KNOWS How to Investigate

Believing that the affairso the State
hospital for the in~an are not managed
just as they should be, Governor Man
ming engaged competent specialist
from Philadelphia to make thorough
and impartial examination of the insti-
tn ion, reporting in detail to him. In
employing this specialist, Governor
Manning shows that he knows how to
20 straight to the bottom of things,
such an investigation being altogether
d .void of politics and "white wash. T"
In his report on the asylum the spe-
cialist stated that ''the institution does
not in any way conform to the
standards existing in amodern hospital
for the insane. Governor Manning
has laid the report before the members
of the general assembly and requested
them to inspect the institution Thurs,
day of this week. This is the proper
course to pursue. 1t is really more
important that the asylum be inspected
than Winthrop, Clemson or the other
State institutions. The Legislature
should spare no expense in putting the
asylum in frst-class condition.

It Augurs Well.

We were pleased to see that Cover
ror Manning and the chief of police OF
Columbia had "a conference Monday
concerning better enforcement OF
law in the capital city. This indi-
Gates that under Governor Manning 8
administration there will be an improve
ment of conditions throughout the
State. particularly in the large cities.
1t will next be in order for the sheriff
and chief of police of Charleston to get
in touch with the governor to the end
that the deplorable conditions in that
city be improved. The officer of the
law, it matters not what office he fills,
wno is conscientiously endeavoring to
do his duty will welcome all the coop
GRAFTON that the chief executive can
give.
If the people of Charleston-we mean
e law abiding element of the citizen
ship-really wish to improve conditions
they can now have the law enforced.
We feel confident that the present
governor will give hearty assistance.
Let's await developments.

A Wise Suggestion.

The suggestion by Senator Tillman,
that no additional battleships be con-
structei for our navy until the present
war in Europe closes, is a wise one.
Why expend many millions of dollars
in constructing vessels that are practl-
calIy obsolete before they embark upon
their maiden voyage? BY waiting a
few months, or few years, if you please,
we can profit by the experience OF
other nations. Up to this time, it ap-
pears that the large, unwieldy battle
ships of slow speed are practically
worthless whenit comes to getting re-
suits in an active, vigorous campaign
upon water. After the present war
closes, it will be time enough to in
crease our navy, should such a policy
be adopted, and then it can be done
intelligently.

Improve Home Surroundings.

1t is not yet too late to transplant
trees and shrubery. Before the sea,
son passes, add to the beauty of the
home by planting here and there about
the yard trees and ornamental shrub,
berry that will render the premises
more attractive. Improvements. of
this kind can be made at minimum
of expense, and they add hundreds OF
dollars to the appearance and rea
value of place.
AS long as nearby forests are full OF
small oaks and elms that can be had
without cost there is absolutely no ex-
cuse for the grounds about the' home
to 90 unprotected from the besming
rays of. the summer sun. A few dol
lars sent to the nearest nursery will
bring by return mail ornamental trees
and shrubbery that will add tenfold to
the appearance of the home grounds.
Make home the dearest and most at
tractive spot ON earth. Let no place,
so far as it lies in your power, be more
attractive to the children than home.
Children are not apt to go out from a
bright, happy. beautifully environed
home to seek bad associates.

Engenders Law-Abiding Spirit.

The very presence of law abiding
governor in Columbia engenders law
abiding spirit throughout the State.
Since the Inauguration of Governor
Manning, even Charleston has begun to
set things to rights by so reforming the
social clubs that they will conform to
the dispensary law. At no other time
during the past four years have these
clubs felt the necessity of observing
the law. When the chief executive
himself shows proper regard for law
the rank and file of the citizenship of
the State are inspired to regard the
law.
