South Carolina and Republication

f, The very name republican Is. we are told
repugnant to the great majority of the
people of South Carolina. 1t stands for all
that is abominable in public policies and
bitter in their own experiences. Their po-
litcal intolerance is explained and justified
on the score that it Is but the exercise OF
everyday human nature. How can they
ever forget the carpet-bag regime? How
can they be expected to affiliate even after
thirty years have passed. with the party
associated by name with that disgraceful
history? Is this fine frenzy genuine or
largely simulated for partisan purposes?
In local affairs the feeling displayed
against the republicans looks genuine. At
any rate it accomplishes every object for
which 1t Is displayed. The republicans are
practically without an organization. They
exercise no influence whatever on local af-
fairs They hold no local offices. They
are under the severest political ban that
can be placed upon men in free country.
Probably some Of them wonder at times
whether the country is free. So that the
democrats of South Carolina, in the matter
of local control and management, are abso-
lutely free from all touch with republicans
and republicanism
But how stands the case when national
affairs considered? Are they as par
ticular then to keep themselves unspOtted
from republicanism? Do they refuse to
profit by republican policies? OF course
those policies. when inaugurated and IL
proven wise, benefit every section of the
country. South Carolina would benefit even
against her protest. But does she protest?
Not a bit of it, She comes to Washington
with her sister states, and with them is
welcome, and explains her position thor
oughly to Congress. For an instance when
the tariff is up Cor revision. she wants
protection for her Industries, and gets it.
Her democratic sons explain that they call
that policy robbery at home. but, all the
same. If it is to prevail they want their
share Of the plumber "And let us show you
how to levy it; and please make the
amount as big as possible We need the
money, and all we desire is that you fell
lows shoulder the responsibility for the
bill"
The play smacks strongly of farce COM
edy. The party whose name alone Is suf-
ficient to rule out voters and candidates
in the state is the same party from which
the South Carolina democracy solicits and
obtains fayOrs in matters affecting the
material prosperity of the state, and the
same party whose present national and in
ternational policies concededly promote the
pCrtant respects than those of any other
newspapers are expressing disgust with
that stupid and dishonest racket about
negro domination-a cry used in South
ing combination of democratic local con-
troll.

Vacation Schools.
From American Medicine.

Sixteen years ago a physician, DR.. VIM.
N. Barringer. then superintendent of
schools at Newark. N. j., proposed, and the
vacation schools Since that time one city
or community after another has followed
the excellent example, until now there are
probably a score or more In which it Is In
practical working. Nature study, cooking,
wood carving, bent-iron work, drawing,
painting. basket weaving. cane-seating,
athletics are some of the subjects taught.
The women's clubs have been most active
in encouragement Of this progressive move
ment. Physicians will certainly help to
make it general. and see that proper ath-
letics and physical culture are parts Of the
program. Such schools, rightly managed
are surely great preventives of disease and
helpers in establishing a high grade OF
healthful life. Coupled with the vacation
Fairgrounds they constitute q powerful
sanitary as well as moral influence for the
betterment Of the lives and bodies Of the
coming generations.

The Weakness of Shamrock ii,

A HALL OF FAMELESS.

The propos ed Colorado Hall of
Fame for the st. Louis exposition
should be dropped as fanciful de-
lusion. Colorado is too young to
have anything to boast of or to re-
quire Hall of Fame. 1t has no
prominent individuality and no
noteworthy history save in COM
mercial lines. This state was set
tied by people of adventurous spir-
it, part of whom were moved by
love of adventure and the other
part actuated by mercenary intent.
Some good may have resulted in
an incidental manner, but the most
worthy are hidden in the obscurity
of common pursuits. Colorado
will be better prepared to institute
a Hall of Fame one hundred years
hence.

that after the orders for delivery

w. Harris, the state game and fish
commissioner, are filed there will
be none of the 100000 rainbow fry
raised at this hatchery left for dis
tribution to the Gunnison and its
tributaries. Harris has ordered all
to be delivered to other parts of the
state. The people here have aided
the hatchery with labor and money
and take pride in the fact that the
strongest and best fry are produced
here and that the Gunnison and
its tributaries are justly famous as
the finest trout streams of the
state.
It is to be remembered that the
spawners used at this hatchery
were seined from their natural
spawning grounds in the Gunnison
and its tributaries. 1t is also to be
remembered that between two and
three hundred thousand fish. are
hooked from these streams by
people from everywhere each sea-
son. If these streams are to be
robbed of their spawpers and de-
MED any part of the fry to replen-
ish them, their fame will soon be a
thing of the past.
When the people learned of the
orders of the commissioner, a peti-
ton WAS promptly presented asking
him to give at least fifth of the
fry to the Gunnison and tributar-
les, Offering to distribute them under
direction of Superintendent Crooks
without cost to the state. Harris
eurtly refused to change an order
and contemptuously remarked that
Gunnison was not entitled to any
thing, but that it could have what
may be left.

MONEY NEVER LOST THAT is
EXPENDED IN DEVELOPING
MINERAL RESOURCES.

The statement is often made that
millions of dollars have been
wasted and lost in useless work on
unproductive mines in this state.
1t is not lost in the sense that
money is lost in shipwreck or a
fire. 1t simply changes hands.
Men with means go into mining
speculation and employ men who
work by the day to do the work on
the claim. They buy machinery,
provisions, tools, and sink shafts,
run tunnels, and do general mining
work, which they pay for. The
money goes into the hands of the
people who make the machinery,
tools, etc, and those who do the
mining work. And the work in
going on gives employment direct
ly and indirectly to many persons,
according to the magnitude of the
interests involved. So, now, if a
mining venture proves a financial
failure to those who have invested,
the region where the mine is stu
ated gets the benefit of the money
spent.
Even unlucky mine ventures add
to the general wealth. There are
few which do not produce some re-
suits in gold or silver, even if the
amount is not sufficient to pay pro-
fits, and every cent taken out adds
SO much to the worlds wealth. If
people spend 100000, and only
get out $4,000, there is $4,000
more in circulation than before that
amount was taken out, and the
100000 is yet in existence, but in
other than original hands.
The argument may seem specious
and would not be satisfactory to the
men who have put in the money
and lost it; but they have simply
lost it. 1t is gone from them and
is in some one else's hands. 1t is
not lost to the worlds circulation.
But we often hear of heavy losses
in mining, which are merely losses
in stock. Men pay $40 a share for
stock and it goes down to 81 a
share. The appreciation or shrink
age of stock makes and loses many
fortunes. But it is not of this
form of mining" we are speaking.
1t is in legitimate mining work
where money is paid men who de-
velop property, in hope that re-
turns may be made on the invest
ment from the product of the mine
itself
OF course q great deal of money
is expended on unproductive prop
critics. Yet, on the whole, there is
no doubt that taking the mines of
the country at large, very heavy
profits have been made on the
