lMAGING THE STATE
PAHT1SIAX ACTION OF THE
00\ FlCX OK.
r’e have never tried to annoy
eruor Lawson by »ty vom
its upon the details el .» « aumin
Uiou. As the governor, he is
tied to lair treatment; and as a
i, we have nothing but kindness
him. But his attitude towards
Jamestown commission, aud his
ic admission that he yielded to
iture and took a position with
nou-partisian body concerning
nilicaut patronage which com
d such a liberal democrat us
jveruor MacCorkle, and so streu
a republican as F. M. Staunton,
ssigu lather than subordinate
thing to politico or to the gov
's wishes, is a new departure,
state s participation in exposi
has alwa\b been on lines oth*n
partisan politics; but the Jauies
^ (position is doomed to have
ig but republicans lake pm t in
[Vest Virginia exhibit. The
itural department is under Mr.
. a republican; the educational
menl is in charge of Superin*
it Miller and his son, both re
ins; the coal exhibit is haud
Neil Uobinsou and his sou,
fpublicans. It was, therefore,
serious a matter that Miss
k, a most competent and de
Charleston girl, should be
by Messrs. MacCorklo and
>n to be matron. As to poll
e stands exactly where ever>
ut for this position stood. She
oted Hie democratic ticket in
i. but Peyton Carr, our col
iend, was also named for
Well, Peyton is a domo

vernor Dawson Is his friend
ten he votes the republican
ommisslon, serving without
delegated to name employes
after stato's interests. As
rs the case, only some of
ok active part In tho work,
ils case none were more iu
or active than Messrs. Mae
nd Staunton. They finished
ling, nearly completed the
linn, organized all the de
s, filled every position with
hs, and all to suit the gov
id finally, when ex-Governor
M. Staunton and ex-Gov
iCCorkle, an executive com
vo republicans and one dein
et to name a matron and a
or the building, and they
this duty by naming a
t and refined lady for ma
timber, well-oehaved and
olored man for janitor, we
at it Is working the pollt
too strongly and is clear
ti the dignity of the chief
to interefere.
ecedent thus set is a bail
ou^T^Ali the people are interested j
in the exposition. Right-thinking
republicans do not exi*ect or desire
that democrats shall proscribe, and
this civic-hislotic event made a po
litua! machine. The statement of
the go\eruor admits that his reasons
* ore porTtical, and that he is either
a bitter partisian or too weak to
stand the criticisms oflhat kind of
people who would Interfere to ouBt
an educated, deserving lady from a
position to which she ha been fairly
appointed.
The action of Governor MacCorkle
and Mr. Staunton iu resigning rather
than have their action reversed or
ignored, is commended by the peo
ple. They could not do otherwise.
On the whole, we are sorry rather
than angry. It is the state that has
beeu injured by the governor's un
fortunate course.—Charleston Ga
I xette.
TOO MUCH
INTERFERENCE
Instead of beggiug alius of the
Federal government, let us keep the
Federal government out of our do
mestic’ affairs as fur us possible. We
have already too much Federul med
dling with our interests, too much
paternalism, too much outside pres
sure. The South can educate its
own children, if it will, uud to ask
outside uid is positively disgrace
ful.—Houston Tost.
