Taft Goes on q Trip.

President Taft having given out
the itinerary for his thirteen thous-
and mile journey, which he begins
.:exi Friday, local reception commit
tees all along the line Of the trip may
now remove the moth balls from
frock coats, and borrow their high
hats. They can also get all the salts
faction possible from rehearsing
speeches that will be drowned out by
the uproar of crowd out to see, q
real live president. Let the welcom-
ing committees beware how they as
sumo dignities with which they are
not familiar. Well do we recall how
in a not distant city distinguished
guest was once received.
Few of the men named to escort
him to picnic ground had ever worn
plug hat" Blossoming out in this
unaccustomed state, they were total
II unable to gauge the lofty sweep Of
the high head gear. Soou the CLOS
sv tiles were hopelessly dentcd by un-
forseen contact with limbs of trees
and low doorways. The presidential
custom of swinging around the cir
Gle is derided as a mere building Of
political fences. Yet even our re-
vered George Washington descend
ed from his pedestal five months af
ter inauguration for a .longe journey
out to meet the every day people.
When President Monroe took his
four months trip in day of no tel
egraphs and slow mails, he got all
out of touch with public business.
The newspapers roasted him we'll for
neglect of his work. They might have
felt better had he not offended ideas
of Jefersonian simplicity by ascend
ing the Delaware river in boat lined
with crimson velvet, propelled by
carsmen in white trousers and sleeves
and crimson vests. When he got to
New Hampshire tie governor refused
TO receive him, and the party found
their way around alone by the guide
boards.
To many onlookers, the hurried
and stereotyped speeches from rear
car platforms, the meaningless tasks
of handshaking, the time spent in
useless contemplation Of freight yards
and cross ties, make the journey an
irrational one. But no doubt the
president gets his chance to talk with
those in each locality who represent
the conscience and brains or 1nut
community. At Washington he sees
mostly the political class, who motor
iously misrepresent the general pub
lie pulse. On the road he will hear
things worth listening to from men
whose time is too valuable for hang
ing around congressional lobbes.

strange thing about it is that they
have had no trouble In getting weak
minded people to believe them and
pay the money. And yet this is the
twentieth century with Its boasted
intelligence and civilization, and the
easy marks were people Of means and,
-. >osedly of culture. Apparently
some people like to be victimized.
Anyway they show credulity and
superstition which one would scarce
lv expect to find outside the realm
of paganism. Barnum, who was said
to be the biggest humbug that ever
lived, use to say that fool was born
every minute, and it was the duty of
some one to fool them or they would
be disappointed.

Calls the Governors Bluff.

While in Charleston recently Gov
ernor Blease announced that he was
sure of reelection, it made 10 differ
ence who opposed him. He made
light of the reported candi-
dacy for Governor Of Chief Justice
Ira B. Jones, and said he had better
sense than resign his office to run for
Governor. Gov. Blease went on to
say that should Chief Justice Jones
resign and run against him for Gov
ernor after the election Chief JUS
tice would be "tne statesman with
out job" BY resigning his high Of
fee and announcing that he would be
candidate for Governor next year
Chief Justice Jones calls Governor
Blease's bluff, much to that gentle
mans surprise no doubt.
The action of Chief Justice Jones
in resigning and entering the Gov
ernor's race is a general surprise. 1t
was not considered likely that he
would relinquish the highest judicial
office in the State, of which he may
have been sure. for life, at salary
equal to that Of the governor, in or
der to become candidate for COVER
nor, especially in the face Of Cover
nor Blease's threat to make him
statesman without a job" if he dared
to be so presumptious as to aspire to
the governorsiip of the State. By his
action the Chief Justice has given
Governor Blease notice that he is
willing to- put the issue to test with
him before the people of the State.
The result will be known after the
primary next year. $500
1t is universally considered in oplit-
ic..l circles that Chief Justice Jones at
any- time would make most formi-
H. Bile, If not an invincibie, candidate
for any Office In the State. He is
product of the reform movement, one
of the ablest and most aggressive
leaders of the warm political fights Of
the early '90's, but his career on the
supreme be lch has beer highly dis
tingu:shed for fairness and judicial
integrity no less than for scholarship,
learning and ability. The Chief JUS
tice has always been political and
personal friend of Senator Till
man and while the Senator may take
no part in the campaign for Cover
nor it is very likely that his moral
support will be given the Chief JUS
tice in the race. This is our opinion
based. on the friendship of the two
men.
Chief Justice Jones is man Of
most impressive personality; virile,
aggressive, alert and absolutely fear
less. Quick in debate, resourceful,
thoroughly familiar with South Car
oh1a affairs, he would at any time
and against any opposition be diff
cult man to handle on the stump, and
should Governor Blease stick to his
determination to offer for reelection
next year the candidacy of Chief JUS
tice Jones makes it certain that there
will be at least one antagonist able to
cope with the governor, whose stump
speaking ability is highly regarded
by his friends The race is going to
be hotly contested on both sides, and
Governor Biease is going to have all
he can do to sustain his boast that he
would be elected, if he does so at all.
