THURSDAY. JANUARY 30. 1913. j
The trouble with Senator Tillman
seems to be that he thinks
he is as all-powerful in South
Carolina politics today as he was
in the '90s. In the decade from
1890 to 1900 Senator Tillman's
will was law in this State so far
as it affected his own political 1
interests; but this is another1:
decade and another generation;1
has come on and is running the
affairs of the Commonwealth.
So if Senator Tillman imagines <
that he can sit in his office in!1
Washington and indite a newspaper
article which will be received
in South Carolina with!:
loud and rowdy hurrahs for Tillman
as was the case fifteen years |1
ago his imagination is getting)
the upperhand of his reason.
There are no hurrahs for Tillman !
today as there were when he
defeated General Earle and John
Sheppard for the governorship
and when he later had a difficulty
with "Standard Oil" McLaurin
on the floor of the Senate. 1
Although he was renominated
for the Senate no later than last
August, Senator Tillman has lost
the support and well wishes of
thousands who were formerly
his friends, and it is all but certain
that he could not today receive
a majority of votes in a
Democratic primary to succeed
himself in the Senate. Nor is
this change of sentiment toward
Senator Tillman due in the main
to Bleaseism. Senator Tillman
has been losing ground politically
for years. Old friends who
supported him loyally in his
campaigns for the governorshii
and in his race for the Senate i
against General butler have le.;
go the hold they then had on hi. i
coat-tail, as lie used to coi.
temptuoi.sly express his apt iv-!
ciation for the friendship of man: j
of those who are now disgusted j
with themselves for havinj
helped him as they did.
No one in this section interest
ed in cnrn-irmwinor wlin mi
afford the trip to Columbia shoulti
fail to attend the National Corn
Exposition. It is doubtful whether
the present generation ot
home-staying South Carolinians
will have another such opportunity
to witness as comprehensive
a display of agricultural
development and progress as that
which is now at our door, and
the small cost involved in attending
the exposition for a day
or two should be a minor consideration
to those who wish to
learn more than they already
know of the practical application
of progressive principles of corngrowing.
South Carolina farmers
are not overstocked with
knowledge as to most profitable
way to grow corn and the opportunity
they now have to learn
much that will prove useful to
1.1- - - > -? ?

taken advantage of.
Country life has its drawbacks,
but it has its great advantages
which overcome them. True,
those who live in the country
are "rubes" and "farmers" and
"hayseeds" to the cigarette
smokers in town, but the boast
of the business men in the world'
today is that they were born on
the farm. Take away the surrounding
evils that beset the
young men or women on the
threshold of life's journey in the
city, and substitute the helpful
influences of nature, and you
fortify them for the sterner
walks of life.
The Gaffney Ledger seems to
be peeved over the fact that
there are not enough people in
Gaffney to warrant the Federal
government in giving the town
free delivery of mail matter and
remarks "that Mr. Fin ley might
be able to stir himself in Washl?1_
? ?i. ?? **
iii&iisw aim ucip US UUl. IVIT.
Finley, we warrant our contemporary,
will "stir himself" when
Gaffney stirs herself a little
more. Meanwhile the national
government isn't going to give
Gaffney free delivery until the
requirements of the Postoffice
Department are complied with.
Mr. Finley knows as much and
he is not apt to ask the department
to do otherwise. The
Ledger, instead of holding Mr.
Finley responsible for a condi
tion over which he has no control,
could more becomingly give
him credit for holding up the reappointment
of the imported Republican
postmaster who has held
the job in Gaffney for the last
four years.
Some of the newspapers across
the line in North Carolina are
having a good deal to say about
ex-Governor Robert Glenn as the
successor of Senator Lee S.
Overman in the Senate of the
United States in 1915. If we
may be permitted an observation
on the subject, it is that Governor
Glenn will have a hard time defeating
Senator Overman, who
has made an acceptable Senator
and who is not apt to be retired
simply to gratify the ambition
of some one else. Among his
colleagues, Senator Overman is
more popular than any otner
Senator from the South Atlantic
States. If he is not hindered
during the next year or two by
having to devote a great deal of
time to retaining his seat, North
Carolina and the country generally
will profit much by his
service.
Debt rolls a man over and
over, binding hand and foot,
'etting him hang upon the fatal
nesh, until the long-legged interest
devours him. There is but
one thing upon the farm like it
11 (1 that is the Canadian thistle
l.ich swarms new plants every
c you break its loots, whose
!.!ossctps are prolific, and every
'-wor (lie father of a million
^eeds; every leaf is an awl, every
>ranch a fix fir, nnd every plant
\ platoon of bayonets, and a
leld of them like an armed host.
The whole plant is a tormented
.vgetable curse, and yet the
armor had Letter make his bed
ti Canadian thistles than atv
mjii ic Lo at ease on interest.
Ti is to be hoped that the
rVni<-?u.n students who are to
?reet President-elect Wilson with
he "locomotive" cheer of that
institution when he arrives in
Washington for the inauguration
will augment their hollering
strength with the voice of "Seaioard
Bill" Stevenson.

Every man talks in an important
way about his mail. He
has to po down Sundays to pet
his mail: hates to leave town because
he misses bis mail, and all
there is in it is a bill or two and
circulars advertisinp a mininp
scheme. If he chances to be at
home when he opens it, "hush"
