KEEPING ORDER AMONG NATIONS

sBig Brother movement among nations is
augured in a notable statement that, given orig
inally in Paris by an American, has caught in
ternational fancy and is becoming the subject
of wide comment
Dr. Norman Dwight Harris, professor of his
tory in Northwestern University, and visitor
il Europe, in commenting upon the Italian
Turkish war made this statement:
II think that ultimately the leading nations

rest of thea paragraph is absurd and

BOND DELIVERY
QUESTION Up TO
governor FREAR

Whether the new bond Issue viii be
delivered to the purchasers in bulk or
will be divided into deliveries set sew
raj months apart has not yet been de-
termined, and 1t is one of the ques-
tions over which Governor Frear is
doing some deep thinking these days.
He received a cable from Treasurer
Conkling this morning asking for in
formation with regard to this point,
but a definite decision has not been
reached.
There is possibility that the de-
livery Of the entire issue at one and
the same time might prove more ex-
pensive to the Territory than a di-
vided delivery. Interest on the bonds
dates from the day of theR delivery to
the purchaser. The payment also is
made on delivery, and unless the en-
tire amount realized from the sale
could be put into active use immedi-
ately, the Territory woulf be paying
Interest. on a large .stiIn, that lay in
the vaults. from which II Mould be de-
irving no benefit.
OF courses says the Governor, 1t
might be possible to, place the money
not needed for immediate use in a local
bank and draw interest that would
help defray the interest paid for it by
the Territory. But it is. question
whether this would, prove satisfactory
or adequate.
The subject is receiving careful con-
sideration from many viewpoints and
probably will be decided within, the
next few weeks.

See Chief Northumberland
With Speech.

Florence. May 2.-President Taft.
at the invitation Of the Florence
chamber Of commerce, made an ad-
dress to the people Of this community
from the rear platform Of his train
here this evening. There were at
least 1000 people at the station and
the place was thrOnged. The police
held the lines. however, and the off,
cials OF the Atlantic Coast Line had
made all arrangements possible for
the convenience Of the president and
the people.
President Taft's address was mainly
on the line Of good government, the
necessity Of education Of the voters
and the avoidance Of innovations in
government that would upset the con-
fidence Of the people and discourage
investments Of capital. He spoke par
ticGlarly Of the interests Of the wage
Garner as a care Of government. He
referred very pleasantly to his last
visit here and to the feet that ne
was talking to Democrats and. there
fore. emphasizing only the broad
principles Of government on which
all must agree.
He was literally cheered and had
several jokes with his audience and
enjoyed hearty laughs himself.

situation arising from the State pri-
maries yesterday The situation is ac
knowledged by party leaders Of f<both
sides to he without parallel in the
political history Of the Common
wealth.
After two conferences today the
eight Roosevelt delegates at large
elected at the primaries yesterday 20
the Chicago Convention decided not
to take any joint action on the at
titude adopted by Col. Roosevelt in
releasing them from obligation to
vote for him, but to leave each dele
gate free to act as he sees fit.
Although the Republicans Of the
State selected President Taft as their
candidate for denomination by a ma
jority Of 1866 over Col. Roosevelt on
the Presidential preference ballot, at
the same time they elected by de-
cisive vote the entire slate Of eight
delegates at large pledged to the for
mer President. Col. Roosevelt secur-
ed ten more delegates in the district
elections and the President carried
nine districts so that Taft and ROose-
Welt each have IS delegates from the
State to the National Convention.
A somewhat similar situation was
created On the Democratic ballot.

| 1t Is indeed great and unexpect-
ed pleasure to see so many OF you
here to greet me-" said William H.
Taft. President Of the United States.
Thursday evening at the Atlantic
Coast Line passenger station yard,
when his special train drew i'm from
Augusta. where he had been to attend
memorial exercises In honor OF his
former aide. and friend. Maj. Archi-
bald Butt. and. in compliance with the
invitation sent him by the Sumter
Chamber of Commerce. ne stepped
out on the rear platform Of his car
to say a few words to the fifteen
hundred people who had gathered to
hear him.
The president appeared tired and
was extremely hoarse. but his hearty
reception seemed to cheer him up
and pleased him immensely. He was
heartily cheered when ne stepped
out on the platform Of his car and
was introduced by Mayor Jennings,
during his speech and again as ne
closed his remarks and his train pull
ed out. Goodbye Uncle Bill" and
Come again Uncle Billy" were the
cries Of the small boys. who had
gathered In force near the end Of
the car and who seemed as pleased
as anybody else with what ne had said.
As he ceased speaking q bouquet Of
beautiful roses was handed him from
one Of the young ladies Of the town
and his thanks to the donator seemed
to come from his heart. HE thanks
for the reception accorded his re-
marks and the good wishes Of the
Mayor were also hearty and sincere
| After his introduction by Mayor
Jennings and his few Introductory re-
marks President Taft launched into
his speech. but. owing to his hOarse-
ness, his voice could hardly be heard
on the outskirts Of the crowd. In his
remarks Mr.. Taft told OF his mission
South to honor the memory Of his
aide and friend. Archibald Butt, from
which he was now returning to Wash
ington. He said. II am opposed to
a change in the constitution which has
lasted one hundred and twenty-five
years. as some others seem to wish It
changed. What this country needs
Is quiet, In order that 1t may become
more prosperous. Changes are apt to
cause financial panics which will
hurt the poor man. 1t Is not the rich
man who suffers In such times, but
the wage Garner. and want the
country to be more prosperous for his
sake" He did not know how the
conditions were now. owing to the late
season. but hoped the South was
prosperous.
| Mr.. Taft then turned his attention
to politics in this State. saying that
his party did not count a great deal
on Its supporters. hut that ne under
stood that at the last election there
were a great many who voted one
way and prayed the other. He then
thanked the audience for their at
tention and his train started off amid
the cheering Of the crowd.
This is the second time that Presi-
dent Taft has visited Sumter. having
stopped at the passenger station once
before to make short talk To the
citizens Of Sumter. This time he was
greeted by n much larger crowd than
formerly and In much heartier man
ner. From appearances it certainly
seemed that II II came to a matter Of
choice by the citizens of Sumter bc-
tween Taft and Roosevelt. Taft
would win In walk-over
