Secretary Housi * Columbia State. the Thousands of South Carolinians plu read, doubtless with Interest, Frank ^ O. Carpenter's sketch of David F. Houston, secretary of agriculture and j8 j member of President Wilson's cabl- wl net, identified with their state in his 'nsl boyhood and early manhood. In The State recently, and, we hope, took to p?? heart what the secretary said. f The improvement of the health of j1.00' the people and especially of the coun- f ] try people Is what Mr. Houston de- ! Blres. He thinks that the advances . in the science of sanitation charac- " teristic of the towns should be ex- ,a* tended to the country districts. If boards of health reduce the typhoid mortality in the cities, boards of "* health should protect the people In H|e the country, the The extermination of a farmer's con family through the contamination of * a well, which sometimes happens In South Carolina, may be prevented. tur' Secretary Houston thinks that It should be prevented. He believes, the too, that all rural schools should his have medical Inspection?he thinks 1 that the poor boy and the poor girl the should be looked after by competent Th< physicians. He does not believe that no the state should waste money on the int< schooling of children suffering from Th? diseases easily prevented or cured, ula which stand In the way of the child's phj progress and at the same time menace the the healthy child. gee Now this distinguished secretary to of agriculture and educator, within r. the memory of some of us, was him- the self a poor boy fighting for an educa- lan tlon here in South Carolina, at the ?t University. It Is the exceptional boy thr In this state now whose chance to ob- by tain a college education la not as poc god as his was?however It is also tha Candidates and the Main Issue? Columbia State. N. The honest conduct of primary 1 eltctlons Is the overshadowing issue Ka In South Carolina. the Until the state can be assured of cla falr elections, discussion of other Is- the sues Is waste of time. Without hon- a ' est elections, no Issue can be settled, hai No other state of our republic and 'nt( no state in the civilized world under- tn8 takes to choose a government by an tin election In which any many can vote, rig provided his skin Is white, and may me vote often, If he be so disposed, with mo practically no danger of punishment. y?l In one congressional district mon- ?' ey has been not less freely used for ha^ corrupting elections than In Adams ren county, Ohio, and In other localities Pei whose conditions have been exposed dot as national scandals. fiaT Primary election conditions In da' South Carolina are as disgraceful as are any that have existed anywhere In of the United States. Are the people P^a content with them? Between 1892 and 1910, the prl- wa mary vote Increased from 87,500 to 110,000?about 22.500 In eighteen ,nc years. In the next two years, it In- ,nc creased to 140,000. An increase of Pla 30.000 In two years! vls The people have been warned that ta^ the primary can not survive unless or there shall be amendment. eaT Within les than a year we shall ta^ have an election for governor, United sel States senator and various important state officers, legislators and tw< county officers. ma For the greater offices a dozen or erl; more candidates are announced. put Some of them already are delivering of speeches. Kla What candidate Is identified with the main issue? Is there one able Ka enough and bold enough to under- the take to say the primary election sys- tha tem? That is the issue?shall the wh primary survive? be Or, if the election system shall be of purged and the primary saved, shall the the work be done by privates in the ranks, while the men calling themselves leaders hide away from the Ne firing line? Shall the people give the rewards Im to men who talk most about them- tui selves, who are "good follows," "nice erj gentlemen," rapid handshakers and i dexterous throwers of bouquets? | gle Shall our leaders be men who pai know no more than to "follow the wil crowd?" I of Already "the woods are full" of am candidates. Not since 1876 was the | need for political guidance and lead- th? ershlp in South Carolina so dire as pr< It is now. Is there not some man who repre- sui sents something more than himself, no his amiable qualities, his personal ed good behavior and the affection of a circle of personal friends? wp, Is there any honest man in South Carolina, unwilling to use money corruptly or for his friends to use it corruptly In his behalf, and unwlll- _ insr to be tha beneflciarv of fraudu- . lent votes, who believes that he has the slightest chance of success in a state primary ps state primaries are now conducted in South Carolina? an stc He Was Mad.
