Gov. Foss," of Massachusetts, his
convictions on the tariff and othor
economic measures, aud be does n?t
mind telling the people what thay
are. That accounts for his popu
larity.
.People don't believe in fairies
these days but there are lots of good
spirits in the world that brighter;

is Lrfve.
Now that the elections are over
people can again center their thouiUt
on football, the ' Elkins-Abruzzi af
fair, the doings of Pittsburg and!
^Newport society and other important
matters.
TThe attempt to revise some of tbi
old hymns 'that are hallowed by ten

multitudes who have sung them and
felt their power is about as aus.rd
as would be an attempt to revis/. one

fragrance of a truv, unselfis.i char
acter.
Foss is going to give the IJeput
?licans in Massachusetts a great deal
of trouble before he is done with
them. This is plainly evidenced by
the way he has attacked Senator
Lodge, who must come out 'n '".he
open and fight or give up his seat in
the Senate.

That legislator in an eastern state
who says that in the legislature
"he expects .to raise the devil," will
probably ? not tind that a difficult
taik. It is usual'ly far unr:: tiiMicult
to get the devil down af'or be has
been raised. The attempt -,o rsuirin
some legislatures is proof of ? that
fact.
Whatever may be the ininiedi'ito
feeling, whether disappointment
or elation. ;,a the result of C-i re
cent election t.. ;-*r<: is the tru' . aud
abiding conviction thai every politi
cal party has at heart the welfare
of tlit nation. If mistakes an* made
they are of the judgment and n
of :ihe lieart.
One of the first act of the Demo
cratic House when it meet3 should
be to pass a law amending the con
stitution giving the people 'he r!ghl
to choose the United States Seoato-v
by popular vote, it would ^ass tho
Senate by the aid of the Insurgents,
and it would be up to President Taft
to sign or veto it.
Most people deal with unpleasant
tasks in the wrong spirit: They
postpone the performance of tu< m
as long as possible and tlieu :'o u in
a. balf-heartcd way. Sucli duties
rhould b'- ?llsubati.ed p.omptl.. tin!
with resoluteness of purpose. By
so doing many tasks lose much of
their disugreeablcness.

The expeditious andtboroughiy sat
isfactory trial of Crippeu is another
instance that proves that in legal and i
judicial matters England gives us an {
example that needs sadly to be fol
lowed In this land. Our trials and J
court proceedings with their innum
erable and absurd technicalities of
various kinds are ;i reproach and <>f
tentimes a scandal.
How easy it would have beeu to
make the recent anti-American riots'
in Mexico an excuse for jiugoism.
Doubtless there was plenty ?>f pic
vocation, but the calm sell-restraint :
of the authorities and of the nation
has been admirable and makes for
a satisfactory settlement of differ
ences. In these days instead of
sounding the tocsin at every lit ;-.'
trouble there is the overwhctmht'c
desire to keep peace, promote friend
ship and foster international trade
relations.
Why Not Our Bread?
"It-having been demonstrated that
South Carol'na is a great corn pro
ducing ? State, our farmers should
?now demonstrate that they can raise
their own bread, as well as their
own hog and' hominy. Mankind a
greatest struggle has been to obtain
bread. The failure to obtain it has
caused wars and overturned gov
ernments and destroyed dynasties.
The world for ages has been seeking
chead bread, and the cry for it
is ?iill heard, not only in this favor
ed land, but in every part of the
globe.
With all of our complex and ad
vanced civilization the cry for chea^
bread is still heard, and when we
all pass off the stage of human ac
tion those we leave behind us will
find one of the greatest problems
left 'them to solve is haw to make
bread economically and plentifully.
Wheat in all ages of the world has
been ithe chief .broad crop, and we
suppose will be to the~ end of time
No other crop is adopted to such a
wide ranee of soil and territory. It
is grown almost evreywhere, and f >r
that reason is the most valuable
crop known to man.
It is said that each year the world
consumes more 'than three billion
bushels of wheat. In the face of
facts like the above it behooves tae
South to raise its own bread, and
she will when ou'r.farmers fully real
ize 'the great advantage and great
value of'diversified farming. Some
writer has said that diversified
farming is the only key that will un
lock the chest of gold that lies hid
den in every acre of our land. That
this is true is fully attested by tfce
success of those farmers who have
practiced diversified farming.
I Having removed our corn cribs
from the West, we will soon re
move our smoke house from the
same quarter. The day is at hand
when the South will no longer see:<
its hominy or its hog in other lands,
for she is going to make these
things at home. Then why shou'1
she not remove her granary from tne
West too, and make her own bread 1
at home. When these things came
to pass, then, indeed, will the Soutn |
become that happy and prosperous
land that she was intended to be
by the reator Cwhen he created htr
House of l^ortls in Danger.
In spite of rumors to the con
trary the conference between the
lords and commons over the veto
question has ended in a. disagree
ment. Perhaps that is just as well
for a compromise ou a question in
which principle is involved is usual
ly unsatisfactory to all concerned.
Now the matter will have to be
threshed out in another general elec
tion in the near future, and the
probability is that the Liberals will
be returned with an increased ma
jority. If such should prove the
case drastic, dealings with the lords
would naturally follow.
With characteristic blindness to
their own true interests and those
of the people the lords have persist
ently blocked the way of reform,
and now the inevitable judgment
awaits them. The whole question 's
of more ithan passing interest to
Americans because of the growing
discontent with ^the present method
of choosing United States Senators.
While che question with us is not
nearly so acu'te as the British find
theirs jet the feeling exists that di
rect or popular election of senators
will prove an advantage in many
Ways. The House of Lords are in
danger.
England, while having a monar
chical form of government has in
fact one of the most Demopratic gov
ernments in the world. The House
of Lords seem to have lost sight of
this and have determined by ob
structing reforms which the people
are demanding, to commit political
suicide. The indications are that in
the near future the present heredi
tary House of Lords will be abolish
ed and a Senate similar to ours, with
i:he members elected by popular vote
will take its place. It is a wonder
that the House of Lords has stood
as k ?ns.' as it has, but it is n.ow
doomed. ?
Some or the Benson* Why.
During 'the recent meeting of the
Daughters of the American Revolu
tion in Orangeburg, we heard a num
ber of gentlemen discussing the ques
tion of hospitality, and the belilf
among them was that it is one of
the virtues of our Southland thai
is last vanishing. It was pointed
out that a large number of the
delegates were boarded at the ho
tels or boarding houses instead of
being entertained in the homes of
the generous people of the city. To
some extent what these gentlemen
said was well founded, but there
are good reasons why the hospitality
of our people is not as conspicuous
as in the old times. Today traveling
and hotel facilities are far superior
thau in olden times when for shelter
many a traveler was necessarily de
pondenl upon the generosity of some
pioneer settler. Then. too. the mul
tiplicity in these days of conventions!
and other gatherings of different
kinds make it impossible for private
families to keep open house for ev
ery one. BUI apart from this is if j
not possible that too orten when !
hospitality is displayed it becomes a |
burden to iKith bos; and giiesl be
cause the host or hostess makes t.io
elaborate preparation in the matter
of food and in other ways.' The!
grace of hospitality woulds be just I
as effectively shown by simpler ar-j
rangemeuis and it would mean great- !
er ease, comfort and pleasure for
Where Wiil It Kiicl'.'
How the stories of great men and"
women that were cherished in our
youth are being discarded by mod
ern day iconoclasts. Washington and
the cherry tree. William Teil, tlie
Mecklenburg Declaration ol Inde
pendence, the ride of Emily Geigen
Rebecca Motte burning her hom.e,
and other notable things that once
pointed a moral are now said to be
myths. Last of all it is said that
the celebrated French potter and ar
tist. Palissy, the story of whose hard
ships, persistence and ultimate suc
cess has been an inspiration to many,
was an impostor of the worst kind.
If this sort of thing goes on it will
next be said 'that Washington never
commanded the Continental army
nor crossed the Delaware, and that
Napoleon had been dead ten years
when Waterloo was fought.
