Still Old Fashioned.
We are still old fashioned enough to
believe in the apparently out-moded
American principle that every man
has a right to work and should be
protected in that right by the govern-
roent. And—
We are still old fashioned enough
to believe that no man nor group of
men has any right to seize and hold
the property of an individual or a cor
poration without due process of law.
To voice such old fashioned beliefs
in principles upon which this Ameri
can nation was founded may be trea
son, but “if it be treason, then make
the most of it.”
Criminal Negligence.
In a recent automobile accident in
which several persons were seriously
hurt, the driver of the car that was
responsible for the collision is said to
have admitted that his vehicle had
faolty brakes but that he “wasn’t
dkrving over 35 or 40 miles an hour**
when he attempted to pass two or
three other machines and crashed
head-on into an automobile going in
the opposite direction.
If a railroad company operated its
trams with faulty brakes and an ecei-
d*eit resulted, the com plaints in suita
for damages would allege -criminal
and juries would return
verdicts aga nst the de-
fewdant However, owners of cars

Mayor Maybank, of Charleston,
spoke to the Convention and endorsed
its effort to raise the standard of liv
ing of a^l people.
The newspapers carried statements
from several men prominent in pub
lic life who are expected to be candi

ston and Senator Smith are quoted
extensively in Sunday’s papers, both
being candidates for the United States
Senate, Mr. Adams, Mr. Manning and
Mr. Maybank came before us in advo
cacy of various things. These gen
tlemen are expected to be in the race
for Governor. Mr. Manning appeal
ed to the authorities in Washington to
give consideration to the farmers in
Suir|ter County who suffered from
hail, Mr. Adams challenged the High
way Department on its pay scale and
Mr. Maybank addressed (the State
Convention of Labor. By the way,

Seised Liquor Used

8a ya C onstable
Columbia, July 2.—A now use for
a famed South Carolina product waa
advertised Thursday by a State con
stable testifying in the county court
here. (
The State constabulary, says the
constable, uses seized corn liquor as
an anti-freeze in radiators of automo
biles used by members of the force.
Thus he accounted for the liquor
smell in and around an automobile
belonging to the State, a car which he
was driving the night after last Christ
mas when it was in collision with an
other car.
ThfH and a pint of corn liquor which
he had purchased as evidtence to be
used in the Lexington court against
a liquor law violator, he said. And
upon that purchase hangs another
piece of news.
There is a small fund which State
constables may use to employ per
sons to purchase liquor from boot
leggers in order to establish cases
against these illegal venders, he point
ed out. And, he said, it is easier for
women to make purchases, frequently,
than for men to buy.
Thus he accounted for two women
who were in the car with him at the
time of the collision. He had taken
them along, he said, to buy liquor to
catch the bootleggers. He himself,
however, he testified, had made this
particular purchase

“The restoration of our foreign

law,” the senator concluded, “and
the proper financing of our agricul
tural operations, so as to maintain
the self-respect and independence of

Senator Smith has not been a “me-
too’ or “yes-man.” He has clung to
his own ideas and has opposed much
of the prevailing New Deal philoso
phy. The old soldier of Democracy
still goes forth in the panoply of war
and he will wage his campaign with
