.L|NEV|LLE PROUD
 OF STOCK JUDGE
Charles Bishop Wins First Place Among Boys in
 Judging Dairy Cattle

Lineville, November 29.-(Special.) ) Some time ago it was. announced that a stock judging team from the voca- tional agricultural class of the Line vile High school would be sent to Birmingham to represent the school in a Judging contest with 20 other schools in the state. The best team was to get free trip to the Inter national Live Stock show at Chicago in December. The team from the Wetumpka High school won this trip. being the best all round team on the three classes of live stock, dairy cat tie, beef cattle and hogs. The team from Lineville won first place in dairy eattle. and one of the Line vile boys, Charles Bishop, won first place among all the boys in Judging dairy cattle.
 When the team was selected to represent the entire state it was again that a Clay county boy, Charles Bishop, was second highest individ- ual in the state on all the three classes of live stock mentioned. He, together with the first and third boy. spent two days at Auburn in spe- cial training, preparatory to going to Macon. Ga, to represent Alabama in the southern contest.
 In this contest Texas won first place and Alabama won fifth place, a very creditable position If all the Alabama boys had made record equal to the one made by the Clay county boy, Charles Bishop, and the entire Lineville team. Alabama would have easily won second place. It was Charles Bishop axain who not only won first place in Alabama, but won first place in the entire south in judging dairy cattle. and further add ed to his laurels by winning first place in judging Duroc-Jersey hogs.
 The Lineville High school is indeed proud of the enviable record made by the entire team, and especially ot Charles Bishop. in being so fortunate as to be selected a second man In the state. and to make for himself the great record that he now has to his credit.
 The experience was of invaluable benefit to all the boys participating. and the people of rLineville are hop ing that next year the Linevilie team will win the trip to the International Live Stock show in Chicago.

Laughing at Hard Times.

The good people in the boil weevil
part of the state are not sulking.
They feel blue, of course, but they
manage to get a laugh out of life.
One merchant told me that he had
sold nothing this year but coffin
and he hadn't got his pay for that.
Another relates that he had gone
to Savannah to sell the hide of a big
steer, an unusually large animal. In
cidentally he carried in his hand the
pelt of coon. He got more for the
coon skin than he did for the OK
hide. Oh, yes, the farmer must take
his losses like man, but that is one
thing that he can't understand, why
a coon skin is more valuable than an
OK hide, why an OK hide has no value
and yet shoes are not being given
away-William Banks in The State.

NOT FRIGHTENED?

It is often enlightening as we'll as
amusing to occasionally look over the
flies Of an old newspaper, where cur
rent history is writ from day to day
and week to week. In making a de-
sultory excursion into the riches of
the files Of the old Dispatch we came
across the following editorial para
graph in the issue of January 27,
1904: -.
The Mexican boil weevil may as
well pack up for return to his
native haunts. The war against
him has begun and the sinews have
been provided by Congress, round
quarter Of million dollars having
been appropriated by the house Of
representative for the expenses of
the campaign.
In this good year of 1921. just II
years since the publication of the
above, we find that the boil weevil
was a dreadful adversary not to
be frightened by the mounting of such
"barbed steeds" as a round quarter
Of a million" though II years ago this
was no inconsiderable sum, and in
stead of packing for the return trip,
he has steadily advanced, until to-
day, like Sherman, he has marched
to the sea-" devastating. all before
him, and leaving ruin and trouble
behind him.

GREEK LETTER "FRATS."

The esteemed Columbia State, out
OF the abundance Of its wisdom,
shows clearly to the unsophisticated
students Of the States university Eve
mean the institution owned and sup
ported by the State, goyernnaent) how
easy it will be for them to evade> the
law Of the land and maintain the or
ganiaztion Of Greek letter fraternf-
ties under other names that may or
may not smell better to the law
makers. And in 50 doing The State
has performed real disservice to the
university and the students them
selves. Certainly; it is not easy to
prevent boys or men from believing
Gas The State would seem to wish
them to- that divine providence has
fashioned them from clay Of little
different kind from the common run,
because there will lalways be fools
who fail to heed the march Of time
and thought, but it may be difficult
to prevent the taxpayers from refus-
ing to support an institution which
encourages such spirit. This newspa-
per is no enemy Of the University. On
the contrary, it, is solicitous for its
maintenance and improvement. If it
could have it's way it would have the
university expand and progress, in
creasing it's field of usefulness until
it could provide for every boy in the
State. But we are equally solicitous
that the institution be kept as free as
humanity possible from the taint of
cod fish aristocracy, which for so
long hampered it and prevented it
from fulfilling it's true mission.
In the humble judgment of The
Dispatch-News the general assembly
was most eminently correct in barring
the snob incubators from the public
institutions of learning. There is no
truer friend Of the university in the
State than senator George X. Laney
OF Chesterfield, himself product,
and creditable one, Of the Univer-
sity, and it was owing to his master
full plea that the present law remains
In force today. The true friends of
the university will neither urge the
repeal Of the law nor encourage it's
evasion by the student body. e

AS TO G. o. P.
cnoc;,1 ta The News.

Columbia, May 1o.-Considerable
speculation has been INDUCED in
around the capital the past week as
to what course the national admin
istration will take towards affairs in
south Carolina. There has been con-
siderable talk of the formation of a
brand new Republican party in South
Carolina. with the backing of the ad-
ministration. Mr.. G.. G. Campbell,
an Ohioan by birth and a Republican,
who has been living in Columbia for
some years, and who has been engag-
ed in the lumber business, recently re-
turned from Washington with the
announcement. that such party was
in process Of forming and that 1000
we'll known white business men had
signifed their intention of aligning
| themselves with Republican organi-
zation which would eliminate the
negro entirely from politics. A mys-
| terious gentleman of high business
standing, never known in politics be-
fore, according to Mr.. Campbell
would be the chief factotum of the
| new party and dispense the pie which
| will be handed out by the Harding
administration.
There was another story earlier
that John l.. McLaurin of Benefits
vile, former United States senator,
who at one time had strong Republi-
can tendencies, under the gentle
| name of sCommercial Democracy
would act as referee and name the
officeholders for South Carolina.
Politicians, however, take very
little stock in either Of these stories
Their opinion is thaH the Republican
party at this. time, while anxious to
make inroads in the South, will run
pretty true to form. The "Old Guard
is more strongly entrenched than
ever, and the, cold Guard is strong
for keeping in the beaten path. Il
knows the chances Of organizing a
live party in South Carolina are slim
and it knows further that the delega-
tions from this state to national con-
ventions have been. useful for the
Old Guards purposes in the past and
| can be counted on in the future. For
these reasons most observers are
skeptical about the McLaurin and
Campbell stories and are inclined tc
believe that the Tolbert wing of the
Republican party will hold it's own.
At the same time developments are
being watched with interest. There
| has been a. good deal Of running back
and forth to Washington among those
| interested, but it will be a real sur
prise to those who think they know
| something of the political game ii
| anything materializes from all of the
visits.
