A correspondent i r ' the Columbia
State, discussing the possibility of
Charlotte entering the South Atlantic
League, says Charlotte is not in a
class with the other cities in the
league* Wonder what the enthusias
tic Charlotte citizen will think of
this? We admire both Charlotte and
Columbia, but we never dreamed that
the Palmetto capitol was so far ahead
of the seat of American independence.

Governor-elect Ansel has anoointed
a newspaper man. Mr. A. J. Bethea, of
Darlington, his private secretary.
This makes the third newspaper man
who has been selected to serve in that
capacity in succession—Messrs Aull
and Norment being the other two. The
new governor has started out right
and while he mav be accused ''f being
dominated by the newspapers before
his time expires, still there is good
rea • to believe that the domination
will be along right lines.
