Georgetown, June -2.?Quietude | gSxRnarked tne first week of the camBpaign for State offices which ended g^y .'iere Saturday. The candidates are showing a laudable disposition to disV cuss issues and not personalities. There are no grounds for comparison between this calm campaign and the ? 'hectic one of 1912. Naturally the interest of the peoI -pie addressed by the candidates seems L to centre in the race :'or governor, in which 11 candidates have entered, f One of them, J. B A. Mullally, has f not joined the party yet. \ The unanimity with which the friends of the governor who are in the present race tor cmei e.\ecun?c deny that they are parasites cn his person or platform is at once amus. ing and pathetic. The humorousness o: their unanimous denial is that they should take the trouble and breath to make it if it is really so. The sadness of their "I'm not a coat-tr.il swinger" exclamations lies in the fact that they have seen it necessary to assert their independence on every -* -? * Slump su iar. John G. Richards, Jr., has said that if he is a "coat-tail swinger" because he is going to vote against E. D. v Smith for the United States senate, then the other candidates are in a like igno>ble position because they are going to vote for Smith. Mr. Richards ^ is fighting compulsory education in any form and denounces the rules made by the last State Democratic npimarv aIpp COnveilLIUU IU iaicguaiu ^1'"?.,. ? tion from fraud, all of which is in keeping with the administration's attitude. Mr. Richards still has the office of railroad commissioner. He is swinging on to the office, whether he : / has a death grip on anybody's coattail or not. None of the candidates 'UIvn-. V,or. t ch orl On this opposing 112111 lias fact yet in their speeches. The question of compulsory school attendance for the children of the State is taking prominence among the issues of the campaign for governor. John G. Clinckscales of Spartanburg is making an out and out fight for compulsory education without any * strings tied to it. Richard I. Manning of Sumter and Mendal L. Smith . of Camden are advocating a law to allow each school district tne right to vote on the question of compulsory education.

The ? alignment of the candidates and their \\ . attitudes on the issues were fairly well outlined bef re the races begun.

To All Officers and Employes of Southern Railway Company: A railroad is first of all a publicj , N servant. It follows that the success of! a railroad as a business enterprise depends, in very large measure, not only upon the efficiency of the transporta- j tion it afforfls, but upon the personal i treatment which those doing business! with the railroad receive at the hands j norr. on/1 omnlm'PS Tbprp- : 4 l/i US uuivvi o lAi-vi fore, in addition to doing everything j in his power to promote the physical! efficiency of our service, each officer J and employe, whatever may be his j rank or duty, must at all times consid- ! er the moral efficiency, and this means i first of all that he should j treat all patrons of the com- i pany and others with whom lie may come into contact with polite-! ness and courtesy. This is a primary j rule of management of Southern Railway company, but it is 110 more than pects of every one from whom he, each officer or employe himself exbuys. This rule should be observed regardless of the amount of business j that the individual may give to the j company, not only because that is the j part of a gentleman, but from self j r * interest for the occosiona! traveler or the small shipper of today may 1 be the constant traveler or the large shipper of tomorrow. A nursed j grudge growing out of a surly answer ! has been responsible for many of the trouble. of the rv/roa<?s. Let 113 then all try to p*ease the public. The station agent should remem-; bcr that at his station he is the South ?? ern railway company and th'ii public opinion regarding the company in his community is very largely ..is responsih.iiy. in addition to mamrauiing the highest oilicier.cy at his station, he should s<<* 10 it that he and his subordinates maintain pbasant and agreeable manners in meeting the public and that all questions, even unreasonable questions, are answered with politeness and courtesy. It is equally important that trainmen shall observe the rule of courtesy i ~ l and politeness, giving full, respons'vej i and intelligent information to those passengers wh > solicit it about anything that may happen on the road. -rv.? sM-tAyotirkii /-.f 0 rafrn'wl is inter i 1 lie upci auun v>i- ? | i esting to every intelligent man, and I the more information such a man lias about actual conditions the more-he will understand the difficulties en- j countered in operatfon and so conI tribute tj sound public opinion, i I am proud to believe Oat the genj eral average or' courtesy and polite! ness in the Southern railway organization will compare most favorably with that o:' any railroad in the United i States. Good manners are traditional in the South and our men are South- j ern men. This is attested by many , letters which are received by the man- ; i agement c-mmending individual emi ployes for conspicuous acts of courI tesy and painstaking efforts to serve our patrons. I Occasionally, however, letters are < received complaining of instances of i discourtesy. These may je entirely I eliminated if each officer and em- j i ploye ^'ill adopt as his rule of con-j duct the declaration by the late Pros-! J ident Finley that "He serves the rail-! road best who serves the public best."' i Fairfax Harrison, President. 1 Washington, D. C., June 23. 1914 : NO 31 ORE FUNDS NOR EQUIP3TENTS !
