ANOTHER MILL. .
Today the people of Abbeville will
be afforded an opportunity to secure
for their town another cotton mill.
It is needless for us to expand upon
the need of such an institution and
the material benefits which will fol
low the successful establishment ol
another mill, for they are well
known.
The meeting to be held at the city
hall tomorrow, at 11:30 should be well
attended; and all interested in the
growth ami progress of the town
should make their subscriptions just
as liberal as possible.
The opportunity is here, what are
you going to do with it?
Make YOUR presence felt at the
meeting by your checkbook.
THE INVESTIGATION.
The work of the sub-coin in ittee, so,
? - far as we have been able to see from,
the published reports, appears toj
have unearthed nothing like naonu-j
' mental fraud. According to Th?1
Daily Mail, the result in Anderson,;
where it was charged the greatfstj
amount of fraud had beeu commit-j
ted, developed some seventy-odd
names, apparently duplicated on th<
11 l* i. L..1 ~ iXl ,1 U.. 1 I
poii iihis, oui tuiiuavus imve utri1
produced to show that many of thew
could be accounted for by two men 01
c the same name.
The disappearance of the poll lisb
in Orangeburg seems shrouded ii
mystery. The election in that coun
ty had been declared clean and it
seems strange that any one should
want to make way with them if sucl
were the case.
All in all, the work of the commit
tee appears not to have unearthe< i
sufficient fraud to change the result,
and there seems nothing left for thi
V f whole committee to do but declan
Governor Blease the nominee. .
WOOED BUT NOT WON.
Mr. Roosevelt advises us that as
long as the South remains "solid," so
long will it be debarred from it* full
share in the nation's government.
Many people in the South have be
lieved the same thing for a long time,
but the tear of a divided white peo
ple appealing to the negro vote h
still a powerful deterrent to the
breaking up of the old order.
But, even were the South read\
and willing to break up Mr. Roo?e
velt has nothing to offer it. Those
Southerners who have a leaning
away from the Democratic fold are
more attracted to men of the Taft
type and are more in sympathy with
the section of the Republican party
which Mr. Taft represents than with
the radical element represented by
Roosevelt.
The South today is more solid than
it was four years ago. It sees victory
in sight, victory long-deferred but
sweeter for this very reason, and it is
not going to turn loose the substance j
for tlie shadow. And anyway the
South prefers to "bear the ills we
have rather than fly to those we
know not of."
. A NEW COVENANT.
To many it may appear rather
strange that some of the Irish people
are ready to refuse the home rule
which, after years of political strug
gle, . is about to be accorded by the
British government.
* The news dispatches convey the in
formation that the Orangemen ol
Ulster have signed a solemn cove
nant never to be ruled by an Irish
parliament.
These Ulsterites are, to a great ex
tent, the descendants of the Scotch
(!nvennntprs unrl inherit the iiulnm
itable will and unfailing courage of |
which those ancestors were possessed i
and which, despite all obstacles, 1
made Scotland forever Protestant. {
The province of Ulster, which em- j
braces practically all the North of
Ireland, contains a population of
practically two millions, at least hall
of whom are Orangemen, as the Pro
testants are called in contradistinction
to the Kibbonmen, the name given
those of the Catholic persuasion.
The province of Ulster and partic
ularly the county of Antrim, in
which lies Belfast, is the most pros
perous part of Ireland, being the seat
of the greatest linen industry in the
world. Cotton and other textile in
dustries tlourish, but the prominent
industry is flax-growing and linen
making, in which this section out
strips the world.
During the reign of Charles I the
Irish were driven from th'i section
and the lands taken up by English
and Scotch. Since then Ireland has
witnessed a constant conflict between
;hese two factions, so divergent in
general characteristics, as well as in
religion, and with little common in
terest. Many have regarded the dif
ferences between the Irish as due en
tirely to the difference of religion,
but it is deeper than this. It is a dif
ference of races, the difference be
tween the conquered and the con
queror, and so bitter has been the en
mity engendered that its outcrop
pings have often and often culmi
nated in the bitterest of street tights
between the opposing factions. In
these street fights, which were in
J..1* 1 : i .? .,.1. V... ;.,ri:.,!^nnla
LlUlgtTU 111 IIUl W I1IUC11 UJ liiuuiuunu
as by bodies of men parading and
i*ounter-parading, the schillalah (a
short, stout cudgel made of black
thorn) was the deadliest weapon
used, but the measure of its effective
ness was often attested by the broken
skull of an over-enthusiastic "Mick
ey" or "Bloody-far-doon."
The Protestant inhabitants of Uls
ter are loyal to the English govern
ment and fear nothing so much as
the rule of their own countrymen, be
cause, in the provinces outside of
Ulster'the real Irish predominate,
:ind any home rule government will
oe practically in the hands of the
Catholics, which are largely in the
majority taking the island as a
whole.
? -r rt.wl
ine province 01 uiBier, uuu paiwt
ularly th county of Antrim, contrib
uted quite largely to the population
of South Carolina. For this reason
the present disturbances in Ireland,
will be watched with more than
passing interest.
