which would be merely applying prin-
as they might arise.
Suppose President Wilson wins on
his point that the German colonies
ought to be managed by the League
of Nations. Tha one point means
not only the creation of a League but
it means that the functions of the
League would be legislative. There
might be one country authorized to
represent the League in a particular
case, and there might be a general
executive body acting for the League
between it's sessions, but there would
certainly have to be representatives
from the various countries who would
meet from time to time and settle the
developing aspects of such big ques-
tions as the control Of colonies would
involve.
II hope that after this point is won
about the control of the German
colonies. other steps similar in prin-
ciple will be taken, such as the inter-
naturalization of harbors and rivers
which are essential to the economic
life of several countries at once This
will be applying to new problems the
method that has worked so well in
the case of the Danube and the
scheldt. If the Rhine and the Vistula,
for eaxmple, should be interna tional-
lied the League of Nations would have
added to it's functions the supervision

probably also have to address meet

der to stimulate the public to take an
active interest as many of the sena-
tors will have their views determined
by what they hear from their con-
stituents.
Il have pretty good sources of in
formation from Paris, and [ know
that a month ago there was much dis
couragement among our representa-
tives because of the lack of support
in this country for the presidents eff
forts. That situation has improved in
a month, but it is still true that the
president is getting much more en-
thusiastic support from the populace
in other countries than he is from his
own public. The reason for this is
surely that the European peoples have
been through such an agony that they
are turning with appealing hope to
that statesman who has seem ed to put
most faith in an entirely new way of
taking life, that is to say, a way en-
tirely new to diplomats. The Euro
pean populace trusts Wilson as they
do because he has for more than four
years been struggling to get ethical
and cooperative principles to the
front, to make them do in the future
the work that distrust and hostility
and excessive nationalism have done
SO badly in the past. Thus the United
States is leading n the attempt to ap-
ply to the whole world those princi-
pies of cooperation that Washington
and q few other leaders induced 3
suspicious colonies to undertake over
a hundred years ago. 1t took several
discouraging years of effort to get the
colonies to give up their habits of hos
tility and exaggerated individuality,
and we have only a few weeks to win
a similar point for the relations be-
tween nations. The victory we are
trying for is a victory for American
principles in their broadcast aspect.
These principles are illustrated not
only by what we accomplished after
the War of Independence, but by an
enlightened conception Of the Monroe
Doctrine. The Monroe Doctrine
meant that the United States was in
terested in preventing warlike compll-
cations from getting started on this
continent Our participation in the
deliberations Of Paris means that we
are now interested in preventing wal
like Implications from getting start

To see the tinge of healthy bloom

clearer and clearer, to wake up with
out headache, backache, coated
tongue or a nasty breath. in fact to
feel your best, day in and day out,
just try inside bathing every morning

Before breakfast each day, drink a

from the stomach, liver, kidneys and
bowels the previous days indigestible
waste, sour bile and toxins; thus
cleansing, sweetening and purifying
the entire alimentary canal before
putting more food into the stomach.
The action of hot water and lime
some phosphate on an empty stomach
is wonderfully inyaa~~-ing. It cleans
out all the sour lamentations, gases
and acidity and gives one a splendid
appetite for breakfast.
A quarter pound of limestone phos-
phate will cost very little at the drug
store but is sufficient to demonstrate
that just as soap and hot water
cleanses, sweetens and freshens the
skin, so hot water and limestone

League of Nations possess legislative

some development at Paris shows
that it is impossible to think out any
plan which will be static. From the
very beginning the more radically
minded adherents of the League idea
have been afraid that this League
would be a mere protection of the
status quo in various countries. They
Thave been afraid that this League

ment on principle was strong, but the
argument from experience in the last
two or three weeks is stronger still.
President Wilson has clarified the
situation by saying that in his study

REPUBLICANS ARE
Wins GREAT HONORS
Norman Hapgood Thinks Party Is
Helping League Of Nations

New York, Feb. 5.-In an address
today at the opening of the Atlantic
Congress for a League of Nations.
Norman Hapgood, President of the
League of Free Nations Association,
paid "a tribute to Elk President Taft
and other Republican leaders who,
he said, were helping to protect the
country from having the questions
connected with the League of Nations
turned into party politics. "A member
of the British Parliament" he said,
has given money to found a chair
<of International relations in one of
the British Universities to be named
after President Wilson. I think it
would be an excellent plan for some
rich American to establish a chair of
international relations in an American
University and name 1t after Mr..
Taft"
Most of Mr.. Hapgoods speech was

some considerab BILE time in the light
of experience.
This legislative need has been the
last for the general public to fix the
mind upon. The Hague had made it
more or less familiar with the judicial
function, but the Hague was a court
with nothing to enforce it's decrees
Next came a realization, therefore, of
the need of putting some kind of
force behind the court. Every country
in its own affairs, finds the need not
only of courts and executives with
power but of legislatures to relate
this machinery to the public; to give
to the courts the enactments which
they are to apply in cases of contro-
versy. country which has no legis-
lature is not a free country, and a
League Of Nations which had no
legislative functions would not be
League of Free Nations"
Mr.. Hapgood also spoke about the
States senate.
Mr.. Wilson," he said, will I'M
doubtedly find it necessary to remain
in this country long enough not only
to dispose of those general matters re-
curing his attention in Washington
but also to make clear to the senate
many things that most of the mem
bers do not understand. 1t is going
to be difficult to get two-thirds of that
body to take a great new step in ad-
vance. Some of the reactionary DEM
ocrats will refuse to follow the presi-
dent, and it will be necessary to get
a large percentage Of the more open
minded republicans in order to give
the two thirds majority required be-
fore the League of Nations can be-
come effective as far as this country
is concerned, I think Mr.. Wilson will

COTTON FARMERS MEET
iien Came Out In Rain and Mud tG'
Hear of Plans for Organization

: A meeting of the county cotton as
Sociation was held at the court house
here Tuesday with about seventy
FIVE representative farmers present
notwithstanding the inclement wealth
err Rain set in early during the
morning and fell throughout the day.
Many of the farmers plses II
came long distances and caused Nj.
Mcleod, State organizer, to CON-
mend the county for having such a
| fine citizenship, men who would 90 r.e
out to a meeting on such wet "a ~
day. These men apparently came
from all sections of the county, there
being few present from Hingstfec:
The meeting was called to order
by the chairman Of the ,ounty aSso-
citation, Mr.. H. E. Montgomery, who
introduced the speakers. Mr.. T. /.
Guion of Lugoff and Mr.. B. +. Nc
Leod of Charleston.
Mr.. Guion, who is one Of the
states most extensive farmers, was
the first speaker and urged his fci-
low farmers to get together in clos
or organization and cooperation,
pointing out the necessity of such
steps in order to keep cotton at a
marketable value commensurate with
the cost of production. He did not ad-
vocate or believe in eXorbitant prices
but believed the producer was enti-
tied to a fair, or living price where
by he could have a little surplus or
profit for the education Of his chill
dren and the comforts of home. The
farmer had not made a dollar out OF
cotton in the past sixty years, he
said, those who had made money
made it on labor. Cotton had been
cheap but labor had been cheaper.
But cheap labor is thing of the
past and fifteen cent cotton could no
longer be produced. If necessary he
would be willing to take thirty cents
for his cotton, but not while the mills
are reaping such enormous profits on
every pound of the staple that is
spun into yarn or woven into cloth.
Mr.. Mcleod talked chiefly on orr
ganization, methods of financing,
membership, fees, etc., which SEEM
ed to be fairly we'll understood by
those present, the county having
U0cu pfSNiOuSiy OiSonhhCu eiotio
similar lines in the interest Of the
holding movement that swept over
the cotton belt early in the spring.
Tuesdays meeting was mainly in
the interest of the big membership
drive that will take place on August
26, and continue through three days.
In this drive it is estimated that a
number equal to so per cent of the
county's voting population will be-
come registrants for membership in
the association and will include
farmers, merchant, bankers, profess
sional men and practically all other
white male citizens.
The membership fee will be for
the first year and half, 25 cents the
bale to the farmer. 25 cents per
$1,000 to merchants and bankers,
$500 to professional men. Member
ship will be for three years and for
the second and third year the fee
will be 10 cents on the bale to
farmers.
There will be another important
meeting held here on Tuesday
August 10.
