Updike ten days ago, disappeader.
Before going she admitted she was
the wife of another man and her dis

The Herald and News for this issue
is not printed until Tuesday noon in
order that We might give to our read
ers the full text Of Governor Man
ning's annual message to the legisla-
ture, which assemblies today at noon.
We felt that our readers should have
the benefit of the full text of the mes
sage and that it was worth while to
delay the publication in order to give
it to them While it was still fresh, and
at the same time that it would be pub
lished by the daily papers. In fact, We
give it to the readers in Newberry
while it is being read to the members
OF the legislature. The Herald and
News will carry a letter each issue
from our Columbia representative
while the legislature is in session. If

The photo-play Salvation Nell" is

drama of the came name and clearly
traces its source Of inspiration to Cali
Sorts and Conditions Of Men," written
by the late Walter Besant on the topic
of early days of the Salvation Army
in London, where is founded I'M the
SOS by the late General" Booth.
Booth set out 10 rescue the sub
merged tenth in London's vast cas-.
end-cesspool OF crime, poverty, dis
east; all mostly caused by drink. "Sal-'
vation Nell" the modern play, illus
trates conditions in New York which
Booth saw and started to grapple with
in the old world, long before Mr.. Snel-
don produced his play. Still every
credit is due Mr.. Shelton. For long
Salvationism was jeered at. It's pro-
fessors were cuffed and stoned. The
older religionaries hated it. That's
what they do when anything new and
progressive comes along. Don't blame
them; it's human nature
Beatriz Michelena has the part of
her life in that of the adventurous
Nell, who after all her vicious troubles
and lurid Ticissitudes is redeemed by
the Army. The photo play makes wide
appeal and is very well and carefully

And then the Greenwood Journal
wants the state to build another girls
college, provided we build it at Green
wood. That won't cost very much.
Only a paltry few hundred thousand,
and then we should furnish scholar
ships to all the denominational col
leges, and that will take only small
sum, and we can arrange it all with
out increasing the tax, provided We
can double the tax values, and the
commission starts with the banks, and
now the banks want to abolish the tax
commission. This is'truly very sell
fish and ungrateful world.
The ting to solve the whole prob
lem is to put license tax Oh the fell

The Augusta Chronicle addresses

The Augusta Chronicle addresses an
omen editorial letter to President WILL
son suggesting and recommending the
anpointment of ex-President TAFT as
the successar of Justice Lamar to the
supreme bench of the United States
The suggestion is a good one and we
would like to see President Wilson
make the appointment. Mr.. TAFT is
an able man and man OF broaoa
vision. He frequently rose above party
lines and showed that he was no par
tisan. but rather a statesman, and ms
appointment would be fitting recog-
nition of him, and We believe would
give general satisfaction. Mr.. TAFT ap-
pointed Justice Lamar, who was d
Democrat, and it would be fitting
tribute to Mr.. Taft to have Demo
cratic president offer him the appoint
ment.

Greenwood has no license tax. Com
menting on this the Rock Hill RECORD
saws: Greenwood is a no license city,
hut +he license referred to has nothing
to do with the liquor business, as 1t
relates only to business of all otner
kinds The business men Of Greenwood
are not compelled to pay license or
privilege tax before they can do busi-
ness in that city. 1t is pity that the
example Of Greenwood is not followed
in all the cities and towns in the state.
"a license tax in an iniQuity. NO
license tax schedule that was ever
framed was fair. 1t is impossible to
impose a license tax On several hun
dred citizens in a way to do justice
to ALL"
And the Record mas a SOod oeoI
more to say along the same line. 1t
is a fact that Greenwood is one OF
the most progressive Of the towns OF
the state and is moving forward as
rapidly as any, and the public spirit
is fine and the business in all lines
good.

THE GOVERNORS MESSAGE.

We print today the full text of the
governors message to the general as
smbly. 1t is plain and simple state
ment of his position with no attempt
at fine writing or fireworks, but in
most of the important subjects ne
says he Will later send special mes
sage, so the public may expect quite
number of messages.
As to law enforcement he says that
he believes in the principle of local
self-government, and in the same para
graph asks for a provision for spe-
cial deputies so that he may enforce
the law in the counties, anticipating
failure to dc so on the part of sheriffs
and magistrates and the local authori-
ties, and We suppose in many cases he
is right.
On education he says we must keep
up the work as it is important, does
not favor state wide compulsory at
tendance, commeends the establish
ment of mill school supervisor and
wants the work continued, recommends
that agriculture be taught in the COM
mon schools, wants one year training
for teachers in the high schols, says
nothing about the colleges except that
they are doing a good work and the
attendance is increasing.
He says we need good roads and the
time has come not to deal in general
tiles, but to act, but so far as we see
he makes no suggestion for line Of
action.
He recommends a board of concilia-
ton of three members to settle strikes
and so on.
He says he will send another mes
sage to the legislature on the national
guard, but does not intimate whether
he will approve the big appropriation
asked.
He urges that the board of charities
be continued and that they be given
a continued appropriation for their
work. They ask about double of the
last appropriation.
The governor opposes lobbying and
warns the members against the lob
byist.
He says he did not use any of the
special appropriation for legal advice,
and that the appropriation was with
out his request. Certainly it was with
his knownedge and consent or ne could
rery easily have prevented it or We
toed it when the bill was presented.
We were present in the house during
the debate and, our understanding was
that Mr.. Dick and Mr.. Lilies both made
the statement that the appropriation
was desired by the governor.
The message concludes with plea
for economy, but carries the idea that
it will be all right to make appropri-
ations so long as it is possible that
the "tax levy be held down to mini
mum" The same old statement OF
not increasing taxes, because you have
not increased the levy.
Read the message for yourself. It
is printed in full today.

Seriously, though, this thing of in

it does not pay any one to own prop

WHAT Is THE NATTER?


What is the matter with the taxes
in Abbeyille county? We should say
state and county. We hear the great
est complaint ever of excessive taxes.
The tendency is upward, upward! The
politicians are likely to have several
questions to face in. the coming cam
paign this summer."-A. R. Presbyte-
rian.
Yes, what is the matter? This is
just what we all want to know. We
do not think that it would take Sol
omon to point out the trouble 1t is
the undemocratic methods that We
have adopted of putting the tax busi-
ness into the hands of two or. three
men who feel that their mission is to
get all the money they can out of the
taxpayers. We have gone on creating
Offices, and increasing expenses until
it takes mints of money to keep going.
Look out and see if We do not have
next session of the legislature to be
filled with high salaried officials who
will sit up in Columbia skyscrapers
and pull in the money for the people
who sweat to make it.-Greenwood
Journal.
We are just little surprised to
hear these protests from these sources,
as we thought that these two editors,
at least, were in accord with the pro-
gressive and aggressive and construct
i've program Of the present admins
tration. You know it takes money to
create and maintain the departments
of charities and corrections and the
state tax commission and to furnish
extra legal advice to the governor and
to double the pay of state officials con-
trary to law, but as We understood the
proposition all these things are in the
sature of constructive legislation, AM
evidences of the highest order of pat
riotism and of progress.
And then it seems that it takes lit
tie coin to enforce the law and to
promote law and order and even with
the expenditure there is still pretty
good modicum of crime rampant in
the land, but according to some au
thorities this is of course due to the
lawless regimes which have preceded ,
the present administration.
Now, dont you fool yourself, these
constructive measures are taking |
money, and you will find if you look !
at the budget that they are asking a
great deal more this year, and you
will also find that they will continue
to increase their demands from year
to year.
About the only way to keep from in
creasing CO. taxes is for the tax com
mission to doube the taxable values, !
and then the legislature may be able
to get along without increasing the
levy, and you know the average legis-
lator is willing tc make any appropri-
alton almost if he can do so without |!
increasing the levy for fnen he can go
back and tell the dear people that he
has NIT increased their taxes-the levy !
is the same as it was. See? 1t is !
simple enough, and don't worry about
it. There is nothing the matter. Con-
structive legislation, more departments
of government with good jobs for "our !
folk" and increased salaries and law
and order, all these things take money,
but We will increase the taxable values !
and then we won't have to raise the
taxes. It's all very simple, surprised
you can't see it.
And then the Greenwood Journal !
wants the state to build another girls
