we know MIR. Manning truly, he is ex-
actly the kind of man to refuse to
allow the office OF Governor to be
used for partisan purposes in a aues-
tion specifically referred to the cleo
tors and he has been controlled by re-
spect for the office and by considera-
tions of good taste and common Justice
to the people which his critic appears
to have been incapable of discerning.
Had Governor Manning flung the
office OF Governor into the scale in
the pending contest he would not
have proved possession of the scrupu-
lous sense of fair play that The State
believes him to have and he could not
have spoken personally without prac-
tically compromising his office.
Finally, whatever the decision on
September IA, 1t will be Governor
Manning's duty to administer the law.
Partisanship against prohibition would
subtract from hs influence and power
in enforcing prohibition If 1t should
be enacted and whatever his personal
opinion. his first duty is to guard and
conserve the dignity and efficiency of
his office.
Governor Manning will go to the
polls and vote against the abolition of
local option; to deny or question that
would be to charge him with
recreancy to his we'll established
record, but he is wholly right in de-
clintrx to discuss the subject at this

GOV. MANNING's POSITION.

Columbia, Sept. 7.-Gov. Manning
today made the following signed state
ment: i,-t
MY attention has been called to an
editorial In The News and Courier this
morning which deserves notice.
When the referendum bill was
passed by the legislature last winter
I signed the bill feeling that it was
the right Of the people of the State to
pass on this question. During the
campaign last summer I declared in
favor Of local option. have not
changed my position on that question.
"The legislature. in passing the ref
erendum bill fixed tho time Of the
election in an off year SO that the
question at issue would not be involv-
ed with personal issues or any other
issues. l have felt that 1t was the
right Of the people to decide this ques-
tion on its merits alone. I have felt
that 1t was not proper for me to take
part in the campaign involving this
matter.
"As governor 1 will enforce the laws
as they stand on the statute books
This am endeavoring to do with
every means at my command, and this
propose to do as long as 1 am gov
ernor. Rich'd l. Manning"

high school. This class will not be as
large as it was last year; but it is be-
lleved that excellent work will be
done. Many of the graduates of last
years class are going to college,
which will reduce the number of those
In attendance. This class, however, is
fixture for two reasons: The Board
mas in mind the incorporating of the
class at some future date into the
regular high school system; (2) a
very careful investigation into the ed
ucational sentiments and practices has
led the executive officer of the board
to more confirmed conviction that
this course is the proper one and will
become more and more customary as
time advances.
The book lists have been issued for
several days and it Will facilitate mat.
ters very greatly to have the pupils
provide themselves with their books
and material before the schools open.

A CAMPAIGN PLEDGE RECALLED

A CAMPAIGN PLEDGE RECALLED.
lt is difficult to credit the news re-
ports from Columbia that Governor
Manning has declined to make a state
ment giving his views as to whether or
not I'm his judgment Statewide pro-
hioition is good thing for South Car
oiina now.
Barely one year ago The News and
Courier (and probably other newspa-
pers) was printing advertisements In
which Mr.. Manning then a candidate
for Governor. was represented as
pledging himself. IF elected
IL. To the enforcement OF every
law on the statute books. including the
law against Race Track Gambling.
"2. To respect the verdicts of our
iuries.
20. To support Local Option Liquor
Legislation.
-. To be tho Impartial Governor of
all the people. regardless OF class or
faction.
IS. To give our State a Clean Busi-
ness Administration"
The pledge which Mr. Manning gave
last summer to support local option
legislation left nothing to be desired
In the way of positiveness.
The importance which Mr.. Manning
attached to that plank OF his platform
was indicated by the place which he
gave IL.
How. then. does 1t happen that Gov
ernor Manning Is now represented as
having nothing to say on the subject of
the election TO be held next Tuesday?
Evidently there has been q misun-
derstanding somewhere; but where?
The reports as to Governor Manning's
present attitude make Ills position ap-
pear an awkward one. to say the least.
He owes II to himself as well as to
those who supported him last summer
to clear up the matter without delay.
The Columbia state of September
sth. commenting on the News and
Courier's attack. covers the ground
admirably:
GOVERNOR: NOT PARTISAN.

campaign The State is not informed
but, Notwithstanding his platform

EXPLAINS WHY BOERs LOST.
DIR. {. s.. Osborn Says Britain Has
Removed Cause for Unrest.

The rebellion in South Africa was
f0rodOomed to failure because Great
Britains administration there has re-
moved every cause for unrest, creating,
rather. an almost independent nation,
whose affairs the conquered Beers now
practically direct. said DIR. Charles S.
Osborne. just returned from a $4,000
mile journey in South Africa. in his
lecture before members of the National
Geographic Society at New Masonic
Temple last night.
DR.. Osborne spoke upon the Con
federation of South Africa" which he
described as the youngest among the
family of nations. Beers and English
are working in hearty cooperation, he
said. to develop a mighty African coun-
try. and they have sunk all feelings of
animosity in their work.
The great problem upon the South
African horizon. he added, is how best
to deal with the enormous black popu-
lation. There are only 1880 900 whites
in South Africa, DR.. Osborn pointed out.
whereas there are more than 5000, 900
natives. These natives, he said, are
bright. adaptable. have a capacity for
culture. and are developing a strong
Ethiopian movement.

yesterday before the opening OF court,
The statements were published in the
