Cured, and that this burden should
not tall upon other sections of the
State where the law is enforced and
obeyed, and where the local au-
thorities give their assistance and
moral support in the enforcement of
the law
The law has never been enforced
III Charleston, and it never will be
enforced there until public senti-
nent demands it's enforcement and
the municipal authorities give their
efforts III that direction. The gov
ernor, bound by his oath, must seek
the enforcement of the law IN all
parts of the State, and under the
conditions prevailing in Charleston
the attempts which must be made,
even though they prove futile,
mean the expenditure of a large
sum OF money. 1t most certainly
would not be just to let the school
fund suifer the loss Of this extra ex-
penditure when it is made neces-
sary by the inaction and, it some
times seems, the opposition of the
local authorities. AS the board
says, it would be unfair to those
communities which uphold the law,
many of them not approving it but
upholding it because law should be
upheld. There were only two
courses left. Either the governor
must abandon his attempt to enforce
the law in Charleston, or Charles
tons share Of the profits must be
taken and applied to the enforce
ment OF the law in Charleston. The
State board, very properly we think,
chose the latter course. The board,
however, i'll order that Charleston
might not be done an injustice,
made its action only temporary,
requesting the Charleston city and
county authorities TO appear before
the board OH the 2nd of December
to show cause why the action should
not be made permanent.

T.. II. AULL, EDIToR.
AS TO COUNTY FINANCES.

Trained from making any comment
On the financial condition Of the
county. The presentment of the
grand jury and the statement of
Supervisor Schumpert were printed.
We believe, however, in giving JUS
tice to every one and showing par
tiality to none. The editor of this
paper told the people in the cam
paign of 1902 that there was no
chance for reduction OF taxation
and endeavored ts show why there
was not.
Now Il. !. w. gets after the
supervisor and says its a great pity
the financial ccEditicu of the county
is what it is and sa -. the peo.
pie do not object to paying out their
money when they can see where it
has been wisely spent. TO both Of
these propositions we readily assent.
But let us be just. 1t is our opinion
that 1t was a waste Of public money
to put sewerage in the basement of
the court house, but it was proper
to have the sewerage put in the
Jail anc The rooms up stairs to the
court house. The grand jury gets
after the supervisor for this expen-
diture. 1t may be too large for the
work that was done and certainly
SO large contract should not have
been let without first advertising
tor competitive bids. But, is it not
fact that the grand jury at pre-
vlous terms Of court recommended
this work to be done? We say let
us be just in our criticisms.
The last legislature provided
$40, 900 for past Indebtedness and a
special tax was levied to meet
this. That leaves the debt SI2, 900.
Now what is this for and what is
there to show for it? There is the
steel bridge in the lower part of the
county which was an expenditure
which will benefit the people of the
county. Then there is the good
roads machinery which if properly
handled will not be waste of
money but profitable investment.
Then there is something to show
for it.
We do not pretend in this article
to be accurate and neither are we
defending Supervisor Schumpert,
but we do believe in being fair and
just. There is something to show
for this debt. Whether the expen-
diture was wise or not NAV be
largely matter of opinion. The
Herald and News thinks it was
wise to build the steel bridge men-
toned. We do not think that we
were just in a position to buy good
roads machinery because we had
not provided the means to operate
it, and yet if properly used it is a
good investment. We think we
went at it little too strong in the
matter of sewerage, and certainly
competitive bids should have been
asked for.
AS to the other charges against
Supervisor Schumpert, we have no
knowledge upon which to base an
opinion.
We would not have said anything
but for the criticism of II. T. w.
But let us be tair and just and give
to every one the same consideration
we would expect for orrselves

NEW CONFIDENCE GAME, !"
SAYS EDITOR BRYAN
Sees Organized Wealth Behind Re-
organized Democracy.

LINCOLN. Neb., Aug 2s.-"It is ap-
parent" says Bryan in the "Commoner, ="
that the reorganizers are attempting to
play another confidence game, first on
the Democratic party and then on the
public. They want a platform that is
ambiguous and candidates who are not
openly pledged to anything, but who are
secretly pledged 10 the representatives
of organized wealth. Then they propose
TO collect a large campaign fund from
corporations and use IL to buy the float
ing vote
The word Democrat is to be used 20
cover anything that the schemers want,
and the campaign is ~ be run on plans
approved by modern Republicanism This
is what was done in 1892, and the bunco
game was fully developed in Mr. Cleve-
lands administration. AS soon as the
rank and file understand the nature Of
the struggle they will arise in their
might and overthrow the political high
waymen who wear the mask of Dem
ocracy. but who are bent upon the spoil
alton OF the masses"

National Search Made
For Gaillard's Portrait
1t Is the Only One Needed to Complete Collection of Pres
dents Vice Presidents, and Cabinet Members.

The most valuable single feature OF
the exhibit of the Department of State
at the St Louis Exposition from a his
torical standpoint has just been COM
pleted. 1t consists of a series OF pic
lures arranged on twenty-six panels In
the center of every panel is a portrait
of a President of the United States, be-
ginning with Washington. and ending
with Roosevelt. Immediately under
meath the President is smaller portrait
of the Vice President. The Chief Execu-
tives and Vice Presidents are shown in
square frames. Surrounding each Presi-
dent and Vice President are the por-
traits of all the officers OF the Cabinet,
belonging to the respective Administra-
tons. in oval frames giving the effect of
an oval group on the square panel.
This is the first time this collection of
pictures was ever made Several large
New York publishing firms have sent
members of their stats to the Library of
Congress to obtain portraits of the for
mer members of the Cabinet from the
beginning of the Government, but they
returned baf1ed for no one ever thought
American history.
About six months ago, Col W. H.
Michael. the representative of the De-
partment of State on the Government
board, suggested the idea of making the
collection of portraits for his exhibit at
the st. Louis Exposition. He mention
ed 1t to his lieutenant. Major Frank II.
Peabody. who has Immediate charge of
collecting the exhibits. and Major Pea
body has been corresponding with peo-
pie throughout the East ever since He
has just finished making the collection.
The most difficult portrait to find was
that of Senator Gaillard, of South Caro-
lima, who during the two administrations
OF President Madison was President pro
TEN. OF the Senate, and consequently
Acting Vice President of the United
States. Vice Presidents Clinton and Ell
bridge Gerry both died without serving
any material length of time as Vice
President. Therefore, on the panel in
which Mr.. Madison occupies the central
position, Messrs. Gaillard. Clinton and
Gerry will occupy the space Immediately
below the Chief Executive.
1t was necessary in order to get pic
lures to ransack the archives of the
Library, of Congress and of all the de-
partments of the Government Major
Peabody examined over 100. 600 prints Ia
the Library of Congress and hundreds of
old histories, magazines and papers.
Some of the portraits were missing after
this was done. Consequently Major Pea
body commenced a correspondence with
the editors of the leading papers In the
States from which the Vice President or
Cabinet officer came whose portrait
was missing. He finally succeeded in
The Washington times., 1903-08-28

finding good pictures of all excepting the
Hon. John Gaillard. Major Peabody
wrote to DR.. j. Somers Buist. of Charles
ton. an old friend. explaining his di-
lemma.
DR.. Buist published Major Peabody s
letter in the News and Courier" and
the next day received a number of let
tiers and much valuable data showing the
interest the matter had aroused. These
letters brought TO light many facts in
the life of this distinguished South Caro-
linian, among others that he is buried
in the Congressional Cemetery, this city.
Mrs. William Gaillard, of Charleston,
sent to Major Peabody portrait of Sen
ator Gaillard taken when he was about
fifteen years old. Major ]. C. Hemphill,
managing editor OF the News and Cour-
Ter" and DR.. BUST are still trying to
find picture taken during Mr.. Gaillard S
maturity.
The value of this collection to the
country is inestimabIe. II is the only
one in existence. 1t was prepared ex-
clusively for the St Louis Exposition
and is another pointer showing that ex-
positions are important factors in the
progress of the world. They stimulate
ambition, foster arts and sciences, en-
courage agriculture and similar pur-
suits, and promote research in every di-
rection.
Captain Michaels thoughtful appre-
citation of the capabilities of his depart
ment's exhibit has done wonders IN en-
larging its scope and Importance. In
fact, the Department of State should
have a larger share OF money at future
expeditions. 1t has to deal with most
important functions of the Government,
and by far the most distinguished his
tory makers in the republic belong in
the space allotted to it. In a worlds
fair its Importance is greatly enhanced.
No single thing in the Government
building will interest visitors more than
these effective groups, shown in chro
biological order, of the men who have
been foremost in making the United
States one of the great nations of the
world
Major Frank H. Peabody will greatly
appreciate it If any reader of this, who
knows oil an authentic portrait of Mr..
GaiIlard. will address him at the De-
partment of State, Washington, d. c.,
and give him the desired information.
No pains VIII be spared TO obtain a good
copy of the portrait. II is the only one
now needed to make the collection com
plete. The portrait OF Mr.. Gaillard
which Major Peabody has represents
him as a youth. not man, but it will
be used If another cannot be found.
These portraits are now being repro
dueed by Washington artist in uniform
size and style.
