yETOES ANTI-TIPPING BILL.
kentucky Governor Gives Reasons
for Not Approving Measure.

Frankfort, Ky, March 21.-Gov.
McCreary to-day vetoed the bill
which prohibited the giving or re-
ceiving of tips by servants, walters,
porters, BARRIERS and all others who
profit by such gratuities.
1T does not seem to be-" said the
governor, Ito be in accord with the
intelligence and freedom of the pres
ent time to arrest men or women and
fine them for the so-called offence of
rewarding or giving to an obliging
helper, a polite attendant or an OBJ
liging waiter

Men are to Blame for Race Suicide

In the April Woman's Home Com
panion there is an interesting discus
sion of the question, us the American
Man a Failure?" Following is an
extract from one of the contributions:
Il think the mans idea of keep
ing up appearances has more to do
with race suicide than any other reas-
on. Husbands nowadays would rath-
er take their wives to places Of
amusement where they could meet
and be seen by men higher up in
the business world, than stay at home
while their wives minded babies. Let
me tell you Of an absolutely true case
to explain my point.
"A college man who had lived most
of his time in New York, married q.
girl from a small town in the South.
He brought her up to New York to
live. and established her in a down.
town hotel apartment.
"'Now, dear, I'll show you just
what a good time little old New York
can give you,' he told her. I'll take
you to shows and games, and my
friends wives will come and call on
you, and you can join their clubs:
and we'll have one long honeymoon.
The girl realized that she ought to
feel very happy at such a joyous out
look, but somehow or other it was
not exactly the married life she
had planned. Instead, her dreams
had been of a little housekeeping fiat.
And she had dreamed of sitting be-
side him in the evening while he read
his paper and she mended and darn
3D. and eventually have dainty little
white garments to sew on, putting
love in every stitch. That was the
dearest dream of all. However, a few
months later the doctor told her one
of her dreams was to come true.
Never will she forget the way her
husband greeted the news. She had
dressed up in her prettiest gown, and
her happiness had made her radiant.
But when she had snuggled on Jacks
knee and had whispered the news,
and waited for the joyous expression
she felt must come, she waited in
vain. Instead, she felt his body
stiffen, and looking, up she saw an
expression of horror and disappoint-
ment, and his joyous words were,
Good Heavens, not already?'
eff you looked into their home
to-day, this is the picture you would
see: A man considered good fel-
low by everyone; good husband
who takes his wife everywhere; a son
of ten spoiled beyond endurance, ed
ucated at a fashionable school where
every otner child is an only child,
and discontented; and the mother is
social climber, because her hus-
band wants her to move in the same
circles as Mr.. G.'s wife does"

Aldermen to be Enjoined.

Gaffney, March 25.-Those who
are the head of the citizens move
ment against the aldermen of the
city announced yesterday that third
mass meeting of the voters will be
held in the court house Wednesday
evening. 1t is expected that this
meeting will bring a crisis. The al
dermen have stated their position,
the voters gave their ultimatum,
their. demands were refused by the
aldermen and Wednesday evening
will probably witness some drastic
steps being taken.
The whole wrangle has now re-
solved itself into whether or not the
aldermen are willing to abide by the
wishes of the people. The people in
mass meeting held last week demand
ed that the aldermen agree to serve
the city for approximately S25. The
aldermen in turn claimed the full
500 salary and there the matter
rests.
The matter has been the subject
for great discussion by practically
every one in the city. Prominent at
torneys state that the aldermen of
Gaffney have no right to draw any
salary at all, because the charter of
the town makes no such provision.
The charter says that the mayor shall
draw a salary, but no mention is
made of any money to be paid the
aldermen. 1t is, therefore, expected
that the citizens will decide Wednes-
day evening to secure an injunction
against the aldermen from drawing
any salary at all. In fact, one of
the prominent agitators of the ques-
ton states that such resolution
will most certainly be introduced.
In the event that it is and the reso-
luton passes the assembly of citi-
zens, future moves are hard to prog
nosticate. The affair is exciting no
little interest and the meeting
Wednesday will be largely attended.

Fertilizer Tax is Short.

The records in the Office of the
State treasurer show a decided fall
ing off in receipts from the fertilizer
tax during 1912 as compared with
the same period during 1911 and
1910. The receipts from the fertil-
izer tax are turned over to Clemson
college. So far this year the State
treasurer has collected S144,906.O5
from the fertilizer tax, while his re-
ceipts from the same source up to
this time during 1911 were $780,
Otis and during 1910 S162,60S.60.

Agrees With The Herald.

We are inclined to agree with the
suggestion of The Bamberg Herald
that it is a pity that the Hon. John
L. McLaurin was not asked to head
the warehouse commission. While it
is true that from a salary standpoint
the place is nowhere in the neigh
borhood of Mr.. McLaurin's size, still
it is probable that he would have ac-
cepted the position if it had been
rendered him. There would have
been no good way for him to get out
of it. Of course there are others
capable of wrestling with the big
problem involved, but we do not
know of anybody in whom we would
have had as much confidence as in
Mr.. Laurin.-Yorkville Enquirer.

non-combatants. The detectives are
positive that the outlaws have au-
thorized no one to make propositions
on their behalf because communion
ton with the bandits in the noun
tains has been blocked.
The formal arraignment of the
prisoners was definitely set to-day
for April IS, at Hillsville. A change
of venue to Wytheville, Wythe coun-
ty, is likely.

Edwards, whose manner is guile

laughingly read one of the circulars
