Anderson sent some of the biggest men in the State to Columbia at the organization of the State Chamber of Commerce. The repeal of the anti-duelling law might have a tendency to clarify the political atmosphere. The only thing that the Democrat ic party has to fear from the candi dacy of Col. Roosevelt fe that it will not materialize. Contrary to the general expectation 4Vwv??r\ koo Kirmn wa clnmn ill Knuinouw because of it being presidential elec tion year. Sounds strange to read about the, great suffering from heat in New York eity * hen our summer has so far been so pleasant. Just to keep in the fashion, theNa tional Prohibition party had to hold a "hot session" and then have a dead \ lock. We have not investigated the mat ter, but we suspect if the truth were known 'Woodrow Wilson once lived in Abbeville-. Senator Tillman wants the United State? to build the greatest battleship ever constructed and then take a rest from battleship building. It is reported from Washington that both Taft and Roosevelt will asked to withdraw from the race and allow the Republicans to concentrate upon a compromise candidate. It is hardly probable that this movement will gain much force. Abbeville was not represented at the State chamber of commerce. Perhaps the reason is to be found in the fact that Abbeville has no live Chamber of Commerce or similar or ganization. Is it not possible to rem edy this condition ? The Press and Banner will be glad to hear trom some ot our progressive citizens 011 this subject. Someone (just whom we cannot now recollect) in writing of another, spoke of him as possessing "the fire of a Carolinian with the poise of a Virginian." Which is applicable to our next president, who was born in Virginia and lived in Carolina long enough to acquire some of the fiery" traits which are supposed to be in herent in every son of the Palmetto State. Those interested in the success of the county fair this fall will be much gratified to hear of the success which has rewarded the work of the com mittee to whom was assigned the work of securing premiums. Many handsome and useful articles have been secured by the committee. Their appeals have met with the most cordial response on the part of the citizens generally and there will be some splendid premiums: to be ctvarded this fall. THE AUGUSTA HEARING. The testimony taken in Augusta by the legislative investigating com mittee, while startling in the charac ter of some of its disclosures, has laid no charge at the door of the gov ernor which could be held to have been sufficiently substantiated to convict him of wrongdoing. It is regrettable that even a suspicion of such misdoings should be entertained against the chief executive of a State which has always prided herself upon the integrity of her officers. For the good name of South Carolina it is to be hoped that the governor will be able to prove the charges as false as he proclaims them to be, but abuse of the investigating committee will add nothing to his cause; the com mittee is discharging its official duty. The dictagraph records of conversa tions held between the Burns detec tive and Nichols, the Spartanburg lawyer, who has been a close friend - & ~ V%au? nnoir a i)i me guvcrnui, icvww uvn owj ? matter it is to secure signatures to a petition for the pardon of even the worst criminal in the penitentiary. The governor has said repeatedly that as long as people continue to send up petitions he will continue to exercise clemency. The ease with which such petitions can be secured, even carrying the names of good peo ple, should minimize the weight to be attached to them. Further news of tlie investigation will be awaited with interest by an anxious public. rr.-nf ~iifc" "Ti fn "1? iirini REFORM NEEDED. The County to County campaign inaugurated under the primary plan will have to go, unless some new and vigorous reforms are introduced. Originally they were intended as a means of educating the people on State issues, but issue* play a minor part in the ordinary campaign speech. The State campaign now amounts to little more than machinery for scat tering wholesale slander atu^ adver tismg to the world tne worst leatures of the State's history. True or false, the slanderous charges made on the stump go out to the world to blacken the reputations of the State's leading men, and the citizenship of the State is judged, outside the State's confines, by the reputation of its leading men. Candidates lor high and honorable offices have accused each other of ly ing, of petty theft and of all the mentionable crimes in the decalogue, and the pity is that the people ac tually applaud. Time and again candidates have (threatened to come to blows. Doubt less some of them are armed and should the collision come, in the nresent excited state of thines. there is no telling where it will stop, or what good men beside the principals will be drawn into it. If the County to County campaign is continued through another elec tion, the law agaihst duelling should be repealed, or the legislature should pass an act making indecent language on the stump punishable by a heavy tine or imprisonment, and all meet ings snouia oe conaueiea unuer me management of sworn peace officers, who will enforce the Jaw. However courageous a man may be, if -bit opponent sees fit to use in sulting language toward him on the stump, he must engage in a public broil, perhaps endanger the lives of by-standers, or be proclaimed a cow ard. The death of one or more men, it would seem, is to be the inevitable outcome of present campaign meth ods, and this, should it happen, will put an end to the County to County canvass. But the price is too dear; some other method could be adopted. For instance, the Georgia, plan of allow ingNwch man to arrange his own cam paign would be preferable. Under this plan candidates would be respon sible to their opponents for abusive charges made, and their difference* would be privately settled. There \> no good reason why a man should submit to insult on the public plat lorm any more man on the street, and a condition that loiters this kind of thing, aside from making the State notorious, lowers the standard of honor of her citizens. Duelling is bad enough, but it,is preferable to the hip-pocket pistol. If the ordinary bully knew that an insult would be met with a challenge to tight, within the law, insults would be handed out more cautiously. Bandying epithets has about reached the limit in South Carolina and the people are tired of thin manner of campaign. PLATFORMS AND HEALTH SERVICE. The framers of the platform of the Republican National Convention did not see fit to make any definite dec laration on the subject of a national Bureau or Department of Health. For this omission there are two pos sible explanations: Either they did not consider the subject of sufficient importance to be worthy of mention, or they feared the antagonism of the interests and sects which, either through selttehness or ignorance, have opposed this measure. On the contrary, the framers of the nlatform for the Democratic party placed in it a strong and comprehensive endorse ment of a national health service. The plank is a straightforward en dorsement of the principles of the present Owen bill. It reads: "We reform oui previous declarations advocating the union and strengthening of the various governmental agencies relat ing to pure foods, quarantine, vital statis tics and human health. Thus united and administered without partiality to or dis crimination against any school of medi cine or system of healing, they would con stitute a single health service, not subor dinated to any commercial or financial interests, but devoted exclusively to the conservation of human life and efficiency. Moreover, this health service should co operate with the health agencies of our various states and cities without interfer ence with their prerogatives or with the freedom of individuals to employ such medical or hygienic aid as they may see fit." The plank in the Democratic plat for'iK evideutly meets tl?e approval of the. journal of the American Med ical Association. In a recent issue it says, commenting on this statement: "There is nothing vague about this; it is coacise and straigtforward, with no attempt at ambiguity."
