Entered at the Postcffce at York.. as
Mail Matter Of the Second Class.
TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 5, 1922.

The vote in last Tuesdays primary
was approximately $4,000 short OF the
enrolment, and although the papers
have expressed much surprise at thls'
they do not seem to comprehend the
reason. Some of the shortage is TO DC
accounted for by failure of the enroll
cd Democrats to so to the polls; but
that is by no means all. 1t is fair 10
estimate that no less than 800 ballots
were thrown out uncounted in York
county by reason Of their being in the
wrong boxes, the voters having depos-
tied their county ballot in the state
boxes and their state ballots in the
cornty boxes. These figures are only
estimated; but the estimate is proba-
bly, under rather than over. Taking
York county rs an average and assum-
ing that the same thing occurred in the
other counties, the probability is that
as many as fifteen thousand votes
were thrown out uncounted.

GAIL Good Men,"

About the commonest propaganda Of
the machine newspapers throughout
the state is the stuff about the good"
men and women being against Blease,
and the non-descripts being on the
other side.
In the first place this goody-good
business makes us tired, and we are
sure that for any sensible man or wo-
man to think about it is to laugh.
Who's good, anyway? Do you,
reader, think you are good in the sense
that you are so much better than other
people? Surely you do not think that
those people who are always harping
on their goodness, are so very superior
TO you.
In the election of last Tuesday more
than $4,000 men and women of South
Carolina voted for Cole L. Blease, a
man who has been held up by the ma
chine newspapers as the antithesis of
all that is good, and they did it delib-
erately in full knowledge of what they
were doing. Has not Cole L. Bleasc
been prominently in public. life for
more than twenty-five years, and has
he not been charged with every sin in
the decaloguc? Has he not served
two terms as governor of the state,
and as a matter of fact is he not the
best known man in the state barring
nonc-the best loved and the most
hated? Yet $4,000 people were willing
to give him their proxies above all who
had offered.
SO far as the general understanding
OF good is concerned it is admitted of
al men that the people of York coun-
ty are as good as any in the state.
Note our churches, our schools, our
charitable institutions, our industries,
OF these York county people 2,671
voted for Blease and LISP voted for
Mcleod. Those who voted for Rlease
knew what they were doing as well as
did the others. Who in York county
is going TO say that the 2,671 are not
as good as the 1852?
Some of the machine newspaners oC
the state make insinuations along this
line; but really are not those insnua
tons quite absurd?
After all are we to believe What de-
signing propagandists tell us, or are
we TO believe the actual facts rs we

through, s.all causes 1921
was a record year. The estimated po-
tential production aggregates 1866
600 bales, prevented production being
1O,712,O0O bales, for which the boil
weevil was responsible for 6,277,0OO
bales. The actual production was u
954, 900 bales. Prevented production
therefore far exceeded the acual crop
and the weevil caused a reduction equal
to 70 per cent of the acutal crop. HAD
it not been for the weevil last years
crop could have been obtained from 6O
per cent. of the acreage cultivated. The
weevil was more destructive than all
other causes of damage combined, be-
ing credited with SO per cent. OF the
total damage.

An embarrassing incident on the
crowded ball room floor of the Casino
at DCauvllle, France, q month ago in
which the King Of Spain was left
standing by his dancing partner, Miss
Katherine Dckcy, Of Atlanta, while
she hurried to greet her father, james
DIckcy, Il director of the Atlanta Ma
tlondl Bank, was explained by the
young woman Saturday in New York
on her arrival OH the MaurCtania. The
royal CONSERVATION at being told to
wait minute" in the middle of
dance and suddenly deserted was
assua%cd, however, when Miss Dickcy
sought out Prince Nicholas, second son
Of the King of ROumana, and induced
him To convey her sincere regrets. The
king accepted the situation good
naturcdly and remarked To Prince
Nicholas on the democratic ideas of
American girls. The story goes that
King Alfonso sought Miss Dickcy as
dancing partner and dispatched his
secretary To arrange the formal intro
ductions. At the height of tho gayety
Miss Dtckcy caught sight of her father
and wishing to tell him something Of
great Importance" stopped in her
tracks ana softly told the king to wait

- Chicago, September /: Enforce
ment of the injunction obtained by
Attorney General Harry NJ. DauGhcrty
against lawlcssness and violence in
connection with the shop crafts strike
will be aided by every power of the
shop crafts organization, q statement
issued by the executive committee OF
the railway employees department of the
American Federation of Labor said to-
night. THE officials of these organi-
cations have done everything possible
since the beginning of the strike TO
maintain Il peaceful suspension of
work." the statement said. "Consid-
elfng the difficulties or preserving per-
feet order in any group of 1000 men
engaged in Il struggle for Il decent
livelihood, it mus be admitted that the
strike has been IL remarkable demon
stration of the law-abding character
of the workers involved. 1t is unfor-
tunate that in s5nit for the announc-
ed purpose of preventing laWleSSneSS
the attorney generals office has pre-
pared, and q court, on haSty consider
alton, has entered an order which, un-
less carefully interpreted might be
rated as a fragrant violation of ConSti-
tutiOnal rights of American citizens as
repeatedly affirmed by the supreme
court of the United States. Apparent
ly either hate or failure to use the
English language with precision has
led To the drafting of an order which.
read too literally, would end the right
OF free speech, or communication of
any sort, or just payment OF debts, or
mutual aid in lawful association TO
men engaged in the peaceful, legal
conduct OF their business"

The present task of the South Caro-
lima papers in general is in analyZing
returns and figuring out how Blease is
going to be left in the second primary.
The Charleston News and Courier, FOR
instance, has not been able to discover
"a single new center of Blease strength
in the state" On the contrary, The
News and Courier says it is clear that
Bleases following has perceptlbly
weakened in some of the counties
where he was strongest, as for example
in Anderson. There, in 1916, Blease re-
ccivCd a vote of 1913 to 2,977 for
Manning in the second primary. This
year Mcleod in the first primary Sc
cured 1872 votes to Blease's 4,12O.
The News and Courier is sure that
Anderson county, when the Laney-
Coleman, ,Cantey vote is counted in, is
well over in the anti-Blease column
Charlotte Observer.
But let's see a little. Was it not a
little before that that Manning and his
crowd bought out the Anderson lntelli-
gencer and did they not own the paper
at that time? That is our recollection.
The Intelligencer had previously been
the anti-machine exponent of Anderson
county, and Manning and his crowd
put it to grinding out accomplishments
to the discordant music of the Colum-
bia State. The machine spents lots OF
money in Anderson county in 1916 and
much of it on the Anderson Intelli-
gencer. Because of the heavy expense
of maintaining the Intelligencer how
ever that paper died. The Daily Mail
and the Tribune this year have both
been neutral and fair.

ALONG THE Way

Monday, salesday for September
brought quite number of horsctraders
to town carrying with them a large
number of horses and mules, ranging
from plugs" to good uns." Most Of
the traders were looking for boot in
connection with trades and since the
boot" was rather scarce, there was
not great deal Of trading in horse
flesh. An amusing incident occurred
in one of the back lots when two
hOrscmcn seeing that they were going
to be unable to come to an agreement
on their respective mounts began dick

failed to trade his concluding argu-

clivity in pursuit of the mark, the

The general propositions which
ought to be included in u new repara-
tiCns settlement were outlined by the
senator as:
Priority of payments for the recon-
struction of the ruins of northern
France.
Extension of a moratorium to Ger
many for several years, conditional
upon an adequately secured bankers
loan to stabilize the mark, to balance
the current German budget and to
contribute to French reconstruction
this year.
Prompt withdrawal of ''barbarous
or semi-barbarous Mohammedan
troops" from the Rhine; and progress

terms of the mora toriuE and repara-
tions agreement are fulfilled by Ger
many.

LOST MOUNTAIN

Our community was shocked at the
sad accident causing the death of
little Samuel Dobbins, last Wednes-
day, the account of which has al
ready been published in the Journal.
Every heart in the community is
touched and feel with profound SYM
pathy for the family.
We regret to learn of the death of
our good friend, Lawson Fields, and
feel in sympathy for the family.
None of the correspondents or the
school children gave an answer to
our query, IF negro was sentenced
s18 months for stealing $1,000, how
long would Mr.. Berrion have to serve
at the same rate, who stole $4,000
of the State school funds?" If we
make no mistake, he would have to
serve 5000 years.
Midway Sunday School has bought
three dozen of Vaughan's new song
books.
The relatives attending the funeral
of Samuel Dobbins were Mrs. j. c..
DuBose and daughter, of College
Park, and Charlie Mayes, of Carriers
vile.
