SAM ]. NICHOLS FOR CONGRESS
Will Try For Sent Held by Joseph T.
Johnson.

Spartanburg, August 15.-Samuel
]. Nichols, we'll known young attor-
ney of this city, who acquired con-
siderable fame during the gubernato-
rial campaign last summer, formally,
announced his candidacy for Joseph
II. Johnson's seat in congress as rep
resentative of the 4th Sourh Carolina
district, in a speech to Laurens coun-
ty voters yesterday. 1t has long been
understood that Mr.. Nichols would
make the race, but this was the first
public statement of his intention. He
is young man, but has had much ex-
perience in politics, and is one Of
Governor Blease's confidential ad-
visers. He has served in the general
assembly.
Representative johnson has been,
in congress twelve years, and it is
generally assumed he will be can
didate for reelection. The 4th con-
gressional district, which comprises
Spartanburg, Greenville, Laurens and
Union counties, gave a good sized ma
jority for Blease last summer, Green
vile county being the only one of the
four to oppose the governor, and Mr..
Nicholls's great popularity with the
Bleaseites makes him formidable
candidate. Mr.. Johnson's decisions
in the appointment of certain post
masters, notably in Spartanburg, have
made him some enemies. Neverthe-
less, he is a strong campaigner and
has kept a close hold on his consti-
tuency. He was unopposed last year.

"PACKET" UNDER OLD LAW
MERE TECHNICAL TERM
Henry II. Classic Defines the
Phraseology of Postal Enact
ment Of 1916.

To the Editor Of The Star:
In your editorial of Friday, Express
Companies and Parcel Post you draw
attention to the act Of Congress Of 1s45
forbidding the carriage. as a business,
of letters or packets which are mailable
under the postal law: and you make
the interesting suggestion that since it
is now possible. in accordance with ths
parcel post law. to send packet of
up to eleven pounds in weight by the
mails. 1t is unlawful. according to the act
of 1S45. for any private corporation or
individual to carry. for consideration,
any parcel up to that weight"
1t is to be feared, however, that in
making this suggestion you have been
misled by the term packet In the
act of 1915 the term packet is used
in q technical sense and refers merely
to packets or bundles of letters. 1t is
not equivalent to. or in any sense synony-
nous with. the term package" or par
cell" 1t was not intended to embrace
parcels of merchandise. which, in point
of fact. were not then mailable at all.
Indeed, the question whether Congress
could create monopoly in the carriage
of merchandise or of any articles or COM
modities as distinguished from the trans
mission of intelligence by letters and the
like. is one of grave doubt in respect
of which the weight of professional
opinion inclines to the negative.
