C. The returns indicate that some of the "faithful" were overlooked in the Calhoun County j election last Tuesday. Plate matter booming-Johnson for the Presidency can be had for the asking, and we expect to see much of it used by some papers to fill up.. ? The News and Courier says "the Bryanites object to a delegation of unreconstructed Democrats,'' The Bryanites will be satisfied with any delegation the people see fit to send to Denver. - Charleston has a good many friends in this neck of the woods, but it is certain they can't whoop up the Charleston base ball team unless it improves. Up to date it has scored six big goose eggs. About this time four years ago the country was flooded with free plate matter booming Judge Packer for President. No doubt the same people who sent that out are now reading out the Johnson matter as it comes from the same source. The Charleston Post - says the Johnson boomis^not. making, much ?Aeadway, and it is yet to be shown that there is anything substantial in iL The Post does not think it Trill be shown before or at the Den rer convention, which will nominate Bryan. The Augusta Herald says "if the ladies are to be allowed to wear those new hats of gigantic propor tions to church, the old custom* of having the women seated on one side of thecentre)aisle should be revived. Some men can't take the sermon . properly unless they can see the preacher." Because he found his salary of ?1.500 a year insufficient to provide the necessities of life for his mother and sister and at the same time leave enough for him to marry the .girl he loved, Lieut, David Q. Lind say, of the United. Stated signal corps, at San Erandsto; C?l., 'ihot and killed himself a few days ago. j "Why don't you acKuowledge, what you know to be a fact, that a great majcrity of the Democrats of j of this country sincerely believe in j and desire the nomination and elec tion of Mr. Bryrn, and stop your back-biting? Join us like a man and assist in winning a great victory," writes a New Yorker to The World. Col. Asbury Co ?ard has sent in Ms resignation to the board of visi tors of the South Carolina Military Academy, to take effect in Septem ber, the six months' notice required being given. For eighteen years he aas been at the head of the academy, and has built it up to its present' atate of efficiency through trying times. His place will be hard to fill. News comes to the effect that Democratic congressmen from liouisiana are alarmed at the pros pect of their state going Republican. We think this is a false alarm. From what we can learn it is another ef fort to get the Commercial Democ racy on its feet again.' That move ment laid out McLaurin in this State and will do the same for Louisiana Democrats that are fathering it. The Charleston Post very truly says the antagonism of such men as C. F. Mnrphy, the boss of Tammany Hall, and "Fingy" Conners, the chairman of the New York State committee do no more hurt to Mr. Bryan than did the opposition of the New York machine to Mr. Cleveland in 1892, when, in the face of the I candidacy of David B. Hill, present ed and strenuously supported by the representatives in the convention of his own State, Cleveland was nomi nated on the first ballot nnd tri umphantly elected at the polls. 1 The Full Dinner Pail. Referring to the happenings in Union Square, New York City, Sat urday, March 28, the New York cor respondent for the Chicago Inter Ocean said, "They have brought many carts into the square to serve as speaking stands," reported a policeman. "Drive them away; use your clubs jf necessary," replied the inspector. A man from the crowd, hearing the command, advanced, pulled a paper from his pocket, and tapped it with his finger. "That," he said, "is the strongest thing in America. It is .the consti tution of the United States. It says that the people have aright to peaceable assemblage." "This is the strongest thing in the Union square," replied the inspec tor, holding aloft his club. Suddenly the demonstration fell back before the bluecoats. Then a (jman in the throng started the "Marseillaise.," The great- throng took it up. In an instant the defiant battle song of the French revolution was echoing through the 1 vast square. Surging in and out, keep ing ahead 6f the clubs of the police, the red hats dodged. They bore mottoes like this: "We demand work." "Why should we go hungry?" "Public thievery makes private Doverty." All at once there appeared the magnificent mounted police. These splendid officers bore down upon the multitude like so many mounted soldiers of the Ney division. "Drive them into the East river!" command the inspectors. The horses turned, into the crowd. Many fell beneath.the hoofs of the animals. In panic the red hatted columns dashed backward. They massed upon the sidewalk. On came the charging police'cavalry, pushing on, on to the sidewalk, with the curveting steeds. Referring to this dispatch the Omaha World-Herald says: "It reads like a page from Carlyle's 'French Revolution/ or^ like an ac count of what might have happened somewheae in darkest Russia. It dosen't read like the story of what happened in free and enlightened America, in the early years of the Twentieth century." And the slogan was*] "Four years more of the full dinner Dail!" Diagnosing the Opposition. The Springfield, Mass.. Republi ; can an independent Republican pa per with a national "reputation for ability and conservative judgement presents this view of a sub ject that now is very much alive in South Carolina. We earn estly commend its study to Demo crats of this State. Says the Re I publican: 'There are evidently two ways of interpreting the opposition to Mr. Bryan's noinination,. which is now finding organized expression in the open campaigning for Gov. Johnson and Judge Gray. Either the opposi tion is based upon the honest con viction that Mr. Bryan could not be elected, or it is based upon the dis tressing fear that he might be elect ed. There is more substance in the latter interpretation than is com monly conceded. ? That section of the conservative Democracy which has zealously fought Mr. Bryan for 12 bitter years .can, not consis tently view with serenity the possk bility of a Bryan administration, Tor-'the ^a^r-'?^'i^-'^fas him as a dangerous man who would make the most unsafe of Presidents. It is to be remembered, also, that the Democratic politicians and edi tors who have been unrelenting in their antagonism could not hope to exercise influence upon or receive favors from an administration of which Mr. Bryan would be the head. Add to that their humilation over the final success of their dearest foe in reaching the Presidency, in spite of their long-continued hostility, (and a motive is easily found for their present conduct in making a last-ditch fight for one third of the delegates to Denver." And, says the State, to defeat the nomination of Bryan these enemies, mostly selfish and personal, will join forces with Republicans with trusts and with other dishonest corpora tions that have reason to fear a gov ernment for the people. Should South Carolinians listen to such advisers? I Should consistent political and indus ! trial opponents have potent voice ' inD emocratic councils here? He Knew Them. "Something happened in New York a few days ago that was very characteristic of those people who are always throwing rocks at the South because of her principles and behavior," says the Florence Times. ' Everybody rememders the scandal that was created by Artist Earle, who left his wife for an 'affinity' and who was made to feel the lash of severe popular disapproval among his neighbors. He took a trip with the affinity and returned to his handsome home on the Hubson. The people in the community were so outraged in their feelings and sense of decency that police protection was needed to keep the couple from the mob. That looked very much as if there was still alight, the fires of respect for the domestic hearth and the sense of moral responsibility, and one felt encouraged. Next night the mob went round to Earle's house to raise a rumpus aud run him and his affini ty away from the community. This was lawless, but it showed some leanings to a higher law, and was therefore to be taken with some de gree of leniency. Artist Earle evi dently knew his neighbors better than they did themselves, because he was not at any time anything but contemptous of them and their howling. When he heard the mob at his door he went out and welcom ed them in spite of his affinity's pro testations. He invited them m, gave them wine to drink and gold to take home with them, and they nearly ate him up, coming with shouts of death to Earle, they left with hurrahs and glad shouts of praise that they had so good a man in their midst. So all of our hopes for the betterment \ of the moral condition of that community have to be rebuilt. The incident was ty pical. We do hot think that it could have happened that. way in the South, though there have been inci dents that lead us to the entertain ment of grave suspicions at times. And History Will Repeat. The Sioux City Journal, republi can, seems to be fearful lest the tar iff barons obtain the impression that they have something to fear by rea son of the tariff revision promises of republican leaders. The Journal says that the Ohio-Iowa republican tariff plank of 1908 is in no .sense a departure from the republican pra> tice. It adds: "In 1884 the Chicago platform pledged the party 'to correct the in. equalities of the tariff,' and its promise was to do this 'by such methods as will relieve the taxpayer without injuring the laborer or the great productive interests of the country .' That is.what will be done next year if the republican partv is continued in commission." f The Commoner says since 1884 the republican party has revised the tar iff twice and in both instances it was a revision that benefited the tariff barons sather than the consumers. In its day the McKenley bill was re garded as a very high measure of the protective tariff but it was n:>t to belcompaxed with the Dingley law enacted seven years later? \ All the world knows, or ought to know, that at the very time the re publican party. was promising "to correct the inequalities of the tar iff" or to do something that "will relieve the taxpayer" that party was deriving its campaign funds from the men who have grown rich through the high tariff fostered by the republican party. Devotedly the republican leaders have protected the tariff barons af ter the election and, borrowed the Sioux City Journal's language, "that is what will be done next year if the republican party is continued in commission. Who Pays for This? The Times and Democrat has re ceived the following ^ery liberal of fer: GOVERNOR JOHNSON EOR PRESIDENT: We arefauthorizedto, offer to pa pers free of charge, expressage pre paid, political matter favoring" the candidacy for. President of Gov. Johnson of Minnesota. A page will be prepared once in three we< ks, in which his followers will set forth his qualifications for the office. If you desire to take advantage of this opportunity, kindly fill out the at tached postal, and mail it at once. The order for this page goes to Chi cago, but the plates will be shipped to you from our nearest office. AMERICAN PRESS ASSOCIATION. This means that two columns of matter booming Johnson for Presi dent will be furnished each week to any paper free of charge that will publish it. Wonder who pays for this matter? Certainly not Mr. Johnson, because he says no man should seek the Presidential offiice. The above card was sent us from New York. If there is any plates being sent out in the interest of Mr. Bryan we have not heard of it. It seems that plates are sent out only for candidates who say they are not seeking the office. But who pays for them is the question. Can the New York World or the News and Courier tell us? Notice. Notice la hereby give* Fair- th? undersigned will apply to Hon. Chas. G.
