He tossed these mechanics of the

as much to take as necessary footage

A generation hence boys and girls

man under whose direction this
country made victory certain for the

place In history is fixed. The snap-

gotten in a few years and ne will
stand out for all time as one of the

A CARD.

To My Fort Mill Friends:
Finding that cannot attend regu-
4arly to my appointments at my Fort
Mill Office I have decided to Temporal
rily discontinue the same. This step
is taken by me with considerable. re-
luctance, as the people of Fort Mill
have been quite generous in placing
legal business in my hands. / de-
sire to extend to those who have SO
favored me my most cordial thanks.
and to say that will continue to
have a deep interest in all matters
pertaining to the welfare and up-
building of this live little city and
community. @
l hope that I may be permitted to
resume my Office here In the not far
distant future. and, in the meantime,
will be glad to see any of my Fort
Mill friends over at Rock Hill when
ever II may please them to call on
me there.
Yours, very sincerely,
VIM. j. CHERRY, Attorney.

The n4tional Democratic committee
is In the midst Of wranele over the
advisabiiity of retaining George
White as chairman. Friends on the
committee OF former Governor
J Cox. candidate last year for the pres
idency. are opposed sto d!splacing
White. while committee members
known to be friends OF william @.
McAdoo are insistent upon the i'm
mediate retirement OF White and
moro than half the members OF the
committee have requested him to
call the body together few weeks
hence. Thus begins the fight the
country will witness for control OF
the party machinery and the party
leadership in the next presidential
election. Governor Cox's friends say
that because OF conditions following
the war he was marked for defeat
from the day he was nominated and
that in the face OF insurmountable
difficulties he made q campaign which
entities him to q second nomination.
or course this view is not shared by.
the friends of McAdoo who argue
that Governor Cox was so badly
beaten last fall that 1t would be folly
to again nominate him and that
good way to apprise the country Of
cred for the party-leadership In 1924
Is to remove the man he selected es
chairman. Regardless OF what may
be said about Governor Cox again
leading the party. there is no doubt.
In our opinion. OF, the wisdom of the
plan to force White out OF the
chairmanship. The job is too big for
him. A few days prior TO the election
last fall The Times expressed the
opinion that Governor Cox had DEM
onstrated his capacity for leadership
and that regardless Of the outcome
of rhe election, ne slou i nc put Ter
ward as the party standard bearer
in 1924. But since then we have
reached the conclusion that there Is
much to be said on the other side of
the question. We expect to see the
Republican party fall down on the
job of running the country during
the Harding. administration and II
the Democratic party displays wis.
dom in the selection of its nominee
three years hence, the country will
be Ia humor TO turn. to him. Nc
Adoo may be that man. The country
by that time will have put behind 1t
Nthe senseless prejudice against Pres
ident Wilson which operated SO
strongly last year against the former
secretary of the treasury. Meanwhile
little attention should be paid to
what Champ Clark says In this or
any other connection affecting the
interest Of the party.
