there to consider how to strengthen
the Republican party in South Caro-

chairman Of the Republican national
committee; Joseph B. Healing, men,
ber of the committee from Indiana;
Clarence B. Miller, secretary Of the
committee; DR.. Williams of Rock Hill
and Mr.. Anderson from Marion, S. c..
''Dr. Williams had considerable to
say and was finally asked by Mr.. Keal-
ing whether he would attend con-
vention in South Carolina where there
were also black men present as dele
gates. DR.. Williams said he would,
and before he was through, said he
would ask if would resign. He SEEM
ed to think that I was keeping white
men away. Anderson also seemed to
have about the same idea about how
the Republican party should run its
affairs. He also had no objection to
negroes as delegates.
Does Not Like Kickers.
"My answer was that I would not,
and certainly would not for such
men as are now kicking about me be-
ing chairman"
Mr.. Tolbert further says in his
statement that he would ''be glad to
have DR.. Williams and Mr.. Anderson
and all the others in September, 1922,
at which time the Republican state
convention would be held and the
party reorganized.'

men at the state convention we would
make the election of their men unanl-

the state chairman added, "but | will

State of October 27, 1920, will show,

The Index-Journal that he did not get
to be chairman by the resignation of
any one else and he has no intention

Republican party in South Carolina
until he issues the call for .Fthe meet

With reference to the meeting re-

Objects From Banberg We'll Ex-
., cites Interest of News and Courier

Yet, though the Dinosaurs and
Pterodactyls disappeared many mil
lions of years ago, the earth, as the
geologist views it, was already old
at the time when they fourished; and
since then vast changes have taken
place on this continent-very, very
slowly, seldom, if ever, by sudden up
heavals- accompanied by marvellous
changes in the earth's living inhabi-
tants. 1t was, as the geologist meas
ures time, only day before yesterday
that the ocean extended as far as
Columbia. When it receded slowly,
very slowly, the coastal plain of South
Carolina became the home of land
creatures as strange as theMosasaurs
and other huge sea creatures which
had formerly inhabited it. Now our
largest wild animals are the white
tailed deer and the black bear which
still survives in our swamps. But
yesterday-according to the geolog-
lists calendar-mastodon and MAN.
moths, white tusks that would put an
elephants to shame, roam!ed over
South Carolina, and huge ground
sloths, like Mylodon and Megathe-
rum, as heavy, if no as tai as ele-
plants, made this region their home.
The story from Bamberg about the
fragments of wood and the sharks
tooth brought up in the digging OF
the we'll says that these objects are
of great interest to the geologist but
may be of little interest to the lay
man. They would be of intense in
terest to the layman too if the aver
age man had any idea of how fasci-
mating is the wonder story that the
geologist and his colleague, the pale
ontoIogist, have to tell-a story re-.
vealed by just such objects as those
fragments of wood and that sharks
tooth. Most people think contemptu-
ously of fossils. "Fossil' in every
day language has become term OF
reproach. As a matter of fact, fossils
are among the most fascinating things
under the sun; and they tell story
about the strange past of South Caro-
lima, the dim, almost inconceivably
distant past, which is among the most
marvellous ever told-a story which
goes back to a time when all South
Carolina was covered by the ocean;
a story which comes down through
age after age of the world While
the continent gradually emerged from
the sea; story across the pages
of which move mighty dragons of
the prime stranger and more fan
tastic than any dragon Of fable.
If the finding of these fragments
of ancient wood deep under the soil
at Bamberg serves to open up for
some people, who have never, taken
the trouble to look, into it before,
that Wonder Book of the past waich
the geologist and the paleontologist
have compiled from the record of the
rocks and of the fossils, the digging
of that artesian well will serve an
other good purpose besides supplying
the good town of Bamberg with

The finding of bits Of wood, shells,
sharks teeth, etc., in the BamDerg
artesian we'll, arouses the geological
interest of the News and Courier, the
editor of which delivers himself OF
the following interesting dissertation
on "The Wonders in a Well"
They are drilling an arteslan we'll
at Bamberg and from depth OF 426
feet a number of pieces of wood have
been brought up by the well-dlggers.
At depth of about 430 feet sharks
tooth was found in stratum of sand
described as being apparently the bed
of an ancient ocean. These events
have stirred deep interest locally and,
according to the story, the townspeo-
ple OF Bamberg are asking themselves
how many years have elapsed since
the Atlantic or some other medieval
or primevai ocean covered the site
of their town.
Nobody knows exaetlyshow many
years ago it was. Referring to the
pieces of wood brought up by the
well-diggers the story notes that in
asmuch as there has been no upheaval
in this country since the discovery
of America by Colum bus, seven hun
dred years ago, the age of these OBJ
jects is necessarily very great The
geologist would smile at that. The
centuries which have elapsed since
Columbus discovered America are but
as moment compared with the ages
THAT have passed since those pieces
of wo ood sank under the sea and since
the shark from which that tooth came
swan those ancient waters. The geo.
logist does not reckon years by the
hundred. He. reckons them by the
million.
Go back far enough with him and
he will take you to a time when the
ocean not only covered the place
where Bamberg now stands but when
it covered the greater part OF what
is now the United States. In the
east only the tops of the Appalachian
mountains stood up as islands out or
the vast sea. Westward from these
islands stretched another-waste eta
a part of the same-waste OF waters
out of, which the SUBMITS OF what
were to be the Rockies projected,
forming another island-chain. Gradu-
ally the land rose and the North
American continent began to take
shape 80 slowly that the process
would not have been disceruible to
man if there had been any men IN
existence then-and, of course, there
were none: Aeons were yet to elapse
before man appeared on earth. Long
before he came-millions OF years De-
fore he came-came the Dinosaurs,
the most gigantic land creatures that
ever existed, huge reptiles. Some OF
them from 60 to 80 feet long, COM
pared with which the largest alhga-
tor is a pygmy; and with the Dlnos-
aurs came those strange flying rep

othar fantastic forms almost as

NEW YORK, Nov 26.-Just prior to his departure yesterday afternoon for Paris after attending the first sessions of the Arms Conference, Premier Briand took sharp issue with Lord Curzon for his speech made in London yesterday, intimat- ing that France had stolen a march" on the Allies by entering a separate agreement with the Turkish Nationalists government.
 Premier Briand said: Our agree ment was not a treaty, but purely an agreement for the settlement of spe- cfal questions concerning the frontier of Syria and Silica. exchange of prl- soners and cessation of hostilities which since the World War has cost France several thousand men who were killed and also compelling us to keep in distant regions an army of 10000 men. It was an intolerable burden for which the French Par liament would not longer assume the responsibility.

Millions of California
 Canteloupes Eaten in U. s.

SAN FRANCISCO. Nov. 26.-More than 153,O0O,O00 cantaloupes-enough to furnish every resident of the United States for a melon and a half for breakfast--were raised in the 1m- perial Valley of Southern California this year, according to the Pacific Fruit Express Company.
 Land on which the melons were raised not so many years ago was desert. Now more than 400 miles of irrigation canals carry water from the Colorado River to Imperial Val ley farms. The valley is located not far from the lowest land depression in the world.
 In all. 13,000 carloads of canta- loupes were shipped from Imperial Valley points this year to Pacific Coast and Eastern markets. All went out in refrigerator cars, big ice manufacturing plants being operated at Brawley and El Centro, valley points, to stock the cars.

UNITED MINE
 WORKERS ARE
 TO CELEBRATE
Big Organization Is Now Rounding Out Thirty First
 Year of Existence.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Nov 26.-- The United Mine Workers of Amer ica is just rounding out the 31st year of it's existence. Its leaders believe this will be memorable year in the history Of the organiza- tion. This union, one of the strong est of the labor organizations in the United States, is now confronted with the possibility of a nationwide strike in protest against the decision of U. s. District Judge A. B. Anderson to enjoin coal operators from con tinuing the check-off system by which the companies deduct miners union dues from their wages, turn ing the money over to local union officials.
 The union will complete it's 32nd year on January 20, 1922. It came into existence January 20. 1890, at meeting held in Columbus. Ohio, two rival organizations deciding at that time to unite under the name WHICH IS Sllu III use.
 The history of the union movement among the miners of this country starts with a local union organized in the anthracite coal region of Pennsylvania in 1S49. The union of the miners into the present organiza- tion only came about after the nu- merous difficulties that mark the evolution of the labor movement Strikes. internal wars and opposition from mine operators are all written in the history of the miners.
 Any efforts that the union may make as a national body in the pres ent situation will be directed from the headquarters here. John L. Lewis. president. with members of the international executive board, and William Green. secretary-treas- urer, will be in charge Of the ad- ministration of strike activities, if this course is decided upon
 The membership of the union at the present time is approximately 500.000. this number including miners of the anthracite fields who probably would not be affected by a strike, inasmuch as the check-off system. the point at issue in the present con- troversy, is applied only in the bitu. minous fields.

WASHINGTON Nov. 26-The outgrowth of the present Arms Con- ference is expected to be the pro- posal by President Warren G. Hard ing that the nations meet periodical ly and discuss international subjects.
 The informal suggestion advanced by the President for continued in .ernational meetings may have frui. ticn in an Association of Nations"
 Although details of the plan are still vague, it is believed other na- tions. including Germany and Russia. will be invited to participate event. ually
 Thus far President Harding's scheme includes the suggestion of natfons meeting around council table annually and thresh out trou- blesome questions and devise means to preserve peace. i
 There is no indication that cov-' enant or constitution will be devised or any formal binding organization. r.
 Whether an International Court of Justice might be the result is sub iect which the President said might he considered as a nebulous for the present. although he is known to re- gard such tribunal as a logical part of the plan.
 President Harding is against unfa- vorable treaties between nations pre- ferring "gentlemen's agreements" considering governments are as apt to keep informal as well as written promises.
