We were delighted at the way that
Senator Appelt of Clarendon stood to
his colors wher assailed by certain
members of the Senate, because he
dared to criticise in an editorial to his
paper, The MANNING TINES, the acts
of some members of the Senate in rep
resenting liquor houses against the
State while serving as Senators for the
State
Mr.. August Kohn, reporting it for
The News and Courier, said it was "a
tempest in teapot" and that some of
those who took exceptions at the arti-
Gle got mad and excited, but that
Senator Appel was the coolest man
in the Senate and refused to retract
or apologize for anything he had writ
ten.
Senator Appelt is right and we ad-
mire him but the more for the stand
he has taken.
AS an editor he has the same right to
to criticise the acts of his fellow Sena-
tors as to criticise any other public
officer. Sam Jones always said, sits

From the amount OF "howl" that has
been heard it does look like Senator
Appelt's stick has hit good many: the
camp has evidently has been set ahre.
The advertisement to the world which
Saturdays edition of The State makes
OF the virtue in our legislative halls is
not one to make the breast Of the aver
age South Carolinian swell with pride.
The spectacle of one of our senators
using the columns of his paper for plac-
ing before his people the situation,
pleading before their support in the
fight for betterment in the moral
status of our time, and the Outburst
that comes from some OF our law-mak-
ers, is heartrending. Has the time
cone when each of US must 60 about
like the sandwich man, with label in
front and one in the rear? Is it possible
that 50 many of those to whom the clSl-
Zens OF the State of South Carolina
have done honor, have allowed them
selves to become so entangled by cir.
cumstances which look suspicious that
they must cry out for vindication be-
fore they are called into the court o!
the people to answer charges? If such
is the case, the hour Of shame has
come to our State. She who has furn.
ished the world examples of brilliant
statesmen. men borned in purity, rear.
ed in moral rectitude, schooled in cul'
tured gentility: must hide her face.
1t is an acknowledged fact, accepted
of all men, that no one is expected tc
defend himself until he is attacked. In
the meantime it is his duty to lend q
helping hand to detect crime and bring
to the bar of justice those responsible
for breaches OF the law. The same
rule will apply to each and every situa-
tion in life, public as well as private.
The commission appointed to wind
up the affairs of the dispensary is,
take it, for the purpose of collecting
the honest dues to the State, paying
the States honest debts and to bring
to Justice those who have despoiled the
State, in their transactions; the legls.

is to form his opinion by wh". he reads

up his mind that there is a great deal
of rottenness in the place the State has
right to expct great deal of ability:
integrity and vir5ue. Has South Car,
lima today got all of the last named
values that she has right to have IL
her legislative halls? Only few have
answered to the swipe Of the stick Of
Clarendon's senator, and it is possible
that some of them have done so through
i'll advice or sympathy of a kind. Verify
the dispensary has brought with it and
left with US its full quota OF sin and
shame.
Clarendon has no reason to be
ashamed of her senator. My respects

ALASKA PRESS GOSSIP.

Juneau Dispatch. Seattle Times is becoming ridiculous by the continued publication of Corson cam paign telegrams purporting to be from different towns visited by the Seattle candidate and expressing the senti-
 ment of the citizens. At Juneau the Corson meeting was fzzle. A call
 was made for signatures for Corson club but no one responded. The Se- attle spirit was too much for the vot- CTS. At Skagway one democratic an- remained after the meeting to shake hands with Corson supposing him to be an anti. At Fairbanks about four hundred people turned out and looked over Corson to see what the Butler lobby was trying to send to congress. The Se- attle Times had special messages from all these points among them being one that "Corson feared landslide. y The truth of the matter is that Roman has Corson beat to finish in the del. egate race and the Corson people know 1t. The Seattle spirit, faith- ful to the last, continues to print specials from the Corsor press agent.

AMENABLE TO OPINION.

Food for thought relative to the injunction plank in the Chicago plat form and similar declaration at Denver is found in railroad rate case pending in Minnesota. Con- plaint was made some time ago to the interstate commerce commission to the effect that the freight rates on cattle to Chicago were too high. The commisson investigated and or dered the charge for transferring cars over the tracks of the Union Stockyards company reduced from S2 to $l. It was admitted that the charge considered by itself was not too high, but it was found that the transportation charge to the city and the transfer charges added together were too much.
 An appeal from this decision was taken to the courts and three federal judges sitting at St. Paul agreed that the transfer charges and the transportation charge should each be considered by itself, and that the transfer charge considered separately had been made unreasonably low. They restrained the enforcement of the commissions report order, pend- ing further action by the court.
 It's to the law governing injunctions, in such cases that attention is being called. The provision of the Act is as follows:
 "Provided, that no injunction interlocutory order or decree suspend ing or restraining the enforcement of an order of the commission shall be granted except on hearing not less than five sdays notice to the commis- sion. An appeal may be taken from an introductory order or decree grant, ing or continuing an injunction in any suit, but shall be only to the Supreme Court of the United States"
 When this provlson was pending in the United States Senate the power of COuST6SS u llullU luC CQulUy pOWOAo of the courts to any extent whatever was vigorously debated, and even after the bill was passed it was questioned whether at the very first opportunity the courts would not declare this provision invalid. The question may not be settled, but it's to be noticed that in the case under con- sideration the court followed the law laid down in the statute. The rules are practically the same as are asked for in labor cases. They call for hear ing in labor cases. before an injunction is issued and reasonable notice to the party affected. The attitude of, the court is significant and its willingness to follow rules laid down by congress shows that judges are amenable to a reasonable public opinion.

 A Fairbanks special to the Nome Nugget says: '.'One of the strange political occurrences of recent times here was the appearance of an edi- torial in the local labor paper which alluded in very friendly manner towards John Roman, the democratic cndidate for congress. This editorial is not taken to mean that the labor party will support Roman by any means, but it is regarded as sign ol the unsettled condition of the unions in the matter. There appears to be only one thing certain at the present time and that is that the mine work. CTS are totally opposed to supporting Tom Gale. He has completely lost their confidence, and his supporters amongst them are a neglible quantity

The reason that Mir. Gale gives for not running this fall is an exceeding ly poor one. In the first place, had Mir. Gale been true Alaskan-one who makes his home in Alaska and not in Wisconsin-he would at this time be here, if illness had occurred in his family-for a mans family usu- ally are where he lives. This thing of selecting non-residents to represent Alaska serves as weak prop for those shouters for ''home rule." If it is impossible at this time to get dele- gate in congress who is an Alaskan to represent us, how is it going to be possible to scrape up the army of of- flee holders that would be necessary were we to have ''home rule"?-Jun- eau Record. /
 A point certainly well taken so far as it applies to Mir. Gale, but why not apply the suggestion to the other can didate nominated by the double bar reled convention held here in Ketch- ikan last May? About how will Mir. Corson size up under the Records s rule of measurement?

IN THE GLOAMING.
(By James J. Doyle)

By James J. DOyle) Come, cuddle your head on my shoul-
 der, dear
 Your head like the golden rod And we'll go sailing away from here To the beautiful land of Nod; Away from lfe's hurry and furry, Away from earth shadow and gloom, We will float off together to world
 of fair weather
 Where roses are always in bloom. Just shut your eyes and fold your
 hands,
 Your hands like the leaves of the rose, And we'll go sailing to those. fair
 lands
 That never an atlas shows. On the north and the west they are
 bounded by rest, On the south and the east by dreams :: 'Tis the country ideal where nothing
 is real,
 But everything only seems. at Just drop the curtains of your dear
 eyes,
 Your eyes like the bright blue-bell, And VII sail under star-lit skies To the land where the fairies dwell. Down the river of sleep, our bark
 will sweep,
 Till it reaches that magical isle ' Which no man has seen, but where
 all have been,
 And there we'll pause while I will croon you song as we float
 along
 To that shore that is blessed of God; Then ho! for that fair land, The beautiful land of Nod'

MAINE AND ITS FORESTS.

Maine, like Michigan, has long been
 famous as 8 pine tree state, but un- like Michiman it continues to raise pine forests. In Maine forests are not SO often skinned and the land left to become desert they are treated as continuing crops. There are forests in Maine which have yielded lumber for more than century and these for ests are today better forests than they were in the beginning.
 One of the reasons for the difference between Maine and Michigan is indi- cated by question asked by the su- preme court of the state senate, which is considering forest legislation. The court has just rendered decision to the effect that the legislature has a constitutional right to pass laws regu- lating the cutting of timber on pri- vate lands if the cutting is liable to be detrimental to the public welfare. This decision refers especially to small timber which Is needed to form for est cover and so conserve water and prevent floods and soil erosion. The court states definitely that such regu- lations cannot be construed as taking private property for public use and that the state cannot be made to pay for young growth which 1t may forbid the owner tO cut.
 The senate in asking its question said that 1t had no thought of enact ing g law which would prevent clear ing land for agricultural purposes, but simply one which would prevent strip ping land of its forest cover when Iuch action would cause general in- jury. The next Michigan lsgislatpr :.

FINE FOR THE EDITOR.

A paper in good sized town in Michigan recently published this item: "The business man of this town who is in the habit of hugging his typewriter had better quit or we will publish his name." The next day thirty seven business men called at the office, paid up their subscrip- tions and left behind them thirty seven columns of advertising and told the editor not to pay any attention to foolish stories.
