FOURTH OF JULY
A BIG SUCCESS
ETHAN 1000 VISITORS COME
TO KINGSTREE FOR THE
EVENTS.

The celebration of the Fourth Of
July, carried out in Kingstree Mon
day, proved the largest thing of the
kind ever held here. More than 1000
visitors from all sections of the sur
rounding county were here to join
in the happy crowd Of merry makers.
The morning programme was devot-
ed to prize contests, such as fat
mans race, climbing the creased
pole, a honeymoon contest, etc.,
which furnished some quite amusing
incidents for the crowds. An air
plane, in charge of Lieuts. Runser and
Turner, furnished the chief attraction
for the day. The outstanding feautre
of their programme was their "Death
Tray Dive, in which Lieut.. Turner
hans by his feet from the landing gear
while the machine is diving head
downwards at a speed Of 200 miles
per hour. Their programme was cut
short by the approach of an electrical
and wind storm however, it furnish
ed a spectacular incident for the on
lockers during its few moments exis.
tence.
In the afternoon, Lake City and
Kingstree crossed bats in one Of the
best games of baseball seen on the
local diamond during this season. The
game, too, was confined to only seven
innings on account of the diamond be-
ing wet from the rain. 1t was neces-
sary to dry the diamond by brushing
as much water from it as possible
with board and then burning gaso-
line on the diamond to further dry it
before the game could be begun.
Lake City put up a good game, but
the Kingstree team had been so
strengthened by the addition of sew
carl players especially for she game,
that the Lake City team was put on
the defensive from the beginning. In
spite of the fact that the Lake City
team was outclassed from the begin
ming, players held control and gave
the fans present good exhibition of
ball playing, the final score being a
to 0 in favor of the >Kingstree team.
Three of these runs, however, were
made in the first inning.
1t is hoped by some of the promot-
ers of this event that the celebration
on Monday will serve as the beginning
of annual celebrations of this kind and
it is expected more preparation will
be put forth in the future as to PLAN
ming and carrying out similar cele-
brations, if it is. decided to continue
the project.
The profits from the celebration
held Monday, it is understood, will 60

purpose of erecting playhouse on

HARDING SINGNS
PEACE PAPER
AMERICA SLIPS OUT OF WORLD
WAR WITH GERMANY AND
AUSTRIA.

Raritan, July 2-The resolution OF
congress declaring war with Germany
and Astria-Hungary at. an end was
signed here late today by President
Harding.
So that there might be no unnec-
essary delay in consumation, of the
long deferred state of peace the reso-
luton was brought here by special
messenger from Washington where it
had been given final congressional
approval yesterday. The messenget
left for the capital agsbn tonight to
complete the formalities of the decla-
ration by depositing the document in
the archives Of the State Department.
Little of the Dramatic.
There was little of the dramatic in
the actual ceremony of giving Presi-
Genital approval 10 the measure. Re-
turning here from a luncheon and
golf game at the Somerville Hill
Country Club the President found
the White House messenger, E. W.
Smithers, waiting for him on the We
randa of the Frelinghuysen house.
Mr.. Harding immediately put on his
nose glasses and, sitting in porch
swing, examined the official copy OF
the resolution minutely. The signing
took place at small mahogany ia
BILE in the adjacent living room in
the center of a distinguished group,
which included the President, host
and hostess, Speaker Gillett of the
House of Representatives, Senator
Kellogg, of Minnesota, a member of
the senate foreign relations commit
tee,, Senator Hale Of Maine, and other
members of the weekend party.
"Wel That's That"
AS the Presidents pen scratched
cut the final letters of his name, one
OF the group remarked:
"Well, that's that, Mr.. President"
eyes, that's it," replied Mr.. Hard
ing, with broad smile, and the
others responded with a quick burst
of handclapping as the historic sig
nifcance of the occasion had been
borne in upon them.
No formal statement was made by
the President in connection with the
affixing of his signature and the con-
summation of the first formal step
in the announced peace program OF
the administration. With other pa
pcrs of a routine character brought
here for his attention, the President
returned the peace resolution as soon
as it had been signed and then pre-
pared to resume his interrupted hol'
iday by getting into golf clothes for
another workout on the links.
In signing. the resolution the Pres
ident used a pen sent him for this
purpose by Representative Porter OF
Pennsylvania, chairman of The House
forign affairs committee ard joint
author of the measure. The pen will
be returned to Mr.. Porter as souve-
mir.

COOPER IS GUILTY,
ACCORDING TO JURY,
Is Convicted of the Killing of Nick
Dulica at Whites Creek in
October, 1919.

Bennettsville, July 6.-Gullty with
a Recommendation TO the mercy of
the court, was the verdict returned by
Marlboro county jury late this aft
ternoon in the case of the state against
Claude D. Cooper, charged with the
murder of Nick Dulica on or about
October 25, 1919. The verdict, rendered
after the jury had been out about for
ty minutes, carries a sentence Of life
Imprisonment
Judge Edward ". McIver, presiding
at the July term of court of general
sessions, will probably impose sentence
upon the defendant tomorrow morn
ing. Jennings K. Owens, attorney for
Cooper, stated tonight that he would
probably ask for a new trial, and fail
ing to secure this, would carry the
case to the Supreme court.
Cooper was placed on trial yesterday
morning upon the convening of court,
lis being the first case called at this
term and practically two days were
consumed in hearing the matter. The
case was rd-fought throughout and
Interest was intense. This was the Sec
end trial of the case, the first hearing
last March resulting in mistrlal. On
November IA, 1915, the body Of Nick
Dulica partly decomposed, was iouno
living face downward in small
stream of water known as Whites
creek, on the Washington and Atlanta
Highway above Kolloek's. Last Octo-
ber the defendant was arrested IN
Asheville on a charge of stealing auto
mobiles and carried to the Richland
county Jail and later to the state pen
itentiary. A letter addressed to Z. d.
Cooper was found near the body OF
Dulica and this lei to the indictment
of Cooper.
In its trial the State relied upon
the testimony of Mrs. Troy Cooper,
a sister-in-law of the defendant. To
prove that Cooper was in Newport
News shortly after the alleged crime
was committed, Nrs. Cooper testified
that Claude Cooper told her he had
knocked out a m&n and had brought
the car on to Newport News, where
the Coopers were alleged to have had
several stolen cars Troy Cooper was
later convicted and sentenced to the
Atlanta federal prison on this charge.
DR.. L. R. Kirkpatrick testified to
finding the body in Whites creek.
Wounds upon the skull sufficient to
cause death were inflicted by a blunt
rock, offered as evidence in the case.

tc seeing Hudson car at the spot OF
the killing and that two men were
standing where Dnlica's body was
found. Two negro BARRIERS Of CheraW
testified that about two weeks prior to
the finding OF the body to shaving two
men who closely resembled the ode
fendant and deceased at about that
time.
The defense used several witnesses
from Birmingham, Ala, in its effort to
prove that Claude Cooper had been to
Columbia with Dulica, but had return
ed to Birmingham and was in the
Alabama city from October rs until
November A., when he left for Gulf
port, Miss, where he remained for
twelve days. Witnesses from Gulf

BRIDGE BODY GETS
GREAT EXPERIENCE
MEETING IN CHARLESTON WILL
AWARD THE CONTRACT
FOR APPROACHES

Those who did not happen ito be
members of the Santee River Bridge
Commission or to have been one of
that body's guests yesterday, @ have
missed that article in life known as
experience" it is said. This expert
ence came knocking along good, bad
and otherwise, when the party made
it's way to the Santee river bridge
site for an inspection and to hold a
business session.
The contract for the building of
the approaches to the bridge was no;
awarded yesterday, but this will be
attended to at a meeting of the COM
mission to be held in Charleston on
July IA. Yesterday was spent in
viewing the vast undertaking and
noting the progress the contractors
OH the sub-structure nave made thus
far.
The party which made the trip yes
terday to the bridge site was COM
posed of Messrs. w. King Mcdowell,
chairman; C. J. Parek, w. P. Russell,
C. P. Ballentine. S. A. Graham, Will
liam Burguson; M. Rutledge Rivers,
attorney for the commission; j. l..
Parker, bridge engineer, and w. c.
Roberts, resident engineer. The party
left the city by rail at 6 o'clock in
the morning.
Mr.. Russell was accused by his
companions of having suddenly bolt
ed from the Methodist faith to that
of the Baptist denomination, he hav-
ing been first to land in a swamp
Lool.
Mr.. Rivers is alleged also by the
party to have insisted on carrying
his umbrella into the swamp, much
against the advice of some of the
party. He managed to return to the
city last night a few minutes after
1 o'clock with the rest of the ex-
plorers and full of experience" IT IS
felt.
The commission visited the camp
of the Simons-Mayrant Company, the
concern which has the contract to put
in the sub-structure of the bridge and
found things going along merrlly'
The company has erected a well
screened dom;tory for its workmen'
built on stills Is to 20 feet high, has
a number of scows, lighters and pile
drivers in place and also has a big
metal caisson on hand which is to
serve as mold for the pivot pieE
of the draw span.
The Atlantic Bridge Company has
the contract for the installation OF
the bridge proper and this concern
will begin its operations as soon as
the sub-structure is turned over to
it.
Engineer Martin, of Williamsburg
county, was present at the meeting
yesterday and gave some interesting
data on the progress which is be-
ing made on the road in his county
which will connect with the bridge.
He stated that at present the road
way had been completed from Kings
tree to within eight miles of the
bridge and that it extends through to
the Florence county line.
Florence county also has its work
i; hand for the extension of the road
from the county boundary on.
The party yesterday was m"st pleas
antly entertained at luncheon by Mr..
S. A. Graham, he being assisted by
Mr.. julius Gamble.-Charlesron News

CAN BEAT TARIFF LAWS

Washington, Jan. I'm discuss
ing proposed tariff legislation, in
the House of Representatives, Con-
gresham Griffin said:
at is time to understand that
there are malign forces at work in
this country which have the will and
the power to defy tariff laws and
check the operation of the laws of
supply and demand; forces that can,
by combination and secret agree
ments, create an artificial scarcity.
holding back from the markets the
products of labor and thus defy the
natural course of the stream of
commerce. People wondered, when
the Underwood tariff bill was pass
ed, why the cost of living did not
Immediately decrease. 1t should have
shown an immediate response, but
it did not. Why? Because those
who should have been competitors
regulated imports to suit their own
convenience, and entered into Sc
cret trade agreements to uphold
prices. Products which could be
stored in warehouses or put in cold
storage were deliberately held by
such methods out of the market to
maintain high prices.
"When capital has such power as
this the time for tariff tinkering is
at an end. There is only one rem
edy, and that is a policy of national
regulation, both of imports and ex-
ports, with the constant view of
maintaining normal reasonable
prices. The hit-and-miss policy of
tariff schedules must be abandoned. Z"

JUDICIAL USURPATION Is AGAIN
SHOWN BY THE u. s. SUPREME COURT

m any form.
But the significance of this blow
will be appreciated by other citizens
when they realize that the Duplex
Machinists' decision not only CLASH
fies labor as a commodity, but it
extends the power of the judiciary
over Congress by ignoring the ex-
pressed will of that body.
Defenders of the decision say it
puts capital and labor on the same
footing" The ignorance Cor is it
cunning?) of these men is astound-
ing.
To say that capital blast fur
mace, coke oven or a printing press
is equal to labor is to compare an
italists, with a human being.
Labor is not commodity be-
cause it cannot be separated from
the human being. Labor is more
than physical strength 1t is a COM
bination of this and mind, will, in
tellect, spirit-everything that makes
normal man.
Labor cannot be sold unless the
man is sold.
No sharp reasoning, nor murky
logic, no appeals to protect trade
can disguise the outstanding prin-
ciple involved in the Duplex-Ma-
Chinists' decision.
Labor will continue it's fight
against judicial usurpation and the
theory upon which injunction judges
rest their cause.
The United States Supreme Court
has reversed itself on more than
one occasion.
History will repeat.

In 1890 Congress passed the Sher-
man antitrust law. The first SEN
tence in the first section declares:
Every contract, combination in
the form of trust or otherwise, or
conspiracy, in restraint of trade or
commerce among the several states,
or with foreign nations, is hereby
declared to be illegal"
At that time trade unionists asked
that labor organizations be exempt
ed, but were told that that was not
necessary, as the bill spoke for
itself.
But the courts ruled otherwise.
They read into the statute a mean
ing never intended.
In 1914 Congress specifically eX-
cluded labor from the act by its
declaration that the labor of q
human being is not a commodity or
article of commerce"
This was intended as a notifica
ton to the courts that Congress
sees a difference between property
and the labor of human being.
