Hare Hitting

The Tigers took an awful slump
with the stick last week, dropping
down to an average of POS,
whereas they hit .270 the week
before. They secured As hits last
week. However, two men hit over
800, Fries and Neighbors. Mil

A contrast was the hitting of
the Spokane players, six hitting
over 800. and of these McCarl,
Wagner and Hannah batted over
the 400 mark.
Little extra base hitting was
done by the Tigers. Ten in all
were secured during the week,
Neighibors leading with two dou-
bles and triple. Fries got a
double and triple. and McMullin
glommed pair OF two-baggers.
Seven bases were stolen, Fries
getting two. Hensling, Keller,
Neighbors, Holderman and Kauf-

led in run-getting with quartet

presses itself on the rubicund'

pleasure mingled with surprise on

Then Kelly did something no

hit the ball right on the proboscis,

We are giving in full detail such in
formation as we have of the official
status of the county commissioners OF
York county. Although we have been
impressed for some time past that
there was probably something wrong
about the matter, people with whom
we have talked and who are in a bet
ter position to know the law, have
failed to confirm our doubts, and we
have left the matter open until now.
The article in another column includes
about all we know on the subject. We
are not disposed to charge or intimate
any intentional oversight in the mat
ter, and We do not hesitate to say that
after all we may be wrong in think
ing that there is anything about the
present status Of these officials that
may result in complications in the ad-
ministration Of the office of county
commissioners. So sincere, however,
is our belief that there is such doubt
and that the matter may result in Sc
rious complications, unless such mis-
take as may have been made is cor
rected at the earliest possible moment
We are willing to be laughed at, or
even sneered at, on the possible charge
Of having found a mares nest. And in
this connection too, we want to say
that If a mistake has really been made
no part of the blame for that mistake
can fairly attach to the governor or
the officials in the office of his excel
lency.

Governor Blease has published pro-
carnations in which he gives notice
that the commissions OF all commits
sioners of deeds who have been ap-
pointed since January l, 1896 and the
commissions of state detectives and
county constables appointed under the
act Of February Is, 1911 are revoked on
January 81, 1913. A commissioner OF
deeds for South Carolina in other
states and foreign governments has
about the same functions in the state
or under the foreign government where
they live, that notary public has in
South Carolina. The Office is one of
convenience to South Carolinians away
from home, and in facilitating the
between people living IL. this state and
those abroad. The evident purpose OF
the governor is to wipe out all COM
missions and make a new start. The
fact that the governor has already re-
voked the commissions of large num-
bers of notaries, has already been pub
lished, together with the explanation
that while the governor believed in ia
voring his friends, he also believed
that the commissions Of notaries and
other officers appointed by the govern
or should not extend beyond the term
of the governor appointing them. Two

Cant, 1, M. Grist.

Tomorrow marks the tenth anniver-
sary of the day when the late L. M.
Grist ceased his earthly labors after a
long and useful life, and since which
time his successors have been trying
to carry on as best they could the
same work on the principles that had
been formulated into his chart Of life.
Captain CRISIS conception of life
was that the highest service to God
found it's most faithful expression in
earnest, loyal and unselfish duty to his
fellow man, and although he was wont
to confess that there were times when
he was at loss to decide exactly what
that duty was, as We get further away
from the date of his discharge from
his active labors. we are more and
more impressed with the belief that he
followed his chart with unusual fidel-
ity.
AS has been stated time and again
within the past ten years, and as many
of the older people will remember,
Capt. CRISIS idea Of a newspaper was
that 1t should adhere to the truth, give
both sides of every controversy as
near as practicable, and not allow it
self to be used as an instrument of de-
ception to promote the selfish plans of
the designing few against the trusting
many. A simple programme, easy to
carry out, it appears on its face at
first glance; but one that sorely tried
the splendid character and capacity Of
the man who was faithful to 1t, and
still plenty for any individual in any
walk Of life, who is ambitious to live
up to his full responsibility today.
AS to whether the conduct of The
Enquirer during the past ten years
has been such as to meet the full ap-
proval Of its founder, we shall not un-
dertake to say. 1t would be manifest
ly impossible for US to say; but If ma
terial prosperity is to be taken as an
evidence, there Is no question Of the
Of large per cent Of the
people for whom he lived and labored.
But however unwilling We may be
to assume what Capt. CRISIS verdict
might have been on the conduct Of The
Enquirer for the past decade; still we
feel no reluctance in confessing that
except for the foundations by him so
wisely and firmly laid, those who are
now in charge would probably never
been able to make the paper what it is.

John Y. Darlington has returned to
the penitentiary, after over-staying his
extended parole Of six days. He had q
guard with him. Perhaps without the
guard he would have returned on time.
-Spartanburg Journal.
The comments that have been made
on this incident are numerous and va
ried. One suggested that no guard
should have been sent with Darlington.
Another thought there was signifi-
canoe in the extension OF the parole
three days longer. Another calls at
tention to the fact that the convict's
father is no better, and the inference
Is that Darlington should have been
allowed to remain. OF course, II Gar
lington had been allowed to 90 without
guard there would have been COM
ment, and If he had gotten away with
or without a guard there are those who
would have said that the whole thing
was a put up job. The public, however.
Is only concerned with the facts.
