The public needs both steam power
and water power. 1t is to the interest
Of the whole country that our water
power should be developed as rapidly
and as efficiently as possible. This de-
velopment can be carried on only in
one of two ways-either by govern
ment ownership and operation or by
the employment Of capital worked un-
der the incentive Of private property.
Nobody but visionary proposes today
that the government should build and
operate water power plants. Some sys-
tenn must, therefore be devised for
the development of water powers as
natural resource by private genius
and private capital.-Outlook.

AN ENDORSEMENT.

The reelection Of Mayor Gambrell
by the democratic voters of the city,
for that is what his nomination
means, may well be taken as an en-
dorsement Of his administration as
the chief executive officer of the city.
No one had anything against his
two young opponents. Both of them
were born and reared in this city,
and the people of the city, we feel
sure, would have been glad to help
them in their aspirations to serve the
city, but for the fact that they felt
called on to approve the administra-
ton of the present mayor.
During his two terms in this office
many improvements have been made,
especially in the electric light and
water plants. We hope that the
council will continue to make the
necessary improvements so as to
make our plants the best and most
modern of their kind. Especially do
we favor the extension of the present
White Way Lights until the whole
town is lighted in this way. 1t will
be an economy in the long run, and
the streets will be all the better
lighted.
We hope too that these two plants
will become in the next two years a
source from which the city will re-
ceive some revenue. The city is
getting sadly behind other cities in
the matter of improved streets and
sidewalks, and we should be looking
after these. But we must cut ex-
penses, and increase revenue in order
to build streets. The city council
woll do well to look to this end.

As intimated in The Journal few
days ago, Robert A. Cooper, of Lau-
rens, will be in the race for governor
this summer. Following conference
of his friends last night in Green
WOOD formal announcement of his
candidacy was made. He declares
that he has been urged, besought and
even pleaded with by men in all sec.
tions of the state for the past six
months to offer as a candidate and
that he has finally decided to yield
to their entreaties.
The entrance of Mr.. Cooper may
or may not be followed by other en-
tries. There had been a rumor in
circulation that DR.. John G. Clink-
scales of Spartanburg, might enter
the lists but Prof. Clinkscales has
denied this, saying that he expected
to support Governor Manning for re-
election.
Unless there is a decided change in
sentiment and additional entries in
the race the fight for the Office will
probably be between Manning and
Cooper. Both are. strong over the
state and are good campaigners. 1t
will be a clean fight, however, for
neither is a mudslinger. 1t is to be
hoped that there will be no bitter
ness engendered in this campaign
such as has been engendered in for
mer campaigns.-Spartanburg Jour-
nal.

Cooper's Candidacy.

No one questions the high charac'
ter and correct purpose of Solicitor
R. A. Cooper, who announced last
week that he will be candidate for
governor; but there are many that
would vote for Mr.. Cooper under or
dinary conditions who sincerely de-
plorc his entrance into the race. MI
Cooper represents practically the
same things that Governor Manning
does, and if elected will give the
state much the same kind of admins.
tration that Mr.. Manning has done.
If the Laurens man had been COVER.
nor the past two years his course in
every matter that has come up would
probably have been identically the
same as Mr.. Manning's. There are
some of Mr.. Manning's faction who
are displeased with his administra-
ton and want change; but the ma:
jority of those who have solicited
Mr.. Cooper to make the race are not
in our opinion real bona fide friends
and hackers of the faction to which
Messrs. Manning and Cooper belong,
but men who hope by precipitating
a bitter fight between Manning and
Cooper to see the other faction walk
off with the prize. All of which
renders it very advisable that the
friends of Messrs. Manning and
Cooper not become highly excited,
conduct a friendly and harmonious

BRANDEIS AS JUDGE.

The American lawyer is nothing il
not conservative. He may be ultra
conservative. He will find fault
with his brother at times, but when
it comes to public criticism of an
other lawyer he is "slow to anger
and plenteous in mercy" The mem.
bers of the bar in different communi.
ties are long suffering-too long suf.
fering in many cases.
And when a respectable number
of the members of the bar where a
man lives, and where he has prac-
ticed his profession, are willing to
say that he is not to be trusted, ii
will be found that they speak the
truth. They may be prejudiced;
they may look at things from differ
ent angles from other men, but the
American lawyer does not question
the integrity of his brother lawyer
without good grounds, certainly not
in an important matter such as his
confirmation as a member of the
court. When, therefore, certain
members of the bar of Boston went
before the Senate Committee and
said that the appointee of President
Wilson was untitled for the bench,
and that he was not to be trusted, it
may be safely assumed that they
spoke the truth.
On top of this comes seven ex-presi-
dents of the American Bar Associa-
ton, some republicans, some demo
Gratis; some northerners and some
southerners, and ask that Mr.. Bran.
deis be not confirmed, urging that
he is untitled for the duties and
high responsibilities of the bench.
Who recommended Mr.. Brandeis
anyway? Why was he appointed?
Was it to please a certain portion of
the people of the United States, the
socialists, the labor unions, or some
body else? Was the appointment
made for the purpose of securing
votes in the next presidential race?
If it was not made for this purpose,

succeeded by another Managing Edi'

Miss Wylie has made the News one

judgment. She always writes to
the point, and she has opinions OF
her own which she expresses forcibly
but courteously.

then why was it made at all?
No man has yet been named a
member of that Court we believe
when his neighbors believed he was
not to be trusted. We trust that
the time will never come when such
a man will be confirmed by the Sen
ate of the United States. The
courts are the last resort of the poor
and the rich alike in the assertion OF
Their rights and the protection OF
their liberties, and an appointee
should know only the law and the
constitution. He should not be q

Cooper For Governor.

The announcement of Hon. R. A.
Cooper that he will be a candidate
for governor in the primary this
summer was no surprise to his num-
erous friends in this section as they
were aware that he was receiving
messages from all sections of the
state urging him to enter the race.
Friends and supporters of other can
didates are trying to discredit his
candidacy, but his friends are united
in their determination to have him
win and their fight will be felt
throughout the state. 1t will be
well to keep your eye on Cooper
