VI oiiIiCdl AuVeTllSemenC)
Suppose you had very close per-
sonal friend. Suppose you had stood
by him through thick and thin, going
out of your way to do him favors.
Suppose you two were walking down
the street one day and met two big,
beefy fellows who announced their in
tention of giving you a good licking.
And suppose you turned to your
friend and said: "Old man, here is
where have need of you. You have
always claimed to be my friend. Now
is your chance to make good. Lend
me hand and we will lick these
two fellows" And suppose your
friend should reply: 81 would be glad
to help you under any other condi-
tions, but / believe l can make more
profit by staying out of this fight. If
you can't lick these two fellows by
yourself, you'll just have to take a
beating"
What would you think of that sort
of friend? Would you call it cold
feet? Or would you feel tempted to
think that he had sold out? Whatever
you might think about it, would YOU
have much use for that friend there
after? Honest, now, what do YOU
think of gutter who would turn
you down in the hope of making a
profit for himself?
Now consider the case of Sam Mich
oils, candidate for congress. He had
always been a Blease man. Accord
ing to his own testimony, his people
regretted the fact that Sam was on
that side of the fence, but his heart
was there, apparently, and Sam re-
mained loyal to Blease. Blease did
him favors, and Sam helped Blease in
his campaigns.
Then Sam ran for congress. He
managed to get into the second race,
but he had sense enough to realize
that he couldn't be nominated with.
out the support of anti-Blease men.
Then the Spartanburg papers, or at
least one Of them, came out in support
of Sam.
Charles o. Hearon, editor of the
Spartanburg Herald, is an honest
man. Whatever his sentiments may
be in regard to the congressional race,
he speaks out the truth and lets the
record stand on its own feet Here is
an extract from letter of his:
81 predicted that Blease would be
running against Gov. Manning this
summer and that we would have him
(Nicholls) supporting Blease, and the
whole old row to go over again. He
told me that he believed Blease had
been sufficiently honored by being gov
ernor for two terms, and that should
he run against Manning he would not
support him."

u. S. SENATOR:
Frederick Hale
STATE AUDITOR:
Roy L. Wardwell
Mr.. Hughes Jolts EN-.

Let's see, didn't President Wilson
4A,tell the ladies' that he could not give
expression on the suffrage question
because the Baltimore convention
:(through some unaccountable mistake,
mo doubt,) got in a single term plank
dnstead of suffrage plank? And has
he not declared since the St. Louis
Iconvention that he can go only as far
as his platform-on suffrage, NOT the
zone term?
And now, how much is the scholarly
and judicial Mr.. Hughes like Mr.. Will
Ison-because he is SO different! For
instance, Mr.. Hughes endorses the
Republican suffrage plank as good"
land agrees to live up to 1t; but he
frankly tells everybody that he favors
r'prompt" granting Of equal suffrage
and he favors an amendment to the
federal constitution providing for wo-
man suffrage.
Z OF course that is only his opinion,
Given as CltlZen OF the Onlteu oLdteS,
land is not binding on any party. but it
carries great weight and gives the
cause Of equal suffrage a splendid lift
that will not be forgotten by suffrag-
lists the world over. At last a big
man, a leader, a man of broad mind
and judicial training. has given his
frank opinion concerning the best way
to settle an old and worldwide con-
,troversy-it must come, so let us have
: 1t by the shortest cut. without further
: dodge or bubble. The states right
dodge has been worn threadbare. why
work it any more?
Mr.. Hughes is unequivocally for fed
eral amendment. 1t is a jolt in the
Jaw Of Democracy and we predict that
more are to follow. Perhaps because
mr.. Hughes "dares" is the reason why
the politicians did not want him and
the people did.

that new trade connections made by
American business concerns at THIS
time, may be continued after the war
Britain should also remember that the
boycott is just as legitimate as tns
black list, and If American concerns
combine against British trade. after
the war is over because OF grievances
against Britain during the war, then
Britain will suffer for any high
handed policies adopted against the
legal trade relations Of neutrals.
Britain cannot have her pie and eat
it too She may have matters in her
own hands now but she must pay the
fiddler after she has ordered the

a bitter trade war with all the neu-
trails, whether she wins or loses the
war. The blacklist invites defensive
