Senator Taliaferro, of Florida
whose term of Office expired March
4th, said that his defeat in the recent
primary in his Statew as due prin-
clpaliy to the fact that hew as IN
able to have Florida fruits protected
IN the tariff bill. and that brother
democrat from Maryland was re
sponsible for it. It is presumed then
that the new Democratic Senator
rom Florida is even more of a pro-
tecfIonist than Mr.. Ta1iferro. How
do the Democrats expect to agree on
bill for free trade when even the
most Southern States are clamoring
for protection?

SENATOR OVERNIAN AND SEN
ATOR SIMMONS IN THE LORI
MER CASE.

The Raleigh News and Observer
have been charging that the Presi-
dent Of the United States Senate re-
fused to appoint Senator Overman as
a member of the Appalachian Forest
Commission because Senator Over
man voted against seating Senator
Lorimer; and then the Raleigh News
and Observer proceeds to pat Senator
Overman on the back for his man
hood and courage in voting against
seating Senator Lorimer, even
though he is punished for doing so.
We clip the following from an edi-
torial in that paper:
Whatever Senator Overman
lost in the matter of not secur-
ing an appointment on the APP
palachian Commission by reas-
on of voting against Lorimer
he more than made up in the
commentator of the people of
North Carolina and in the ap-
prevail of his own conscience"
II the President of the Senate
wanted to punish Senator Overman
for voting against seating Senator
Lorimer and to emphasize the fact
that he was Furnishing him for his
righteousness in so doing. why did
not the President of the Senate then
appoint Senator Simmons in the
place of Senator Overman, because
Senator Simmons voted to seat Sem
ator Lorimer?
In this connection. it seems peril
nent to ask the question as to wheth-
er or not Senator overman, in yot-
ing against seating Senator Lorimer,
may not have in some way been in
fiuenced by the suggestion that his
own election to the Senate needed
investigation?

INHUMAS HUSBAND AND FATHER


Dcpoe anu EioIHu WIN anOtIfcf
Woman.
A special from Spartanburg to yes
terday's Charlotte Observer says:
Having been left alone with her
three children. all penniless and hun,
CRY and without a single friend In
the city, Mrs. Marion Bradley, OF
Augusta. Ga, has appealed to the
police department for assistance In
locating her husband. who. she al
leges, ran of with another woman.
Arriving in Spartanburg, Bradley
left his wife and three small chill
dren at the Southern station and
went in quest of suitable boarding
house. This was at o'clock in the
afternoon. Until dark, the poor wife
and her babes waited in vain for the
return OF her husband and their faith
er. The hours OF the night wore on
and still the husband did not return.
Daylight next morning came and
without a penny with which to buy
breakfast for the children and she
herself half starved, still had faith in
the father of her babies and in a
most optimistic manner assured the
policeman at the station that soon he
would come back.
The day wore on. The suffering
of the babies with scarcely enough
clothes on their backs to protect them
from the March winds and having
gone for one entire day without a
bite OF food was intense. Regardless
of her own condition, and thinking
only of the suffering of her children,
she in a downcast manner appealed
to the police department for aid.
Charitable persons quickly made
up purse. A comfortable boarding
house was provided and the woman,
when she had cared for her young
children and herself had eaten a /
hearty meal, told a most pitiable
story to reporter.
She said that she and her hus-I
band had been living in Anderson for
some time and that she had sold
everything that they possessed with
a view Of getting saome ready cash
to move to Spartanburg where he in
tended to work. He had all of the
money, and since leaving her at the |
station has not been seen or heard of. |

ployment in one of the cotton mills
of the city and his meager wages will

and that the action OF those Demo-

The NcPhaul bill to prohibit the
manufacture and sale of cigarettes in
North Carolina was tabled in the
House last Thursday, which meant
the death of the bill.
When the bill was first introduced
1t caught the attention of our para
graph editor who then made the
prophesy in this paper that the bill
would never be enacted into law. The
Dill was not enacted into law and
neither was the Baggett antitrust
bill enacted into law. Both were
killed for some reason.

The republican town committee is
enaeavoring TO avoid a clash at the
caucus Thursday evening, provided
there is insistence upon a change in
the membership of the present town
council Some of the committeeman
were openly in opposition to the re-
nomination of Courcikmen Culley fand
Eurdick in response to the demands Of
a Gel tain class of voters, but they now
realize that such action might result
an the smashing of the entire slate,
disrupt the party organization and
RELIABLY result in the election of dem
ocrats in the town council. Therefore
tho committee is practically unani-
r1ously In favor Of the denomination 0f
ali the present councilmen.
1t is given out that there was no
opposition in the committee at any
time to the denomination of President
Wilifam r.. Clarke but that it was I'M
derstood that he was inclined to retire

While Councilman G. Clarence Maxson
has given notice that he would not be
. candidate for denomination, 1t IS un-
dersrood that he would serve another
term IL his candidacy. in the opinion OF
the town council, would tend to mar
RIO Nous caucus action. and that Pres
ident Clarke would do likewise. AZ
present plans are carried out, the town
committee will recommend for renom-
ina ton to the town council William L.
Clarke c. Clarence Maxson, Maurice
w. Flynn. Albert II. Langworthy, VIII
liam Cuflcy, Horace Z. Burdlck and

committee Is not equivalent to renom-
ination, but il not without considerable
political weight. There are some re-
publicans of prominence who may in
Sis that the First voting district be

council, and even thea the Second dis
frict would have more members than
the First. The only representative i'll
