LaFollette) .believes in a protective tariff while W if son believes in a tariff for rev enue. The business men of Orangeburg never indulge in hot air. When they .want to put through an enterprise .they are willing to go down in their pockets to pay for it. That is what 'they did about that steamer for the Edisto River. What will the business | 'men of Charleston do? . Representative McKmley, of Cali fornia, a Cannonite, whom the voters of bis distrct have decided they can tetter do wthout, is engaged by the Republican Congressional comiuivtee to stump Virginia, North Carolina -and Tennessee; probably on the theory that he can't do. very m\i-~l< harm in those states. \ -. ?Henry Neil, of Chicago, secretary of the'National Probation League, ?has taken out bars, bolts aud locks J from his house and invites burglars to call at any hour of the night and wake him and he will serve refresh-1 ?meats and have a little business ch it with them. He says locks and iron ?bars are relics of a barborous age. It sometimes makes all the differ ence in the world whether ft is your-1 seif or some other person that is ac tively interested in some subject ?r person. It it is yourself, you *re taoved by a spirit of investigation and a thirst for knowledge. If it is some other person, it may be nothing | .but idle or mischievous curiosity. Col. Murphy, who was appointed postmaster, of Augusta, must' have h'een an independent Democrat, which means . a Republican who has not the courage of his convictions ?for fear of pecuniary loss. The tat ?salary connected with the postmas . fership . accounts for the Colonel's finding the courage of his convic tious. . The Florence Times says it can not agree with mera'.e's of the Itar that there is a necessity for an in crease of the number of justices it the supreme court. If the Tim.v ?will investigate the subject a little, it will change its mind. Tue jus tices of the supreme court are the hardest worked officials in the Stane, and the number should he increased. Louisiana will have to be up and doiug if it is to capture the Pan ama International Exposition of the ?year 1915. A special session of the California legislation has proposed two amendments to the state consti tution which will allow an addi'iou ?1 $10.000.000 for the financing of the Exposition, and over $7.000,000 has already been provided by private ?ubsci^otion. (Col. T. D. Murphy, of Augus'd. {recently made postmaster of that city by President Taft, has been ap pointed one of the delegates to repre sent the Republican Club of Georgia at the national convention of Repub lican clubs to meet in New York. The Macon News says it had been labor ing under the impression that Coj. fMurphy was a Democrat. He passed es such before he was appointed. We have no faith whatever in Roosevelt's profession of reform. He talked the same way when he was Preoident, but made no effort. We ?believe he is simply trying to put himself nt the head of Insurgents in the Republican party for the pur poses of self aggrandizement. When he gets well in the saddle, he will ?heal the breach in the Republican party on any terms the standpats ?will accept . if they will let him (boss the reunited patry. What Will Charleston Do? The business men of this city have pledged the $10,000 necessary to put the first steamer on the Edisto River as soon as it is made navigable by the United State government. This shows the interest the business men of this city have in the opening of the Edisto River to navigation and trafifcc. The business men of Orange burg can be depended, on to do their full share -in an enterprise of this kind, but they should not be ex pected to do it all. It seems to us up here that it is about time Charleston was awaken ing up and doing her share in putting through a project that Mayor Rhett. says "is greater to the interest of Charleston than for the interest ol Orangeburg." We believe this to be true, but, if we judge by the interest the Charleston business men have taken in the project, we are forced to the conclusion that they' are not interested in the opening of che Ed* isto River to navigation at all. As far as we. know they have ab? solutely done no.thing to help along the project since it was inaugurated by the people of this city and county. In Thursday's issue. The News and Courier says "Capt. Adams' report is now complete, and is only being held over to see how much interest the Orangeburg merchants will dis play in the proposition." It took some gall to make that statement in the face of the fact that Charleston has done nothing herself to make Capt. Adams believe that she wants the Edisto River opened up to nav igation. The business men of Orangeburg have pledged the money to build the first -steamer. Will the business men j of Charleston pledge the money to build the second steamer? In the face of Mayor Rhett's statement, which he backs up with a five hun dred dollar subscription to build the second steamer, there should be no hesitation on the part of Charles ton's business men to pledge the $10,000 necessary to convince the government that they are interested in the project. The News and Courier's statement should be amended so as to read: "Capt. Adams' report is now com plete, ,and is only being held over to see how much interest the Charles ton merchants will display in the proposition.' The Orangeburg bus iness men have shown their interest, and they would like to know what Charleston is going to do toward pro viding steamers for th& river when it is opened for navigation? For that purpose some of Orangeburg's busi ness men will visit Charleston next Tuesday. . v What Teddy Cost. ?The New York World Is showing up Roosevelt's record in a way that that gentleman does not relish. In his New Nationalism, as he calls it, Roosevelt says he believes in mak ing campaign contributions public be fore as well as after elections, but when the World calls on him to make the names of the contributors to his campaign of 1904 public he declines to do so. His refusal to. stick to his word shows his hypocricy. The World then shows how ex pensive Rooseveltism has been to the American people. It says the total expenditures of the United States Government from the inaugurations Washington in 1789 to the beginning of the civil war in 1861 were $1, 795,273.344.14. The appropriation bills signed by Theodore Roosevelt during his second .term in the White House, from March 4, 1905, to, 1909, authorized expenditures amounting to $3,522.982, 816.87. Four years of Rooseveltism cost twice as much as the first seventy two years of the republic! One term of Theodore Roosevelt took twice as much money out of the pockets of the American people as the combin ed terms of Washington, Adams, Jefferson, Madison, Monroe, John Quincy Adams, Jackson, Van Buren, Harrison, Tyler, Polk, Taylor, Fill more, Pierce and Buchanan. During the seventy-two years cov ered by the administrations of those fifteen Presidents the United States government paid the Revolutionary war debt incurred by the States. It paid the cost of the war 1S12. It paid the cost of the Mexican war. It bought Louisiana. It bought Flori da. It paid for the Gadsden Pur chase. It acquired all that vast ex tent of territory from the Mississippi river to the Pacific ocean. What have the American people got to show for the four years of Rooseveltism which cost double the money. And what would be the cost of four years more of Rooseveltism under the New Nationalism? are some of the pointed questions asked by the World, and .which the friends of Roosevelt find it very difficult to ans wer. But the people will answer when they get a chance to do so, and the answer will not be to Ted dy's liking either. A Word to Farmers. The State says "cotton growers should bear in mind that cotton will keep. The merchant who buys it now, intending to hold it until June. 1911, knows that it will lose weight and that he will lose the interest on the money locked in it until it is used. Therefore, the merchant or banker expects the cotton to enhance in price sufficiently to at least cover the loss n holding it. "The farmer who is able to hold cotton may safely act upon the same reasoning, and if the requisite num ber of farmers hold, so that the mar keting of the crop will be distributed throughout the period of twelve months, the producers will be factors in fixing prices. If the bulk of the cotton prases from the farmers to the middlemen and manufacturers during the harvest season, the far mers will be eliminated as price makers." It would be well for the farmers to bear in mind what The State says. It is good, sound advice. After a farmer pays what he owes, he should hold what cotton he may have then i until- the price of the staple suits ' him. In this way a fair price for j cotton will be maintained, but if the ' farmers put all their cotton on the j market between now and January the I pr|ce will go down and the specula tors will reap a rich harvest. cmsm column One-half Cent a Wort Found Notices Free.
