Governor Bleasete .arraignment of Senator Tillmahv lor violating the law by serving as a United States Senator and a trustee of Clemson and Winthrop at the* Jsame time gives great i?atisfaction thdse; folks who have always-fought l3eh?tor Tillman. it is the only'act ?f Governor Blease that these enemies of Tillman have endorsed so far. ??"? This is a wealthy nation, b?t one gets some idea of-horn- unevenly that . wealth is distributed in the -fact that one person out of nine in New Yatk; icity.gets charitable relief every year. Of course the conditions-there are somewnat peculiar, but none the less ; the" truth remains that the great mass; Of wealth is concentrated ia the Itands of a few people. It 1s the irony of fate for New; Orleans to have her ambition4 to have, the Panama Canal Exposition bald.1 there squelched by the Republicans In the House. It served her just right for defeerting her own people nnd .going over to the Republicans and helping.them pass the iniquitous tariff law to rob the people. Some people are always going to do some act of mercy, some charita ble deed, extend a helping hand, and say loving words?by and by. They are like the ?irl who, walking along a path bordered by beaut'tful flowers, said she would pick some on her re turn, but who never returned along the same path. Better, by far, do the kind things and say the cheering word now for we may not return by the same way. Am^-ioart residents in Japan have crganired a Peace Society. A big tneetir- was held recently at Yco hama. ii which leading business min .participated and much enthusiasm ?was displayed. If there is no dan ger of war between the United States end Japan, why should a Peace So ciety be formed in Japan by the Americans who are over there ex jloiting that country? With the country defrauded it so many millions by the sugar trust, and so many millions by tobacco an<i other trusts, on* cannot but spec.ilar? as to the total amount the coi-hiv has been victimized each year Ann yet With all this plundering and rob bery scarcely a principal offender has I sen brought to book. Immunity bts, legal subterfuges and other cc veniences 'have seemed to inter fc. j with the course of justice. "he plague which is now killing r asands of Chinamen daily dan..* b k to a few centuries before Christ, *?? ' in one form or another it has vis i' \ Asia and Europe time and again v;Jh disastrous results. In the mid o") of the fourteenth century it ap I ared as the Black Death, an in t -sion which left its monstrous t acks in literature and. art and even in institutions of government and 'doctrines of religion. On that occa sion it killed millions of people. Blease Was Wrong. There is mo doubt about Governor (Blease being in the wrong when be refused to appoint the man recom mended by the Chief Justice ot! the Supreme Court and substituted.^ an other man of his own choice to act as judge in holding the Richland Court. ? The law-provides that when ft Cir cult.Oourtte be holden and vacancy for'any ca.use, in yudgeshlp exists, "The chief justice or presiding asso ciate justice may' assign any other circuit judigVdisehgaged ,to hold tie courts of such circuit. In the event that there be.no other circuit judge disengaged, then the governor, upon the recommendation of the Supreme Court, or the chief justice thereof, shall immediately commission as special judge such, person learned in the law as shah be recommended to. hold courts of such circuit or to hold such special court:-- for that term ?only.'! It will be seen that the law is vury plain on the subject, and Governor Blease has no right to disobey it. Not even to reward his friends, which point he stresses in.refusing to ap noiht- the man recommended by Chief Justice Jones. In taking the action .he did, Governor Blease mi;ght eiuse a great deal of trouble by hav ing cases tried before a -judge who In not legally appointed. The legal ity of our courts'"is a matter that vitally concerns every citizen of the State. ?Governor Blease has- arraigned Senator Tlllman and others iis vio lators of the law for holding two official positions and has called on the General Assembly to enforce the law, which he claims has been vio lated by Senator Tlllman and others. Governor Blease may be right In get ting after Senator Tilhnan and oth ers for violating the law by holding two official position, but this does not excuse him for violating the law in a more serious way than he charges on Senator Tlllman and others. He has no more right to violate the laws than any one else. ' Naming the Farm. 0 "' Give the farm a name and keep the farm up to the name. A name gives distinction, it is an expression of honest pride, it shows an interest in the place. It means something more than so many acres of brown earth, a dwelling and barns. It means a place that one feels is in best sense the home of himself and his family. Sentiment gathers around it and crystallizes so that at last the owner does not so much ask in declining years, "How much can I-get for my farm?" .but,."Who ingoing to suc ceed mo on it?" And that means much, for it means a deepening and strengthening of home ties .and those of locality, all of which is . greatly needed "in our Amferican rural li?2 But lor practical reasons as well as sentimental It Is wise to bestow a name upon the farm. No self-re specting man would give a good name to his i.'arm and then not keep the farm in good condition. The sense of pride and of the fitness of things would impel the farmer and his fam ily to do their best. That, would mean better civilization, house and barns painted, fences in gopd repair, better stock and better crops) and a more attractive- /appearance within and without the dwelling. There is scarcely a farm, however situated) but some appropriate name may be given it. The landscape, a] spring, clump of trees; position, his* toric associations are among the many things that aaay suggest/the name. And always remember this that it is with the farmer more than with any one else; rests the solution of the problem, of arresting the drift city-; wards.1 ? An- attractive home, a home, that has a distlnctlveness- about it goes a long way towards the solution. Fighting the. White Plague. - Nearly $-15,00 0,000 was. spent in the campaign against consumption in this country hist year? according to the figures of the National Associa tion for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis. As the New ^ork World says the amount ia nearly dou ble that devoted to this beneficent use in 1909 and almost attains the proportions of a war budget; it would indeed have built two Dreadnoughts of the Connecticut or Kansas type. Little more than a quarter of a cen tury has elapsed since Koch's discov ery of the tubercle baccllus made possible a systematic attack on the disease, anci it is mainly within the last ten years that the fight has been carried on under' international co operation. As an exhibit of society's progress in the "moral equivalent of war," the campaign against the'white plague must| rank among the great achievements of the wonderfrl first decade- of the twentieth century. Fi nally the white pla?ue, which is the most destructive enemy of the human race, will be conquered and will en tirely disappear from the earxh. Rapid strides pre being made toward this most desirable consummation now by the successful fight chat is being nuade by all the nations of the earth. It will take a little time, but this dreaded enemy of the human family is doomed. ' Poor Old Depew. Poor old Chauncey Depew, who represents the trusts and big coi Jporauons in the United States senate jas a senator from New York, has I grown real pessimistic since the peo jple turned him down in the last elec tion by electing a Democratic legis lature, and sees great and lasting .trouble to the country if the propo sition to elect senators by popular vote is carried into effect. This is what he predicted in the sen*:.': the other day, when it had that proposi tion under consideration. "This resolution, as reported from the judiciary committee," said De pew, "seems to permit the States to disfranchise large classes of their electors. It virtually repeals the fourteenth and fifteenth amendmetir? to the constitution. The next cry will be 'why not elpct the inprAme court of the United States by p puiar vote? Why not'elect the federal ;u dicirary everywhere, by a popular vote?'" ; But a few short years ago, when j the trusts were more .completely in ;the saddle, when the corporations !held sway in the legislatures of the States, when the big insurance com panies spent the policyholders'' mon ; ey to elect candidates of the interests, j when no one dared to "raise a voice j against the greed of the' tariff. ,ba irons, Chauncey Mitchell Depew went up and down the country as the spec ial agent of optimism. Everything was all right then. But now, says The Commoner, when the "bnck-to-the-people" move ment is showing sign's-of real life, w.hen the common people are withm sight of popular government, every thing tdrns into <? iark, damp gloom, and the distinguished senator begins to fear that the American peoole, af ter all, are really net ready for self government. Boor old Depew de serves sympathy. He has represent ed the trusts and big corporations sc long that he c?.n see no good in any thins else. The State of South Carolina?Coun ty of Orangeb?rg.
