The very atmosphere at Gaffney
seems to breed belligerency. There it
was that Tillman and McLaurin shook
fists in each others faces, and resigned
the highest Office within the gift of
their people. There it was that Editor
DeCamp called Jim Tillman a liar and
offered to prove it over Tillman's own
signature. There it, was within the
past few days that two candidates for
the United States Senate engaged in a
fisticuff. All these things happened at
political meetings in this place. We
await with interest further develop
ments from Gafney.

ercised his prerogative under the con-
stitution, and appointed the seven
members without regard to your pre-
ferenceS.
, 2. You are not responsible for the
changes made in the books. You
stronly opposed the adoption of some.
A board of nine men selected the books
by majority vote in each case; and no
one man could control the result, or can
have the blame or praise for what was
done. All acquiesced Loyalty in the
result, and to you, as State Superin-
tendent of Education, is due the credit
that the uniformity of text-books-so so
much to be desired-has become fact,
and is not dead letter.
8. The country schools were in con-
fusion from the great diversity of books
that had been permitted. The best
teaching could not be done when the
teacher had to use any and every book
that each pupil brought. Therefore
any serious effort to improve the coun-
try schools necessarily involved great
changes in textbooks.
After such changes have been made
and the people have acquiesced in the
enforcement of the law, it is unfortu-
nate for candidate for the high Office
of State Superintendent of Education
to come before the people and try to
make them dissatisfied with a change
that has already been made, that can
not be undone, and that all intelligent
school men must know is for the bet
terment of the work in the country
schools.
4. 1t is false to say there have been
frequent changes" :" The changes were
ordered in 1900, to take place Novem-
Der Is, 1901. The contract forbids any
more changes before July 1, 1906, and
there will probably be little reason for
many changes then.
5. Although you were opposed to
some of the adoptions, you accepted
the result in good faith; and, in the
enforcement of the use of the adopted
books, you have done your full duty.
Regardless of the opposition you would
incur, you applied yourself with determ-
ination to having the law and the con-
tract carried out. 1t is, therefore, due
chiefly to your efforts that South Caro-
Ina enjoys the lowest prices and ex-
change rates.

Uncle Sam to Deal with.

Thomas Moore and James Briggs,
Of Oneida, are under arrest. They
did not like the new postmaster
there, so they laid in waiting one day
and caught him while he was carry
ing the mail from the office to the
depot. They bounced upon him and
gave him a severe trouncing. He
missed the train with the mail on &C
count of the fight. Now his assail-
ants must answer to Uncle Sam for
delaying mails.
