and jealousy so that no Obscrvant mind
can fail TO see through all of England's
troubles with her colonies the fine
artful hand of Russian diplomacy. No
racial sentiment can convince Amcri-
cans that the entire spirit between the
two nations is other than IL desire to
control eastern politics and commerce,
nor can anglo maniacs convince us
that we are either directly or remotely
related to this question in any phase.
Russia hes been to the United States
an old time friend, automatically and

following the purp0rt of its secret alli-

while she is engaged in two unhOly
wars, risk, the friendship Of her Rus
Sian friends by openly resisting their
rights toIuc!l the riots, Il feat the other

the base hypocrisy Of that drbascd old
rcprobatc in declaring as ITS principles
what it has failed throughout he past
four years to enact into law. 1t has
been in full control, for this period, of
every branch of the national govern
mcnt, and has had during that time
ample opportunity to place upon the

naturally arises in the inquiring mind.

There j, one place that the people
can appeal to in case it becomes ncccs-
>aiy to check this exclusive franchise
craze. and that is to the Legislature.
II Is asking too much Of Il City Conucil
'G be- responsible for the welfare Of the
city where so much is ut stake us there
is wherever IN exclusive franchise for
any period is demanded. We say this
for the reason that there is absolutely
no compensation attached to the office
OF Alderman, and no citizen should be
placed in Il position that will subject
his actions to the criticizing scrutiny
OF suspicious and captious men. 1t is
responsibility which the people them
selves should bear. and to that end q
new law should be enacted, and that
speedily, that will refer all franchise
Ordinances back to the voters of a
municipality for final ratification. The
principle may seem somewhat s0cialis-
tic, but it has also the warrant Of wide
Democratic endorsement through nu-
merOus State platforms, and for this
specific purpose, without cOmmittin
ourselves to the principle as univer-
sal reform, it has our wnrmest com
mendatiOn. The candidates for the
Legislature will have then one more
issue to face, and here in Anderson
city their position must be declared
unequivocally, as the people demand
some relief from the present dangerous
power lodged in the hands of few
men to give away valuable franchises,
whether plain or exclusive. We say
that it must be withoul equivocation,
and we say further that silence in
regard to this Issue implies opposition
to the measure, and the people will 80
interpret it, 80 that those candidates
who have net studied the question as
it bears upon the city's interests are
notified that q full, open and voluntary
expression from them On the subject
will be awaited with discriminating
interest by the people whose rights
have been jenperdizod and whose arms
are now barred in maintaining the JUS
tice of their vain appeals.

The frequent miscarriage of justice
in capital cases in this State moves the
Columbia State to urge the wisdom of
imposing upon the Coroner in such
cases the duties of public prosecutor.
Under the present arrangement there
is no provision for the collection of
evidence necessary to a successful
prosecution of the case, such duties
necessarily devoiving upon outraged
citizens or parties directly at interest.
Thus it will be seen that, except in
isolated cases, "everybody's business
is nobody's business" and the futility
of the popular demand 80 often made
upon "Otficers of t'-e law" is demon
strated upon the presentation of the
States case in every criminal prosecu-
ton. 1t might not be wise to clothc
Coroners with detective authority in
ITS generally accepted sense, but the
scores of unavenged murders in the
State from year to year demand that
the State exercise more watchful
vigilance over the lives of her citizens,
and that the life of 10 citizen shall be
jeopardized at the instance of tho State
unless She is prepared to present
stronger evidence than is too often
made the basis of hopeless prosecu-
ton. There is need of Wholesale re-
form along this line, and the INTELLI-
GENCER gladly joins the State in urging
action by the Legislature.

The war in China has forced the ad-

The inclination of the Democratic
leaders to allow the delegates to the
National Convention to select the can
didate for Vice President in the con-
vention proper adds greatly to the
respectability of tho Democratic Or
sanization. The disgraceful scenes
enacted at the Republican Convention
in the pell-mell struggle of the small
fry politicians and heelers to capture
the nomination from the besieged
bosses indicates in eloquent terms the
utter disregard of the Republican
party for the potential voice of the
people. When it hears with unheeding
ear the peoples cry on the eve of the
peoples opportunity, what may be ex-
pected from them firmly cntrenched in
the sway of unlimited authority!
Democracy has risen to her opportunity
gracefully and with becoming dignity.
Whoever may be the nominee Mt the
hands of the convention will receive
his authority not from handful of
domineering kinfmakers but from the
hearts and sober judgments of the as
sembled representatives Of the people.
who know no coercion, no boss rule
ana no ar-chamber arrogance. OBJ
servant voters who are doubtful as to
the usefulness of Democracy to the
people will learn valuable lesson in
politics by careful comparison of the
methods of the two conventions.
