Unless the unexpected happens in the national House of Representatives? an unhealable breach within the ranks of the majority?before the adjournment of Congress next summer, the Democratic party will enter the presidential campaign of 1912 in less vulnerable condition than it has entered any national campaign since Mr. Cleveland was elected in 1892?provided the party does not make the mistake of nominating a weak candidate for the White House. When the Democratic voters begin their work for the campaign of 1912 they should bear in mind that it is not alone the presidency they should contend for, but that if they nominate a candidate popular throughout the United States they will be able to control both branches of Congress and many of the States through the strength of their presidential candidate. Outside the South Democratic candidates in townships, cities, counties, congressional districts, and States, will, one and all, be injured if the Democratic national convention should nominate a candidate for president who has not the complete confidence of the country. There are a number of party leaders with excellent records of steadfast devotion to the interests of the people, and this paper believes that any one of three men it is about to name can be elected to the presidency?Speaker Champ Clark, of Missouri; Governor Harmon, of Ohio, or Governor Marshall, of Indiana. Governor Wilson, of New Jersey, might make a strong candidate, but if he is nominated we shall be agreeably surprised if he is not beaten. The hazard of nominating Governor Wilson is too great to be risked. During the last year or two, we have become accustomed to the plea made by many Southern papers in behalf of the candidacy of Governor Wilson?that he is Southern born. We submit that if the press champions of the New Jersey executive cannot find a better reason for commending him to the people, they would better pass him up. To say that this or that . man would make a strong presidential candidate because he was bom here or there, is to argue one's self incapable of sound reasoning. Governor Wilson has yet to show that he is not a flash ^ is the pan. and tnis is no time for experimenting. ' \ The Teacher's Real Duty. Below is a resolution adopted a few days ago by a county board of education over in Georgia which is worthy of study by every parent who has chil dren in school. This Georgia board thinks that books and not behavior are the things to be taught in the schoolroom and expresses itself in these words: "That the teacher can not take the obligation from the parents of the behavior of the children; that discipline is an incident to teaching, and only necessary for preserving order; that children must be obedient and respectful to their teachers; that children are presumed to be taught behavior at home, and the parents will be held responsible for the conduct of their children at school; that in case of a failure by children to obey their teacher and abide by the rules of the schools, it shall be the duty of the teacher promptly to notify the parents of such children of their misbehavior, and on oontinued failure of such children to abide by the rules of the schools, and be respectful and obey their teachers, such children shall be suspended or expelled from the school of the county, as the exigencies of the case may demand; that children must be made to behave, but that the board does not employ teachers primarily to teach children to behave; that this is a duty of the parents and can not be shifted to the shoulders of the teacher; that it is the desire of the board that ev- i ery child of school age should Be in j 'attendance upon the school, but that it is not fair to the remaining children, nor to the teacher, nor to the aystem of schools, that disobedient and disrespectful children should remain in sehool, hampering the work of the other children and the teachers." With the religious, social and commercial organizations and the press of the State on their trail, it would seem reasonable to predict that the race track gamblers will have a short stay in South Carolina. Already the officers ! of the Columbia Racing association and the agricultural and mechanical society 1 of South Carolina have been cited to appear before State supreme court to , show cause why the races at the State : fair grounds in Columbia should not be I enjoined as a common nuisance or resort for gambling. The order was based on the affidavits of James A. Hoyt, editor of the Columbia Daily Record, and others who are well aware of the manner in which the race track promoters are conducting the affair at fairgrounds. Gambling on racehorses, not unlike gambling in other forms, is contrary to the laws of church and State, and whether the action against such, as instituted by Mr. Hoyt and others who are anxious that the law should not be thus trodden under foot, accomplishes the desired result, other forces are at work and the promoters of this nefarious sport will find it w necessary in the very near future to & hunt other fields to carry on their game rf of filching the public. Register for the town election. It is now onJy a little more than three weeks until the voters of Fort Mill will be called upon to select a mayor and board of aldermen to serve For the years of 1912 and 1913. Up to this time there has been but two nomination made for candidates for the offices and interest in the matter seems to lag. It is to be hoped that if there oe those who care to be honored by election as mayor or aldermen they will at once let the matter be known, that the voters may be able to select from the ranks men who will give the town an hontst and progressive administration. Mr. Farmer, how much cotton do i you intend to put in next year? Do you intend to go on as in the past several years and next fall again receive for your year's work barely enough cash to keep soul and body together? These questions should have serious consideration before you put in your next crop. , "McDow of Yorkville says 'South Carolina, politically, is suffering from rabies.' Sure thing?a sort of delirium tremens era. How long will the pepole of the State stand for it?"?Rock Hill Record. And who is McDow of Yorkville? All Hail, apt. "Jim!" The first copy of The Congressional Directory?the handbook of the American Congress?ever gotten out by a South Carolinian was issued from Uncle Sam's presses in Washington last Monday with the name of Capt. J. B. Bell, of Gaffney, on the title page as editor. Not only is The Directory more attractively gotten up in every respect than any of its predecessors, but Capt. Bell has the distinction of being the first editor of the publication in years who has complied with the law by having copies of it on the desks of the members of the House and Senate the day Congress convened. In urging upon the Joint Committee on Printing the election of Capt. Bell to this important position. Congressman Finley rendered the entire country a distinct service, for the book is, besides being pleasingly bound and faultlessly printed, accurate to a degree nearing perfection. ^ast Wednesday night, in appreciation of the assistance which was rendered him by a number of his friends in making The Directory what it is, Capt. Bell entertained a party at an elegant dinner at the Congressional Library cafe in Washington. Among Capt. Bell's guests were Congressman Finley and W. R. Bradford, of Fort Mill. ' Preparing Holiday Shipments. The Southern Express company has published the following suggestions which if followed will greatly facilitate the prompt handling and delivery of holiday packages sent by express: "Ship your packages early that they may get to their destination and be delivered in ample time for Christmas. Send a postal card notice advising date of shipment. "Use wooden boxes for packing?it may cost a few cents more but the danger of loss and damage is very much reduced. "Write the addivssin full on the box with ink or crayon-tags are frequently torn off and lost. "When packages are sent to a city the street and number should always be given, no matter how prominent or well known the consignee may be. When it is sent to a small town, the county should also be named, so that if there are two towns of the same name in one State no mistake can be made. "Do not mark anything with card marks tacked on-they are easily rubbed off. "Insist upon a recept and see that the amount naid is on the receipt and the value of the package declared. "Write your address in full on the lower left hand corner of the package and enclose a card in the package bearing your address that you may be notified in the event of loss of consignee's address." Gets Verdict for $15,000. One of the largest verdicts given by a York jury in several years was uiai given Thursday in the case of Lida E. Drennan, administratrix, against the Southern Railway company, Carolina division. This was a suit for $25,000 for injuries received by L. B. Drennan, a son of the plaintiff, at a crossing in Rock Hill on July 12, 1910. The case occupied the court for two days and the jury, after being out about one hour, returned a verdict for the plaintiff in the sum of $15,000. This case was the outcome of Mr. Drennan, who was driving a wagon, being run into at a street crossing in Rock Hill and Leing so badly injured that he had no further use of his left arm, and physicians stated he was se badly impaired in his health that he could not withstand an attack of typhoid fever, and died a short time ago. Archie Willis in Trouble. According to late newspaper reports, something of a sensation was sprung in Greenville last week when J. Archie Willis, a stockholder and officer in the Dedmond Remedy company, which was recently commissioned to manufacture and sell a cure for pellagra, was charged with breaching bis trust by not giving a clear account of moneys received as treasurer of the company. It was further alleged that .Willis had denied receiving certain morvpys which the plaintiffs claimed that they believed he had received and with not Q/lminiotorintr tho nf thf? r?nn. cern in the ways agreed upon by {ht stockholders when the company was organized. The matter is now occupying the attention of the court in Greenville. Archie Willis is a member of tht Legislature from Laurtns county. Ht gained some notoriety several months ago by the publication in his news' paper, the Belton Times, of a storj [ charging Governor Blea^e with having j insulted a lady ticket agent at Belton. Willis is well known in Fort Mill, hav ing taught school here a few years ago, | and the outcome of the affair in whicl he is involved will be awaited wit! interest by his acquaintances in this ; community. The school bond issue for $50,000 t< j provide adequate school facilities foi ! Rock Hill was on Monday defeated b} a single vote. There were but 27" votes cast, there being 189 votes 1 agfiinst the measure and 138 for. Tht voters in the mi!' sections were de> cid-idly in favor of the issue, but tht business men of the city were againsl it. At the city hall the majoritj against the issue was 58 votes. At tht other three precincts the majority foi the issue was 52 votes. r Saved His Wife's Life. "My wife would have been in her Save today," writes 0. H. Brown, of uscadine, Ala., "if it had not been ? *or Dr. King's New Discovery. She was down in her bed, not able to get . up without help. She had a severe bron- ' chial trouble and a dreadful cough.
