THE HONOR IN HOLDING OFFICE

THE honor you get from any office Is
the honor your bring to it" That
would be very fine thing for any one
TO say and it was fine thing for Cole
Blease to say in the first speech he has
made since he was elected Governor of
South Carolina. The speech was made
on German Day in Charleston last
Wednesday, and 1t must have im-
pressed the German Prince Friedrich
Of Schleswig, who was present with
his officers and sailors of the school
ship "Freya." Now, if the new Cover
nor will only remember that there will
be good deal of honor in the way
he leaves the Office after he has served
his term or terms as the case may
he. he will be able to say an equally
good thing: The honor one gets In
leaving office is the honor with which
one has administered the office.
There was still another very good
thing in Mr.. Blease's speech: The
man in the house facing the Battery
Is as mucH CiliHei " 'AiS -
he who dwells in the shadow OF the
Blue Ridge" That was voice that
"the man on the Battery had not
heard from any one in authority in 10.
these many years. and we may take 1T
as a sign ut least that the distemper
of the COS is dying out at last. We
didn't expect it; but it is all the more
gratifying because it is 50 surpris-
ing. 1t is these little touches OF
nature. that ought to make the whole
State kin; 50 that after awhile 1T will
not be asked whether a man is from
the up-country or from the low-coun-
try, but whether he is a South Caro-
