Fort Mill times. [volume] (Fort Mill, S.C.) 1892-current, 1922-07-13

The Republican leaders in Con-
gress are still rubbing their eyes
following the awful jolt they got
in the North Dakota primaries.
Senator McCumber's defeat for
denomination was the plainest
and most emphatic, Reputation
OF the Harding administration
the country has yet given, which
is emphasized by, the fact that
McCumber had served "a years
III Congress and had risen to the
chairnianship of the great com
mittee OH finance, where he was
the spokesman of the reactionary
Harding administration. Many
OF the great newspapers of the
country had anticipated the re-
suit of the North Dakota prima-
ry, however, for they realized
that the people have lost conf
dcnce in the Harding administra-
ton and are disgusted with the
do-nothing Congress-.
Announcement is made in Co.
lumbia that Governor Harvey has
appointed Ex-Governor Cooper as
the South Carolina member of
committee of Southern men re-
siding in Washington to oppose
the passage Of the Dyer anti
lynching bill, now before the
Cnitcd States senate. Governor
Cooper wasn't born yesterday
and he is apt to think twice be-
fore he becomes mixed up III a
political contest i'll opposition ~
the attitude of those to whom he
is indebted for the federal ap-
pointment he is holding. The loss
of independence is one Of the
penalties one must pay for ac.
c,ptimg political favors at the
hands of those with whose poll
cies he is not in sympathy.

THURSDAY, JULY 13, 1922:

Z Douth Sdioiihd are Ill fDdu shape
financially and the promise Of
better times in the immediate fu-
ture is one Of those things all
like to hear about but which few
are really SO credulous as to ex-
pect. Since the financial depres-
sion and the boil weevil struck
the State about two years ago, to
jointly make. hard times for thou
sands of our people, we have been
told so often by the daily press
that conditions were again be-
coming normal that all faith in
such stories has been lost. Ex-
cept for the recent advance in
the price of cotton, which helped
only few farmers and others
fortunate enough to have OH hand
a part of last years crop, moth
ing has occurred in recent months
to ease the strain practically ev.
erybody has been under. Whether
there is any merit or not in the
claim that the Congress Of the
United States is doing what i
can to cut down appropriations
one hears no criticism Of the
body on that score. More than
al; any time in recent years, at
least, the people are demanding
economy in the conduct of the
public business. They want their
governments, both State and na.
tional, run on scale which will
call for the expenditure of less
money and thereby relieve the
tax burden as much as possible.
In South Carolina an odd situa-
tion exists in this connection. A
great majority of the people are
5 convinced that the State govern
ment is costing too much, that III
recent years many useless Offices
have been created and that much
money could be saved if these
Offices were abolished and others
run more economically. But lei
. the suggestion come from r.,
sponsible source that the cost OF
running the State government
should be cut down and section
of the daily press Immediately
throws up its hands and under
takes to belittle the suggestion
by asking, Would you destroy
Winthrop college, would you
tnrnthe boys at the university out
il.to the street, would yen close
the doors of the Citadel and the
medical college, would you take
from the inmates of the State
hospital the food and clothing
and treatment they need, would
you cripple the public schools
The motive behind the question.
Is SO apparent, and the same old
question has been repeated so of
ten that it really is not worth
taking seriously but it befuddles
the brains Of some as it is meant
to do and they are thereby led to
believe that an army of iconO-
ciasts who would tear down ev-
erything is about to be turned
loose on the State. Nobody with
enough sense to know that he
risks cutting his mouth Il he eats
nth his knife wants to cripple
SS destroy any institution worth
6g, and the colleges and'
lic sSAoole are most assuredly
eldss. But there are I'M.

>SuDJect, Dut lOlS OF people tnink
( has.
Here is bit Of choice cam
paign thunder that the Democrats
ire apt to use 10 good advantage
i'll the congressional elections
leNt fall. 1t is from a speech de-
livered in the house of represen-
aatives last fall by Congressman
Wood of Indiana, who has just
been made chairman of the Re-
publican congressional campaign
committee: II know the very Sc
ricus condition that is prevailing
throughout the land. am only
speaking the truth when | say
that the people of this country
employed in every vocation and
IA every character of business are
giving this Congress hell. They
re doing it because we have done
aothing to stimulate business.
fhey are doing it because we
nave done nothing to give en-
.,loyment to the unemployed.
hey are doing it because we
ave done nothing to benefit the
armer and stimulate the price of
he farmers products. This is
he deliberate utterance of tn.
nan who has been given the task
Of reelecting the very Congress
whose shortcomings he SO point
edly described.
Possibly it doesn't make much
difference, but good many peO-
pie frequently find themselves
wondering why it is SO seldom
convenient for Senator Z. ID.
Smith to attend the sessions of
,he United States senate.
&We see by the papers that
young man named Rufus Grant
is adjutant general of South Car
olina and that he landed in the
Orangeburg police court a few
days ago OH the charge of drunk
and disorderly. At the time we
thought it inconsiderate of the
0rangeburg authorities not to al
low the adjutant general to get
as drunk as ford and as disor-
dcrly as q striking dock worker
If he saw fit without even think
mg Of making out case against
him. The plight Of the adjutant
general was really distressing to
u, but we were greatly relieved
when he assured the public in a
accumulation to one Of the daily
pePers that he was neither drunk
nor disorderly.

FURTHER EVIDENCE OF
BUSINESS BETTERMENT'
June Trade ShoUs AdUance
Over That in May.
Or NEW YON

Although the status of general busi-
ness was not much changed last week.
evidence of further Improvement was
not lacking. Progress would have been
more rapid II labor troubles had not
impeded 1t in some important industries.
Brddstreet's Says. Improvement, slow
and careful in some areas. relatively
fast in others. Is still the word most
commonly used in describing the prog
ress of distributive trade of industry
and Of crops. There is more doing In
June however, than there was in May,
In which month things gained over
April. and the advance over June year
ago Is Of course unmistakable.
Dun's ReUie,o says "A significant and
reassuring phase is the development Of
increasing confidence in many quarters,
and reflection of the better sentiment
appears in the more numerous inquiries
and actual orders to cover both imme-
diate and forward requirements.

Transportation shares made a show
Of strength under the influence of<a

tai. which got to 93s4 on a turnover
Of more than 5000 shares. The advance
in this stock was in accord with Wall

pect of increased dividends IN the not
distant future Despite the coal miners
strike, the Central Is earning it's Sc divi-
dend. and has done SO since the begin
ming of the year. Furthermore, IL has
a substantial equity in the undivided
earnings of several subsidiaries which
robably will be absorbed in time. 1t is
pointed out that a higher dividend rate
probably would cause the conversion Of
500. .0O0. 900 debentures into stock and en-
able the company to finance some OF its
capital requirements with stock. The
general conviction Prevailing in the
financial community Is that. Nth the
coal strike settled and an ouh ok for

roads earnings probably would justify

policy that has been observed by inter-

funds loaned out on call whenever rates
declined TO per cent. or thereabouts.
The withdrawal of these funds usually
causes the rate to rise and the money
is then returned TO Wall Street. The
