Editor Press To the Dll f or of In** Pre.>s ami Standard: *. I ami Standard : Pardon me for a. In the matter of your editorial 1 few questions concerning the con* “Men tq Blame,’’ issue of Feb. 2nd. 1 |H*rhap- the lad>t complainant to whom wiu refer was a tritle hard on the men and did not justly discrim inate lietween the men who have favored the work and aided it linan-j cialiy and those who have n*it. But not far from your sanctum, indited very near to it. is the evi dence of an attempt on the part of tin* league to a*Id to the beauty of Walterboro that has been thwarted, as I have been informed, by the fail ure of certain male citizens to make good what the ladies of the league regarded as a promise. They say Who will be the judges or how w ill the committee lie appointed to v * t judg** the tinu-h of the contest? I understand that there will In? a com ttfee, but wh*i or by what meHii- will they be appoiiitid? Agu in. who is tiu* manager of this contest? Will the editog of this p;qH*r have control? Does he himself count the votes as they come each week? I ask these questions simply be cause 1 do not live in Colleton and do they were told by one in authority ! not know anything of the public that if they did .certain work onitaik, t .(c. t except through the j Court Hou-e Square the county j columns of your valuable paper, wotiid do certain other work there,; I &rn interested in the contest, the result of which Would Ike to make the temple of justice ami its environ ment attractive and in keeping with the dignity of the law which it repre sents. Th** good ladies have spent more than one hundred solid '‘plunks’’ of their money in carrying out their part of the work; has the county yet (tpent a cert towards the part of the work that it was to do? Moreover, it was upon the faith of the promise, as they understood it, that the ladies spent their hard earned money —they would not otherw ise have spent it - is it no£ time for the county to make a showing? I am not sure that the ladies have not, in this; specific in- stance at least, some ground for their contention that the men are to blame. Do you imagine that if the county had done this work, reiving on the Civic I«**ague to take it up and carry it on because of a promise' on it»« part to do so, do you imagine the league would thus have kft the county in the lurch? Perhaps it may lie said in reply that the county is not in funds for this object, or that the party prom ising as aforesaid had not the author ity so to do, but why wete not these objections made known before the ladies had actually entered on and done their preparatory work and sjAent their money? Everyone must admit that such conditions are dis* tinctly discourging to the league, and if they are jj|roing to he ailow«sl to become permanent. Walterboro of a hundred years hence will show no great improvement over the W’al- terboro of todfy. Fair Play. —, - - it Mrs. J. P.
