POOR DOG TRAY.

1t is awful hard to please The
State, it is a case with it, to damn
il you do and damn if you don't.
The first primary brought a wall
from our Columbi groucher be-
cause there were too many votes
cast. and IN last Fridays issue it
had a pain because there were
too few votes cast in the second
primary. 1t admits that the Uni
ted States census for 1910 would
give to South Carolina in 1912
about 173, 900 white voters, but
it raised big noise when 49,
600 of this number turned out and
put to sleep it's fond hope; when
it failed to get it's first wish graf
flied to have Blease defeated, it
had another hope, the election Of
J. Fraser Lyon, in this hope we
were with it, but when The State
took such an active part in try.
ing to elect Lyon, and when the
Executive committee acted so
outrageously, it was foregone
conclusion that it would be use
less to argue with the voters, be,
cause, they were either hell-bent
to resent the action of the COM
mittee, or they were indifferentas
to the result, this feeling was not
confined to the Bleaseites, there
were many Jones supporters
who voted for PEBBLES for no
other reason than the arbitrary
and outrageous conduct Of the
State committee, and there were
many others who would not 60
out to the polls because they
were dlsgusted with the methods
of their leaders.
The State says that ''the sue.
cessful candidate has received
the votes one forth or one fifth
of the white men in South Caro-
Ina this is true, but he is the
party'S nominee and will be elect.
ed on the 5th; had the State com
mittee acted with a proper regard
for the rules OF the Democratic
party, she second primary for
Attorney General would have re-
suited in L full turn out practl
cally, and The State would not
haye had complaint of the
smallness of the vote.
There is no question about
General Lyon having done his
duty. He has made an excep-
tionally good officer, and although
we have not admired his faction
al alignments and have opposed
some OF his acts as Attorney
General we nave always held
him in the highest esteem, and
have every confidence in his ln-
tegrity. Lyon Will come again,
young, energetic and ambitious
with the stuff IN him that cannot

we are an agricultural SecGlOn,
dependent upon labor for the
making and the harvesting of the
crops, If we encourage the un-
reasonable demands of the labor
unions it will not be long before
we shall have a similar condition
right here among ourselves, in
fact, we see some signs oft now,
these labor agitators are begin
ming to go about the country or
ganizing ''societies for mutual
protection" which means moth
ing more nor less than the lab
orer pays fees to the society
organizer, in return for which he
receives a doctrine of discomfort,
and taught to demand of his or
her employees more pay and
less hours for service.
There IS absolutely no objec-
ton to labor being organized if
it will recognize the principle of
contracts being sacred, and that
the law of the land must be re.
spected; we are of those who
believe that labor has the same
rights as corporations, and when
imposed upon, the law should put
into operation it's strong machin-
cry to protect it we would have
labor and capital go hand in
hand for the betterment Of each
other: and not as is the case now,
each rebelling against the other.
What kind of a condition would
we have if those who have their
money invested in large enter
prises were to become discour-
aged by the conditions which
every now and then present
themselves, and give up for the
lack of protection, permit the
government to confscate their
property, and their plants close
down: Would these labor lead
ers furnish a means of support
for the thousands of men, women
and children who are striving to
make an honest living? With
the Attorney General of the
State looking for an opportu-
nity'' to have a charter forfeited
because a business has been
stopped by strikers, is their
much encouragement for inves-
tors to develope the country:
The demands of the times require
railroads and other public utili-
ties, it also demands that we have
all manner Of industrial enter
prlses to furnish labor for an
ever increasing population, these
facilities cannot be encouraged
when those who are represent
ing the liberty and the happiness
of people will not afford a suf.
hcient protection to property.
We have no sympathy with
those who strike unless it IS
shown that their employers have
been unjust, that they are not
carrying out the agreementmade
when they entered the employ
ment, in that case, an ap-
peal should be made to the law,
and not to "a committee on
grievances" :" However if those
who strike will, after having
"walked out," go on about their
business and not interfere with
those who take their places, it
The Manning times. [volume] (Manning, Clarendon County, S.C.) 1884-current, 1912-10-23

cannot resist or take an indie
pendent stand against the chosen
leaders, they are forced to obey
the commands of the union al
though knowing they are often
unjust, and detrimental to the
interest of the working man.
The average man sympathizes
with those who strike because
he does not investigate or know
the real reason, usually it is
made to appear the strike is
brought on because the employer
refuses to pay just wages and
requires unreasonable service,
this is from the strikers side of
the controversy; it is not told that
the demands are not made by the
employees but come from the
officers of the organization-the
union. A corporation employs
men at a stipulated wage under
certain rules and regulations,
the wage and the rules are &C
cepted and agreed to before SER
vice is begun, 1t is not long be-
fore the employee is induced into
joining the union, and from that
time on he no longer is free
agent, but is subject to the COM
mands Of men who do not do
manual labor, whose livelihood
is obtained from the toll of the
laborer, in other words he preys
upon the man who labors.
We take the position that cor
porations or individuals are en-
titled to equal protection from
the law, when this is not given,
it is because those in govern
mental authority fear to offend
an organized class of citizens,
and lack the back bone to carry
out the laws they are sworn to
execute. The politician caters
to the labor vote, all those seek
ing popular favor whether it be
in the trades, in commerce, in
religion or politics, the trend Of
their song is labor, this has gone
on until the labor authorities are
drunk with power and their de-
mands are becoming more and
more unreasonable.
Not so long ago the Attorney
General of this State it is said,
stated that he is looking for an
opportunity to bring suit
against the Augusta Street Car
Company for the forfeiture of
its charter because the cars did
not run. How could the cars
ruE when the employees were on
a strike and resorted TO violence
to prevent others from filling
their places? The company did all
in its power to carry out the
provisions of its charter, but the
law officers did not do their duty
and give the company sufficient
protection; the statement OF the
Attorney General, if he made it,
had a tendency to encourage the
lawless spirit Of mob rule rather
than to bring back a normal,
peaceful, and business condition.
This verifes our view of the poll
ticians thatcater to popular favor.
We would direct the attention
of our readers to a condition
which they will face unless the
people discourage labor strikes;

Unto youth that in truth
Continues in natures delight.
If you fail, do not wall:

Of, this life is a strife

In bowers Of Kankakee's stream,
Forever and aye will be calling
Through memory of childhood 8 dream.
Benign is the parties vision,
Where once roamed the Sioux and

And faith in their bosom's mission
Will broaden both heart and the mind.
