There can be no honest denial of
the fact President Wilson has chang
ed his views on the Panama tolls
question, or that he has reversed him.
self on the matter of loyalty to plat
form. He once held that it was the
sacred duty Of every public official to
stand squarely by the party platform
on which he was elected, and in our
judgment he was right. We cannot
see it any other way than that the
platform is a pledge, and that disloy-
atty to a platform is an evidence Of
bad faith. In the present case 1t ap-
pears that the platform was made
by a small committee, and most Of 1t
was built without a great deal of
knowledge on the part Of the people
who put it forth as to it's contents. 1t
looks pretty hard that people should
be bound to an important principle in
such a careless manner; but at the
same time it is difficult to conceive Of
justifiable excuse for the man who
though to his loss has sworn, will
break his plighted word" 1t is easy
enough to see wherein this plank
should not have been in the platform,
but 1t is difficult to see a good way OF
getting around due obedience to it.
About the best that can be said prob
ably, is that the plank is inconsistent
with the fundamental principles of
the Democratic party, and is in clear
conflict with other planks of the same
platform that are equally binding.

- The children of the Baptist Sum
day school enjoyed an Easter egg hunt
on the church grounds Saturday after
noon.
The Church of the Good Shepherd
and Trinity church were both decor
ated on account Of Easter, and in both
churches there were special services
appropriate to the occasion.
The children Of the A. r. P. Sab
bath school were treated to an egg
hunt on the grounds Of the old
church, last Saturday afternoon.
Quite a large number of children
participated and they had a great
time.

the Church Of the Good Shepherd the

There is a statute that requires
municipal corporations to publish
monthly itemized reports Of receipts
and expenditures. This statute has
not been regarded by the town Of
Yorkville. The town charter requires
that the council annually publish a
statement Of receipts and expendi-
lures. No such report has been made
for years, and why, no one has ever
explained. 1t is important to the peo-
pie, the members Of this corporation.
that such a report be made in order
that the town may know where 1t
stands. If such a report cannot be
secured in any other way, it will be
the right thing to resort to mandamus
proceedings.
The announcement Of Mr.. Mason
Mcconnell for mayor, gives the peo-
pie of Yorkville a choice between
three candidates for that office, the
other two being DR.. r. A. Bratton and
Mr.. ]. C. Wilborn. The issues stated
by Mr.. Mcconnell are the ones being
most generally talked in the town;
but there are still other matters re-
ceiving consideration, and Of course
they will be duly discussed as the
time for the election approaches. In
the meantime the columns Of The En-
quirer are open to any citizen Of the
town who may care to discuss the sit
uation; the only conditions being that
all communications must be duly sign
ed by the writer's thereof, and must
be free from unpleasant personalities.

Having been defeated in his race
for the senate, and having lost his
chance for reelection to congress by
reason of the other race, Capt. Hob
son is now doing what he can to Sc
cure action on his resolution looking
to an amendment to the constitution
of the United States intended to bring
about national prohibition. The reso-
luton is now in the hands of COM
mittee that is in no hurry about max
ing report upon it, and although the
understanding is that the captain pro-
poses to do all in his power to bring
the matter to some kind Of test vote.
the chances Of his success are rather
slim. This is an election year and it
is believed that a majority Of the
members of congress have about as
many issues already as they care to
contend with.

ter himself, but other opponents of
exemption repeal pointed to the fact
that Great Britain in 1909 had agreed
to preferential treatment for Colom-
bian vessels because Of Colombia s
peculiar relation to the canal as evil
dence that Great Britain and Presi-
dent Wilson are now putting new
construction on the words Ito all ma
tions" in the clause of the Hay
Pauncefote treaty, guaranteeing equal
treatment to the vessels OF the ma
tions of the world using the canal.
Their claim is that these words were
not intended to apply to the United
States, the owner of the canal, and
they will urge the admission of Great
Britain in the Colombian matter as
proof. Mr.. Bryan said the treaty
signed at Bogota employs the Ian
guage of the Root-Cortes ship canal
treaty granting the use of the water
ways to the troops, materials for war
and ships Of war Of the republic OF
Colombia, without paying any duty
to the United States in case Of an in
ternational war between Colombia
and another country" Mr.. Bryan
would not say whether the acceptance
Of all concerned Of the tripartite
would solve all Of the problems pend
ing between Panama, Colombia and
the United States.

1t is beginning to look as if the
breech that developed in the house
between the president and Mr.. Clark
is to be permanent, and the fight is to
continue until there is a complete
drawing of the lines with the support
ers of the president on one side and
his opponents on the other. 1t has
been very we'll understood all along
that although the hatchet was appar-
emily buried after the Baltimore con-
vention. it was not buried so deeply
that it could not be scratched out on
short notice, and the surprise is that
the statu quo continued until the tolls
question was raised. Many leading
Republican papers are Of course doing
all they can to make the breach per-
manent and not a few Democratic pa
pers are aligning themselves against
the president. Most of the leading
newspapers throughout the south are
disposed to back the president in
whatever he sees proper TO do; but
throughout the northeast and in many
sections of the northwest there is an
evident feeling that the political trend
is in the direction of drawing a sharp
alignment as between the Wilson
Democrats and the Clark-Hearst
Democrats, and there are indications
that the fight is to continue to final
settlement

The action of the Villa Carranza
faction in eXpelling Spanish residents
from the territory being conquered by
them is apparently giving more or less
concern to the government of the
United States, more especially because
Spain has appealed to this country to
look after the welfare of her people.
Throughout Mexico there are large
numbers of Spaniards who belong to
the wealthy ruling class. Generally
they have been supporters of Diaz and
Huerta, and the feeling of the Consti-
tutiOnalists runs strongly against
them. Information as to the first or
ders against these Spaniards was to
the effect that they had been told to
leave the country. and not to try to
take their wealth with them. This
brought great protest of course, and
the order was somewhat modified in
effect, if not in terms. Now Villa says
that all Spaniards are not objection
able, but only those who have shown
unduly partisan activities on the side
of the enemy. He also says that an
other reason for ordering the eXpul-
sion of the Spaniards is to prevent the

- Columbia, April 13: Agricultural
development and the Improvement of
highways go hand in hand with the
automobile, according to statistics
gathered by the state department of
agriculture In counties where the
greatest improvement has been made
in the highways there are the greatest
sales of automobiles. More automo-
biles are found in the distinctly farm
ing counties" than in any other sec
tions Of the state. Under the law the
commissioner Of agriculture is author
lied to collect statistics on the auto
mobile sales in South Carolina. A
rough estimate places the number of
cars in the state at more than $4,000.
Reports on sales have been received
this year from 13 counties. In these
counties during the first three months
of 1914, 2S9 automobiles have been pur-
chased The law authorizing the CEN
sus of automobiles was passed in 1906.
During the first three months SO cars
have been purchased by the citizens of
Aiken county, making the total for
that county 312. There are 842 cars In
Marlboro county, which is the richest
agricultural county in the state. There
was one car registered in 1906 in that
county, The sales so far this year
number SO. In Newberry county %
machines have been purchased since
the first of the year. There were 40
purchased in 1912. In Bamberg, %
machines have been bought in 1914.
There is a general tendency on the
part Of the farmers to purchase and
use automobiles" said Commissioner
Watson, discussing the reports.
