money out of the whisky concerns. 1t
was not what is legally defined as COM
pounding a felony; but 1t was in that
nature. The commission should have
concerned itself about no money eX-
cept that which 1t actually had in
hand. On the contrary, it should have
devoted itself solely and absolutely to
the prosecution Of all who had been
guilty of dishonesty. If this had been
done, the people of the state would
have given their endorsement, and
there would have been no possibility
of things taking the direction in which
they now seem to be going. The En-
quirer has held to this position from
the beginning and it sees in the pres
ent situation full vindication of its
view. Whether Fielder wrote that let
ter or not, we do not know. We are
not any more impressed with the as
sertion that he did than we are i'm
pressed with his assertion that he did
not. We can readily understand how
it could be frame up" and we can
see how 1t could be genuine. We do
not see any better motive in his graft
ing from the grafters than would have
existed in such a partnership as is pro-
posed in the alleged letter. But If the
state had spent it's own good money
and time in Furnishing all who had to
do with crookedness in connection
with the dispensary, we think the
whole situation would have been very
much better.

Reports from the small grain con-
tinue favorable.
Il is pretty we'll settled that most OF
the peach crop has been killed.
Il is a fine thing to have such neigh
bors as Mr. w. L. Pursley, Of the Beth
any neighborhood has. and it Is a fine
thing to live so as to enjoy the res
pect and esteem Of such neighbors
Mr.. Pursley was burned out about
three weeks ago, as was stated In The
ENQUIRER at the time. He lost practi-
cally everything he had, the members
of his family being left without
changes of clothing. He had some in
surance, not nearly enough to cover
his loss; but enough to help very ma
terially. He could have come 1t again
alone if there had been no other way
for 1t, and would have done 30. He
Is that kind. But his neighbors did
not wait to see. They volunteered
their sympathy and with it their SUBJ
stance; also their labor. AS the re-
suit of a little consultation 1t was de-
cided that II Mr.. Pursley would fur
nish the lumber and hire foreman
they would help do the rest. After
this ARRANGEMENT had been perfected
the neighbors brought their wagons
and tools, and went to work. They
tackled the proposition Of erecting a
four-room house on Tuesday, and the
next Tuesday-just one week ago, they
had it finished. The only reason that
the house was not made larger, was
that Mr.. Pursley was unwilling to
make as free use Of their services as
they desired. 1t was a nice thing to
do all the way through. and everybody
can afford to feel proud Of the fact
that they live in country where such
things are characteristic Of the people

Columbia, March 18: Judge Gary

missioners of Beaufort county, who
were appointed by Governor Blease,

Beaufort county delegation Il will
let the opinion Of the supreme court
stand" said Governor Blease today
when asked II he would resist the or
der. A permanent injunction was is
sued upon an order to show cause.
This decision will have an important
bearing upon the other appointments
made by the governor in disregard to
the recommendations Of the delega-

From our point Of view special judges
are being appointed too often in South
Carolina. 1t strikes us that the state
has enough regular judges to perform
the work this state requires. There
are forty-three counties in South Car
olina and there are twelve judges who
are paid an annual salary Of about
$500 each. There are, 80 We are in
formed by lawyer of our neighboring
state, one hundred and fourteen coun-
ties in North Carolina and that state
has fourteen judges, and no special
judges are allowed to be appointed In
that state. South Carolina is a much
smaller state than North Carolina
and we are sure that the larger the
state, the larger the amount of law
breakers, and yet in South Carolina
almost every week some special judge
Is appointed to hold court. Can some
one please explain why the difference
in the two states. Here is another in
stance. A judge came to York county
something over month ago to hold
court. The juries were present, the
witnesses were on hand and the court
machinery was in working order,' but
not a case was tried by jury. The
lawyers were not ready for trial, but
the expenses went on just the same
1t was not the judges fault. No. not
that, for he was ready for business
The result will be that the calendar
will be crowded at some future term
Of court and special judge will be ap-
pointed to get rid Of the cases. The
lawyers have the courts in their own
hands in this state. They get togeth-
er, recommend a special judge to the
supreme court, the supreme court rec
ommends to the governor and the
governor does the appointing, after all
the lawyer Is responsible for the spe-
cial judge. We were seated in court
house once upon time with friend
who had a case to come up at that
term of court, we thought. We lis
tened to several rulings Of the judge
and strange to say each Of his rulings
were in accordance with our fellow
companions advanced predictions. We
asked the companion If his case would
come up this term and here Is the an
swer we received: mo, sir, not before
that judge" The laws governing the
courts of this state, in our opinion need
careful attention by the legislature
Rock Hill Herald.
The foregoing is nothing more nor
less than a plain statement Of facts
facts that are generally recognized by
all who are in a position to know. II
the public is satisfied with the condi-
ton of affairs described, we'll and
good; but If 1t Is not satisfied there
should be a change. 1t is up to the
public. So far as we are concerned
we think there should certainly be g
change. We are not prepared to say
just how the whole situation can be
remeded; but we are confident that
there will be no trouble about the rem
edy If the people will only make de-
termined effort to secure the same.

Mr.. Clarence H. Poe, who recently
returned to his desk on the Progressive
Farmer from a trip around the world
in the interest Of his excellent paper
is favoring some of his friends with
souvenirs in the shape Of newspapers
from the far east. The Enquirer has
been favored with copies Of two news
papers published in British India
and one published in Japan. One
Of the Indian newspapers is in the ma
tive text and the other in English. The
Japanese paper is in the text common
to China, Japan and other Mongoliar
races of eastern Asia. The papers
are quite interesting as curios; but
we confess our inability to use any
portion of the contents of any of them
in The Enquirer. However, we very
much appreciate being remembered by
Mr.. Poe, and will hold the papers or
exhibition for those who desire to see
them.

they endeavor to educate and they do

There are those of the men folks
who undertake to make light of these
things; but they ought to know better.

mans right to keep up with the fash

Is not right to try to keep them from
It; because to do so Is to deny pleas

These millinery openings, such as
are being held in Yorkville this week
have great educational value, and ev-
cry lady who can possibly arrange to
do so, should make it a point to come
and see, and learn all that Is to be

styles in wearing apparel. including
every thing in hats, should visit York.
Vile this week. The Thomson COM
pany and the Kirkpatrick-Belk COM
pany have their annual spring OPEN
ings on Thursday, Friday and Satur-

There was a time in Yorkville when
an opening announcement meant much,
and then a long time during which 1t
meant nothing. But during the past
few years it has begun to mean more,
and today it means more than ever In
the history of the town.
These two live millinery and dry

Why was not the letter of Fielder tc
Hub Evans made public before now?
And why was it given publicity by
Governor Blease just at this time?
Mr.. Fielder says the letter is for
gerry. And yet Mr.. Fielder evidently
knew a great deal about the inside
workings of the old dispensary board
If he had not known so much about
the business ne would not have been
able to recover" so much money for
the state.
1t is plain that there is a great
deal that has not yet been made pub

course of time. Let us hope so at any

In the case of the United States
government against several barrels of
coca cola at Chattanooga, Tenn, the
defendant is answering the charges of
adulteration with caffeine, that this
drug is also the active principle OF
tea and coffee. The plaintiff answers
that while it is true that caffeine Is
contained in tea and coffee, its delete
rious effects are in a measure neutral
lied by certain natural oils. That is
gratifying information, for as great
and powerful as is this government. 1t
would hardly venture to attack tea
and coffee.
