No sound-minded man will take Be. riously the twaddle that the Democratic party has ceased to exist as a factor in the affairs of the nation as a result of the recent election. It comes {roni Republicans and selfseeking Democrat# who refused to help Governor Cox and la therefore to ho taken for what It Is worth, and that Is nothing. The Democratic party survived four years of civil war and 12 years after tho war closed elected it* candidate for the presidency. The fact that tho office was stolen from him, partly because of his hick of courage to stand unflinchingly for his own rights eJfd the rights of tho people, detracted nothing from flic general esteem In which the party was held. If the Democratic party could come out of that momentous struggle und In so few years get the approval of the nation In tho midst of all tho bitterness and sectional animosities then In existence, who Is thero with sufficient understanding of what the future holds to say that the party will never be returned to power? Somo people have convenient memories and It Is perhaps worth while to remind these that In 1912 with President Taft running as the Republican candidate for reelection, he got less than * a dozen electoral votes. That defeat, bad as It was, did n"t kill the Republican party, any more than tho defeat last week will kit? the Democratic party. So far as this country Is concerned, the Democratic party and good government? wvrrcnt administered In the Interest ct the people?are synonymous. People who read the,statement thai th* T*>? mocre'lc party Is dead and believe It, ought to* consult their wellh?lnnced neighbors for an opinion of tholr credulity. While tho price of cotton Is much lower than It should he to afford the farmers a profit and to produce healthy business conditions in the South, nothing would be trained in th?< <.nit. Ion of The Times, by adop.lng the suggestion of J. Skottowe WannnTnaker, preslilcnt of tho American Cotton association. that tho various legislatures of the cotton States bo called into extra session to enact >nws providing that tho number of acres of cotton per plow be tlxcd for next veer and that the farmer who wont beyond the maximum would subject hbnsrlf to prosecution for tho offense. Several governors have refused to moke themselves a party to su.-h legislation, which their good sense telis tlicm would*be unconstitutional, could not be enforced and would result in strife and confusion coextensive with the efforts to enforce the law. Such a law was passed at the extra session of the South Carolina Legislature In 1914 in response to the general dc' mnnd of the people of tho State that' something he done by law if possible to relieve the stagnant condition of the cotton market brought about by the outbreak of the World war. when the prico of tho staple dropped to nhout five cents per pound and the "buy a ba! " niovomeht, which may or may not . tve done the South good, crime into existence. Few members of tho Legislature perhaps entertained the opinion that the law could be enforced, and in reporting the bill. providing for a maximum of six acres of cotton to the plow, tho judiciary committee exoressod the opinion that ' the courts would not uphold such a law. Nevertheless, the bill became an net. Iiiko n drowning man, the 1 egislnture was grabbing at a straw. Anything promising relief from the bankruptcy facing the State was considered Justifiable. But the law never became effective. Fortunately the price of cotton took an appreciable bound upward between the adjournment of the tflttrn session ofMhe Legislature In the fall of 1914 and the meeting of the regular seslon of the lawmakers the following January and the law was therefore repealed about 45 days after Its passaga and Iwfore the time arrived to undert ?ke Its enforcement Tt la " ' would have been contested In the eourta and probably would not have stood. Tho efforts of Mr. Wannamakcr to bring about better conditions for the farmers, and consequently for everybody else In this section, are commendable, but wo fear he Is wasting his energy on a plan which ? would not be productive of the results ha Is seeking. tax Levies for Offlcs of the County Treasurer of York County.
