Ncjjro Summer Scliool Clo*iii?r.
Mr. ICditor.? Having boon asked
by the teachers of our Summer
school to make a report through your
paper in regards to our Summer
school work, I kindly ask that you
allow mo space in your widely read
journal to speak of the same.
Promptly at 1) o'clock on Monday
morning, the 8th of June, the Summer
school for the colored teacncrs
of Horry county was begun with
Prof. O. L. Lovallie, B. S, principal
of the Whittamoro (1 raded school
of Conway, as our instructor. The
work was begun with very Mattering
indications, and there was an
unusual interest manifested on the
part of the teachers which lusted
until t lie end.
Arithmetic, algebra, and grammcr
were the studies taken up. The
vision of Sir Launfal and Knoch
A rden were also read and discussed
with great interest. At the calling
of the roll each morning the teachers
responded with unotations. Cur
rent literature was also one of the
prime features of our institute, and
Prof. Lcvullio spared no pains in
laying great stress upon the same,
and many of the teachers have decided
to read more than they have
heretofore been doing.
All the teachers expressed themselves
as bavin# boon much benefit
ed by attend in# the Summer
school. During our sessions, we
were favored with a very fine and
eloquent address by our County
Superintendent of Education, Mr.
Prince, which was much enjoyed by
those who heard him. Mr. Prince
is well fitted for his position, and
for a talk to teachers lie' feels at
home. In short, our institute was
a success and Prof. Lovallie's talks
- 'from time to time were always very
timely.
The session closed on the 110th of
June with the following program
executed on that night.

HEED OKOUNTRY,
Triumph of Democratic Principles
Is Imperative.
THE MAN AND THE HOUR.
With tho Nomination of John A. Johnson,
Progressive Democrat of Integrity,
Ability and Achievement, Success
Is Assured.
Wearied of twelve years of overwhelming
defeat In national elections,
during which time the party has lost
national political control of every
northern state and has witnessed devastating
Inroads even on the southern
states, hundreds of thousands of Democratic
voters have In the lust few
months asked, "Who Is the man who
can load the party to victory?"
The best of armies, military or political,
require some measure of success
to maintain their spirit and cfllclcncy.
Continuous and overwhelming defeat
oven In the worthiest of causes disheartens
the strongest men.
Conditions arc such In this year IPOS
that a united Democracy supporting a
strong presidential nominee can win
the presidential oflleo and open the
way for a return of tho Democratic
party to power. Not only do the hest
interests of tho Democratic party call
for a victory this year, but so also do
Hw? l.nul tli.. W? 11...? M' 1..
i >7v?h mivi vmn wi illv i ill I lull, ? l?l \ V
years of almost unopposed government
of the republic by one party and Cor
eight of those years practically by one
man have brought about conditions
that are repugnant to the elllclent and
satisfactory administration of a government
supposedly of the people.
Principle With Victory.
Victory can bo achieved this year
without sacrificing one lota of flu;
stand for principle that has boot) made
with so much sacrifice by the Democratic
party of the United States for
the last dozen years, it Is merely a ,
question of changing leadership. Three
times in succession our party has go no 1
to defeat because Its leadership has
not been able to Inspire confidence In i
the masses of fho voters, patriotic,
progressive and sincere as that leadership
has unquestionably been. The
party Is greater than Its Individual
membership and greater than Its leaders.
The time has come when It should
name its leader in a presidential campaign
and no longer permit itself to be
defeated by a sentimental, though liorolc,
devotion to a great name that has
dominated It for a dozen years.
If in the ranks of the party there is
a man whose principles, whoso party
fealty, whoso success in political battles,
whoso actual achievements In
legislation and statesmanship?and a
man holding a commanding political
situation?are such that victory under
his leadership is indicated, Is it not
the duty of reasonable, thoughtful, dovoted
Democrats desiring the success
of their party to turn to him?
Johnson the Man.
Tho friends of Governor John A.
Johnson of Minnesota, who have
watched Ids remarkable career la recent
years, as well as Impartial observers
and journalists throughout tho
country, believe that he Is the man of
the hour, tho man In every way equipped
to make a successful campaign
and afterward to be a chief executive
of the highest order. Let us brlelly review
his career.
John A. Johnson was born in Rt.
rotor, Nicollet county, Minn., July 2ft,
18(51, of Swedish parents. Ills childhood
and youth were passed In great
poverty. At thirteen years of ago ho
was compelled to leave the public
schools of his native city In order to
support himself and the parental family.
Though Ids formal education was
thus early cut short, Ids self education
never stopped. A student at all times,
a wide reader and a thoughtful one,
Mr. Johnson, after some years of obscure
toil as a drug and grocery clerk
and railway timekeeper, became at tho
age of twenty-four editor of the Rt. Peter
Herald. He soon became known
as one of the ablest of Minnesota journalists
and was recognized as one of
the leaders of journalism in a stato romarkablo
for the number, vigor and Influence
of Its periodical press. As a
country editor ho was gradually drawn
Into politics and In 1808 was elected
a member of the senate of tho Minnesota
legislature, and his first public political
work was as a member of that
body. Prom the first he was identified
with various reform measures which
have Since become law In Minnesota.
Wherever Governor Johnson has
gone he has Impressed men as being a
man of tho Lincoln typo. IIo has tho
faculty of making many friends and
few enemies.
Qovcrnor Johnson's Legislative Results
The governor recommended a per- i
manent tax commission. The legislature
gave It to him, and tho Ink was
tinrdly dry on tho document before ho i
ippointed n commission so slrong In
Its personnel that the Republican sen- <
Ue resolved by a rising vote to conlrm
the appointments without delay, i
while tlie equally Republican house,
hough without the power of conftrina- i
Ion, expressed by a rising vote Its ap- l
evolution of the excellence of the gov- <
>rnor's appointments. i
In northern Minnesota nro tho great- I
?st Iron ore fields In tho world. Tho 1
itato of Minnesota owns oxtenslvo I
irons of these lands. Ry leases they 1
vorc largely In tho hands of tho Unit- i
?d States Steel corporation, and the 1
itato was receiving only an Inslgnlfl- i
ant lncomo from Its royalties. The t
covernor advised tho withdrawal of y
ill such lands from mineral lenses, and y
ho legislature concnrrod. i
Minnesota has enjoyed but scant In- f
f
I
come from tho wealth of tho privately
owned lion mines. Tho governor recommended
ft royalty tax on tho output
of these mines. Ilo dhl not got it. Imt
tho United States Steel corporation
hound itself ns a substitute to establish
a $20,000,000 stool plant at Puluth.
Tho newly created tax commission,
together with the state board of equalization.
which precoiled it (the members
of which were appointed by Governor
Johnson), have in the four years
of CJovernor Johnson's administration
Increased tho assessed valuation of the
steel corporation's iron ore holdings In
Minnesota from $32,000,000 to $100,000,000.
Tho sleeping car companies of Minnesota
had never paid taxes In Minnesota
in proportion to their earnings.
Tho governor recommended a change
In tho system of taxing those companies,
and a satisfactory law was en
acted. Similarly a rational law as to
mortgage taxation was enacted.
Railway Regulation.
Taking up freight rates, Governor
Johnson In a powerful Rpooch so exhaustively
and conclusively bared existing
unequal and exorbitant rates
that tho railway companies voluntarily
made a reduction of 10 per cent on
grain rates on their lines in northern
Minnesota. Ily order yt tho railway
commission, re-enforced by subsequent
legislation, this voluntary reduction
was followed by a horizontal reduction
in maximum freight rates of about
13 per cent, and there was created ft
now class of merchandise tariff in
which the rates wore reduced about 'JO
per cent. The railways took these reductions
into the United States courts
by enjoining tho attorney general of
Minnesota from enforcing the law.
Tills action lias opened up some of the
most Important litigation involving
constitutional interpretation that has
come before the supremo court in this
generation.
The Two Cent Law.
The enactment of the two cent passenger
tariff law was an example of
Governor .Johnson's celerity of action.
Invited to address the Minnesota Editorial
association, instead of making
the usual platitudinous address on such
i^cnslous, "he exploded the two cent
ilxnnb" and urged that an end be put to
the giving of passes. IIo talkod on
the same subject to a convention of
commercial travelers. Immediately the
state was allaino with this innovation
in railway legislation. When the legislature
met he naked for a law embody*
ing this idea, and the legislature quickly
responded. Nclghliorlng states followed
with reductions, and now
throughout tlie middlu northwest the
two cent rate prevails.
About the time Governor Johnson
camo Into otllco there was a widespread
agitation for reciprocal demurrage
laws which would compel railways
to allow shippers demurrage
charges for failure to deliver cars on
time. Governor Johnson, ever abreast
of popular progress, recommended such
n In ur niwl I*
Thanks to Ills Initiative, the orders
of the Minnesota railroad and warehouse
commission are now Immediately
effective pending appeal.
In Defense of Labor.
Governor Johnson, In consonance
with his thorough democracy and believing
In equal rights, has not been
neglectful of the Interests of labor. lie
desired a free state employment bureau
designed to eliminate the many
abuses that have marked private employment
bureaus In the great labor
centers of Minnesota. Such a bureau
was created and has lieon thoroughly
helpful and widely oOlelent.
Slnco time immemorial that relic of
feudalism, tho common law doctrine of
nonliability of employer to employee
for Injuries occurring through the negligence
of a fellow servant, has prevailed
In Minnesota as well as In many
other stales. "Thin undent rule of tho
common law," said Governor Johnson,
"coupled with the other rule generally
referred to as the doctrine of the assumption
of risk by employees, has
cast upon the Individual laborer a risk
and responsibility out of proportion to
tho wages he receives."
During his term of oflloo Governor
Johnson lias had to deal with one
great conlllct between labor and capital?namely,
tho strike of tho miners
011 tho Minnesota Iron ranges, lly direct
personal Intervention, by advice
to tho employers on the ono hand and
tho strikers 011 tho other, the governor
succeeded, without the use of state
troops, In preventing violence and
bloodshed.
In the forests and prairies of northern
Minnesota are great extents of
fortilo lands which, owing to lack of
drainage, have not Ixjon available for
cultivation. Thanks to Governor Johnson,
additional legislation on this subject
was secured, and hundreds of
thousands of acres of fertllo land will
be added to the rolls of tho state's
wealth.
Governor Johnson bollovows I11 the
inimfpliinl mvnni*oliln nfimi....
r?iul, following his suggestion, n modified
form of tho Illinois Mueller Inw
was adopted by the Minnesota legislature.
Under Its provisions a municipality
may bond Its street railways or
Dther public utilities to pay tho cost of
the purchaso and operation of tho
same.
Minnesota, a leading agricultural
date, has long had to contend with
tho cordage trust, which has a practical
monopoly of tho binding twine
ised in harvesting. For many years
tho state has had a twine plant in
which prison labor was employed. Tho
trust erected a factory In Minnesota
;o competo with tho state innde twine,
tnd Governor Johnson's answer was,
with tho consent of tho legislature,
luthorlzatlon for tho state twino plant
:o sell its product outside as well as
wltldn the state. Tho cordage trust
will now hnvo to light the cheap Mlnlesota
stato mndo twino in other states
is well ns nt homo.
