SPEND YOUR MONEY AT HOME
Too much good Chesterfield county
money is going abroad never to
return. We do not believe in miserliness
in any form nor in commercial
prejudice against the outside
world, but nevertheless we say too
much Chesterfield county money is
going away never to return.
The mail order catalogues that
coma to this county every year cost
thousands of dollars to produce. They
would not come here if many thousands
of dollars were not spent in return
with those houses.
We venture the assertion that
nine-tenths of the goods bought from
these houses could bo bought cheaper
and to better advantage from a
Chesterfield county merchant.
The chief reason for those foreign
purchases is this: The customer has
In his home tho catalogue and price
list of tho big store und therefore he
knows he can get a certain article at
a certain price. His local merchant
may have it and at a lower price, but
h<- doesn't know it. Of course the local
merchant could send a part at
least of his list of goods and prices
every week into the homes of his
prospective customers, and some of
them do it, but most of them do not.
Therefore the mail order.
The argument of this editorial is:
"T-? A _ _ . IX >i ii
imuc at numi; an you can, even
if you have to travel to your merchant
and compel him by forcful
mans to tell you what he has to sell
in the line in which you are interested.

You do not have to go outside of the
county to buy a gas engine, an automobile,
a tractor engine, threshing
machine, as well as a thousand and
One other items. You may have a
hard time to find out where some of
these things are sold, but if your local
patriotism is strong you would
rather buy from a local man who pays
taxes and spends his money in this
county than to send your money
away.
The good book says that "Charity
covers a multitude of sins," but it
does not follow that a strip of red,
white and blue bunting will cover a
multitude of unpatriotic and disloyal
utterances.
The Pageland Journal changed
hands last week, the Rev. R. S. Latimer
having bought out the business
nd assumed control. Mr. Latimer
?as been connected wth The Jourml
for some time past and has given
evidence of real newspaper ability.
We cordially welcome Mr. Latimer
as a full-fledged brother in the local
fraternity. In the retiring of Mr.
fucker the county loses one of the
best newspaper men it ever had.
WORKING FULL TIME
President Wilson has been putting
in full time and more on the big job
of bringing peace to the world. He
has been able to carry his points even
when opposed in some cases by the
brainiest men in Europe. He sue
cceded in having the Monroe doctrine
recognized, very much to the
distrust of some of his American
critics who fear they will have nothing
left for which to abuse the President.
It has been ascertained that the total
c ualties of tho United States
soldiers in the war with Germany
amount to 2711,10.1. This includes
those who were killed in action, died
of wounds and disease and missing.
Though small in comparison with the
losses of our allies, it is a fearful
price to pay for Germany's ambition
to rule the world. |
?
According to late cables the
amount Germany is to pay the Allies
is $5,000,000,000 in the next two
years. This is in addition to a large
sum to be paid yearly for thirty
years.
One of the kuiser's sons, Joachim
Hohenzollern, is said to be coming to
the United States to live. Somebody
should inform his royal nibs that this
climate is likely to prove unhealthful
for him.

OUR NEWEST PERIL
A British chaplin tells of some o
the horrible strocites of the Bo
sheviki in Russia, attrocities that ar
almost beyond belief.
These wild anarchists start out wit
the slogan, "we abolish God" an
then establish their partnership wit
the devil by the most diabolical out
rages. They are opposed to all re
iigion. Orthodox Roman Catholic
and Lutherans alike have been tor
Lured, multilatcd and done to deatl
under the aegis of the holy revolu
tion, which appeals to the prolgtaria
of the whole world to join its forcer
Before killing their victims the;
cut off their limbs and some of ther
they buried alive. In one cathedra
the great figure of the crucified Chris
was torn down and removed and i
monstrous and appalling pagan fom
placed in its stead symbolizing "free
dom of mind."
One army officer said: "In Russi:
now there is no God, no czar, no law
no property, no money, no foodonly
freedom." And in that travest;
of liberty which the whole civilizei
world may shudder at, all mercy, pit;
and toleration are alike scorned. Ant
it is this new and wonderful equalit;
of man which by means of torture
outrage and assassinations proclaim
the "freedom of mind and body" t<
the devastated Russian nation.
It is far from a comforting though
that this horde of outlaws has it;
apologists and in some cases its fol
lowers in the United States.
Can anyone object when the strong
arm of the United States crushes ir
the bud anv organization that nor
takes of the nature of Bolshevism?
HIGH PRICES TO STAY WITH US
A New York banker, Mr. O. P
Austin, in a recent address, claim:
that high prices will not soon decline
He asserts that the present higl
prices are due to three causes.
First, the urgent demand createc
by the war, for food and raw materia
for the use of the vast armies in th<
field; second, the advance in wage:
due to the increased cost of living
third, the enormous inflation in th<
world's currency caused by the vas
quantities of paper money put ou
by the leading countries.
Women have been given the privi
lege of the ballot by the Tennessei

; to connect England and France is one
s of the latest projects to develop from

eon broached this idea and it has

that the war has shown the great need
of it, it will undoubtedly be con
structed and will serve as one more
