress was made recently by the 15 Republican minority leader.! Hon. James Ii. Mann. It was notable and unexpected, coming c ' as it did from the leader of the 1 ^ Republican party. In discussing the Lincoln me- 1 DSe morial project, Mr. Mann said: I' "Some day this great Govern- ' raent of ours, in the loving ten-1 derness of forgiveness and for-l getfulness, would reach out with a road leading from the capital ' of the United States to the capi-1 Vou tal of the old Confederate States, I the and that at the other end of that 1 ol!, road?Richmond?some day there I 1 ? would be erected a monument to! the man whom the South most! Q. loved and revered?in modern 1 days at least? Jeflfer&on Davis, ?the President of the Confederate ==i States " This must have made some of the Democratic Congressmen pinch themselves to see if thev I were dreaming or wonder if the millenium had arrived. It was a brave thing for Mr. Mann to do, especially as he has been mentioned as a probable candidate for the Presidency or Vice-i'residency on the Republican ticket An English paper is calling upon the United States to interfere in the war and make an end of it. It's like the boy who stuck his head in one end of the calf's yoke. When the calf was runuing away with him he yelled: "Stop us, somebody stop us." Henry Watterson says, and _ says truly "that if the money that has been appropriated on undeserved aud fraudulent pensions had been spent on our naI vy and army there would not be * a country in the world today as ^ well 'prepared' as the United States." J. T*. 1? l ? ib ims jwn over Mty years 4 since the war between the States 1 closed and yet pensions and in crease of pensions go steadily on * as if there was no bottom to ^ Uncle Sam's money chest. Mr. Brandies is not the first | Jew to be appointed a Justice of ? the Supreme Court. Mr. Judah * P. Benjamin was offered this m high office by Franklin Pierce, ? but Mr. Benjamin declined. He ' T later followed the fortunes of the Southern Confederacy, re 1 * signing from the United States * Senate. He became Attorney 1 ' General of the Confederacy, then Secretary of war, and afterward Secretary of state. After the ] ' war he went to London where he * secured a large and lucrative < practice. e NO TIME TO TURN BACK 8 Much ado is being made about " the fire insurance situation of ] the State. The mildest descrip- v tive word that some of the pa- I pers are now using is "muddle." ? Laney aud Odom, McMaster and n McL?aurin, not forgotting Man g ning and the legisture and sen- ate in general are coming in for a good deal of cussing? tne quality and extent of said cussing, it seems to us, depending upon the political bias of the cusser. C When this legislation was proposed this paper deemed it cne of the finest moves ever attempted in the State. To-day it sees no reason for changing its opjni- p on in the matter. The way is ^ now clear for State fire insur- v ance. The experiment on a b small scale of Insuring thecounty court houses has proven ? | successful. We fail to see why j the state cannot at once enlarge g the scope of the insurance de p&rtment to take in all kinds of k fire insurance. ^ This could be done at a good o! profit to the State and at a big ' saving to the insured. fc This is no time to think of surl render to the big insurj. e com- j[, \ ptnies Ajy th Bfc^Viththe Southes*. I The Columbia State urges in a ' igorous editorial that every one { the Coonby Conventions of k>uth Carolina endorse the reiomination of President Wilson? 7he Advertiser seconds the moion. A man went into a court room n Kentucky and acciiently drop >ed from his pocket a pint bottle >f whiskey. The judge got nothDg(but the odor of the whiskey jo he fined the man ten dollars The Indian appropriation bill jarries $12,000,000 for the next 5seal year. It does seein from this and the pension increases that Uncle Sam has money to burn and is burning it, making a bonfire as it were. With characteristic modesty Roosevelt says he will not be a candidate for the presidency un less conditions are like they were when Washington was president. If Roosey's modesty, like measles, should strike in, it might be the death of him. Kentucky Republicans are di vided very widely as to what to do with Congressman Caleb Powers. One funf-inn ?-onfo seed him back to Congress, the other faction wants to send him back to the penitentiary, where he had served time and was pardoned out. Owing to overcrowded conditions at the South Carolina Industrial School it was found necessary to "parole" 82 of the boys. A parole granted for good behavior often accomplishes much good for the youthful de linquent. But a parole given be cause the legislature has not allowed sufficient funds to properly house and care for the inmates is quite a different matter. Military Training for Business Men The national government will hold an encampment f<?r business men of this section at Fort Oglethorpe, Georgia. This encampment will begin May 3d and last about four weeks. The expense of this encampment will bo .$30, to be paid on entrance This will includi all necessarv expense for the thirty days. All attending will get the very best of tr. ining under U. S Army officers. This includes not onlydrilling but lectures and genera' instruction to make a man n broader and better informed man and citizen. Those in charge of the arrangements ex pect 200 from South Carolina and it is hoped ihat there will be at least ten from Chesterfield county.

Square Deal Drug Store. SEVERE PUNISHMENT X Mrt. Chappefl, of Five Years' Standing, Relieved by CarduL Mt. Airy, N. C.?Mrs. Sarah M. Chapell of this town, says: "I suffered for j ve years with womanly troubles, alsd tomach troubles, and my punishment < tas more than any one coulu tell. I tried most every kind ot medicine, ut none did me any good. I read one day about Cardul, the wo- ' tan's tonic, and I decided to try it. I , ad not taken but about six bottles until was almost cured. It did me more ood than all the other medicines 1 had , ied, put together. f My friends began asking me why I >oked so well, and I tola them about I ardui. Several are now taking it." . Do you, lady reader, suffer from any 1 the ailments due to womanly trouble, ? ich as headache, backache, sideache. ? ecplessness, and that everlastingly tired . If so. let us urge you to give Cardui a ial. We feel confident it will help you, . ist as it has a million other women in 1 ie past half century. ] Begin taking Cardui to-day. You on't regret it.

State Fire Insurance For Public Schools | The attention of the school 1 trustees of Chesterfield county g is called to an act of the recent General Assembly that all scboi 1 tiouses worth three hundred dollars or over must be insured. If I ! the buldings are of wood thenjl the insurance must be carried in j & -onie regular fire insurance com- j pany : if the buildings are of j brick or concrete then 55 per j cent of the insurance must be j carried in a regular firj inrur-1 ance company and 45 per cent of the insurance must tie carried in ! the Insurance Fund of the Sinking Fund Department of the State of South Carolina. The Insurance Fund of the Sinking Fund of South Carolina ' has been uniformly successful , evcr since its establishment fifteen years ago. In the begin" ninc lli" ' vue i nifiiii wan wit hout appropriation of any kind whatsoever and only a small percentage of the insurance on any one State or county building was carried By the present, however, the Insurance Department of S uth Carolina has accumulated a surplus of over one hundred thousand dollars, all earned from premiums over and above losses an I expenses. The State of South Carolina has bv a gradual process gene into the fire insurance business to protect her own property and that of the various counties. Now, the policy is further expanded and public school buildings will be taken care of in part. The rate charged by tie State is a good deal! cheaper than that of regular fire] insurance companies.
