Candy Kitchen Doors Locked.

With the disappearance of the
proprietor, Harry Carros, the
doors of the Fort Mill Candy
Kitchen were locked Wednesday
afternoon under order of the
sheriff. There are said to be a
number of creditors of the busi-

Democrats at Work.

The Democrats in the senate
and house at Washington are
making great record, says The
Commoner. They have reduced
the army against the protest of
Secretary of War Weeks; they
have reduced the navy appropri-
alton against the protest of Sec
retary of the Navy DENLY and
they have aided in the passage of
the Borah resolution requesting
the president to call conference
of the leading nations to start
disarmament. That is d mighty
good start. Of course, they could
have done nothing without the
aid of insurgent Republicans but
the Democrats furnished the lar
gest number of votes. Now for
the amendment of the federal re-
serve act AMI the reduction of
taxes. The reactionaries want to
relieve the big taxpayers first ;
the Democrats insist upon pro-
tecting the small taXpayers-and
the Democrats will win.

1t Looks Like Hard Winter for Chorus Girls;

A canvass Of producers indicates
there will be fewer musical reviews,
fewer spectacles and more plays with
small casts this season. This goes

Satire PrcdOminates.
The satirical element is predomi-

seasons the satire has met with little

one bedroom farce this season. 1t

In the first place, there are fewer

What Morris meant was that pro-
