THIS NEXT PRESIDENT.
Who will be the next Presi
dent? This is a question that
is beginniurr to agitate the pub
lic wind. Why, we just can't
say, as the nominating conven
tions tire a considerable period
distant.
As the question is being moot
ed however, -we have given it a
httle thought and give you the
benefit of it. Tlieru is not the
slightest doubt that President
Roosevelt can have the Repub
lican nomination again if he
wants it, and there is also no
doubt that he would be a hard
man to beat. The President
says that lie doesn't want it.
-Secretary Taft is the second
strongest man for the place in
the Republican rauics, but we do
not think he can win if a rnau of
progressive as well as conserva
tive ideas is nominated by the
Democratic convention. The
other prospective Republican
candidates may be left out of the
running as there is practicully
no chauce for their nomination.
Now, what about a Democra
tic caudidate? It is easy to
forecast that whoever ho is, he
will have a rough road to travel,
and if he isn't in complete ac
cord with all classes of the peo
ple he is a beaten man. Opiuion
is somewhat divided as to whom
the proper candidate shall be.
It is reasonably assured that W.
J. Bryan has the lead of all
other candidates so far named.
We haven't the slightest idea
that he can win out. The op
position to him iu his own party
is alone sufficient to defeat liim,
and ho cannot control a sufficient
number of votes of the oppo.
. sition to give him even a fight
ing chance. There lsconsidera
?ble. t a I It about i^>overnor of New
York. We don't believe that lie
M " can win either. He is chiefly
considered seriously because of
the money he can control.
Several others are mentioned
I.MVU1 ?c tuuaiuei" lo D6 impos
sible winners.
There is but one man in our
judgment jn the Democratic
party who might turn the triclc.
He is a man for whom we have
never voted with any degree of
pleasure because we have sel
dom agreed in matters of public
policy, I ut he is the strongest
man in the country today with
the exception of Theodore Roose
velt..
WHAT IS THE MATTER
AVITH G ROVER CLEVE
LAND?
LATIMER FOR RE-ELEC
TION.
Tl>? Sumter Item has tlio fol
lowing to say about Senator
Latimer's position on the immi
gration question.
"Senator Latimer has evident
ly decided to make his campaign
for re election on an anti immi
gration platform. And ho will
win, unless a very strong man,
who combines ability with the
art of rough and ready campaign
is his opponent. There seems
to be a rapidly growing senti
ment against tho immigration
movement. A few months ago
we wero inclined to the opinion
that almost any ordinarily good
man could beat Latimer, but
, now it looks like Latimer against
the tield with the odds ill Lati
liter's favor. This is an opinion,
not a preference."
In the opinion above expressed
we distinctly concur. We may
add also that we have a rather
wiucere regard for Senator Lati
mer personally, and unless an
other than those already an
nouncod as opposing him pre
sents himself who is closer to
us, we expect to cordially sup
* port him uext year. Of course
every lx>dy would like to have
his job, but it is going to take a
very strong siun to wrest it from
liim. That man hasn't shown
up 3 oL On his immigration
Senator Imtimmf la, we
thiak, ininiitly sound. ' la a
forair ius?, we stated our l?i
prM^ioa oi thai .immigration
business. ^ .that issue we ex- 1
pressed the" opinion thai the
whole scheme was a broad-faced
farce, and later results have not
changed that opinion. The de
sirable immigrant will usually
come* to us * anyhow if judicious
advertising is indulged in. This
advertising can be accomplished
at one tenth the cost of the
present system, with the ad
ded benefit of securing a class of
people to our citizenship who
will be au advautage to us, and
not a detriment. In this, view,
we think that we will be upheld
by a majority of our readers.
CLARENCE DARROW.
It will be recalled that Clarence
Darrow was the leading counsel
for the defense hi the case against
Hay ward vs The State of Idaho
for murder. Collier's a so called
National. Weekly took considera
ble ' exception to Mr. Darrow *s
argument in that case, which in
a former issue W3 commeuted
upon and congratulated the State
of Idaho on possessing at least
12 citizens on the proper recog
nition of justice as it should be
recognized.
The particular remarks ac
credited to Mr. Darrow, which
appear to have aroused the ire
of tne periodical referred to
seem to be:
'?Labor Unions are ofteu cruel;
they are often unjust *** I don't
care how many wrongs they
commit ?***I don't care how
many brutalities they are guilty
of. I Know that their cause is
just."
Tfoose that icnow us know that
we do not iudorse these senti
ments. They know further how
ever that we are essentially a
people's man. Anything in the
way of keeping a laboring man
or woman out of their rights, i ?
they are worthy mou and women
meets with our severe disap
proval aud reprelieusion. Ac
cording to our lights, all men
starting out in lire, started Willi
an equal chance. The iact lhat
some have advanced above Iheir
fellows in wealth and education
should not blind them to the fact
that they owe their less fortu
nate brethern a certain duty.
JfrWtVisTances* rise above your
[neighbors in wealth, or influ
ence, you must not thiuk that
that fact relieves you of respon
sibility to those who have not
been similarly favored by for
tune.
We have a supreme disgust
for all those who were engaged
iu the prosecution of Hay ward
as we consider the case one of
the greatest travesties on justice
that this country has ever known.
We hope that the ponding cases
of Moyerand Pettioone will also
result in acquittal if they are
brought to trial on the farcical
charge on which they are ac
cused.

Work Day For The Orphans.
Saturday, September the 28th
has been appointed Work Day
for the Thorn well, Connie Max
well and Epworth Orphanages.
Those institutions have six
hundred orphan children in them,
and they are provided for by
voluntary contributions. They
have just passed through the
summer months, with their finan
cial stringency, and should now
have an increase in the amount
of contributions for their sup
oort.
Tho Work Day plan furnishes
a special opportunity, for thrown
people and children, to give tho
income of one day, or the pro
ceeds of one day's labor to tho
orphans.
The crop prospects are promis
ing, tho prices are good, and
the outlook in the business world
is encouraging. The Lord has
opened his hand, and poured out
his blessiugs upon us. As an
expression of our gratitude for
his goodness, we should make
some return to him. "Inasmuch
*s ye have done it unto one of
tho least of those my brothern,
ye have done it unto me," Cash,
groceries Mid dry goods will all
be acceptable.

Supt. F.pworth Orphanags.

Logoff, S. C.
)Cr. Editor: If I mistake not
tono time ago 1 noticed in your
jditorial where jtoe ttU you wir
in * class to jpoorself. Aa you
made no explanation I presumed*
the meaning waa that you did not
drag your feet on both sides of
the fence at the same time, which
is customary now aduys, but
stood flatfooted as it were on
one side only. On every issue
of the day, you are always
easy to tind but hard to move.
You know we live in an age of
on the feuce. Politics on the
feuce. Religion on the fence.
Morality neither cold nor hot.
This was the Laodicean sin of
old which figuratively made God
sick for He said, "they are
jneillier cold or hot. I will spew
them out of my mouth." And
as we are told that He is no*,
mocked, the same is a reality to
day, and four-fifths of the human
family are inoculated with this
sin. Woe unto the fence strad
ler. \*ei aowu on one siae or
the other and make yourself at
homo. God is not raovlced. As
I have drifted somewhat from
my subject I will revert.
I wish to say however, if you
will look away down at the foot
ol your class you will sec another
infinitesimal creature in the
same class and on the same side,
and such being the case I feel
justifiable in giving1 you a little
news from our village, as the
half has never yet been told
Ex uno discc omnes.
Mrs. Mary Burdell is arrange
ing to build a six-room cottage
ou her lot at Lugoff. When com
pleted it will be occupied by the
Rev. W. R. Reasonover, one of
our popular mail carriers. We
are proud of the privilege th re
port that we liavo two of the
prettiest, proudest, politest and
puhctualists postmen that Uncle
Sam ever had cxamiued and sent
out on route from any city, much
less a village like ours. As a
proof of their popularity agree
able with this statement, they
are presented with fruits, vege
tables, butter- milk aud oth3r
good things too numerous to
mention, by the good ladies
along their routes.
The S. A. L. has been a bless
ing to us in the lost territory, as
it was formerly called. With
two rural routes carrying the
mail, the news of the day in
different directions, is one of the
have done for the people, It
should be more appreciated.
Take mdre papers, write more
letters, encourage your neigh
bor to do the same. God helps
those who help themselves.
So will Uncle Sam. I think we
are indebted to the Hon. D. E.
Finloy for' his untiring efforts
in getting up these rural routes.
I presume returning him to
Congress will satisfy him. If he
presents himself again we will
try.
ii any 01 tue readers of The
People, which are many, ever
expect to visit Lugoff aud want
to be properly entertained, I
would advise them to bring a
few cottou-seed with them, or if
you let the agents !:now you
have somo at home imd will
bring them in soon, they will be
your shepherds and you will not
want while there.
The health of our community
is very good, The farmers all
have fairly good crops and are
just as busy as they can be
gathering the tleecy staple which
at preseut is bringing a fancy
price. How long it will con
tinue is a question.

The White House Plate.
?The tact that tho White House
is equipped witu a sorvico of
solid pold plate for use on state
occasions is not talked about too
loudly, as it seeins, somehow, to
jar on democratic simplicity.
But tho fact that the service is
there is recalled by the fact that
it needs refurbishing, and jewel
ers from New York, Baltimore,
and Philadelphia are bidding for
the work. The plate was bought
during the Van Bnren adminis
tration. It is made up of four
large candelabra, five fruit
dishes, and eight table mirrors
which are so fashioned that they
can be formed into one largo
center pipce. It is claimed that
this service of plate is ono of the
handsomest in the world, and
impresses even those diplomats
who have seen tho plate of the
wealthiest European courts. The
value of the White House plate
is not generally known. ? Wash

Why Fathers and Sons
Should Be Friends.
It is a pretty hard thing for a
boy or a young man to realize
that his father is his best frieud,
remarks John Anderson Jayue,
in the Philadelphia Bulletin.
51?r?oo5o 1 1 ?? ?<?* fci'llft. RiLVS Ml*.
ayne, if the young mau knows
that his fathep has wasted his
life. And yet it is a good thing
for boys and young men to re
member that, even with all the
misunderstandings and fuults the
father has, there is that in him
that makes him love his boy and
want him to go in the right path.
Why must it be that not until
the years of manhood have come
does a boy realize what his father
is to him? Why must he have
to wait until the father is sleep
ing his last sleep, waiting the
angel's trump, befor? he feels
that he would like to shake his
father by the hand? Yet, too
often this is the ease. Too oftou
sons and fathers are estranged
from each other, when by the
tie of blood that binds them,
they should be the best of
friends ? the father a guardian
to the son, the son to the father.
Ouly occasionally do fathers and
sons have that patient mutual
love and forbearance one for tho
other that they should have.
Who fault is it?
He Knew Only One.
A teacher had been telling her
class of boys that worms had
become so numerous that they
aost-royetl tlie crops and it was
necessary to import the English
sparrow to exterminate tliem.
The sparrows multiplied very
fast and were driving away our
native birds.
Johnny was apparently inat
tentive, and the teacher, think
ing to catch him napping, said:
"Johnny, which is worse, to
have, worms or sparrows?"
