CAROLINA HAS WARM
 FIGHT ON

COLUMBIA, $. C.. June lS. -- With the close of the first week of speech making campaign for the governorship it has become evident that the political battle in South Carolina this summer is to he one of the most interesting and exciting since the days of the TiIiman cam paigns The fight for the governor ship is between Cole l. Blcase. the present chief executive. and Ira Jones. former justice of the state supreme court.
 The contest already Is being car t,cd on with an energy and cn. thusiasm out of all proportion to the issues involved. Since the last state campaign the prohibition question has been shclvcd. and for lack of other important issues the present contest promises to develop into a purely factional battle for control of the state administration In other words. it IS Co be fight between the Blcasc and anti.I}lcasc elements oi the democratic party
 The opponents of Governor Blcasc declare that neither m personal character or mental attainmcnts is he worthy to bc the chief executive oi South Carolina They say that he k cratic and unsafe. that he has abused the pardonlng power and has blocked the enactment of need cd laws by placing himself at log gcrhcads with the legislature,
 On the other hand, the governors friends and supporters contend that thc statements about his personal character arc merely the islanders of his political enemies They de clare that he has headed vigorous administration that has established an cnviablc record for efficiency and economy in handling the affairs of the state.

The secret of Death Valley Scot tvs" source of wealth has been dis closed in a lawsuit, in Los Angeles during the present week. says the Los Angeles Tribune
 The strange tales oi hidden wealth and the wizard-likc trips into the dcscr, by which he obtained fabulous sums of money which he iavishcd on any who cared to join his cele. hration were denied for the first time by him when he appeared be fore the county grand jury and told the story of his life for the last ten years
 According to a statement issued by Deputy District Attorney Ray Horton and ] w. Joss. who inter rogatcd Mir Scot, before the grand Jury, the entire amount of money ever received by him in connection with his mysterious mines came rom promoters who, by the use of his name, sold worthless mining stocks to people anxious to gain wealth by becoming interested in his ventures

ANYTHING TO BEAT WARREN

Hendricks organ. the Sheridan Enterprise, attacks Senator Warren thus:
"n John B. Kendrick goes to the Senate his influence will be with Sena
torso ulberson, Kern, Reed and Williams Gall Democrats and a lot of gentle
men of ha progressive and patriotic sort"
Now, let's Be- Just what that means
OF July both 1--WE i've before us the Congressional Record) Warren

were against it, WARREN WON.
Again on the IN day Warren urged a appropriation of $4,000 to
preserve national monuments in various western states. The lineup was

And again h same day Warren urged the appropriation ito maintain, re-
pair and build roads and bridges in Yellowstone park and the additional
appropriation Ito widen and surface sadr roads sc automobiles IA be admitted

the park, ant between Jackson and the park The lineup al Warren for
the amendments.w with Reed violently opposed. AS BEFORE, WARREN WON
Had KendrcE bee there working with Reed, ct al, Wyomings interests
would have been poorly protected.
During on of the conoquies in reference to these amendments, Sena
or Reed alluded to Senator Warren as the senator from Montana" Sena-
or Warren corrected him., and evidently, in order to be faceuous, Senator
Reed replied. Il will apologize to the people of Montana TO miscarhng the
craft from Montana, responded with this statement:
Mr.. President it las beer made clear, believe, that the senator from
Wyoming, Mr.. Warren, does lot represent the state of Montana. merel,
curing appropriations wish very much that he did represent the state Of
Montana. We would be veryg glad to have him and WOULD BE PROUD
OF HIM"
, 1912-08-15
coMMo ON SENSE.

Senator Warren is charged with Sc
curing appropriations for federal
buildings and that the outlay Is too
large for the size of the cities in
which these buildings have or will be
located. 1t may be hat these appro-
priations are liberal, but we have not
towns concerned. at least they have
not been voiced in the local papers.
Cheyenne has a magnificent federal
building and one that is a credit to a
city much larger than this. but no one
has been heard kicking about II. In
fact we show our friends the building
and take them through it and feel real
real chesty about 1t.
We know that Wyoming Is bound to
grow at a rapid rate-that such a
growth is as sure to come as the ris-
ing of the sun. II would be poor econ
omy to erect federal buildings com
mensurate with the size of the towns.
well knowing that such buildings will
soon be utterly outgrown. that others
much more expensive must later be
erected.
1t has been charged that Senator
Warren looks after his friends and
that they in turn work and boost FOR
him. He would be a mighty cheap
sport II he didn't, and his friends
would be anything but friends II they
didn't support him. That Is human ma,
ture the world over and when 1t is
gone from life We want to get off the
map-for 1t will then be a bum old
world.-The Tri-Weekly News
, 1912-08-15

Another statement which we will
quote from the article is In relation to
+. w. Mondell. 1t reads: "A search
of the records of the House of Repre-
sentatives fails to show n great
measure of Importance introduced or
championed by F. w. Mondell." If we
have a single reader who would be-
lieve that statement we do not know
who he is. The worst enemies Of Mon
dell and Warren give them credit for
what they have done. We have shown
this attack upon Mr.. Warren to a few
Of our Democratic readers and asked

, 1912-08-15

The people are getting tired Of this
undertaking business. 1t matters not
how clean and upright his life may be.
nor how free from blame his public
course has been, If his place is wanted
by the opposition. charges are
trumped up, spread abroad as facts
and the work Of character assassina-
ton is kept up until the man Is
pushed to the wall If 1t is possible. A
man may refute these charges and
show they are absolutely untrue. out
that does not mean hat they will not
be brought up against him again and
again, Just SO often as there is an &C.
casion for his enemies to get the pub
lie ear. But the people Of Wyoming
are not going to be deceived. In fact
this attack is quite likely by its very
virulence to turn the tide Of public
sympathy toward Mr.. Warren.-Saca-

WILSON, ENEMY OF LABOR.

How much of a friend of workmen
Woodrow Wilson is may be gathered
from the following carefully prepared
remarks of his delivered in a baccalau-
reate sermon at Princeton University
on June 10, 1909:
You know what the usual standard
Of the employee is in our day. 1t 10
to give as little as he may for his
wages. Labor is standardized by the
trades union, and this is the standard
to which it is made to conform. No
one Is suffered to do more than the
average workman can do. In some
trades and handicrafts no one is suf-
fered to do more than the least skill
full of his fellows can do within the
hours allotted to a days labor. and no
one may work out of hours at all or
volunteer anything beyond the mini.

nomically disastrous such a regulation
of labor il. 1t is SO Improbable TO
the employer that in some trades 1t
will presently not be worth his while
to attempt anything at all. He a
better stop altogether than operate at
an Inevitable and inyariable loss. The

Improbable, under its present reguia-
ton by those who have determined to
