Some States, judging from the
appropriations made, are more (
careful about the welfare of s
hogs than of children, and some j
people have the same disposition. (
This is because hogs have a j
recognized market value while ,
children have not. Hogs can
always be disposed of at Chicago,
Kansas City and other markets, (
but not children. The merce- j
nary spirit is probably responsi- J t
ble for the opposition to the i
creating of a "Children's Bu- ,
reau" in connection with the j
Federal Department of Commerce
and Labor, although no .
one will confess it. Ostensibly
the opposition generally is based
on constitutional or other political
grounds, but the underlying j
motive with most opponents is y
greed. For the sake of profit (
frnm nhilH Inhnr manufacturers t
and other employers are prepared
to sacrifice the child's physical,
mental and moral welfare. A
child can be discharged if it becomes
ill or otherwise unfit to
work, but a hog?why if a hog
dies it is a direct pecuniary loss to
the owner therefore the best care
possible is bestowed on it. It is
well to look after the hogs, but
one child is worth any number
of them.
Tt will be interesting to note
in coming years the influence of
the Chinese republic upon the
other nations of the Orient. It
is well known that the triumph
of Japan developed a national
consciousness in India which
Great Britain has to reckon with,
and that it did much to Drmg
about the new China which now
seems a reality. Back of all
this, however, is the influence
which the United States and
Great Britain have been exerting
through their diplomatic and
commercial relations, and especially
through the missionary
and educational forces that have
wrought so industriously in
China for very many years. In
this connection it is worth noting
that most of the principal men
at the head of the republican
movement received their education
in colleges in this country or
in Christian institutions in our
own land.
The Times wishes to commend
Mayor McElhaney for his action
a few days ago with regard to
issuing license to a carnival com-,
pany which wished to visit Fort1
Mill. The advance man of the
carnival company assured the,
mayor that no gambling schemes
were run in connection with the
show and a price at which the
show might exhibit here was set
by the mayor. In the contract,
however, it was stipulated that
the mayor himself should be the
judge as to whether gambling
was being carried on and if so
the exhibitions should cease immediately.
The show man refused
the license under those
> - ?J i.'ni J
conditions, ana nine wunucr, iui i
it has since been learned that no i
less than a dozen "skin" games 1
were operated in connection with j
the show a few weeks ago in a
town not many miles from Fort
Mill. J
? r
The multiplicity of conventions t
of all kinds has become well 1
nigh or quite a burden. If the c
r average man were to attend one
half of these gatherings to which <
he is invited in the course of a >
year he would have but little
time left for anything else and "J
would be decidedly poorer in
purse. In truth this matter of j3
conventions is overdope. Every j
society, great or small, must \
have its convention or several of e
them in the course of a year, r
While in many cases such meet- c
ings are of value, probably with t
most of them it means an ex- ?
penditure of time, money and j J;
vnergy that could he nioreproht- ?
ably utilized in other ways for a
the benefit of the causes in i
whose interest they are held.
Speaker Champ Clark's candi- t
dacy for the Democratic Presidential
nomination continues to t
gather strength. His list of c
delegates instructed or favorable c
has grown in the last week from 2
C6 to 78. Alaska and the Philip- c
ft pines added 12 delegates to the J
number already instructed. His friends
are now so confident of j
his nomination that they believe c
he may be chosen on the first i
ballot
fc <Ms&
The Standard Oil seems to be
maffected by the Supreme Court
lecision. Anyway, it goes into
ts gardens just as it used to, to
rather and cut the melons. The
ast one was exceedingly sweet
md juicy being worth some
>29,000,000. The public also renains
unaffected or, if it is affected
at all, it is to the extent
>f paying higher prices for kerosene
and by-products.
The present topsy-turvydom in
\meriean politics has at least
his to commend it, that it sets
:he people thinking. Far better
:hought and commotion than an
ndifference that makes the
/oters the prey of bosses and
political machines. Out of all
;he present turmoil will come an
ncreased power of the people,
;he purifying of political life,
md a better economic condition.
Weddings oftentimes afford an
>pportunity for some people to
show how idiotic they can be.
)f such are those who play
;oarse, silly, and frequently bru:al
practical jokes upon the bride
md groom.
What the world wants is
iharacter. It cares but little
:'or theological terms and doc;rines
and usually forgets them
)y Monday morning. But charicter
it appreciates every day in
;he week.

[)aily Republican, philosophizes
>n this mysterious class of wanlering
mortals in a recent issue
is follows:
There is no greater mystery
;han that of life, and none: more
ncomprehensible than man. Why

greatness, no system of theology

iome rise to great heights of

ipiritual progress without ap>arent
effort, another go down
n defeat fighting their destiny
jvery inch of the way, while
mother drifts up and dcwn as
:ircumstances force or fancy
lictates. Can all men be good
n spite of birth or environment?
\re men bad because they must,
>r drift because it is their lot to
irift? From time to time one of
;his latter class visits this print

die mystery of life. Usually the
lobo printer arrives dir;y, unkempt,
ragged and pale but nev?r
discouraged or sullen. He
works quietly and every move
:ounts. He can explain a.ny part
>f the work if asked; ne is a
iving dictionary and encyclopedia
combined, and alter work hours,
f he can be induced to talk, you
ind he is versed not only in the
jvents of the day, but is also a
student of history and in close
;ouch with the world's great
ooets, great authors and talks
with equal grace of the drama,
nusic or art. And there he sits
n his filthy rags, a genius in
nind. a master in intellect, a
surveyor of knowledge far superior
to those who employ him.
tfameless he comes and nameless
le goes, making no apology for
lis appearance, asking no favors,
mobstructive, yet affable and
rind. No doubt but that he has
i besetting sin, but wny nas ne: |
The Christian would say he needs
conversion, the mental scientist j
vould say he must strengthen
lis will while theosophy declares
le is following the star of his
iestiny, and can rise only through
*e-birth. Who is right? Reigion
has not solved the probem
or lessened crime. The I
greatest crimes, carefully planled,
cold-blooded murders, are
committed among the clergy and
lighly educated, therefore education
will not remove penal
nstitntions or poverty so the
>nly thing that remains is for the
nan to study himself and learn

earning, his future will take

According to the Fort Mill
rimes, Governor Blease's Gold

SWEEPING VCTORY IN ILLINOIS
FOR CLARK *ND ROOSEVEL1
Press despatches Wednesda
morning stated that incomplet
returns from Illinois precinct
indicate that Theodore "toosevei
led President Taft aboui two an
one-half to one in the p eferer
tial presidential primaryuesda
and that Champ Clark's ote i
the same primary was s ?prox
mately twice that of Gt 'erne

Mr. Clark now claims 3ome
thing over 130 delegates.
Mr. Stewart's Retirement
Manning Times.
We note with regret that Hor
W. H. Stewart of Rock Hill wi
not stand for re-election as Ser
ator of York county. Mr. Stew
art was not only an active cleai
headed senator, but Winthro
college had in him a staunc
support er. Whenever the oppoi
tunity presented itself to g(
anything for Winthrop, Stewai
could always be depended upo
to lead a successful fitrht. It i
men of his calibre which make
a law-making body, and it is sue
men that those who are not e>
perienced in legislation look t
for guidance in matters affectin
the general welfare; always cor
servative and independent, san
and safe. He is a man wh
studied conditions and the
acted from the viewpoint of
conscientious man. The senat
of South Carolina will lose b
the retirement of W. H. Stevt
art.
