"The trouble wlla the tariff * the governor said In this address, hl s teen that it is one of the most colos-| sal systems of deliberate patronage | that has he. n con- ? fft s\ and IBS main tr oihle is that protection stops where patronage begins." The governor In turning to his own candidacy remarked that he could say "without personal reference that whether by accident or however else It mlKbt be explained the Democratic candidate 1? not attach< d to any In? terest whatever; the alchemy that ac? complished this wan practical at Bal? timore." <;..%. Wilson said in part: "Let us consider, first, the Republi? can party. There is a. great deal of difference between the Republican party and certain groups of gentle? men who have been allowed to lead and direct the Republican party. The Republican party, as represented by these men. Is the very party which has got us into the difficulties we are now trying to net out of. 1 do not have to prove that, because we have got Into those ilfflcultles in the tan 16 years and during the last la years that party has been in power. If it did not get us Into these difficulties, w ro dio I. lernen, whatever may r intentions, linked the the United States with the men who control the big finances of the Fnlted States.. . . . Here is the old question of cam? paign funds: If I take $100,000 from a group of men representing a par? ticular Interest that has a big stake In a certain schedule of the tariff. I take It with the knowledge that those gentlemen will expect me not to for? get their Interest In that schedule and that they will take it as a point Of Implicit honor that I dhould see to it that they were n-.t gggAggBg by too great a change In that scheduv.

W0 have had samples of tht confusion already. We already have a very queerly assorted senate of the United statos. There are tome Democrats In it, some near I'.-morrats and Republicans, and ?omi ? x-Republicans, and It has been gambler's chance whether they would get together on anything or iv ?t. It has been did.cult to guoM after a dlf passed the hOttse of representa? tive exactly what was going to hap? pen to It v\ hen it got into the Senate, and the roll eall in several votes has seldom shown the same list of names. "Now, suppose you had the house of representatives mixed like the present senate? 1 think it would all gC tlshlng for the next two years! And If at the same time you had a leader insistent upon certain policies, think the air would be full of clamorous voices, but the statute book WOtlld be very empty of fulfill d promises?not been use, it may be, nobody was trying to fulfill the pro mingy but because each member Wal trying to fulfill a different promise. "But the most certain impediment to tho progress I have rfot yet spoken of. The new party docs not even propoOi to clear the docks and set the government free to act. The central pi- posal of its actual programme is to legalize monopoly. Instead of de? feating, instead of reversing and rem? edying, the evt; things that have been done under the mistaken leader? ship of the regular Republican lead? ers, it propped that the results of their mistakes shall be legalized and made regular by being taken under the direct supervision of the govern? ment of the United States. Whatever may be the philanthropic purpose of certain parts of its programme, t ie Inevitable result of that particular proposal will he to confirm by law the partnership between great trusts and the federal government. I do not say that this is what the leaders of the new party expect to propose, but merely that Is what will happen, what must happen under such a plar.. There has been a history of the hu? man race, you know, and a history of government; It is recorded; and the kind of thing they propose has always led to the results which 1 have pre? dicted. Then you have only the Demo? cratic party left; and you will ask ii c how 1 can set up a claim for the Democratic party. Well, in the first place, it is rather a line discipline to haTt been on the outside for 16 years. You have not trusted tho government >f the United State to the Demo? cratic party because the Democratic party has been opposed all these year* to the things that the Republican leaders were doing. Is not that a statement of mere fact Haven't we been attacking them and opposing them all these years and proposing programmes that once looked radical and now look reasonable? We haven't Just begun being progressive. We have been progressive for 16 years, and we saw the year ltU2 half a gene? ration before It came, Are you going to give us no credit for vision? Do you not think it counts for some? thing to stay out in the cold on a conviction for 16 years?

Columbia, Sept. l".?According to t' ntativc plans worked out at a con? ference* held her? yesterday, an In tensely interesting week is in store for prlte winning members of the boys' corn 'dubs throughout the Southern states. This will be at the first expo? sition BChOOl tor boys., to he con- 1 ducted in connection with the Fifth Kattenal Corn exposlti? n to be held hare .January and February, Repre |i litaiivei Of the corn club movement in this and other States spent practi? cally the entire day yesterday in the oflics of George n. Stevenson? general manager of the exposition, discussing the various plans which are under way for this decidedly unique fea? ture of the exposition. Among other matters decided upon, it is announced that the girls of the South who are working under the farm demonstra? tion movement, will also he admitted to the IChOOl, Details of this inter iStlng f?B iture will be announced dur the next few days. At the conference yesterday were J. B, Hobdy of Alabama, who has been selected as superintendent of the school; 0, B, Martin of Washington, who has charge of the boys corn Ol ih work in the South; W. L. English superintendent of the extension work at Clemson college and State demonstration agent, and C. 15. Had don of Clemson college, who has charge of the boys' corn club work in this State, The exposition school was the principal matter of importance discussed. The exposition school Is being ar? ranged by both the exposition man m ment and by the federal farm dem? onstration department. Both these Bgenctei are cooperating to make the school a success and a source of profit to tho.^e who attend it. Mr. Hobdy stands exceedingly high among agri? cultural educators of the South, and Is especially fitted for the manage? ment of the school. He is assistant in charge of the corn club work in Alabama, with headquarters at the State Agricultural college at Auburn. For the next few days, however, he will make headquarters at the expo? sition Offices here, and has made ar? rangements at his home otlice that will allow him to devote a large part of his time from now on to the va? rious problems of the exposition school. There will be at least 1,000 boys in attendance upon the school. Two prize-winners from each county in all the Southern States will he sent, and the State agents throughout the South have assured the school man? agement that, each State will be rep? resented by its full quota of boys. Frizes in the county contests will he adjudged on the basis Of yield, cost of production, exhibit, and report of crop. A programme which will as? sure the students the maximum of educational benefits, ag well ad daily exercises of the highest recreation val? ue, has been practically decided upon. The school will be semi - military in character. As a souvenir of tin' school and as a mark of Identification for the stu? dent when he arrives in Columbia, each boy coming to this exposition JOhool will be given a handsome me? dallion bearing a Ukeness of Dr. Seaman A. Knapp, who was the foun? der of the farm demonstration work and the corn club movement. This medallion will be attached to a strap so as to enable It to be worn as a watch fob. and it will also he equip? ped with a pin, which will allow it to be worn independently of the strap. < irders were placed yesterday for a Sufficient number of these to meet the needs of the school, Such a design Is especiallly appropriate to the bust of Dr. S. ?, Knapp, which will be [?resented during the exposition school to the State making the best show? ing in the boys' and girls' club work. This handsome hron/.e bust of Dr. Knapp is offered by South Carolina, and its presentation will be a note? worthy event ??f the school, Prospects are very bright for the exposition school, according to a statement made yesterday by Mr. Hobdy, Mr. Hobdy has talked with a number of corn club representatives and prospective sttidents throughout his section, and feels confident that the school will be among the most successful and most widely comment? ed upon features of the exposition. Accord I nn to a statement by O, B, Martin yesterday, it Is possible that Jerry Mooro's phenomenal corn growing record may be beaten this >ear by some South, rn farmer lad. Mr [Martin has traveled extensively through the south recently and was greatly pleased with prospects for heavy yields, at comparatively low production <o t among the corn club \n . v. tlon every two years Is a little 'o., much .-I a r. o.l thin::.

In the campaign preceding the recent primary election in South Car? olina whatever state issues there might have- been were completely ob? scured at the very outset, and finally became no part cd' the campaign at all, because of personalities and per? sonal politics. While it wasxtermed the bitterest political campaign the State has had since 1890, it was really no "political ' campaign i-'t all. The one in 1K90 had a statewide issue In? volved, and the issue growing out of it lasted for years. The one in 1912 was a fight of men, and its bitterness grew entirely on the personal element. -Augusta Chronicle. We differ with the Chronicle.
