Worst in States History.

The flood that is now sweeping
over the upper part of the State is
said to be the worst in the State S
history. 1t has damaged property
to the extent of hundreds of thou
sands of dollars, at least two or
three lives lost, devastated farms,
ruined crops, bridges washed away,
cotton mills and power plants
closed, railroad service traffic almost
paralyzed, and telephone and tele-
graph service badly crippled, tell
the story of the flood which has
been raging in the Piedmont and
Pee-Dee sections of South Carolina,
and the eastern portion of North
Carolina for the past three days
and which is undoubtedly the most
destructive that has ever visited
this section of the country. The
rivers are all out their banks and
some of them are steadily rising.

any fair estimate of the loss, but It

Floods and the Forests.

The upper part of South Caro-
lima is again suffering from a terri
bic flood, which is serious in its dis
turbance of business, by the inter-
ruption of communication, in the
damage already wrought to the
fields and the roads, and in the very
great menace to the mill properties.
water power plants and other inter-
ests Immediately concerned in the
swelling of the rivers.
AS the Charleston Post says "these
floods are due to the sudden pour
ing of the mountain streams into
the rivers, resulting from torrential
rains, throughout the high regions,
and the condition. demonstrates eff
fectively the wanton effects that
have come from the destruction
that has been made of the timber
growth on the mountains and hills
which make the water shed of this
State.
IF the highlands had not been
stripped of foliage, the heavy rain
fall of the past few days would not
be pouring down unrestricted into
the streams and flowing to swell the
rivers into destructive torrents. The
forests hold for a time and distri.
butte gradually the rainfall. and the
streams carry off the water evenly
and adequately. But without this
natural control and distribution OF
the rainfall the rivers receive in 6
a rush the whole precipitation OF
the mountains.
"The economical necessity fol
preserving the forests upon our hills
is beginning to be realized by the
people of this country, but it is not
yet fully appreciated. Meantime,
the forests are going, and the prop
critics in the valleys are suffering
from the floods. If the government
would establish the Appalachian re-
serve, which has been urged SO gen
orally but has been defeated by
Speaker Cannon, there would be
some relief to the situation. Unless
this is done the conditions are likely
to get worse"

istration; the crash Uf laoL Iali,
which came as a thunderbolt out of
a clear sky, when all the world was
in state of profound peace and our
own country was weighted with the
wealth of its abundant harvests: the
subsequent stoppage of the wheels
of industry, the shrinkage of values,
the general stagnation Of business,
and the tens of thousands Of unem-
ployed with their empty dinner
pals. These are the ugly facts for
which the Republican party is re-
sponsible, and from which it cannot
escape.
Now in opposition to all these
evils growing out of Republican
rule, which are patent facts filled
with oppression and corruption, the
Republican party has nothing to Of
fer but fancies. The vivid imagina-
tions of Mr.. Taft and other leaders
of his party see in the principles of
the Democratic platform terrible
calamities to the country should
they be adopted as national policies.
Unable to combat with facts and ar
guments the strength of the Demo
crat position, they rely upon these
conjured-up bogeys to frighten the
people. They hope to turn their at
tention from the real present-day
evils under Republican rule by pre-
senting imaginary evils under fu-
ture Democratic rule. They are
playing the part of false prophets,
trying TO enact the role of the
Witch of Endor who made Saul see
the reflected image of her magma
ton. Thus Mr.. Taft sees in the
Democratic tariff policy panic,

deposits a multitude Of bank sharks

AGREES with Senator TilIman.

In commenting on the race riot at
Springfield. Illinois, the Augusta
Chronicle says 1.-The characteristics
of the Anglo-Saxon race---the de-
termination to protect the purity of
its blood and the supremacy of its
institutions---cannot be eradicated
by the mouthings of political dema-
gogues and academic social reform
ers. Social equality is an inevitable
corallary of political equality and at
the first rsign of an effort on the
part of the negro to assert this
social eqality, orwhenever there
there is an act of Violence born
of these crazy aspiration, ven
geance as swift and sure as fate will
rise up to smite them and to assert
the supremacy of the Anglo-Saxon
race.

Facts and FancIes.

Of the two great parties now con-
fronting each other and asking for
the suffrages of the people, it may
be said that on the side of one lies
facts and on the side of the other
nothing but fancies. The Demo-
cratic party has an array of solid in
convertible facts upon which to
urge its claims for support, where
as the Republican party has moth
ing to present but its wild fancies
of disaster should il cease to hold
the reins of government. Facts are
stubborn things, composed of solid
substances that can be weighed and
seen and felt, and according to Mr..
Gradgrine, are the only things worth
considering. Fancies on the other
hand, are but gossamer webs of the
imagination, unsubstantial as the air
and of no value but for the amuse-
ment of an idle hour.
"Such," says the Columbia Re
cord, ARE the respective equipments
of the Democratic and the Republi-
can parties. The first goes before
the country and points to the ugly
facts for which the second is to
blame the enriching through the
scheme of protection Of the few at
the expense of the many; the long
protected infant industries that
have grown into giant corporations
and trusts that crush, squeeze, rob
defy the laws, buy elections, subsi-
die newspapers and members of
