ENTERTAINMENT FRIDAY .
AT MIDWAY SCHOOL

There will be an entertainment at
the Midway school house on Friday
evening of this week at which time
ice cream and other refreshments will
be served by the ladies for the bene-
fit of the school.
This is really the handsomest rural
school building in the county, we
mean by that the best in the rural
districts. The building is nearing
completion and will cost around
$4,000 and has a fine auditorium
and large and airy class rooms and
is credit to the work and sacrifice
of the people of the community.
The ladies of the community are
behind the movement for better
schools in that section of the county
and you should go out to this the
first entertainment at the new school
house and enjoy yourself and at the
same time give encouragement to the
ladies and the men too because they
are aroused and interested.

COLBY CALLS HAND
OF TENNESSEANS
SAYS STATE DEPARTMENT NOT
ELECTIONEERING.
Action Bv Secretary Would Have, In
fluenced Issue in Two
States.

Washington, Sept. 23.-Secretary
Colby, in a statement issued tonight,
accused the Tennessee Anti-Suffrage
delegation which recently called on
him of attempting to obtain oflclal
statements declaring the validity OF
Tennessee's ratification of the woman
suffrage amendment in doubt because
of the political effect such state
ment might have in Connecticut and
Maryland.
':It was obviously an improper,
thing for me to do," said Mr.. Coloys
statement, "and amounted to the use
of the state department for anti-suf-
frage electioneering."
The secretary's statement was IS
sued as denial to an article IN
New York newspaper declaring that
the delegation had said that Mr..
Colby scored the ratification of the
suffrage amendment, declaring its
success was due to "weaklings on
! capitol hill" Asserting this was
utterly untrue" Mr.. Colby added
that the Tennessee delegation ap-
parently sought to impute to him
"things which l have never thought,
much less said"
"They wished me-" declared the
secretary's statement, ''to publish
some statement in which an opinion
was expressed or implied that the ac-.
ton of the state Of Tennessee was
inconclusive and that grave doubt
existed as to the fnality and legal eff
| feet of it's vote on the constitution
amendment. On questioning them i
discovered that their theory was that
it would have political effect IN
Connecticut and Maryland and might
cause either one of those states to
vote differently on the subject OF rat
ihcation if they but realized that the
GcClOn III 1SuuGSSee was oNSASLe@oop
ed by doubt as to it's true effect.
l"In other words, they wished to
impress upon Connecticut that its ac7a
ton was not perfunctory and nere-
ly expressive of friendly sentiment
to equal suffrage but in view of the
uncertainties which they wished to,
be given official emphasis with re-
gard to Tennessee's action, that it.
/ might be decisive as to the ratifica-
ticn.
"The Tennessee legislators went so
far as to submit to me statement
which met their specifications, with
the request that l should issue it. 1t
was obviously an improper thing for
me to do and amounted to the use OF
the state department for anti-suf-
frage electioneering. It required but
little reflection for me to perceive
this and quite naturally l decided
against the issuance of any such
statement.

WOLFE LAYS GHOST
OF JURY DUTY
TWELVE MEN" PRESCRIBED BY
CONSTITUTION, SAYS OFFICIAL.
Registered Women May Rest Easy
on Subject-Was Bugaboo to
Many.

The State, 26th.
No petit jury. duty for women, reg
istered or not registered is the gist OF
an opinion rendered yesterday by S.
M. Wolfe, attorney general OF South
Carolina.
With the utterance of this opinion,
the attorney general lays ghost that
has frequently been requisitioned to
dog the footsteps of women who were
registered. The bogey of ''jury duty"
has probably frightened some Of the
former timid sex to such an extent
that they have refrained from plac-
ing their names upon the books, and
very likely many a husband has earn
estly entertained his wife to remain
away from the registration books
through fear of her being drawn up
ON a petit jury. This fear is now
.allayed, and women who have regis
tered may rest content that they will
not be called upon, Tor while az
least, to do jury duty.
The attorney generals opinion was
given in response to an inquiry made
by J. L. Perrin, clerk Of court and
member of the jury commissioners OF
Abbeville county.
The letter of the attorney general
to Mr.. Perrin is as follows:
"Dear Sir:
:, "Replying to your inquiry of yes
terday as to whether or not women
are eligible to jury duty, advise
that Section %, Article Y of the con-
stitution prescribed that the petit
jury of the circuit courts shall con-
sist of IL men. The 10th amendment
to the federal constitution does not
alter this requirement"

ROOSEVELT BARES
REPUBLICAN PLOT
SAYS WILL HAYS FORCED
LODGE TO OPPOSE LEAGUE.
Hoped by Destroying League te
Minimize Popularity of
Wilson.

Ogdensburg, N. Y, Sept. 25.-Wlll
H. Hays, chairman of the Republican
national committee, forced Lodge,
Harding and other Republican sena-
tors to turn against the league of ma
tions in order to injure the chances
of Democratic success in November"
Franklin D. Roosevelt, Democratic
vice presidential candidate, asserted
here today.
"The change of mind" of the Re-
publican party, Mr.. Roosevelt said,
took place during President Wilson's
second absence in France. 1t was at
this time, Mr.. Roosevelt charged, that
Mr.. Hays summoned senate leaders
of the Republican party to "secret
conference" in Washington, where a
program of opposition to the league
of nations con any terms" was map
ped out.
"This was the turning point of the
whole Republican policy" the vice
presidential candidate said. "Presi-
dent Wilson returned to Europe and
it became obvious that he would be
able to incorporate the changes sug-
gested by Senator Lodge and others,
including that of definite recognition
of the Monroe doctrine. The presi-
dent was obtaining in Paris league
of nations satisfactory not only to
the senate but to the whole Ameri-
can people"
''This is the unwritten history OF
what really happened: Will H. Hays
hurried to Washington and called
Senators Lodge, Borah, Brandegee
and others into secret conference.
He pointed out to them that sue
cessful outcome of the presidents ef-
forts to restore peace and to gain the
greatest object of the war, a perma-
nent peace through the league of
nations would spell inevitable Repub-
lcan defeat in the coming preslden-
tial election then about a year and a
half away.
| ssHe pointed out that President
Wilson would be acclaimed through
out the world, as he was being ac-
claimed in the United States, as the
man who had at last been able to ac-
con1plish the worlds ideal of putting
an end to wars.
"Will Hays delivered in effect an
ultimatum to the Republican sena-
; tors that they must choose between
surrender of power to the Demo
| cratic party and a deliberate and
carefully planned campaign to throw
over the treaty of peace and to dis
credit the president of the United
States in order to secure a political
victory.
"The choice was made. Partisan
advantage was placed first, and the
| restoration of peace to civilization
was thrown deliberately into the dis
card. This is recognized no longer
here but throughout the world"
Mr.. Roosevelt said he expected this
disclosure to arouse "howl of pro-
test from Republicans in the senate
who were responsible for what l con-
slider crime against their own coun-
try and against the peoples of other
nations"
! "They will seek to befog the is
sue,'' he added, "but the essential
; fact remains that Will Hays was en-
ployed for the purpose of electing a
Republican president-the methods
mattered not"

Alexandra Millerand has long been
one of the most foremost figures In
the political life cf France, his entry
into parliament dating back toI1SS5,
ard his cabinet experience to 1889.
when he became a member Of the
Waldeck Rousseau cabinet. His early
affiliations were with the radical So
cialists, and he always has been keen
ly interested in labor questions and
has fathered numerous measures for
the betterment Of the working world,
notably the old age pension act,
which became operative in 1905.
It was NJ. Millerand's services to
his country during the great war,
however, as minister Of war IN the
Viviani cabinet, and his notable con-
duct Of Frances policy as successor
of Clemenceau in the premiership
after "The Tigers retirement last
January, that raised him into pre-
eminent eligibility for the presl-
dency, compelled his reluctant con-
sent to quit the premiership and
stand as candidate to succeed
President Deschanel.
: NJ. .Millerand was born in Paris
February 10, 1859, and was educated
for the bar.
