If Gen. Fred Funston is turned )
loose in Mexico, we predict that he 1

he did Aguinaldo in the Philippines.
I
President Wilson and Secretary of i
State Bryan have put a quietus on 11
the rumors put in circulation that,
Mr. Bryan intended resigning from
the cabinet. The wish was prohnblv
father to the thought with the circulators
of these reports.
Mr. Dominiek has not started out
auspiciously in his race for Con- '
gross to defeat Wyatt Aiken, when
he fails of election by his precinct
club at Newberry to the county convention.
Condolence to The Newberry
Her-ld and News. .
If the governors of tfi# chamber
of commerce do not soon get together
and start something, we will
be force to the conculsioiv that they
are about on a par with tne governor
of the state in the mattef of doing
something for the good of^the community.
&
South Carolina has reaihj^ to be
proud of the work of dpi, K. J.
Watson, commissioner of afsagrleulture,
and his election as proMen^ of
the National Drainage Cojbf-ss is
most gratifying to his fl^nirOV*s.
Constructive work like C0I09H Watson's
should be recognized ljj3d appreciated
at home, as well as jSbroad.

There is a widespread belief all

regulations governing the Denio ratic
primary elections do not ad- Special
jquately safeguard them from irreg- lilac
ularities and fraud, and this belief o'clock
is justified by the facts. Thousands Donald

election, and the practice has been ^"unnln
for anybody to add any name.s he ma'('s'

attach his own name, either in writ- wear'n
ing or by making his mark, and no crePe *

than once upon a club roll. From.
1892 to 1910 the vote in the |>rinTary P'n^? 1
increased from 87,500 to 107,000.
For eighteen years tlie Increase was med '
10,500, something more than 1,000

suddenly increased from 107.000 to n,ed
something like 140,000, in round I Jo,,n 7
numbers 33,000, or. in other words. M,ss J
for these two years alone, the In- ,)rJde'
reuse was about 13,000 more than mec' ,n
