has failed to keep its promises made
I'll the last presidential election, sena-
tor Pat Harrison. OF Mississippi
81 eaknig at a Luncheon rendered him
fere tocsy by the chamber CT com
merce. predicted that the next con-
gress will have a democratic majority
and that President Harding will be
succeeded by a democrat at the end Of
his present term.
Senator Harrison was the principal
speaker at the memorial exercises held

sacrifice IN the worth war IN eonnecr
tion with the memorial exercises a
monument to the World war dead of
the county was unveiled and dedi-
Gated
In Senator Harrison's memorial ad-
dress ne steered clear Of politics and
factional political wrangles. But in
his address before the business men,
which was made at the luncheon which
was given in his honor he left off the
solemn vein which characterized his
memorial address and warmed UP on
political issues Of the day.
The republicans have fallen down
badly, the senator stated. That which
the republican congress has done has
been all wrong, he said, while it has
left undone those things which are
most needed and should have been the
first to be disposed Of
The passage OF certain tax bins, the
seating OF Senator Newberry and the
pending ubiquitous" tariff measure are
some OF the things which Senator Harri-
son declared have had much to do with
getting the republicans In bad shape
with the people and causing dissatisfac-
tion throughout the country. He said
that the republicans viii be held TO
strict accountability for these IN the
November election and predicted a ma
Jority for the democrats.
II do not believe there Is a republican
here. the Senator said. "and / want to
ten you that there are many. less Of
them now than there were at the last
election.
"A few democrats supported Harding,
but they know better now. They have
seen tho error Of their way and never
again viii they be lead away from the
party that stands for an the people"
N his memorial address Senator Har-
rfS5n paid a beautiful tribute to former
President Woodrow Wilson. The speak
er was loudly applauded many times dur?
Ing his address but nothing brought
such an outburst as his reference to Mr..
Wilson, whose childhood home was in
wilmington.
Woodrow wilsof was the greatest pilot
what ever guided the ship OF state the
speaker stated adding that Mr.. Wilson
Is las much a wounded soldier as any
veteran now in the government hospi-
tails"
