Tuesday, November 18, 1913. p" J We see from the Columbia papers that the manager of the opera house save will havA nn mors Dixon plays. Well, we don't know what is the matter with the Dixon plays? certainly with. "The Leopard's Spots," Mr Dixon is eminently correct. Our education of the negro is all wrong. The kind we are dosing: out to him. Wrong, viewed from the standpoint of the negro. We will find it out sooner or later, and Mr. Dixon is just trying to impress the truth before it is too late to be remedied without trouble. Why educate him away from the very things he must do. It is as much in the interest of the negro as the. white man that we speak. May be some people don't want to see the truth. The recent death of Col. George R. j Rembert, of Columbia, has called fortli expressions of sympathy from every section of the State. Not a great many men in South Carolina at his age had reached the prominence to which he had attained. His ambition was to be 1 governor of his State?as laudable ! oc onv frno CAn Af QAH pQf- 1 aniLniuu ao auj v,x ova wu* olina could entertain. As Governor Blease said in the touching tribute which he paid his departed friend, it were idle now to discuss what his political future might hare been. He was a hard fighter, and he wras true to his friends and to his ideals. His j passing nas caused genuine sorow in the hearts of a great many true Carolians who were his personal friends and political supporters, and, "To live in tie hearts of those we leave behind, Is not to die." We publish an Interview today with Gov. Blease on the tick eradication proposition to ask the legislature to appropriate $40,000 to carry on the work. It is an important work and ' wa asrree with Gov. Blease that it' would seem tliat Clemson college might do this work and it would then be using some of the privilege tax for a direct benefit to the farmer. The first appropriation for this work in ; this State was made some seven years ago when the editor of this paper, then a member of the legislature, secured an amendment to the appropriation bill setting aside from the funds of Clemson college $5,000 to carry on the work in connection with the federal government. With the income that Clemson has we should think that a sufficient appropriaton couid fee made from these funds to carryon this very important work. TO OUR SUBSCRIBERS AND CONTESTANTS. We desire that the contest which is now on with The Herald and News * shall be absolutely fair to all contestants. We are satisfied that the same thing is desired by the manager. If a subscriber should pay at the office and desires his subscription to count for some contestant he must make it known at the time or Davment. otherwise credit wrill positively not be given. Either have your vote counted when you pay or pay to the contestant. We cannot give credit on old receipts for subscriptions even if they are only recently old. Have your votes counted when you pay or hand your pay to the contestant. Gov. Blease says that a very important matter wnich should receive the consideration of the legislature is the establishment of a tuberculosis hospital. In this we agree most heartily and we might say that such an institution has ^een part of ihe plans in the minds of the members of the State hospital commission in connection with the development of the new hospital for the insane at State park. This property is *n ideal location lor such an institution and it was the purpose of the commission to ta lish a tuberculosis colony, a: the legislature had given the money carried in the estimate for the work at State Park such a colony would j now have been under way. We have never thought that Presi-' dent Wilson was trying to use the ; federal patronage for South Carolina in the interest of any of the candidates or prospective candidates in South Carolina, but there seems to be j little douDt tnat tne senators are ur | ing so to use it. For that reason we ! have thought that the president j should go on and make the appoint- j ments if the senators cannot agree, j Interference from Washington has never helped the cause of any candidate in this State for any office that (he might seek. Except that it has helped to defeat the one undertaking to run South. Carolina politics from i Washington. Ml I We have Deen informed that Super- j visor Chappell has decided to put the j good roads machine in winter quar- j iters at the poor farm. We only wish || | he had reached this decision ueiuie : l the road between Newberry and Lit! tie Mountain had been put in the i condition it is by an attempt to use j it on this road. If he will take the { money he was spending in operat- j ing this machine and get a few good ' mules and some scrapes and drags * r-rvo/l >10 "will dO a i !f(Cfl ?jC\) (JVCi ULUO JL VUU uv service to the cause of good roads in \ this county. The road is much worse since the machine went over it that it was before. All the grass and weeds and sand and mud that was in t'he ditches along side the road has j been piled in the middle of the road [ and left in mounds from four inches ! I to a foot high and the condition of the J | road is something fearful to behold and something more fearful to drive over. The other roads that have been worked by the chain gang and free labor are in good condition and will remain so if the people will just take a little interest and have a little pride and drag them occasionally. But deliver us from that road machine. * . ' Everything seems dreadfully and distressingly quiet about those improvements at Rosemont Not even " ' kind of a a taint uuit^ ui a kuuwvw ?? ? ? ? noise, from the trustees or any wo- I man's organization or the civic asso? ciation.

Cheshire, candidate for | congress from this district againsft Mr. Fred H. Dominick, has begun the ! publication of a new newspaper at Anderson. Colonel Cheshire has on-* ly recently sold tlie Anderson mtein-1 gencer which he was conducting. He j is a success as a newspaper man. The name of the new paper is Cheshire's Harpoon, which sounds bright and : life-like, and the first issue looks all right. No doubt he will make a nanpr of it. Of course he is go ? ing to work it for all it is worth in his own interest as a candidate for J congress against Mr. Dominick, hut i Col.
