The Pfess and Banner ABBEVILLE^ 8.C. Published Every Wednesday by The Press and Banner Company W. W. Bradley, w. n. duxvukj, President. Vice-President W. T. Walker. Secretary and Manager Wednesday, Aug 21, 1912 NOT GENEROUS, OK EVEN JUST. The slight disposition to hoot at Attorney General Lyon during his speech here on campaign day was not only very ungenerous, coming from his home people, but was de cidedly unjust. We do not advocate the doctrine "home man, right or wrong," but before a mau condemns his neighbor he should be certain that he is wrong. x? /tnlmlir ort/1 Hiu. i\OW ltri US ie\lcv?, IUKI passionately the record of Fr.iscr Lyon, and see whether or not he has betrayed the trust placed in his hands by his fellow-citizens of Abbeville county. Fraser Lyou was elected to the State Legislature as an avowed advo cate of the State dispensary. He made the light against certain prohi bition candidates and won out, we l>elieve, at the head of the ticket. He advocated the State dispensary in all good faith, and ably. During the tirst session of his term, suggestions of graft and rottenness in the man agement of the State dispensary be came so general and ao pronounced that an investigation became impera tive. Governor Blease, then senator, introduced a resolution in the senate providing for an investigation, anri he and the late Senator Hay, of Ker shaw, were Appointed as members of the investigating committee on the part of the senate, and Fraser Lyon and certain other meml>ers of the house were appointed on the part ot the house. The sequel of this inves tigation is too well known to t>e re peated here. -Suffice it to say that such shameless grafting was un earthed as to make the dispensary, in itself a good institution, a reproach and by-word of corruption and frau?I. Did Fraser Lyon then turn his hack on the dispensary principle for which he had originally stood ? No, he joined in the effort to break up the graft centre by doing away with the State dispensary and giving each county control of its own liquor af fairs. This plan proved more than satisfactory to dispensary advocates in the various counties, and in Abbe ville county the profits from the sale of whiskey were increased more than 40 per cent. This increased profit came not so much from increased sale as from the fact that the grafters' commission was no longer paid. Now, we have always stood for the dispensary, but we have never and shall never stand for graft. We can still see no good reason why the county dispensary, as here conducted, was not preferable to the mail order and express system that robs the peo ple of both purchase price and profit. Fraser Lyon stands for exactly this principle. He has never advocated prohibition, but on the contrary 1 stands in exactly the same position that every dispensary advocate in Abbeville county stands today. To say that he did wrong in working to abolish the old State dispensary is to reflect on ourselves, in that the sys tem was corrupt, and we could not justify its continuance. If we were satistied with the county dispensary plan, then we are forced to justify his act in aiding to eliminate the graft centre in Columbia. 1 Now any insinuation that Lyon has acted dishonestly in collecting re funds for overcharges by liquor houses is absolutely unfounded. Such statements may serve to mud dv the waters ami in t,hi? nf m political campaign may have some credence in counties where Lyon is not known. But people of Abbe- , ville county know that Fraser Lyou is absolutely honest and trustworthy, < and to give any countenance to charges to the contrary is unfair, un kind and palpably wrong. The cit izens of this his home county, should at least measure him in the light of his record, and if that record is not out of harmony with the views that they now entertain on the dispensary question, we are forced to admit that he has been as true to his trust as when he made his lirst campaign as a State dispensary advocate. KE FAIR TO YOUKSELF. \ Ho much of bitterness and of fac tional and personal feeling has crept into the present campaign that a vast number of voters are going to cast their ballots for men whom under ordinary circumstances they would never support. To vote against a man on the ground that some mau or set of men whom you do not like is supporting him is to stamp your self as unworthy of the great priv ilege of exercising your suffrage. The sole consideration that should influence your ballot is which candi date best represents the principles i which are nearest in accord with your ideals of government and which i of those asking for your vote is best qualified to discharge the duties that 7 v. his election to office will impose upon ' him. To base your ballot upon any other ground is to strike a blow at the fundamental principle which under- f lies our government and to disprove , the theory that the American people < have demonstrated to the world that ' the only satisfactory government is that in which the people are the sov- ; ereigns. ( It is to be hoped that the people of Abbeville county will lay aside all pergonal and factional feeling and make up their minds that only those men whom they believe will best serve their interests will receive their votes on election day. Vote for whom you please, but be 1 sure your ballot represents your cairn and unbiased judgment, based upon \ mature deliberation. Only in such a way can you discharge your full duty to yourself and ywur country. JtfAJOB H1CHAKDS ENDORSED I'EOFLE OF HO-ttt TOWS. ' j "Citizen" Calls Attention to the Fact That -MuJ. Richards' Good Work Secured >ew Depot lor Abbeville. j Editor of The Press and Banner: Alter hearing all the promises made by the candidates for Railroad Com- 1 missioner, 1 would likiff to call the attention of the voters of Abbeville 1 County* to the fact that John G. 1 Richards, Jr., helped us to get -our new depot when we had almost lost 1 tlio litrh* and now in tliri) WP shnilld 1 show our appreciation 'by giving him a good solid vote. A8 an example of the esteem in which Maj. Richards is held by his ' home people I give below the reso lutions adopted by the Chamber of 1 Commerce of Camden, the county seat of Maj. Richards' home town. Citizen. 1 At a regular monthly meeting of the ' Camden Chamber of Commerce, held ' on August 7, 1912, at 6 o'clock p. m., Camden, S. C., the following preamble ( and resolutions were unanimously 1 adopted: ' v ' "Whereas, our esteemed fellow cit izen, the Hon. John G. Richards, Jr., who was appointed Railroad Covmmis- : sioner without solicitation, is a' can didate to succeed himself at the com ing primary election; be it "Kesoivea, i. uim v?c iicicuj uc?i testimony to the high character of Mr. Richards, and to the love and esteem that i9 felt for him in this, his na tive county, and to the willing and ' hearty support that has always been given him at home. "3. That we, his fellow citizens, do iincerely indorse the excellent' ser vice rendered by him to hi? State, and , that we do heartily recommend him to the voters of South Carolina. "3. That these resolutions be spread upon our minutes and that a copy of the same be sent to Mr. Richards. LAURENS T. MILLS. President Camden Chamber Com merce. J A true copy?Attest: C. P. DuBose, Asst. Sec. "OppoHes" the Measure. The State. We observe In the Abbeville Press arid Banner that Howard Moore, candidate for the House of Representatives, introduced The State Into his initial speech, saying this newspaper is (responsible for requir- 1 ins: candidates to state where tliey stand in the Governor's race. We thank the gentleman for the compliment, but lie is mistaken. . < ' i We note further thut Mr. Moore ex- ' pre.ssed himself as opposed to the school inspection bill and said if such a bill wag passed he would try to attack an aiueiuV ment to It allowing one's family physician to inspect the children of the family. Had Mr. Mooro taken sufficient interest in the subject to inform himself he would know i that the bill passed by the legislature and vetoed by the Governor contains a pro- ' vision for the acceptance of the certificate 1 of the family physicia 1. He would also know, if he gave the sub- | ject a little intelligent thought, that the , bill is designed to aid chiefly thoso poor i people who can not afford tho luxury 6f a "family physician," and whose children suffer from defective hearing, defective eyesight, and sometimes from tuberculo- ' His and hookworm without either the chil dren or their parents knowing of the ex- ( istence of the trouble. v ( The bill that Candidate Moore says he "opposes" jiB designed |?improve|the phys ical welfare of those ^thousands of South Carolina school children who are not in l the care of "family physicians;" it pro- < poses to do so free of cost to those people, j Why the opposition by "friends of the i poor people?" [Abkod for a statement with regard to ! the above, Mr. Moore said that hit* remarks I were incorrectly reported in The Press and Banner. He says that the substance of his remarks were that The State was responsible for the candidacy of Judge , Jones and that the action of the county ' convention was responsible for a condition ; which made it necessary for candidates to the Legislature to declare their prefer ence for Governor. Mr. Moore says he based his opposition to the medical inspection bill on tho ground of economy, believing the county unable to meet the cost of medical inspec- 1 tloii. . He says it was his intention, in the event 1 that there way a likelihood of the bill ' passing, to support au amendment apply ui? iu wuuty v/iiiy| which wuum strike out the whole bill and substitute a certificate of the family physician. Head ers who are interested in the matter will Hud the bill as proposed at the last session of the Legislature, published in full in The Press aud Banner of August 7th.?Ed.| 1 Mad at Paint 25c a gallon for paint is about $2.50 on the average job? and lots of men wa ited last year for tftat ; but they didn't reckon; they got mad; wouldn't pay it. There are times to get mad mid re- ' fuse to pay; but when one's property needs i protecting is no time to get mad and not ( paint. Besides, it costs more to get mad and ' wait than to paint. s Getting mad doesn't do any good td | your property; paint does it good by . keeplng-out water; no water no rot; no paint, some water and rot; and a little rot is more than enough to make a man liberal towards his painter aud paint.

It was the ambition of the Joint Committee on Endow ment to have the canvass in South Carolina Presbytery before summer vacation time, so as to leave the early fall clear, for. the campaign in Har mony and Charleston Presbyteries, and this they were able to do. Only one of the pastors in the Presbytery was away on his vacation, and not many of the members were away. The time seemed propitious. Thanks to the hearty cot-operation of pastors and officers the preliminary arrange ments were made quickly and easily. The Banquet "Was held at Abbeville, Thursday, July 18th, being attended by 76 men, which is the largest number, in pro portion to the membership, present at any of the similar gatherings. Quite a number were prevented from attend ing by reason of the heavy rains just preceding the time of the banquet. The ladies of the Abbeville church Berved the supper, and maintained the high degree of excellence established by former servings. Much credit is due our faithful ladies for the loyal way they are-helping on the Campaign and when the victory is won they will share largely in it. * a "The program of addressee was much the same as at previous ban quets. '' "It is a goodly sight to see a large body of the men. of our Church from various congregations getting togeth er, at considerable cost, to talk over the work of the Church. If we would get together in a similar way more of ten-we would come to know each oth er'bette*, have a clearer understand ing of the work we are called upon do ao, ana mere wouia De a more mut ed and more enthusiastic effort in the accomplishment of any given task. "The banquets are not only delight ful gatherings of the leaders of tk? Church, but they are exceedingly val uable and their value is not limited to the immediate matter in hand. "Sunday, July 21st, was observed as Field Sunday, and again practical ly all of the-.churches had special ser mons relating to the Campaign, most af these being preached by visiting ministers. The Canvass "Began immediately and has pro gressed with considerable interest and gratifying success. At the close of the allotted eight days the sum of $11,117.00 had been reported subscrib ed by 22 churches. Only six churches had failed to make reports, and there were good reasons for these failures, rhe Presbytery is asked to raise $20, iOO.OO. The Canvass will continue and there is ground for hope that the full amount of $20,000.00 will be subscrib ed. The Close of the Campaign "A year .ago it was hoped that the Canvass in each of the Presbyteries would have been made by now, but 'he hard winter necessitated a delay. "Synod meets in Columbia, Octo ber 22nd, and it is the desire of the Joint Committee on Endowment to tromplete the Campaign by then and be able to report to the Synod that the lull amount 01 ^zu.uvimju n?s ueeu subscribed. In order to do this it is likely that the Cauvass in the Pres byteries of Harmony and South Caro lina will be made at the same time? early in October. With the experience gained by the work that has been done it is believed that the Canvass can be conducted in the two Presbyteries jointly as successfully as if conducted separately, and much time will thus be saved. "In addition to putting on the Can vass in these two Presbyteries there is the necessity of completing the work in the Presbyteries that have not yet raised their full quota or -ap proached it sufficiently near to satiB^ fy. This may be the more difficult task, but it does seem reasonable to believe .that those churclies wnicn have not done their best, which hare come short of the mark, will realize the great responsibility restihg upon them and will, in some way, rally their forces and lead them to a satis factory discharge of a sacred duty. OH for First Payment Subscription. "It is the earnest desire of the Joint Committee on Endowment to be able to send out the call for the first payment on subscriptions by November 1st. This call would be for one-fourth of the amount subscribed. Other calls for a like part would then come on May 1, 1913; November 1, 1913; and May 1, 1914."
