COUNTRY DRAWS LONG BREATH

The s~ixty-Third Congress adjourned
Thursday, after an almost e%ontinuou,
session of two years, and the country
may now draw a long breath of relief
The principal snaetments were the
Underwood TariT law, Federal Reserve
Bank act, ANTITRUST laws supplement-
ing the sherman law, repeal of Pa
mama canal tolls ,semption for Amer
iean-owned coastwise shipping, law di-
recting the construction Of a govern
ment- owned Alaskan railway at a
cost of $50, 0OO,o00, act regulating
cotton exchanges, special internal
revenue tax, government val risk IN
suranee bureau law.
The principal measures defeated
were the administration ship purchase
bill and the Philippine self govern
ment act.
1t would probably be much better
for the country had all the measures
been defeated. BY using his political
patronage as a elah, President Wilson
succeeded in forcing through Con
gress, against the judgment of many
members of his political faith, a large
number of his political hobbies, but he
carried his pitcher to the wen once
too often. His ship purchase bill was
more than many of he senators could
stomach, and Notwithstanding the par
tvs lash, applied with vigor, enough
Democrats bolted to insure the defeat
of the measure.
Although the President threatened
that he would call an extra session of
Congress unless his ship purchase bill
was enacted, it is probable that
bluff is included among his many
accomplishments, for the administra-
tion leaders in both branches of Con-
gress are unanimous in their opinion
that there will be 40 extra session.
But should the new Congress be call
ed in extra session, it is not probable
that the President would have the in
iuence with it that he did with the old
Congress during its closing days.
However, as both houses of the Six
ty-Fourth Congress VIII be Democrat
ic, although by smaller majorities than
the Sixty-Third, tie business interests
OF the country wlll be compelled to
wait for another two years for the re-
that is certain to come.

THE CALL TO ARMS HAS BEEN
SOUNDED

Almost co-lncident with the official
does not recognize any harm done by
the Tariff to business, and that there
will be no Tariff relief so long as the
present administration remains in
power, there come a call for action
from New York ard Pennsylvania.
The Pennsylvania house of reple-
sentatives has just passed a resolution
calling upon Congress TO repeal the
present Democratic Tariff act, and at
tributing to this legislation the bust
ness and industrial hardships which
have thrown hundreds of thousands of
men and women out of employment.
1t is proposed that the legislatures of
other states shall take similar action.
The Republican club of the City of
New York, which is one of the larg-
est political organizations, has adopted
the following resolution:
eve are unconmpromisingly in IA
vor of the American system of Pro
lection and we protest against its de-
struction by the existing Tariff law.
This law serves the interests of for
eign nations; we support the interests
of the United States of America. We
accept the issue thus made, and we
confidently appeal to the people for
their judgment. The Protective sys-
TEN must be restored and maintained.
Its abandonment has always been fol
lowed by general d saster to all in
~terests. We denounee the existing law
as destructive to general business, TO
labor, and to the farming interests of
the country. We heartily endorse the
patriotic efforts of Republican United
States Senators aud Representatives
in Congress looking toward a repeal
of the existing low tariff law and the
enactment of a Protective Tariff that
shall restore to American labor and
industry their full rights in the Amer
lean Market
BY standing pat on the existing Tar
if law, the Democrats have made tbs
Tariff issue inevitable in the nexi
campaign. While IT is true that the
stoppage or some or the imports, Que
to the European war, has been equiv
alent to a Protective Tariff, except IN
the raising of revenue, the greater
danger of the present low Tariff viii
be encountered after the present wal
is over.
If industries have been harmed by
the Tariff under present conditions
what may be expscopd when the wal
ends and millions of workers, now OF
the field of battle, return to the mills
and factories to work at wages thai

kelton, Feb. 15.-After a week of
beautiful weather it is raining again
today. A few farmers had started
their plows but l fear their land wa,
not ready-too wet to plow.
Charlie Harris, an old time colored
man died last Friday and was bur-
led Saturday. He was Industrious
and was much respected by the white
people. He was democrat and
voted for Wade Hampton in 1876.
and always voted with the democrats.
These old slaves are passing away
very fast and when they are all gone
their influence will be missed among
the younger negroes. Too many of
them get a little education and it

to Uncle Charities wishes several

he wanted him to do so.

road funds, and heaven knows how
much more, 1 don't, and too, most
behind with about $4,000 dollars on
every school district in the county is
now paying from three to six mills
taxes for the maintenance of better
schools. Certainly there is no need
of making slaves of people under
taxation. Every person, as a rule,
loves to have the best that there is
to be had, but then there is limit
to all things. Some one has said
that we (meaning this generation)
should build the roads and let the
next generation help pay for them,
but this sounds like very poor logic
to me. The next genaration will
have just as much room for improve
Tnents ias we have, and more so, for
as time passes it calls for greater
things. The road funds of this coun-
try would keep our roads in much
better shape than they are now in
If some road overseers and road
patchers did not dig so lavishly into
the funds to pay them for the small
amount of work done on the road.
If more people would do some
work on the roads instead of so much
grumbling about them, we would have
better roads. There was some ex-
cellent work pulled off on our road
last week with split log drag. 1t
snoothed the roads so completely
that an automobile could make fast
progress on them. Messrs C. G.
Ivey, j. H. Black, Victor Smith and
myself did the work which cost the
county not a cent.

OAKLAND

Oakland, Feb. 16.-Some work 10
nsw being done ON the farm in the
way of ploughing up terraces. cut
ting stalks and shrubbing back the
hedges, and had it continued dry
many ploughs would soon have been
turning the soil. Rain has checked
garden work again for several days.
Some few gardens have already been
ploughed but the ground was rateh
wet.
The much talked of bad roads,
which has prevailed throughout every
section of the county for the past
two months, and which has furnished
a mouthpiece for half the people to
harp on, has been the cause of the
campaign which is now on foot t..
raise funds to establish permanent
roads on the main highways of the
county. This partial road building
which will benefit only the minority
of the people is not likely to meet
with much favor or support from
those who are not living on the roads
to be built. Every voter of Union
county should realize just what con-
dition our county is now in (finan.
cially) before imposing greater re-
sponsibilities upon her. The present
times are very squally to undertake
such proposition, as it is to be de-
termined by the voters of this coun-
ty on April 9Th. We must remember
that our $4,000 dollar Courthouse
