THOSE GEORGIA DEMOCRATS The Georgia Democracy for several years has had a chronic case of political appendicitis, according to The Augusta Chronic^ At the receut meeting of the Democratic State Couvention in Atlanta it was decided that surgical operation was ne cessary and the vermiform ap pendix was cut out. In other I words, Tom Watson, who has been fighting both State and National Democracy inside the par ty for a number of years, wat road out of the party. The influence of the staunch old Democratic Augusta Chronicle, had much to do in bringing abou' this result. It is to be hopec Georgia Democracy may entire ly recover from the effect of tin disease that has long preyed up on her vitals, now that the ap pendix has been removed. Mai she live long and prosper. A tic may the premium on lynching b( abolished along with the appen dix. Santee, Wateree and Congare< got an appropriation from Con gross with all ease. All "e"s See! The Louisville Courier-Journa boils down Senator Roots 1jii< speech into three hues. "Tin Republican party wants to re turn to power at auy price." Members of the Oklahomi legislature got. into a free-for-ai tight using inkstands for weap ons. One was rendered uncoil scious in tlie melee. After May 1st liquor canuo be advertised in Georgia ii newspapers, periodicals or bil boards. Now it lynching couli be eliminated in Georgia as easi ly, how happy she would be! The Republicans in an tiler to make an issue to defeat til Democrats talk at random an talk wildly. For instance, som of them say we ought to Jigli Mexico and we ought to ligli . Germany and in the next breat 5 they say "we have no army. "We have no navy." Oil, "sue inconglomerations," as Mrs Partington would say. The f^iles bill, providing for s least thirty days chaingang set tence for every man convicted c selling liquor in South Caroline has been signed by Goveruo Manning and is now the law There is to be no line. The lav says for the first offense the sen tence shall be six months to tw> years, and for the second offensi the penalty is one to five year at discretion of the Judge. Senator Root's speech at tin New York Republican State Con ventiou was evidently a bid foi the Presidential nomination. Bui as Roosevelt has forestalled tha' job Root might take second place. Roosevelt, Root and Ruii would be the proper slogan foi the Republican campaign, or it might be Root hog or die. One of the greatest victories of the Allies is the capture of Erzerum by the Russians. Eiz erum is the gateway to Asia. It is the political center of the Armenian people. It will be a great relief for the Armenians to be freed from Turkish rule and the military ad ventage of the victory is very great as it enables the British to cooperate with the Russians and that will settle Turkey's harsh jn thai quarter. Congress gave South Carolina these appropriations in a rivers and harbor bill*; Wingah bay $100,000; Charleston harbor $80, 000, including the completion of a 28 foot channel to the sea; San tee, Wateree and Congaree rivers up to Columbia, $5r>,C00 That's not so bad, considering the fight on the bill. An when Hon W. P Stevenson reaches Wash ington we shall expect to see C< n gross spending like amounts for the impr >ve nenfc of public road* that i UD8 rUht by the homes oi Li e farmers k II I '"" - I'll tHE HORIZON'S ENCHANTMENT . Ralph Waldo Emerson som where says: [ "The moment we set sail ro mance leaves our ship and settles on every sail on the horizon-" Perhaps there is no experience more univeral to the human race that the enchantmeut of dis tanco, whether it be of time or place. The good days are the old days or else in the distant future. Rarely can one be fouud to say, "These are good days; the work that I ain now doinf? is ideal, aud deserves the best that is in me; that which is at hand commands my chief interest " Now it seems to us and has! for a lout* time seemed so. thnt.l in no realm of endeavor is this fascination of the distance so strong as in that highest and noblest of all realms of activity, the religious. A dear friend of the editor's was serving a good charge in his ' native State, Mississippi, but ho needs must give up home and friends, leave the black belt of Mississippi and go to Africa to teach the darkies Another ministerial friend must leave the j mountains of Kentucky and travel all the way to India to lind a those who needed his ministration.

And then us we come down to South Carolina wo find the foieign missi nary spirit very * much alive and ever ready to ' kindle into a flume of enthusiasm * and zeal (as il should be), but * our own industrial home crying for food and raiment, our orphanage children improperly I nourished at?d apparently none II cares. ' There are cases in this county crying to heaven for succor, but they are too near to be heard or seen. Our home missions, such as I they are, are more interested in Alaska, the far west, in Hono'.u< u la and the Philippines. Oh, that God would take pity u on our own needy cases, and II move them off to the hori/.on h Then we would build homes for ' the homeless; then wo w old 1, lilt up the fallen and caie for the St dying.
