OUR ASSURANCE

Woodrow Wilson, the President, is a
Virginian
William G. McAdoo, the Secretary
of the Treasury, is a Georgian.
Thomas Matt Gregory, Attorney Cen
eral, is a Texan.
Joseph Daniels, Secretary of the
Navy, is a North Carolinian.
David Franklin Houston, Secretary
of Agriculture, is also a North Caro-,
linian.
W. P. G. Harding, of the Federal Re-
serve Board, is an Albanian
John Shelton Williams, Comptroller
of the Currency and member of the
Federal Reserve Board, is virginian
With so imposing an array of dis
tinguished Southerners composing the
administration it does seem that the
South's best interests would be pro-
tected, and we believe that they will
be, so far as it is possible. No South
ern man of Intelligence and patriotism
would needlessly embarass the Pres
ident, and the people of the South are
standing solidly behind him, at the
same time it is natural and it is right
for the South to protest against bear
ing more than her share of the financ-
ial burdens of the European war. Al
ready within the memory of many liv-
ing, the South has passed through the
very ashes of desolation and ruin, and
she MUST BE SPARED another such
blow. We ask for no PARTIALITY
We only protest against DISCRIMINA.

Another Sees the Way

Bearing out the belief of the Times
Recorder that an afternoon paper is
more capable of serving the people and
its readers, the Columbus Enquirer
Sun is the latest Georgia journal t.
change from the morning edition to
the afternoon paper. The Columbus
paper made its change Monday, and
from now on it will reach its readers
in the afternoon, and cover the world
of news as only an evening paper can
do.
Several months ago this paper made
the change which has proven wise and
we believe, to the best interest of the
reading public in the section where
the Times Recorder circulates.
An afternoon paper serves news
while it is news, and it is this feature
of journalism which the public wants,
and actually demands. Circulating
throughout its territory in the after
noon, being read early in the evening.
it comes at time when a newspaper
should reach its patrons. The adver
Users have already seen the adyant
age of the afternoon paper, for it is
plainly proven by the increases which
are shown over the morning edition.
Every newspaper should be made a
home paper-a gazette where the
youngest to the Oldest may read with
interest and profit, and to be an ideal
home newspaper it is essential that it
reach the home at the time when the
family enjoys reading most, and it is
this pleasure which the afternoon pa
per gratifies.
1t is necessary that newspapers
makes these changes for the people
demand, and any servant must at least,
give ear to their wishes

they would get under the proposed
substitute; but this was not satisfac
tory. Nothing would do but continue
the Office with reduced salary, and
this was impossible under the ruling
of the House and of the Senate.
The responsibility for the defeat OF
this measure must rest upon the two
interests both of which are personal
represented by the gentlemen opposing
tie bill.
In the judgement of the writer, the
bill in question was in no sense a 10
cal bill, and notwithstanding the FACT
that the point had not been raised ID
the Senate or the House of Represent
atives, the governor had been thor
odghly advised as to the situation and
declared the bill a local bill and be,
cause of want of proper advertisement
he would veto the bill, long before the
bill ever reached him. In fact it has
never reached him, and never will.
Herein Is the Comedy of Errors"
and I wish to say this much so thai
the responsibility for the loss to the
county of Sumter of some three or four
thousand dollars by reason of the de
feat Of this bill should rest where Il
belongs. r. L. MAYNARD.

FACTS ARE FACTS.

1t was indeed an interesting story
which The Times-Recorder related IN
its news columns concerning the yield,
growth, cost and ultimate value Of a
Sumter county tobacco crop.
$4,000 pounds of high grade tobacco
raised in 1915. Total cost of produc
ton, 4 cents per pound. Time consum.
ed in planting, reaping, curing and
marketing crop, ninety days. Value
on the market anywhere from II to 80
cents per pound This is the story
the facts as seen from the enterprise
of R. R. Rogers prosperous farmer
living about six miles from Americas
When these figures are totaled, the
clear profit to this farmer will beea,
He will have realized a far be-
ter crop in financial way than if he
had worked the feecy staple TO its best
possible standard
The way has been opened for the
Southern planter No longer can he
cry-what else can we do? A sure
certain and unfailing path has been
opened to him, and with this readily
apparent advantage he has the means
at his disposal which will free him
from the bondage which chained hin
to subjugation and denied him the nat
ural rights to grow, progress and sue,
coed.
Cotton is a magnificent crop. Its
splendor has been sung by the poets
and it has been the subject for the Ell
oquent plea of the Southerner But
"self-preservation is the first law o
nature" and in an exercise of thi;
right, the Southern farmer will per
form duty to himself, to his people
and to the country.
Though the change may come slow
let it come consistently steadily anc
by all means, certainly.
