THE SOUTH CAROLINA PRIMARY.

The result of the senatorial primary
election in South Carolina argues we'll
for the primary plan The campaign was
no more lively and exciting than political
campaigns usually are in the Palmetto
State-and the best man won
So far as we have been able to learn
there was no hint Of bribery or of buying
votes. The candidates for the United
States Senate went before the people ask
ing their votes. Just as candidates for any
other offices do, the people saw them and
selected between them. 1t is very evil
dent that the people made no mis- Jake in
the selection.
The primary plan is worth trying in
Virginia, aud if found to be good thing
we can hold to it,, and if not, we can drop
it.-Danville Register
Against this method of selecting the
servants Of the public Senator John w.
Daniel entered a vigorous protest at the
late State convention of the Democratic
party. 1t is safe to say that the next
national Senator from South Carolina
will not be a Tom Martin The primary
plan is Democratic to the ore and at no
distant day will be adopted III Virginia.

Lord Kelvin, who has recently in

But there is no reason why the passing

If somewhat sensational reports of
wholesale pension frauds in New York,
amounting to hundreds of thousands of
dollars, and printed in the press of that
city, can be true, there would seem to be

ever, are not so, are collecting the
stipends regularly of veterans long dead,
we are afraid that there are practices

LABOR DAY \ AMERICA


If foreign observer, preparing to
write book on his imressioDs of America
the day after landing at Hoboken, had
happened to be informed that yesterday
was the ,laborers' national holiday, he
would have remarked, taking out his note
book and pencil: "Ah, extremely inter.
esting. Where are the laborers?''
He would have looked for n distinctive
mass of working people, in blouses and
caps, distinguishable at n glance from
the better classes around them. But he
might have searched the city through, all
the suburban resorts in which the
thronging thousands we've enjoying their
day of liberty, without finding trace OF
what he. sought. he would have seen
swarms of well dressed people, intent
upon the various recreations within
reach, with individual differences enough
but with no general distinctions OF type
He would have been able to tell the
clerk, the lawyer or the teacher from
the mechanic Or the truckman
And perhaps he would have begun to
understand the fact that, in spite OF alb
normal accumulations Of wealth Mt one
end OF the social scale and abject misery
at the other, American society has not
yet entirely lost it's original homogeneity
There are not yet any hard and fast So
clal classes, marked oil from each other
by signs obvious to the casual observer
There is no aristocracy on one hand and
no degraded proletariat on the other. The
iaborer is neither n clodhopper ncr AN an
archist. but simply an American citizen,
to he addressed by the arguments that
appeal 70 other American citizens
The extent to which our working popu-
.ation. whether of native or of foreign
births imbued with American ideas has
been illustrated in the coal strike, now
happily approaching its end. In the
whole of that determined struggle, last
ing over two months violence has been
almost unknown. 1t is finally to be set
tied, not ~ brute compulsion, but by n
free conference between the miners and
their employers. in which all the tech.
MICA conditions of the mining industry
will be discussed as fully and intelli-
gently by the representatives f the me n
as they would be by the judges of a
court.
The laboriug class in this country is
practically synonymous with the Ameri-
can people. Labor Day is holiday al
most as national as the Fourth of July.

celebrate the one and not the other are

1t seems to be the general impression

TO EXPEDITE JUSTICE.
Ten Terms of Court for Civil Cases Dur
ing the Year

Ten Terms of Court for Civil Cases Dur
ing the Year.
For some time past the question has
been discussed by the legal fraternity of
the advantages of trying civil and Grim
inal cases ut every term of the court in
stead OF at alternate terms. The matter
was brought to the attention OF Judge
Christian, who to-day stated in court
that in the interest of the expedition of
justice he would in the future hold civil
and criminal terms at every term, except
during April, November and July, whit h
Will be exclusively criminal terms, and
August, which is the month set apart for
vacation. IL April and November, Judge
White holds u term of the circuit court
which will give the lawyers additional
oppoi tunity to try civil cases in that
court, thus giving the people ten civil
terms Al year, instead of six. as ut present.

WHY SOME NATIONS FIGHT.

The so-called vaior of different people,
as attested 10y history, may be sum moned
up in IL few words. The English are
proverbially avaricious and fight for the
acquisition of territory and the subiuga
ton of other nations. The Russian fights
at the behest of despotic master and
through dread of disobedience bringing
him severer punishment. They, like
most semi barbarous tribes, are ferocious
but not brave. The German fights for
"faderland, without inquiring whether
his emperor is tight or wrong. He is
trained to war,well disciplined and obeys
orders. The Frenchman likes the geant
and excitement of battle, is intoxicated
by the death of contending hosts and
will die for glory. The Spanard' fights
for vengeance, for plumber or to destroy
traditional enemy The American fights
for his flag, the emblem of liberty and
natural freedom of man.
