The reports from over ti -State in- the primary held f< Attorney General indicate th morning that J. Fraser Lyon h, been defeated 'by Thomas I Peebles by a safe majority. TI vote was light throughout tI State, very little interest w< taken by the people, and in .o opinion, the responsibility f< this lethargy can be placed the door of. tpe State Executi' Committee; the action of th body in arbitrarily postponir the second primary without ti least authority in the law or ru es of the Democratic party w< resented, many regarding the a tion of the committee a trick 1 save the present attorney gene a from defeat. Attorney Gene al yon was the victim of circu[ stances, we do not regard his d, ft a repudiation, for it is coi cededthat he made a faithful o flcer, his defeat however is iarg ly due to the blundering of h friends in an effort to thwart ti will of the masses. RAS A LUCID MOMENT. The Lancaster News which published in Judge Jones' hon tow, and which was a strop supporter- of the Judge-moi enthusiastic in its support tha -discreet has at last seen how fi tle it is to continue the stria and it comes out with the follov ing bit of.advice: "The fight over the nomin tion of the governorship now bi ing numoered among the thing of the past, let us all try to fo: give and forget the hard thine spoken during the exciting timE preceeding the election. We ai all citizens of the same stal whose feelings and aspiratiot should be for the upbuilding < our county and state.

We think it should be high crime for men to organu themselves into societies for tb purpose of holding up their en ployers, punishable with sever penalties. We are not oppose to labor being organized for 11 protection, but there is a grei difference between protectic from abuses, and taking advan age of conditions to extort froi those who invest their mone and-give employment. In mar cases these strikes are the resu of idle brains, men who will n< work themselves, and who lis by keeping up a spirit of die Gontent in the minds of thos who do work.

Charleston is going to have fair that is a fair, and we wi venture to say it will be the bi; gest exhibition that has ev< been held in the State since tI exposition. The promoters< the scheme have interested t] .government and it will have ft the sight seers the great batt ships of the United States nay; which alone is worth travelir hundreds of miles to see, not ol ly this there will be a great mil tary demonstration and mar> other things to attract and ei tertain. The gentlemen in charge< this mammoth exhibition are n< stinting themselves with mone but they are going to bave ever; thing that money can secure make Charleston's fair the grea est ever. Read the advertis ment in another column, ai make up your mind to be of ti geat throng that will visit Cha leston during the gala occasion. i * This is no mere frolic to gratify 1 a passing whim, but it is gotten up to invite the people of the 1 r. entire State to go to Charleston . and to get into touch with the progress which has started there, & to show to the people of the State . the business advantages the city has to offer and to induce our people to do their trading at home where the facilities are as great as any part of the Union. While m a k i n g this demonstration o it takes along some pleas ure with business and will afford o delightful entertainment for all ts. of the visitors. The railroads re are co operating with the com mittees in charge of the fair and h will put on cheap rates and the boarding houses and hotels are, also alive to the great event and. e will give reduce rates. Let everybody go to the fair, take it from us that it will be worth the trip. what is more, we te believe the schools should ar )r range to take the children to S Charleston, to see Uncle Sam's IS great floating forts which are t9 1- protect this country from inva- 1 te sion by foreign foes, it will be te an education in itself. 1r NOTHING DOING. t Those who are in charge of the re Progressive partyof the Stage are It urging the county newspapers , to send them their "mailing list" t and in return they promise to 1. furnish -political news' as it ,s occurs."The Manning Times can 1 3. get all of the "political news" it o desires without lending any aid r. to the Bull-Mooses at a time r. when the country at large is in 2. need of a strong pull and a pull - all together of the Democracy 2 We have no idea that the Pro f. gressives will amount to a hill of e- beans in this State this year, nor is will it ever amount to much until te it gets the endorsement of a dif ferent class of men than it has now. To put a new party upon a firm foundation in this State there must be men at the found is ing known,and in whose sincere- 1 te ty the masses have confidence, g unless this confidence is secured -e the death of the new party so far ,n as this State is concerned, is at 1- its "borning." :e The: Manning Times declines 7- to lend its aid or comfort to the S new party by sending its mailing 1 t- list, nor will it do any advertis 3 ing for ,it unless assured in ad- a S vance of its pay the same as it would charge to any other adver tiser. We have not the time nor s the inclination to run aft e r I e strange gods, the Democratic C ' party is good enough for us, but t Is should we ever feel justified in >f quitting it, the Republican party 1- with all of its horrible past will e5 be preferable to a party which ~ n has no other basis for its founda- ~ g tion than tbe spleen of Theodore ~ e Roosevelt. t- There is need for a second ~ is white party in this State we be 2, lieve, but it must be, to be re 1- spected, a party made of a pat riots who are seeking the welfare ~ of the commonwealth rather than the political fieshpots. A second ( t party made up of substantial ~ d white men, having a. purpose to ~ reform the government upon Sprogressive lines may be planted ' and in the course of time bear ~fruit, but a party made up of po litical -adventurers whose only ~purpose is to get close to the Smoney bags of the "big leaders" I cannot do much towards mislead- ~ in g this people. ROOSEVEL.T SHOT. 'An attempt was made to assas- f e inate Ex-President Theodorei e Roosevelt last Monday at Mil Swanikee, Wisconsin, just as he r n left his hotel for the auditorium e a where he was scheduled to deliv- d n er an address. The shot was s Lt fired by a crazy man who gave ] g his name as John Schrank of New s a York. olonel Roosevelt was e struck in the breast, and nor e doubt would have been killed - had not the force ot the bullet i e been weakened by a manuscript 5 d he had in his pocket. The would- r Sbe assassmn was immediately cap- i .t tured by one of the Colonel's i n secretaries. and turned over to p t the police. The crowd as soon a Sas it learned of what had hap- ~ y pened wanted to lynch the assail- p Y ant but Col Roosevelt interceded 2 it for "the poor creature" a n d il >t thereby saved him from t h e e .wrath of the crowd. Colonel a s Roosevelt went on to the audi e torium, made his speech with tl y the bullet in his body and then )went to the hospital where he r 0 was examined and pronounced a Snot dangerously hurt. 1- When he was first shot he told t - the crowd that he was not hit, s5 and no doubt this had some effect; e e to keep down violence being 0 y done, when he told the crowd he ~ it was unhurt it is evident that he, did not know that he was hit, s but on the way to the hall, one : of the party in the automobile'I a called his attention to a hole in 11 his overcoat, the Colonel ran his;1 h and in his coat and discoveredi sr that he was bleeding but insist t le ed on going to the hall, and saidE a when the doctors wanted him to 1 ie ibe quiet and not attempt to make y the speech, "I will deliver this le speech or die, one or the other." aC -There is absolutely no political r significance in the attempt upon Sthe life of Colonel Roosevelt, it! i- is altogether the work of a dis yordered mind, the man was crazy 2. clear from the letters found in! e hiis pocket, and from his excla- i yf miation when he fired the shot. >t He exclaimed, "any man looking, for a third term ought to be shot." t ~The attempt upon the life of othis distinguished citizen is a ,t- .sh o ck to the entire civilized e world, those who are not in ac-p id cord - with the views and the le methods of the Ex-President are r as sincerely grieved as are his a varmest admirers. All rejoice hat his wound is not serious, end that the attempt to take his ife was providentially prevented. VOTE AGAINST BONDS. Our readers will recall that we )pposed the "Asylum Bond Is ;ue," and among the reasons riven was that we regard the cheme entirely unnecessary. 'here is no demand for the brnd ssue except from an element hat is seeking an opportunity to et a grasp upon some of the nost valuable property in the ity of 'Columbia, we regard the gitation rather in the light of a and grabbing scheme. and if the >eople vote in favor of the bond ssue mark our prediction the present magmficient asylum >roperty in the city will soon be .n the hands of the land compan .es for speculation. When the matter was first nooted it was a common report n the city of Columbia that a iumber of men had formed to ret their hooks into this property tnd so certain were they that bey had things fixed, they mployed surveyors to lay out treets and cut the property up nto lots, but something happen d and their plans were frustrat d. Now we would be the last to ,tand in the way of progress, ,nd especially a progress which would inure to the benefit of the infortunates under the State's are, but we have been unable o see this project as some who avor it appear to do. They tell is unless the people give their anction to the bond issue, the State levy will have to be in :reased 2J mil's, but in our opin on this is a bugaboo to scare >eople into voting for the cheme. There will be no in ,rease in the tax levy for the text two years at least, and hould the general assembly at empt to raise the levy Governor 3lease will exercise his preroga ave and his veto will be sustain !d, or at least the advocates of he bond issue cannot secure nough votes to pass it over the reto. When the subject was up for liscussion in the Senate we took he position then that the advo ates of the bond issue failed to how a necessity for this addi ional burden upon the already ax burdened people of the State. .nd we intimated then that there vere individuals greatly inter sted in having the asylum prop rty sold in order that they may >rofit thereby; 'we realize the ongested condition in the insti ution, but this is being retieved >y building on the property re ently purchased, and by a grad Tai process as the State becomes ble tbe crowded negro inmates an be removed from their pres nt quarters can be fitted up com ortably for whites without much xpense. When there was an effort made o force the retirement of Dr. J. V. Babcock a few years ago up >n a report of a committee there ay around the lobbies of the state house men who had itch ng palms just waiting for the ommittee's report to be fav >rably acted upon, but they were .isappointed with the b u 11 Log tenacity of financiers they ept on urging until they got the egislature to submit the ques ion of the bond issue to the peo le under the threat that if they t not issue~ the bonds the tax levy nil be raised. Senator W. J. Tohnson of Fairfield, a man who s successful in business, and a I o s e student of the State's inances has published a letter n Monday's News and Courier hich we think the people should ead and ponder well before they asI a vote which consents to bur ening themselves with a bond is pe amounting to $1,000.000. ere is what Senator Johnson ays: To the Editor of the News and Cour ier: There will be an important amead ient to the Constitution subtlitted to be qualified electors for ratification at be approaching election on November ,and as it vitally concerns every tax ayer in the State, the matter should be roperly understood, and as the columns f the press are the only medium brough which the attention of the ublic can be invited. I will thank you 2 give space In your columns for a rief review of the proposition. The amendment provides for a bond sue of one million dollars, running for 0 years at four per cent interest. Tbe 2terest alone on the issue during the 0 years would aggregate $800,000, and rith tbe principle would make a grand stal of 81,800,000. The only question arising concerning be issue of the boncas is whether there ;any real necessity. to further increase be indebtedness of the State, that al eady' amounts to about $7,000,000 with n annual interest of $280,000. It is claimed by those favorable to be proposition that it is necessary to uild a white Asylum in the Sand Hills 2 addition to the one now in course of reetion there for tbe negroes and move th white and colored from their pres ot location. A fter a careful survey of the situation re utterly fail to see the wisdom of uch a course. The Asylum matter was ally investigated by 'the Legislative ommittee and the sane and proper so ation of the matter was incorporated the minority report of the committee, rhich was to build a se-parate Asylum i the Sand Hills for the colored pa ents only, and to rotain the two pres n commodious buildings together with he 372 acres of land in the city of Co jmbia for the whites. This can be done itout any bond issue and the results rould be far better than attempt to put new building at a cost of one million ollars for the wnites and have to bor ow it, while the buildings and lands has we already have in the city of Co imbia, and woich can be used exclus rely by the whites, cost the taxpayers ir more than two million dollars. If the bond issue carries and the pres ns Asylum is to be sold, we venture he ass'ertion that not more than $500, 00 could~ be realized from such sale, as be buildines that have cost the State illions of dollars and well adopted for heir present use would be worthless >r any other purpose, and would nat rally have to be thrown in as that uch junk in a sale of the same. Then loss of one and a half millions to the eople of South Carolina would be the 2evitable result from the sale of the remiums Another remarkable proposition here ls reains nsolved and naernlained. How can we erect a better Asylum in the sand hills than the one we have, for: one million dolldrs, when the one we al ready have cost over two millions? We are also appropriating annually $30,000 or $35,000 to improve and mod ernize these buildings for the comfort and convenience of the unfortunate pa tients. Is all of this to be thrown into the junk pile, too? The negro Asylum now under con struction in the Sand Hills and for which the legislature has already ap oropriated about $250,000 should be am ple for its completion and when com pleted should relieve all congestion of patiets for the next 50 years to come. But aside from the loss of all these millions that would result should the change be made, why should we remove these unfortunate pegple from city com forts aid conveniences and a highly im proied vegetable form to the Sand Hills and isolation that could never be much imtroved if at all? It. was said to be an exercise of wisdom and forethought when the plan was ut vised to move the negroes to the Sand Hills and keep the two buildings in Co lumbia for the whites and thus the two institutions kept entirely separate and apart from each other, and all without any bond issue or additional taxation. It would appear from such facts and fitures as are obtainable that we are far tetter off without the bond issue than we could possibly expect to be with it, to say nothing of the burden it would necessarily impose. because we already have a two million dollar plant right in the heart of- the city of Columbia to start with, and it would require com paratively little to modernize and im prove it sufficiently for the accommoda tion of all the white insane for the next 50 years to come. Then why should we sacrifice that valuable property in the city of Colum bia to start with, and it would require comparatively little to modernize and improve it sufficiently for the accommo dation of all the white insane for the next 50 years to come. Then why should we sacrifice that valuable property in the city of Colum bia that we have already paid for, im pose a bonded debt of $1,800,000 upon the State add get less than we already have? If the scheme is carried out some of the land companies will read a rich har vest. It is to be hoped, however, that the proposition will be defeated by the popular vote In the general election, and both an unnecessary burden and loss to the State averted. W. J. JOHNSON. Riegeway, S. C., October 12, 1912. The speeches that are being made by Hon. John L. McLaurin in a number of places in the State in the interest of marketing and storing cotton, is attracting a great deal of attention. He is having his spare time taken up to accept the invitations that he receives, and we hope those who are at the bead of the Farmers Union will endeavor to get him to speak in this county. We be lieve he will come here if invited as he has many strong friends here. If the threatened war between Turkey, and Greece and the allied Balkan States does break gut to the extent that other powers intervene, there is a strong probability of the war being general throughout Europe [n our opinion this would mean a great disaster to the United| States, it would mean the forc ing down of the price of cotton the soaring upwards of the price af provisions. The mills in Europe would not want to handleI pur I cotton with a war cloud overing over them, and the de maid for food would be so great bhat Europe would be forced to send far and wide and pay any price to get it. There was a couple in Colum bia arrested Monday charged with trafficking in white slaves,. Iheir names are Melt and Mrs. Lillis Kneece, and their home is at Leesville, S. C. They are _ ~harged with enticing a girl un er 18 years of age from her home n Augusta and selling her to a bouse of shame in Columbia, the girl escaped from the house and returned to her Augusta home. rhe penalty for this erime is a Ene of $,000 or imprisonment of Sve years or both in the court's liscretion. A lawyer at Lees ville says there is nothing in he charge, that the Kneeces are good people and prominently :onnected, but the information tpon which the officers acted :ame from the girl who it is al eged was wronged. The appeal for aid to the Dem cratic cause is brmnging many ollars into the party's treasury,I and it is alright, but when the - 3ewspapers representing the Democratic party- condemn the ther parties for collecting money to further their interests hey are inconsistent- One party Las as much right to call upon its followers as another. It costs money to run a political cam paign; in fact, it costs money to run any kind of a campaign, whether it be political or relig toas. and the money must come !re~n those who are in sympathy. Democrats must contribute to elp Wilson to be elected, Re pulicans must cough up to help 'aft, and the Progressives or Bull Moosers have got to reach own into their jeans and spill put their coin if they hope to ive Teddy a look-in. It is j money, money, money, to run averything. Why, in this mer enary age there is no more such i thing as a religion without money and without price; it .0sts money to procure aid for alvation, therefore, when a political party undertakes to lect its representatives without noney it must fail, just as a relig on must fail of results if money s not supplied to further the ~ause. leware of Ointments for Catarrh that Contan Mercury s mercury will surely destroy the sense ot smell Lud completely derange the whole system when atering it through the mucous surfaces. such rticles should never be used except on prescrip ions from reputable physicians, as the damage hey will do is ten fold to the good you can pos ibly derive from them.
