PAUL H. HEARN
Editor and Publisher.
THEY ARE FALLING AWAY
Ever since this .editor came 'to
South Carolina he has tried to fathon
the popularity of Cole L. Blease. We
have lontf been convinced that Mr
Blease was not the equal in point of
morals of many of those who support
him and that has been the mys
tery. When a man confessedly ol
low morals and no patriotism says hi
is for Blease we are not surprised.
Bleasc is and should be his repre
sentative, but on the other hand we
have observed that there are men ot
a worthier breed who are supporting
the same man.
We hope to have something to say
along this line at another time ant!
it will not be of a nature, we hope to
cause offense to those with whon.
we differ (those whose hearts art
right, but whom we are sure are following
a false god.)
It is sufficient to say here that
when all is said the greatest thin^
before South Carolina today, the
geatest task before the nation, before
the CIVILIZED world is the
winning of the war, making the world
safe for democracy. In view of this
self-evident fact all other issues
should be laid aside in South Carolina
before the one object of sending
tU.. TT..O...I C!?... ?(
vw ciic/miuu uciiuiu u iiiaii ui
unquestioned loyalty.
That man is not and cannot be Mr.
Blease. He has declared himself
against his country when that country
was facing a foreign and hideous foe
in the following language:
"And 1 believe religiously, as firm
]y as 1 believe that there is a God
in heaven that on the final judgment
day every American citizen who is
killed in this war olF of American
soil will be charged against the President
of the United States and the
members of the congress of the United
States who voted for it, as an unwarranted
sacrifice in the sight of
Almighty God of fresh young American
manhood."
This speech was made months after
the native country of Mr. Blease was
at war with Germany. It is evident
that he then thought South Carolina
disloyal and hoped to ride into the
ofiice on the disloyal vote.. What does
it signify that since that time he has
found the disloyal element in this
State so small that he has changed
front and now professes loyalty. It
is significant that the "Espionage Act"
under which he could have been indicted
and punished, was passed since
those utterances were made and that
no such utterances have come from
him since the passing of that act.
No, friends, the tame and molifying
speech of Mr. lilease at Chesterlield
on July .'51st, was not convincing
evidence of a change of heart, but
only evidence that he found great
numbers of his foretime followers
were leaving him.
There will be a further falling
away when all the people realize the
truth.
HURST AND dit-CRACE
It has been called to our attention
that great numbers of The Charleston
American are being distributed
iree to inc recipients ail over the
State of South Carolina. If that
paper can find some one with sufficient
money to pay for all these subscriptions
we see no reason why this
should not be done.
IJut as The Advertiser is interested
in its readers knowing the truth so
far as it is able to supply that truth,
we wish to remind our readers that
an associate editor of The CharlestonAmerican
is now in a Federal prison
for taking part in an actual German
plot against this country. This act
was not talking about his government
but for taking part with the enemy
while enjoying liberty in America.
The paper in question has been twice
debarred from the mails because of
disloyal uttrances.
Further, it is one of the Hurst
papers. There are many towns in
this country now that do not allow
a Hurst paper to enter its limits. The
Bolshevilci wrecked the Rums an government
and turned the country over
to Germany. William Randolph Hurst
and his associates are trying, through
their chain of papers to do the same
for the United States. If the record
of Mr. Blease were as white as the
driven snow the fact of his being
supported by a paper edited by the
Charleston dis-Grace and backed by
William Randolph Hurst would he
convincing evidence that he would
not do (0 trust Hurst nsyer was on
? ,
the morally right side of anything. He,
was always against the interests of
his own country, in the dispute with
Japan, in the war with Mexico and in 1
the present great struggle with the; '
worst enemy of civilization. Hurst 1
and Grace are a bad coinbinaiit 1 (
their support of Mr. Biease cannot',
help him in his endeavor to clear his
record of a serious charge of seditious ; '
utterances. Their ov/n recerd is t (
worse i Hun I a j 1
KAISER ON THROAT CUTTING ! ,
Dr. Arthur N. Davis, an American j
dentist, who practiced his profession I
fourteen years in Germany, is writing
a series of letters for a newspu- '
per syndicate. The kaiser was one
of his patients, with whom Dr. Davis
became quito intimate. Here are
some statements from the letters of
Dr. Davis that give an insight into the
opinions and purposes of the German
mind.
The Kaiser said of President Wii
"When it comes to throat cutting |
Wilson should have his cut first."
ONE MORE FIENDISH ACT
If there is any one in South Carolina
disposed to apologize for Germany's
cruelty or who opposes the administration
in the conduct of the
var that person should ponder this
incident.
In a recent German raid more than
ifty Belgian girls were killed by
jombs that were dropped upon a
.lospital in France. The girls were
r.aking bandages, preparing linen for
he wounded and doing similar work
vhen the cruel Uuns destroyed them.
Vmong civilized people when engaged
n war, women and children are exempt
from all the horors of the com>at.
But from the sinking of the
Lusitania when there were so many
lelpless women and children engulf d
in the angry waves of the sea, up
.0 this time, the Germans have been
leaf to the pleadings of the helpless
ind the innocent.
The record of the cruelty of the
Jermans to women and children is
1 record of fiendishness that has no
ival in the world's history.
It is a sacred duty to do everything
)ossible to assist in winning the war
igainst Germany.
If by any possibility the (iermans
hould win, our women and children
vould be at the mercy of a people
vho have shown no mercy. All that
.ve possess would be taken by Germany
to pay the expenses of the war,
out that would only be a minor consideration
to the cruel treatment that
vould be inflicted upon the women
tnd children of America. If you doubt
his think of Belgium and the ruined
somes of France.
PRICE FIXING
Mr. George R. James, chief of the
cotton and cotton linters section of
he War Industries Board is the auhority
for stating that it is not provable
that there will be any attempt
o fix the price of cotton.
He says that fixing a minimum
irice on raw materials has not and
vill not be adopted except in cases
.vhere there is danger of lack of supply.
He says further that as the surplus
| if cotton appears to be assumed there
leed be no fear of any attempt to
ix a price on cotton.
GOOD OUT OF EVIL
Did you ever imagine that there
ould be any benefit coming to this
ountry from the war? One effect
>{ the war thus far has been to dis ourage
the one crop system of the
.south. It is stated by authority that
.he war has done more than years of
advice to do away with the habit of
buying beans from Boston, furniture
rom Michigan, worn from the West
ind many other things that we can
raise and manufacture at home.
If we learn to live at home, keep.ng
our meat house not in Chiago,
but on our own premises, raising
scores and scores of things that we
were accustomed to buy, we can find
a silver lining in the war cloud that
hovers over us.
It is stated that Turkey has deserted
the Germans. If the half-civilized
and "unspeakable Turk" cannot endure
the Germans how can any enlightened
nation or people respect
them?
"Did he have any luck on his fishing
trip?"
"Knouirh to keen him in conversa
tion for several weeks."
EVER SALIVATED BY
CALOMEL? HORRIBLE!
Calomel is quicksilver and acts like
dynamite on jreur liver.
Calomel loses you a day. You
know what calomel is. It's mercury;
quicksilver. Calomel is dangerous. It
crashes into sour bile like dynamite,
cramping and sickening you. Calomel
attacks the bones and should
never be put into your system.
When you feel bilious, sluggish,
constipated and all knocked out and
believe you need a Hose of dangerous
calomel just remember that your
druggist sells for a few cents a large
bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone, which
is entirely vegetable and pleasant to
take and is a perfect substitute for
calomel. It is guaranteed to start
your liver without stirring you up
inside, and can not salivate.
Don't take calomel! It makes you
irlr n*?vt rlav it Iaaoi uau a /lav's
work. Dodson's Livor Tone straightens
you right up and you fcei great.
Give it to the children because it is
perfectly harmless and doesn't gripe.

jne night, by a mischamce to his mo

far from the destination he musl

informed him that some motor lorriei

"Soon," in the mouth of an Afri

that he wished to be waked when th
long hand reached there, and th
short hand, there. Then he lay dowr
with arm extended, and the negr
crouched beside him, with his eye
on the dial.
Exactly at the right moment th
sleeper was culled; and as he opene
his eyes they fell upon the Afr can, i
prcisely the same position, with some

"For sure him clock trabbel slov

An interval of silence, and the

NO NITRATE FOR FARMERS Li
The American farmer probably will
I have to do his best to produce a
L, bumper crop next year without the ^0l
> help of nitrate of soda.
r The question of procuring nitrate
. for i gricultural purposes is closely * 11
ur
connected with the demand for *ni- wy
trute for munitions and with the js
. availability of tonnage for bringing lal
, in the nitrate. It has been intimated '0<
, to the Department of Agriculture by
, the War Industries Board and the
. War Department that the need of ja|
, nitrate for munitions is such that it on
, is doubtful whether it will be possi- w>

lake between thumb and finder th?o j

e as a ' broiler" chicken or a jrreen
(j goose, it will be easily bent, like the
>t cartilage in the human ear; in a c,

Tricky dealers have been known

Despite the shortage of ships and 8W
- two shipwrecks, farmers received 75,- ;h
000 tons of nitrate of soda from he
Chile, bouKht through the War Indus- 'n
1
? tries liourd, and distributed by the
. Department of Agriculture this year. t)j
The nitrate was sold and delivered j
, under authority of the Food Control ar
u act which authorized the President n(
e to procure and sell nitrate of soda at j3
? cost for the purpose of increasing :n
e tood production, and appropriated
d 1 $ 10,000,000 for this purpose. The aJ
e j War Industries Board was designated
e by the President to make arrangemeats
for the purchase of the nitrate jn
U and the Secretary of Agriculture was ^
8 charged with its sale and distribution.
'1 he nitrate was sold at $75.50 a
e ton at ports, its cost as nearly as it u)
d could be determined in advance. Apn
plications for more than 120,000 tons, ni
.. he total amount purchased in Chile, j
r. ,vere received by the department in w
e /ebruary, 1918. On account of shorto
;ge of available shipping it was pos- ,i
sible to bring in only 75,000 tons,
leaving on hand in Chile between
u )00 a:id 40,000 tons. Ships have V(
e ,ust been assigned by the Shipping I ^
doard for the transportation to this j n

rate contracted for last year, which,\ a

GERMANS WELCOME US
AS SPEEDING WAR'S END
With the American Army on the
\isne-Marne Front, Aug. 2.?German
ioldiers generally welcome the news
that more American soldiers are arriving
in France, believing that the
Faster the Americans arrive the sooner
there will be a decisive battle or
.1 definite peace move, according to
a Sergeant of the Fourth Prussian
Ciuards division who was captured by
.he Americans near Sergy.
The prisoner told the correspondent
that the German soldiers were
lick of the war and also that the
poorer classes in Germany had
enough of it and that they believed
1u..? ? ?
nun until, vjfi intiiiy wan uuuna uj lose.
The capitalists, however, insist on
continuing the war at all costs.
"German officers," the prisoner
laid, "informed us months ago that
:he Americans were taking few priioners
and that those taken were
treated inhumanly. They kept warning
us constantly that death was prererable
to being captured by the
Americans, but not all the German
toldiers believed that, despite the high
regard in which officers are supposed
:o be held.
"Among the German soldiers it was
lommon talk that if anyone of them
lad a good chance to be taken priloner
in the hands of the Americans
le would do so, providing he was
reasonably certain that he could pre:cnd
he was not altogether to blame.
So, generally umong the Germans
who have been in the war four years,
is I have been, many are eagerly
watching for an opportunity to be
raptured."
The Sergeant said the officers nev;r
told them the truth when there was
.0 be a German offensive. The offi
era got the soldiers nerved for a fight
>y informing them that the Allies
vere about to launch an attack, and
hen at the proper time they would
>rder their own men forward.
There is no danger of a revolution
imong the German soldiers, he continued,
so long as they are well fed.
He said the German soldiers had
neat, mostly in the form of a stew,
. very day, but the poorer class at
lome had only three-quarters of a
round a week. Generally speaking,
he soldiers had enough to eat, but
10 luxuries.
War weariness in Germany, the Serjeant
declared, was increasing as the
var continued. He added that if the
Americans had had four years of war
hey would be wur-weary too. Among
he troops there was not much gossip
icard about the Kmpcror, most 0/ the
alk concerning Field Marshall von
lindenburg, who is looked upon as
he world's greatest warrior.
The Serjeant is 30 years old and
las a wife and four children in Berin.
He said he had been engaged in
he Mame fighting three day when
te was wounded in the leg by an
American bullet. He dropped to the
ound when he saw two Americans
ushing toward him. Soon afterward
le was carried to the rear on a
tretcher. The Sergeant's cot is
imong fifty containing American
founded. One big wounded Ahterian
made'such a fuss in attempt to
ontinue the fighting with the Gernans
that he had to be moved to
.nothar ward.

CARD FROM MR. STEVENSON .
To the Democratic Voters of the Fifth
Congressional District:
I respectfully ask to be renominated
and re-elected to Congress from
this District and agree to abide the
result of the Democratic Primary
Election.
I will not be able to spend much
time in the District this summer, because
of the great amount of important
legislation growing out of the
war situation, but will attend meetings
whenever possible. It is absolutely
essential for Congressmen to
be at their post this time.
W. F. STEVENSON.

Cincinnati authority tail* Haw to dry
up any corn or callus so It
lifts right off.
You corn-pestered men and women
need suffer no longer. Wear ths
hoes that nearly killed you bsfors,
says this Cincinnati authority, bocause
a few drops of freexone applied
directly on a tender, aching
corn stops soreness at once and soon
the corn loosens so it can bo lifted
out, root and all, without a bit of
pain.
A quarter of an ounce of freesone
costs very little at any drug store, but
is sufficient to take off every hard or
soft corn or callus. This should bo ^
tried, as it is inexpensive and is said '
not to inflame or oven irritate the
surrounding tissue or skin.
If your wife wears high heels she
will bo glad to know of this. Ado 1.
