The News and Courier Of Fri.
day referring to the comments OF
The TINES on the alleged pap
ding of the registration boook
for the city election, asks if we
think it altogether fair in US to
say "that those in control of the
election machinery should be
held responsible. . Who should
be held responsible, if not
those in control of the elec-
ton machinery? The registra-
ton officers are appointed by
those In authority, and they
should see to it that the condi.
tions complained Of did not exist.
True, the order Of the court came
at very unfortunate hour, and
we are astonished that so careful
a Judge, and so good a lawyer
as Judge Memminger should
have signed such an important
order without having given it
thorough consideration. His
statement in connection with his
revoking order, while explain
ing how he was led into the
error, does not remedy the
wrong done, and will have the
effect of intensifying the dis
appointment Of the Judges
friends.

The Texas senator Joseph Wei
don Bailey has announced that he
will not stand for reelection, and
it is said that when he retlres be
will not return to Texas but will
practice law in New York, we
wonder if this announcement will
have any effect upon the cotton
market? We have regarded
Bailey of Texas. ever since we
heard his address before the
South Carolina general assem-.
bly,, the most over-rated r N
public life, and while he is Start
he lacks a whole lot of being d
statesman. Texas will lose moth
ing by her senator's determina-
tion unless that State replaces
Bailey with another just like him.

The grand jury of Richland
county has investigated the con-
ditions at the penitentiary hos
.iery mill, and find the Institution
in a sanitary condition. Now it
remains to be seen what the gov
ernor will do about it. He has
contended that the mill is a verl-
table death trap, and demanded
OF the penitentiary directors to
close it up, even went so far, as to
intimate that if they did act to
relieve the conditions, be would
do so himself. We cannot believe
that Governor Blease will act
hastily in this matter, if our un-
derstanding is correct the only
way that he can relieve the coI-
ditions complained Of lies in the
exercise Of his pardoning power,
and this would be most unfortu-
nate. did he, to carry out his in.
dividual ideas about the unsani-
tary condition at this mill, force
the closing by pardoning the
prisoners.

WORKING FRIENDSHIP over TIME.

WHAT'S: the matter with his ex-
eellency the goverpocs Has he
gone dafy on the subject OF
standing by his friends? Ac-
cording to a letter from him to
Senator Sullivan of Anderson,
who recommended a James
Walter Kelly to be appointed a
Notary Public, the governor re-
quires the senator to personally
certify That Mr.. Kelly is friend
Of his Cthe governor) before he
viii commission him. We are
afraid the governor has his Office
and some Of his fraternal orders
mixed, for there is nothing in the
law which requires an applicant
for an appointive Office to be a
friend Of the appointing power,
but there is a law which requires
the recommendation Of two mem
bers Of a county delegation to an
application for a notary public
commission. Governor Blease's
action in this matter is silly.

Chief Justice Jones will be a
candidate in the primary for
governor. The Judge has sent
his resignation as Chief Justice
to Governor Blease to take effect
January 9th. Timeing the date for
his resignation to take effect for
the opening of the general as.
sembly means that the governor
will not have the appointing OF a
successor to the Judge, and to
our mind it means also that
Judge Jones has accepted Gov
ernor Blease's banter made re-
Gently. It is rather soon to
know what the effect Of Judge
Jones resignation will have
upon the voters Of the State,
there is no doubt he will make a
most formidable candidate for
the Office Of governor, but when
the two men get before the
voters. neither liking each other
we look forward to one of the
bitterest campaigns the State
has seen since the days of 1890.

The newspapers are making
much ado over the marriage Of
John Jacob Astor to a young
woman, and before the ceremony
was performed he settled upon
his affanced S5000,000 with a
promise OF more in his will.
Whose business is it il the young
woman was willingto sell her
self to the millionaire? However,
there is many a woman who
marries a man for other reasons
than love, and there is nothing
said about it until something
breaks lose, then everybody
knew .sshe did net care for him. :
IF Miss Force gets S50o0,00 to
marry old Astor she certainly
knew how to strike rich bar
gain, and being young she can
later on buy the kind Of a man
she wants, even in South Caro-
lima.

Editor Hemphill, formerly of
South Carolina, is carrying his
political luck to Virginia. In the
recent contest for the United
States senate the Times-Dispatch
opposed both Senators Martin
and Swanson for reelection, but
the senator's won out by a large
majority. The Major played in
similar luck n this State, except
when it came to Charleston's local
politics, then he was with "the
boys" and was happy.

SUMMERTON.

The first whistle o: the cott5s gin
seems TO have been 4 command ior ac-
tion ir the field of business. For Several
weeks now have the gins Of this vicin-
Iity been in operation, but so unfavor-
able TO gathering have been the wealth
er conditions that the usual fall move
ment of business is somewhat delayed.
However, some three or four hundred
bales OF cotton have been ginned in
Summerton SO far this season, which
seems to be pretty fair start In obed-
ience to this Or some other call, spirit
of activity is invading our town; and but
few there are WHO have not fallen in
line. eager to ''get busy in the affairs
of new season. Pleasure and health
seekers have returned home reinforced
with energy and strength for another
years hard work, and with one accord
the instruments of business, education.
and religion have been again set in reg
ular motion.
The Summerton graded school Start
| ed another session this morning under
most suspicious signs. Besides a large
attendance of the pupils, there being
about lis present: the patrons were well
represented, giving promise of their CO.
operation IN the schools work. The
Revs Major and Gordon of the Metho-
dist and Baptist churches respectively,
after conducting the opening devotional
exercises: made a few appropriate re-
marks OF welcome tc the teachers and
admonition to the scholars. Prof. Geo.
(; A. Teasley, OF Bowman, Ca, the newly
elected principal, made short address,
expressive of his hope and intention that
this shall be successful, beneficial and
| pleasant session. Except for this change,
the corps of teachers remains the same
as last year: Misses Ida Scarborough,
Kate Romanstein, Cornelia Plowden,
Leila Norris, Winfield Rankin and
Miss Mabel Harper.
The Presbyterian church OF this
place, which during the summer months
have been without a Pastor has secured
the services of the Rev. W. S. Trimble
OF Hampton, Va, who held his first SER

his coming, the congregation have had
some remodelling done on the Nance,
which will render it more slightly as
well as comfortable.

this week from the mountains OF North
Carolina, and services will be resumed

THERE IS A WAR BREWING.

The European situation does
not seem to clear up very fast,
and it may yet result in a conflict
Of arms between several OF the
monarchal powers. Germany
stands pat with its demands upon
France, and Tallyrand is not IN
clined to give in to the German
demands. IF thisMoroccan trouble
ends in a war between france and
Germany in our opinion, England
will take a hand, and probably
Spain, as these two governments
are interested in Morocco also.
But the effect upon American eS-
ports is the most serious consid.
GRAFTON for us, if a war breaks
out. the exporting Of cotton will
be largely checked because OF the
stopping Of the mills from run
Ming. and the demand for feed
stufs will be greatly Increased
so that the cost Of living in this
country will weigh heavily upon
the wage Garner. tt is to be hop.
ed that war in Europe can be
averted, but should it come then
we look for a considerable drop
in the price Of cotton for a while
least, that there is something
brewing which BODIES evil may be
the cause of the great slump IN
stocks recently, a. looking over
the stock quotations in the com,
mercial journals show a large
dropping in stocks and bonds,
and when this is the case, it is
usually followed by declines all
along the commercial lines, and
in our Judgment the European
conditions have a lot to do with
this state Of affairs.

"Joys" of Country
Depicted in Munsey's

DR.. Woods Hutchinson, in Munsey's
Magazine, draws an amusing picture Of
life out of doors. He says:
II have always felt profoundly skep-
teal, too, about the truth QHthe story
that Sir Isaac Newton th9hght out the
whole theory of gravitation under an
apple tree. after an apple had fallen
on his head. II he had sat still for any
length of time under an apple tree. a
thought dome as large as his must have
collected at least four caterpillars, three
spiders, beetle, and a couple Of dozen
flies, any one of which would have
thrown the most powerful train of
thought OF its track.
Indeed, a cynic has declared that
one reason why people are crowding
into the city is that Il is the only place
where one can live the outdoor life with
any comfort-in the roof gardens, on
the pavements, and on the bleachers.
Certain it is that nine times out Of
ten, when jewellers In the country want
to enjoy themselves, they go indoors.
In most parts of the United States,
during the season in which the weather
permits one to sit out of doors with
any comfort, life is rendered a bur-
den by flies, gnats. and mosquitoes,
unless behind the protection of screens.
For both town and city jewellers,
these winged pests are the mort serious
obstacles TO living the outdoor life, and
particularly to sleeping In the open air,
or with windows wide OPEN
