T'oo Pharlntrp Ohsorver ouerht no' to have any interest in South Carolina politics except that of bating the facts a& :hat newspaper may be able to gather them, and to comment upon those facts as the editor of '.hat newspaper may see fit to comment. A recent editorial in the Charlotte Observer about sizes up the political equation in Smith Carolina. It follows: "Governor Blease probably meant what he said when he gave it out that he will be elected to the United States senate by a large majority. He expects a be.ter snowing in tne State convention which meets in Columbia May 20. At that convention the rules for the primaries will be made. The primaries will be held throughout the Sta1 e August 25, and it is at these primaries that :he strength of Blease with the pe:ple wi'l be developed. Tne election which follows in November will be bir a ratification of the primaries. The political condi :ons in South Carolina are now not materially different from what they were in 1912." \ JOHN Yt. CANNON. In the death of Col. Jolin M. Cannon, of Laurens, South Carolina has sustained ihe loss of a worthy son. The very manner of his death, as well as the last words which passed his lips, 'testifies in no uncertain terms to what those who knew him know? that he was a Southern gentleman unafraid?and that is all that can be said of any man. The writer had known John Can noa in an official capacity and personally since Col. Cannon began the practice of law. A>: that time, sonre nine years ago, the writer was court stenographer, recently appointed, and Col. Cannon had just come to tt}* Laurens bar. A warm friendship began, which has lasted and will last. Col. Cannon was a man who made friendships and who held them because he deserved ;hem. He was popular because he deserved popularity. He was a man of honor and integrity, and he had the confidence of all who knew him. His death will be sincerely mourned, not only in Laurens county, but througout this State. J. X. A. / _ FRA>k K. HUMER. Governor Blease coulu not have selected a better man for the position than Mr. Frank R. Hun'ier as member of the board of regents of the State Hospital for the Insane. Business judgment, common sense, and a fine knowledge of men and affairs in this State, as well as devotion to duty and s'.rict attention to the matter in hand, are happily combined in Mr. Hunter's make-up. Congratulations to Governor Blease and to Mr. Hunter. S. C. UNIVERSITY NOTES. <$> <J> 3> <$><?><?> In the triangular debate with the universities of Virginia and Georgia, the University of South Carolina defeated the University of Virginia by a unanimous vote of the judges and lost to the University of Georgia by a 3 to 2 vote of the judges. The university baseball. team has returned from f:s northern trip and the season has ended, as but a short time intervenes before examinations.

After this meet the university's team will play Trinity college, Georgetown, atholic University, Johns Hopkins, and the United States Naval Academy. The new university catalogue has iome from the press and is now ready for distribution. The catalogue this year is one -of the most complete and attractive ever gotten out by ^he university. It may fee had upon application to Acting President A. C. Moore. Mary of the professors have been | out of the city the past week on i short visits t ) neighboring towns and cities to deliver addresses. A. T. Strar.on, secretary of the Columbia Y. M. C.

The adJ dress was both interesting and ini structive, and was enjoyed by a large ' a :d appreciative audience. "A tribute to Doctor Edward S Jjynes on His 80th Birthday" is the j title of the last publication to come from the university press. Copies oi this may be had upon application tc , the ac:ing president of the university Roscoe Evans, u. s. c. Tomato Club Work. The club work seems to be moving on very nicely. The dry weather has 1 prevented many of the girls from putting out plants as soon as ihey would ; like, but several ambitious girls have ! j i _ e ^ tli/! j carneu u<u rtis ui ?aici vuc u im j plants and put their plants out in 1 spite of ;he dry weather. On last Thursday the agent met the the Jalapa club of bright enthusiastic girls at the hospitable home of Dr. J Wm. Folk and held the first canning i ; demonstration. The girls became acquainted with the necessary utensils for canning?doi.\g some prac ica! work in sealing cans. From the splen! did gardens of the Jalapa folks \vc | gathered English peas and strawber| ries enough ifor several cans. The Jalapa club seems very muen interested in their work. This club as a whole 1 has done more real work than an} club in the oountv. This success is . due in a large part to the hearty co operation of parents and friends. W( appreciate this and hope to have more such cooperation in the near future with other clubs. During this week the agnet hopes ; to visit he clubs at Silverstreet, Chappells, St. Luke and Hunter-DeYvralt. The members of the St. Luke clut I have sent the following invitations j to the members of the boys corn club: J We '.omato girls invite you? With our hearts and hands we write you I uome ana spena an evening wim us full of frolic, feast and fun. Just "to make the best things better' Is the purpose of this letter? j You will all be better corn-men wher You have our bidding done, The girls hope to meet all the cornmej at ihe home of Rev. and Mrs. B, W.
