TILLMAN OPPOSES COMPULSORY
ATTENDANCE.

Senator Tillman's position a,
gainst compulsory education on
the ground that it will increase
literacy among the negroes, and
eventually give them the right
offranchise does not do his state
manship justice. The Senator
loses sight of the fact that the
negro race does not have to be
forced into tie public schools.
from the moment one of them is
old enough to start their parents
make sacrifices to get them into
the schools, a compulsory edu-
cation law is really not needed
for the blacks, but not so with
the whites, thousands of white
children are deprived of school
advantages by their parents,
some use their children as bread
winners, others are so Indifferent
that they wilfully let their
children grow up in ignor-
ance. We are in favor Of
some kind of a compulsory
attendance law, but the enforce
ment of the law should be left in
the hands of the trustees the
same as is now the distribution
of the school fund.
Senator Tillman has always
opposed a compulsory atten
dance law, it is one of the weak
spots in his political career; at
first we thought his opposition
was entirely for political effect,
but he seems to be in earnest and
means to give it as his Judge
ment that a compulsory law is
: not needed in this State. How
ever, if the legislature ever de-
cldes to enact a compulsory at
tendance law, it should not
merely enact the law, but It must
go farther and make the neces.
sary provisions to carry 1t out,
it should make provision for
those children whose parents are
unable to provide books, and the
other essentials for school work,
without such an arrangement it
would be useless to undertake
the enforcement of such a law.
To have the necessary provisions
it will require money, and the
taxpayers will have TO supply
it, butas this is a question direct.
ly affecting all of the people, we
] believe it would be we'll to submit
the question of whether or not
the people are willing to pay a
special tax to enforce a compul-
sorry attendance law, in the pri-
mary next summer for the white
voters to determine, and if a ma
jority favor the proposition then
let the following legislature
make such provisions as will in
sure the attendance of every able
bodied white child in the State.

JUSTICE PREVAILED.

The trial and acquittal Of viii
Fair at Spartaubnrg should be
an object lesson to the people
not only in this State, but to the
country at large. Here was a
negro boy charged with COM
mitting a horrible crime upon a
respectable white woman. He
was arrested, lodged in Jail, and
only through the bravery of the
shesif was he saved from being
lynched. The sheriff removed
his prisoner to the State pen
itentiary for safe keeping, then
the governor ordered a special
term of court in order that swift,
sure punishment would be meted
out to the guilty. The victim
made a positive identification
of the negro charged. she was
positive thtt he was her assail-
ant, yet when it came to the
proof it was convincingly shown
to a jury Of honest white men
that the negro was not only in
nocent, but the woman had not
been molested at all, and that
she was laboring under halluc-
nation.
Had it not been for this brave
sheriff who held off the mob, not
withstanding it threatened HIM
with blowing up the jail where
his family was, one member be-
ing i'll, this negro would have
been hurled into eternity and the
blood of an innocent man would
have been on that moo. Judge
Lynch may have some justiica-
ton for his DEGREES in rare in
stance, but the instances are so
rare, that it is unsafe to take a
case to his court and especially
so, since the courts are in the
control of the intelligence of the
State,
Wherever a crime has been
committed and the mob cries for
vengeance. the Spartanburg case
should be called to mind, and if
this does not halt the disregard
for civilized law nothing short
of arm intervention can. 1t IS
easy to take a friendless victim
to crafty the anger of a mob,
the unfortunate creature is help
less and alone, but if given a
chance, he may be able to prove
even to those who sought his
life that he is innocent and the
real culprit is left unmolested;
in the Fair case he not only
proved himself innocent, but the
evidence developed that the wo-
man had not been outraged: ex-
cepr in her own diseased imagin-
alton. The people of Spartan
burg should feel proud of their
sheriff for the brave manner IN
which he performed his duty,
and Of the jury that listened not
to pubic clamor but performed
their duty as justice required.

story of his alleged connection

The grand; jury in Horny
county has returned "No Bill'
against Solicitor Singletary
charged with criminal assault.
Owing to the prominence of the
defendant this case attracted
general interest all over the
State, and when the indict.
ment was given to the grand
jury the prosecutrix failed to
appear, and the court issued a
bench warrant and had her
brought before the grand jury.
The outcome was not unexpected
as those who were familiar with
the matter have said all along
that the charges against this
official was groundless.

A MISERABLE ~sUBTERruGE.

Before the last congress adjourned
II passed an appropriation bill. one of
the provisions Of which was that no
part Of the $4,000 0 appropriated for
the department Of justice be used to
enforce the provisions of the Sherman
antitrust act against associations Of
either laborers or farmers who might
be accused of violating it. President
Taft very promptly and very properly
vetoed the, bill, charac. srizing 1t as
class legislation OF the most vicious
kind. There appears to be a proba-
bility of a similar bill being introduce

and statements have beer made in

Wilson is understood to be willing to
sign such a bill II one is presented
for his approval. 1t is to be hoped
that this report u incorrect, and that
the presidents attitude has no. been
accurately stated.
