He will be treated as a cltizenfitaas a gentleman, as be is. If he gets t*3^ best of the argument, we will bow gracefully, for we esteem him to be an honorable man. Our "attack was merely an appeal to this candidate and a number of other citizens of Anderson who really have- been misted into believing just as he does. We observe that the pub lication referred to in our opening sentence did not try to answer our arguments, stated in the politest and fairest way possible. We laid down certain propositions. We invite contradiction. Wo stated that Anderson bas a fair contract for public utilities. We stated that what this town needs now ls not a post mortem over things that have gone before, for wc certainly hope all will be threshed out in the courts and the public put ia posses sion of all facts, and that matter end ed. The local afternoon publication has not endeavored to answer any o? thoa* arguments. Why not! We leave a fair and nnprejndiced public to study this natter calmly. Vor the second time that publica tion, finding itself unable to answer the arguments presented In this pa per has resorted to mudslinging. We will in patince and for the last time pass that by. We can suffer the slings of Injustice and will do so willingly if we do any little thing to convince the people of Anderson of the diffefrence between calm, honest Judgment and petty spite. We repeat it. For the last time we will refuse to be diverted from our desire to defend gentlemen ot honor In our community who have had veil ed poisoned attacks made upon them (rom some source or other. If we must stop for a moment to defend ourselves from the tongue of bander, lt will be a proper defense, and one itatement will be enough. TIliUBAa'S BUUtlfiSUVn The interview from Senator Tillr nan. ls very Interesting, especially as ie says tba* he is the author of the jonstUutlon and by-laws of the party.

We know that Senator Tillman tas long wished to reform the rules of ?arty. It seems to us that the suggestion ie offers is common sense, although he machinery may be just a little blt iurabersome. We do not see how the >?rty CUN *et around makin; now dub rolls anyway, as this should be j lone every two years, or the old onos carefully revised, but as to the number it copies that are to bo made, that uay be too great a tax upon the club ifflcers, and the party hasn't much' unds. Aa td printing ot the names on the dub rolls, we don't see why the news papers of the state should be willing I o do that gratis. We know that this taper would print the names ot all thc .nb rolls If the party wished lt. and here would be more In thia county ban In some others. WK NIED A HIGHWAY Anderson should, ought and m UL t i ;ot lu closer touch with Clemson Col ego A highway from thia city toi Clemson would bring in a vaat amount | if retail trade. The people ot Clem- j on. and lt la quite a community. ?onld like to' come to Anderson, but he i nil road facilities to Greenville ire so much better and the highways o Anderson are so much worse that Seneca and Greenville get much that s rightfully Anderson's. Wc appeal; to the business mea of Anderson to get together on som? kind >f- proposition to pick one good route o Ciemson and of fere some kind cf to ne <: monta to the county to co-operate c building it.

'his <-ity iiuH made public tlve first of a serie? of reports from W. W. Rockhill, former Culled States minister to China, and more recently ambassador tn Russia, later to Tur key, on the situation in Mongolia. In behalf of the Asiatic Institution Mr. Rockhill recently penetrated the re gions where once powerful Mongol races have been trying to maintain its independence from the Republic of China. The lust limits and boundaries of ?tills race, which seven centuries ago conquered nearly the whole of Asia, \nnd part of Europe, have begun to sappear. says Mr. Rockhill, in the ucl bl? formed by Japan and ellina the one side and Russia on the oth The naive, gullible descendants Mongol conquerers are no match r"\lie canny Chinese trader from VhV-wjuth and the imperially escorted Russian manufacturer from the North h?\hl* undermined and tr?nsforn ? country's relations ann una it ?1 thousand rather s the existing remnant ot iee." be says.

Here ls all left of perhaps the most wot empire of all time, that erect horseback by Ghenghln Khan.

Aa such, if it succeeds, he says, lt will be a "damp course" between the powder ..- t........ -j;.*! china "Except for the use of things that are brought them by the Chinese, with out whom they would go unclad and half starved, the Mongols remain aa originally known to us In the middle of the thirteenth century," he adds. *r Outers Mongol's asset with which to begin modern statehood are small. lit has one gold mine to tax and its chief trade if through Russian Kia chta cn the northern boundary, where exports in 1911 were valued at $2.500* 000, Imports from Russia at $615,000 and from China $1,485,000 The only other trade' mentioned is that of $l,-j 000,000 through the Kodbo in the weat' This' ia the Mongol Empire's* status in the scale ot the moderns. ' TRUST THE WHITE HAS Is the Advice sf Bester Wasfclsgtsa to the Negroes. Atlanta, May 16.-"Have faith in the white man, he is your friend." Booker T. Washington, the negro educator offered this advice to bis race in the course ot an address here9 before the annual negro christian studeuts' conference. He declared that notable progress , in better co operation between the negro and the white races bad been made in the last decade. ' "By right living, obeping the layWa and showing due deferonce to every white man, you will demonstrate to the world what education mokes out of the negroes who obtain it," aaid Washington, "and in this way you will show the white man more vividly than in any other way the need of educa more widely than at present." Tho meting ia being held under the direction of John Mott, associate gen eral secretary of the Young Men's Chriatian Association. CONVICT-MADE GOOPS Caused Quite a Little Debate Ja the United States genajte. Washington, May 16.-After . warm I debate between opponents and advo-1 catos of the bill to prohibit tnporta tion ot foreign convict made goods, the senate today by a vote of 43 to 17, laid on the table a motion to chango the reference of the measure from the manufacturers to the finance com mittee. Senator EStone, author of the state] measure, wanted a similar ' bill from | ?j?? tottan in reference to the wiann factures committee.

Capt. man, V. 3. M., who ts slated to superintendent of operation. It.has been found that from night *o ? or 8 o'clock In ibu .Bor; heavy mists and fogs hang in the ct which even without the menace of fe will be one of the most difficult parts [er the canal for the pilots. ? ?Captain Rodman has recently made a number of trips through the cuts durlijg these hours. He says that ucarty always thc mist was BO tteavy that, even bis small launch had to slow down and feel tts way. His'eV j placation ot the fog is the difference between the temperature of the Char-, gres river as it Hows out through the cut and the surrounding atmosphere, causing heavy condensation during the late night hours. Canal operations will start with riot more .than eight pilots on the payroll, according to Capt Rodman, who has been besieged with applications for; pilot, Jobs. There seems to have been a : general belief that sixty or more pilots would be engaged upon thc op? enlng of,the new gateway of oceans, but Capt. Rodman declares that six or eight pilota will answer all pur poses for some time, and if there is not enough work for that many pilots the men ..will be kept bu ny on some other kind of work.
