peoples and the Farmers and Me-
chanics-both conducted along con-
seryative yet liberal lines. We know
of no better method by which a young
man or woman working for wages can
get a start in life than to take stock
in such an institution. 1t would be
interestin gto know just how impor-
tant part the building and loan
association has played in the develop
ment of this town-Gaffney Ledger.
We have remarked on that fact sew
eral times before and we have been
hoping that some OF our live and pro-
gressive young business men would
axe the matter up and organize a
real and true building and loan asso-
citation. One that would encourage

ENROLL AND REGISTER.

We hope that every Democrat in
Newberry county, and in South Car
oliaa, will enroll under the new pri-
mary rules adopted by he State con-
vention. 1t is tAe du Of every citi-
zen to exercise the right of suffrage
f@r the best interest Of his county and
ate as he sees it, and he people
should enroll, so as to be in position
to cast their ballots, and then they
should go to the polls and vote. In
urging the importap"e of this ma ter,
We do not have in view the election
or the defeat of any man or any set
of men, but simply the desire that in
t3e governmen, of our State-in The
choice of those who will be in charge
OF the administration of the affairs of
our state-the will of the entire De-
mocracy may be regis. cred.
And not only should our people en-
roll, but those who are not registered
should register. AS we have frequent
ly pointed out, there have been gen
eral elections in the town of Newberry
III which it would have been an easy
ma ter for the Democratic nominee
4or alderman in some ward 10 be de-
feated-simply because Democrats
did not go to the polls and vote in
the general election.

talk which has been largely in eyi-
dence within the past week, tha the
governor had refused to allow the
Sou Carolina troops to participate
in the Augusta encampment, in he
effort to make it appear hat there
was a breach between the governor
and the war department. AS ma ter
Gf fact, what the governor said was
not that he refused to let the troops
&C 10 the proposed Angus a encamp-
ment, but that he did not decide one
way or the other just at the time,
taking the mater under consideration
awaiting certain developments. The
governors words in reply to General
Moofe's letter, were:
''In reply, l beg to say that, in
view of the present Mexican situa-
ton, do not think the South Car
olina troops should leave the State
to participate in this encampment
If the peace conference now being
held should result satisfac orily, |
will hen take the mater up up for
further consideration.
The war department does not give
its reasons for change in i s plans,
but, whatever its reasons, it seems to
have taken a course which has en-
,irely vindicated the course of the
governor in holding the matter under
consideration and a great deal Of
newspaper sarcasm and eloquence
nave gone for naught.

We were present a the Whitmire
meeting on last Saturday when Gov.
Blease spoke. We heard the tilt be-
,.ween Mr.. William Coelman and the
governor. We regret that it look
place. We are constrained to say that
we do not think the governor was JUS
tilted in his a tack on Mr. Coleman.
We lave known Mr.. Coleman for a
good many years. We know some
thing of the work he is doing at Whit
mire. While not political supporter
Of the governor, as a mark of respect
tc him, he came down 20 the meeting
to hear him speak when he was
guest of the town. We do not think
that candidate for office nor an Of
fee seeker has right or is justified
in making personal attack on pri-
vate citizens who happen not to be po-
Iitical supporters OF them. Mr. Cole
man is private citizen and has
right to his own opinions The gov
ernor produced no evidence tha. Mr..
Coleman had used any undue infu-
ence to prejudice the operatives in his
mill against the governor. We feel
the incident was very unfortunate.
From all that We have seen and
heard Of Mr.. Coleman and his mill he
has been kind to the employees of the
mill and has done what he could for
their comfort and betterment and
they all hold him in high esteem. He
has encouraged the building of good
school and tae leTying of taxes to
main ain it, the greater part of which
are paid by the property O.: the mill.
He has built a fine office building and
in it has provided hall which is used
by the operatives for lodge hall and
any other meetings which they may
desire to hold. We esteem Mr.. Cole
man as a high toned gentleman and
do not think that the governor should
have made the attack en- him which
lie did. Or that he was justified in do
ing it, and We regre. that he did. We
can not see where it can accomplish
any good.

THE ENCAMPNENT.

Columbia dispatches carry the an
nouncemen; that the war department,
has called off the joint encampmelt
o. North Carolina, Southt Carolina,
Georgia and Florida troops, in Au-
gusta, and is providing for the ell
campment OF he troops of each Of
the States in their own State. So far
as South Carolina is concerned, We
believe that this action OF the war de-
partment is better for South Carolina
troops. Augusta is just across the
river from South CaroIiaa, and an
encampment in Augusta could not
possibly hold any more pleasure or
profit for the militia OF this Sta;e than
an encampment at some suitable place
wi hin this State. AS matter of fac,
there are any number of places in
South Carolina at which We believe
the great majority of the South Car
olina troops would rather encamp
tnan in Augusta.

too, will no doubt end the newspaper

PLA AYERS ALREADY
 DRAFTED BY MAJORS
Organized Baseball Has Already Drafted Players But Will Announce List Until Each Has Been Sgned-Action
 is Taken to Foil Federals
Dy REUBEN A. LEWIS

THE Federal league scare has
 forced organized ball to adopt
 . new measures. Players nave al ready been drafted from the minor leagues by the major league clubs. but the list will not be promulgated until every man drafted has been signed to @ contract. An official an- nouncement to this effect was made yesterday by the national commission. It was known that the Federal league would await the selections of the big leagues and then attempt to sign the selected men to outlaw con tracts However. as there is no way of finding just what players have re- eeived the call, orgaaized ball feels safe.
 It is cinch that sofne Baron mas already been drafted. There are too many likely prospects m the pen nant winners not to draw a bid It will not be many days before some agent of the majors will approach the man selected and sign him to a 1915 eoiiti aN'. It II lS DtiitNeu ttf1t elthtf Johnson or Brown will receive the lucky call
 The agents of the majors musr hustle southward or they will miss the men, who will scatter to all parts of the country once the season is over. But if the majors adhere to the policy of not announcing the liat of drafted players until all have been signed. it may be late in the fall before the lucky players are known.
 It is not believed that the Southern league clubs will adopt the same policy. After the majors have had their drafts the Class A and Class A leagues follow. selecting their re- cruits from circuits Of lower cIassifi- cation. Molesworth annually goes to Cincinnati before the Southern league drafting season opens. His mission is to confer with his numerous friends out on scout duty. who Up him off to likely players.
 The Birmingham leader depends largely upon the advice of his friends among the scouts. Their tips have proved profitable fin the past and should not go away this year Moles- worth will draft a likely number, as he wants to fortify the Barons against any direful situation next spring.
 
 When Chairman August Hermann announced that there would be no
