The News and Courier Was. a factor

These newspapers spoke for half
the voters that elected him over Mr.
Blease,-and the people in the several
counties “mandated” their legislators
against his notions about highways.
That is what their votes prove. These
gentlemen in the legislature are not
defying their constituencies. They are
not imbeciles.
The majority of the people, includ
ing The I*^W8 and Courier, were not
disposed to make a great fight for
the old highway commission. They

The New.s and Courier is no enrap
tured admirer of this particular legis
lature and has often said as much,
but that it will not and does not stand
for the preposterous attempt of the
governor to humble it, to humiliate
the state, to stigmatize as evil men
highway commissioners who,, have
worthily and at personal sacriUce
served the public, on the whole serv^
it well, as the roads that the people
use testify, 1s to its high credit.
Before the general assembly should
submit to what by every evidence is
an effort to johnstonize the state re
gardless of its damage to other men
a( least as good as he the general as
sembly should stay in session till
doom cracks.! And never mind the
cost, for Olin D. Johnston is answer-
able for every dollar of that cost.
The general assembly has made re
peated concessions to the governor.
There is plenty of room for settle
ment of the quarrel. The only pos
sible obstacle to a settlement and to
adjournment of the ^neral xssembly
now left is a Johnston more concern
ed fbf~ himself than for South Caro-
lina. We luqie and trust he is not
