SHOCKED
E SENATE (AILS FIN IEFORN
OF PIIHAIT
BE POINTS OUT WRONGS
Sp«cMo*ll)r Rcfeni to the First Dis
trict In Exhortation that the Name
of the State be Kept Clean, and
Says It is Time to Take Steps to
End Corruption.
At Washington on Thursday Sen
ator Tillman gave out the following
statement about patronage and poli
tics in the first South Carolina Con
gressional district:
“Some people in Charleston and
Colleton counties will not understand
Just how or why Mr. Murray hue be
come postmaster at Wallerboro,
while Mr. Storen has lost out In his
fight for the position as collector of
customs at Charleston. The situa
tion was just this:
"George I^egare, while Jiving, en
dorsed both of these men for the re
spective o’fllces and 1 promised him I
would do what I could for both of
them.
"While the second primary was
still pending in the Congressional dis
trict both names were sent to the
President for appointment, but no ac
tion was taken. Senator Smith and
I endorsed both men and had the ap
pointment been made when the
names first went to the President
both would have been tn office now
For some reason, which I have never
been able to understand Mr. Mur
ray's name cams te the Senate for
ptntmaster at Walterboro while Stor
sn's name bung fire.
"When Mr. Whaley came to Wash
tegton and urged his lights to make
thn appointments in his district as we
all had agreed that. Congressmen
Should do, the situation, was, as I
hire aJbovs Indicated. We endorsed
Mr. Murray, and to our surprise, the
name came to the Ssnale tbs day af
ter Mr Wbsiey appeared here and
the second primary bad been
Although he was s Congreas-
an. he wan to ali Intents and pur
electsd. and we so recognised
him
"ItesIlKlng that It would be unfair
in n&r Whaley to press Steren'a ap
paUlSumit. under the of rc uni* ten res
we held It up and waited for newa
Charleston. I wrote to (ieorgs
bosom friends there and ask
e4 their opinion sad advice. The re
siles were that If George I eg a re were
living they believed he would be
sgalast Mores rather than for him.
"Mr. Whaley had Indicated a pre
ference for Mr. Harvey first, end for
Mr. Fosters second. Finally It was
agreed the* Mr. Peters should be rec
ommended for appofatmeot and hla
name was sent to the President and
is now before the Penate
"Murray's appointment had been
made and was out of reach before
Mr. Whaley arrived In Washington
The Senators would have stultified
themselves had they tried to recall
It. With Stores, the case was differ
ent. and we did recall hie name and
suhntltoted Peters. Mr. Storen's ac-
Lfv%y against Mr. Whaley is the
oahhe of his failure to get the office.
"I think K worth while, and, in-
my duty, to warn the people
a# the first Congressional district,
that If half we hear in Washington
Aa true somebody ought to he put in
the Penitentiary pretty soon. An
examination of the Peoal Cod» shows
thart Sessions 360, 361, 362, 363 and
366 have all been violated by more
people than are aware of It, perfcivpe.
Promises, to give offices, actual pay-
mint of money for votes, and other
serious crimes are mentioned. Many
men. uot in one county, but In sev-
eod, are liable to go to the Peniten
tiary or pay fines. The papers of
the State would do well and render
the public a service if they would
print these sections of the Code as a
warning to office seekers and their
friends.
**I sincerely trust that the next ses-
skm of the Legislature will throw
tutih safeguards around the primary
an to make the corruption which Is
otutrged impossible to occur. We
hMra laws enough fraud and
bribery. If they are only enforced,

DOES NOT FEAR BILL

1)1’(TNG TARIFF.
Hays the Democratic Party U Com
mitted to a Reduction of the Duties
on Goods.
United States Senator B. R. Till
man does not fear any disaster to the
Indutsrl&l conditions In the South as
the result of the new tariff measure,
but from a letter he wrote to T. M.
Norris, a cotton manufacturer of
Cateecbee, he Is willing to make a
test for the show-down. The party
is committed to a reduction of the
tariff downward, says the Senator,
and there is little prospect of getting
the Senate to change the bill. To
Mr. Norris Senator Tillman wrote:
“My Dear Mr. Norris: I have yours
of April 3 0, and almost every cotton
mill man In the state has bombarded
me with telegrams yesterday and last
night. I presented them in the Sen
ate this morning as petitions, and
they were referred to the finance
committee which deals with the tar
iff scheduha.
"I am afraid there is little or no
prospect for help In the Senate to
change the tariff bill as it will come
from the House. But the Democratic
party Is committed to tariff revision
downward, and If we are going to
have soup houses and a general shut
down the sooner the better.
"I am urging my colleagues to
pass the bill promptly and get it on
the statute books In order to let the
medicine begin to work. I do not
believe that disastrous times as
you seem to anticipate will come. I
think you must be influenced by your
Northern correspondents who are in
the same business as you
“Assuring you of my deep Interest
In the welfare of the manufacturing
Industry In South Carolina and my
willingness to do anything In my
power, 1 am very stncereTy “yours,
"Ik U Tillman.”

Waking the Sleeping Dogs.
By playing politics with the Japa-
aeae question, says The New York
World, the Californians appear to
have raised an Issue that will he
more troublesome to them than the
ownership by aliens of a few thou
sand acres of land. What will It
profit the Hiram Johnson dema-
goguea If In their blithe attempt to
put the Democrat* Into a hole they
sat In motion force* that may extend
our Sal u Palliation law to Mongo
Hans
The statute now covers "free
while persons, native* of Africa and
persons of African descent " We owe
this Jumble to the Californians them-
aelve*. who in 1 870 defeated Charles
Humner’s effort to strike out the
word "white ". To gain their point
In excluding Orientals and to gratify
hU desire to admit negroes of every
degree, they gave us a law which for
folly and Incongruity Is almost wit-
out precedent The blacks of the
Dark Continent and all their descend
ants anywhere on earth may become
cltlrens, but Chinese and Japan«‘se
are barred.
While eome of the lower courts
have sustained this Interpretation of
the law. the question ha* never yet
been passed upon by the Supreme
Court It is to this tribunal that
Japan Itself now contemplate* an ap
peal. Probably It Is to this proceed
ing that President Wilson refers
when he speaks of "bringing on what
might be long and delicate litiga
tion."
No matter what the result of such
a suit might be , the controversy
would hardly end with the court's
Judgment. After that we should have
agitation and legislation and exceed
ingly troublesome ‘‘diplomacy. In
stead of a little Japanese question we
should have a big one. The sleepings
dogs of race prejudice whlcli the dem
agogues would not let lie would be
awake for a generation to oome.
DR. J. MARION SIMS.
Ckore are no officials ready to carry
ttiem out. Public opinion must com
pel the officers to do their duty or
else the State will be corrupted
tltrougliout Its border®. It will be
remembered that these statues were
enacted after * Congressional race In
the second district where much mon-
ef Iras used, ft Is every clear to my
mind that the Democratic party must
Ulce active, aggressive steps to stop
•tfUh transactions. We cannot hope
For good government otherwise, or to
maintain the State’* fair name. It Is
enough to make any South Carolin
ian ashamed of hie State to hear of
so much rottenness and corruption in
the First Congressional district.”

Monument In New York in Honor of
South Carolinian.
In Bryant Park, New York, there
is a monument, said to be the first
erected to the memory of a physician
in America, and one of the few exist
ing In th© world. This memorial
J. Marlon 31ms, at
South Carolina, a graduate of the
Medical College of South Carolina,
which institution, from Its seat in
Charleston, has sent out man/ great
and eminent doctors who made them
selves distinguished In their profes
sion throughout the entire country.
The Inscription on this monument
is "J. Marion Sims, M. D., LLD.,
Founder of the Woman’s Hospital of
the State of New York.” His bril
liant achievements carried the fame
of American surgery throughout the
civilized world. In recognition of his
services in the cause of science and.
mankind, he received the highest
honors in the gift of his countrymen
and decorations from the Govern

The Cause of Disease and Death is
Pointed Ont, and the Importance
of Registration is Shown.—Tuber
culosis is on the Decline, But Sui
cide is on the Increase.
In a bulletin made public by Direc
tor Durand, Bureau of the Census,
Department of Commerce, regarding
the causes of death for tho registra
tion area of the United dtaLs for
1911 the total number of deaths
from all forms of tuberculosis dur
ing the year is given aa 94,20a, the
death rate from this disease being
158.9 per 100,000. This death rate
of previous years 160.3 being the
rate for 1910 and 160.8 for 190?.
The death rate for the past three
years has been C9naiderably lower
than those of the preceding five years.
On the other hand the siatistics
show a marked Increase in the num
ber of suicides and in the number of
deaths by violence. On the subject
of suicides and other deaths the re
port treads: The total number of
deaths from suicide In the registra
tion area for 1911 was 9,622, an In
crease of 1,03 2 over the preceding
year. The death rate, however, in
creased only 16 to 16.2 per IOOjOoO
and was lower than that for 1 909,
1C.5; for 1 908, 1 7.8. There Is a
tendency to apparent increase In ihe
death rate from suicide.
The death rate of the white popu
lation In the registration an-a from
suicide, 16.5, was higher than that
uf the colored papulation, in ».
Among the registration states, the
highest doath rates from this cause
were in California, 30 1 ; Montana.
.’7 X; Colorado. 21.7; Washington,
27 7. and Vermont, 20.1, and among
the cities of 100,000 population and
over San Francisco, 39 4, St. Ixmls.
77 7, Los Angeles. 3 7 2, Denver,
t‘i 6. and Oakland, 35 1
Of the total number of deaths In
the registration area In 1911 classi
fied as violent deaths (excluding sui
cide i 54 "2X, more than nine-tenths.
•‘"1.12 1, were of an accidental or un
derlined character, the remainder I**-
Ing due to homlol !e The death rate
from accidental and unspecified vlo-
|en< e as x4 6 p«r luo.ooo ;>opulation
which is slightly higher than the rate
for the preceding year, x t :{, but low
er than the average for the consecu
tive periods 1901 to 19u5. 84 9; and
1905 to 1910, 86. Homicide was re
ported a* the cause of 3.907 doaths
In 1911, the rate being 6 6 per 100,-
ono population. The cities of 100.-
000 population and over having the
highest ratee were Memphis. 191 7
Scranton. 177.3. Birmingham. 151.9
Albany. 131, and Boston. 1 25 3.
Following la the report on tubercu
losds "The total number of deaths
from all forms of tuberculosis In the
registration area during 1911 was
94.205, the death rate being 158 9
per 100,000 -slightly lower than the
rates for the preceding years. 160.3
and 160.8 for 1910 and 1 909, respec
tively. The rate* for the past three
years are considerably lower than the
annual averages for the quinquenial
periods 19.01 to 1 905, 1 92.6 and
1 906, 1 68 7. There would appear
to be a marked reduction in the
death rate from this disease, al
though the rate for the past three
years has remained practioally un
changed.
"The highest death rates from all
forms of tuberculosis shown for the
States In the resigratlon area were
those of Kentucky, 229.3; Colorado,
218; California, 206.8; Maryland,
2 03.3. and the lowest rates were those
of Utah, 46.8; 'Michigan, 96; Wiscon
sin, 103.8; Washington, 106.7; and
Montana, 107.1. The high death rate
for the group of North Carolina mun-
iclpallflee, 256.8 per 100,000 was due
to the urban conditions and the large
colored population.
The cities of 100,000 population
and over in 1910 having the highest
death rates from tuberculosis of all
forms were Denver, 292.7; Los An
geles, 277.5; Albany, 269.4; Cincin
nati, 2 65.3; and New Orleans. 260.5:

The use of money in any election is
wrong and is to he condemned Any
movement looking to the atxvlltion of
'he practice is to be encouraged. But
one should first be sure that the
movement is initiated by one that is
sincere. If Mayor Grace really
wishes to stamp out the practice of
spending money on elections in Char
leston and the first district, he should
head a popular movement to that end
and he would without doubt have the
support of the better class of people
in his city and district.
"If. however, he docs not desire bo
much to stump out the practice of

as to unseat Whaley then his course
deserves the condemnation of the
public and will undobuetdiy receive
it. The public likes a good fighter
but it does not like a fighter that
"aqueals" when he loses. We have
no idea that anything will come out
of the protest of Mayor Grace insofar
as the seating of Whaley is concern
ed. It may, however, lead to a fight,
whether Mayor Grace so desires it or
not, to stamp out the corrupt prac
tices in Charleston elections. If so, it
will have brought abouLa good re=-
