Sumter Item. October 9Th.
South Carolina seems TO be about to
embark oo voyage 90 unchartered
seas, and the worst thing we see about
the matter is the fact that McLaurin,
Stevenson, Mcqueen, La wson and sew
eral others We might name, who have
contributed so much to shaping the
remedial legislation DOW under consid-
GRAFTON retire from Office oc November
g. It would De great if there we're in
Marlboro, Chesterfield and Darlington,
Democratic nominees who would see
their way TO step aside tor these men
so they could continue in the service
Of the state in this emergency. and we
are inclined to think also that Senator
Tiliman might do we'll TO resign just at
this iuncture in order to make way for
some one who is physically and men
tally able to represent the state in the
United States Senate. This is a juno
ture when South Carolina has need OF
the best talent and experience at her
command.-Yorkyill ENQUIRER.
