Rockbound Craft.

Personally this paper knows very
little about either Senator Mcclellan
or Mr.. Fitzhugh. We presume they
are both gentlemen of high charac-
ter and standing aaapg those who
know them well. What we are in
terested in is what they stand for
and when the Nashville Banner
comes out in its very next edition af-
ter the withdrawal of Mr.. Patterson
and undertakes to say that Patter-
sons withdrawal means a landslide
for Mcclellan that paper is doing one
of two things: 1t is either taking
an unprecedented poll of the vote or
it is placing itself in the peculiar at
titude of supporting candidate who
is not by any means in accord with
the Banners position in regard to
the soldier bonus or with other ques-
tions of statecraft. Senator Nickel
devoted himself particularly to the
advocacy of a general soldier bonus
measure by the national Congress-
and in private conversation stated
that everyone else should do the
same thing. In addition to this the
Senator is having the newspapers
make a general publicity campaign
of his aid and support of many gov
eminent undertakings that really
belong to the State-government aid
to this and a bureau for that, and
column or so of farm extension stuff,
say nothing of any other department
making a bid especially for the
farmer vote. In other words, the
Senator doesn't seem to distinguish
between State sovereignty and pa
ternaIism, or rather disregards the
principle of statehood.
Our contention is that the govern
ment functioned just as we'll with
smaller percentage of Cover nment
employees and bureaus; that without
reference to the question of States
rights the disproprtionate increase
of national government costs the peo-
pie more than the benefits derived
from the extensions that are contin-
ually promoted, like the many
things, good or indifferent, that MIR.
Mcclellan is engaged in. AS Senator
Stanley says, we are drifting upon
the rocks of paternalism, and the
visions of false prophets, like Nc
Kellar, are leading us there. Really
the Democratic party is infected with
a species of socialism, but the Repub-
lican party with such aids as Mr..
Mcclellan is being swallowed up with
paternalism.
The theory of the soldier bonus is
as false to American institutions as
anything could be. 1t is neither Re-
publican nor Democratic. You could
reconcile it with Prussianism, but
not with constitutional liberty. The
United States is indebted to it's own
citizens for twenty billions of dollars
or more, and with the soldier bonus
Congress is undertaking to further
impose upon these citizens by weak
ening national securities and create
heavier tax burdens

FAVOR TARIFF
BEFORE BONUS
PRESIDENT OPPOSES PLAN OF
MeCUMBER- THE REPUBLI-
CAN LEADERS AWAIT RE-
TURN OF LODGE, WHO CAM.
PAIGN IN MASSACHUSETTS.

Washington, June 13.-Senate
Republican leaders who are oppos-
ed to the plan of Chairman McCum-
Der of the finance committee to
sidetrack the tariff bill for the SOL
diers' bonus have the support of
President Harding. The executive,
it was stated officially today at the
White House, regards tariff legisla-
ton as most important and worthy
of the undivided attention of the
senate. -
Plans for consideration Of the
bonus still are very indefinite, but
they may take shape after the re-
turn here tomorrow of Senator
Lodge of Massachusetts, Republican
leader, who has been campaigning
in his home state.
Senator McCumber has given no
tice that he will call up the bill IN
the near future but he has not yet
fixed upon a definite date.
A substitute proposal for the
bonus bill was offered today by
Senator Mc0 0umbers colleague,
Senator Ladd, (Republican) Of
North Dakota, providing for a cash
bonus to be paid by issue Of $2,500-
100000 or less of legal tender
treasury notes to be retired over a
period of rs years out of proceeds
from special taxes on banks and
interest received from the foreign
Indebtedness.
Senator Ladd's plan contemplates
a tax on all banking institutions
having capital stock Of 100000
or more, equal to so per cent OF
the profits in excess Of IL per cent
and all other taxes. Should these
taxes and the interest on the for
eign debt be Insufficient to pay the
annual refunding installments on
the legal tender issued to the VET
Grams the deficiency would be made
up out of the federal treasury.

GRAVE, MEETS DEATH

Greenville, June 13.-Supposedly
making a visit to the grave of her
little sister who was accidentally kill
ed last Monday, Ellen Livingston, IT
year old daughter of B. Livingston
of Donwood, was run over by train
on the tracks of the Southern Railway
a short distance from this city and
her nutilated body found early this
morning. The child slipped from the
home early last night, it is thought,
although she was not missed until
the family gathered around the break
fast table this morning. A search was
at once instituted and the body found
at a local undertaking establishment
by the father when he learned that
an unidentified body had been taken
there.

Street in Abbeville in the Owens
car with Truman Reames when they
met DR.. Harkavy, the new Veterina-

became frightened and plunged
headlong into the front of the car,
breaking the windshield and
throwing DIR. Harkavy on the top
of the automobile. The tenders OF
the car were badly bent and glass
parts broken. DR.. Harkavy was
bruised up and the occupants of the
car received scratches and cuts
from the broken glass. The horse
also suffered from the wreck.

Washington, June 13.-Foreigr
nations War debtors of this
country-have begun submitting to
the Allied debt funding commission

tions in the light of their obligations
to the United States.
1t was said today at the treasury
that two nations have presented briefs
of their fiscal conditions in connec'
ton with the debts to this country
The names were withheld. Their
statements were being analyzed by
the commission, it was explained
and would be very helpful when thf
negotiation for funding Of the obi
cations was begun.
Statements from the other debtor
nations are expected by the commits
sion. So far, it was said, nothing Of
fetal on the debt question has beer
heard from Great Britain since the
formation of the commission, al
though the belief was expressed al
the treasury that special mission te
discuss that nations indebtedness
might be expected at any time.
Meanwhile, it was indicated at the
treasury, funding negotiations viii
begin with France, whose govern
ment has announced the early depar'
ture of special mission to this coun'
try unless earlier activity develop
ments on the part of Great Britain

debt to the United States.
Proceedings of the debt commits
sion, when negotiations with the AL
lied governments begin, will be car
ried on with the usual diplomatic
discretion as regards publicity, it was
made plain at the treasury. Secretary
Mellon was represented as taking the
position that the funding of the AL
lied debts cannot be accomplished
successfully Gin the newspapers" and
that the progress of the proceedings
should only be made known through
official announcements.

sIDY BILL-PREsIDENT MAY
CALL EXTRA SESSION Or
CONGRESS- FIRST CRlTd-
CISM VOICED

Washington, June 13.-Warnmg
by President Harding that he
would feel obligated to call con-
gress in special session if it failed
to take up the ship subsidy bill
prior to adjournment was supple
mened today by White House an
nouncement that the administration
was determined to press for action
now.
The presidents view on the
question of an extraordinary session
was set forth in letter written
May 26 to Chairman Campbell OF
the house rules committee, express
ing the hope that the committee IN
charge of legislative machinery
would open the way for speedy
consideration of the measure.
Copies were obtained meanwhile by
the merchant marine committee
framing the bill--which was ready
tonight to introduce it tomorrow
and Republican committeeman de-
clared the notice served by the
president would rally many Repub-
licans to its support.
1t was disclosed at the White
House that the president could sui
fer no greater disappointment than
that which would come through
failure to put the shipping bill to a
vote. House leaders who have talked
with him on the subject have stated
that he had been most insistent
that the mesaure be taken up, If
necessary, as a straight party issue
believing its enactment Of the
greatest value to the business wei
fare of the country.
While the merchant marine COM
mittee was working rapidly to have
the bill in shape for the house TO-
morrow, Representative Davis OF
Tennessee launched the first mi
nority attack on it, declaring it
"vicious" in its provisions, and
that it gave more power to the
shipping board than "good men
ought to wat or bad men ought to
have"

MARCHING INDIANS
LAY CLAIM TO LAND
LEADER A DESCENDANT OF TE-
cUMSEH.-GOvERNMENT RE-
FUSES TO RECOGNIZE TREA-
TY AND SEND POLICE TO PRE-
VENT ENFORCEMENT.

bennington, Ont, June 13.-A de-
tachment of Royal Canadian Mounted
police was stationed at the National
Park at Point Perlee, seven miles
from bennington, today, prepared to
halt the march of several hundred
Indians who have laid claim to the
park and thousands Of acres of the
best farming land in this part OF
Canada under treaty with the Brit
ish government executed in 1749'
The dominion government, refusing
to recognize the Indians claims, in
structed the mounted police to pre-
vent any encroachment upon the
lands and to arrest the tribesmen q
trespassers.
At the head of the Indian "inva.
sion" was Archie Dodge, a member
of the Pottowatomie tribe and des.
cendant of Tecumseh, leader Of Great
Britain's Indian allies in the war OF
1912. He is recognized as the head
of the tribe, being the great grand
son of the last chieftain. Dodge, who
is 23 years of age, declared members
of his tribe were the original settlers
of the Canadian shores of Lake Erie
and occupied the lands from the time
of the British grant until about 1886
when they scattered to various parts
of Ontario. Several years ago a move
ment was started to reclaim the land
of their forefathers, but they en-
countered government opposition
Dodge and small band were the
first to arrive yesterday. About 300
others are reported en- route.
In addition to the lands, Dodge
told police officers in disclosing the
plans of the Indians, the government
still owes the various tribes 100000
in treaty money. Payment of this
sum, is to be demanded, he said.
So far as the officers could learn
the Indians came with no intention
of taking the lands by force, and such
a course was disclaimed by Dodge,
whose band was encamped last night
on what is known as alienated land,
lust outside the park preserves.

Florence, June 13.-Attorneys for
E. D. Bigham, stated this afternoon
they would appeal from the ruling
