THR CHIAPMT NONBCN0E ' J ' /' ' ' -'" t ' T . , // :?**?.' >*/J Of all the nonsense with which this unoffending state has been lately afflicted that about Governor Johnston's humble origin and struggle to obtain a start la the most ridiculous. Now the plain truth la that South Carolina haw had four or five governors wince 1896 who had beginnings no easier than Mr. Johuatou'a. Governor Ansel, for exumple, waw the son of a German immigrant, but we do not nu.all thai juypj". f?*j eHpItftMzed it. He had too iyvith good aenae. The late Gov^y^or McHweeney was a printer boy here in Charleston, Governor llobert A. Cooper was the won of u small farmer (fine citizen he wuh) in i^aurena and probably had harder going than Mr. Johnston-? for he came to manhood in the middle of the nineties when to get hold of a dollar called for five times the toil and uucrlflce that they did when Mr. Johnston was working his way through college. Others could be mentioned. United States Senator Byrnes was an office boy in Charleston and got nto college education. There are otherw holding high posts who were equally poor?but they do not roar about it from the housetops. It is not important. "Before the War," the Confederate war, it was the same way. No man in South Carolina began nearer the bottom, from the poverty point of view, or mounted higher in the life of the republic, thun Ganglion Cheves who came to Charleston from Abbeville. George McDuffie was a country boy in Georgia. Christopher G. Mema tningor, secretary of the treasury of the Confederacy and one of the founders of Charleston's public school system, waw the won of a pooor gen-tleman and was brought up in the Charleston orphan house. .lames H. Hammond, governor, senator and in statecraft almost without a peer, came from a brilliant family, unci his father was a "Yankee schoolteacher" In Newberry county. Major General and later Associate Justice Samuel McOowan was the son of an Irish immigrant who probably had less to begin with than Mr. Johnston's father had?he lpade money farming and sent his sons to college. Many prominent South Carolinians have been horn to good fortune, butt hundreds of poor hoys have had their chance and gained high position in ' this state, where talent and character have1 always had recognition. When-one hears of politicians boasting of their "hard struggles" one may sot it down that they ure lamentably ignorant of the history of their state or that they are out to pull' the wool over ignoramuses. Sensible men have more interesting things to discuss and are thinking less about themselves.?Charleston News and Courier. ' Bandit Out&tot By Determined Civilian Arab, Ala., Jan. 1.?A bank bandit lay dead today, the victim of a fastmovlhg and straight-shooting .civilianThe robber, named by Sheriff O. D. Taylor as Bill Abbney of the Brindley Mountain region, entered and seized $f?G0 at the point of a pistol, escaping from the building amid an exchange of shots with Assistant ('ashler Kirby Howard. The shooting and a burglar alarm wore heard by A. R. Ingram, 31, who was in a nearby drug store. Ho gave chase as Abney ran by the store and j brought the fleeing bandit to bay j about a quarter of a mile outside the , town. Guns of both men cracked out and ' after a flurry of ten or a dozen shots , the robber fell mortally wounded wt.lv, two bullets in his body. He died a few minutes later?* Ingram was unhurt. Speaker Byrnes, of the house of representatives, back in Washington from a junket, to the Philippine- Islands, predicts that both the senate and house will dispose of the cash soldier bonus issue by February 1.
