SECn. BRYAN
GETS ROAST"
FOR HIS GOING OUT ON THE
CHAUTAUQUA LECTURE
PLATFORM
BILL is INTRODUCED
To Make 1t a Criminal OHense
For a Member of Cabinet to
Lecture For Money

Washington, June 8.-Secretary
Bryan's lecture tours cropped up in
the House again Monday when Repre-
sentative Britten, of Illinois, Republi-
can, introduced bill to make a pen
al offense for any cabinet officer, head
or clerk of a government department
to lecture for pay other than actual
hotel and travelling expenses, and to
prohibit senators or representatives
from lecturing for pay while Congress
IS in session. Offenders would be fined
$4,000 or imprisoned for two yers or
suffer both penalties.
Mr.. Britten launched broadside, in
statement accompanying his bill, in
which he spared no political party, and
included Senator LaFolleGte and Rep
resentative Murdock. He said:
"This bill was prepared last Sep
tember, but was not introduced when
Secretary Bryan formally declared
that he would lecture nc more during
the period. The recent announcement
from Philadelphia that several mem
bers of Congress and the distinguished
secretary, of state had signed contracts
for period Of the beginning OF July
l, is responsible for my bill.
"L am at a loss to understand how
the secretary can consistently leave
his office when a state Of war prac-
tically exists between this country and
Mexico and the foreign policy Of our
government is being laughed at by
every civilized nation on earth. This
certainly is no time for Mr.. Bryan to
be hiking around the country doing
one night stands with tyrolean yod-
lers, contortionists and sleight of-hand
artists, and I am equally opposed to
members of congress doing this sort
of thing when congress is in session.
"The Philadelphia announcement de-
clared that Secretary Bryan, Senator
LaFollette and Congressman Murdock
had signed contracts for lectures be-
ginning July 1. Speaker Clark last
year cancelled contracts at a loss to
him, of s10,gO00, on account of his
aversion to being away from Con-
gress. I purpose to ask the House jul
dietary committee for a hearing with
view to some action along this line"
Secretary Bryan announced some
time ago that all his lecture engage
nients for. the coming summer were
ccntnigent upon the State Of foreign
affairs and whether he could be away
from WASHINGTON. .-

A LONG DELAY
ON TRUST BILL
SENATE COMMITTEE PULLED
OFF QUITE A SURPRISE
MONDAY
THE CLAYTON BILL
VIII Be Considered By the Senate
Before 1t Acts Upon Other
Measures Before 1t

Washington, June S.-A new COM
plication in the way Of early action
on antitrust legislation in the Sen
ate appeared today when the judiciary
committee decided to take up the
Clayton antitrust bill for consldera-
ton. The committee has not, con-
sidered many subjects dealt with in
the bill, such as interlocking directo-
rates and holding companies, and with
a wide divergence of opinion as to
the manner in which their prohi-
bition should be attempted, several
weeks probably will pass before re-
port can be made to the Senate.
The committee adjourned again to
meet in a week, when it is expected
to decide the question Of public hear
ings on the bill.
The Clayton bill, as it passed the
House, contains the provision specif-
ically exempting labor and other or
ganizations from antitrust laws, and
this probably will lead to lengthy dis
cussion in the committee. Senator
Kern, leader of the majority, said to-
day that the Senate would legislate on
this line in some form.
While the judiciary is consider
ing the Clayton bill, the interstate
commerce committee will also con-
tinue its analysis of many Of the sub
jects covered in that measure. Chair
man Newlands announced that the
decision of the judiciary committee
would not influence his committee and
that he intended to go ahead as if an
other committee had not entered the
antitrust legislation field.
Mr.. Newlands intends this week to
lay before the Federal trade COM
mission, approved by his committee
and vertical with the measure passed
by the House.
There were more evidences today OF
opposition in the commerce commit
tee to the trade commission bill. Sen
ator Lippitt, who opposed the motion
to report it last week, issued state
ment vigorously criticising it's pro-
visions. He said the bill is not de-
signed to aid business in any way and
has no constructive powers at all;
that ito discuss the one guilty person,
it puts the 999 innocent ones under
an intolerable suspicion and unjus-
tifiable trouble and expense" and
the 10000 business concerns it af-
fects $2O,O00,0O annually to respond
to its demands" -

Queen Esther.

We were unavoidably prevented from
attending Erskine College commencement,
and heard but little Of the closing exer-
cises Of the Woman's College. We did
hear the admirable speech Of Rev. Thorn
well Jacobs, anniversary orator, and the
brief but catchy speech Of DR.. j. j. Lind
say in delivering some half dozen or more
medals to the young ladies.
An attractive feature of Wednesdays
entertainment was the rendition Of the de-
lightful old cantata, "Queen Esther" by
local talent.
We have never enjoyed performance
more; and the fact that the college had
been disappointed in attempting to get a
curtain and the further fact that there
was lack Of professional training made
the staging all the more natural. The en-
trance on and departure from the stage
seemed all the more natural, all the more
like real life in the great throne room Of
the great Persian king.
The principal parts, without exception,
were rendered by singers Of good voices,
several or whom give promise OF dlstlnc'
tion in vocal music. Most Of the per-
formers were known to US personally
which added greatly to the attraction OF
the performance.
Taking the two colleges at Due West to-
gether there is plenty Of talent to give
one or more such performances annually,
and the training is well worth while. This
can be made not only one Of the most at
tractive features Of the commencement,
but it can be developed into an attractiye
advertisement for the colleges In sur
rounding cities. Miss Long and Mrs. o.
Y. Bonner were doubtless the moving
spirits in directing the performance are
deserving of great praise. We would be
glad for them to repeat the performance
in Abbeville next fall.

COL. ROOSEVELT
VISITS SPAIN
There Was Some Newspaper Talk
Before His Arrival, But No
Other Interest Shown

Madrid, Spain, June S.-Theodore
Roosevelt arrived at Madrid today to
attend the wedding of his son, Kermit
and Miss Wyatt Willard, daughter of
the American ambassador to Spain.
A small crowd gathered at the sta
tion. Police in plain clothes were
distributed about the depot as re-
suit of the publication of several
newspaper articles antagonistic to
Colonel Roosevelt. The chief Of po-
lice had feared the possibility Of un-
friendly feeling being displayed but
none was shown.
There was an affectionate greeting
between Colonel Roosevelt and his
son, Kermit and his daughter, Mrs.
Nicholas Longworth, Colonel Joseph
E. Willard, the Spanish ambassador,
members Of the embassy staff, the
Spanish secretary Of state, also were
at the station to meet Colonel Roose-
velt. He was driven to- the American
embassy. ...,.
King Alfonso travelled on the same
train with Colonel Roosevelt for a
number of miles with Colonel Roose-
Welt but as ca ch was unaware of the
presence of the other there was no
meeting.
The king will not be present at the
wedding ceremony, but it is said he
probably will meet Colonel Roose-
velt on Wednesday. ... ..

Manners Maketh Man.

F. Hopkinson Smith, in one of his
sketches, lamented that in the hurry
and rush which obtain in the present
era good manners has become con-
spicuous by their absence, saying:
I'VE live so fast that we have not time
to be polite" His lament Is recalled
by story told by lady from Vir'
ginia who lately visited New York.
The story was about prayer credited
to Uncle Nat" an old darky VINO
had served for many years as butler
in the house. The prayer concluded
in this wise: Make me so lib dat
when Ah does All will know what to
say when All meets nah Hebenfy Mas.
ter-so he sure All done had proper
raisin' and learnt ma manners"

On HayIno Friends.

On the psychology of having friends,
Dr. George A. Coe said at the last
meeting Of the American Psychologi.
cal association that the naive under.
standing would assert, first, that what
each friend enjoys is the other friend,
not merely goods to me mediated by
him, and. second, that the reason why
a giver is valued above his gift lie
that giver has experiences. We value
objects not only as experienced, but
as having experiences. The sayings
There Is continuity of substance be-
tween minds" and Individuals over
lap" do not sufficiently account for
the value attached to having" a
friend. He says, in effect, that psy.
chology is up stump" in it's attempt
either to deny or to translate into 9th,
er terms the simple assertion that
one enjoys a second experiencing"
through friendship.

The Whitmire Incident
(Newberry Herald and News.)
90 o o o o o o o 0 {

(Newberry Herald and News.)
We were present at the Whitm1re
meeting on last Saturday when Coy
ernor Blease spoke. We heard the
the tilt between Mr.. William Coleman
and the governor. We. regret that 1t
took place. We are constrained to say
that we do not think the governor was
justified in his attack on Mr.. Coleman.
We have known Mr. Coleman for a
good many years. We know some
thing of the work he Is doing at
Whitmire. While not political sup
porter Of the, governor, as q mark OF
respect to him, he came down to the
meeting to hear him speak when he
was a guest of the town. We do not
think that a candidate for Office nor
an Office seeker has right or Is JUS
titled in making a personal attack on
private citizens who happen not to be
political supporters Of them. MIR.
Coleman Is well known private citi-
zen and has a right 20 his own opia-
ions. The governor produced no evil
dence that Mr.. Coleman has used any
undue influence to prejudice the ope-
ratives in this mill against the gov
ernor. We feel the incident was very
unfortunate.
From all shat we have seen, and
heard of Mr. Coleman and his mill
he has been kind enough to the en-
ployes of the mill and has done what
he could for their comfort and better
ment and they all hold him in high es-
TEEN. He has encouraged the build
ing of a good school and the levy1ng
Of taxes to maintain it, the greater
part of which are paid by the proper
ty of the mill. He has built fine
office building and in it has provided
a hall which Is used by the opera
tives for lodge hall and any other
meetings which they may desire to
hold. We esteem Mr.. Coleman as a
high-toned gentleman and do not
think that the governor should have
made the attack on him which he did.
Or that he was justified in doing it,
and we regret that he did. We can
not see where it can accomplish any
good.
