CONCERNING THE CANDIDATES. Solid Timber There. So far as the personality and rec? ords of the candidates ure concerned, It has been many a day since the voters of South Carolina have had such a splendid range of choice in de? ciding upon a preference for governor, und we doubt as to whether there are a great many individuals of reasonable intelligence in the State'who are un? able to pick from the list a candidate who will not suit exactly. More than once tho list of candi? dates has been quite sorry, in the iirst place there were few aspirants out, und in the second place among those that were out, there wero none who were satisfactory to any consid? erable number of people. Tho point was being reached where men began to say with pretty widespread appro? val that tho primavy system had serv? ed its day, that good men wero no longer willing to go to the expense and endure the viliitlcati >n and abuse for the slim chance of securing the governorship; but that argument no longer holds. It would be a ditticult thing for anybody to deliberately se? lect as candidates tor the governor? ship, a better average lot of men than those now offering. We have In the list, men wi.o have come up from the ranks and made good with but few early educational opportunities. We have men who were born with silver spoons In their mouths, and who have had the benetlt of all that could be secured from schools, co?eges ?and universities. Some of theso have had wide legis? lative cxpenrience, and others have made their way in business, profes? sional and educational life, and gen? erally speaking we would say that the reputations and characters of all are good. So far as we know, there is no really serious and unquestion? able reproach against any of them. Whoever of the entire bunch may be elected, it Is safe to say that South Carolina will have a good governor. Dut we do not want anybody to think that tho outlook Is one for peace *nd satisfaction, no matter who is elected, and that it Is all the same to the state, for twist it and turn it as we will, there are too pretty well de? fined factions in tho Democratic party of South Carolina. In reality there are two parties instead of one party, and this party feeling is going to cut more or less llgure all through the campaign, especially at tho end of it. There is going to be an effort to con? centrate party or faction behind a candidate of its own, and if in the end it shall turn out that both the ihghest candidates are of tho same faction, then tho other faction will do &r. It can to determine the issue in favor of its preference between the two. This has been tho rule in every campaign since the state-wide pri? mary was Inaugurated, and thero will be no deviation from the rule in this cam paimi.?Yorkville Enquirer. Hurrah for Lung!

Mcl*auriit und III case. It is well known that there has been a break between Senator Mc l.aurin and Gov. Blease. Mel^aurln hoped to get the leadership of the Ukase forces In the State, and had tho promise of tho endorsement of j the 1 ilea.se. leaders, but ho discovered that ho was not being given a square deal; that ltlease was encouraging the other candidates for governor the samo way.

A correspondent from the low coun? try who Is very much experienced in matters political, writes The Enquir? er: "Of course, it is hard to tell just vet with any degree of certainty; but it looks like Manning and Richards in] the second race for governor" We felt quite sure some time back that it would be Manning and McLnurln? Ac? eordlng to our way of figuring the candidacy of McLaurln would base forced tilings out that way; but now we are lost Of course we still have a guess at tho matter; but just at this moment we do not feel that we could guessj with any degree of conviction, Y<>rk\ lib* Enquirer.

Well, Major, since you are so frank, will you be kind enough to inform an anxious public for vvhom you voted for governor IB 1912, also, if you did not then, as we think, very properly take the position that your vote was a pri? vate mater and it was nobody's busi? ness for whom you voted??York Xewi NKW CHAKLESTON TRAIN.
