The result is par tially accounted for by the most com plete political Organization avor at tempted heretofore ill South Carolina, but there was .something more than that mid something which we are not yet prepared to account for. We felt that it was liiere, but OS there is no apparent cause fo an upheaval in this stat". the motive of this swelling of a popular tide iu behalf of Blease is not apparent. There is the spirit of revolution in hard or panicky times; South Carolina was never more pros porous. What is the psychology of If?

The State made the tight for l-Va therstone but knew that conditions - particularly that indefinable mental condition of the people - were against I his election, and his defeat, greatly disappointing as it is. is not surpris ing. And as there does exist this un dercurrent of feeling in South Caro lina, we can accept the result with philosophy, and hope for the best for South Carolina. South Carolina must go forward, whoever be the governor: WO eon not pause for disasters. The agencies ror progress and law and justice must continue to face forward, The pendulum has swung far one way; it will return.?Columbia State Mr. Peatherstone mad a hard and able light against groat odds.
