Will the Journal please give us the dg ures and tell us where to find t&etn. If the Republicans succeed in get ting the people to endorse them at the polls this fall it will be a sad day for the people. If railroads generally have been subjected to the same grafting that the Illinois Central has experienced 'no- wonder they wanted to increase freight rates. iThe English have just discovered that their army rifle is less effective than the German. That will give the British scare-mongers another chance to create a panic. On behalf of his many friends in ?Ulis city we extend Senator Tillman hearty congratulations on reaching his sixty-third year. We wish .him many more years of usefulness. i The attempt, of Mayor Gaynor's life has caused a wave of indignation to sweep over the entire country. It was a dastardly attempt to rob the country of one of its best citizens, and the cowardly assassin should be summarily dealt with. Philanthropy unless wisely exer cised is liable to do more harm than good. Too often one's abundant kindness of heart ?s apt to run away with his judgment, like that of the ?man who held an umbrella over his duck every time it rained. ?? It is estimated that the people of the United States are robbed every year of twr thousand million dollars for the benefit of .the lumber and other trusts by means of the tariff. What amount of that immense steal does the farmers of Orangeburg County pay? If we knew, it would amaze us.. . If being chummy with Uncle Joe Caucon disqualifies Norman E. Macli as a witness, as the Sun claims, ii ought to disqualify Lever too. H< was so chummy with Uncle Joe thai he voted with him to pass a protze tive Republican measure when ah .party platform demanded that it b< put on the free list. The South will gain fifteen o twenty congressmen and votes in thi electoral college by the new ceusus All we hgve to do is to be true t< ourselves and our future is assured Let us stand up for the rights of th< masses as against the classes, am we will help the whole country alonj with ourselves. The Times and Democrat onl: lacks a comparatively few subscrlb ers tj reach the three thousand marl and we expect to get them and moi< - before January. The Times and Dem ocrat now has the largest circulatioi of any country: pape:: in South Caro Una, but that does not satisfy us We want to go over the three thous and mark. Read what Senaror Till Lift u says aboui the tax on lumber, which will be found head of fourth column ol the first page. He says he votsd against it because it plunders ?ie farmers and others. The Senator's speech knocks a big hole in Mr. Le er's statement that the lumber duty does not take a cent out of the pockets of the farmers. Who is right, Tilhman or Lever? Read Senator Tillman's letter as io his vote on iron ore. It will be found bead of first column on the first page. It completely disproves the char,;o made by the Sun that the Senator voted to tax the pio>vs used by the farmers. You can al ways cotmt on Senator Tillman a*?d his votes. He knows too much from experience the burdens.the farmers jave to bear to help the Republicans oppress Lhem fuither. The -Bra-nob villc Journal quotas Mr. Lever as saying that "the plat form of 1908 did not declare for ?free lumber except that kind which goes into the manufacture of print paper. The ordinary building lum ber was not specified or mentioned." The Journal either misquotes Mr. Lever or Mr. Lever is trying to fool the people by misquoting iU *? lum ber plank in the platform. Get ;.he platform and read it for yuur.Hdf. The new census will give the South more political power than it ever has had by increasing .her num ber of Congressmen and her votes in the electoral college. On the other hand, many of the distinctive Repub lican Slates will lose political pow er or will stand where they are. uith <his condition facing them the Re publicans are apt to m.ke an effort to curtai/ the power of the South er or will stand where they are. With plea that the negroes are not allow ed to vote. Senator Till man's Reasons. The Times and Democrat having shown to the satisfaction of all fair minded readers that there was no similarity in the vote oi Senator Tillman for a duty on tea and Con gressman Lever's vote for a duty on lumber, the Sun abandons its tea proposition and brings up Senator Tillman's vote for a duty on iron ore, and wants to know "why, when Senator Tillman voted for a duty on iroa ore, a commodity that affects every farmer who uses a plow, and all of them use plows?why, we ask, did not The Times and Democrat de nounce Senator Tillman for voting as he did? Was The Times and Democrat afraid of Senator Tlil man." No doubt the Sun thinks that the question it propounds above is a squelcher, but really there is noth ing in it, for there is no comparison at all between the vote of Senator Tillman" for a duty on iron ore and ?the vote. of Congressman Lever for a duty on lumher, as we shall show by the testimony of the Senator him self. Our readers will please turn to the first column of the first page of this paper and read what the Senator says in explanation of his vote for a duty on iron ore. The Senator's statement completely an swers the question of the Sun and makes an answer from us unneces sary. We all know Ben Tillman and believe what he says. Senator Tillman points out that the duty on iron ore does not hurt the consumer, from the fact that the ?Steel Trust is enabled through the operations of the tariff schedule on goods manufactured out of iron to shut out all competition and fix the prices to suit themselves. He says there is overwhelming evidence that ?there are no independent steel or iron producers. The Steel Trust has absolute control and enjoys a mon opoly of the iron and steel business in this country. If we could reduce the tariff on manufactured iron we could get cheaper prices, but the tariff law bars out all competition. He says it was brought out in the debate that /some of the Eastern , companies have contracts with the Cuban mine owners to import not less than a million tons of Cuban ore a year, and he saw no reason why this ore should come in free when it would make no difference whatever to the consumers of iron and steel as to the price we would pay for these articles. The iron mines in , Cuba are owned by the Steel Trust and the duty voted for by Senator Tillman would be paid hy it. From the Senator's testimony it will be I seen that his vote for a duty on iron . ore does not raise the price of a ; plow or anything else made out of iron or steel. Having exonerated Senator Till 1 man from the charge made by the \ Sun that he had voted for a duty I that would make the plows of the farmers cost more, let us see what he thinks about Congressman Lev $ er's vote for a duty on lumber. For : this purpose we will again introduce t Senator Tillman. Our readers will 1 please turn to the fourth column of t ithe first page of this paper and read - for themselves what the Senator 5 says about the duty on lumber for 2 which Corgressman Lever voted. As usual he calls a spade a spade. Af ter reading what the Senator says r about the duty on iron ore and the 2 duty on lumber we do not think any ,. one wiil claim that there is any j similarily between tho two. The . lumber duly is a tax on the people 3 and the Iron ore duty is a tax on I the Steel Trust. Clark Faces Two Ways. Congressman Champ Clark, who is the leader of the Democratic minor c ity in Congress, has been quoted both by Congressman Lever and by Con [ gressman Ellerbe as endorsing their l vote for a duty on lumber. In an interview recently Clark said the Re publicans passed the worst tariff hill [ ever put on the statute books, and yet he condones the votes of the Democrats who voted for one of the worst schedules in the worst tariff [ bill ever passed. Clark seems to j lack backbone to come out and staud up for true Democratic principles, and therefore he faces both ways. Should the Democrats win the next 1 house, which is probable, Clark will be a candidate for Speaker, and possibly he does not want to say anything about a probable member that wouid cause him to vote against him. That is what is the matter with the Democratic parly today. It has too many men as leaders who have not got backbone enough to declare for true Democratic p>'ci ples anu stand up for them. If is not wronp for Democratic Congress men to vote for a protective duty, why is it wiong for a Republican Congressman to do so. We would like Mr. Clark to explain why he condones one and condemns the oth er for doing -the same thing. Swear the Witness. The Times and Democrat having remarked that The News and Courier was mote of a Republican than a Democratic newspaper when it want- j ed to organize a new party with i President Taft as its head, the Sun wants to know if The Times and Democrat "thinks the News and Courier, heing so near a Republican paper, is a lit journal to criticise so true and tried a representative of the peopie as Asbury Francis Lever.'" Mr. Lever evidently has a better opinion of Republicans than the Sun, as he helped them to put the tax on lumber. As for The Times and Democrat, it doe:; not measure a man's veracity or worthiness hy his politics. So we would rule that The News and Couner is a compe tent witness in the case of a Demo cratic Congressman who is caught breaking his party pledge and voting for a Republican protective measure. We are sorry we can't agree with the Sun that Republicans are not com petent witnesses. CLASSIFIED COLUMN One-half Cent a Word Found Notices Free. Wanted?Someone to begin training for a nurse.
