The Dorchester Eagle anbounces that the merchants of St. George will close their places of business from April 1st to September 1st. at 7 o'clock p. m. ‘‘to enable all our clerks and workers to enjoy tti- benefits of the afternoons.” How much afternoon do ti.oy have at >t Georce, anyway? That was rather a patriotic thin.' for the Charleston Cotton Exchange to do last w***-k. It ran a half pa' 1 advertisement in all the papers of the State asking farmers to plant less cotton anf more food stuffs This war is developing many traits in men which we have been thinking were so long dormant as to be dead HI.EASE’S OPENING GI N The address of former Governor Mease delivered at Manning Hatur* day, which was the opening gun of the campaign for fnited States Sen ator. did not ring true. Almost his entire time was taken up refutin'.' the charges that he was not loyal to his country, and in presenting testimony to offset the rumors that will not down. Tho fact remains that he did make some very un patriotic utterances, and was* cnlhwfef down so effectively that he has had nothing at all to say publicly for nearly eight months. and It will take a lot of documentary evidence to convince many men who were strong supporters of his that he is entirely loyal to his country. Th'* further fact remains that in spite of the seeming great hold he has on the people of the State, Mec.se has not raised his voice in support of any of the war measures the Gov ernment has wished placed before the people. Too late, we fear, Coley. Tillman will retain his seat - and^ stay in Washington where he can serve his country boat. - - •very ounce of energy w« hare mast he concentrated .upon doing our fall- share. , There is no time to be breaking In new men In important positions. Senator Tillnjan is chair man of the Naval committee of the Senate, and he is perfectly familiar with every detail of the great work the navy must do to help in wthajng this war. To place a new man in the Senate from South Carolina would be to surrender what Influ ence the State bos j>n this impor tant committee, for even supposing that the new man could secure ap pointment on this committee be would have to start at the bottom and It would be - several years before he could have the influence or the information which- Senator TNlrnan haa been able to acquire by his Ion? sendee and his ability. So much for the State equation in this matter. The Nation would suffer by losing such an able man as Tillman, in the influential sltion which he occupies, there would be no question that the nation would sfill have every ounce of Tillman’s ability to draw upon, even if he were defeated. But we can see no wisdom at this time of changing. The old and well known maxim of the horse trader applies: "Never swap horses in the middle of the stream.” Now Iteprerentative Lever wants to run the worst sort, and Levtr would make an excellent Senator. He is also making good as chair man of the Agricultural committee of the House. For him to run for the Senate would force a new man •jr in the House and he likewise would have no Influence there. So we* are firmly convinced now that it is better for South Carolina to ke»-p the**- two tried men in theie places. Senator Tillman seems to possess enough ability physically toJC turn out all the work he needs to do, and. indeed, he seems to hand!* his duties there with dispatch and with energy. He is always on t!.-* Job, and can he reached hy his con stituents whenever they nee<j him! Then, too, he Is a trained legislator, and this is worth A bitter political do no good this year, and many do much harm. We must win the warr end we need only men in these im portant positions who can work in perfect harmony with their collea gues, and with the heads of the de partments. Tillman in the Senate and Lever in the House can do this sod they are doing , it.
