RTOTTNG IN SPAIN.

The popular outbreaks in the prov
ince of Valencia last week against the
Government were attributed, by the
Minister of the Interior, to the insti-
CATION of Cuban emissaries. Possibly
agents of the insurgents may be at
work in Spain fomenting insurrection
but the Spanish people have more
immediate and pressing grievances,
and need no outside inducement to
impel them to rebellion. On them
fall the taxes levied to pay the en-
ormous expense of transporting,
equipping and supporting the 121 1926
soldiers who have already reached
the tEver Faithful Isle.' From their
come the vast numbers that compose
this army of subjugation; and those
at home who know the sufferings and
exposures of those who go, who
know the terrible and unavailing
sacrifice of life which has already
taken place, and the hopelessness of
reducing the island to subsection not
withstanding the daily reported tvic-
tory'' of the Spanish arms, may well
| feel that the time has come for them
to take a stand against further i'm
position or sacrifice. Spain is fight
ing losing battle in her contest with
Cuba, and is jeopardizing not merely
her national prosperity and credit.
but her own form of government as
well.

Some of the State papers are urg-
ing the advisability of calling off
the State campaign meetings, giving
as a reason for the advice that there
is nothing for the people to gain by
holding them longer. Right here
they are wrong. As low plane as
the present campaign is alleged to
have been pitched, there is benefit
to the people by their holding. One
of the measures advocated and
adopted by the Reform Movement is
that all officers shall be selected by
the people in primary election; that
those asking the suffrage of the peo-
pie shall appear before them and
state their views and position on
questions on the solution Of which
the people are interested. To call
off these meetings will virtually re-
pudiate this sound plank of the Re
form platform. It will be the be-
ginning of the return to the conven
ton system of nominating State
officers. Let the campaign meetings
proceed, gentlemen of the State Ex-
ecutive Committee.

The appeal Of D. c. Murphy tor
new trial has been dismissed by the
Supreme Court. 1t will doubtless
be remembered that Murphy was
tried for and convicted Of murdellng
and robbing Treasurer Copes IN
Orangeburg county about two
years ago, At the time of his al
rest there was strong talk of lynch
ing him and he was removed from
that county for safe keeping TO
the penitentiary where he has since
been confined. This is his last
chance for his life, unless the Gov
ornor interferes, which is not within
the scope Of human possibility. he
will be taken back to Orangeburg TO
be resentenced.
