The reforms for which British SOC
 ialists have been struggling for 50 years have been obtained over night.
 X revolution that could not have been
 effected in a century of peace has iRen
 forced in three years of war. The conditions which forwarded that revo-
 lution are the conditions that are so
 rapidly advancing q similar revolution
 here. Our socialists, who cry "Thls is a rich mans war; let the working
 man oppose it." are as blind as those
 socialists in Great Britian who orig
 finally raised the same cry and sinh
 larly opposed their own advantage.
 We have already obtained, in this
 country, measues of state socialism
 that looked as far away as the millen- ium to our socialists three years ago. We shall have to carry the still more incredible reforms that have carried
 in England if We are to defend our selves as we'll as the English are de- | lending themselves. We, too, shall | have to "democrati2c industy." as the 1 phrase is. if we expect our working man to reinforce our battle line as l the British workingman has rem l forced the British front. And not only that. After the war is over, our in . I dustry and our commerce will not he | ish industry and commerce-to say
 nothing of the French and German
 satisfied and happy and efficient as l theirs. Our revolution will have to ] continue. because the life of the Ma
 tion in peace, as in war, will depend
 upon continuing 1t.
 A rich mans war, A war that has
 exterminated half the evils of oppres- | sion of which the predatory rich have been accused A war that has re- l duced their power curtailed their priv | ileges, confiscated their profits. A war | that has made England in three years.
 a radical democracy not only politi-
 cally. but lndustrially, If any so- cialist thinks that such war is a | rich mans war, he thinks so because 1 his mind has ceased to function | because he has reduced thought to a 1 dogma and bleats a mechanical utter
 ance like toy lamb-because he has taken his stand on the economic for
 mula, like the lamb on its bellows un-

"A RICH MANS WAR"

Among all he many and varied ex- pressions of opiHion hoGrd relative 10 the war. the one that appears to be deepest seated in the mind of a large portion of the people is that war is something that is a terrible detriment to the masses and q source of immense advantage and profit to the wealthy classes. One continually hears the ex- precision voiced, especially by the more radical minded element, that the pres ent great struggle is a rich mans war" In other words, that it is a war in which the poor people have no share or part in whatever gains may accrue: their sole prerogative being to fight the battles. suffer, bleed or lie and pay the bills when 1t is all over. II is true that in the wars of the past the rank and file of the people have had 10 bear practically all of the bur- dens. suffer all Of the wounds. and pay practically all of the bills when the struggle was over and peace was restored No matter how glorious q victory won. no matter how rich the material rewards achieved-no matter how the struggle went. it was not theirs to gain one single iota Of any thing which greatly improved their condition. Whatever gains were made. whtever profits resulted. were to the advantage of the rich-those who gave but little of their wealth and less of their blood to assist the nation in the hour of struggle. yet derived the larg- est share of the gains as result of the strife
 But, times have changed. This war is unlike any other that has ever been fought by the sons of men. It IS still true that the rich profit, but that is not a war in which the rich alone profit, that 1t is not in the actual sense a rich mans war" is succiently set forth in the following article by Harvey O'Higgins in winch the noted writer refutes beyond all logical dis pute the oft reiterated assertion of the stacker and the malcontent that no one is proflting from the struggle save the rich.

Michael to Rule.

London, March 17.-Grand Duke
Michael has accepted the throne of
Russia, conditioned on the consent
Of the Russian people, according to
a statement here today from the
semi-official Russian news agency.
The statement follows:
Grand Duke Michael Alexandra
witch, accepting the throne from his

pie, who should by plebiscite estab-
lish a new form Of government and
new fundamental laws"
The declaration made by the grand

reads as follows:
This heavy responsibility has
come to me at the voluntary request
OF my brother, who has transferred
the imperial throne to NE during a
period of warfare which is accom-
panied with unprecedented popular
disturbances.
Moved by the thought which is
in the minds of the entire people,
that the good OF the country is para
mount, | have adopted the firm reso-
luton to accept the supreme power
only if this be the will OF our great
people. who by plebiscite organized
by their representatives in a consti-
tuent assembly, shall establish form
of government and new fundamental
laws for the Russian State.
consequently invoking the bene-
diction of our Lord, l urge all clti-
zens OF Russia to submit to the pro-
yisional government established upon
the initiative of the duma and in
vested with full plenary powers, until
such time which will follow with as
little delay as possible, as the con-
stituent assembly on a basis of uni
versal, direct, equal and secret SUI
frage shall by its decision as to the
new form of government express the
will of the people"

WAS on FIRST SUBMARINE.
W. G. Reid, of Greenville, Il Member
OF Hundley'S Crew.

Greenville. March l6.--That other
person has been found who went on
the worlds first submarine, the
Hundley. and that is W. J. Reid, of
Monaghan Mill, near Greenville In
a story from Columbia several days
ago Col. D. W. McLaurin. State land
agent, was quoted as saying that he
was perhaps the only person now liv-
ing who was on the submarine.
Mr.. Reid is of the opinion that
Col. McLaurin has the facts confused
in regard to the ill-fated submarine.
In the Columbia story it is stated
that the submarine was not raised
until after the war, many years after
it sank. However, Mr.. Reid says the
vessel was raised only fifteen days af-
ter being sunk and that he was one
of those who went on the submarine
and viewed dead bodies of the crew.
The crew consisted of eight men, ac-
cording to both authorities and both
are agreed on the general construc-
tion of the vessel. Mr.. Reid said the
submarine was propelled by hand,
cranks being used and these were
fashioned much on the order of brace
and bit.
Mr.. Reid was a member Of the
naval reserves at the time, having en-
listed from Anderson. He remained
in Charleston until the summer of
1864 when he returned to Anderson
and enlisted in the First regiment of
engineers. He was at the surrender
of Lee at Appomattox, finally return
ing to South Carolina on May 20, at
the age of seventeen years.
