Was there ever BO much race pride n thc world as there ls today? Tho rar originated in pride of race, with IB progresa tho sentiment has been anncd to n conflagration sweeping europe, and probably destined to weep thc world. Germany wanted a "place In the an" for Teutons. Russia wanted a .lace for Slavs. Now a dozen other aces, -.id offshoots and mixtures lever before dignified by the name of aces, aro clamoring for recognition. The English are conscious as never icfore of their Anglo-Saxon blood and deals, and their ambition for auprem icy. The French .oday are more Gai le Utan their purer-blooded ? bre athers were, and determined to re mite the whole race under their own lag. Italy ts striving with amazing inanlmlty for the "redemption" of lutlaying Italian communities from he foreign foe. The .Balkan nations lave all caaght the fever. Bulgaria s eager to "extend our frontiers no ll thoy embrace tho peoples of our iwn blood." Serbia wants to gather a all the Serbe. Rumania wants the lumanlans ot Tranaylvanla and Bea arabta. Greece wanta the scattered lellenes of the Aegean and Asia minor. 'Die l'oies, whose iiatlunullty vanished more than a century ago, yearn to bo a nation again. Even tlio '|czect:s are rnbitlous for svpaiatc statehood. Thc Jews, scattered through thc world 2,000 years ago, arc drawn closer und the Zionist movement is strengthened. There- are many admiruhlc phases of this new racial pride. It is the Spirit of liberty, of progress, of crca ! ti ve zeal. Ami yet, there are mourn ful sides to lt. It tends strongly to racial egotism and jingoism; ft blows the Hames of war still hotter, scorn ing compromise and postponing the flay of [n arc. It may drive the na tions to exhaustion, as ancient Greece spent its strength in factional war fare. It makes the races over-sensi tive, self-conscious, selfish and Quar relsome. It is good for race to govern itself, hut not for it to be itibancly jealous Of it? neighbors and ready to light at the drop of a hat. Thc fostering of this exaggerated race ego may post pone universal peace and the "fed eration of the world," just as it post pones the development of a humaniz ing and unifying world-culture. We are likely to have too many "cul tures" and too many ticklish geo graphical houndarius for the lasting good of thc human race-which Is af ter all the only race that really counts. rKNN FOR WOMEN ! Gertrude Atherton, Hie novelist, de clares that writing is a woman's joh. "Mun," she says, "ought to do things, not write about them. When a mau does nothing but write, his hands get soft and his character, too. He might ns well bo crocheting." Robert Louis Stevenson used to wish he had the strength to do the adventurous things lie made his fic tion heroes do. but lt certainly never occurred to him that in writ Tig "Treasure island" and "Kidnapped" (ie was doing u woman's work. Is lt really trt'.c that it's more man ly to do big deeds than to create char acters who do them? If so, a hero in real lifo is greater than the Creator Himself. Heroes In real life, anyhow, usually owe most of their heroism to writers. Does any modern man or woman doubt that Homer was bigger and braver than all his Trojan heroes put together? Aeneas was "some hero." according to thc Roman legend. But if ever there was an Aeneas In real Ufe, he did far less for Rome and the world than the mild and scholarly Virgil who sang about him. \ What Is a "deed," anyhow? Isn't a man who writes a,great novel or poem "doing something" just as much as tho man wno builds a bridge or dlgB a canal or captures .1 fortress? WAR AND NEW8PAHER1NG. Judging from some of the hot com munications Mell Glenn is printing every few days in his paper he must think by now that Gen. Sherman had never tried running a newspaper when he made his famous remarks. York News. And you'vo probably noticed also. Brother o' Mine, that an editor can pass hts days shouting himself hoarse for thc good of tho community and humanity in general-urging on tho people thoso things that will lift us up out of bondage of moral depravity, ignorance, bad government, rotten economic conditions, etc. etc.-and re ceive rarely, If over, ono single word of encouragement. And yot the very instant someone sees something In tho naper which ho Imagines does not set well with him-ram, bat. swash, blain, slam, swat, wham, whack reverberates the lusty -kicks on the poor editor's carcass. But thea lt's all in a life tmle ariyway. and when ye editor gets his "Thirty" here below and hikes oft for Gloryland bright will be his crown with stars, and brighter still tor hav ing striven to do his duty in spite ot odds. PROHIBITION RALLY HELD AT PIEDMONT Special to The Intelligencer. Piedmont, Sept. 9.-Piedmont is all abl?se with enthusiasm today over the great prohibition rally held here last night. The fact that nearly a thousand people crowded Into the opera house, bringing in extra chairs and some standing to her Will D. IT;* shaw, the, "Georgia Cyclone," shows tS*e Interest here In the cam paign for state-wide prohibition. The .speech of the Oeorglo editor and ora tor on "A Stainless Flag Ppr Caro? lina," was refreshingly free from bit terness, bat lt proved to be such a cyclonic combination of wit, argu ment and ?loquence that the immens? audience waa surging from first U last between laughter, applause and tears. When the test vote waa out, not a dispensary vote was found in the vast crowd. At the close ot his masterful address the ."Georgia Ora tor on Crutches" received an ovation ci congratulations. A LINE o' DOPE Local cotton market 9 :i-H cents. Professor Harding, principal of tho Frazer Fitting school, stau-d yester day to a represen'?Uve of this paper that their school would open Mon day Hie thirteenth with a full enroll ment. This speaks mighty well for tills school, UH it ia comparatively a rutlier UOW school; but tiley have al ready established a very enviable rep utatlon in this section of South (.'aro lina. -o Mr. Abc Leaser, the dry good mer chant on the weat aide of thc square yesterday waa the recipient of a nice present, that waa uniquo and useful as well. Mr. Lesscr's cousin. Dr. Joseph Jacobs, thc celebrated druggist of At luutu sent Mr. Lesser a beautiful de canter, that was really four decan ters in one. Inside of the decanter was divided into four separate con tainers, so that one could pour out a drillk of "('renie De Minthe" one time, and nt another "Cufacat ' or "Apri cot Ltquerur," or "Creme Dc Cacao." The different after dinner cordials certainly locked protty, with their dif ferent colors, all in the same bottle. lt certainly ia a curiosity, and well worth seeing. Those who happened In Moore-Wil son and company's thia; morning about ten o'clock were almost convinced that there waa a violant epidemic of hay fever just brcakng out.

Campbell, who lives about five miles out of the clfy on the Wil llamston road, brought to Tho Intel ligencer office several fine stalks of cotton well fruited. However, thia is not the whole story. On one stalk 17 bolls out of 24 had ween attacked by thc fungus disease cillcd anthracnose, and each of these wi! bc a total loss. Four bolla on tho aa?k had . already omened so it might bc suited that nearly every boll hal been attacked. The bolla oo the otter stalks were Just as bad. Thia disease ls dong untold dam age to the cotton in Anderson coun ty. There is nothingto do to stop it and the farmers are ?ping to lose lota of money on account if it.

POTE AT ON PROHIBITION To the Editor of The State: The mayor of Columbia secmB con cerned about the loss ci the income from the liquor business and. the In crease of taxation to 25 mills, which this loss would entail. Two things in reply: First. Money has no weight against morality. If Columbia ls willing to sell its conscience' for #500,000, let it sell it; but let lt understand what lt ls doing and take tho consequences. A community which holds street pav ing above righteousness 1B night to a I curse, is \eady to perish. But this j Is the talk of thc intolerant prohibi tionists, and for some reason it does 1 not sound well to the local optlonlsCs | and tlie personal liberty men. Second. Well, let these latter con sider this. If Columbia loses her 1175,000 (whatever tho figure is no matter) from the liquor business, she loses something else at the samo time, and this latter loss the mayor and you seem not to see. She loses the poverty which the liquor traffic ia re sponsible for; she loses the task of j policing drunkenness; she loses tho waste and deterioration of efficiency : in those who drink; she loses tnc | anguish of women - and children caused by the drinking of husbands and fathers and sons, etc. Or to put lt positir-qy, while losing the liquor income, Columbia would gain what lt costs to police drunkenness, to care for tho poor; she gwins the In creased efficiency of the drinkers, etc. Here ls s recent illustration of the I Bavin g under a single item; Dauphin county, Pennsylvania, Including fue etty of Harrisburg, receivers in rev enue from the liquor business $34. 316. The directors of the poor, to gether with Che steward of tho alms house, on recent Investigation found I two things-that the care of the poor costs the county $186.000 and that 60 j per cent of the people In the alms house are In their plight-through the ase of liquor. That ls io say, ? tho care of the poor costa tue county more than five times the revenue from the liquor business. Dauphin county .would drive a good- bargain to lose $34,315 and save upwards ot $165.000. But I hear you say: "You forget! the blind tigers; yon assume total ab-| ?tlnence tn Columbia when prohibi tions become? the law." I reply that in this argument we do not need to throw a sop to Cerberos, to give com fort to the enemy by assuming be forehand that dio is going to outwit ns when lt comes to enforcing the law. We will tske that question up when wb come to lt. Wie are roncern sd only with the question of doing right now and mar complacently ook fonward to whatever tasks such i, course Involves. One thin? more. It would be un-? rraetoas for me to maka the charge hat ?ha local optlontsts and personal iborty nett drink. Many or them, 5 nm sure, du not. Rut these must not hopo to escape the company they keep In this hattie. Tolstoy, him self for a i ousiderahle period of his life a drinking man, puts it this way: "Whothu they wish it or not men are today divided into two camps. The one fights, hy word and hy ex ample, against thu useless custom of drinking poison; the others, by word and example, are equally the defend ers of tiie poison." You elect to put yourself into the latter camp, and certainly some of your cofighterk are there because they lovfe to drina the poison ami others of them are thcro because they make money by selling it. Now, when appetite and greed try "to art'ue against truth and right eousness, they are sure to say foolish say foolish things they find other people laughing at them. When a mun who takes himself seriously secs other people laughing at him, he feels qeeer. I wonder if some of your friends of the local option league Jo not begin to feel that way now! Self-interest, whether in the form at appetite or greed, ia a subtle snake and it slips in and out of an argu ment often without being seen. Jus tice is pictured blind, for only so can she hold the scales even. Now my awn fear ls that in this debate about prohibition we have the old struggle [>f interests against ideas, and I re mind you of a great word by Castelar: 'Tiie history of humanity is that of a standing battle between interests and Ideas. For thc moment the interests ilways win; but in the long run the Ideas." In so far as the votes of tho Local Option league und its friends are iictated by personal Interest, they ire open to an appeal on tho score af public spirit. A man of public spirit ia a man who cheerfully sacri fices poraonal interest for the public's ;ood. A man without public sp Lit, s a man who sacrifices the public'.) ;ood for private interest. As a man if public spirit you, air, agree with ne that men who aro willing to dc lauch the public conscience for the lake of personal pleasure or private ;ain, that men who would bribe the :ommucdty to do evil and deluge lt with wickedness for the pleasure of Irinklng alcohol or of lining their lockets by selling it, deserve nothing letter than to bo pilloried in the con empt of all good men. E. M. Potent, Greenville, September 7. LIQ U OD AND CBlHtO ?Jd'-tor of Tho People:- . A f-iw days ago a loyal and worthy dtizen of our county, seeking for in ormatlon to enable him to vote intel Igently and for the good of hie coun ry at the ensuing election on the luestlon of prohibition, asked me if here was any difference In the mint ier of criminal cases, and particular y murder cases, in dispensary coun lea and coijntles .where there are no lispeusaries aid what the difference vas, lt any. I could not answer lim thon, but since have obtained the leslrcd information and beg that yon lubllsh it for the benefit of tbose who vish to know. The attorney gen ral's report for IOU shows tho nura 1er of murder cases disposed of as' Dhows: 1st circuit, 24 cases; 2nd circuit, (16 ases; 3rd circuit. 21 cases; 1th clr uit 23 cases; 6th circuit, 16 cases; th circuit, 24 cases; 7th circuit, 33 ases; 8th cirouit, 33 cases; ft th cir ult, 26 cases, 10th circuit, 30 cases; 1th circuit, 17 cases; 12th circuit, 3 cases; 13th circuit, 2.2 cases; tomi 84 cases. Now, we are in the 2nd circuit, con lstlng of the counties of Aiken, Barn rell, Damnera; and Hampton, and the bree first named are dispensary ountlcs. So we lead- all the other irculta In the a tate wt! li 66 cases, "rom thia record it appears that omethiog should be done. \ Geo. H. Bates. Crap Condition Good.

Columbia, Sept. 10.-'Fred H. Dominick, assistant attorney general, authorized thu statement today that he ls a candidate for congress from the third district and will make tb? race for the democratic nomination next summer in the primaries. Mr. Dominick has served his native coun ty of Newberry in the general as sembly, served sovaral termu as coun ty chairman of Newberry county. Last year he ran for; congress in tito third district and was in the second raco with Congressman Wyatt Aiken. He is well known in tito district and is waging an active canvass. Henry C. Tillman of Greenwood, son of United States Senator B. ll . Tillman, said this morning that he was in the race for congress from the third district. Mr. Tillman is1 a mem ber of tho Greenwood . ?har and has represented his county several timos In the Democratic State conventions. He is a member of the board of par dons. Congressman Wyatt Aiken, who has served the third district several terms, will undoubtedly run for re election. It ls thought that there may be other candidates in tho race and that a warm fight is tn progress for the remocratio nomination in tho third in 1916. CHARLES LOGAN GUILTY MURDER OF AGED WOMAN (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE.) locked up by another negro on the placo and kept all night. On the wholo there was little testi mony against the negroes other than Logun and the verdict of guilty as to him and not guilty as to the others was generally approved by those who followed the case. There was no hint in the testimony that anyoone (hired lurgan to commit tho offense, it was apparent that his real motlv)e was tho commission of a more serious crime and that his nerve failed when he killed the old lady. Logan will be sentenced tomorrow to the electric chair by Judge Gary, the other negroes have been discharg ed. Given Military Honors. Geneva, Sept. 10.-Two.
