PARTIsANsHIP RULES.

In reading the accounts Of the
hearings and the debates on the
peace treaty and the league Of ma
tions it occurred to us as little
strange and peculiar that there was
such unanimous opinion by the re-
Dublicans and democrats. In other
words, that the views Of what is right
and best should be so. clearly drawn
hat all the republicans looked at it
IN one light and all the democrats In
one light each side standing unani-
NOUS in it's view Of the situation and
what is the thing to do. We can not
help the conclusion that on this big
question it is rather small politics in
shat each side is lined up so unani-
snously in the view taken by the two
oarties and that it is rather ques-
zion Of party than Of what is the best
thing for the country to do. These
men who have been honored with
membership in what has always here.
tafore been claimed as the greatest
dehberative body in the world should
be big enough to lay aside partisan

ship or party interest, as they view
it, and discuss and act on this mo-
mentous question from the view
point of broad craftsmanship and
what is best for the entire country
and the peace Of the world, regard
less of any little party advantage
which they may think will come by
the action taken.
It is scarcely possible for the two
parties to be so divergingly unani-
nous in the views which are being
taken except on the view Of party
above country. We do not know
which is right, and we are not pre-
tending to argue that point, but what
is STANCE to US is that on this big
question the lines should be so drawn
between, the two parties on the po-
sitions taken by each and yet each
party should be so unanimous in its
view. The country wants the matter
settled so that things may get down
to normal and may feel that the war
is over and that the victory which
our boys won may be lasting. Ger
tainly none of the boys who were
over seas desire to go back again,
and they feel, we are sure, now that
they have won the fighting that the
senate and the officials should come
to an understanding without so much
delay and so much wrangling. This
is a question which should be far and
above any partisan politics, and there
must be that element in the discus
sion and the action which is proposed
or there would not be such clear cut
party division on the question, as
there al pears to be. 8,

We are trying to impress this upon
our subscribers because this is what
is going to be done this time. We
have said it SO many times before
and then did not have the well,
didn't do it faithfully, that we do
not want any one to miss his paper
on the assumption that these state
ments are bluff, because the present
manager will surely take your name
off If you have not arranged your
subscription price. Better see the
editor at once, or some one in the
office, or send the amount in prompt
". Every one who has not paid was
sent a card on the 22nd, and If there
is error we want to correct that also.
A good many have come along but
there are q good many yet.

Making History.

The annual meeting Of the Reedy
River association at Enoree church
on September 2-3 will be the most
important in it's history. The great
day will be September 3rd when the
great seventy-five million dollar
special will have the right of way.
Everything else has been sidetracked
and a record run is expected. Fast
time will be observed and made.
This meeting will make history.
Every Baptist layman in Newberry
county should be there. The church
that would lead the procession should
adopt the motto of General Forrest,
who, when asked the secret of mill
tary success, replied: "Git thar fust
with the most men,"
If you are a delegate, go; if you
are an alternate, go; if you are neith-
er delegate nor alternate, 60 anyhow.
If the crowd be too large for the
church, an outdoor meeting has its
own advantages. II we have two
simultaneous meetings, all the bet
ter. There will be speakers enough
to 20 round. Of course, the good
women will be there, lending their
heartiest support and cooperation.
Will you be there?

"He has come to stay" said the
King, "but it is only right that he
be recognized, and be properly intro
duced before the long winter sets
in"
"Who will be invited to this recep-
ton feast?" asked Chief Porky.
"We'll invite the Jack Rabbit with
his family and Sammy Squirrel Also

King.
eve should have some music for
such an occasion as this. Who shall
provide it?'
Tinker Bob had planned it all in
his mind. "Mr. Frog with his Tree
Toad chorus will give their last en-
tertainment before their voices
freeze up for the winter. Bobby
Screech Owl, Lady Duck and Mr..
Night Hawk will also sing for the
last time this season." he told Chief
Porky
At this point the conversation was
interrupted by the appearance of the
forest Sparrow.
ooh, King! Oh, King" cried the
Sparrow. Someone has stolen your
throne and he tried to kin me-"
"Stolen the throne!' exclaimed
Tinker Bob, greatly surprised. "Who
in this forest would dare to be so
bOld?" 4 "7@
"Oh, King! know not what it
was, but his nose was long and his
ears We're sharp and his face all COW
cred with hair, and when l asked him
why his teeth were so long and sharp,
he said they were made so that he
could eat me. Then he sprang upon
me, but his coat was buttoned so
tight that he lost his hold and | got
away" The forest Sparrow trem-
bled with fear, at the memory.
'T shall go at once to see who is
50 bold as this" said Tinker Bib, as
he walked away. But in his mind
felt sure that he knew who it was.

pulled the hat over his head and but
toned the coat about him and said:
What may be your trouble to-
day."
80, King" said the Sparrow
what makes you look so strange?
Your nose is so long today
"Im not strange. Ny nose is
swelled because have taken cold. ,
But said the Sparrow your
face is all covered with hair"
"That is always the way l do when
the North Wind comes this way
said the young Fox.
"But, o King, your ears are so
long and stand up so straight! I
never saw you this way before"
81 must have pointed ears in the
winter time so that I can hear the
cries of the needy above the roar of
the great North Wind" said the Fox.
II cannot understand, 0 King, why
your hands are so coarse and your
nails so long. l thought the King
was gentle and kind, that his hands
were never coarse nor his nails so
long"
"But you of the forest cannot
know as much IS l, the King" said
the young Fox. 81 tell you l am now
ready for the coming of the great
North Wind"
"And your teeth, o King, are so
long and sharp. I'm afraid to come
very close, for they make me
shiver." e
"My teeth are long and sharp so
| can eat you," said young Fox, and
he sprang upon the Sparrow, but the
Kings coat was buttoned about him
so tight that he fell at the foot of
The throne and the Sparrow flew
away, screaming.

He found one of the Kings hats
and one of the Kings coats and put
them on, then he sat on the throne
awaiting
again to find Chief Porky, and while
he was gone this is what happened:
The larger of the Fox children had
overheard a conversation between
two forest Sparrows. One of them
said he was going to see the King
and ask for protection during the
visit of North Wind. So the young
Fox decided to call on the King also.
The Fox arrived first and after he
looked about he found the King had
gone.
81 know what | shall do" said he
to himself. 81 will put on the Kings
hat and the Kings coat and when
that sparrow comes l will pretend to
be the King"
He found one of the Kings hats
and one of the Kings coats and put
them on, then he sat on the throne
awaiting the coming of the Sparrow.
In his heart he desired to kill the
Sparrow, and thought this would be
a good way to catch him. By and
by the Sparrow came chirping
through the trees and few down to
the foot of the throne. Young Fox
