Why NOT BE FAIR?

Governor Blease delivered an
address in Spartanburg county
last week to a large assembly Of
people, and the Herald of Spar
tanburg owned it is said, by the
Gonzales of Columbia has q re-
port of the speech. which is re-
produced in The State. We are
not in position to say whether
or not the speech reported in Con
zales, Spartanburg newspaper is
correct or garbled but we can say
if the speech as published in the
Spartanburg newspaper is any
way near correct then the COVER
nor of tlis State is a fit sub.
iect for the State hospital for
the insane, there are expressions
in that reported speech which
no sane or sober man would ut
ter, ,and we do not believe Cover
nor Blease is crazy: therefore, we
are inclined to think the reporter
gave him a raw deal by garbling
his utterances. TO snatch a SEN
tence here and there from a
speech and connect them together
would give an exact statement Of
words used, but in their diScon-
nected state would make the
speaker say things he never
dreamed of saying. and such a re.
port would bedastardly. Why the
holy bible Can be so garbled as to
make it indecent to read, and it IS
done too, by a class OF sacrelig
ious writer's in their attempts at
ridicule and misrepresentation. so
too, with a prejudiced newspaper
reporter, to warm up to his en-
ployer, whom he knows hates the
governor as the devil hates holy
water. he picks sentences from
the governors speech: puts them
together in order that be may de
light his employer by holding the
governor up to scorn.
The governor also spoke in Or
angeburg, and another newspa-
per reporter for another news
paper said the speech wasl strong
presentation of his sstewardshipas

WILL RETHUNE HANG?

According to the Sunday News,
au effort is being made to get
Governor Blease to interfere in
the sentence of death which mas
been pronounced by the court in
the case Of Willie Bethune, who
killed Mr. G. B. Minis. The day
fixed for the execution Of Bethune
is next Friday. Just what action
the governor Will take in this case
is unknown, but from the state
ment in the Sunday paper 1t
seems that the trial Judge, who
was Judge Gage. and Judge
Shipp, who last sentenced Be
thune. have written letters to the
governor recommending elem
ency. 1t is strange to US why d

to death, aud then l;itel. without

to the governor that he soften the
sentence imposed. II the trial

their fellow. members. Consequently
when the time came for adoption, the
members were virtually ready to vote
intelllgently without the necessity OF
much discussion. though despite this
preparation there was full discussion on
all important books.
The undersigned members submit,
therefore, that with this experience aud
this study of the books, it is reasonable
to conclude that their individual judg-
ment as to the merits of the books sub
mitted deserves the same consideration,
and is just as likely to be correct. as that
of Mr.. Swearingen, and that where a
majority of them were agreed upon
particular book, it is just and rational.
as well as democratic, To assume that
this majority opinion was more likely
correct than that OF Mr.. Swearingen or
that OF any minority which included
Mr.. Swearingen.
THE so-CALIED SECRET BALLOT.
It is unthinka ole that Superintendent
Swearingen intended in the slightest
degree TO impugn or make insinuatlon
against the integrity Of the members OF
the Board. either Individually or co'lec-
lively. Indeed we have his assurance
that he did not: yet that CONSTRUCTION
has been put upon his protest and es-
pecially upon his reference to a secret
ballot. Hence we are at a loss to under
stand why, when he perceived that the
newspapers so construed his protest, he
did not, in justice to himself aud IN JUS
tice to the Board, Immediately publish
a disclaimer of any such intention.
This ballot, it is due TO say. was not
secret in the sense that any members
vote was concealed. It is due to say.
was not secret in the sense that any
members vote was concealed. 1t is due
to say. further, that not only was the
method based upon the precedent OF the
adoption of five years ago, but, 10 the
agreement to adopt the impersonal vote,
it was distinctly stated that, if in the
voting any member desired TO put on
record anything about the vote or adop-
tion, he had the right to do so.
In the case of most of the books, es-
pecially of the more important ones,
here was always preliminary discus
sion which revealed whether there was
any decided differences of opinion
among the members. Some member
then put particular book in nomina-
ton. There was yet fuller discussion,
including comparisons with such other
books as individual members thought
worthy of mention. An open individual
vote was then taken. Thus the whole
Board knew how each member voted.

a "a oranh which said that Gov.

paragraph which said that Gov
ernor Blease delivered practical
ly the same speech he did at
Spartanburg. What are the read
ers of the newspapers to gather
from this conflict OF opinion: Is
it not !; reasonable suppositlon,
when it is known there is a pref
udiee with one newspaper, and no
reason to think there is any ia.
voritism with the other, that the
prejudlced newspaper misrepre
seuted the governor in reporting
his speech at Sparcanburg when
it reported utterances as would
make a drunken or an insane
man hesitate to say privately even
not to say in a public speech.
It is a notorious fact The Co.
lumhia State is very unfriendly
towards Governor Blease, it man
ifested this disposition before he
became governor and it has never
let up. therefore its influence with
the masses must necessarily be
weakened, especially SO, when
the masses believe that its per
soual prejudice permeates its ed
itol'ial and its news columns in
matters which effect the present
governor. When the reported
speech of Governor Blease at
Spartanburg was made in a Con
zales owned newspaper and re.
produced N the Columbia edition,
it became questioned at once. and
those who questioned it have the
suspicion that the report as 1t ap-
peared was made with a deliber
ate purpose of trying to injure
the governor influence with the
masses. We believe The State
and other enemies of the COVER
nor can accomplish a greater
success by being fair, even to
those their editor hates.

The Missionary a Puzzle.

To the untutored Cinnamon the
presence of the missionary is puzzle.
They simply cannot imagine human
beings exiling themselves from their
native land for the love Of men on the
other side of the globe. So they frame
sundry theories to explain the thing
to themselves. One theory is that the
missionaries are secret political agents
bent on gaining an influence over the
Chinese and then swaying them to the
advantage of their respective govern
ments. Only Of late have the natives
come to realize that the strangers are
not sent by their governments. but by
religious groups. According to another
theory. China is so excellent and re-
Rowned that the red haired barbarians

posed to be prompted by the desire to
acquire merit--Century.

emphatic terms that you are strong,
healthy and we'll. Do this for a few
minutes every evening, and. even If
this is not how you actually feel, main
tain by your physical and mental at
titude that it is your condition. and
you will soon find that it becomes 50

lies" This was the advice given by

after all this, to write letters urg-
ing the governor to do that which
the trial judge could have done,
seems to US like shirking duty and
shifting the responsibil;tyonsome
one else. Our position is simply
this, if Bethune is guilty of mur-
der he should be hanged, if his
crime is manslaughter, he should
go to the penitentiary, if innocent
then he should be free. On the
trial the Judge was in a better po-
sltion to know whether or not the
verdict Of the jury was warranted
by the evidence, if it was, then he
should not now interfere, it was
not, then and there, he should
have exercised his power for
mercy and justice.
It is these delays and these ex-
asperating changes tnat cause
people to do rash things. The
family of the deceased Minis, is a
large one. and the fact that they
controlled their feelings to let the
law avenge the death of their low
ed one: is credita BILE to their high
sense of good citizenship; under
much less provocatjon, the law
has been disregarded and swift
punishment visited upon the one
WHO so grlevously offended, but
not so in this case. the Minis con-
nection had confidence in the JUS
tica of the law, and although there
were many dissappointments,
they patiently awaited the result;
when the trial Judge who heard
the evidence, saw the accused and
listened to the arguments, recelv-
ed the verdict Of the jury, he
aquiesed in their verdict when
he delivered the sentence Of the
laws extreme penalty, had he at
that time said the verdict was too
severe, set It aside and ordered a
new trial: the relatives and
friends Of the deceased would
have credited the judge with a
conscientious discharge Of duty.
and, although they may have
been disappointed, they would
have been contented, now how.
ever, it is different: the accused
was tried: convicted and sentenc-
ed. the case was taken to the
highest court. again tried. and
convicted, and resentenced, and
just on the eve of the execution
Of the law, the very Judge who
heard the case. and delivered the
death penalty, without any after
discovered evidence, asks the
governor TO be merciful and ex-
ercise his power Of clemency.
