ssIn the old days most Of the
South Carolina daily newspapers
devoted themselves mainly to
the spreading of the light OF
truthful information, and now
the sole object of many OF them
seems to be the promotion OF the
schemes of the interests by
which they are owned. Would
that there could be a return to
original principles, and that all
of cur papers could be lifted
above the undignifed and dlsrep
utable condition of personal in
terest press agency. OF course
the public will reyolt against
these things eventually, but how
much harm is being done in the
meantime!"

SUPREME COURT

OUTRAGE TITS
OPINION BY JUSTICE BLEAK
MORE HOLDS THAT WOMEN
CAN NOT VOTE IN A SCHOOL
BOARD ELECTION.

Oklahoma City Okla, Aug. 1S.-
Male and not female voters are
qualified electors when it comes to
voting in a school bond election ac-
cording to an opinion written by JUS
tice Bleakmore of the supreme court,
and handed down by the court today,
in the case from Tulsa county district
court, wherein it was sought to enjoin
the Tulsa city board of education from
disposing of bonds voted in an cleo
ton there. But while the court held
that women should not have been al
lowed to vote in the election there
was not enough of them who did so
to change the result of the election,
therefore the election should not be
voided, holds the court.
The case came from the lower court
on an appeal to the sustaining of a
demurrer to an injunction sought
against the board. 1t was alleged
that women were allowed to vote in
an election whereby bonds to the
amount of 100000 were voted to buy
site and build school buildings. 1t
was claimed that the women were
not qualified electors in this instance
and therefore the election was not le-
gal. 1t was not contended that enough
women voted to change the result of
the election.

While our own country must suffer
because of a lack of market, yet we
should exercise the grsatest pa'.ence
We would rath y have p0or marke;

some of our factories close down
temporarily than to have our country
overrun with hostile army like that

his banker will have the cooperation
of the federal government in advanc-
ing funds on cotto nto gather the
crop, and loans will be advanced
upon the staple sufficient to keep the
country from any degree Of want.

tience; while our sons are not march
ing away to battle let us rejoice in
the temporary hardships; while our
mips and factories arc not hotng de-
stroyed and our farms being laid

COMMERCIALlZED NICK NAME.
John /. Pttman Has Been Nominated
to Same Office Four Times.

JOnn L. fllNIlldIl Tldo bCCll
to Same Office Four Times.
John |. Pitman of Love county has
an enviable record for being elected
to office. He has been elected clerk of
Love county for three times and is
the democratic nominee for the fourth
time. He is member of the Pittman
family that is so well known in Love
county: he has an acquaintance with
every voter in the county and Is one
of the best campaigners that ever
went out with the candidate gang on
vote hunting trip. The office does
not pay very much and John has not
made fortune out Of it but he has
the honor of being nominated twice
against the old party doctrine of pass
the offices around after two terms,
John T. Wicker was against Pittman
the last time and it was so close a
race that Pittman had but one lone
some vote as his majority. Wicker
is asking for n recount and it is not
sure yet that Pittman has won.
John Pittman has red hair and he
calls himself John Red |. The second
initial in his name was printed in red
on his cards. He made capital out of
the Red in every campaign. There
were so many Pittmans that Red i
was name given him to distinguish
him from other men of the same fam
lily and he Commercialized the nick
name. He would quietly approach a
voter. hand him his card with the red
l occupying a prominent place on the
card and would say, "If you get TO
feeling a little drowsy and bad or any
way sad even though you are mad
and want to get glad. it's mighty
nice to take along a little Red L. for
it will put ginger in your heels and
sugar in your toes. but this kind of
nose so the idea goes, hurrah, root
Red / will never put a rose in your
and vote for Red T."
Some of Pitman's best friends failed
to vote for him this time on account
of his long tenure in office but they
have decided they can't beat him and
don't care about beating him very
much anyway and they say now that
Red will do them for county clerk as
long as they live and they have about
decided TO make his election unani-
nous from this time on. II has made
a good official and he is a good man
with IT, Every Sunday morning Pitt
man teaches his Sunday school class;
in the afternoon he goes down to the
railroad camp and by the use Of an
interpreter he teaches a Mexican class
in the Bible. Two of the Mexicans
have professed religion and Joined the
| Baptist church in Marietta. When
he is out campaigning he goes to the
church on Sunday morning and if the
Sunday school superintendent is alb
sent Pitman gets right into the har-
ness and takes the lead.

FRIENDLESS RED MAN.

Since William Penn recognized the
rights of the Indians to the lands
they possessed, since he purchased
from them the property he desired
TO settle upon, the government of
this country has given recognition
to the Indian as possessing this coun-
try. 1t is said TO the credit of the
Indian that he never attacked the
colonists settled by Penn for the
reason that the Indian understood
William Penn to be their friend.
The Indian owned vast domain, he
was willing to share it with his white
friend. when his white friend showed
a disposition to treat the Indian as
having some rights. The shores Of
America were so attractive to the
people who loved freedom that en-
croachments We're made upon the In
dians. The red man was pushed from
one settlement to another His hunt
ing grounds and his mountain streams
were taken away from him by the
incoming whites. Finally those we
know Of the Indians were given the
country we occupy now. Their gov
ernments were recognized, our gov
ernment entered into treaties with
them as an evidence that the Indian
republics were recognized. The
whites kept on encroachlng, the In
dians began to give up their prop
erty, the federal government began

PLEDGE HAS A STRING
TIED TO 1T

Washington, May 1S.-Mexico has
promised to ayenge the death of
Private Parks. The Brazilian minis
ter has notified the state department
of promise from Huerta's secretary
of foreign affairs that he will punish
the guilty men, if he finds the kill
ing actually occurred within the
Mexican federal lines. Simultan-
eously Secretary Bryan announced
that the demands for Consul Silli-
mans release will again be presented
to the Huerta government. Agree
ment to punish Mexicans in the
Parks case is taken to mean that
Secretary Bryan's representations
have gone further than a mere re-
quest for information.

A GREAT IMPROVEMENT
Jacksonville and ST Petersburg Di-
vision Of the Coast Line has
Some Really, Truly Pas
senger Engines

When No. 80 came into Ocala yes
terday, it was hard TO tell which was
the most noticeable, the way the
engine walked up the grade from the
crossing or the smile Engineer Joe
Hogan wore as he leaned out of the
window of the big machine.
Five big and near up-to-date pas
senger engines, 23O to 234 inclusive,
have been sent from Florence, S. c.,
to this division. While these ma
chimes have been in use for some
time up in Carolina and are sent here
because bigger engines have replaced
them on that division, they are the
best yet seen in the way of passen-
ger engines, and are more suited to
the trains than anything that has
pulled them since the swift and
sturdy little narrow-gauge flyers
hauled the Florida Southern trains
twenty years ago.
The engines have been assigned as
follows: No. 230, George ,Estabrook; /;
231, Will Hogan; 232, Joe O,Ban-
non; 233, John Rimes; 234, Joe Ho-
gan.
The engineers are among the best
in the country, and the Star is glad
they have at last engines somewhere
near worth their talents. They are
all nightly pleased with the fine
machines, and it is needless to say
that they will get the best there is
out of them.
The five out-of-date machines
200 to 204-which have been pull
ing the trains with the occasional
help of a copperhead freighthog for
the last three years, have gone on
south. They were fine engines
twenty years ago, but now they have
so many fiat places on their wheels
that their tread was like the tinkle
of a cowbell. The engineers have
done good work with them however,
and We suppose that down south the
Coast Line has some more good men,
who will coax many more miles out
of the veterans before they go on the
scrapheap.
Now if we can only induce Mr..
Brand to send the passenger coaches
in present use on SO and 40 for use
on the Ethiopian Central, and re-
place them with cars that don't smell
like ginger mills, We will begin to
feel like the Coast Line is sending
something like a white mans trains
thru here
