THE DEFEAT OF BLEASE.

1t appears that Cole Blease has beer
defeated in South Carolina. We con
graduate her, but without surprise. L
seemed to us that a Blease man was {
Blease man from the beginning, anc
+; since the candidate of that element
was not elected in the first primary
we had small fear that anybody else
was going over to him.
But although South Carolina is de-
,1ivered from this particular repreacn
she is not out of the woods yet. The
condition that produced B1ease in the
first place is still in existence; and
until it is corrected the menace is liza
BILE to crop up again at any moment.
The whole theory Of government in
South Carolina is founded upon a false
; assumption. Blease was a symptom,
not a disease. He was the logical out
come Of a system based upon the I'M
tenable premise.
South Carolina proceeds upon the
assumption that any man is fit to eX-
ercise the right of suffrage, in the
Nv C11IICI1 SC4AIu4S IL Ills ohI hdPpChS
to be white. That simply is not So.
In this day of enlightenment. illiteraCy
among the younger is not due solely
to misfortune once in q million times.
In the overwhelming majority of cases
it is indicative of a slOth and indiffer-
ence so great as 10 amount to mortal
turpitude; and that should debar a
mar from the exercise of the suffrage.
The dominance of the white race in
the affairs of the world is not the gift
of nature. 1t is a position won by dint
OF thousands of years of ~incessant
struggle. and to be maintained only
by incessant vigilance. A white man,
particularly an American white man
with the multitudinous advantages of
fered an American white man, who al
lows himself to slip down into british
ignorance, has betrayed his race. and
ought thencefOrth to be denied the
privileges of the, ruling class. South
Carolina refuses to recognize that
fact. In the primaries there anything
that has a white skin can vote, and the
primaries constitute the election. The
wonder is not that she was afflicted
with Blease, but that she got off so
light.
Not every man who voted for Blease
is grossly ignorant. In every state
with a couple of million people there
are bound to be thousands with a men
tai slant totally incomprehensible to
the thinking element. But among the
these do not amount to a
number sufficient to hold the balance
of power. The stronghold of Blease-
ism is among men who, under the
written laws of South Carolina itself.
have no right to vote at all.
Ascendency is a guerdon, not a
gift; and you can't get away from it.

Mr and Mrs. R. R. Stotlan entertained their home in honor of Miss Katherine Monk of Mobile.

Submits Draft of Rules to
BeIligerentS.
JUST AND FAIR FORMULA
Safety Of Noneombatants and Crew
Of Merchant Ships soueht-May
Intern Armed Liners-cIinch
American Principles.
JUST AND FAIR FORMULA

Washington.-A suggestion that all
belligerent countries subscribe to a
declaration of principles governing
attacks on merchant vessels and for
bidding the arming Of such vessels has
been made by the United States in an
effort to establish in international law
a general policy disposing Of many of
the vexatious problems arising from
the development of submarine war
fare.
Identical notes have gone forward
asking the various countries at war to
say specifically whether they are will
ing to join in such an agreement. The
declaration of principles would pro-
vide:
THAT noncombatants may expect
protection under the rules of interna-
tional law and the principles Of hu-
manity when travelling on merchant
ships; that warning must be given be-
fore a merchantmen is attacked; that
belligerent-owned merchant ships must
obey warnings to stop; that merchant
men shall not be fired on except in
case of resistance or fight; that no
merchantmen shall be sunk except
where it is impossible to supply prize
crew or until passengers and crew are
placed in safety; that merchantmen
shall not be permitted to mount arms"
Favorable responses from the bel
ligerents would be looked on as clinch-
ing the principles of submarine war
fare for which the United States has
contended through its extended nego-
tiations with Germany and Austria and
at the same time dIsposing of trou
blesome question recently accentuated
by the arrival at New York Of three
armed Italian merchant vessels. Ger
many and Austria already have agreed
in effect to the proposals regarding at
tacks on commercial ships. and Great
Britain and her allies always have
been understood to be in accord with
the American viewpoint on that sub
ject.
In it's note the United States calls
attention to the fact that it has
changed its policy toward mounting
guns on merchantmen since sub
marines began to play such large
part in naval warfare. Officials made
it clear that this change had not re-
suited from suggestions from any
foreign government, but solely from
the changed conditions.

Paris.-A Zeppelin dirigible passed
swiftly over a section of Paris Satur-
day night, dropping a dozen great
bombs whose weight aggregated about
three and a half tons, which killed "a
persons and injured 27.
The raid lasted about one minute
and half, while in the first visit Of
Zeppelins to Paris, on March 21, 1915,
four Of these aircraft were over or in
the neighborhood of the capital for
nearly two hours. They came at that
time under entirely different atmo-
spheric conditions, being plainly
visible in clear sky. Saturday night
the fog seriously interfered with the
work of the Paris aerial guard.
The fact that only one German ma
chine appeared leads to the belief that
the Zeppelin was making a reconnoi-
tering trip, and the supposition is that
the Germans have in view a similar
operation on a larger scale.
Warnings of the presence of Yep
pelin were hurriedly given and the
lights of Paris were dimmed At the
hour of the raid the theatres and cafes
were open and householders had hard
ly yet retired. Almost Immediately all
the aeroplanes guarding Paris were
made ready, and about 80 of them took
the air. One of these machines fred
rs shots from a quick firer at the in
vading craft, which, pursued by sew
eral of the little machines, sped at top
speed westward. Apparently the
bombs carried by the Zeppelin were
let loose Unfortunately and without
thought of where they should strike.
One of the pursuing aviators said
that the searchlights were useless in
the fog, he himself being hardly able
to see more than "a feet above with the
aid of his light.
The Paris newspapers demand that
measures of retaliation be taken i'm
mediately.

Lime Bill In the House.

Delegate Blandford, of Prince
Georges, the father of the Lime bill
IN the Legislature OF two years ago,
again introduced the bill in the House.
Senator Holmead had intended father
ing the bill in the Senate, but Senator
Mudd, of Charles, was just ahead OF
him.
Both houses passed the bill in 1914,
but as there were several amendments
madel in the Senate the House failed
in the rush of the closing sessions to
make these amendments, and the bill
failed for that reason.
The proposal in the bill is for the
State to appropriate $4,000 to estab
lish two plants for the grinding OF
oyster shells into lime to be used as
fertilizer-one plant to be in Southern
Maryland and the other on the East
ern Shore. The lime produced will be
sold to farmers at price that would
pay expenses and provide a sinking
fund to reimburse the State.
