The woman suffragists are not to have everything their way, it seems, as far as agitation goes. A National As sociation Opposed to Woman Suffrage has been organized, and "The Woman's Protest," a publication devoted to voicing the cause of the opposition, has been started. In a recent number, "The Woman's Protest'' gave the following statement of the faith and aims of the organization: "Our aim is to co2:serve the home, to conserve motherhood, to conserve womanhood. We seek to preserve all that is best in the old order of things, to incorporate what is excellent in the - ? J. new; we seek to continue our pari, ui the foundation of the social fabric j along these lines and not along the j lines of economic independence for all j women, of socialism, of feminism." These certainly are admirable ob-1 jects and should appeal to the large j proportion of our womankind as of our mankind that cling to the old fash- j ions, in sentiment, customs and con- j ^ --1- x ~ *? V\ s\4- f /-\v? I ditions ana preier noi 10 see uui ucuci . angels plunged into the vortex of poli- j tics.?Columbia Record. We give our hearty endorsement to this statement of faith and principles. When the women of the country get out from under that set of principles which go "to conserve the home, to conserve motherhood, to conserve womanhood," then the country will soon 1 marching in the wrong direction j ~nd the end will not be far distant for j our institutions, iveep out ot pontics, build up tee home, that is the sphere of true womanhood. The home is the foundation of society and when you once destroy it?and a good way to accomplish its destruction is for the wo- j man to get into politics?you are undermining the very foundations of our government. If "The Woman's Protest" keeps on preaching this doctrine and stands by it it wil? accomplish a great deal in the preservation of the 1 republic. I I Graft! There is a great uproar in , the democratic party in New York State. Tammany Hall accuses Gover* nor Sulzer of not having complied with the law in reporting his campaign con- i tributions. Tammany talks of impeaching the governor, or putting him J in jail on the charge of perjury. From j -he big headlines in some of the news- i papers it would look as if Tammany .1 r - jiiu iormea a conspiracy with the yel- ; low sheets to drive the governor out1 of office. Don't let the people be fool-' ed. Tammany is not upset because j Governor Sulzer, knowingly or un-; knowingly, violated a law. It wants \ control of the $500,000,000 of State expenditures. It wants the offices, but more than all, it wants the profitable contracts for road improvements, for State buildings, for prisons and other purposes. When Governor Sulzer refused to hend to Murphy and proclaimed himself the State leader of the de mocracv, Tammany declared that he lad written his death warrant. The ! governor proposes to challenge Tammany Hall from one end of the State Ao the other. At last he has met or-j "anization with organization. The one | 'l^ing that the governor sorely lacked j :n his fight against Tammany had been j in organization behind him. Gover or Hill was a successful leader of the \>w York democracy because of his -kill and courage as an organizer. He was ready to fight and he knew how to fight. Let Governor Sulzer take a page out of David B. Hill's campaign book. In his fight against Tammany Hall the people are with him, but let him be-nn by frankly acknowledging any shortcomings. Next to courage the i -^eople admire frankness.?Leslie's Weekly. That is the way it appears to us. | If Gov. Sulzer had let Tammany get its ; finger on these various budgets and i i positions he would have been a big man. Of course, that does not excuse \ Gov. Sulzer from any wrong doing of which he may be guilty, but the evi- ! lence should be weighed very care-1 fully. The people love to be fooled, however, and they may be in this case again. Somehow we never did have :nuch respect or much of an opinion of a snuealer. I I t rom the way The Newberry News and Herald talks it seems to think that from something the Washington correspondent of The News and Courier said in reference to the apoointment of Senator Weston as United States district attorney that *he democratic administration at Washington, at whose head is President Wilson, intended to dictate to ihc people of South Carolina whom ! they should elect United States sen- j ator next summer. We don t think j the Newberry paper need be unnecessarily alarmed. President Wilson is not the kind of a ma a to try to coerce i t'.:e people of a sovereign State. So ; 1 lour Newberry friend, we are sure, i need not set unduly wrought up over the matter.?Lancaster News. | We are not alarmed "unnecessarily" ' or otherwise. "We only quoted what was printed in -the Xews and Courier as a Washington special. We have learned since that it was really an Associated Press dispatch. And we stated if this information1 is correct in its I assignment of the reason for Mr. Weston's selection there has been brought to light an unwarranted effort of the administration to dictate | to South Carolina and we added that we have no doubt the free white vot- j ers of this State will place their j : stamp of disapproval in no uncertain ^ terms. What we said was based upon tfne statement from Washington as carried by the Xews and Courier. We are not at all alarmed, but we have no reason to change what we have al-' -roo/^v cai'd VUUJ VMAVt* We will repeat the statement from ! Washington: "It is said, however, that one of the reasons for the seleqtion of Mr. Wes-: ton was to show indirectly that the 1 administration would favor the re- [ election of Senator Smith, who goes! i before tfhe voters of South Carolina in j the primary next August.'' We have been loath to believe that I the administration in vvasnmgton would have anything to do with State politics down here and we do not yet believe that President Wilson has time | or inclination to meddle because he : has more important matters, but such ! dispatches have the same moral ef- j feet as if he should undertake to med- j die, especially when carried by a reputable newspaper. But they will prove a boomerang. There is a Jolly street in Newberry.! How anybody could have the courage ! to give a Newberry street a name of j that kind is a mystery.?Rock Hill Herald. No mystery about it at all. Why! i should you think so? We are a jolly' good lot over this way. Come over ' and we will prove it to you and take you down and show you this j goodly community which has this' good name. Twenty-three South Carolina conn-! ties will have fairs this fall. In this \ connection it will be observed that it i is twenty-three for the other twenty- j one counties. They didn't get in line and will have to go away back. Perhaps, however, it will be for a year on- j ly, as they may get in line by next j fall.?Rock Hill Herald. In the good old days of the long ago, I Newberry county had one of the best county fairs of any county in the State, but somehow the thing died. How about reviving it. A county fair is a good thing for a county if properly conducted. i The Herald is working every day for the upbuilding of Rock Hill anc'l York j county. What other agency, unles it; be the chamber of commerce, is giving*] a large part of its efforts three hun- j dred and thirteen days in each year, for , this purpose? The distinguished citi- j zen who said that the town could af-; ford to srive the Herald $5,000 in cash! every year for its free service to the j community and county was not far i wrong. A daily newspaper, properly ; conducted and willing to render ser- j vice, is worth so much to any com-! munity that the community can afford ' to pay almost any .price rather than ' to do without its services.?Hock Hill Herald. The chamber of commerce is not in it with a live and good newspaper. I V r-? r\ lrr* am* a r> ATt*nr\0 -r\ ! VCL, vuu rvnu N> , uc?^^a^cio have been doing so much patriotic service that the people have come to ' look upon it as a matter of course jand if you should dare to suggest any | charge for it.they would think it outIragecus. You should print the pic| ture of that live man?he is a live | man?who suggested that the town j could afford to pay the local paper for |its work in the advancement of the j 'town. His memory should be preserv- I : ^u. Most of the men who have been ; made by the newspaper soon forget the poor fellow who was fool enough to slave in this making, and he is scarcely considered when there is anything going around. "A new district, with an additional district attorney and marshal and oth er court officials, would be most acceptable to many persons in South Carolina. This is from a Washington special in regard to the proposition to have a new judicial district in South ui litLUCl LU Lilt 1II.WJH.1; by the attorney general of the U. ited States that away back in is22 1 there was a law passed that we have I two districts in South Carolina. The attorney general is very obliging to | the two South Carolina senators, in : that he has gone to work to look up j the law and has discovered that the ; solution can be reached by appointling two sets of court officials. That ; would be nice, and "rery acceptable to 7)10 oranilfmpn who ffot the iobs. We ' notice already that there are a number of distinguished lawyers going afj ter the judgship. What will be done j about that. It certainly was very kind and considerate of Attorney General McReynolds to stop in the midst of the du ties of a busy office and dig back through the dusty statutes to 1822 to find that he could help the South Carolina senators out of a hole and satisfy a few hungry office seekers by appointing two sets instead of one. "We have litt?e dcubt that there will be a third set just as hungry for the job as the two, and just as able and deserv; *1, ? ^v.tirtn nf +V10 lrin^ anr! Xilg UC VUUJ.UTl c? uu-\ \j?. 1.14V obliging attorney general. It may be that the two senators have only two lawyers in ine State that they care to have places provided for. And of course the attorney general, according to the Washington reports, is only trying *o help out the senators. Altogether the situation is rather amusing. What does the gentleman who pre- j bides at the White House have to say j about it. He better take our sugges-1 lion ana appoint m. jttuueugt; jaiveis, a good lawyer and fine gentleman and let the senators fight it out.
