MIR. DOMINICK'S CARD.

The communication Of Mr.. Harry W"
Dominick, published in The Herald
and News today, which is called forth
from Mr.. Dominick as a member OF
of the board of health, in response to
an editorial in the last issue of this
paper, Is in commendable tone, in that
il evidences a spirit of willingness to
correct whatever evils may be point
ed out. AS to Mr.. Dominick's fear
that The Herald and News has pub
lished broadcast something that may
do Newberry hurt when the facts were
not sufficient to justify the pub1ica-
ton, we think the record Of this news
paper in the endeavor to aid in the
progress and development of the CON-
munity along all lines will bear us
out in the assertion that The Herald
and News ever has the good of New
berry at heart, and if something was
published to the world which was not
to Newberry's credit, it was only be-
cause We believed it necessary in Or
der to bring about an awakening in
Newberry. And we believed then and
still believe the facts justified it.
We have no way of knowing exactly
how many cases of typhoid fever
there are in Newberry. But even the
seven cases which have been officially
reported to the board Of health, are
3ust seven too many, as Mr.. Donfnick
himself says, and if better sanitary
conditions would prevent even seven
cases, then better sanitary conditions
would be we'll worth striving for.
We are gratifed in the activity
which the board of health is now Civ
ing evidence of. No one will appreciate
the efforts of the board more than The
Herald and News.
AS to Mr.. Dominick's request for
"specializations" instead of general
ization,'' no particular localities were
named because if the matter could be
remedied without dealing in Especial
ization" in the public prints, the very
argument which Mr. Dominick adyan-
ces would urge that course. We are
still convinced a thorough inspection
and consideration of health conditions
of the city at the time the article in
question was written would have sub
stantiated every word OF it. We trust
| that conditions have already improved,
and will continue to improve.
We desire to be among the first to
congratulate the board Of health upon
the steps which it is now taking. It
is never too late to do good.

WHY NOT A SQUARE DEAL?

saying that the governor should be
impeached, and that the Edgefeld
delegation would vote for his i'm
peachment. The Journal says that it
is satisfied that the Greenwood dele
cation would vote the same way, ex-
cept possibly one member.
We have not seen any specific
charge of malfeasance which any OF
these papers that are crying aloud for
Impeachment, has brought against the
governor. We are not intending, at
this time, to defend him. We desire to
quote just one paragraph from the
Journal as an illustration of the
method of editorial attack. The Jour-
nal says: "Mr. Blease should prove
that the charges made against him by
Col. Fielder are false, or he should be
made to step down and out"
This is an entirely new proposition
of law in this country. We have al
ways understood that even the vilest
criminal who was charged with crime
was presumed by the court to be in
nocent until he was proved guilty. 1t
seems that the Journal would shift
the burden of proof, change the law
and make the accused establish his
Innocence.
Suppose, for the sake of argument,
that the Greenwood Index should
charge the Journal with any of the
crimes in the catalogue of crimes.
Would the Journal feel that the bur-
den of establishing it's innocence was
upon it's shoulders, and if it failed to
do so that it should be condemned by
the community, or would it feel that
it was the duty of the one making the
charge to establish the facts; as charg-
ed?
We are not undertaking to defend
Governor Blease-as we say, We have
seen no specific charge of nalfesance
but we do think that such statements
as this quoted from the Journal are
absolutely and entirely unfair. They
are the same old charges We have
heard for several years and the people
have already passed upon them. The
only difference being they come from
Fielder, an adept in the use of invec-
tive. But they come from him only
after he is charged with trying to cor
rupt a State official and the publica-
ton of Felder's letters.
There is no reason why newspapers
should not deal fairly and honestly
with public men even if they do not
endorse their public and official acts.
Suppose Governor Blease did re-
move the winding up dispensary COM
mission, he had the right Under the
law to do so. Suppose he does not
refer petitions for pardon to the par
doning board, the responsibility, at
last, for granting a pardon rests upon
the governor and not upon the board
of pardons.
When the newspapers talk about
! impeachment, they should, at least,
have some specific charge Of malfeas-
ance in office which they can substan-
Ciate by the facts.
