THE DARLING SOUTH

The rise in cotton has created I'M
easiness in the most unexpected
place-that is, in the mind of the
Manufacturers Record, whose darling
South for once may receive more
prosperity than is good for it, The
great danger to the South in this sit
uation, says this economic oracle,
will be that its farmers may be
tempted to abandon diversified farm
ing and concentrate all their inter
ests on cotton growing. Another dan
ger is that this money may beget
wild extravaganza and speculation. 1t
should be used to wipe out the indebt-
edness of Southern planters to their
merchants, and of Southern merchants
TO their bankers, in order that this
section may be on a sound financial
basis, able TO meet any storm that
may come in the future New York
Tribune.
The Tribune, usually correct, is
just little mistaken in imagining
that we are afraid that the darling
South" may receive more prosperity
than is good for IT, On the contrary.
the Manufacturer Record would like
70 see many times ss much prosper
lily come to the South as It has yet
received, but we were merely issu-
ing word Of warning that this pros.
perity might be wisely used and not
turned to extravaganza and specuia-
ton. and that it might not tempt
farmers to abandon diversified agri-
culture in order to concentrate all of
their attention upon raising cotton.
We believe that the Tribune will adj
init that this is sound doctrine. and
that every business man in the
South ought TO do all in his power

A FAIR ELECTION.

Those who clsmored for a fair cleo
ton certainly had their wish graf
lied on Tuesday. While both sides
rlade aggressive campaigns and did
not relinquish their efforts until the
last vote had been cast, the Demo
Gratis were returned victorious, after
making most honorable fight for
supremacy We trust that the re-
turns are of sufficient proof to show
what an honest election means in
berkeley county. and they also prove
beyond doubt what results will be
when the elections are honorable.
Let us have honorable elections all
the time, and then there will be no
Iced to cry about conditions. 1t is
to be hoped that Tuesdays result sat
isfed those who howled so much
about fair elections.

WEATHER FACTOR IN ELEC-
TiONS.

Every factor going to make up the
size and complexion of the election
vote viii be considered by the ex-
perts when they get fairly down to
the business of explaining. That
they will explain should go without
saying. And if all other signs fail
they can always lay the result on
the weather.
Fine election weather practically
everywhere was announced in ad-
vance by the weather bureau. Doubt
less this has been verified. Yester-
day morning opened with clear skies
prevailing over the greater portion
of the country. Light rains were
falling in the upper valleys and snow
in the central Rocky Mountain region,
but those were the only sections with
meteorological drawbacks. To Offset
this, abnormally warm weather for
the season prevailed throughout the
interior regions from the gulf to the
lakes.
In all probability the weather plays
small part in determining results
in this day of good roads and swift
transportation. Wherever the coun-
try is at all thickly settled every
farmer has virtually become SUI
burbanite. His trip to the nearest
town or village has become an I'M
recorded incident instead of a high
adventure. the latter often involving
real peril in earlier days.
While they are explaining it might
be we'll to consider the possible ef-
fects of the weather in determining
campaign methods in advance of the
elections as marked the older day.
Then. perhaps the little local bands
of patriotic citizens. with their uni
forms and torchlight professions, were
necessary TO the preservation of the
true party spirit in the face of dis
couraging weather elements. Such

to encourage the continuation Of the
steady growth of diversified farming.
Instead OF being afraid OF the
South's having too much prosperity,
the. Manufacturers Record has been
working for more than a third OF "a
comury TO- trs to bring abont a pros
perity commandments with the soutiss
advantages. We have not yet seen
more than the early dawn which
presages the rising of the sun of
prosperity. We are just beginning to
grope, as the darkness of night dis.
appears, into the rising light, and
from now on the sun of prosperity
will food the land with a wealth OF
light and an activity to which this
section has not heretofore been ac.
customed We are now to see some
thing of that great prosperity which,
stimulated by the war, has swept oy.
err the iron and steel centers of the
North and the West, and which
through the tremendous demand from
Europe for foodstuffs, has brought
about the Astounding wealth of the
Western farmers. This section, which
the Tribune calls the darling South
of the Manufacturers Record, is at
last coming into its own, and we
trust that this new wealth will be
wisely used to the good of the people
of the South.
Who ever had a better darling"
than the South and one more richly
lowered by nature with resources
that can be developed into measure
less wealth ?-Manufacturers Record.

DIVINE RIGHT OF KINGS.
Some of the rulers in Europe still
aGhere TO the now exploded theory
that kings govern by divine right. AT
the bottom of all the political and
military tempest in Greece lies this
important question. Greece has not
yet actually entered the war ON the
side of the allies largely because this
question of the divine right of kings
remains unsettled, and for the first
time in many years it promises to
become direct political issue in q
European kingdom.
With former Premier Venizelos es.
tablish ng a provisional government
at Saloniki and organizing a general
mobilization of the whole country, 1t
does not seem likely that Greece can
remain much longer out of the war.
To all intents and purposes she is in
1t right now. And the very keynote
of the educational campaign which
Venizelos is waging is that kings
have no divine rights, but are merely
human beings, who by chance happen
to be at the head of the government.
More than "a year ago, venizelos re-
calls, King Constantine in one of bis
speeches expressed his willingness to
leave the internal affairs of Greece
to the ministry. but asserted that Gin
international relations consider my
self alone responsible before God for
their direction This, insists Vent.
zeIos, Is the doctrine of the divine
right of kings, with which" he adds.
we have nothing to do in Greece"
Apparently the campaign of Veni-
zclos is not designed for the deposit
ton of King Constantine. but merely
to keep the king within the limits
Oh the Greek constitution. Venizelos
has said that what lies at the root
of the kings attitude is that he re-
CARDS the kingdom of Greece as his
own personal property and that the
people of Greece will not recognize
or support this theory
What is happening in Greece may
happen elsewhere in Europe during
the war or at its close.
II is not merely a national, but an
