Columbia, S. C.,--The people of
South Carolina who have been follow
ing the work of the San Francisco
Convention will be interested in the
Important part which Senator E. D.
Smith played in the deliberations.
The work of Senator Smith is best
described in the following article from
the Florence Daily Times
Friends of Senator Ellison D. Smith
in Florence county are beginning to
interest themselves in his behalf as a
candidate for reelection to the United
States Senate, not that they are fear
full Of the Senator's failing to carry
the county by a large majority, as
usual, but because of the fact that
that they are anxious to recognize the
Senator's great work in the Senate by
giving him a much larger majorit.'
than ever before.
Senator Smith has been at San
Francisco attending the National
Democratic convention. He will re-
turn to his home at Lynchburg to-
morrow and is expected in Florence
for conference with his friends later
in the week. Senator Smith will be
late entering the campaign, his op-
ponents having already covered a
large part of the State.
In his letter to the people Of the
State which was read at the opening
meeting Of the campaign he recount
ed his achievements in the Senate and
stated. that he felt it his duty to at
tend the convention and as member
of the platform committee do what
he could for his State and the South.
1t happened that he accomplished
much, the port facilities plank in the
platform, for which he is responsible
being Of deep significance to this sec
tion. This, however, was not the only
item in which his influence was felt.
Senator Smith happily has the knack
Of getting things done and his acti-
vities at the convention bore fruit just
as they have done in the Senate.
The following rather remarkable
tribute to Senator Smith is taken from
the Raleigh News and Observer, the
paper owned by Josephus Daniels,
Secretary of the Navy, and will be of
interest as pointing out the esteem in
which Senator Smith is held in the
tar heel State.

"South Carolina has had sensation

Does this mean that Senator Harding,

REPUDIATES ALL IDEALS.

Seantor Hardipg's program is nothing
less than a reputation of our protested
ideals of International cooperation, for it
repudiates the only method of giving
them early ans effective application. His
treatment of tc outstanding issue of the
campaign is file He is not faithful even
to that dominant group of the Senate"
of which he was a part and which be
proudly asserts he understands. He has
not word for the Lodge reservations
which were fought over SO bitterly and
which were to bring peace with honor and
safety. The Treaty which President Will
son was to blame for not permitting to he
ratified with the reservations adopted
with the consent of the dominant group of
the Senate has become treaty which the
Republicans will not permit to be ratified
under any circumstances. Senator Hard
ing's declaration will set people to asking
whether the dominant group of the Senate
intended all along to kill the Treaty. Ii
they did, it would have been more honest
TO say so at the time.
Senator HaIding's statement upon the
central issue of the campaign ought to
dispel Senator Johnson's last lingeril 6
doubt and give Senator Borah a fresh
infusion of Republican loyalty. What IN
his heart ex-PTesldent Taft must think OF
it, it would be unkind to inquire. BY 1T the
Senator will chill the spirit Of the great
body of Independent voters who were
awaiting his announcement and cause
them to look to the acceptance speech OF
Governor Cox to whom Mr.. Harding has
