- The Yorkville and Charlotte negro
teams played baseball in Yorkville
Wednesday and Thursday afternoons.
Both teams are good and a large num-
ber Of whites were included in the
spectators. Charlotte won Wednesday
and Yorkville won yesterday. The fea-
ture Of yesterdays game was the re-
markable pitching Of a Glover negro on
the York team. He Is a tall, slim, wiry
negro throws ball like shot out Of
gun, and which the catcher can gen..
orally stop but seldom catch. 1t was a
common thing for the Charlotte bat
ters to strike after the ball had struck
the catcher's nit, and when the pitch
er chose to vary his work by giving
slow ball the batter would strike before
the ball got to him. The fans say that
this negro would make star pitcher
for even one Of the big leagues. The
receipts at yesterdays game amounted
to one hundred dollars.

After all that can be said on the sub
ject has been said, the fact will remain
that Woodrow Wilson owes his nomi-
nation as the Democratic candidate for
the presidency to the inherent worth Of
the splendid character and ability
which have held him so true to the
principles of Democracy. There can be
no dispute, however, of the proposition
that any given notable political culmi-
nation must necessarily arise out OF
sequence of circumstances, all more or
less vital to the climax, and the NOM
ination of Woodrow Wilson is no eX-
ception. Right here we waht to re-
mark that in our opinion considera-
BILE portion of the credit for the nomi-
nation of Governor Wilson belongs to
Mr.. and Mrs. August Kohn of Column
bia. 1t Is not to be understood that
this estimable couple is claiming any
credit; but that does not change the
facts in the case. Who Is there who
would deny the part that South Caro-
lima played in the nominating conven-
ton? If South Carolina had been in
the Underwood column with Alabama,
Georgia, Mississippi and Florida. Gov.
Wilson would not have lasted more
than three ballots. And what has that
to do with the statement as to Mr.. and
Mrs. Kohn? Take it up like this: Pre-
vious to this year the country press of
South Carolina has never taken great
deal of interest in a presidential nomi-
mating campaign. AS a matter of fact
the average country editor has not
heretofore paid much attention to such
politics. He did not know much and
he probably cared less. At the annual
convention of the State Press associa-
ton in Columbia last year, Governor
Wilson was the guest of honor, and one
of the most notable features of the oc-
casion outside the regular programme,
was a luncheon rendered by Mr.. and
Mrs. Kohn to the governor and some
twenty or more newspaper editors. All
the editors who met Governor Wilson
were pleased with him, and when they
went back home most of them began
saying nice things about him to their
readers. Later on when other candi-
dates began to get busy, many of the
editors had already become strong ad-
herents of the New Jersey statesman
When the county conventions met over
the state, it was easily apparent that
the Wilson sentiment was overwhelm-
ing. That is why, Notwithstanding the
efforts of the political leaders to the
contrary, the state convention endors-
ed the New Jersey man, and why the
South Carolina delegation at Baltimore
gave him eighteen votes forty-six
times. Except for that luncheon given
by Mr.. and Mrs. Kohn, the probability
is that the country newspaper editors
would have either taken no interest at
all, or been all mixed up. which would
have amounted to the same thing, and
the politicians would have had things
their own way as usual.
