they win admit and lament this de-

separate them from a realm OF whose
glories they know from trustworthy

are not honest with themselves, aver

to be fable and those who claim its
franchise to be self deluded, finding
realities in what are but vain imagin-

COUNTY ENGINEER.

The county board Of commissioners
met Yesterday to consider applications
for the position Of county engineer IN
response to their recent advertisement.
There were eight applications as fol-
lows:
C. W. Requarth, A. L. Cornell j. "
Phillip, r. c. Marshall, w. l.. Law, w.
M. l.. Hemphill, w. r. Pinckney, j. L.
Kelly, E. L. Sanders.
As construed by members OF the
board and by most of the engineers, the
law requires that the engineer must
complete surveys and blue print pro-
files Of all the public roads in the coun-
ty, together with plans and specitica-
tions for working the same. all within
a year from July l, 1908.
There are in the county between 800
and 1000 miles Of public roads. AS
il would be a manifest impossibility for
any one man to complete profiles of all
of them within a year, there was doubt
as to just what the commissioners
would require. Consequently the pro-
posals submitted varied considerably.
Some of the bidders proposed to give
their personal services at so much a
month, with the understanding that
they would give the work in hand their
conscientious attention and accomplish
as much as could be reasonably expect
ed. They made it clear however, that
they would not undertake, singlehanded
and alone to turn over the profles of
all the roads in the county within the
time specified.

AT NINETY-NlNE ISLAND.

The big development work COM
menced by the Southern Power COM
pany at Ninety Nine Island about two
years ago, continues at standstill,
hardly lick of work having been
struck since about the first Of last No
vember.
The suspension of operations in No
vember was presumably due to the
panic Of last fall. Up to that time the
company's expenditures in work and
material aggregated considerably over
half million dollars; but since then
practically everything has been neg
lected and the losses have been tre-
mondous.
At the present time the scene Of last
summers activity is almost deserted.
The big hotel was completed as
were also several handsome cottages;
but now with the exception Of Resident
Engineer Cornell and family and a
caretaker at the hotel, the place is de-
serted. There is an occasional visitor
in the person Of some friend Of Mr..
or Mrs. Cornell or the people in charge
of the hotel, and sometimes fishing
party; but otherwise the place is lone
ly.
AS to what the intentions Of the
Southern Power company are, nobody
seems to know. 1t is hardly reason
able to suppose that so many thousands
of dollars will be allowed to go to
waste unless there is no possible way
to prevent it; but still there seems to
be no indications Of an early resump-
ton of operations.

Nominate Your Candidate.

It is not uncommon to hear people
complain, that although there are
number of candidates out for various
offices, there is nobody in sight for
whom they care to vote.
There is no good ground for such a
complaint-not in this free and demo-
cratic country, and under party rules
that are as broad and liberal as those
which govern the primary.
1t may be fact that there is some
semblance of a political machine in
the county. 1t is possible that there
are several machines. But as we see
it, they do not amount to great deal.
Not one of them is half as big as the
whole people Of York county.
All that is necessary for anybody to
nominate a candidate is to agree upon
a man and put him in the race. either
by announcing his name in neWspa-
per or otherwise making his candidacy
known, and all that is necessary to
elect, him, provided he is an acceptable
man, is to make known the reasons
why he is especially suitable.
The voters have no objection to the
number of candidates who may enter
the field. On the contrary, the disin-
terested element, and it is by far the
largest and most powerful portion OF
our citizenship, holds to the idea OF
the more the merrier."
If there is anybody who is dissatis-
fled with the situation as it now stands,
there should be no complaint. The
race is free and open. Anybody has
right to enter and nobody has a right
to complain.

LAW OF THE PRIMARY.

The following act Of the general as
sembly, approved March 6, 1905, is OF
especial and particular interest to all
candidates in the present primary cam
paign:
Section /. Be it enacted by the gen.
eral assembly Of South Carolina: AT
or before every political primary cleo
ton held by any political party, organ
iZation or association, for the purpose
of choosing candidates for office, or the
election of delegates to conventions, In
this state, any person who shall, by
threats or any other form Of intimida-
ton, or by the payment, delivery or
promise Of money, or other article OF
value, procure or offer, promise or en-
deavor to procure, another to vote for
or against any particular candidate In
such election, or who shall, for such
consideration, offer to so vote, shall be
guilty Of a misdemeanor.
Sec. 2. Every candidate offering for
election, under the provisions OF sec
ton /, shall make the following pledge
and file the same with the clerk of
the court of common pleas for the
county in which he Is candidate, un-
less he should be a candidate in more
than one county, in which case he shall
file same with the secretary Of state
before he shall enter upon his cam
paign, to wit: I, the undersigned ......
Of the county of ...... and state of
South Carolina, candidate for the office
of ..., hereby pledge that l will
not give nor spend money, or use in
toxicating liquors for the purpose of
obtaining or influencing votes, and
that I shall, at the conclusion of the
campaign and before the primary elec-
ton, render to the clerk Of court or
(secretary Of state as hereinbefore
provided) under oath, an itemiZed
statement Of all moneys spent or pro-
vided by me during the campaign for
campaign purposes up to that time.
and I further pledge that I will, i'm
mediately after the primary election
or elections that / am candidate In,
render an itemized statement, under
oath, showing all further moneys
spent or provided by me in said cleo
tion: Provided, That failure to COM
ply with this provision shall render
such election null and void in so far
as the candidate who fails to file the
statement herein required, but shall not
affect the validity of the election of any
candidate complying with this section:
And provided further That such Item
lied statement and pledge shall be
open to public inspection at all times.
Sec. 8. That any violation Of the
provisions of this act shall be mis-
demeanor; and any person, upon con-
yiction thereof, shall be fined not less
than 500 nor more than $500, or be
imprisoned at hard labor for not less
than one month nor more than six
months, or both fine and imprison-
ment, in the discretion of the court

rage. But it is a fact also that in the
arose between Mr.. Cleveland and his
party, time proved that the president
was right; that had he acted otherwise
the result would have been little short
of ruin for the country.
When it is considered that in each
case at issue, the president could have
yielded to the judgment Of party lead
ers and shared the consequences With
out individual loss or responsibility, the
high minded nobility and great wis
dom of the man is all the more appar-
ent.
But Mr.. Cleveland has had the sat-
isfaction of seeing his brave, earnest
work vindicated in every particular,
and of winning acknowledgment OF
error on the part of many Of his most
honest opponents.
Having finished his task and finish
ed it so well, there could be but one
regret in dying and that, the neces-
sity of leaving the beloved wife and
children who blessed his earthly home.

against the government. Russians
residing in the province quickly found
it desirable to get beyond reach of the
natives, from whom there was no pro-
lection. In Teheran the situation has
been equally OminOus, and the Rus
sian commercial agent was recently
made the victim of a murderous as
sault. Thus far the shah has failed to
keep his promise to dismiss the reac-
tionaries from his court, and the par
lament is distrustful of his purposes,
while the cabinet has lately been re-
organized on account of the failure to
secure money to satisfy the large ar
rears of pay due to officials and SOL
dierS.

may have them renewed by merely ex-

through the usual inquisiticn.
Miss Mary T. Nance made an inter-

dience included a number of people of

law and real estate office to the room
next door to the First National Bank,

THIS paragraph from the Columbia
correspondence of the Charlotte OBJ
server seems to correctly describe the
attitude of the leading daily papers of
the state, the News and Courier and
the Columbia State to the state cam
paign meetings:
For the first time since the Tillman
movement started some twenty years
ago. the leading daily newspapers OF
the state are refusing to have special
man following the meetings. BY gen
eral consent they are "cOvering' the
meetings through their local cores
pOndentS. who are instructed to cut
it short" The two leading daily pa
pers have been accustomed to spend
about $4,000 apiece to lay this sort
of stuff before their readers. The ar
rangement this year is not generally
disappointing to the readers of the pa
pers. but the politicians and their i'm
mediate partiSanS are vigorously kick
ing; but this is not likely to force any
change of policy. unless the meetings
become sensational.
