WHERE DO THEY GET IT?

The "committee of forty-eight, !" which is preparing to launch a new political party on platform that is a cross between single tax and social ism, announces that it represents" the great masses of the American people.
 Where do these committeeman get their commissions to represent the great masses of the American people, or to represent anybody, as a matter of fact, other than themselves? Why chose them as representatives of pub lie sentiment? Ordinary political par ties have their machinery for the eIec- tion of representatives; they have pri- maries and conventions of the people at which such representative are chosen.
 But the committee of forty-eight, like many other organizations pro- fessing to represent the great body of the people, is entirely a self-onstituted and self-designated affair. It may with propriety claim to represent cer- tain theories or fads in politics, but it has no warrant for the assertion that it represents more than an imag- mary constituency. But there isr of sourse, distinguished authority for getting ones authority to represent the people without their consent from voices in the air and other sources no more tangible.
 But why not let a few of the people, at least, in on some of these move Ments to represent and emancipate sAern? Why not, ill these matters, have a little of that "self-determina- tieR of peoples" so much talked about and so little practiced by some folks whe think they are divinely ordained to swagger around as old Vox Populi?

LET US PRAY

The vast majority of the people of the earth believe in the existence of B Supreme Being, a God to whom 70 appeal in time of need. We do not all worship in the same way nor pray in the same way. Our conceptions of the Diety may vary, but most of us believe in the efficacy of prayer.
 The entire world has gone aWry. The established order of things has been upset. There is a political, so- ciaI. economic and religious unrest
 Many innovations are seriously pro- posed which would never have been though of fiva years ago, Be cause Cf the great loss of life among the men who went to war it has been pro- posed that we return to the practice of pOlygamy. It has been proposed that all children, whether born with in or outside of wedlock, shall be held to be legitimate. It has been pro- posed that the mother, instead of the father be recognized as the head of the family. National prohibition of intoxicants has been adopted in this country and is seriously proposed in others Women have been granted suffrage in many states and their national enfranchisement is but 6 question of time, apparently. Women have engaged in occupations hereto fore considered unsuitable for them Great nations have been torn asunder and new. ones have sprung into exist ence. The President of the United States has seriously proposed the subordination of the government to a supergovernment and many people kaye rushed to his support, whereas such 8 proposition a score of years ago would have brought speedy i'm peachment. It is proposed that WE suspend the operation of our econom ie laws for the alleged purposes o1 aiding those more unfortunate than ourselves, although the result would be disastrous to the people of this nation. We are living recklossly and spending our money prodigal1y, and there is a seeming of prosperity, yet the truth is that there is no req prosperity, but rather ferveris1
 
 unrest, and it is not confined to the

ignorant and uneducated. We are liv- ing over a smouldering volcano which may at any time erupt and bring with it widespread disaster This country is not on a sound financial and economic basis-there must and will be change. Readjustment must come. We must get back to first principles.
 There is danger lurking all about US. Now is the time, not for falter- ing and indecision, but for wise and firm action on the part of our law makers. Now is the time to bear in mind the old axiom, "Hew to the Ene, let the chips fall where they l. ay." Now is not the time for lawmakers to stop and try to find out what eff feet their action will have upon the voters, upon their own chances for reelection. The best way is the courageous way. The people can be depended upon to stand by those who do the right thing. It took courage to do as Governor Coolidge did in the matter of the Boston policemen's strike, but the people stood by him and the right was vindicated.
 As never before, this is the time for sincerity, for patriotism, for un- selfishness, for the exercise of for bearance and wisdom We need wis dom to solve the weighty problems which confront us. Principles have not changed, although there are some who seem to think they have. The people have changed and they must change back if disaster is not to overtake us. Truth is mighty and will prevail" and we must align our selves on the side of truth and right l We must pray for guidance.
 In all sincerity and reverence we l cay, "Let us pray"

BUT HOW ABOUT NOW?

You do not have to scratch your head and engage in long, deep thought to remember the enthusiasm that you and all the rest of us exhibited over the American soldier when the war was on; how you threw up your hat and shouted yourself hoarse as the brown ranks marched along with the banner of the Union floating proudly at the head of the column; how you stood up every time the tar-Spangled Banner was played or sung; how you barred your head when the color guard went by; how you stopped your auto mobile wherever you might be in order to see that the man in uniform might ride insead of walk; how you and your families went to the railroad sta tions laden with food for the strange soldiers that might t~>. be passing through; how you shed tears of pride when your own boys went marching away to the ports of embarkation while the bugles played, the bands blared forth their patriotic tunes and the drums rolled their soul-stirring marches.
 That was all very fine and all very commendable, wasn't it? And every body was exalted, lifted far out of him. self and lived upon a plane of high thought and lofty idealism.
 Then nothing was too good, nothing even was good enough to offer these brave young men who were giving up their positions in life, their families and friends and offering in sacrifice their very bodies upon the altar of patriotism and of humanity. O, we were greatly moved, those days, and we meant it, too.
 But how about now?

The tutelage of 8 national Demo cratic administration is bearing fruit in the Philippines. The Democratic party of the islands has declared for rebellion, if need be, to bring about the separation of the Philippines from the United States.

It has been suggested by New York Democratic women leaders that the women delegates to the San Francisco convention go dressed in gingham and calico. This is doubtless intended to suggest that these once humble ma- teria1s, after seven years of Demo cratic reduction of the high cost of living, are as high in price as silk and satin used to be in the good old Re- publican days.

State Candidates
To Pay Expenses
Beaufort County Chairman Re-
fuses To Use One Cent of
County Money For Second
. Primary

Columbia, Sept. 13.-George w.
Beckett, chairman Of the Beaufort
county Democratic executive commit
tee stated to this correspondence over
LONG distance phone Monday that rep
resentatives of the candidates for state
office had come to Beaufort Sunday to
see him and had arranged TO finance
the second primary of Tuesday. He
stated that not a cent OF the money in
the treasury of the Beaufort county
committee would be used for the elec-
tion expenses.
There are no second races for coun-
ty offices in Beaufort and the chair
man takes the position that the can
didates for state offices and the SEN
ate should, pay, the bills Of the Tues
day run over. ~ Those. who dance
should pay the fiddlers'' he states.
Mr.. Beckett stated also that he will
come before the state Democratic ex-
ecutive committee at it's next meet
ing which will be next week for the
purpose OF declaring the result Of
Tuesdays primary and ask for some
action that will change the situation
whereby the expense of voting for
state candidates falls on the county
candidates and the county primary
machinery.

Beaufort Primary
" Dispute
Chairman Beckett Says County
Candidates Should Not Have
to Pay For State Officers

Columbia, Sept. ,l2.-Taking the po-
sltion that 1t is unfair for money coll
lected from county candidates as as
sessment fees to be used in conducting
q primary for state officers and con-
tending that this is an evil that should
be abolished, George w. Beckett, coun-
ty chairman Of Beaufort county, in a
telegram to Fl. n. Edmunds, secretary
of the state Democratic executive COM
mittee today. says that he is establish
ing precedent and Judging from his
message may stick to his announced
position Of holding no primary in
Beaufort Tuesday.
At the same time Mr.. Beckett COM
municates a message from citizen
committee Of Beaufort which has VOL
unteered to pay the costs of the pri-
mary, above the amount Mr.. Beckett
has on hand. Mr.. Beckett contends
that what money he has should go
back to the county candidates and
should not be used for defraying ex-
penseS for the state officers.
He claims that the county officer
aspirants have been paying for their
state primaries long enough and
wants to sec the big fellows" pay for
them hereafter. Although the tele-
gram from Mr.. Beckett does not state
specifically whether or not he will al.
low the citizens committee to hold
the primary, the belief there is that
the election will be held Tuesday.
Secretary Edmunds said tonight that
he believed the primary would he run
off despite the apparent hitch Of Mr..
Beckett. Mr.. Edmunds points out that
If every county chairman in the state
were 10 make the same demand on the
state committee as Mr.. Beckett it
would take nearly $4,000 for this pri-
mary election.
In closing, Mr.. Beckett claims that
NJ. j. Thomas, apparently representing
the citizens committee, does not an
derstand the situation and has placed
him and Beaufort Democracy i'm
false position.
