''Politics is a Profession "

The News and Courier has been doingconsiderablae talking lately over the degeneracyof Southern Statesman-ship sincethe war.

It makes use of the following expression:"We believe that the time is near at handwhen men of brains will be able at last toturn their attention to politics, not exactlyas a profession, but as an avocation of intenseInterest. When this happens, it willbe a sad day for the mountebanks and

(fakirs who have been able so long to shinein the light of publicity."There may be few men of the type of

Calhoun, McDuffle, Hayne, and Chevesfrom the South today but it can be

said, almost without exception, that themen of the South leave the service as theyenter it, with clean hands. Honesty, we

believe, is the first requisite of the faithfuli representative.

Before the war, and up to about 1840,there was not such an unequal distributionof Inhabitants between the north and thesouth, and as there was less unanimity ofsentiment in the North, the South was

really the dommant party in Congress.If the editor of the News and Courier can

devise any plan, other than a surrender torepublicanism, by which the democratsmay overcome a majority of somethinglike two to one, the minority would doubtlesswelcome the information.Some old lawyer said to a younger man

who had read law under him, that thegood speeches were the ones which won

the cases. There is little incentive'eitherfor action or discussion, in a body that isdominated absolutely by party rule. Thefaultis not in the men" of the minority'but rather in the conditions that handicapthem. In Dolnt of ability Bailey of Texashas had few superiors in the NationalLegislature. Senator Money Js a man

of great powers. Williams, Clark anc^DeArmond have rendered valuableand brilliant services in contending for theright. Hampton, Butler and Tillman fromthis State, have all served with ability, andeach in his time has been ably seconded byour representation in the Lower House.These men have not shaped legislation to

any great extent but the fault is not theirsThe combined talents of % Demosthenes,Cicero, Burke and Calhoun, similarly situatedwould have counted for no more.

Hie only road to Influence in that bodywould be spurned by the honest, self-respectingrepresentative of the South.The News and Courier is of the opinion

that the brain and talent of the Southhave been employed in building up South_ern industries. \

We grant that the South generally, andthis State particularly, has developedsome great "Captains of Industry" and theSouth owes much to these men and theirnorthern connections. We can not concedethat these men have had a monopolyon either the brain or the integrity of thecountry, j.nomas jenereon «aa a itmui«

as a business man, and beyond ruggedhonesty the same might be said of AndrewJackson and Monroe. And yet thesemen have ail rendered valuable services totheir country. The man who carries thespirit of commercialism into politics isnot capable of becoming the highest typeof representative. If captains of industryhave eschewed politics and have embracedbusiness Instead, it is because they haverecognized the bent of their minds, andthey have succeeded where they wouldperhaps have failed in 'a different line.The capacity to make and save money,and even an advanced education, do notnecessarily make a man better capable ofrepresenting ms people man some ouier

man of few attainments and more commonsense. The thinking man is the productof the country with its disadvantages.The machine man of business detail, isthe product of the city and town, withsuperior advantages.We believe our representation since the

war has been made up of men of honestyof purpose and of more than averageability. We believe that ultimately men

of this type can accomplish more for theState and more for common people of thenation by standing firmly for principle, as

they have done in the past. We will beentirely satisfied if they will undertake no

short cuts either for themselves or for us

to secure anything at the hands of Cannon,Aidrich, and that trust-fed gang.

Lein SituationTheopinion of the lawyers on the 1'enquestion is that the act of 1909 only repealedthe right of a farmer to give a leinto any person other than his land lord;mat toe iana lora nas a rignt to roiKeadvances to his tenant and in doing o

has a right to take a lien on the crop as

has been done under the leln law.The landlord cannot, however take such

a lien and then turn it over to a merchantand allow such merchant furnish his tenantwith supplies. '

The landlord then has the right to takealQfc on crops as collateral to the furnishingof his tenant, but the merchant isshut off from taking such lein.

It does not matter much. We are allgoing to live, anyhow, and we will have towork as we have always done.

Tanden PeliganyTwo minutes elapsed between the secur-

s ing of a divorce and obtaining anotherlicense, in the case of Mrs. Silvey Speer ofAtlanta, Ga., who divorced her first husyband,Speer, to marry a second, MarshallMcKenzie. Why not expedite matters byissuing both the writ of divorcement andlicense to marry on the same paper insuch a case? It would so- simplify matters.In other words kick one out of theback door and pull another in at the frontat one and the same time. '

'«V.Commissioner Watson and a few housewivesare quarreling about the price of

brooms, but the cotton farmer makes no

complaint. Why should he?

"Alone In a saw mill at midnighV havn'tyou some dim, vague recollection of havingseen it somewhere?

; {The Anderson Intelligencer speaks of

Mr. J. L. Jolly winning prizes with hisgame chickens. Wonder if he is any kinto Manse, just like him to raise gamechickens.

i

* Paid Quick.A colored man in this county bought 15o

acres of land a year ago, paying $250 caah;with leave to pay $200 a year for five years |making the purchase price $1,250. Hecome up last week, after selling his cotton,and paid the whole^f the credit portionwhen a negro can pay for a farm in one ]year, why should any white man not havea home of his own? j

Business LivelyCottoncontinues to come to market dailyand whiskey comes to consignees everyday. The average number of bales wouldlikely reach 75 a day and the gallons ofwhiskey is estimated at from 75 to 100gallons daily. jThe cotton ware house has 3,000 bales in

storage and our banks have about halfmillion in their vaults writing for customers.

If you can't shop early, why, by the pi-per that played before Moses, shop late!

The authorities are still pouring liquorou the cobble stones and into gutters. Itis to be hoped that the next Legislaturewill doctor us for such thin-skinnedsqueamishness.

The Anderson Mail says that mules '

walk railroad trestles.at night, too.

Cook Is raw, now.'

,. . i

Missionaries ought to bp sent to Atlanta".Tl^e treatment of prisoners in the stockadoseem to be unsurpassed for cruelty. i

William Billy is to lecture on "The (Prince of Peace." He ought to go to ,

preaching. He would make a good missionary. '

" ,Several cotton mills of New England 1

have closed down in order" to curtail. ^Three and a half thousand operatives are jthus thrown out of work. The New Englandmills should run as long as they can,for, with the present outlook, there will becurtailment for lack of cotton soon ratherthan high priced cotton.Let Mr. Southern farmer get it into his

head to raise his own provisions at homeand then the New England mills will havesomething to curtail for sure enough.The price of cloth is just as sure to go

up as the price of cotton is to remain up.The Southern farmer does not care howhigh a price he has to pay for one shirtwhen ho has a thousand shirts to sell, justas the Western farmer would like to paxhighprices for his flour and meal for thenhe could sell his farm products at a highprice. tLet the price of cloth soar into ''the altitudinousdepths of ethereal expanse" for

aught we care. Thereby the price of.cot- \ton will also soar.

A New Firm '

Mr. William Perrin of tho Perrin Cloth- iing Company has sold out his entire interestin the firm to Messrs. Jack Pressley c

and W. B. Perrin.The new firm will continue the business

at the same place. Messrs. Perrin and lPressley are wide-awake young men and 1are preparing to do a hustling business. 1

Abbeville does a large clothing businessand one reason of the fact is that her clothiersknow their business in every detail, /

and in consequence can give the customer jthe worth of his money..t

Willington School Wins $100 Prize, tThe executive committee of the Rural

School Improvement Association of South tCarolina has awarded prizes to various Ischools over the State. 1

Facts About Our State UniversityA few lines on the State University will

perhaps, be of interest to the readers ofhe Press and Banner. This institutionloubtless, is not as well known as some>f the other institutions of learning of thisitate, notwithstanding the fact that it isheir senior by many years. Consideringhe fact that this is our State Unitersityind also that it could be made one of the>est Universities in the United States, thejeople of the State should take more inerestin it.The University of South Carolina had a

nore successful opening this year than itlas had since it was founded. The numberof students enrolled being 319; severalnore than have been at the beginning of.nyyear before this, and as good manynore than-was enrolled last year. Abbeillecounty is fairly well represented,lavinc one out of this number. There are 8rom other states, leaving a total of 302roin the other counties of this state.The new president, Dr. Samuel Chileslitchell, is a native of Mississippi, thoughis parents were originally from thisState. J)r. Mitchell is a very active manie has the interests of the Universitv ateart, and will do much towards makingt a leadiug institution. He is very popuirwith the students having endearedimself to them at lirst acquaintance.Ie often entertains students at his homend is ready and willing to aid them inny matter at all times.All forms of athletic games are playedt Carolina. There is a well equipped:ynasium here under the management ofcompetent instructor. The college auhoritiesrequire the students to take

ilentv of outdoor and such gymnasiumork as will produce good health.The Legislature has recently made twoppropriations for new buildings, one ofrhich has been completed and is in usee ii pIsikr room hiiiUlinc. The other is

apidly going "P and will be used tt.s aeience hall. These buildings are splenidstructures and help the appearance oflie campus very much, An appropriation> now needed for the dormitories. Theumber of students has increased so thatlany rooms are too crowded, for the comjrtof all.The Clariosphic and Euphradian literaryncieties are active organizations and areer.v beneficial to the students. These soietiesget out two publications. TheCariolina", a monthly literary magazine,nd the "Gamecock" a weekly paper conxiningcampus news notes. A third pubcationis gotten out by the whole studentody.
