Scraps and facts. ? The total nuinher of Americans in Franco last Saturday was 1.250.000. This includes 300.000 which w>f s--nt forward during July. ? A (Jcnnan dispatch says that when fJerrnan officers undertook to get information from American war prisoners, the prisoners usually advi.se tiiem to ask I'ershing or to cnhle Wilson. It is said that such answers made the (Sermans furious and this, of ?-ourse. is quite natural. ? H"rl*ert Hoover, American food administrator, is in Ixndon. At a dinner giv? r ir. i.is honor );<st Friday, he said: "I am happy to say that food supplies are assured for the periou of the war. and I do not think it necessary to estimate for more than two years more. In less than two years the result will he victory." ? In a talk to the newspaper m.-i. In Washington last Saturday. *i?n. March, chief of staff. said that during the previous ten days the Americana had advanced ek-ven miles against the Hermans, from Chateau Thierry. The Hermans were at that time eleven miles further away train I'aris than wl? n the drive hegun. Also the hattie line between Itheims and Soissons, then fit miles, had tn-en shortened la miles from its greatest length of 71 miles ten days Is-fore. ? Hope of winning the war is fading fast in the Herman trenches, if letters taken from some Herman prisoners accurately reveal the morale ol some of the <ierman troops. "The Americans are in front of us, and they are terrible men." read one letter taken from a <ierman prisoner. "We no longer have any ho|s\" it continued. "My company of 130 is down to 30." "We should stop Is-fore we are utterly demolished," wrote another <ierman soldier. "1 am always hoping VIt*- French may succeed in roping us In. We should then at any rate l>e relieved from the moral anguish we are continually suffering, our strength Is becoming more and more sapped, ami if some of us do get home we shall l>c broken men." ? Uovernor William 1). Stephens ot California, announced last Saturday that he had decided to grant a reprieve to Thomas J. Mooney, which yvill o|#-nite as a stay of execution until December 13. I tils. The governor announced that he took this aetion at this time that all persons in the state and throughout the country might he assured the fullest consideration will l?- given the case by the executive and Judicial branches of t h< government of California. "The Mooney case has heen in courts ot this state for more than two years and the records and briefs an* volutii' * ..II *,f thi. inous ami i win > time between now and December 13 to give this matter can'I'll I consideration which justice to hoth Thomas J. Mooncy and thi- |icop|e demands shall Im- uivi ii." says a statement ifiven out by Coventor Stephens. ? There is not and m ver h:is liecn the slightest ii-a son to suppose that Cen. Foeh expected to trap a hull* a million Ccrmans in the Itlicims-Soissons |lOCkct. It IllllSt he remellllH-red that this last ffreat o|?crntion was commenced |?.v the Ccrmans in tin ? nature of a drive toward I'aris. Tliej had already crossed the Maine river in large numbers and they were cxiM'ctiriK to push forward in overwhclininif force. Hut the Allies not only held their ift'ound, but drove tin Ccrmans back until the Ccnnans were contlned to a deep pocket with the Allies all around them, except at the too aliening. l*|H>n this situation tin' Allied world began to build up a hope that the entire Ccrman army would be captured. Hut Cen. Koch never thought anything of the kind. He was well aware that he did not have enough men to accomplish such a thing, lie did do what he set out to do. however, and more, lb not only kept the Ccrmans from coming on; but he drove them back. ? American troops advancing along the Maine have discovered hundreds of dead Ccrmans. The victims fell before the Americans' heavy machine gun fire duHr\g_ j.ho ret real. In one horseshoe area the ground was 'powered with dead. The Americans burled as many bodies as was possible. It Is estimated I',000 Ccrmans fell there. Farmers along the Marne report having s?"en the bodies of Ccrman dead floating downstream. The militar* authorities arc planning some system by which they can clear the river of Itodics. Three days after the Ccrmans evacuated Chateau Thierry. the Americans found a lone Herman in Mont St. IVre, hiding in a cellar. The prisoner said he was tired of the war and was determined to secrete himself. notwithstanding the fact that he had no food, and later take a chance by surrendering to the Allies. He said the Herman soldiers were dissatisfied with the way affairs were going and that the general opinion among them was that the crown prince was unable to bring snlliclcnt re-infoivements or food supplies to aid the forces being attacked from the south. The Amcnciin wniium ed with pleasure the prisoner appease his appetite a ft or his thrvo days' fast. ? Satisfactory progress is being made l?y the American troops assisting the French and Itritish in pushing in tilt* Herman lines on the Soissons-Klieims salient, members of the house military committee were told last Friday by Secretary linker and (leneral March, chief of staff. The trans|H>rtation facilities of the expeditionary army are fully meeting the strain placed upon them in keeping the moving trooiis supplied and in bringing up heavy guns and ammunition. the representatives were told. While without information as to casualties in the present battle, Secretary Maker said the percentage of men killed in previous lighting has been remarkably low. Figures furnished tile committee members showed that the death rati* in battle has been eight jter thousands while there was exactly the same pro|>ortion of deaths from disease among the ex|n*ditionary forces. The otllcial said this undoubtedly was the lowest death rate among troops .at war in the history of the world. Members of the committee inquired as to the losses by the Hermans In killed since tin- present battle started, hut (Jenoral March said he had no information on that subject, adding that the American forces were tor) busy pressing theli offensive to even attempt to estimate the Herman dead. ? According to reports received from different Hlo Orande border points, the plan of bringing Mexican labor to Texas to work upon the farms and railroads and in different industrial plants Is ts'lng successfully carrbsl n 1*4 stated that these laborers are coming into Texas sit the rate of nearly 10.000 a month. Moiv thsin 100 a ?lay arc entering through the Kl 1'aso gateway. and the remainder are divided between Eagle l'ass, Del Kio. Laredo an?l Brownsville. It is stated that the Carranza government is not only lending encouragement to this movement of native laborers to the I'nited States but Is co-operating in a valuable way to supply the demands to the fullest extent possible. All intended laborers are furnished with free transportation from their homes to border points. Many of them, under this arrangement, are coming from interior parts of Mexico, as far south of the Rio Grande as firtO to S00 miles. In most Instances the men are accompanied by their wives ;ind chfldron. They carry all their worldly l>elonglngs with them. In true Mexican peon fashion. Efforts on the part of Texas railroads to stop the practice of these Mexican laborers carrying big bundles of household belongings ui>on the trains with them have proved unavailing. ? Delivery of letters from chaplains, members of the American Red Cross and others to families of American soldiers killed overseas, recounting the circumstances under which the men died, is to be expedited under a plan announced by Gen. Bershing. Hereafter such letters will be marked with a small cross so thnt they can be distinguished immediately and promptly forwarded to the adjutant general's office in France. After verification of the deaths by the casualty section, they will be forwarded. ? American fighting troops are now on the Italian front. They began arriving last Saturday morning. They are being billeted with the Italians. H'-rt-tofori- the only combatant Am?-rl- ; an troops nip aviators, ami the x.p- ( IKiiniri"' of this law bc<l> of tie* tiirhtinn rn? n from the t.'nited States at tin- present moment ha.s oecnsion -<1 the greatest sensation.

I ?hf \torferiltc inquirer Kntered at the Postofflce at York aa Mall Matter of the Second Cluaa. TUESDAY, JULY 30, 1918. I tut how can the administration Inless Democratic than it has been? Truly every cloud has its silver lining. According to President Wilson the man u ho condones mob law is disloyal to his country, and the president is surely right. The Hermans hav? not been louted but they are gitting out ot that Itlu iins-Soissons jiockct as best they can. Those iicrman troops who "escaped observation" while crossing the Marne, are subjects of \< ry considerable Intcrest at this tint'.*. If the (Serinaur had got there before the Americans it would have been theirs; but how could anybody expect to get there before the Americans'.' American troops can go anywherthey want to go. and il liny do not go to Iterlin it will In- because il will not be necessary. Every grown man knows tin- difference between right and wrong, and tinman who stands for wrong even in the cast- of a brother, is not to he dcp? tided upon. < >f all the great state papers that have emanated from I'resident Wilson, that against mob law Is the greatestKven the (Jennans do not tolerate mob law in their own eonntry. We arc inelilted to think that tin <|Uestion as to what to vail the troops from the I'nited States will linally be solve*! in favor of Ainerleans. That is what these troops are, and they eannot be anything else. The main issue in the raee for supervisor and eonnty eommissioners this year will l>o the shortening tie road to Tipporary. The general sentiment is that this mid is too long and all the candidates who are opposed to , .ajttkiffg-.thc road shorter, and improving what is ' fetT, should ho loft at home. ? Willi the (inmans in retreat from the Itheims-Soissons isK-ket, and most of their artillery going backward, tlx Allied tanks have la-en having an easy time pieking tip etu-my machin* guns. Indeed it is said that the tanks have captured not a few pieces of artilleiy or rather they have killed the gunners and l?-lt the guns to be picked up by the infantry. The two op|K>ncnts of Claude X. Sapp are said to he more or loss angry with each other as to which is to get the op|M>sition vote, and right now it looks as if there will have to he an elimination meeting on the subject. Mr. Sapp is going to get lots of votes throughout litis section purely on a basis of merit, regardless of partisanship. The line Impression !ic made in tin- congressional race is still drawing interest. It is conceded on all sides now that tin- Americans have measured up to all the highest standards ot Kuropean soldiership in every situation. They 1 thnlp i-iiiimd against <!er IlitO ... . man raids; they have successfully raided tin-man trenches; they have attacked superior nuuihers with the hnyonet and left them dead u|x>n the tlclil; they have held up their end when lighting shoulder to shoulder with the French, and they have successfully withstood tin-man mass attacks in grand offensives. Verily, the Americans are all that could he claimed except they are not yet quite numerous enough. In telling his audience how heavily he would lay taxes for c<lucatlonal pur|H>ses, Mr. Dcst'hnmps also said: "Itut you need not he alarmed, for there is not the slightest chance of my election." We do not know a great deal about Mr. DesOhamps. practically nothing, except what he has told us from the stump. As to whether or not he would make a good governor we do not know; though somehow we hardly think he could possibly be more disappointing than what we have. However. Mr. DesChamps will not be governor. Whatever other uualitications he may have, he lacks the political following. and that is what it takes to make a governor in South Carolina. As to who is going to be elected to the I'nited States senate we do not know. We hear Dial men express the fear that lUcasc will be elected, and Mease men express the fear that Dial will he 'elected. We have heard some Mease men counting strongly on the election of Mease, and Dial men counting strongly on the election of Dial. Illce is not in it. and Dial would not have Peon >n n mucn except to beat lileaso. All the nowspa pors that are sxtpportlng anybody, with the exception of the Charleston \merican and the Newberry Herald and News, are supporting Dial, or rather opposing III ease. The j?oople are not making a great deal of fuss one way or the other: but more people have heard Blease speak so far than have heard all the other candidates in the aggregate. We hardly think, however, that ltlease has spoken to enough people to elect him even if he shoxild get the votes of all to whom he has spoken, and he will not do that. For the short term the race seems to be between Peoples and Christie lionet. Pollock is making a lot of fuss: but we do not calculate J on his getting a great many votes. \\'<- arc disposed to think he is in the ra more in the interest of Bttnet R. than in trie interest of himself.

J It was this way: Mi He wanted to emphasize the absolute accuracy of such portions of the Yo report of I!lease's Filbert speech as j suited his purposes, and he began by y? speaking in a highly eulogistic manner j of The Yorkville Enquirer. Ni "Here is The Yorkville Enquirer," he j said. It is the best county paper in the Fnited Stales. It is the best in South < 'arolina. It would not tnisrep- , resent Mr. ltlease or anybody else. It .. r i would be p< i tcctly lair to almost any- j body." _ ! However, though he might be honest about it, we really do not 1 believe that Mr. liethea meant exactly St; what he said. We rather think he meant that The Enquirer's report of p( anybody's speech would be almost 01 pretty nearly correct.
