Should we stop subscriptions

for insinuating that his credit
was not good. Rather than cast
a reflection on the honesty of a
subscriber to pay a small debt, it
is next to a necessity for a home
paper to continue sending the
paper after the time has expired,
1t is not necessary for the city
dailies or Weeklies to follow this
rule, as their subscribers live at |
a distance and are not personal
friends as is the case with a ma
jority of our subscribers. Our

honor to know that we do not
doubt their integrity and contin-

People who have gotten up
early in the morning to see Hal
ley's comet and who have been
enthused over the brightness of
a star in the east, have not yet
found the comet. The bright
star in the east in the morning is
Venus, one of the nearest and
most friendly planetary neigh
bors. 1t has been seen regularly
for so many years that the ages
Of comets could not express. In
fact it is presumed that it might
have been as badly shattered as
comets are now, but it got to-
gether with itself and kept it's
bright and shining light, even up
% this day.
The comet is very dim. Un-
ess the observer has very good
,yesight he might not be able to
Zee the comet at all. 1t is dis
from the other stars
'nly by it's tail-like appendage
md it requires even better sight
o see the tail than to see the
battered body or head of the
omet. The tail is pointed tow
.rd the sun at this time and the
,osition of the comet is at a point
lorth of east and slightly above
he horizon, even at daybreak.-

law and order alone prevented them
from mobilizing and moving like an
army on the fiend with demand for
summary inhiction of the death PEN
atty. 1t was not fear of man that
restrained these good people. And
now bow grievously are they flouted!
The verdict is on its lace a compro-
mise with public opinion, indicating
lack of conviction on the jury's part
as to the guilt Of the prisoner, but
connecting also the lack of courage
on the jurymen's part to find a ver-
dict of acquittal and then go home
and face their outraged neighbors.
(The first trial resulted in a verdirt
of guilty and a sentence Of death. }
Editor Coker frankly says the peo-
pie of Hartsville will not await the
action of the courts should similar
crime be committed there now. This
Is the more striking, because it is no
fireeater who speaks. The very name
Coker stands for high intelligence,
conservatism and a rare degree of
Christian citizenship. Mr.. Coker al
so undoubtedly has the solid backing
of his fellow-townsmen; and Harts-
Vile probably has more of wealth
and education, per capita of white
population, than any other town in
South Carolina.
Mr.. Coker says in concluding his
doubfe-column EDITORIAL
IF Johnson does not deserve the
death penalty-and he does-he
should have been acquitted, and we
are emphatic in saying so. May God
open the eyes Of right-thinking peo
pie to the situation! The crime of
Johnson calls loudly for justice. If
we are told than such a verdict and
such a sentence are in conformity
with the law, then we reply that law
was made for man .and not man for
the law. and we ask for a change of
the law. This Johnson outrage and
the subsequent proceedings find no
parallel in the history Of South Caro-
lima or of any other State.

Ne Tx, o., July 10.-The unex-
pected arrival of Governor Harmon
this afternoon wrought CONSERVATION
among the city and county officials
who are threatened with impeach-
ment as a result of Friday nights
lynching.
Governor Harmon, Adjt Gen. Chas.
A. Weybrecht, Secretary c. w. Long
and Lieut.. Benjamin Chamberlain, of
the Governors staff, arrived at the
county jail in an automobile at 3:15.
The Governor asked to be taken over
the battered Jail, and for thirty min
utes he and his staff examined the
structure minutely, Sheriff William
Llnke explaining in detail every step
of the mob. The Governor personal
ly tested the bars and examined locks,
taking frequent notes.
Following the survey he told Sher-
iff Linke to summon Prosecuting At
torney Phil B. Smythe and Mayor
Herbert Atherton.s On their arrival
the party held a conference, lasting
one hour and thirty minutes.
The Governor and party then left
, for Columbus.
Il will have to take time to consid-
er this matter more thoroughly, and
| any comment I have to make will be
given from my office" the Governor
said.
Sheriff Linke and Mayor Atherton
reluctantly discussed the meeting.

why 1 did not stop the mob by fir

Il told him I was inexperienced in
| mob procedure and did not realize the
| seriousness Of the situation until af-
ter the door had been battered down.
then looked out and saw 500 men
with guns facing me. There were
dozens Of women and childro, in the
| Jail court yard. Had ordered the
boys to fire into the mob the slaugh-
ter would have been frightful and
my family, as we'll as myself and dep
uties, would have been murdered. He
asked me why I did not spirit the boy
away in the afternoon. l told him
l did not realize the danger then. He
asked many other questions"
Mayor Atherton said that Mr.. Har-
! mon had questioned him relative to
the recent alleged non-enforcement
| of the law and his failure to call for
troops when he learned the true sit
| uatiOn. The mayor said:
Il told him that ] was enforcing
the law to the best of any mans abil-
ity, and that after I addressed the
| mob, pleading with them to disperse
| ! went home and went to bed and
thought that they would do likewise. ~
Both officials told the Governor
/ that, despite the fact they had faced
the mob at different times during the
evening, they failed to recognize a
| signle face among the participants.

Governors hurried visit presages his
