Taft and the South.

President-elect Taft is making fine
headway in the affections of the people
of the South. His utterances on his pol
icy of filling offices in the South have
excited much comment. Mr.. Taft does
not. we take it, hope or intend to at
tempt to buy his way with federal pat
ronage. He simply wants the people OF
this section to feel that it is as much a
part of the national government as any
other section and that it is entitled to
the same careful consideration in the
appointment of officers as any other
section. In other words, the federal
Offices in the South are nos to be filed
with any sort of a man who happens to
be o Republican. We shall cling to our
political faith as strongly as ever. but
this will not prevent our adniring Mr..
Taft as the sensible, big-hearted presi-
dent of the whole country.-Greenwood
Index.

Goods Roads Sentiment.

The most significant demonstration OF
the growth OF the sentiment for good
roads was found in the enthusiastic
meeting slel:i here on Tuesday of the
Good Roads Association. Most OF the
counties were well represented, and
there was manifested u height OF en-
thusiasm anG Il fertility OF suggestion
never before experienced.
II was the sentiment OF the speakers
that good roads are more thai many
other things on which large sums are
expended. and that both the State and
the counties should make large appro-
priations to this work of road improve
mert. And there is TO be no halt az 4
simple expression. Legislators will be
labored with and plainly advised that
failure to provide the means for road
building will beregarded as failure OF a
public duty and will be treated accord
ingly. Great pressure IS TO be brought
to bear on the Genera! Assembly no" IN
session, to induce it to enact such laws
as shall insure GOOD roads throughout
the whole State.
It has taken years of persistent work
by a few to bring public opinion to this
degree OF iusistence, but the result OF
their labors has been achieved, and the
faster building of good highways is now
an absolute certainty. Time and again
it has been demonstrated that what the
people really want they can always get,
and good roads may be classed among
the things that the people are deter
mined to have. A member OF the Spar
tanburg delegation voiced this deter
mination when he said they wanted
s5oO.00O for good roads, and If they
couldn't get it this year they would
keep on pressing the matter until they
did get the required amount

Better Pay For Preachers.

For long time it has been said that
preachers as 4 rule were poorly paid,
but this cannot longer be said of many
OF the Methodist ministers in South Car
olina. We noted recently that the pres
lding elder Of the Marion district, Rev.
E. O. Watson. is now being paid i sal
ary of $500 4 year, and he gets fur
nished house free of rent. Many of the
charges in the State are now paying
from sl.400 to 81, 500 year, with par
sonage furnished. Sc it begins to look
like preaching is not such u bad job
after all, although few men seem to be
going into the ministry these days. We
are glad to see this tendency to pay
preachers higher salaries. They are
worth every cent they get and more
