CARNIVAL
WON'T COME

Because of a lack of vacant property
in the downtown district the Eagles
have compelled to turn down the offer
of the Nat Reiss Carnival company to
show In Hammond
There was another reason, the fact
that carnivals do not always pay well
in Hammond. But, say the Eagles, a
street fair would and 1t may be posi-
bic to hold one when the ornamental
lights go In on Holman and East and
Westa State streets
During the summer the Eagle lodge
meets one evening each month. At the
August session the report of e. G..
Sproat, delegate to the national con-
vention held recently In Baltimore
was heard in part.
The balance will be given at social
meeting in September. the date OF
which will be decided upon at a regu-
lar meeting the first Wednesday of
next month.

Friday, January "a, 1913,

We printed the message OF GOV;
Blease to the legislature on Senator
Tillman and today print Senator Till
mans reply. We do not very clearly
see the good judgment in either one
Of course, every fairminded person
must recognize the error of Senator
Tillman in proclaiming all during the
campaign that he was hands Off in the
governors race, and then at the last
moment coming out in favor OF Juoge
Tones, but that is all over, and we 30
mot see that the legislature has any
thing to do with it, Tillman did just
what he condemned Hampton for do
ing interfered in State politics, ex-
cent he went further by writing per-
sonal and confidential letters while ne
was asserting his neutrality. Better

The county superintendent Oh eou-
cation in session in Columbia this
week unanimously endorsed the rec
ommendation of Gov. Blease for the
levy of a special tax of one mill to alo
the rural schools of the State, and
special committee was appointed to
wait ON the governor and present the
resolution in person. If this recon-
mendation is not carried out, or some
eyery large direct appropriations made
the State aid to high schools and TO
rural graded schools and all State alo
will have to be cut off, for the r"ason
that the legislature has provided Tor
this work out of funds which under
the constitution already belonged to
the schools. but now the old State dis
pensary fund is exhausted. II cnls
special tax is not levied the rural
school situation will be set back at
least ten years. The sentiment OF the
legislature seems to be largely in faT-
or of the special levy Of one mill. New
berry has three f:gh schools receiV-
ing aid from the State and to cut It on
would greatly embarrass these
schools. We hope in the near future
to see Newberry take advantage OF the
rural graded school act. Three
schools in this county received aid
this year from the term extension act.
And applications are on file for AID
from the building fund. The legisia-
ture can scarcely afford to cut OFF State
aid at this time, and if it does it will
greatly impair the efficiency of many
schools in the rural districts.

IS IT FAIR?

We notice that several of the daily
newspapers print the reply of Senator
Tillman to the message of Gov. Blease,
but do not print the message to which
Senator Tillnan replies, and even the
News and Courier holds the message
until the reply is received and then
prints only a synopsis, and gives the
reply the prominent position.
Now, we ask, is that fair journal
ism, and is that treating the readers
of these newspapers fair and just. The
State did not print either. That comes
nearer fair dealing than to print only
one side. And then the same news
papers complain that the governor is
always saying something terrible
about the newspapers.
The newspapers are not wilfully in
accurate but they do suppress that
part of news items which may not
agree with their editorial policy, or
we might say those statements made
by public men who are not of their
way of thinking. We believe that
newspaper should print the news
whether it agres with it or not, and
that it should give every one fair
and square deal, even though it nee
essitated printing of opinions or posi-
tions Numerically opposed to its edi-
torial positions.
And because the daily press has
not done this is the main reason why
it has had so little influence in the
politics of South Carolina. The peo-
pie have almost come to the point of
going against what the newspapers
advocate. And the reason is the peo-
ple have come to realize the fact that
the newspapers will not give square
deal to the public men who do not
agree with them. 1t is sad state of
affairs when you come to think of it
and we are of the opinion that the
newspapers are in large measure to
blame for it.
The newspaper editor should be big
enough and broad enough to see all
sides of a question and to give fair
deal to every one. Until he does
broaden he will not WELD that infu-
ence to which he is justly entitled.
The public men of the State should
not be in the position where they
court the opposition of the press in
order that they may gain favor with
the people, but that is the situation
today and we can not wipe out the
fact.
There is too much of little prejudice
and spite in all of us, but especially
should the editor rise above It so far
as his news columns are concerned.
Let him say what he pleases in his
editorial columns, provided it is par
liamentary, but let his news columns
be absolutely fair and impartial, and
then his editorial opinions will carry
weight with them. And not until then.
