Mr. Carl Goerch, "Editor, Washington, Dally Xawa, Washington, S. C. My dear Mr. Qoerch: ] I have road with a great deal of interest your editorial of the 15th instant re.ating to 'the renomlnation of Colonel Grimes for Secretary of State. While what you say Is good, a study of the actual facta makes his case a great deal stronger than does your editorial. Knowing that you" wou d like to give the facts as they are, 1 am taking the liberty of writ- j leg you and am giving you some of the terms which other people have 1 held as State officers'; thus showing that the so?called "rotation" Idea la not only not Democratic doctrine, but has never been practiced by the j party at all. V*e do not hear any question of ! -lr il-.ut.<> Tor ofllce raised by rea son of the fact that these people have served the State for a great dal longer time in many cases than has Colonel Grimes. An a matter of fact, in most cases, their service is counted as an asset, and they are looked upon as being better qualified to fill those various positions by | reason of the experience they have had. ? I The following are some of the ! men: j Judge Walter Clark ? Judge ot thej Superior Court 1885-1889; Associate Justice of the Supreme Court 1889- : 1902; Chief Justice Supreme Court, 1902-1920.
