Aict with college commencements'
This wear we presume the prevailing
idea in arranging the date was to avoid
a conflict with the political campaign
meetings. The date fixed is the same
as the date of the Newberry college
commencement. We regret this exceed
ingly. We doubt if there is another
member of the association who has a
record for as long and consecutive at
tendance upon the meetings of the
Press Association as we have, and we
had hoped to keep the record up, but
we do not see how we can attend dur
ing the commencement season in New
berry. We were anxious to take that
trip also, but it is rather early for a
trip. Political campaigns should have
had secondary consideration. We have
missed only one commencement al
Newberry college since 1878, and only
one meeting of the Press Association
since we became a member abou
twenty-five years ago. We can not at

We are inclined to the opinion that
Comptroller General Jones is right in
holding up the payment of any account
that does not have an itemized state
ment attached to it. Our recollection
of the law is that it is required. The
only point is, has he been requiring 1t
of all officers. 1t is common sense
and therefore good law. 1t should be
easy to keep an itemized account of
expenses when you are spending pub
lie money. We have spent some pub
lie money, and had to keep an itemized
account, and the only trouble we ever
found was that We usually spent more
than we could legitimately charge up
as we. saw it. There should be no OBJ
lection to fling an itemized account
and it is proper to do so. No neces-
sity for a controversy between Gov.
Blease and Mr.. Jones on this subject,
or any difference between the appoin-
tees of Gov. Blease and Mr.. Jones on
the subject. File your itemized state
ment and you will get your money.
The people have a right to know for
what you have spent their money. We
remember reading about an itemized
statement that had charges for "shoe
Shines" newspapers" "baths" and
"shaves' and things of that kind. We
have never charged for items Of that
kind but it is better to put them down
if you are going to charge for them
than to undertake to include them as
expense.

The Observer has a right to It's
choice for the presidency, and it has
a right to turn Wilson's picture to the
wall, and then turn it back again, and
it is none of our business. In fact,
The Herald and News was at first dis
posed to Harmon, until it appeared
that he was practically eliminated
from the running. And as the quail
ties and qualifications of the several
candidates unfolded themselves, we
concluded that Underwood was the
best man in the race, anyway.
The utterances of the Observer are
simply quoted to show that Wilson's
picture favors Wilson in the respect
that it can turn square around without
much trouble.
And also to show that in December,
at least, all the presidential bureaus
(which included Wilson's, we presume)
were sending out stacks and stacks
of campaign literature"
Now the doctrine" of the supper
ters of other than Wilson is Anything
to beat Wilson," and the States which
have expressed prefernce for Under
wood "are lending aid and comfort to
the interests" and "may help the Re-
publicans and the trusts to keep Wood
row Wilson out"
In December it was "Bye-Bye Wood
row."

WOODROW WILSON'S PICTURE
REVERSIBLE.

REVERSIBLE.
The Newberry Observer of May 10
carries a double-column picure OF
Woodrow Wilson on its first page, and
under it, ''The Man Who is Leading
The Democratic Hosts in the United
States"
The Observer also carries two edi-
torials, which read as follows:
Harmon has shown up so poorly in
the campaign for the presidency that
his former supporters are leaving the
sinking ship" and turning to Under
wood. Their doctrine is, Anything to
beat wilson,
'The Fight on Wilson"
Georgia, Florida and Mississippi
are lending aid and comfort to the Gin
terests" in their fight for Underwood
He hasn't the shadow of chance for
the nomination, and could not be elect
ed if he had it; but if enough Southern
States 90 for him they may help the
Republicans and the trusts to keep
Woodrow Wilson out. He is the man
they fear; the man they are moving
heaven and earth to keep out of the
nomination at Baltimore"
These editorials in the Observer
and especially the publication of the
big Wilson picture, are interesting IN
view of the fact that the Observers
picture of Wilson, as late as last De-
cember, had it's face turned to the
wall. The following appeared in the
Observer of December 12, 1911:
"Bye.Bye Woodrow"
eve were delighted when Woodrow
| Wilson won the governorship OF New
Jersey, and when he was mentioned
for the presidency we looked upon his
candidacy with favor. But when he ac-
cepted free passes from the railroads
our admiration for him got a severe
Jolt, and we felt that the mighty had
fallen. That was explained-not al
together to our satisfaction, however
and We began to look with favor on
him again, and went so far as to cu1
out his picture from the cover OF the
National Monthly and get nice frame
to put it in, and then hung it up or
the Office wall-where it still is, but
with its face to the wall since his let,
ter came out in which he applied for
pension from the Carnegie Foundation
fund"
cit does look like the college boys
and the editors and all US "lit'ry fel'
lers" ought to whoop it up for Wood
row, as matter of professional pride
if nothing else; but for the present, al
least, you will have to count us out
We have no choice at present.
Meantime all the presidential bu'
reaus are impartially sending us
stacks and stacks of campaign litera'
ture to print, and we are just as i'm
partially not printing any of it, be-
cause none of it is accompanied with
the wherewithal to pay the printer anc

Mr.. A. w. Jones, Comptroller Gener-
al, Columbia, S. C.-Dear sir: I have
a letter from yourself to Mr.. c. W.
Creighton, of Greenwood, S. c., in
which you state:
Services rendered on the special
fund by the month is not permissible. :"
1 notice in looking over the accounts
of Ex-Governors Hayward and Ansel
that claims for detectives, both white
and black, inside the State and outside
have been paid without a word from
your Office and in much larger sums
than the amount to be paid Mr.. Creigh-
ton. I can not understand why you
are endeavoring to hamper me in the
enforcement of the laws, for Section
1893, Volume 1, Code of Laws, 1912,
provides:
Section 1893. The amounts specified
for the various officers Of the State and
for various public purposes, other than
for salaries and clerical services, shall
be duly accounted for; detailed state
ment thereof shall be made to the
general assembly at it's next ensuing
session. No person authorized to make
contracts or draw said appropriations
shall exceed the specific appropria-
tions, nor shall any fund be expended
for any other purpose than that for
which it may be appropriated. All ac-
counts shall be itemized and verified" :"
would be glad, therefore, if you
would pay this claim without further
trouble, as you have been doing in the
past.
These appropriations are set aside
for the governor and the claims ap-
proved by him. think this should be
satisfactory and should be paid by

True, you have not appreciated it, but
1 do not care to have any trouble in
the court about the payment of the ex-
penses of this Office, and would be glad
if you would pay them without furth-
er controversy.
If you will notice, the above section
specifies that "all accounts shall be
itemized and verified" and that "a de-
tailed statement thereof shall be made
to the general assembly at its next en-
suing session" This applies to me
and not to you. The accounts are to
be itemized and verified to this Office
