ESSENTIAL WAR WORK.
?
' If the favorable outloofc in the wa?*
situation causes a slackening of our
efforts here at home in Denair or ice
allied civilian organizations engaged
in furthering the welfare and strength
ening the morale of the American
troops, the boys over yonder will be
the sufferers.
The idea that cessation of hostilities
will relieve the soldiers from lur,
ther duty, and us from further re
sponsibility for their welfare?that
the moment they receive the order to
cease firing all that will be left for
them to do will be to shoulder the kit
bags and hurry to eaten a steamer iur
home?is woefully unjust to our bovs
and discreditable to our good judgment.
Large contingents of ^American
troops will, no doubt, have to remain
in Europe for months to preserve order
and assist in the necessarily com.
plicated and tedious process of restoration
and the reconciliation of the
peoples of the one-time "central powers"
to the new forms of government
that will be set up?in other words,
getting their eyes accustomed to the
light! J . V,
Again, the process of bringing home
and demobilizing our army of more
than 2,000,000 men will be a wearisome
and long-draw one one.
And from the day when hostilities
end until the last American soldier
has set sail from France will constitute
a period for such service as only
the war-work organizations can ren'
der.
Then, the soldier will feel the absence
of a great burden lifted; he will
have a rfatural and easily accounted"?

Proper thought for and attention *o
the soldiers' welfare during this trying
period means-everything to these
boys.
If there, ever was a time when it
was the duty of the civilian population
to contribute freely and generously of
their money tq> any war-work cause
it is nowjn tile hour pf victory and
peace J?Atlant^ Constitution. ^ '*
The- above is so true and so weil
said and so appropriate just as we
"* *- * ??? AomnQ{flrT)
- ? are la-uncmug a war luxtu
that we feel that it is well to pass :t
on fc this connection to the readers
of The HerafftPfchd News. \x
Tie news in$icq.tes that the fighting
is about over, J>ut there will be a
great deal to db before our boys can
come home, and we at home must
carry the burden just now, and we
should do it willingly and well. Because
of the prospect of a cessation of
hostilities should not cause us here
at home to become indifferent to the
duties which lie before us at this time
We are going to be called upon do
evea mure LUO-U WC ua>c wicwiujr
done, and it is just as important a-?
what we did that we should do this
thing tor which we are now called.
No one should get the idea that his
task is finished. In fact it is just beginning.
15 FRANCE LONG AGO.
A newspaper, a "Reform" newspaper,
doubtless ignorant that matter
pearing in magazines is usually written
weeks' or months before its pub
Hcation, com^nts in its issue of October
18, thus upon an article relating
to the six sons of Governor Manning
that appeared last week in a deriodical
in Washington:
"Somehow when we read this story
we could not help thinking what a
privilege it was to have "six fine young
sons in the army of their country, and
all of them so near home, and none of
them yet in the firing line and within
the range of the German artillery.
And what a remarkable coincidence
fhaf nr'MloN Gii-mo r?f thorn ho/I Tioon ir?
I AiHC T? UliV ^V*4*V v?i *iUU WW** ***
the service since the troops were sent
to the border two years and more ago,
yet all of them were still in this country,
and that none of them had had
the privilege of going to the front and
across the seas."
Probably every informed newspaper
th South Carolina except The Herald
and 'News of Newberry knows that
five of the six sons of Governor Man
^ . nlng have been in France from two
to three months.
Nor is it quite generous to suggest
that the "boys not in France are not
exposed to danger?the mortality lists
in the American camps in the last 20
days are distressing reading. That
suggestion could not have been intended,
however, it is plain in the par_
-agraph quoted.?The State.
May the Lord "bless the editor of
The State for his sweet disposition
i .Ktf
H
and kindly spirit and fraternal love
which are so -characteristic of the
manner in which he handles any matter
in which he desires to make refi
erence to his friends.
Any fool would have reached the
| same conclusion that The Herald and
News reached from the reading of the
| magazine article, namely that the
| writer knew what he was talking
| about and meant what he said. Of
i course a wise man like the editor or
; The State knew better. The article
l
was published in September. If the
boys had gone over seas "long ago-'
it was misleading to print such information.
j In view of the fact that we had
defended them, against the aspersion?
and criticisms of a candidate during
| the campaign we were disappointed
to see the statement in the magazine
i tv?ot timv worn aii herp in camDS. We
( Wiiai/ VUV.T T? V/ Mix ?? ._
! may not be an "informed" newspaper
but we really thought they were over
| seas long ago until we read the article.
Then there have been so many
crosses of honor to the war governor
I for the great part he had taken and
so much ?aid about his boys being iri
the service it was disappointing to
read that they were not where the
fighting: really is.
i But we are pleased to be "informed"
and to know that some <five of them
are over seas and where there in
fighting.
As to the reference to this newspaper
as a "Reform" paper which I*
meant to be a slur; will let tha*
pass- except to say that-'-the record i
will /bear outt>he statement that The
; Herald and News has never bees a
partisan newspaper and a blind follower,
of any faction eV^n since-*the"
days of Tillman and anti-Tillman or.
which possibly the now editor of The
?tate has some knowledge. On the
other hand The State was founded in
factionalism and has lived up to its
founding.
This was in type several ^issues
back,. but had to give way for other
matter, but we desire to be absolutely
fair and print the information as
to the Mannings.
We saw from a newspaper the other
day where one of them has been in
the front line. We take pleasure, in
mentioning the fact and congratulate
the young man. S
Teddy. Roosevelt has .Shad - all hi?
four sons at thfe front *o^?iin6nths and
one of them has jraid the supreme
sacrifice. ;And 'ahtftSef has been
wounded. They have been where the
fighting was all the time.
Now that the game is about ova:'
there will be lots of 'em whcf will be
anxious to get to "the Irottt and into
the service. It reminds lis of our
two-year old. He stands on a chair
and watches his mother make the
biscuits and when we come in he says,
with much gusto, "'Daddy me and Mae
made the biscuits," with much em
Rhasis on the "me." But we should
all do our part, whatever, that may be
and wherever the service calls v.s.
I? every one went to the front there
would be no guns and no munitions
and no food, and the front could not
be maintained very long without gun?
and * food; so there is .something
every otic, and there is no use 10
make sa.much over any particular
one, foiv^it takes all of them doing
their part to win.
Cooperation has been the slogan
which we' have tried to sound from
the beginning, and with no harsh criicism
of any one who was trying CO
do hi 8 duty, as best he could in whatever
sphere, might be called, as we
all should, and no purpose to judse
the motives of others.
.Many families have sent all the
boys, and in many cases the services
of those who went were greatly
needed at home and there was sacri/
^
lice to give tnem up, dul uuunug was
said about it. Just the other day an
only son was ^called from the home
of a widowed mother and left only
the mother and one daughter, and
the son's help was greatly needed in
that home. There was no blast of
trumpets about this, but there was
i sacrifice. And there are many others
| We should be fair and treat every one
! alike.
^
Mr. James H. Fowles who was ap
| pointed solicitor of the fifth circuit
, by Gov. (Manning upon the death of
' solicitor Cobb was a candidate in
the general election and was defeat |
ed by A. F. Speigner. There was only
a two day campaign and Mr. Fowles
jwas defeated. It seems to be an ill
, omon of some kind to get an appointiment
from the governor. Maybe if
; Mr. Fowles had not been appointed
he could have been elected. All of
the appointees of the governor get
defeated by the people.
Another one of the Schroders went
off Monday. That is three boys for
Mr. and Mrs. Schroder and two of
them in France.
There will be no State fair this year
and it is just as. well that it has
been called off.
We heard of a family in Spartanburg
in which there were seven sons
and all of them are in the service and
in France. That father and mother
should have a cross of honor or a
gold meaai. tfut wnen you sena one
and he is the only one you have done
just as much. You have done all that
you could?your duty. And we suspect
they are all privates. There i=j
no higher rank in the service.
