Mr. Fisk." begun the lawyer who conducted the croas examination, "ls it not a fad that you harbor a female who goes by Hie name of Mrs. Fisk?" "Ves, slr." Do you not support lier?" " I do, Kir."" Is she your legal wife?" "No. slr Jurors scowled ed. "Von will admit that al though you have never been mar ried to her, she lives with you?" "Yes, slr. "that ls all, you may s'tep down." The legal light then looked victoriously ai Hie Jury. "One moment. M.'. risk, said tho opposing lawyer. "What relation exists between you and tho lady referred to?" She is my grand mother." Just so it is with Hie traducer on the stump. Accept his oily, smooth story, and you will believe all sorts of harm of his opponent. Hut before arriving at conclusions, it might be bettor to have a little cross examina tion and ascertain where there ls ntl truth in the scandal. Much or this kind or stuff is like tho old school reader story of tho "throe black crows." HIN NA .UK FORTH K WAK Nearly every newspaper seems to have a different designation for tho j groat war of IS61-6R. For our purl ?ve prefer to call lt "Tho War of So I cession." as that is definite, short, ex pressive and oorrellatod with Hie War of the Revolution. In discussing this mutter with a friend recently, ho told the following story : "A very ancient negro was trying to lix a date and said a certain thing had happened "ton yean* bofo' de war." "What war. uncle, tho Revolution?" "No, sir.Hie Spanish-Amrlcan?" "No. slr. no." "The Mexican?" "No. hoar, you know what war I mean, 'taint nono or dem. I-mean when de while rolks flt do Yankees." "GOVERNOR OP ALL" On March 26. 1877, Governor Hamp-, ton wrote to President Rutherford B. Hayes: "I give thc assurance that no discrimination shall be made In the administration ot justice and that alt citizens of both parties and both races shall be regarded and fully pro tected by timi amendable to the laws." We commend this splendid senti ment to candidates for governor now campaigning over thc state. Some have expressed bitter class pre judices, but in thc event any such should be elected, we trust that he will take for hit guide ' the words of the splendid old South Carolinian.

Radical changes In the curriculum of high schools were advocated hy speakers ai the department of manual training ami art education. President Arthur L. Williston. principal of Wentworth Institute, Boston, Mass., advocated, anning oilier tilings, the omission of instruction in foreign lan guages. Speaking before the kindergarten I seel ion, I?. I?. Claxton. United States! commissioner of education, sounded a warning to mothers who restrain their children from playing with oilier children, particularly those whom they term "bad." He advocated "Hie great big ont of doors" as the most wonderful kindergarten in existence. Tile election of Dr. David Starr .Ionian, of Leland Stanford University, to the presideuoy of the National Kdu I at ion Association was assn red to night when Ur. David ll. Johnson, of Hock Hill, withdrew from the contest. Ur. Johnson's action followed a long conference of his supporters, who claimed a majority of the votes of the nominating committee. The election will lake place Thursday. Announcing lils withdrawal Dr. j Johnson said he was convinced that the best Interests of the X. H. A. would ' be promoted by the election of Dr. Jordan as president of the asosclation. He asked lils friends lo join in "mak ing Hie nomination of Dr. Jordan una nimous." To bring the teaching profession from "below the bread line" in the matter of salary, there must be wom an suffrage, according to Miss Mar garet Haley. ?>i Chicago, who spoke tonight on salaries. Miiilmunr Wage commissions never investigated the wages of teachers be cause they do not class touchers^as working women, and teachers "them selves do not wish to be classed ns working women, she said. Miss Grace C. Strachan, of Brook lyn, PC. V., declared there was no log ical reason why women teachers should receive smaller salaries than men. Commlsloner H. P. Claxton promis ed co-operation of the board of edu cation lu obtaining increased salaries for teachers of America. Pp to Mr. Lomax. Newberry- Herald and News. For blatant niisrepreaentitioi.' an article published in The Anderson Intelligencer of recent date signed J, C. Lomax there is nothing that we have seen yet that heats it. He de slip's space lo "warn the- people that our friend Dominick is up to some smart political tricks in belia*! of Blease. He is telling M arnund I hal Mr. Blouse says he ls ". afra'd .?I Smith beating him, but Jennings is the man he is afraid of." and then ..oes on to say that lt is a sebee;.-? to pet another lawyer In the *eooirl raen with Blease. Now as n nidi 1er of fact Mr. Lomax never i 'it ; II;* MIC H.?ur;, and if he did we v/o'lli be glad lor h'm to produce the % lin n w.:t bean! Dominick make any Mien remarks. Mr. Dominick may have said that he was not ai raid of Smith heating Iliense, hut he never said it in any such connection as Mr. Lomax puts it. Neither is Mr. Dominick afraid nf Jennings beating Blease, or' any one else. Tlie opposition to Rieuse is more desperate than lt has ever been. Then Mr. Lomax goes on to s-iy that Mr. Dominick's race for congress ls only a joke, that he has no Idea of beating Aiken and is only runnlm. lo help Blease. Mr. Aiken does not con sider Mr. Dominick a joke, we guar antee you that. Mr. Dominick is .-. friend of Mr. Blease. as every ene knows who is familiar with politics, but lie js in the running for congress and the opposition will have to find somehtlng else than the misrepresen tations of Mr. Lomax. The people .viii not hp fooled. It is a pity we cannot have fair and honest discussion o' men and things when we go into an election and that men will resort to all sorts of misrepresentations t.) try to help or injure, as the case may be. Mr. Lomax better try anof'cr sc heme. This one won't work Mr. Aiken will lind out sooner tha.i he cares no doubt whether the opposition to him this year is a joke. New DreudnnughK Washington.

MEXICANS REVOLT FEDERALS ON JOB General Functors Notifed, But No Unusual Activity Has Been Reported (My Associated Press) Vera Cruz, Mex.. July 7. Brigadta.'

Cuffed Ky Th cut ricul Manager, j (Hy A SHOO lu ted PreSB) Berlin, July 7. An astonishing commentary upon the conditions in tlie German theatrical world. IIUB been tarnished by u libel suit ut Munich. Ernst Schrumpf, director of the Munich Folk's Theatre, brought action against the publisher of a magazine devoted to stage affairs who had ac cused Schrumpf of mistreatment of his employees. The testimony at Jhe trial dis?dosed conditions which moved the presiding ujdge to ?bulare that "we have experienced a great deal in this courtroom, but never before such testimony as this process has brought to light. Vite poorest workingmen are better off titan these actors. Workingmen would not endure such treatment." Uncontradicted testimony showed that Schrumpf was accustomed to strike and kick actors and lash them with a whip; that actresses were en gag?'d at a salary of $11 to $22 f>0 monthly and required to furnish their own wardrobes, although the theatre waa extremely profitable and Schrupf had become rich through its manage ment ; that the director had declared In the presence of the whole com pany that "it was a pity that we are not in Kassia, so I could wulk into you with a knout." that he had struck a woman prompter in the face with a bunch <?f keys-(German keys are so heavy that a bunch of them is ahn os t a deadly weapon.) The. testimony concerning the plaintiff's coiiddct to*-' ward the women of his eompnay was of such a nature that the public was excluded from the courtroom while it wa j being given. The publisher of the offending ar ticle waB acquitted and the entire costs were placed upon Schrumpf. He will also lose his concession as thea tre manager. The abused actors declared that they submitted to such treatment be cause thej we:e, un?ler prevailing conditions in their profession, helpless to resist. Moreover, they said, there was no feeling of solidarity among actors which would make resistance effective. It was a question of bare existence with them, ami they bore ills they had, rather than flee to others which might be worse Contables ut Campaign Meetings. Orangeburg Times and Democrat. When the senatorial campaign met in Orangeburg there were many who remarked upon the presence of con stables from surrounding counties, and we heard one man say that he knew at least seven that were in the city. A conservative estimate would place the total number at twelve to twenty, and as these men are in the employ of taxpayers In the counties from which they came there ls natur ally some desire to know why they were at the meeting. At St. Matthews the first day were constables, armed officers of thc law, who were being patd by the month, whether they were at campaign meetings or hunting blind tigers. It seems that the constables have been in attendance upon meetings all over the state, so much so, in fact, that Mr. Pollock, a candidate for the senate, announced that the presence of armed appointees of the governor would not deter him from exposing his*; record, and he proceeded to expose it We wonder why are those Ulcers s prominent at every meeting. Do they! go as a guard for the governor against I possible violence or merely as cheer leaders In an effort to whoop up some j enthusiasm? If the former, there is no need of them, and the taxpayers are being taxed for an unnecessary personal escort, suitable to a monar chy. If for the latter, the taxpayers are paying for political workers, and they are neglecting their duties. Winthrop College.
