A Warning From Kenyon

Senator Kenyon, of Iowa. Ii Re
publican, q member OF the minority
I'm the upper house OF congress. Here
In what he told the Democratic ma
jority In speech on Saturday,:
"You have a great leader, q great
president. strong In the affections OF
the people OF this country. pay my
tribute TO him. l am glad he II pres
ident OF the United States In these
troublous times, and that with such =
steady hand he In guiding this old
ship OF state through the rocks and
shoals that are besetting II. l glory
in his manhood. You have . right
to feel that that IL q Leadership 20
be proud Of"
The Iowa senator then went on to
say that Mr.. Wilson ID stronger than
his party with the people of the Unit
ed States and that when majority
members insisted on violating their
platform pledge for economy In gov
ornamental expenditures, they were
perhaps unconsciously counting upon
their leaderis popularity TO pull them
through at election time. Il was .
timely warning from q worthy and
not entirely unfriendly foe.
The Immediate incentive for the
Kenyon statement disappears with
the virtual defeat Of the rivers and
harbors bill in its original form, but
the necessity for rigid economy In
the further expenditures Of this ses-
sion remaihs a. strong q ever. The
warning ought not TO be ignored. ~

THE PARTY STILL IN POWER.

The recent election furnished no
ground for discouragemenu to the
Democratic party. 1t is true that
the party's majority in the House of
Representatives has been greatly
reduced, but there is still left a good
working majority, while the majori-
ty In the Senate has been Increased.
1t is cause for qualification that the
Democrats STILL retain control of all
branches OF the government, for the
truth is II was solely because of the
split In the Republican party two
years ago that the Democrats won.
1t will be remembered that President
Wilson. when elected did not re-
ceive a majority Of the total vote.
The country will have two more
years of Democratic rule, which
means that President Wilson Will
have enacted into laws the remain
ing planks in the Democratic plat
form

STREET PAVING.

Chesterfield avenue Is so much i'm
proved by the paving of it's side
walks that it should be a good ex-
ample to the other residence dis
tricts of the town. Not only have
the residents in this attractive street
responded we'll to the offer of the
town to pay half the cost of paving,
but many of them have in addition
paved the long walks leading to
their front doors. Beyond the four
feet of paving there is room on the
inside as well as the outside for
property owners are going to have
next spring. The street already has
beautiful trees, which together with
the grass add so much to the beauty
of our residence streets.
We hope friendly rivalry will
arise and that every section of our
town will vie with every other sec
tion in striving for the best appear
ing neighborhood and the best-kept
street.
We hope therefore that as they
shall yet be given opportunity. the
good people of Lancaster will pave
their sidewalks, then help the Civic
League with its grass and tree plant
ing, all working together for a more
attractive looking town. If we work
hard this winter, by the coming
spring and summer we will be per-
mitted to see wonderful transfer

Our KesponsibiIity.

The effort to be made in Salisbury
to raise money for the Red Cross Is
most commendable. The winter will
perhaps be the heaviest call ever
made on the people Of the nation for
donations to relief work, for the
American people must face their
solemn duty in taking the heavy por-
tion OF the burden in worldwide re-
lief work. The Belgian people are
racing starvation, yes thousands OF
theln, ana we must meet our respon-
slblllty and help generously. 1t will
not be simply a case of donating
few pennies and forgetting it. but il
will be the hard serious task of
meeting n great and serious respon-
Sibility, worldwide responsibility
which will test our very character as
a nation in the meeting-S Salisbury

Live at Home.

The present conditions in the
South are brought about by the fact
that we have planted all cotton for
years. Everybody realizes this and
have known all the time we should
plant other crops and live at home
but realize it more fully now than
ever Make your arrangements to
live out of your own barn, and quit
raising all cotton and sending all
your money out West where the land
is worth two or three hundred dol
lars an acre. They can afford to
raise horses, mules, hogs, oats,
wheat, ETC., why can't we on land

dollars an acre?-Abbeville Medium.

GO AFTER THEM.

We have every reason to believe
that the blind tigers are operating
more boldly in Lancaster than ever
before. We therefore urge upon our
city council to take some steps to-
wards stamping out this evil in our
community. The city council of
Anderson has taken the evil in
hand in that city with good effect
We commend to our city fathers the
following editorial from The Ander-
son Intelligencer or the subject:
Suppose that during last night a
wild tiger should have come up out
of the Seneca river, and have attack
ed and carried off little boy living
on the outskirts of Anderson. The
grief of the parents would be pitiful.
and there would hardly be a man
left in the city till this beast had
been hunted down and killed. Sup
pose that in spite Of their efforts, the
same tiger should come back to-
night and terribly MAIN one of the
bright fair-haired little girls that
had been playing with her compan-
ions on the lawn. Tomorrow morn
ing the efforts OF the citizens of An
derson, and doubtless of the entire
community, would all be directed
towards finding and killing this wild
animal that had brought sorrow and
grief to two homes. The mental pic
ture of the mangled corpse OF the
boy and girl would be enough to
drive to desperation those who con
templated it,
Men of Anderson: a much
worse deadly enemy to the. life and
happiness Of your boy and girl has
been committing depredations in
your city. The victims have been
and girls, but scores of as bright and
pretty little boys and girls as any
today who go tripping to school.
or playing round the ireside.
This is not beast from the
jungle but one in human guise
who lures your boy to dark
room up stairs. perhaps, and
there fills him with stuff that will
not only kill as surely as does the
wild beast. but will destroy as we'll
his immortal soul. The call goes out
to come to his rescue, and save him
from his awful fate. Are you men
to heed not the call? Will you sit
by and see the hunt" 20 on and
have no part in 1t? Do you fancy
that your boy is safe and that II is
only few who are going to be
! caught and lured to their ruin. and
that somehow your son will escape?
This matter of putting a stop to
the sale Of liquor illegally in the city
of Anderson is no child's play, and
| 1t is a task in which every citizer
who has the welfare OF the city and
of his children at heart should en-.
gage. There should be no persecu
ton Of those engaged In this illegal
traffic, but 1t should be stopped BY
peaceful means IL possible, but by
the strong arm Of the law is neces
sary."

LET,s GET TOGETHER.

Do the citizens of the town of Ian
caster realize that the illicit sale of
liquor within the corporate limits
Of the town is going on to an alarm
ing extent? Believing such to be
the case, and realizing the truth of
the saying that whats everybody s
business is nobody's business" we
have determined that The News will,
from time to time, comment editor
tally upon the condition of things,
until the Illicit traffic in liquor is
brought to an end. We have as
good people in our town as in any
community in the state, the great
majority of them being protesting
Christians, and why present condi-
tions are permitted we are at a loss
there is plenty of good, moral pub
lie sentiment against the evil, and
that all that is needed is for it to
crystalize and to use common
phrase, there will be something
doing"
The Anderson Intelligencer inau-
gurated crusade in that City against
the liquor evil with the result that
in very short time, the city author
tiles got busy and the blind tigers
were ruin out of the community. We
call upon all tho forces for good ini
this town to marshal themselves
against the blind tigers, both white
and black, and compel them to shut
up shop or leave the commuHity.
The evil effects of the traffic We can
see all about us. We see upon our
streets every day, moral andf physi-
cal wrecks, who put for, liquor
would have been good, useful citi-
zens. But while we lament and de-
plore 1T. we are doing nothing to stop
1T. If wild and ferocious animal
some night should break into
the town and carry off one
of our many bright little boys,
we would all to man be
up in arms and hunt him down.
The blind tigers of Lancaster are
doing much more harm than a real
live lion or bear, for they are insid-
iously batting to their lair not one,
but many Of our brightest and best
boys. Men and women Of Lancas-
ter, in the church and out Of the
we call upon you to fight
against the evil that is rife among
US, and make our town what the
best element want, clean. moral

Remember that under the cotton
acreage reduction law farmer
can only plant next year one-third
of his whole crop In cotton. So
that for every three acres of grain
sown this fall you can plant one acre
of cotton next spring, in addition to
one acre for every three acres OF
crops planted next year.
