There has been talk for some days
to the effect that IL the court house
property had been sold yesterday, le-
gal proceedings would have been COM
menced with view to preventing the
making of the deeds, and the an
nouncement Of w. w. Lewis. Esq, with
reference to the attitude of the owners
law range was taken as an intimation
of such a programme. The Enquirer
has been unable to get hold Of any
thing more definite; but when the news
was circulated about the streets that
the commission had decided to rebuild
on the old site, there was some pref
ty hot talk about restraining orders to
prevent the destruction and waste Of
public property that would necessarily
be involved in the proposition.
Inability to sell the old court house
is not the slightest excuse in the word
for locating the new building on the
old site. On the contrary, 1t Is the best
possible reason why the new building
SnOulQ go SlSeWHtIt thc iheCiSos oi
both county and town. If the present
building is razed in order that a new
building might go up. 1t will be neces-
sary to spend several thousand dol
lars for rent, which expenditure would
not have to be made II the new build
ing were to go on a new site. II the
commission were to agree to locate the
new building on the Smith lot, the one
that has been donated free of COST
then not only would the county save
the confusion incident to the removal
of the various county offices, and the
expense Of renting quarters for the
transaction of public business, includ-
ing the holding Of court; but the town
of Yorkville would still have the ben
eft Of the present building until the
county should have an opportunity to
sell the same at a satisfactory price.
But Just now 1t looks like the little
bunch that is insisting on tearing down
the present building and putting the
new building on the present site. re-
gardless Of fitness or expense to both
town and county, has won out.

MeL,urin,, witbdrawal.-Ex-sen

MeLaurin's Withdrawal.-Ex-S -Sena-
tor John McLaurin never did wiser
thing than when he abandoned the
aspirations he had been nurturing
since last spring to become a candi-
date for governor Of South Carolina,
which meant the attempted taking Of
a higher step to the United States sem
ate, for which Governor Blease Is
slated. No living man has been able
to get an understanding Of South Car
olina politics, but 1t Is probably a cor
rect guess that the man who is to sue
ceed Blease as governor will be the
man Of Blease's choice. Senator Nc
Laurin was not fitted for training with
the Blease party, and in addition, he
Is too conservatively inclined, al
though the observer Of the trend Of
political events in South Carolina has
noted tendency toward conservatism
on the part Of Governor Blease in the
past few months. Senator McLAurin
has done we'll to vacate the field. His
elimination will be calculated to less
en- the friction that would have been
inevitable. He retired from the Unit
ed States senate with a good record
and one whose preservation Is now
secure.-Charlotte Observer.

It was bought by John r. Hart, attor-

The Martin property was first offer
ed in eleven separate lots ranging In
size from thirty acres to 314 acres,
with the understanding that 1t was af-
terward to be sold as whole in a
tract of 666 acres, and II 1t should
bring more as whole than in lots
then the sale by lots would be off.
There were announcements Of mort
cages to be foreclosed to secure title
and Of disputes as to lines and title to
parts of the land, and the bidding on
the separate tracts offered, was very
cautious. the average price offered be-
ing between SO and "a an acre.
When the land was put up as
whole there quickly developed a con-
test between Mr.. B. T. L. Martin and
the Spartanburg attorney for Skalo-

ed down to the Spartanburg attorney
for $3,3ss, a few cents over IS an acre

THE SulZER CASE
comprehensiveIy Sized Up by a. High
Authority.

Authority.
Fortunately, the country as whole
has not failed to understand the Sui
ger case at Albany. In the estimation
of the public ii has not been Governor
Sulzer who was on trial, but his ac-
cusers and his judges. The legtsla-
ture belonged to Tammany, and obey
ed the mandate which ordered the
disposition of a stubbornly honest and
upright governor. The trial of Sulzer
has been the most shameful proceed
ing in the history of American admin
istration. The impeachment of An
drew Johnson was an ill-advised and
mistaken thing, but 1t rested upon in
tense conviction, and it was dignifed
by the sincerity Of the accusing house
and the high character Of the senate
In the case of Governor Sulzer, the
charges were brought by a joint in
vestigating committee which had
started out to see what could be found
against the governor. The investiga-
tion and the trial left the governors
standing. as chief executive, clear and
virtually unassailed. The whole trial
turned upon his campaign receipts
and expenses last fall. There was no
attempt to show that he had spent
money improperly to secure his elec-
ton. 1t was, however, shown that va
rious supporters had given him con-
siderable sums Of money at that time,
which he did not expend and which
were placed to his private account. A
number of those who had contributed
such sums testified that they had been
willing to have Mr.. Sulzer use the
money as he saw fit, whether to re-
lieve himself Of personal debt or to
pay legitimate campaign expenses.
From the standpoint of a private gen.
tleman Mr.. Suffers collection and ex-
penditure Of money last fall has not
appeared in a pleasant or creditable
light. But that anything disclosed on
the trial should have been held as suf-
ficient ground for impeaching a gov
ernor Is ridiculous. If Governor Sui
zer had been willing to do even a part
of the things Mr.. Murphy desired,
there would have been no thought Of
impeaching him.-American Review
of Reviews.
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1913-11-04

Senator McLaurin has many friends
and admirers in York county who
would have been glad to have voted
for him for governor; but most of them
belong to a school Of high class, free
and Independent thinkers, who have
not given enough attention to practi-
cal politics to realize the hopelessness
of any mans being able to attain the
governorship without the backing of
strong political organization. If he
had had such an organization three
years ago, Featherstone would have
easily been elected in the second pri-
mary.

said that Sulzer's friends were afraid
that the deposed governor might be
attacked by gangsters, on account of
the increasing depreciation Of the
Tammany crowd and every effort was
being made to protect him.

EVANS PLAYS BEST
ROUND YET SHOWN
Establishes Amateur Competitive
Golf Record for Rearranged
Championship Course.

Garden City. y. Y. September 2-The
best golf so far shown in the national
amateur golf championship tournament
at the Garden City Golf Club was n
round of IL made to-day by Charles
Evans. Jr.. of the Edgewater Golf
Club, Chicago. This, with his IL OF
yesterday. made a total of l4S for the
qualifying round of thirty-six holes
and won the Chicasoan the gold medal
Tor the lowest score. In addition. It
established an amateur competitive
record of Il for the rearrangcd course
and eclipscd the IL made m practice
by Eben NJ. Byers. of Allegheny. Pa,
as all the bask tees were not used on
that occasion.
At the conclusion of the qualifying
round twelve players were tied with
scores OF lG5 for the last eleven places
and they had to play off so that one
would be brought up. The tie was
decided on the first hole. and Heinrich
Schmidt, of Worcester, was the vic
tim
1t was late in the afternoon when
the draw was completed for the first
match play round of eighteen holes
The first match finished was that in
which Fred Herreshoff. Ekwanok. de
feated Robert a. Gardner. of the Hins-
dale Golf Club. Chicago. Eben NJ.
Byers, Alleeheny. Pa. who won the
1908 championship. defeated John NJ.
Ward, of baseball fame. Evcns. the
runner-up last year, beat w. G.
Pownes, Pittsburgh. another former
champion, that when Travis and
Travers won their matches the present
champion and two former champions
were among the survivors.
AT the outset of their match, Presi-
dent Watson. of the United States G.. A.
had Champion Travers 3 down on the
third green. The next three holes were
halvcd, and Travers squared the match
on the ninth. Coming. in the cham
pion, playing in fine form, took tho
and to play.
Travis had little difficulty at any
stage with H. X. Kerr. OF Ekwanok,
whom he defeated, 8 to .. Francis
Ouimet, on whom the Massachusetts
contingent rely to bring this years
championship to New England, played
steadily against Buxton, of Hunting
don Valley, Pa, and won handily BY
and 3.
AS Travis. Evans and Byers are in
the upper half of the draw" and
Travers and Ouimet, together with
Herreshoff, who will play the winner Of
the HuntcrUlmer match, are in the
lower half, the contest which will be
the centre OF interest tomorrow Will
be that between Travers and Ouimct.
The latter has made a favorable i'm
preston on many followers of the game
by his clever work
All the matches during the remainder
OF the week will be at thrty-six holes.
The order of play tomorrow follows:
