EXPRESSING GRATITUDE

We have heard men say that the
State OF South Carolina should dc
something for, Messrs Pollock and
Jennings. In Greenwood purse IS
being made up to send them q loving
cup each. A prominent farmer OF
this county 'phoned this paper Thurs
day afternoon and offered to start q
subscription list to raise $1,000 to
get some fitting testimonial to show
these gentlemen the appreciation Of
Anderson county for the work done
In the recent campaign.
Without consultation with these
gentlemen, we would say that while
they might appreciate some simple
testimonial OF ''eem. yet they
would prefer 70 people to endow
scholarships for anderson college or
at Frazer Academy and let these
scholarships bear the names OF the
candidates for senate who stumped
tho state for the cause which they
championed.
There Is another who should be re-
membered by the people of the state
and that is DR.. John @. Clinkscales.
In acknowledging that he had failed
to get into the second race. DR..
Cltnkscales says:

The central operators were as obllg-

RICHARD L MANNING

A few days abO In commenting upon
the candidacy Of Richard l. Manning
this psper said editorially:
We have long known him to be a
man o. character. Of vision, OF sym
pathy, OF honesty and of reliability. /.
And we iielieve that II he is elected
governor riere viii be in that onice
man wnCm every South Carolinian
Will In t'mG come 10 love. EIa :s 2
man of santle manners but OF un-
doubted courage: he Is man who is
proud OF his .s:te, proud of the men
whose blood flows in his veins and be-
fore he would be guilty OF one ignoble
act as governor Of the state, he would
lay down his life.
There are other splendid men In
the,race for governor and we will not
discount their ability. their capability
or their character. but we believe in
truth that the man who would most
honor South Carolina is Richard I.
Manning of Sumter. who should be
permitted to come into his own, for
he would have been governor long
age ,,.sssa e,.t
It ts with peculiar pleasure. there
fore that we can now all the more
unrcservedly commend+h him to the peo-
pie who read this paper. Mr.. Man
ming did not receive his natural
atrsngth In tina ars. primary tor ma
ny Of his supporters. not realizing his
general strength, were induced to
vote for others for whom there was
o sentimental wave.
We, therefore, feel quite sure that
Mr. Manning will be the next govern
or. OF his opponent. we have no
criticism except that we think Mr..
Manning is the bigger. the broader.
the more, suitable man, that he can
handle problems and propositions OF
any magnitude and that he can yet
appreciate the needs of the people.
We are for Manning. because
He is q practical and successful
farmer and knows what the farmer
needs, He is working for better fer
tilisers, and for better country con-
dluons.
He Is practical and successful
business man and can administer the
affairs of the State in the best man
nerS
He IL a level headed man. OF sound
Judgment. with fine administrative
ability; he ia the kind Of man that
gets things done
He is iD a courageous man and
he is an honest man: he does not form
his views just to phase crowd. nor
does he pretend to be one thing to
one man and another thing to an
other
He will enforce tho law on the sta
tute. books without fayoring one man
3ovcr another, or one town or county
over auother--
3. And becaush, with MIR. Manning as
governor South Carolina will prosper,
will be law abiding, will be well gov
1erned and you will never be sorry that
iypn voted for him.

!. TRANSFER

Washingto on, n Jan. 6.-The announce
n1ent that Great Britain is about to
transfer Sir Lionel Garden, its minis
ter at the City of Mexico. was re-
garded by official Washington as a
substantial manifestation of the pur-
pose Of the British government to re-
move every obstruction to the execu-
ton of the plans Of President Wilson
for dealing with the Mexican situa-
ton.
At the state department it was de-
MED protest had been made by the
United States to the British foreign
Office against any of the acts or ut
terances ascribed to Minister Garden.
From other sources, however, it was
learned Ambassador Page did seek in
formation at the British foreign office
some time ago regarding the attitude
of its representative in Mexico. About
the time this occurred similar Of
fetal statement was issued in Lon
don repudiating a statement attribut-
ed to Sir Lionel, alleging that Presi-
dent Wilson's policy towards Mexico
would not have been adopted had he
not been in ignorance Of the facts.
Officials here expect the transfer OF
the British minister, in view of the
lack of sympathy he Is said to. have
shown with the American line of ac-
ton, to have a beneficial effect in
impressing the Huerta government
with the fact there is to be no division
among the powers from which 1t
might expect to profit.
Regarding the renewal Of rebel ac-
tivity in the neighborhood of Tampico,
a. cablegram from Rear Admiral
Fletcher, received late yesterday,
though dated Saturday, said it was
feared another attack was to be made
upon the town. In anticipation Of the
trouble the German cruiser Bremen
has gone from Vera Cruz to Tanpico.
From the west coast, Captain Brad

They were almost at the Gregory's

This time six sank and never appear

The five survivors owe their lives
to their remarkable strength and en-
durance. All are magnificent physical

rescuing distance Of the Gregory.
Roberts and Williams jumped first.
They swan $50 yards to the boat
through mountainous seas. They
brought the small boat to within
twenty five yards Of the Gregory, then
Buck dived bearing a life line.
BY this time Williams and Roberts
were almost as exhausted as the
survivors in the boat. 1t capsized for
the last time with six men clinging
to it. The hands of one were frozen
to the gunwhale. Buck tore him away
and swan with him to the ladder of
the Gregory. There Buck found the
man he bore was dead. He let the
BODY sink back into the ocean and re-
turned to the other survivors.

New York, n. Y, Jan. Give OF
the missing twenty-seven of the crew
OF the oil tank steamer Oklahoma,
which broke in two off Sandy Hook
Sunday, were brought into port alive.
They were picked up in q lifeboat
Sunday afternoon 10y the Booth line
steamer Gregory, after having been
adrift in the bitter cold for six hours.
The rescue of these men accounts for
sixteen Of the original crew of thirty.
The liner Bavaria rescued eight,
and three were found dead in a life
boat by the revenue cutter Seneca.
These five confirm the story that
the great tank ship parted without
warning. the break occurring amid
ships. The weather was very stormy.
An enormous sea broke aboard when
with an. agony Of groans and creaks
the vessel buckled. apparently sus-
pended on two huge waves by the
stem and stern. Two boats got away.
One was crammed full. This Is pre-
sumably the one in which the Seneca
found three dead and none alive.
The other boat. the one which the
five were picked up, contained
eleven men when 1t got away. The
eleven were still in the boat after a
long battle with the waves when the
Gregory was sighted. 1t was nearing
the steamer when the boat capsiZed
and all were thrown into the icy wat
ers. They succeeded in righting the
boat and all. nearly frozen. painfully
climbed in again.
This happened again and again. BY
the time they got alongside the Greg
ory all were on the verge of collapse.

BLOOD SHED IN
TACOMA STRIKE

Tacoma, Wash, Jan. 6.--Blood was
shed yesterday in the worst fight of
the Tacoma smelter strike. Bricks
and stones few, clubs Ware welded
and a. number of mems beads We're
cracked. Three strikers Were arrest
ed. F-'a II .. .. ~
Fifty armed deputy shefiffs and the
town marshal of Ruston were escort
ing a number of worEmen to the plant,
which had been closed because of the
strike. Strikers, with women and
girls, lined the way taunting the men.
Soon there was free-for- all fight,
which was finally quelled.
There was an exchange of shots
last night, between strikers barricad-
ed in house and sharpshooters act
ing as deputy sheriffs.
