DESERTS GOVERNOR Weekly Paper, Owned by iiim, Comes out with un Authorized Statement to the Effect that Grace Is no Long er a "Mease Man." "Common Sense", a weekly paper published In Charleston and owned by Mayor John P. Grace, came out with a lengthy statement in Its Saturday's Issue criticising severely the action of the state convention in unseating his delegation from Charleston. Toward the latter part of the article, the fol lowing appeared: "Up to this time, although Mr. Grace's Intimate friends have known that he has had no Intention whatever of supporting Governor Bleaso In the coming election, he has for good and sufficient reasons not seen fit to make any public virtue of that fact. He has been sincere In this attitude, not be cause he has ever had, or ever could have any honest admiration for Gover nor Blease; but because as bad as Blease Is, ho haB nevertheless granted to Charleston, a degree of local freedom which she has not enjoyed for many years. The only thing which has made Grace utterly shrink from a proper appreciation of this great boon to his constituency Is his knowledge that It Is a freedom purchased for money and his sincere conviction that at least a portion of such miserable money goes to Columbia. The man who takes It there was a delegate of the Barn well delegation. What do the good people of Charleston think of that anomaly? There are situations in Which a public man is sometimes placed where his conscience weighs very heavily against expediency for his constituency; in other words, when he suffers things to exist and men to prosper, not for his own sake, but for the sake of those whose destinies he [ feels he Is called upon to direct. We know that this has been Mr. Grace's I feeliii!; towards the political and im moral moss which has existed in ' Charleston for a long time. He lias I hoped that he would get assurances I from the Jones people that they would I tolerate certain local freedom in Char I leston, without being paid for such I toleration lacking which he has alone refrained from throwing whatever ln ' fluence he might have in favor of I Judge Jones. Such assurances have not I been forthcoming. If he were little I enough to be governed in any nu'ter I by mere personal resentment, th< ac . tlon of the Jones steam-roller would be enough to make him wait no long ' er; but, however bitter and dlstaste ' ful It might be, he would turn again I to Blease. Such however Is impossl | ble. He still hopes that Judge Jones, i and his leaders, in thai broad spirit of toleration which he well knows has once again taken possession of South Carolina with reference to Charleston, Will see fit to regard the peculiar con ditions in Charleston and promise re lief therefrom. The long and short of It is, that we arc authorized by Mr. Grace now and for the llrst time pub licly to declare that he is not a Blease man. But whether or not he can take any part for Judge Jones still remains to bo seen. Mr. Grace has earnestly hoped to bring to Charles ton honest, legal relief, from a n.ost deplorably lawless situation, and he has been frank enough to avow such sentiments openly In Columbia, In the halls of legislation. He does not wish to profit through the political jugglery of a moral question, as have for so many years those who now hold polit ical power through a widespread pros titution of law. Have the people of Charleston forgotten through whom it was that all our troubles began? O temporal O mores!" DELICATE CHILDREN Made Strong by Vinol "I wish I could induce every moth> er who has a delicate, alckly child, to try your delicious cod llvor Iron tonic, Vlnol. "It restored our littlo daughter to health and strength aftor everything else had failed. It tastes so good sho loved to take It?not a bit of cod liver oil tasto.?Mrs. C. W. Stump, Canton, Ohio." The reason Vlnol is so successful In building up puny, delicate, ailing childron, is because It is a comblna [ tlon of the tv/o most world-famed ton ics?the medicinal body-building ele ments of cod liver oil, aided by the blood-making and strength-creating properties of tonic iron. If we can Induce you to try a bottle of Vlnol as a body-builder and strength-creator for your child, and you do not find it Is all we claim, we will return your money on demand. LAUKENS 1>B(JG CO.
