the loan. and that 1t, the bank, was
at liberty to lend the money If it saw
proper. The bank, however, got legal
advice, which was to the effect that
the note was no good except with the
signature of the governor. On this
Governor Blease decided to sign the
note, on the ground that in the first
place he did not want the schools to
suffer and in the second place he had
demonstrated beyond question that
the money could not have been gotten
without his signature, and that the
others were not in position to say
they had forced him to sign, or that
they could have gotten the money
without his help If the general as
sembly had been broad and generous
In the matter, 1t would have either left
the governor off the commission or
composed the commission of a person
mel that would have been agreeable to
him. AS a matter Of fact Governor
Blease has never had any idea Of al
lowing the schools to suffer lack OF
the money. What he wanted most was
to show the state treasurer and the
comptroller general could not get the
money without his signature on the
note, and as for himself, he had ar
ranged personally to borrow the en-
tire $50, 900 on his own, account and
let the schools have the use of 1t. There
may be a good deal of child's play in
the whole business; but In our view IT
is not fair to charge 1t all against the
governor, H' .'. .f'' go

THE CATTLE QUARANTINE

The Enquirer has received the fol-
lowing from Mr.. Ray Powers, state
veterinarian, and Is publishing the
same for the benefit Of those interest
ed: .,...
Clemson, March 20, 1918. -,..
Dear Sir: ....s
AS a result of cooperative tick
eradication work conducted by the
Veterinary division Of Clemson college
and the U. s. department Of agricul-
ture, York county has practically
been freed from ticks and will be re-
leased from quarantine April 1, 1918.
New quarantine regulations for the
control of spenetic fever in cattle will
become effective on that date. This
change in regulations will release York
county from both Federal and state
quarantine, thus allowing shipment Of
cattle from this county without re-
strictions which have previously been
imposed. That portion Of York coun-
ty north of the Kingville & Marion
branch Of the Southern railway was
released from quarantine July 15,
1912, and the new quarantine regula-
tions, effective April l, 1913, release
the remainder of the county from
Federal and state quarantine. With
the exception Of few premises which
remain under local quarantine, York
county has been freed from ticks and
these premises will probably be in
condition for release by July l, 1913.
Tick eradication work, which has
been conducted in York county, will
prevent heavy losses Of cattle, from
which the county has previously suf-
fered, and will open all the markets Of
the country to York county cattle.
This should prove of great help to the
live stock industry Of the county.
Trusting that you will publish this
letter for the information Of your
readers, remain
Very truly yours,
M. Ray Powers.

DR.. M. Allen Starr, one Of ]. Pier
pont Morgans physicians, said that
the great financier came to his death
as the result OF emotion occasioned by
his examination before the Pujo mon
ey trust commission. or course we do
not know anything about 1t; but we
are inclined 10 think that DR.. Starr
was talking only with his mouth. A
man of the nerve that Mr.. Morgan
necessarily had to make the career he
made, would not have been in the
least frustrated by the inquiries Of a
few congressman. II he knew he was
all right, he had nothing to fear, and
if he did not know he was all right,
the consequences do not matter. Most
men pay the debt Of nature long be-
fore they attain Mr.. Morgan's age,
and so far as he is concerned, he had
reason to congratulate himself on hav-
ing deferred the payment as long as
he did. We would not be understood
as speaking f1ippantly or disrespect-
fully. If there is anything shady in
Mr.. Morgan's record we are not aware
of the fact. He was merely the fore
most business man of the world. and
so far as there is any reason to be-
lieve. as upright as other business
men. There is very likely something
wrong with conditions that will per-
NIT man to accumulate so much
wealth as Mr. Morgan accumulated,
and as we understand the Pujo COM
mission, its principal business is to find
out whether or not such Is really the
case.

PATENT MEDICINE ADS

For years readers of The Enquirer
have noticed the scarcity Of patent
medicine ads in the columns OF the
paper and wondered at the reason
therefor.
AS a rule people like it rather than
otherwise-like the absence Of too
many medicine ads, and the matter
never comes up as the subject of a
complaint.
But it will be of more or less inter-
est to explain why The Enquirer Is
comparatively free from advertising
of this kind, and here goes.
Generally speaking 1t is partly be-
cause of The Enquirer and partly be-
cause Of the advertisers.
If the business office took every
medicine advertisement offered, at the
price offered, the paper would be lit
orally filled with medicine advertising.
But the fact Is that only a small
per cent of the patent medicine con-
Germs are financially responsible, and
there Is a rule in the business office
that a man or concern who will not
live up to his financial obligations Is
pretty much of humbug anyway.
OF course The Enquirer does not
pretend to pass upon the merits Of
medicines offered through its columns.
1t cannot do so. 1t is pretty safe to as
sumo, however, that the proprietors
of medicines offered through the COL
umns Of this paper have confidence in
their goods, else the advertising would
not appear.
There are numerous patent medi-
cine concerns who are kept out Of The
Enquirer mainly because they are not
willing to pay the same price for the
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1913-04-04
WITHIN THE TOWN

The preparations for the county
fair entertainment are occupying the
attention of most of the young people
and Of many Of the old ones. AT first
1t seemed that the task Of organizing
the big aggregation Of amateur talent
that enters into the production, was
almost hopeless; but Miss Paul has
succeeded in demonstrating the fact
that she understands her business
thoroughly, and now there is gener-
al conviction that the affair will be a
successful go.
The board Of health wants another
clean up day, and 1t Is hoped that the
people will give heed. If any one thing
has been established in correct, sani5
tation it is that towns and cities must
be kept clean. Havana, Santiago, New
Orleans, Memphis, the Panama canal
strip and other pest holes have been
made habitable by thorough cleanups.
The board Of health In Yorkville has
been more or less q joke-not the per-
sonnel, but its efforts to do anything.
The joke is largely through ignorant
and vicious disregard Of the common
good. There are people who allow filth
to accumulate around them and spit
like toads when anybody complains.
They take complaints as personal
matter instigated by personal spite.
They get mad too, because they real
lie that a just complaint is refiec-
ton on their own shortcomings. Now
the broad, manly thing Is for every
body in the town to recognize that
their premises, however clean they
might be, are not as clean as they
should be, and that the more earnest
intelligent, conscientious cleaning up
that Is done, the less liability there
will be to deaths on account of filth. r

Although The Enquirer has not
printed liquor ad for more than
twenty years. during which time it
has refused offers Of this kind Of bust.
ness amounting to many hundreds Of
dollars, 1t has never seen proper to
brag about it's own attitude or to criti-
else the attitude Of other papers that
looked at the matter differently. There
are a number of things in which we
disagree with the Columbia State, and
one Of them is that papers attitude as
to sale Of liquor, we believing that
recognition of the liquor business as
legitimate is inimical to the public
good; but we want to say now and
here that believing as 1t does on the
liquor question, the Columbia State is
deserving Of very great credit in de-
nying itself the revenue that 1t might
otherwise derive from the printing Of
whisky ads. In giving this credit to
the State we do not seek to take any
credit for our own attitude. for believ-
ing as we do on the liquor question 1t
would be criminal for us to accept
money to help further the sale of
whisky.

Governor Blease has signed the note
to borrow 100000 authorized by the
general assembly for the common
schools; but not until after 1t was
made clear that the money could not
be gotten otherwise. The general as
sembly provided for the borrowing of
the money by the governor. the comp
troller general and the state treasur-
er Before the bill was passed the
governor asked the general assembly
to arrange the matter otherwise on
the ground that the two other officers
were his personal and political enc
mics and he did not desire to be as
sociated with them. The general as
sembly, however, went on and put the
governor on the commission anyway.
1t was generally understood that it
was politics. On the one hand, if the
general assembly should comply with
the wishes of the governor, it could be
made to appear that the governor had
licked it. On the other hand 1t ap-
peared that If the governor should re-
fuse to serve the schools would have
to go without the money, and the
people losing sight Of the political
strategy" involved would hold the
governor responsible. When the time
came to make the note the governor
refused to sign. The comptroller and
treasurer signed and the governor told
the bank that he had no objection to

There are a good many people pre-
dieting business decentralization as the
result of prospective revision Of the
tariff and currency laws; but our folk
need not worry. OF course it is hard
ly to be expected that there can be
any appreciable change in existing
business and financial conditions
without more or less disturbance. But
then our people need not worry. They
are not heavy borrowers. Most they
get grows out Of the ground, and its
abundance depends upon intelligence
and energy as we'll as upon the sea-
sons. We cannot be hurt much either
by tariff or currency changes, and II
is just as we'll to go on and stop
worrying about such things.

FREEDOM OF THE PRESS
Against Columbia State Blow
at Liberty.

In the Richland court of common
pleas last week verdict was render
ed against the State newspaper In the
sum Of $4,000 for publishing articles
relating to the conduct Of the Black
brothers in the municipal contest in
the city Of Columbia. We remember
the articles referred to, but how a Jury
ever reached the conclusion that they
were libelous we cannot see II that
verdict stands 1t will have the effect
of rendering newspapers useless so
far as being public servants are con-
cerned. They will not dare to warn the
lurking in their midst. Corruption may
be rampant in official life and the
newspapers are helpless. They dare
not expose or sound the signal of
alarm. When the day comes that
newspapers are forbidden to criticise
public acts 1t will be sad day for the
general welfare. II is the fear of pub
licity that holds a check rein over
public affairs, and when this is re-
m )ved the public must suffer.
The State at times Is very severe In
its criticisms Of public officers, and
men 1t opposes for office, this should
not prejudice the public mind to the
extent Of penalizing II, any more so
than individuals should be penalized
for their criticisms. II this verdict
stands the test of the higher courts 1t
will be heavy blow to the freedom
OF the press, which Is the boast Of our
American institutions, and make of
the press an impotent institution. We
therefore hope that the court Of last
resort will reverse this verdict; by
doing 80 1t will teach future juries to
be less reckless in reaching a corclu-
sion and il will frown down the infiu-
ence brought on by political prejudice
when rights are being adjudicated.
We have not the slightest doubt
taat the jury which rendered this
verdict was largely Influenced by pre-
judice, and this was famed into fame
by the appeals Of the lawyers en-
ployed to secure verdict We view
this matter more seriously than the
consideration of the personnel Of the
State. It is the newspapers future
that we are concerned about. II they
sre to be limited In the fear Of Judg-
ments then as we have before said, II
has a very demoralizing effect upon
them and the damage done will be to
the public. F
There is an element who do not
want publicity. They would rather
their acts be hidden from the public
view, but we take It that the masses
ere entitled to know what their public
servants are doing and the only way
to get this information is through the
press.-Manning Times
