MIR. HORIZONS CAMPAIGN


We are printing in this issue of the
Press and Banner excerpts from MI.
John A. Horizons home paper advo-
eating him for Congress, the sub,
stance of the article having been
taken from Mr.. Horizons campaign
speech. -
The article reiterates that MI.
Aiken was undemocratic in voting
for free tolls through the Panama
canal, all of which Mr.. Aiken. has
explained first in his iron bound
pledge to vote for the principles of
the party and with his colleagues in
Congress, both of which he did lin
voting with Champ Clark, Oscar. Un-
derwood and Claude Kitchen, the
Democratic Speaker, the Democratic
floor leader and the next Democratic
floor leader of the National HOUSE. :
The tolls vote was never made a
party issue, and it would be as absurd
to say that Mr.. Aiken is not a true
Democrat because he does not APP
prove the Presidents policy in ap-
pointing a negro Judge for the Dis
trict Of Columbia, and a negro Reg
istrar Of Deeds in the City of Wash.
iugton, where white people have to
work under him.
Mr.. Horton got his logic a little
mixed in saying that the free tolls
vote was taking money out of the
pockets of the people and putting it
in the pockets of the shipping trust:
If the money is actually taken outaof
the pockets of the people it is now
put in the pockets of transcontinen-
tai railroads, and this evil the Demo-
cratic platform that Aiken voted
with, sought to remedy.
The fact is, nearly all the coastwise
vessels that ply the Atlantic and the
Pacific coasts are English owned,
some thirty odd on each coast, and
the same syndicate owns a railroad
across lower Mexico, which transfers
freight from ocean to ocean. Free
tolls to American vessels would break
up this English syndicate, the only
real shipping trust operating on our
=. j.
Mr.. Horton attacks, MI. Aiken's
vote on the Pure Food Bill Mr..
Aiken voted against that bill when
it contained provisions that were de-
structive Of the principle of States
Rights, a principle that is dear to
every true southerner. When that
Bill was amended, as Mr.. Horton
knows it was, having read the
amendment to an Anderson audi
ence, Mr.. Aiken favbred and voted
for the bill and that is alltsthere is
to it. H.. &
The fact is, the fellow that is in Of
fee is always a devitpf a fellow, and
his opponents can see nothing good
in him. This is human nature, but
the fellow who is running against
him should really .tshow something
in his own record to?lead the people
to believe that he$will be better or
even haIfas good. This Mr., Aiken's
opponents have signally failed to do.
Mr.. Horizons booster says, "lf you
do vote for him every indication is
that he will be in the second race,
and If he is he wiiEAa. slseted." That
is a self-evident R~gppssation that
be spoken in behalf of Mr.;
and Mr.. Evans as well,
but that SIP il piling mountain high
and the signs Of the times are that
these gentlemen will have to study
Aiken's record for two years more
for some fiimsy pretext on which to
to get the plum themselves

Chester High School at West Chester.

two teams this season, and just how
much improvement each team will

The probable lineup of the Friends
School team in the game tonight will
consist OF Wilson and Layiield at for

these on the team OF West Chester
High School will be Captain Miller
and l.. Shields at forward: Dean at
center, and Guss and Mercer at

The effect of the improvement in
the play OF the Friends School men
was seen last Tuesday when they de-
feated the FIVE Of Swarthmore Pre-

NEWARK, Del Jan. 16- officials
of the Newark Baseball Club, which
for the past two seasons was a mem
Der of the Tri-County League, are
still agitating the formation of an
other league that would take more
New Castle county teams and make a
much more compact circuit Be
cause of the heavy expense in get
ting TO towns in the Tri-County
League and the fact that the attend
ance was very small in most Of them.
Newark lost money last season.

ing about prospects for the coming
season, stated that he wiuld like to
see a league organized with Newarr
Elkton. Elk Mills. New Castle. Della

is Of the opinion that rivalry would be
keen in all these towns. and the ox-

ruined and the statesmen were
doubtless sincere in their argu-
ments for the sugar industry.
But they did not realize what
the effect of such argument
would be upon the man who was
looking for a place to build a
home. He would naturally con-
clude that any State which could
be ruined by the removal Of a
cent or two a pound on sugar
was pretty good place to stay
away from, and the result has
been that all of the advertising
that has been done by the rail-
roads, commercial clubs and real
estate men has been, in a great
measure, r, ndered useless by the
great cry to save the State by
saving sugar.
Sin conclusion, we would say
to the farmer Of the North and
West: If you own your farm
and are satisfied stay where you
are, but if you think of making a
change, if you wish to enlarge
your holdings. orb a farm for
your son, take..the time to 80 and
see what Louisiana has to offer i,
for I believe that she has tho
greatest opportunities of any
State in the Union, not to men,
ton the vast orange groves south
of New Orleans and the open
land in that vicinity. 1t will pay
you to 60 and see for yourself,
for you can find any kind of land
you desire. During the ages of
the past the Mississippi river has
been carrying the fertile soils of
some thirty-six States down and
depositing it in the delta here.
