FRIDAY, MARCH liH. ll)l:l.
Summer is coming on apace.
Aren't you glad to see it?
How about dragging the
roads. Messrs. county officials?
Postmaster General Burleson
is trying to solve the problem
of how to put 131,530 office

The terrible destruction of
life and property out West from
hurricanes and floods should
make us all mighty thankful
that we are not disturbed by
them.
Something like 00 per cent of
the states of the Union have enacted
compulsory education
'aws. How long will South
Carolina be content to remain
in the 10 per cent class?
The Yorkville Enquirer in its
last issue says "The South Carolina
delegation in Congress is
backing Congressman D. E.
Finley for chairman of the
Democratic congressional committee."
Yes, we all know this,
but is The Enquirer doing the
same thing?
The new national income tax
law will not affect editors and
"niggers" as Editor Connors
was wont to say.
The Anderson Mail thinks it
was wrong for Senator Tillman
to be cheated "as was done."
When did The Mail ever know

anything?
The new Democratic administration
is not responsible for
the weather we have been having
since its advent into power.
It is simply the aftermath of
Republicanism.
We are glad to note that
Governor Blease is taking
stringent steps to enforce the
law against blind tigers. A
special dispatch to The Green- i
ville I'iedmont quotes him as
saying that he was "preparing
to enforce the Webb law against
shipments of liquor into dry
states to the letter" and that
he had written letters to the
sheriffs of Charleston and Richland
and other counties calling1
*on them to enforce the law
against illeg: i whiskey dealers.
It is thought that Senator?
Tillman and Smith may not be
able to agree upon a man to
recommend lor appointment as
United States district attorney
for South Carolina and in that
event it has been suggested bv
a numnor 01 >outn ( aroiina papers
that ex-Attornev General j
J. Fraser I.von might be the
compromise candidate. This
would he a ; -?st happy solution
of the matter and would meet
with the wishes of the great
majority of the peace-loving.,
non-political portion of the peo-!
pie of our state. And it would
be no experiment in appointing
General Lyon to this important
post. He has shown what a
conscientious lawyer can do as
attorney general of the state
and we know that if he should
be appointed he would be second
to none of Uncle Sam's district
attorneys.

ATTACK ON FOREIGN MIS- W

The whole article abounds in came one

was all about the same old question
as to how to. regulate the ??

Mr. Wilson is strongly inop- I

ADRIANOPLE SUCCUMBS.
Adrianople, the Turkish
stronghold, which has been besieged
by the Balkan allies since
early in October, capitulated
Wednesday. The stubborn resistance
of the Turks was something
like that of the Russians bugL
when the Japanese were be- jjl(. (

likely now that peace will he de- next

the great powers of Kurope

peaceable methods, put an end
to the disgraceful practices of ;ui,l
