Disorders incident to the Charlotte strike are to be coideineid. The stri king vaImien have a right. to quit ltheir jobs if they .want to and to walk out in a body, if they desire to go that far, but, they have no right to pre vent others from taking their places if any catn be foundl to fill them. 'Ey Cry timan has a right to work when he call get. eiiployment. 0* * The ioveieli t begun by the young latdies workilng in the storei and of lices to provide a rest rooii for i them selves and shoppers in the city is to be ('omt mendled and slim 1(d receive hearty support. The town has long needed such a place. Its advantages should not ie considered only from Ile standpoint of trade that it might draw, but also from the standpoint of Conveniences it will provide for ile local workers and those who are obliged to come here. 's the IHigh Vost of Living a new problem with you? The election of Grace over Ilyde for mayor of Charleston cannot be considered in any other light than that of the peculiar local situation. The victory of Mr. Grace does not prove that Charleston is disloyal or licentious nor that It is lacking tit public spirit on the part of that por tion of its population that should stand for the best. Mr'. Grace and Mr. Hyde were leaders of opposing factions and there was a floating class of voters that sincerely mistrusted the motives of Mr. Hyde. Whether they had a right to this mistrust or not is beside the question, for it was for them to vote as their consciences dictated. The mistake tlat Charleston made and many other places make was in failing to recognize that people have different views of even the best citi zens and that it is wise to bring worth men who are not only above criticism in chiaracteri blit also in reputation. Maiybe ex-Gov. Tilease had about the same reason for withdrawing his name from the Cong ressional race as John T. Duncan might have. * ** Trhie high cost of living is not cais ing anybody to suffer who is putting in six days of work . even tlouiih they look at autolobiles longingly.
