It will take but few more edi torials such as appeared as a lead er in last Monday's issue of the News and Courier to solidify those who supported Governor Blease in the last primary; there are many who are not altogether pleased with the record the gov, ernor is making, they are consid-. ably disappointed, but, they will not stand for this ever-constant abuse of that official, and, if it is kept up by the two leading dail ies in the State, Blease will be re-elected as sure as the r.ime comes. The Times did not sup port Blease, nor did it give sup port to Featherstone, the former has never been the choice of its editor, he has never voted for him in.a primary, and the latter, he could not, and would not support because of a lack of confidence in his political faith. Featherstone began his career as a Prohibi tiinist, then veered around to wards Local Option, went back to prohibition when he thought the Prohibitionists had the poli tics of the State cinched. He worked the churches for his po litical aggrandisement, set him self up as the defender of a relig ious and a moral principle, was the exponent of those things which went to build up morality: to carry out this grand idea he enlisted the good women and the preachers in his cause, but, when he woke up the morning after the first primary, and found that the Local Optionists were in the ma jority, a change came over the1 spirit of his dreams, and he tried todroptheprohibitionissue. Like the News and Courier ot the olden day, when ii its correspon dence with one Woodruff it said "damn principle it's money weV want." Featherstone didn't say, it, but his future conduct said it for him, "damn prohibition it is the office I want." Then and there The Times editor lost faith in the man, and could not cast a vote for him, nor will he ever cast a vote for political hyprocrisy if he, knows it. . If ever the Prohibitionists ex pect to elect a governor, the next primary is about as good a chance' as they will ever have, but they must put one in the fiald who is1 really a true blue prohibitionist. not merely a seeker for an official job. We do not believe prohibi tion can win in this State at all, matters not who is put forward on that iss~e, but the Prohibs sl'ould not iet themselves be scar ed out of the running by such clap tr'ap as we see in some of the newspapers;sif they are sincere] in their professions we do not see V how they can keep out of the next ] primary with an avowed issue, and a candidate. The last pri- 3 mary showed clearly that probi-U bition was not the sentiment of < the majority, but this should not i deter the sincere Prohibitionists from carrying on their warfare. -for the principle they advocate; unless they are not in reality so1 much after prohibition as they1 are for the fieshpots of political I office, they cannot avoid hoisting< their white banner again, regard-f1 less of the advice of the News ] and Courier, and the other news papers whicL are assuming to 1 scare the prohibition crowd away from the political trough. Should 1 there be a prohibition candidate in the second race in the next primary with Blease. according to the News and Courier, Blease will surely be in the second race,! then we shall expect to see thel spectacle of newspapers like The I State and the News and Courier advocating the election of the Prohibitionist in their editorial 1 columns, and, their advertising 1 columns filled with liquor adver-i tisements. Inconsistency is not I an unusual attitude for either of these newspapers to be guilty of. The Times, while it did not - support Blease, has endeavored i to be absolutely fair to him, and j to his administration; it has not ,c and does not, hesitate to express its disapproval of what it thinks is wrong in his acts, neither does it withhold from him credit when it thinks he is right. The News i~ and Courier, however, has dem- 1 onstrated its dislike for the gov-~ ernor when it permitted its pre ', judice to demand, from its ac-k- E nowledged faithful reporter, his I resignation from the governor's staff, and The State's prejudice i so well krnown that it is useless~ to direct attention to it. Many be- t lieve The State's conduct had t much to do with the election- of c Blease, but unless it changes its 1 attitude, and becomes at least a fair, every utterance it may mnake c in the effort to defeat Blease will have a tendency to help him. The L News and Courier's editor receiv-I r ed his newspaper training in the office of the Columbia State. and t no doubt absorbed consider-able r of its hatred for the present gov ernor. Se1nator Tiila s reply t ongressinan Aikcn is a clasi .nd should be preserved fo uttre generations. In a speed n Spartanburg soie time ag( sovernor lease said that v '7nited Statl--s Se.nator told hin ongressan Johnson and mu orE ;euse than all of the other mie! >ers of the House delegatior )ut together- This put gingen nto Congressman Aiken, wh las been flattering himself witi )eing possessed of a m-onopo]N )f the grrav matter. and he se1 tbout to discover which of thi senators it was who is guilty oJ his heresy an(d had the temerit. o give to another what he imag ned belonged only to hin.

Senator Smitl ;avs he remembers having . onveisation with the governoi n which he spoke in compli nentarv terms of Congressmar ohnson, but he could not recal he exact language used. It does not strike us that Con ressman Aiken, by his attempt ng to chase down a casual remari nade, which does not affect any >ody seriously, is verifying th< he opinion expressed about th( nental capacity of, at least on( >f our Congressman. It is no1 nfrequent that it is remarket ,r. So and So has more sens( ;han any man in the county. W( 1ave heard the expression tha1 enator Tillman has more sens an any other man inthe State his remark was merely intend d to emphasize the regard th >erson had, and not intended ii ts literal sense, but suppos enator Smith's opinion is tha1 ongressman Johnson has mor4 sense than the rest of the Souti Irolina members, it was ai >pinion he had a right to, and i: >ressed, no doubt he could find t strong following with thE ;ae opinion, we are satistiec te could, if it is learned that th( ther members are as "thin kined" as Mr. Aiken appears o be. WAS BLEASE IMPOLITE? The Belton Times has giver he opponents of Governor 0014 .. Blease an opportunity to man ifacture a great big mountain oui >f a little mole hill, which the' ;'eem delighted to take advantagE >f; had the governor not dignifi Id the story with a denial, therE .vould not have been any affiday ts or certificates to contradic1 iim but, he did notice it, and hi >layed right square into thE ands of those who are work ng night and day to bring abou 1s downfall, they brought on ;ituaton which raises a questior f veracity in which a woman b~ nvolved,-a situation which nust be embarassing to any man. We do not believe Cole L. 1ease is capable of consciously eing discourteous to a woman, his belief is based upon a long tcquaintance; for him to be dis :ourteous to anybody, white o: >lack, is so foreign to our know edge of his nature, and his char tteistics, that notwithstanding he aflidavits or certificates sub nitted~ by the Belton Times cdi or, we must believe there isa nisunderstanding. Blease has his faults, we do not gree with some of his nolicies, ior do we endorse a gooui many~ >f his utterances, but when 1 omes to a question of politeness e have never seen, or have we ~ver heard until now, that he was t any time impolite in his con act with persons. Frequently rave we heard men remark about ts likable manners: we have eard men whom we knew to bc >olitical adversaries speak of dim thus, "Cole Blease's long uit is his cleverness and affabil ty, you cannot help but like the ellow,although you mayntot have onfidence in his opponent." We regard this Belton incident xceedingly unfortunate, had the -overnor displayed a proper wi s .out te would not have given any rody a chance to have questionedl i word, especially when 01 here a lady might become in -led. He should have disclaim-~ d any intention of discourtesy, nd let it gone at that. We do not believe that a No ary Public cant be forced to at est papers, or take the atlidavit f one who desires to be sworn, t the saute time when he does ifix htis name to an affidavit it oes not signify that he ap roves of the text of the instru ent, and in thte matter of the rec oval of the notaries by the overnor on account of the Bel n incident we thtink the gover. or acted as silly as did Wyatt ~iken in his letters tn Senators LYNCHING NOT SNGTIONAi. When th lynchirig spirit takes hold of a frienzed mob, it iakes no difference where it is, ih the South or West or North. In Pennsylvania last Satui-day night a. mob took a negro from a hospital and burned him to a crisp because he shot and killed a special policeman. One thous and people gathered at the hos pital and demanded the negro, when they were refused, they smashed their way into the build ing, carried him out on a cot adin i the presence of this vast crowd, many of them being women, set fire to him and piled rails on top of him to add more fuel so that no part of him would remain. No such atrocity could happen in this State. Negroes have been lynched but it has not been done in such a savage manner, nor have the women ever become mixed up in such a fiendish demonstration. This horrible affairoccured with in thirty miles from where the declaration of the-American inde pendence was signed, and in a town of ten thousand population. Not a policeman showed up dIur ing the march of the mob to the scene of the burning- How can the North American and the i other Pennsylvania newspapers ever again have the face to re buke a lynching that should happen to take place in the South, and it too, not for the killing of a policeman, but for the crime which is worse than death to the victim. THEY ARE AFTER HIM. It begins to have the appear ance that the department of Sagricultnre at Washington under the administration of Secretary Wilson is to have a scandal. The present secretary has built up a great machine for the develop ment of the agricultural inter ests of the whole country. and especially has the South bee1L benefitted by his grand work, but there has come a change in the control of the lower house of congress, and there is to be a desperate political c o n t e s t throughout the nation next year, as a consequence every thing is being investigated, and every body connected with the present administration is being touched I up to furnish material for the manufacture of campaign thun der. Of all the departments in the government considered be ing conducted upon non partisan lines, it is the agricultural branch, and the head of that department is esteemed in the South even more than the Pres ident. Secretary Wilson is an old man and has served in the cabinet longer than any other man, it would be a pity indeed did he now at this stage of his career be forced to .resign be cause of, possibly some mistake, orsome wrong committed by an underling which he entrusted. Secretary Wilson we believe to be an honest man, and regardless of the inquiries being made by a committee of politIcians who are seeking partisan advantage, we hope that he will come out with flying colors. NO SCANDAL HERE. ILaurens is to have a glass fac tory but we do not think its stockholders can be accused of being in collusion with the offi cers of the State who are con nected with the dispensary in the six wet counties. It wip. be remembered that Columbia had~ a glass factory which did a tremendous business~- with the State dispensary, and with the county dispensaries, but when the winding- up commission made an investigation it found these Columbia gentlemen had been robbing the State in a similar way to that resorted to by the liquor houses of the West and North. True, the Columbia State was very indignant when it became public that the Colum bia glass works was so accusea. and it hastened to give to those connected with it a certificate of character, it said they were men of such high integrity that none will dare assail them "ex cept in a covert and cowardly manner," nevertheless, a commis sion having the powers of a court did assail them and boldly charged them with a conspiracy to rob and cheat the State of South Carolina. The Laurens enterprise will not be subjected to a similar oportunity for graft and therefore no scandal will be expected to ooze from it. TURN IT OVER TO THE STATE. The legislature of Georgia has refused to appropriate money for state fair- purposes on the ground that it would be unconstitutional. When a similar measure was pending in the last general as senbly in this state there were sonic members who took the un popular view that the legislature was misappropriating the peo ple's tax money if it gave it to' the state fair, as that association was solely a private corporation, the appropriation however was allowed by the conference com mittee, which was sustained by a very narrow margain, but when it1 reached the governor he vetoed it, and then camne a ho, sl. There is too great a tendency to appropri ate money for these semi-public institutionls but when it is done it is in violation of the fundamental law. We regard our state fair as ~ an important feature and we be lieve the state ought to give it encouragemlent, but the only way this can be done is by those own ing the fair grounds to cede theC proerty to the state and let it THEY WANT #LUt. LAWS iFORCEu. Mayor Gibbes of Columbia is having a time -now with the preachers of that city, because he will not go to extremes in the entorcement of the Sunday laws. The Mayor does not think it wrong to permit the sale of cigars and soda water on Sun days, and he thinks that if he is required to enforce the Sunday ordinance as written; without the exercise of judgment then the lid would have to be put down hard and fast upon the running of street cars, the sell ing of newspapers, restaurants would have to be closed, hotels would not be permitted to re ceive guests on that day, auto mobile riding would have to be stopped, livery stables would not be permitted to hire out horses, and many other things which custom- has sanctioned, and if prohibited, would work great inconveniences upon a large portion of that city's peo pie, especially, those who labor until a late hour on Saturday nights. As soon as this con troversy began we became in terested to know whether or not the preachers of Columbia would be able to force Mayor Gibbes to shut the lid down to suit their wishes. FOOLISH The dismissal of the notaries who took the affidavits in the measly Belton matter was, to say the least of it, very petty on the part of the governor and not calculated to. strengthen him even against the onslaught of his enemies. We believe there are those who would go to any length to destroy the governor's influence with the people, at the same time this does not justify him in giving way to temper to do little things such as dismiss ing a notary public because his name appears as the attesting officer to a document which re flects upon the governor himself. Those whom the gods would des troy they first make mad, and in our opinion the Belton scheme belongs to be classed in this cat egory. A man who is qualified to be governor should be able to governor himself first under any provocation. William J. Bryan-continues to talk, and the more he talks, the more he talks to injure the cause of the democracy. The Georgia legislature did not get to a vote on the Tippens Bill which was to drive out the sale of near-beer, and the dispensers of this beverage will have anoth er year at least to quench the thirst of the Jaw-Jawgians. An heiress of Newport, eloped with a chauffear and the newspa pers are chock full of the event, the reporters are watching the young couple to spy out .all of their movements as if the fu ture welfare of the country de pended upon whether or not the couple's next move will be to wards the divorce courts In Arkansas- they resort to taking prisoners out of the jail and give them a beating when they are arrested for "bootleg aing" with the warning if they do not discontinue their "boot legging" they will be killed. These regulators need a little regulation, and made to learn that the law guarantees persons charged with crime the right of trial by jury, but then. Arkansas sent Jeff ries Davis to the United States senate, and their uncivil ized conduct should not be sur prising. Admiral Togo's visit to the United States and the receptions being given to the little Jap may be the fore runner of a war be tween the two nations as was the ase when the Spanish war ship paid a visit to New York harbor just before the outbreak of the Spanish American war. Togo is i"great sea fighter, but should Eobson's ideas come true, he may yet have an opportunity of tes t ing his skill with the sea dogs of the United States. There is no telling what willibreak out along the Pacific coast about the time the Panama exposition opens up or the reception of the people of the world, not excepting the yel lows of the far East. The Democratic South is at this time applauding the work f the Democratic congress, the way they are shaving down the ariff is meeting with general ipproval until the cotton sched hle was struck, and then with >ne accord the cry goes up 'Watchman spare that cotton," 3ut the "intrals out'n" iron. wool. steel, glass and those ther things but do not touch otton. If there is any thing in she claims of the commercial ournals the reducing the tariff n cotton will be followed by a eduction of the price, and if ;his comes true we can see some f our red-hot Democrats going mong their constituents telling hem how it happened, and cussin' the damn Yankees" for >ringing such a condition.

Ho never leaves things half done, but does everything to a finish. - The exceptional young man is the one who studies his employer's busi ness, who reads its literature, who is on the watch for every improvement b which others in the same line have 3 adopted and which his employer has d not, who is always improving himself during his spare time for larger things.

But then also wakens- the countless army of hunchbacks, lean and gray mosquitoes, piping blithely for blood. So summer reigns. Then suddenly h one day at the end of August, after the sj sun has sunk behind the barren crags n through a balmy warmth of evening, S one may wake up to find everything transfigured and the, first snow of an other season already falling. Found Out His Man. A southerner who was visiting St. Louis wandered Into the dining room of the hotel and, seeing a negro servant who bad all the importance of an army officer standing near the door, asked him who the "head nigger" was around there. The negro stretched himself to his full height and pompously replied that "there ain't no niggers in St. a Louis, sab. We Is all gem-men of col- o or." "Well," said the southerner, drawing n a $100 bill from his pocket and finger- a Ing It, "1 expect to be at this hotel for some time and want to make sure that I will be taken care of." d "Oh, sah," said the negro, whose eyes h were popping from his head, "did you t< want to know who the head 'nigger tl waiter' is?
