(\, January 18, 1924 Senator KUinon I). Smith -of South Carolina, wan on Wednesday' elected chairman of the inter-state* ommerce committee, one of the ranking com mittees of the new congress, Tht election^ canie on the 32d ballot ana rnaikctl tin- breaking up 0? the dead lock which had existed Hi nee Decem ber !". The vote was lor Smith, for CutnmlnjlfH and <5 for Senator C'ou zens of Michigan. Smith was elected by a majority of 1, with 7 1 senators voting. The election of Smith was accomplished with the votes of Re publicans Brookhart of Iowa, Krazier j and Ladd of South Dakota and I.a^ Kollette of Wisconsin. According to the records this is the l?r?t time that an important committee has ever b?1'" headed by a representative of the party opposite from thatwhich was in the majority. Senator Smith is one of those who fought the transporta tion act both in committee and on the floor of the senate and that is why he had the endorsement of Senator La^ Follette from the latter's sick bed last month. "Attend revival services orice a week or go to jail." This was the edict of Judge A, M. Stack of Monroe, who on Monday. opened a six months term as presiding judge of the Meck lenburg superior court in Charlotte to persons contacted of gambling in his court. Twelve men were convicted of gambling and fined Various sums and ~Wnt CiU;('d TT> A O c Ye sixty (lay's "each in jail. The jail sentences were sua* pended by the judge with the proviso that the men must refrain frona pmb ting for three ytmrs and once a week must attend service now being con ducted here by Kev. YV. A. ("Billy"'* Sunday. Judge Stack also ordered the grand jury to indict persons connected with recent boxing bouts held at. .the <.ity auditorium here. He named a number of boxorx and referees of the various bouts. The judge also ordered that bucket shop houses be investi gated to ascertain it' they -are dealing m cotton and grain fu'.ures, which he told the jury \ve?x? in violation of the law. The proposition lor the establish ment of a .itate printing office in which to do the state printing and in addition to publish school books at cost is coming up again. Maybe advice of those who hnvt had experience and think ihey know something is not wanted; bu? being in a position to say its say, The Yorkville Enquirer is tak ing the liberty of making a few gra tuitous remarks anyway. There is no question of the; fact that the atato ban requirement for enrfugh printing to run a big printing office. There is nol now a printing office in the state tJiat is capable of doing all the print ing that is required by the state. Ther-.? is not a printing office that would not Juivr . a>lr| wnwy ^Ur* worth of machinery before jJj?ouJd do all t hi?j work." Even now a good deal of the state |?in|j||g ii Ann outside fctyheitattffofr l#fekof ffcil$es with in the state. This is especially true of a large amount of lithographing* and l h*- pointing of internal revenue >. tamps. But all the same the state cannot potfsibly do its printing in a State owned shop any cheaper than it Ut getting it done now. Then- are many kinds' of printing the doing of which will call for heavy investment, far out of proportion to the amount of such printing required. For in stance, the printing of revenue stamps requires special machinery which will be capable of printing in a month all the stamps that will be used in a year, and during the balance of the year the machinery will be idle. Thin will be. true of many other kinds of printing. As heavy as is the cost of some of the printing now done, if tho state should attempt it the cost would be much heavier. Now we would have it un derstood that the Yorkville Enquirer does not do. one bit of this printing, and that the establishment of a state printing office would npt affect the business of The Yorkville Enquirer any more than The Yorkville Enquir er's business is now affected by the government printing office at Wash ington. ^THat means not at all. But the state certainly has no businoss with a printing office and if the state does establish one it will not be ^ great while, before the people come to appreciate the Xqll truth of wha^ we have rfiid.-t-iforki Enquirer, ? >' *'? j , | i . . ; ' Ttyj de'^th of GUfcsie Folden, a negro woman ?fb IHenderson, Ky., on Mo*n day? brought (thc total number of deaths ,f*onp tetanus at that place to seVen u'ftce the Christmas holidays.

Naturally that China tragedy in Sumter excites interest and people are disposed to make comments. Some will say that the woman did right, others will say that she was ^ foofJ, and still others say that the death, of Mrs. China . following the jelling, of her husband is the best possible ending of the whole matter. Many will agree with that last proposition; but even this does not satisfy^ for there can be no satisfaction about such a matter-. The mbst that can lie said of it all is simply this: If men and women cannot livo as they should live, they've got to pay. It does not necessarily follow that somebody has, to be killed. So far as that is con ceraeii-AV>'. must all die anyhow; but surely if we do wrong we've got to pay. The Almighty God has ordained it that way, and men and women will do well to keep the fact in mind.? YnrW ? F!nrjiiifnr. Mrs. Mary Copley Thaw, 81, mother of Hhrry K. Thaw, h^s expressed her self'as unalterably opposed to the re moval of Hhrry Thaw from a Penn sylvania insane asylum. One of the conditions of the governor of Pennsyl vania in refusing a requisition by the governor of New York for Harry K. Thaw, in 1017, was that if Harry was ever declared sane he would be imme diately turned over to the New York authorities' for trial on two indict* ments held against him in that state. Mrs. Thaw's objection to her son's re lease is based on this fact. Ralph Collins was acquitted by a jury at Plymouth, N. C., Saturday of the charge of having murdered Dr. A. W . Uisoway with a double barrelled tfun while the doctor was asleep in an Indian's cabin during a hunting trip.
