MANY IN WASHINGTON
FOR INAUGURATION
Visitors Flock to Capital Despite the
Lack of Ceremony-Cold But
Fair Day Forecast

Washington, March 3.-The influx
CT visitors to Washington to attend
the Inauguration Friday has started.
Despite the abandonment Of plans for
an elaborate ceremony, hundreds of
people arrived today and tomorrow,
the number is expected to run into
the thousands with other thousands
to arrive Friday morning.
The special forecast of cold and
probably fair weather for Inaugural
ton day which went out today from
the weather bureau may result in
materially increasing the out Of town
crowd.
President-elect Harding with Mrs.
Harding and a number of friends will
arrive this afternoon from Marion.
He will go direct to the New Willard
hotel, where he will make his head
quarters until he starts for the capi.
tel Friday morning. Vice President
elect Coolidge and several members
Of the new cabinet already are on the
ground. The cabinet officers designat-
ed here include Will H. Hays to be
postmaster general, Edwin DENLY to
be secretary of the navy, John W.
Weeks to be secretary Of war, and
Senator Fall to be secretary of the
interior.
New Cabinet Members
Other prospective members of the
cabinet are expected to arrive today
CT early Friday. Most of them will
not actually take over direction of
the various government departments
to which they have been assigned un.
til Saturday. Meantime some of them
are conferring with present cabinet
officers ! to familiarize themselves
with the work ahead of them.
Whether President Wilson is &C.
tually to attend the Inauguration of
Mr.. Harding still remains to be de-
termined. White House officials said
today the president was anxious to
follow all precedents and the con-
gressional inaugural committee has
agreed to provide chair for him on
the east portico of the capitol. Other
guests at the inauguration will stand
Turing the ceremony and the delivery
of Mr.. Harding's speech.
1t is definitely settled that Mr.. Will
SON will be present at the inaugura-
lion of Mr.. Coolidge. He will ride
to the capitol with Mr.. Harding but
will not accompany him back to the
White House as is the usual custom.
Instead he will go direct to his re-
Gently acquired home on S. street
where during the afternoon he will
receive Democratic senate leaders
and other official friends.

TUMULTY DECLINES JOB
RENDERED HIM BY WILSON

Washington, March 3.-Joseph P.
Tumulty, secretary to President Will
son, announced today that he had de-
clined appointment as member of
the international Joint commission.
He said it would not be fair to the
president for him to accept a post to
which he would not be able to give
"full time and consideration"
Mr.. Tumulty said his declination
would not mean the reappointment
of Obadiah Gardner, of Maine, chair
man of The comm ;ssion, whose re
signation has been accepted by the
president.

As. c. BRIDGE
BILL is PASSED

Washington, March 3.-The bill
granting consent of Congress to j.
]. Smith and J. E. McGee Of Starr,
S. c., to build bridge across the
Savannah River near Hailey's
Ferry, between Anderson County,
South Carolina, and Hart County,
Georgia, was passed by both senate
and House Thursday in hurried
fashion in keeping with the effort
being made to jam everything
through in the closing hours Of the
Congress session.
It's passage came near creating a
riot in the Senate, however, when
Senator Poindexter, chairman OF
the Naval Committee, accused Sem
ator Ellison Smith of South Caro-
lima, who presented the bill, with
participating in the efforts to defeat
passage of the naval bill.
When the bridge bill was called
up and the naval bill temporarily
laid aside, Senator Poindexter, who
is suffering from nerves" brought
about by the filibuster against the
navy bill, objected to its considera-
ton. "There is nothing in this bill
but permission to build the bridge"
said Senator Smith Of South Caro-
lima appealingly.
"The bill we have been trying to
get passed for several days (naval
billy and which the senator has been
insisting on defeating is nothing at
all but the naval appropriation BILL"
hurled out Poindexter, with sarcas-
tic irritation.
"What is that?" said Smith,
scarcely believing his ears.
"Let the senator read the record"
snapped Poindexter.
"Did I understand the senator to
say I was here attempting to defeat
the naval bill," asked Smith, with
frmness.
81 said the senator had occupied
great deal of time and had partici-
pated in defeating the naval appro-
priation bill," replied Poindexter.
81 absolutely repudiate that as be-
ing altogether unfounded and un-
called for" shouted Smith, advanc-
ing towards the aisle.
Sensing a. battle, Senator Lodge
called for regular order, taking the
belligerants off their feet and lay
ing the bill aside.
It was called up a little later by
Senator Dial of South Carolina,
however. Poindexter then meekly
said he understood it was a bill that
would occasion no debate, being
mere routine bridge bill and he
would not object to it. It was imme-
diately passed and now goes to the
President for signature.

MORE LIQUOR.

Deputies C. ]. Bruce and Van Mar
tin caught another still Wednesday,
but it was like Dock Weston's stolen
pig. it was "a leetle bit of an old
thing" but it would make liquor. The
capture was made in the Little River
section. Calvin Alewine was arrested
charged with operating the still and
was lodged in the Anderson Jail.
Sheriff McLane and Deputy Cam
arrested a negro named Dennis Lind
say at the S. A. L. Shops yesterday
charged with transporting liquors and
having the same in his possession.
The authorities here have been hav-
ing trouble with liquor peddlars who
bring the liquor from the Georgia
side to the city and sell it locally. In
order to break up this practice the Of
ficers are watching the incoming
trains. Yesterday Sheriff McLane and
Mr.. Cam caught the negro named
with two quarts of blind tiger liquor.
He evidently saw the officers because
he undertook to hide in one of the
toilets of the colored coach on No.
80, but the officers located him. When
they got him out, they went inside
and found that he had hid one quart
of the liquor in addition to what he
had on his person. He also tried to
hide 3s calibre pistol which he was
carrying. He will answer to both the
liquor and the pistol carrying charge.

MRS. WILSON REMOVES
HER $75,oo TAPESTRY
TO THEIR NEW HOME

Washington, March 3.-The $751;
900 tapestry presented to Mrs. Will
son, wife of the president, during the
peace conference, will find a place in
the new home of the Wilson's. Mrs.
Wilson, it was learned today, has re-
moved the tapestry from the east
room of the White House where it
has been hanging since it was brought
to the United States.

Will SON WILL RESUME
THE PRACTICE OF LAW !

Wilson formally announced today
that he would resume the practice
of law" in a partnership with Balm
bridge Colby, the retiring Secretary
of State. The firm will maintain Of
fices in New York and Washington.
The announcement was made at
the White House in the following
statement:
"President Wilson mace the an
nouncement today that at the con-
clusion of his term of Office, ne
would resume the practice Of law,
forming a partnership with the Sec
retary of State, cambridge Colby.
"The firm will have Offices in New
York and Washington"
The Presidents announcement
wholly unexpected, will recall to the
public mind one of his least known
If attainments-that of being a law
YER He was graduated in law from
the University of Virginia in 1881
and practiced in Atlanta in 1882 and
1888. In the latter year he went to
Baltimore to take up postgraduate
work at John Hopkins University
and practiced some in the local
courts in that city. Mr.. Wilson did
not remain long at the practice OF
law, however, for in 1885 he began
his career as a college professor TAX
ing I'D the chair of history and poll
tical economy at Byrn Mawr. From
that time onward until he left the
field of collegiate work and became
governor Of New Jersey. Mr.. Wilson
did not figure in the practice Of law.
No announcement was made of
the character of practice the new
firm will take up, but the presump-
ton is that it will engage principal
" in international law and collater-
al work.
The announcement that offices
would be maintained in New York
and Washington was generally TAX
en- to mean that Mr.. Colby probably
! would take charge of affairs at New
York and that Mr.. Wilson, who will
maintain his home here, would look
after affairs in Washington.
May Not Be Active
How actively the retiring Presi-
dent might take part in the. firms
practice within the limitations Of his
present physical condition is open
to wide speculation. When he said
goodbye to his cabinet members
earlier in the week he was obliged
to use his cane to get about from
the White House to the executive
offices, and when the newspaper
men attached to the White House
asked for a farewell audience, the
President declined on the ground
that his voice was too weak.
The Presidents friends apparent.
" were as much in the dark as to
his plans as was the public up to the
moment of the announcement, but
they generally supposed that MIR"
Wilson's connection with the new
firm would be very largely that of
counsellor. Whether 4Mr. Wilson
intended to appear in court was not
made clear, although it was stated
at the White House that he would
apply for admission to practice be.
fore the Supreme Court of the Uni.
ted States.
Probably no announcement OF any
nature has surprised Washington
more during recent months. Mr..
Wilson kept his own counsel con-
cerning his plans up to the last mo-
ment, and the men who have been
most closely associated with him
personally and privately during the
last eight years, said they knew
nothing of the Presidents plans un-
til this morning.

THE FARM LOAN BANK

ue uCSlSLSA VA SAAS
of the United States sustaining the
constitutionality of the Federal Farm
Loan Bank should bring relief to
many sections of the South. If the
farm loan associations in the several
communities are enabled to function
at an early date, they should be able
IN remove a great deal of uncertainty
about farming operations for the
present year.
As we suggested a few days ago
the matter of securing advances on
which to run the farms the present
wear is one which is already giving
farmers and others alike grave con
cern. Few of the banks have paid
their last years loans secured from
other banks, and very few farmers
have paid their obligations to the
merchants and to the local banks.
The result has been and is that there
is considerable stagnation in the mat
ter of collections.
If the farmers are able to secure
money at reasonable rates OF inter
est from the farm loan banks with
which to make the present crop, they
will be enabled to hold some of the
cotton off the market which other
wise they would be forced to sell at
whatever price is offered, because as
before remarked, with matters as
they were before the decision, there
was no way by which advances might
be obtained except through the sale
of cotton on hands. In many cases
where farmers have sold their crops
Of cotton, and where they are still
indebted for the expenses of making
last years crop, they will be enabled
to borrow money on long time to set
tie up these debts, thus obtaining re-
lief for themselves from pressing OBJ
ligstions, and we'll as being thus en-
abled to assist the banks, which have
been carrying them, to meet the
banks obligations.
While all of this is true, and while
the decision of the court in this mat
ter offers a remedy for a considerable
part of our ills, we would advise the
people to be cautious the present
year. They should be cautious espe-
cially in the matter of procuring
loans for making the next crop: Large
amounts Of aoney borrowed and in
vested in cop yet to be planted,
with the present outlook as to prices,
would be suicidal. No more money,
we think, should be borrowed the
present year for farming operations
than is necessary to straighten out
existing indebtedness and to meet
the bare necessities of living. 1t is
certainly not a time for farmer or
business man to borrow large amounts
of money for speculative purposes,
either in the matter of farming or in
other business. The people should be
advised that while the decision of the
court opens the door of help to them
in their present troubles, it should
not be used as a means of getting in
to further trouble and deeper water
than that now about them.
