THE SHAME OF
SOUTH CAROLINA.

Of all the criticisms Of Governor
I'iease. of South Carolina and hrs
bIatherskfting at the meeting Of
state governors last week, at Rich.
mond, Virginia. none have been m2re
timely and well directed than the fol.
lowing from the Louisville Courier
Journal:
In the name OF South Carolina
Governor Gale BIease advocates mob
murder at the conference Of Govern
ors in Richmond And Why not put il
that way? South Carolina has chosen
Mr.. Blease as its governor knowing
full well the character of the man. IT
is said that the people always get as
good brand of government as ma
jority OF them deserve. If that is not
always strictly true it is at least true
that when a man whose caliber is wei
known is elected as governor that
slate gets the kind of governor the
majority want. A lack OF general en-
lightenment may of course, cause
them TO want him.
There is an intelligent minority in
South Carolina TO which Biease and
his outbursts are gall and wormwood.
Unfortunately for intelligent minorl
ties the rule Of the majority some
times illustrates the pessinistic as
sertion Of the late Henrik Ibsen that
n.inorities are often RICH. and major
tiles wrong. There's nothing to be
done about 1t bat to become ma

W. Fairbanks, former United states
senator and vice president Of the Unit

day anniversary today. Recently ru
NOR has been circulated that friends of
Mr. Fairbanks plan to present his

caso convention next month. So far
as Is known Mr.. Fairbanks has done

Since his retirement from the vice
presidency he has RETAINED from any
active participation in politics. At the
same time the politicians recall the
fact that Mr.. Fairbanks had a great
ambition to head the ticket four years
ago and many believe that this ambi-
ton would be instantly rekindled II
there appeared to be the slightest
chance for its fufllment
But so far as any outward or visi-

Berlin, May 1.-The Karl May AS

with the avowed purpose of helping
the public to forget the youthful sins
of the man whose name the association
bears. Karl May. who died on April
list near Dresden, was for many years
the hero of Young Germany. His most
popular stories dealt with the Amer
lean Indians around the Civil War
period, ana May himself figures i'm
most of them as swaggering hero,
who became chief of the Indian tribe
with which he fought.
Some two years ago. however. II was
learned through an action brought by
the author for libel that not only had
he not bceI a great hero and fought
among the Indians hut that he had,
in his youth. been a member of gang
of youthful robbers I'm the forests of
Silesia, where they became the especial
scOurge of harmless old market wo-
men: that ne had served ten years

that he had never been outside OF Ger

had attained led to the formation Of
