Bryan a Cutter.

The Times heartily endorses
the following from the esteemed
Rock Hill Record:
"We have read no more wei
come news in many a day than
that w. ]. Bryan had resigned
as Secretary of State. That was
the only mistake that President
Wilson has made so far, when he
offered that portfolio to Bryan.
and now we are mighty glad
that the Nebraskan has dropped
out of the Presidents official
family. Bryan has always been
more or less of a disturbing ele-
ment in the Cabinet. He has
always considered himself a big
ger man" than Wilson, and ap-
parently has wanted the people
to feel that he has been the di-
recting force behind the Wilson
ADMINISTRATION. His fatuous in
timation that he resigns because
he fears the United States will
be plunged into war with Ger
many by reason of President
Wilson's present attitude is alb
surd. No man in this country
desires war less than President
Wilson, and no man will keep
us out of war better than our
President.
Bryan is a rank gutter and
he has not shown a particle of
courage of his latest step-dur-
most critical period in the his
tory of our country. He should
have held on to his post until
the present serious situation had
been solved, and he should have
exhibited more faith in his chief,
the President. We have never
been able to view Bryan as any
thing more than a politician, and
this step of his more than con-
firms this view of him. When
you say he is brilliant orator
you have said it all. He never
has been a statesman. His act
of self-elimination will strength
en President Wilson in the con-
fidence of the country, if that is
possible.

Keep Them Out.

1t seems, from what can be
gathered from the newspapers.
that street carnivals have been
knocking at the door of the city
of Columbia, and that after
hearing from the business men
the council decided not to open
the door to them.
This looks good, and we are
glad that these frauds are catch
ing it in a good many other
places. People are having their
eyes opened to the evils incident
to carnivals, and they are not
having the walk over that they
used to have. Greenwood got
her fill long ago, and it is not
likely that she will have any
more trouble along this line.
The shows that many of them
have are indecent, and from a
financial point they are injurious.
To hear the carnival people
talk they are all good, and their
promises of what they will and
will not do are all that could be
asked, but there is a wide differ
nce.between their promise and
the real thing. Greenwood Jour
nal.

A Year Without a Summer.

The year 1916 was known
throughout the United States as
the year without a summer.
January of that year was so
mild that most people would
have let their furnaces go out
had they possessed any; and
February was only occasionally
colder. March and April coaxed
the buds and flowers out, and
May was a winter month with
ice and snow. BY the end of
May everything perishable had
been killed by the cold, and the
young leaves had been stripped
from the trees. June was as
cold as May. Both snow and
ice were common throughout
the month all over the corn belt,
and after having planted corn
two or three times the farmers
threw up their hands. Snow
fell ten inches deep in Vermont.
The following winter was the
hardest the people of the United
States have ever known. One
had to have a stockade around
ones smokehouse. - st. Louis

THE WORLDS GREATEST HERO.
BY b. c. Blankcn,hip.

There is a general supposition
among the majority of people
that heroes originate only in bat
tie and time of war, but this
idea is erroneous. Some of our
greatest heroes are heroes of
peace. One, especially, do we
have reference to here and be-
lieve him to he paramount Will
liam Jennings Bryan.
Three times Mr.. Bryan has at
tempted to capture the presi-
dency and pilot his nation thru
a tide of peace and prosperity.
Realizing that he could do-more
and be in closer touch with his
people as Secretary Of State than
in the Presidents chair, Mr..
Bryan sat at the great Democrat
ic convention in 1912 and used
his influence in nominating Mr..
Wilson as a candidate for the
presidency.
Mr.. Bryan has never believed
in war and has always advocated
peace. Nearly thirty times has
Mr.. Bryan made peace treaties
with the principal nations of the
world. On this last occasion,
Mr.. Bryan did all he could in a
peaceful and eloquent way to
settle the differences between
this country and Germany, but
to no avail. Wilson agreed with
his Secretary of State until re-
recently, but it seems that Mr..
Wilson has let the paid Anglo
American subsidized press pull
him, along with the rest of his
cabinet, into almost war with
Germany, because of the fate of
the Lusitania. Mr.. Bryan real
ICES that Germany is not Spain.
Bryan has retired to pri-
vate life, bat let us not forget
the brilliant victories he has won
for US. The undying love he
had for peace and humanity
should ever burn brightly within
us. He was, and is, universally
acknowledged the greatest ora
tor of today. Our nation, in time
to come, will erect to this man a
marble shaft Signalling the
greatest hero of all times.

with sour bile crashes into it, breaking
it up. This is when you feel that awful

According to reports received
by the State superintendent of
education, II districts in 26. of
the South Carolina counties have
already accepted the local option
compulsory school attendance law
enacted at the 1915 session of
the Legislature. This measure,
known as the Sinkler-Hawkins
bill, provided three months of
introduction by the various dis
tricts. ~ -. .-'.--
Six cities and towns with pop
ulation above 1850 are included
in the list. Spartanburg filed a
petition signed by a majority of
it's qualified electors and thus
was the first city in the State to
accept the principle to go into
operation on July l. Columbia,
Greenwood, Abbeville, Florence,
and Winnsboro voted almost SOL
idly for the law on June 8. Per-
haps the greatest interest in the
compulsory school election was
shown in Greenwood. where the
vote was 27f for and 27 against.
Among State-aided high schools,
Winnsboro alone has so far re-
ported acceptance of the law,
although it is certain that other
high school districts will be in
cluded in later reports. r

Conviction of Lawson
Virtually Set Aside

DENVER. July John r. Lawson's 8
conviction of murder and sentence to
life Imprisonment was virtually set
aside in the Colorado Supreme Court
here, 1t became known today.
Judge CRANKY Hillyer. who presided
at the strike leaders recent trial, was
ordered by the court to show why he is
not disqualified from sitting in three
cases growing out Of the Walsenburg
strike riots.
Aftidavlts of previous employment by
the coal companies and prejudice
against union miners filed in the Wal
senburg cases, are the same as those
presented in the appeal by the Lawson
defense for a new trial.
The supreme courts putting the bur-
den of proof on Hillyer was interpreted
as foreCastlng a favorable decision on
Lawson's appeal for a new trial when II
reaches that court. Hillyer is expected
