The Report of the Grand Jury

Editor w. w. Smoak, Of the Walter
boro Press and Standard has had an
other personal difficulty, this time for
publishing a special report Of the Co..
Teton county grand jury.
1t appears that there was differ
ence of opinion on the part Of the may
or and council of Walterboro on the
one hand, and certain citizens of Wal
terboro on the other hand, as to wheth-
er certain alleged violators Of the law
should be punished.
Complaints had been lodged against
the alleged offenders in due form, and
after they had been allowed by the
mayor and council to lie without action
for what seemed to the people inter-
ested on the other side Of the question,
too long a time, there was complaint
to the grand jury and when that body
took official notice, its presentment
was published in the Walterboro Press
and Standard.
This publication, it appears, was
made the occasion of an attack by the
mayor on Mr.. Smoak, the editor Of the
paper, and although the attack prob
ably did not amount to great deal so
far as the editor Is concerned, the in
cident seems to furnish a basis for a
little thought.
We are not going to claim that 1t
was the duty of this editor, in the
sense Of an obligation, to publish this
presentment; but there Is no question
in our mind Of his right to publish it
and if he thought that the public
should know it, it's publication was a
duty.
A general presentment of a grand
jury, unaccompanied by a bill of in
dictment, is Of very little value, un-
less it gets to the public, and If such a
presentment is Of Importance to begin
with, it's Importance is not complete
until it gets in a newspaper
We can readily understand how this
Walterboro mayor would not have
cared two cents, for the action of the
grand jury in burying its complaint in
the seldom read pages of the Sessions
Journal, and we can understand as
readily how he would be reused to the
fighting point when the matter Is
spread before the public, and as of
course it might prove exceedingly dan
gerous to attack a member Of the
grand jury, as such, this fellow natur-
ally chose to let himself loose on the
editor instead.
1t is a common custom among the
newspapers of the state to publish
presentments of grand juries for what
they are worth as of interest to the
people. Some newspapers use their
discretion in publishing such reports or
parts of such reports as they see prop
er, and others, We believe, publish
these reports only as official docu-
ments, which is the way all of them
should be published.

Work for the Plant Breeders.

There is in progress in Columbia to.
day a meeting, the results Of which
will be of tremendous Importance t
the future uplift and prosperity of the
state of South Carolina if the efforts o
the broad minded, patriotic men who
are seeking to put splendid ideas into
execution. only receive the proper
backing.
The meeting referred to was called
by David R. Coker, of Hartsville, Hon
E. ]. Watson, commissioner of agricul.
ture, DR.. A. c.. Moore Of the University
of South Carolina, Prof. ]. N. Harper
director of the experiment station al
Clemson, Mr.. ]. Swinton Bales, Of
Edisto Island and President E. w
Dabbs of the Farmers Union, and is
attended by representative farmer.
and others from different parts of the
state.
The object Of the meeting is the or.
ganization of the South Carolina Plant
Breeders association, and the object
is no doubt accomplished so far as the
preparatory routine is concerned; but
the great task now Is to push the
propaganda and enlist the live, intelli-
gent people whose support is necessary
to future success.
The improvement of cotton, corn
wheat, oats, and in fact, all kinds OF
plants is the great object in view, and
the object of this Improvement is bet
ter plants and through better plants
larger and more profitable crops, and
through larger and more profitable
crops, increase in the general welfare
prosperity and happiness of the people
A great and glorious object this; but
not at all unreasonable or visionary
for as surely as proper interest is
worked up, the results indicated must
follow.
What is plant breeding? Hundreds
of readers, farmer readers of The En-
quirer, will say they do not know. and
they really think they don't know; but
we venture that right now in York
county there is much knowledge of

NORTH AND SOUTH ROAD

The work of grading the North and
South ROAD into Yorkville has been
completed, and the next thing Is to
sand the graded portion.
The new road Is a very considerable
Improvement over the old road, most
of which has been discarded from the
corporate limits to some five or six
miles out. Where formerly what was
known as the Lincoln road, leading out
of Yorkville was the worst of the many
bad roads to and from the town, it Is
now probably the best.
An important feature of the new
work Is the adequate and substantial
character of the bridges and culverts,
the bridges being Of iron and the cul-
verts of concrete, and both having a
permanency that appears to be good
for an indefinite period.
The town of Yorkville has been pret-
ty hard hit in connection with the
work, that portion of the relocated
road lying within the corporate limits,
and less than a quarter of q mile in
length having cost, including a con-
crete culvert and a heavy fill, about
$1,000 that the town will have to pay.
While there is quite lot of work to
be done before the north and south
road will have been completed to the
North Carolina line 1t Is very evident
that the completion of the road will
result in heavy increase of the traf-
fic along this direction, especially COM
pared with what has been going over
the same general route heretofore.

The chief responsibility for the
failure Of the Turkish army rests
with the Christians Of that army, says
a correspondent, writing from Sem
ilina. The Turkish soldier Is 1.-The
same brave fellow he used to be-" but
he was deserted by his Christian
allies, confused by his officers and
left by his commissariat to starve,
while mountains Of rice, bread, beans
and zwieback were piled up less than
20 miles away. In the battle Of
Kumanowo, says the correspondent,
rs per cent Of the army was made up
of Christians-Armenian Greeks,
Bulgarians, Servians and Catholic
Albanians. Not much confidence was
placed in the Bulgarians and the Serv-
ians, but the Turkish leaders had no
conception of the new unity Of the
Balkan states and could not have i'm
agined that the Greeks, always hit-
ter enemies Of the Bulgarians, would
favor them. Accordingly, while the
Bulgarians and Servians were gen.
orally employed in the munition
trains, the Greeks were put at the
front, generally in charge Of the ar
tillery. When the clash came, the
Christians promptly deserted rhe
enemy, leaving the guns unserved and
disorganizing the troop units. At The
same time the 'Bulgarians in charge
Of the military supplies showed no DO
sire to bring up munitions for use
against their blood brothers, and
when munitions were at hand 1t vas
found that thousands of the cartridges
were blank and soap instead Of shells
filled the cassions.

Following a programme previously
arranged, the Republican governors
who attended the conference at Rich
mond, were entertained at Washington
by President Taft and afterward un-
dertook to get together in an effort to
re-organize the Republican party. 1t
was found, however, that the Progress
sives were not ready to consider the
matter, and that former old liners who
had been prominently connected with
the party's activities are without any
enthusiasm just now. There was moth
ing much to do, except to postpone the
proposed reorganization for another
year.

There is a patch of woods near
Hickory Grove that was once owned by
a man named Traylor, who hanged
himself in them. Since the tragedy, the
woods have been supposed to be haunt
ed. There Is every reason TO belleVe
there are many 'possums to be found
In this particular patch; but as pos
sums cannot be hunted successfully In
day time, very little hunting Is done.
The negroes, it Is said would not think
of going into this patch Of woods after
night. There are whites who do not
mind; but some Of these are little
skittish about the matter. The gen.
tleman who told this story said that
white 'possum hunter, told him his one
and only experience in the Traylor
woods like this: Before got very far
into the woods the dogs freed. look
ed up and thought 1 saw a 'possum.
Switching the light behind my back I
commenced trying to shine his eyes.
Before knew it the 'possum kept get
ting bigger and higher until all at
once there was standing on the limb
what looked to me like full-growp
man. I didn't do thing but throw
down my torch and light out from
there. There were two ten-rail fences
between the woods and home; but all
the same I got home before the dogs
did"
Upon the establishment Of the hook
worm dispensaries in this county 1t Is
to be hoped that the people will not be
deferred by reasons Of false modesty,
from giving their full cooperation.
Although the disease Is not thought to
be as common in this section as in
some other parts Of the state, still 1t Is
more prevalent than 1t should be here.
The experts who are engaged in the
effort to eradicate the disease, say that
they have found many instances where
the people are disposed to hold back
and refuse to give their cooperation.
There Is no good reason for this ex-
cept that some people have an idea
that the presence of the disease carries
with 1t a suggestion Of deformity, for
which idea there is no good founda-
tion. While the origin and nature OF
the disease Is thoroughly understood
by the experts, and while children who
have been exposed to certain condi-
tions are more liable to have contract
ed the disease than are children who
have not been exposed to such condi-
tions still the disease Is liable to be
found almost anywhere, and wherever
1t Is found 1t is source of danger, dis
comfort, annoyance and retarded ply
sical and mental development The ex-
perts of the state board Of health thor
oughly understand this disease in all
it's details. They have infallible means
Of locating it's existence, wherever and
whenever the patient Is willing to- give
them an opportunity, and the remedies
the use are sure and certain.
