Almoin Way Another hot war in on between Governor Ansel and Superintend ent of Kduoatlon O. H. Martin, the cause being that the Governor has again made' an appointment upon the State Hoard of Education without consulting Mr. Martin. The law does not way that the Gov ernor shall consult tho Superinten dent in making these appointments hut as a mutter of policy it is de sirable that the Hoard shall work in harmony with the Slate Super intendent. Mr. Martin thinks that he has been / very unjustly dealt with by the Governor and lias written him a very caustic let ter, the last paragraph of which we givo below : "As you perhaps know,you have next year the appointment of the remaining members of the Stale board of education, with the ex ception of the secretary, who holds the position ex-ofllcio us State Su perintendent of Kducation, and I have the supreme satisfaction of knffwing that I do not have to sit with them nor be hound by their actions. I /wish to give you the pleasure of knowing here and now that 1 shall not bo a member of that board any longer than is nec essary for me to discharge my du ty and obligations to the people of South Carolina. For two term* I have been elected State Superin tendent of Kducation without op position. I have disciiarged my I duties fearlessly and vigorously. I fee! the satisfaction of having dom some good for my people. I shall not ask for re-election. I mention this In order that you may indulge and cherish the fond hope of get ting a satteilito of your own ilk. I am somewhat. In the position of the old negro woman who went into a dry goods store ami asked for three ! yards ( f red rihhon. The clerk was very bow-legged. He started across the store and said: '?Walk, this way." The old woman HHid : "No, sir; I'll do wiihujjl the rihhon before I'll walk dat way." And I'll do without my ribbon before l'U wblk your wny " Mr. Martin's position may lie right, but wo do not think ho isju* tifled in using the language lie did to the Chief Executive of the Stale He should have ? expressed himself in milder terms. In yesterday's Columbia iteoo?d Representative John (i. IiichatdH is quoted as saying: uYea, in my Judgment, the hand writing on tho wall spella prohibi tion?State prohibition. The sen timent for prohibition has been steadily growing for the past sev? oral years, not onlv in thin State but throughout the South and West. It is tuy deliberate judg ment that the people of this Slate desire a prohihitoty law, and that public senliment is such tl.at it can and will he enforced. Heliev ing this, and being anxious to aid in every way that I can to pro mote tho best interests or our peo ple, I shall certainly advocate a prohibition law." $ Tho Camden Hoc.

This committee is made up of the men who sit around an excava tion for a new building, whittle pine sticks, spit tobacco juice on the fresh dirt and watch the other fellows work. It's all right to show interest in new build ings, in town develop ment and progress, but there's a better way. You can do more good for yourself and the community by re signing from "The Citi zens' Committee" and getting into the General Progress Committee. This committee is the one that PUTS UP THE NEW BUILDINGS, brings new business into town to occupy them, paints the old houses, keeps the sidewalks in good repair, beautifies the front yards, cleans up the back yards and otherwise makes this town a better town to live in. The General Progress Committee is the Unofficial Town Booming Comrrittee. It really ought to be organ ized and made official. Let all of us work together for the advancement of the town we live in, and there will be more room around new excavations for the fellows at work to throw out the dirt. ? Eternal industry is the price of progress. Let's all fall in line for the General Progress Commit tee?and then JUST WATCH TIIE OLD TOWN CiKOW.
