Senator Bailey may be a great
man, but the Democratic party would
be better off if he would go bag and
bag&inge into the Republican camp,
wherci he really belongs. He will
land :bere sooner or later.
Th> refusal of Gov. Blease to
commission Old Confederate Veter
ans who have been recommended for
office by legislative delegations, will
make enemies for him among the old
veterans in all parts of the State.
Teddy was in Atlanta the other
night, and made a speech before the
Southern Commercial Congress, in
which he referred to the fact again
that he was "half Southern.'' That
is true, but it won't t,*t him any
votes; in the South.
To the great honor of the profes
sion, physicians have generally
proved themselves equal to every de
mand, says the State.. A patient in
a' (Montreal hospital was dying for
want of blood, and his | physician
cheerfully gave up a pint of his own
tb sjive his life.
Tie employment of negro firemen
on the Cincinnati, New Orleans and
iWas Railway has caused a strike
of white firemen on that road. The
ritriVo was ordered from Cincinnati,
wh'ich shows' thai ? the prejudice
against the negro on trains'is not
confined to the South.

The Chicago Record-Herald,
standing itself in the front rank of
journalism, voluntarily declares that
rale Tribune, another newspaper in
its''town,' led In a great fight for the
right, and to have won the gratitude
of all honest men in spite of the tem
porary failure to bar Lorimer from
the Senate.
The Raleigh Times says "Senator
Balljy acted like a naughty child
who had been spanked. He poutea
about it until he was petted suffic
iently to put him in good humor
ag&ih. His conduct of Saturday is
entirely unwortny the great states
man fron Texas and he will regret
it as long as he lives.
dSabens, aider and abetter of rob
ben:, who was recently pardoned by
Gov. Blease, had been refused a par
don by Gov. Ansel, and Judge Gary,
(before whom Rabens had been con
victod, said that he could find noth
ing in the petitions, numerous as
they were, to warrant his recom
mending a pardon. Why he found
favor in the eyes of Gov. Blease is
not known, as he has given no reas
on for pardoning him.
Slince January 17 Governor Blease
has granted pardons to 21 prisoners.
He has refused pardons to 12 and
commuted the sentence of eight pris
oners. He has many cases under con
sideration. In a majority of the
caiies, he acts on the old petitions
pr<:aiented to Governor Ansel and
which were refused. If the Governor
ke'yps on at this rate he will surpass
tho Record made by Gov. Patterson,
of Tennessee, as a granter of pardons.
The pardon of Rabens is a grave
m stake on the part of Governor
Blease. Rabens was convicted of be
in; the silent partnpr of a lot of afe
blowers and crooks, who operated in
Lh is State a few years ago. He would
receive and conceal the things that
tbe? thieves would steal and entrust
to him for a share of them. To carry
out their plans the crooks he operat
ed with, would not hesitate to com
mit murder. Several of them are
now in the penitentiary.
John Sharp Williams, formerly the
leader of the Democratic minority in
the House and now a Senator from
Mississippi, says: "I was in Con
gress seventeen years, and in all that
time I never knew three men of fair
Intelligence from New York, Chica;o
a:jd Philadelphia combined. When a
bill gets the reputation of having
Now York and Chicago behind it, it
has as much chance as an anti-farm
ers'-union candidate for justice of the
peace at Benton, Miss." Evidently
Senator Williams pins his faith to
tie country-bred boy.
The Greenville News seems to
tbink that Senator Tillman has
changed his opinion on the primary
(luestion because he Toted in the
Eiemate against the resolution to
change the constitution so as to al
low United States Senators to be
elected by direct vote of the people,
itenator Tillman, we think, voted
against the resolution because it gave
it he F ederal Government the right to
(supervise the election of Senators.
'Those of us who can remember the
days of reconstruction, and the sup
ervision of our elections by United
states Deputy Marshals, agree with
Senator Tillman in voting to kill the
resolution. We do not want any
more such elections in the South.
Compliments Its Cotpmporary.
In commenting on the Lorlmer
scandal the |New York World says
the Senate has "vindicated" that
vote buying Senator, and asks who
will vindicate the Senate? The Rec
ord-Herald, published in the city of
Chicago, says of course the Senate
will never be vindicated. "It is self
condemned for all time, and it is a
pleasant relief to turn from that au
gust body to the press, and particu
larly to the Chicago Daily Tribune,
which affords us a most refreshing
contrast." The Record-Herald tb,en
goes on to say:
"The Tribune feels the disgust ot
all honorable men and all honorable
newspapers for White and his kind,
but it printed White's confession and
investigated White's charges from a
sense of public duty. It took up a
case that abounded in risks and per
plexities and revolting features, tht
outcome of which was extremely
doubtful, because it believed that
there was corruption in the legisla
ture of Illinois that should be ex
posed and cast out for the salvation
of the State.
"The Record-Herald app.'auds its
motives, its resourcefulness, !ts cour
age, and its perseveraL.ce against all
the powerful interests that came to
the aid of the experts in bribery.
While the Senate openly gathers in
and cherishes the fruits of corrup
tion. The Tribune has the satisfac
tion of knowing that it has fought a
good fight, that it has done the State
and the country a great service, thai
it has prevented the spread of a foul
disease, and so earned the gratitude
of the press and the people."
It was the Chicago Tribune that
first called attention te the Lorimer
bribery scandal and exposed the
bribe-takers and bribe-givers, who it
pursued until they were brought to
justice, and it is really refreshing to
hear another great Chicago newspa
per praising it for its action, as the
Record-Herald does in the article
quoted above. The Tribune would
have been handsomely rewarded to
keep its mouth shut, but it saw its
duty and did it regardless of conse
quences to itself. All honor to such
newspapers. May their number in
crease.
A Cure for Worry.
The Rev. Charles Stelze says a
great many of us worry because we
are drifters, and have no definite
plans in life. In other words, we
have cut loose from our moorings
and have thrown both chart and
compass into the sea and are drift
ing, hither and thither. We are like
the fellow who said, "I don't knovr
where I'm going, hut I'm on the
way." Or like the dog that sat, lone
ly, in the railroad station because he
had chewed up his tag.
It doesn't matter so much what
your occupation may be?whether it's
in the home, the farm, the school,
the office, the shop of store?your
life will be immensely relieved from
anqiety and the petty worries If you
have some big ideal, ;.he striving af
ter which makes every little worry
seem like the pebbles on the highway
to the strong traveler who is jour
neying home. These are mere inci
dents in his progress and he is mind
ful of them because of the goal just
beyond.
It is definiteness, then, which
brings calmness. The assurance that
one is on the way and not merely
drifting brings courage in times 01
storm. With not a ship in sight and
no land to be seen anywhere, with
nothing but a waste of water all
about, the captain of the ocean
steamer is nevertheless calm and se
rene. His course is worked out. He
has a compass which directs bim ana
a chart to show him the way.
It's a mighty good thing, once in
a while, to stop and ask yourself,
"What is the purpose of my life? Is
there anything towj?*d which I am
working? Or is life merely a suc
cession of daily jobs?" This is all
true, and we commend it to our
young men of all conditions In life.
If you want to get along and accom
plish anything, have definite, well di
gested plans and your success is as
sured. It may not come In a gallop,
but It will come, certain and sure.
Saved by Lame Ducks.
The New York GHobe ant1 Adver
tiser says there is one comforting
circumstance in connection with the
roll call in the Senate in the Lorimer
scandal, and that is that the friends
of purity and decency in American
public life need not accept it as filial.
The honor of the Senate may be re
stored. The law permits and public
policy requires the next Senate to
throw out its diseased member.
The Globe and Advertiser calls at
tention to the fact that ten Senators
who vcted for Lorimer were retired
to private life on March 4, and that
really he was saved by the votes oi
these lame ducks, whose places In
the Senate will be taken by men
less disposed to excuse bribery as
a conventional crime, and a crime for
which a man should not be held to
strict account.
The furious zeal of Bailey and oth
er Lorimerites to get a vote at tne
late session was because of their
knowledge of what the next Senate
would do. They wanted to forestall
adverse judgment by pretending that
there had been an adjudication. The
Globe and Advertiser thinks that the
first duty of the new senate?a duty
it owes as much to itself as to the
country?is to reopen the Lorimer
case and to keep it open until it is
settled right.
We agree with the Globe and Ad
vertiser. No such a verdict as that
recorded in the Lorimer scandal
should be allowed t > stand If there
is any way to reopen it. Those lame
ducks, who had been repudiated cy
the peop'-e, and other men sent to
represent them in the Senate, should
not be allowed to decide the case and
force such a man as Lorimer on the
people as a Senator for six long
years.
