If Senator Eailey ever thought he could do Sena'or Tillman'B thinking for him but he knows better now. There are mir.y wrong ways of do ing; a right tl ing, but there is no right way of d- d ag a wrong thing. We garnish the graves of the dead with flowers, uid that is well. But better still is ! t to strew some along the pathway o: the living. Always remember that life is not counted by mcnoy or by position one may -hold in a ay business or society, but by charact >: and service. The Democrats and Insurgent Re-j publicans by passing the wool bill j put President ^aft in a deep hole. If he signs tie bill he will have to fight his own party, and if he does not sign It, (he will have to fight the people. The Smith amlly Is doing its du ty by Congress s.nd now ha? nine men bearing that name, out of the 480 members of loth branches of Con gress. The :av.est addition to the Smiths is Senator Hoke Smith, of Georgia, who will rank in intellect as well as sizi with, the biggest men in the Senate Senator Goi 3 summarized the gen eral Democrat c atttude in this wise: "I am as willi ii; to progress with the standpatters vlien they progress as I am unwillln : to stand pat with the insurgents wh 2n hey for the moment stand pat." In other words he is willing to vo:e with- ?Ither faction .to help the pscple. , Dr. Thrope retiring president of the National Dantal Association, de clares that ''Dentist who put gold filling in froi t teeth are hobo den ists and peoj ?!?? who allow dentists to violate the lawn of ethics in such a manner are without good taste and culbure." "tf bat has tJhe dentists generally to s \y to that. fThe Charlotte Observer on "Wed nesday issue 1 an "Interurban Edi tion of one hundred pages, adver tising Charit tto and the towns in North and South Carolina through which the li torurban railway being built by Duk'fS passes. It was one of the best spe-iul editions of a news paper we have ever seen. Ever sine > Dr. Wiley, began his long war on the "food poisoners and adulterators that finally resulted in creating In ta<a country a "pure food food conscit nee," the big business interests of the country have de manded his scalp and boasted that they would iltlmately get it, but we believje that they are going to fail this time. Rain must be badly needed at Charlotte. The Observer of that city says "some o" our oldest inhabitants claim hat they can remember when a regular ip-snorting, gully-wash ing rain fel In this section. Others have a fair t recollection of a gen tle drazzle. Us youngsters grin in credulously, recalling that man is made out o dust." We are premised that the different department? of fedetral goernment are to be c mducted on a more bus iness like tails wih a way to great er efficiency and economy. Most peo ple will thin* it high time and can probably p>int out many ways in wlhich the n?w method may be ap plied wih b Miefit to the public which has to pay be bills. Savoyarc" says no man in all the history of the United States Senate has so rap dly come to the front as a leader ol that body as John Sharp W?liiaims. In one week after he took his si at ihe squelched Heyburn and showe'i Bailey that he, after all, was only s mortal. The best of all, there is n > crookedness about Wil liams brard of Democracy. Senator Gore believes in voting that favor; reform. Being taunted with following the leadership of Pen rose, of P' nnslyvanla, the blind sen ator from Oklahoma, rejoined that, in order t( reduce the price of bread, it was nc-?essary to cooperate with with Pennsylvania and Massachu setts w.hib to accomplish a like result with clothing the alliance was neces ary with Ijwa and Wisconsin. The R.tehmond Virginian thinks that not (nly is there no occasion for worry over' "nesrro domination" in the Soutt but that there never was. The Charlotte Observer agrees that there net d never have been any oc casion fcr worry over the ultimate outcome. Bmt there was bound to be ti good d sal of worry while the con test, wit i the federal government ^vnd the war-horn constitutional amendments as the real opponent, was actu illy on. Senator Tillman's Position. Senator Tillman and Senator Bai ley, who have frequently voted the same way on important questions, when it came to the Canadian Rec iprocity Bill. Senator Tillman vot ed fox it while Senator Bailey voted against it. Senator Tillman during his absence from the special session has a general pair on all party ques tions with. Senator Dillingham, Re publican, of Vermont, and his vote therefore counts as if he were pres ent. Under the rule of the Senate in reference to pairs upon any question upon which Senators Dillingham and Tillmiam are agreed, Senator Dil lingham would have the privilege of voting, thus disregarding the pair, in order that his vote may count, and this was the case with regard to amendments to the reciprocity bill, as ds disclosed by an extract from the Cau^resslonal Record of July 22nd, the vote being upon the amendment offered by Senator McCumber to the Canadian Reciprocity Bill. When the name of Senator Dill rngham was called he said: I have a general pair with the senior Senator from South Carolina (Mr. Tillman). I am informed that in respect of all amendments to this bill he would vote 'nay.' I am therefore at liberty to do the same. I make this announcement for the day as relat ing to all amendments to the bill." This was evidently a surprise to Senator Bailey, who said "if the sen ator from! Vermont does not object, I should like to have him incorporate in the Record upon whose authority It is that he makes the statement ias the attitude of the Senator from South Carolina. " Senator Dfllingham replied that he made the statement on the au thority of Senator Bacon, of Georgia, to whom he said he was referred by Senator Tillman in a letter. Senator Bailey, was evidently sur prised as he seems to have been un der the Impression that Senator Till man would vote as hedid on this Important measure, but it seems that Senator Tillman had given his views to Senator Bacon and was recorded for the bill. When It came to a fi nal passage of the bill Senator Dil lingham, who opposed the bill, re spected the general pair with Sena tor Tillman by declining to vote. Result of Straw Ballot. Desirous of testing the sentiment of the country respecting the choice of a president next year, The World's Work asked 2,415 of its subscribers to mark a ballot haing the names of possible candidates. The 2,415 names were divided among the sev eral States in exact proportion to the electoral vote of each State?five times as many ballots being sent to each State as it possesses electoral votes. The names were drawn, a State at a time, at random, by clerks Ignorant of the purpose, from the subscription files of the magazine. And here is the result: Woodrow Wilson.519 William H. Taft. . .402 Theodore Roosevelt..274 Judson A. Harmon... 96 Robt. M. LaFollette. . .. . . .. 91 Champ Clark.. .. .. 1.45 Willdam J. Bryan.34 Albert Cummins.17 The Columbia Record says at least one feature of "The World's Work's census is strikingly Impor tant. Of the total number of votes, 519, received by Governor Wilson in this ballot, 145 were caBt by Republi cans and 22 by Independents. Which is to say that of the Democratic pcs- j sibilities, Governor Wilson makes the strongest appeal to the Independent ly inclined Republicans and the straightout Independents. "This coticlueion drawn from the ballot taken 'by the World's Work is confirmed by every other observa tion. A Columbia visitor to Atlan tic City, recently returned, reported that several Republican voters, from as many different States, who were met up with there, declared their in tention of supporting Governor W'il son should he be nominated. Oth erwise they will vote the Republi can ticket. "Governor Wilsou himself has said that in his travels to different parts of the country the most impressive fact noted is the breakirg away from party ties and the dlspo ition to sup port progressive meas ires, regard less of what party label they do or do not bear. It is because Governor Wilson stands so consplculously be fore the people as a (progressive staesman that the trend of sentiment is in his direction." ? South Getting Whiter. The Progressive Farmer rejoices to find from an analysis of census returns that the rural South is rap idly growing whiter and that the white population of the whole South is increasing almost exactly twice as fast as that of the negro popula tion. "Even from a selfish stand point," it comments, "we realize that ?be best interests of the whole South demand that the negro be made moio intelligent, efficient and prosperous. But at the best this process will be slow; and the proportion of negroes to whites in the South has been too large even for the ne:rro's own good." As the Charlotte Observer says, in some parts of the South especially. Too large a proportion of negroes anywhere tends to make race rela tions tense, to deprive the white man of free action and the negro of that full measure of inspiration and ex ample which contact with the white man should afford. Under such cir cumstances lawlessness thrives and all the standards of civic life are more or less debased. Senator Tillman's Reception. The Columbia State says: "The re election of Senator Tillman next year without opposition is easily within the range of possibility, but if the event should take place, no false significance should he attached to it. Tt would not mean that the Senator has come to be a general favorite, that sometime opponents have changed to admirers and that he has won his way into the affec tions of all the people. Rather it would mean a reluctance to antago nize an aged man, whose passionate craving to hold on to bis conspicuous position in public life is far stronger than anybody's disposition to put him out." We think the Stato is mistaken in what it says above. At least, that is our idea, based on what we have seen and heard in he last few years. There are many people in this community who were once bitter opponents of Senator Tillman, who are now Ms friends and- would regret to see him leave the Senate. On his recent visit to Orangeburg: Senator Tillman was called on by about as many old time anti-Till manites as Tillmanites, which shows hows he stands now with those who used to oppose :him. With few ex ceptions everyone wants Senator Tillman re-elected. Sheliff Sale. State of South Carolina, County of Orangeburg. In court of common pleas. W. B.
