Crystal Lake, swimlnin" resort
just below the city limits, cla;r,s its
first victim yesterday when 7. Lc anie
Player, age 21, sank beneath the sur
fa.e 0. Tie waters and ta.icd t. Use.
The drowning was witnessed by
about 500 men and women who gath
cred at the resort.
Young Player waded into the lake
shortly after o'clock yesterday aft
ernoon and later started to swim
across the body of water. Near his
side were J. P. Spires, member Of the
police department, and James Nc
Manus. The young. man was seen to
suddenly sink beneath the surface
and when Spires and McManus made
a deep dive located the body at the
bottom. The two men pulled the
body to the surface and others as
sisted in bringing the remains to the
bank.
Eevery effort was made to resusci-
tate the young life, while fast rum
ming motor car rushed to the Baptist
hospital for a pulmotor. DR.. Gibbes
and DR.. Owens hurried to the scene
and rendered all possible aid. Every
known agency at hand failed to re-
vive the man and more than two
hours elapsed before the workers
gave up hope.
An examination by the physicians
indicated that Player was attacked
with acute Indigestion while making
the attempt to cross the lake and
died without a struggle. The lake
was about IL feet deep at the point
where the drowning occurred.
T. L. Player was native of New
berry and recently came to Columbia,
where he secured a position as extra
conductor with the street railway
company. He was a brother of Lu-
cius Player, member of the Newberry
police force. Young Player was pop
ular among his fc.c.'::s and associates
and they are gr;eve... over his tragic
death. During his say in Columbia
he boarded on Fifth Street, Olympia.
Coroner Scott, Magistrate Griffith
and Constable Palmer visited the
scene of the drowning and questioned
eye witnesses. The inquest will be
held tonight at 500 o'clock at Nc
Cormick's.
The drowning of Player is the first
to occur around Columbia this sea-
son. Player was first class swim
mer and his death will probably be
attiit uted to an attack of Illness.

although our own producers of potash
have been doing such wonderful work
in building up a domestic supply OF
this great land invigorator,, that 1t
seemed to most of US they should be
rewarded by protection from Euro
pean competition OF any sort.
The war trade board now announces
that France will be unable to ship
potash from her Alsatian mines to us
for the next few months as she her
self needs practically the entire supply
for agricultural purposes, so the board
sees no possibility of a supply from
that source until June, 1919, at least,
therefore, it will be necessary that
the United States rely entirely upon
it's domestic potash production tor the
coming spring season"
Well, we have struggled along so
far without the European supply, even
if at considerable disadvantage. In
the meantime our own producers are
on the verge of being able to meet
the domestic demand at fairly reason
able prices. They should be encour-
aged in their endeavor by the passage,
at the earliest practicable moment, OF
protective law for their product.
Potash is a national necessity in which
we should be nationally independent.
LOST MORALE.
There was time, when the esprit
de corps of the postal service was at
a high standard, when postal en-
ployees took great pride in being able
to get letter to its destination even
though the writer was careless or ig-
norant in writing the address on the
envelope. Under the present de-
moralized condition of the service
difficulty in deciphering an address is
solved by sending the letter back to
the writer or to the dead letter office
THINK FOR YOURSELF.
If readers of Democratic papers
would ponder upon the facts they read
and give less heed to the partisan
opinions of the Democratic editors,
we would make more satisfactory pro-
gress in solving our economic prob
lems Here, for instance, is an editor
who publishes the fact, known to
many but overlooked by some, that
"the processes of red tape, which
bungle many things, got in their dead
ly work" in the payment of soldiers
wages and soldiers allotments. That
is the plain, unvarnished fact, yet the
editor supports the administration in
it's effort to entangle our railroads, our
telephones, cur telegraphs, and ocean
cables, in the meshes Of red tape. And
many Democrats who deem it their
duty to stand by the President
even in violation of their own con-
victions, arc willing to help increase
the red tape that will later get in its
deadly work to the destruction of eff
cheney in many a public service insti-
tuition.

Washington, Feb. ll.-Instead of

in the position of defendant in the
Michigan election investigation it be-
gins to look as if Mr.. Ford him self
would occupy that role. Without
waiting for the inquiry by the senate
committee to start, Mr.. Newberry has
formulated specific charges against
the conduct of the campaign in behalf
of Ford. which is described as "the
most elaborate, pretentious, and ex-

The cost of printing one pamphlet
alone is placed at $4,000, and the
Postage in mailing it to the voters of
the state at from $4,000 to $4,000
It is charged that in some precincts
Ford workers insisted on voting men
who were not registered or whose
citizenship was in doubt. Postmasters
and mail carriers, it is alleged. were
impressed into the work for the cleo
ton of Ford, and every agency in the
state for the sale of Ford automobiles
was used as headquarters for its
chief. Ford workers swarmed about
almost every voting booth, particu-
