"Let reverence for laws be
breather by every American
mother to the lisping babe that
prattles on her lap; let it be
taught in schools, 1 1 seminaries
and colleges; let it be written
in primers, snelling books and
almanacs; let it be preached
from the pulpit, proclaimed In
legislative halls, and enforced In
courts of Just'ce. And In short,
let It become the poltical religion
of the nation; and let the
old and the young, the rich and
Fth - poor, the grave and the gay
of all sexes and tongues and
I colors and conditions, sacrifice
unceasingly upon its alt-ars."

go after it. Will you?

THE MEKTTIXCi AT YOltK
Time and space forbids the mention,
of every phase of the meeting of the
South Carolina Press Association,
held last week in York, the very
name of which town is synonymous
with hospitality.
The session opened with a formal
welcome by Mayor Wilborn and response
by William Banks, editor of
The Columbia Record, who is president
of the association. The same
< vening J. C. .McAulifft, business
manager of the Augusta Chronicle,
the Sooth's oldest newspaper, made
an address. The next day. Thursday,
was given over to a delightful outing,
which included a motor trip to King's
Mountain battleground, a ^lop at Liu
wood College, where the good women
of York served a feast long t?
remembered by all who partook of its
lavish bounty, and terminated at naslonia.
At the battleground, where the
crisis of the Revolution was reached,
the government lias erected a fitting
monument, which has i>eon given into
the keeping of the York chapter
D. A U. Near this mountain is a
pavilion and here the editors and
their hosts and hostess's gathered to
her the historical address bv Pn|
Rion MeKissick. who charmed his
mdience with a masterly sketch, embodying
the very -pinf of the *trn?rih>
for independence.
A brilliant reception was given bv
1 White Rose club Thursday evening.
at which time the visitors had
the pleasure of knowing better the
people who entertained them so
loyally. The business session consumed
the whole of Friday with the
exception of an afternoon reception
for the visiting women at one of
York's handsomest homes. The
crowning event of the day and a splcn
did climax to (tie most enjoyable
meeting we have e ver attended was
(ho scholarly address deliveied FrL
day "\ening by P> Talcott Williams,
head of the T'ulitftcr School of
Journalism of Columbia Fni\'rsity.

full of good ideas, but few people
care to exploit them before the public.
And yet the exploitation of

improvement of local conditions.

"DUTY TO ACCEPT," SAYS HUGHES ^
Washington, June 10.?Justice Charles E. Ilughes this afternoon sent
this telegram to Chairman Harding of the Republican National Convention
in Chicago:
"Mr Chairman and Delegates:
"I have not desired the nomination I have wished to remain on the
bench. But in this critical period of our national history I recognize that
it is your right to summon and that it is my paramount duty to respond.
Von : k ut a time of national exigency transcending merely partisan
consideration.
"Von voice th>> demand for a dominant, thoroughgoing Americanism,
wit! firm. protective upbuilding policies essential to our peace and security
and to that call, in this i risis. 1 cannot fail to answer with the pledge of !
all that is in no to the service of our country. Therefore. 1 accept the ;
nomination.
"I stand for the firm and unflinching maintenance of all the rights of i
American citizens on land and sea.
"1 neither impugn nor uadert timatc difficulties. Hut it is most regret,
tably true that in our foreign relations we have suffered incaleiilably front
the weak and vacillating course which iias been taken with regard to
Mexico, a course lamentably wrong with regard to both our rights and
our duties.
"We interfered without consistency; and. while seeking to dictate when ,
we were not concerned, we utterly failed to appreciate and discharge our i
plain duty m our own citizens. At the outset of the Administration
the high responsibilities of our diplomatic intercourse with foreign nations
were subordinated to a conception of partisan requirements, and
presented to the world a humiliating spectacle of ineptitude.
"Related reports have not availed to recognize th0 influence and prestige
so unfortunately sacrificed; and brave words have been stripped of
their form by indecision. I desire to see our diplomacy restored to its
best standards, and to have these advanced: io have no sacrifices of national
interests to partisan expediency: to have the first ability of tho
country always at the command, hero and abroad, in diplomatic intercourse;
to maintain firmly oar rights under international law, insisting
steadfastly upon all our rights as nentra's. and fully performing our international
obligations and by the elear correctness and justice of our
pos'tlon and our manifest ability and disposition to sustain them, to dignify
our place among the nations.
"I stand for ah Americanism which knows no ulterior purpose: fov a i
patriotism nliich is single and comple*'>. Whether native or naturalized,
or wh t<-ver rare or creed vv? have but one country, and we do not for an
instant tolerate any division of allegiance.
"We must have the strength which self-respect demands, the strength
of an efficient nation ready for very i mergeney.
Our prennrntion must lie industrial and eeonomieal as well. Our severest
f< si will come after thr war is over. We must niak,. a fair and wise re- !
adjustment of the tariff in accordance with sound piotectfve principles, to '
'' sur, our economic indepepd "in and to maintain \m? riean standards of
