Charleston's mayor has decided to

A Georgia man owns a thirty-dol

would not lake $1,000. Needless to
say he is not a newspaper man.
The "Lily White" contingent of the

easier to decide who to endorse after

If all members of the Ananias Club
could be induced to vote against the

W. G. Child*.
In the death of W. G. Childs at
Columbia, Thursday his city and the
State generally lost a friend whose
value was inestimable. Possessed of
an infinitely sympathetic nature, Mr.
Childs' largess was proverbial and
rnonv hpflrts will hnlrl hi? mpmorv
dear for timely advice and assistance
in the hour of need. As bank presi
dent and railroad executive his trans
acions were ever conducted upon a
plane of strict integrity and with due
regard to the rights of others. South
Carolina is poorer by reason of his
death.
Hon. John Sharp Williams of Miss
issippi, in the course of a speech in
the United States Senate recently,
was guilty of a flagrant violation of
the proprieties of expression?of
which he has heretofore been so able
an exponet,?by making use of the
following parody on the apostles
creed; for which he has received the
well merited condemnation of press
and pulpit:
"I believe in Theodore Roosevelt,
maker of noise and strife, and in Am
bition, His only creed (my Lord.)
He was born of love and suffered
under William H. Taft, was crucified,
dead and buried. He decended into 1
Africa. The third year he rose again
from the jungles, and ascended into
favor, and sifcteth on the right hand
of his party, whence he shall come to (
scourge the licked and the dead. ,
"I believe in the Outlook, the Big I
Stick, the Ananias Club, the forgive- <
ness of political activity, the resurrec- '
tion of Presidential ambitions and
third term everlasting. Amen,
Amen, Amen." *
To ft Mart Up a TVie.
While we would not presume to
suggest to Judge Jones' active friends
throughout the state a course of con
duct in the approaching campaign,
we may comment on an existing sit
uation, or what appears to us to be
such.
Undoubtedly in the recent club
elections Judge Jones has been victo
rious, and he will have things his
own way in the state convention.
This may or may not indicate much
as to the popular vote. Much will
depend on the moderation with
which that convention acts.
Governor Blease's main element of
strength lies in his ability to revive
in some measure the factional feeling
of 1890 and 1892. Judge Jones' suc
cess depends on a serious split in the
old reform ranks. There be men of
the old reform (action who do uot
endorse Governor Blease and who
would see him defeated, but they
doubt the wisdom of trying to do it
in convention with a majority who
in factional days were on the other
side. Judge Jones' chances for suc
cess lie along the silent way. It
would seem to a man up a tree that
r.hp lpnnt noise or antagonism is in
gendered in his behalf will be for the
l)est. He is opposing a past master
in the art of agitation, his hope lies
in not allowing offense to be given to
the silent vote.
Jf Judge Jones' friends are wliolly
sure of their ground, they may pro
ceed through the State Convention
with steam roller tactics, but they
should be sure of their footing. Pop
ular sentiment is easily inflamable
and the popular mind very suspic
ious. If some people should take it
into their heads that the scenes of
1890 and 1892 are to be re-enacted
with different casts, the result would
probably not be materially different
from the result in the elections for
those years.

with being doesn't count in aparti
zan fight. Once a champion' is se
lected and the fight is on, the merits
or demerits of the leader are lost
sight of.
While it doesn't make much dif
ference who makes up a delegation
that acts wisely, the personel of a
delegation or of a convention will be
closely scrutinized if mistakes are
made.
For Underwood.
A majority of the delegates elected
from Abbeville County to the State
Convention favor Wilson's nomina
tion. Some of the delegate* are ver\
pruuuuuutu iui uiiutrwtHJU. xin",
to our mind, does not fairly repre
sent the popular sentiment of the
county, though our guess is worth no
more than that oi any other man.
While we favor Underwood next to
Harmon as being the strongest can
didate, we will have no quarrel with
the Wilson men if they do not vote
to tie the hands of the delegation
from South Carolina to Baltimore.
Now more than ever in the history
of Democracy is it important to ex
change views on the phases of
strength of the various candidates.
T-*T i. 11 .^1 i.1 '.? *
we warn uie strongest, me cieauest,
the roost popular man, and if he is
fairly selected, after a thorough can
vas of conditions surrounding the ap
proaching election, all democrats and
some former republicans will fall in
line.
Some one has said that we had as
well send our vote in a registered let
ter to Baltimore as in the hands of
an instructed delegation; and this is
a blunt way of expressing a truth.
Of course if delegates had behind
them the warrant of a primary de
claring for a candidate, they could
but carry out instructions. But if the
State Convention will select men of
undoubted political integrity and
men of good judgment as delegates
to Baltimore and leave them un
trammelled, they will act for the best
intprpst nf the Sfwift and f hp nnrtv
For instance, snppose the Republi
can party, which meets first, should
nominate Roosevelt. Roosevelt rep
resents the extreme progressive idea
in the Republican party. Then
it would be suicidal to put up Wilson
who is ultra progressive in the Demo
cratic party. On the other hand if
the Republican party should take up
Taft, Wilson's nomination would
make strong appeal to the progres
sive wing of the Republican party.
Again, suppose the tariff is made
the main issue in the Reduplican
platform. Isn't it just possible that
the man, above all others, who has
brought the Democratic party prom
inently before the people as the tariff
reform party, the present democratic
leader in Congress will be considered?

TILLMAN TO RUN;
WILL NOT SPEAK
Senator Asks Reelection by
South Carolina Voters.
THANKS FOR PAST SUPPORT
Expresses Gratitude for Confidence and
Love That Have Been Given Him
Burins His Three Terms
The 8tate has received from B. R. Till
man, senior senator from South Carolina,
an address to the people of 8out;h Carolina,
In which Mr. Tillman announces his deter
mination to stick in the senatorial race but
not to make any speeches. By advice of
his doctors, he says, he will not take the
stump. The senator asks that the poople
continue to support him.
In conclusion, he asks that the people
do not displace him by voting him out,
but that in some way they will indicate a
wish that he retire on account of physical
infirmities, if such be the casf:.
The senator's address to the people fol
lows:
To the People of South Carolina:
Twenty-two years ago I asked you to
elect me to the office of governor. You
did it, after a very hot campaign in which
I spoke in every county of the State. Two
years later I ask for reeleotion. You
gave me the offlco the second time by an
overwh olming vote. After four years of
service in the governor's office, I asked
you to send me to the senate, and again,
after a heated canvass, you placed me in
the office I now hold.
I have held this office for neaaly 18
years, and I am asking you to reelect me
to it, although my health is broken and I
am no longer the strong and vigorous man
I once was. I have a ripe experience and
thorough knowledge of tne working of the
government, and have many warm per
sonal friends in the departments and in
both branches of congress.
I came to the senate in a cloud of ob
loquy on account of the newspaper abuse
at home. 1 have fought my way in spite
of it and have lived to see most of the
newspaper men in the press gallery my
friends. v
HAS GAINED POSITION.
By long service and hard work, I have
won an enviable position in Washington,
and the State is entitled to whatever bene
fit I have in places on the committees
which can only be obtained by such ser
vice.
I have flattered no man and feared no
man in debate, and I have a strong desire
to "die in harness," for sentimental rea
sons only. ,
i have do woras insi can exprusts my ap
preciation and gratitude for the confi
dence and love you have given me In all
these years. If I did not feel that my ex
perience and .intilmate acquaintance with
public affairs will enable me to give ac
ceptable service in the future, I would not
ask reeleoton at your hands, but content
myself with the full measure of the hon
ors you have given me already.
When I first came Into public life, I met
a storm of opposition, which was very
bitter and intense. It required intense
and aggressive action to overcome it; and
belntr combative by nature, I fought with
all my might for those things I thought
was right, and I won because you approv
ed my policies, my utterences and my ac
tions.
Amid this exciting contest, many things
were said and done on both sides that, per
haps, had better been left unsaid and un
done. Men are but human, Jand when tir
ed by strong conviction, they speak and
do things whlen they afterward regret.
As God is my Judge, I never said any
thing but truth, or did anything as Gov
ernor or senator, I did uot believe to be
for the public welfare. As I look back
over my|career, I can see mistakes and
hlnnrtara nlAnt.v nf t.hftni. hut. thfiv wfirp
honest blunders, and I have never permit
ted selfish ambition or petty revenge to
control my actions, I have tried to be sen
ator of all the people, as I was governor of
the whole State and my ambition had
been in the senate, to give tho people the
best service of which I was capable.
WONT TAKE STUMP.
Owing to my poor health and in accord
ance with the advise of my physician. I
shall not make any speeches during the
canvass this summer. All of the old men
In the State have already heard me speak,
and If ther? ar? anv vounc on?H who>have
not and desire It, I shall take pleasure In
mailing such pamphlet copies of some of
my best speeches which I have yet on
hand. Nothing would delight me more
than to be able once again to 9ee my old
friends facefto face, and it saddens me to
think that I shall never have this pleas
ure again.
I shall hope that the people of South
Carolina will not displace me by voting me
out, but that In some way will indicate a
wish for me to retire from thla position
because of your belief that I am no longer
physically capable of performing the du
ties of the office. The senatorshlp has al
ways been regarded by me as a sacred
trust, and if I knew you wanted me to
surrender it, I would gladly lay it down,
cocscious that I have done my duty al
ways to the best of my abliy.

COOPERATION of CITIZENS ASKED

Urging Attendance During Month of

There will be held In Columbia from Jan

Agricultural Exposition, under the au

OpiV/CO Vi W1V i.iwi/.v?w? ?
exposition will be Nation-wide in its slope
and will attract people from all over the
country?Men and women who are leaders
in their respective Communities,
It is desired by those in chargo of
the exposition to make this oc
casion a hjme-c.ming time for those
South Carolinians who have wandered
away from their own fireside. South Car
olina, by permitting much of her best
young blood to leave her borders has con
tributed largely to the material up-build
ing of other States. It is hoped by mak
ing a special attraction of the home-com
ing feature of the corn exposition to have
these former Carolinians renewitheir home
ties, in the hope that they may be induced
to return to their native heath and contri
bute of their means and energies to the up
building of their native State. With this
eud in view, the mayor of every munici
pality has been requesting the home folks
to write their absent ones, urging then
attendance upon this great exposition.
*' In accordance with this request Mayor
Gambrell has issued a proclimation, call
ing upon the people of Abbeville to assist
in this movement. The proclimation is
published in this issue of The Press and
Banner, and it is hoped that the citixen of
Abbeville will generally take hold of the
movement and help make it successful.
W. G. CHILDS PASSES
INTO GREAT BEYOND
Prominent Banker and Railroad
President Died Suddenly in
Columbia Thursday?Man
of Many Lovable Traits.
Columkla, S. C., May 2.?Mr. William G.
Child8. aged 61 years, died Thursday mor
ning at his home 2302 Taylor street, in this
city after an illness of a few hours. At 5
o'clock he was taken suddenly ill with
acute indigestion and the attendidg physi
cians realized that Mr. Childs was an ex
tremely ill man. At 11:30 o'clock MrChilds
passed away, and the news of his death
proved a severe ?hock to the hundreds of
friends and aequainlances throughout the
city and the State.
Mr. Childs was prominent in business
circles, being president of the Bank of
Columbia, Newberry & Laurens railway,
vice president of the Columbia Land and
Improvement Company and the Columbia
Clearing House association, He performed
nianv acts of charity in a ouiet wav that
was characteristic of the man.
Mr. Childs was a native of Lincolnton,
N. C. The father came to Columbia in
18(il and Mr. W. G. Childs was practically
a Columbia reared man.
The following children survive:. Mrs. D.
W. Robinson- Mrs 0. Frank Hart, Mrs. J.
M. Cantey, Mrs. C. Preston Seabrook,
Mrs. J. B. Urquhart. Misses Eugenia and
Ellen Childs and Robert Childs. One
brother Mr, .D. A. Childs, also survives.
Another brother, Mr. Eban Chiids, was
killed in the battle of Chlcamauga during
the War between the Sections. Mr. L. D
Childs, another brother^died 10 years ago
in oaiuua.
Mr. Childs was a Mason and Knight
Tom pier.
In addition to his railroad and banking
business, Mr. Childs engaged actively in
farming.
We would like to call the attention
of our readers to the communication
of Mr. J. R Blake in this issue. The
idea there suggested of a memorial
fund for the families of the musicians
who with such signal bravery met
their death on the ill-fated Titanic is
one worthy of consideration. For
the time being the heroism of these
humble men seems to have been
overlooked, and we are pleased to
see Mr. Blake has seen fit to draw the
public's attention to it. It is to be
hoped that his suggestion will bear
immediate fruit.

Correspondent Writes of Virtues
Titanic Band
To the Editor of the State:
The world Is familiar with the pathetic
story of the appalling disaster which re
cently befell the Titantic, that floating pal
ace of the sea.
We have heard of the heroic courage of
Aster, the multi-millionair, as he calmly
and confidently awaited awatery grave:
of the composure of Archibald Butt, who
assisted in placing the women and children
in lifeboats, saying, with a smile, as they
launched away, "Luck is with you, re
member me to my friends in the homeland/
History furnishes no greater example of
woman's love and fidelity to man than
that of Mrs. Straus, who chose rather to
die in the arms of her husband, than to
seek safety in which he could not share.
Prosperity will revere their memories and
honor their names.
But, Mr. Editor, is another class of

but little, yet whose loyalty to duty iu the
face of death challenges our admiration*
I refer to the band of musicians. To my
mind there is nothing that shines out so
brightly in that dark picture of tragedy
|-han their moral courage and subline hero
sm. They also had loved ones in distant
ands; they, too, soon would step into eter
nity. Why did they stand each man at his
post, aiding by his riusic the courage o'
those who preformed heroic deeds, and
comfortiuglterror-stricken women and chil
dren? Was it for fame or money re
ward? No, at that hour, as in the dying
hours of every soul, these were valueless.
These men wore not seen seoking lifeboats,
or over come by their own extremity, bu^
facing death, they were loyal to duty. Is
there in history such a display of self-sac
rifice and sublime heroism as exhibited by
by them? Till their graves closed over
them, they served humanity. Souls were
poing terror stricken to their final reward,
with their loved ones many miles away in
many lands. Who sought to cheer them
or to give them spiritual comfort? These
men were their comforters; tlioy played
their accustomed music to allay the excite
ment of the passengers upon the fast sink
ing vessel; but as the shores of eternity j

in its dread embrace, like ministering an
gels, our heroes of the musical world play
ad "Nearer My God to Thee," censing not
their music till they joined the "chior in
visible." Some in the lifeboats tried to
ioiu their voices with the notes wafted from
the sinking vessel, but grief and terror si-:
[ienced every tonguo.
Many centuries ago music assumed its
sublimest task as angels sang to a doom
ed world "Peace, Good Will to Men'" an
nouncing the birth of the Savior; and now
again those heroes in a measure duplicated
by their music the task which lias been
committed formerly to angels, by seeking
to bring comfort to dying souls and to
point them to God.
Can not the musical world, joined by all
lovers of heroism, create a memorial fund*
to be dispensed regularly to the dependents <
