Daugherty's Defenders

Certain Republican newspa-
pers are deprecating and others
are openly condemning Chair
man John T. Adams of the Re
publican National Committee
because of his recent attacks on
Senators who have urged the
removal of Secretary DENLY and
Attorney General Daugherty
from the Cabinet. Chairman
Adams has been using the pub
licity department of the Repub-
lican Committee in broadcasting
his slurs on Senators, including
Republicans, and in defending
Daugherty and DENLY.
The Portland Oregonian,
Republican paper of large influ-
ence in Oregon, Washington and
Idaho, has administered sharp
rebuke to Chairman Adams and
at the same time has expressed
concern regarding the effect
which Daugherty's retention in
the Cabinet will have on Presi-
dent Coolidges candidacy. Says
The Oregonian, in an editorial
appearing under the caption
Daugherty's Day of Grace
LOST
with his usual propensity for
laying down policies for the Re-
publican party, though he is
simply chief engineer of its poll
teal machine. Chairman Adams
of the Republican National Com
mittee presumes to say that the
party should stand behind Attor-
ney General Daugherty and not
allow him to be lynched while
under charges.
"Mr. Coolidge certainly should
not be politically lynched to save
Mr.. Daugherty; if there is to be
a lynching. some other than Mr..
Coolidge should be the victim"
the Oregonian declares.
What is Harry Daugherty by
comparison with President Cool
ldge, especially when the entire
Republican party must be re-
sponsible for the President and
for the men whom he places or
retains in Officer" asks the Ore
gonian.
"Mr. Daugherty has become a
load on Mr.. Coolidge's back,
which the President should dis
charge by casting him off,"
The Chicago Tribune, also an
influential Republican lAewspa-
per, joins the demand for
Daugherty's elimination. In an
editorial entitled, ''Daugherty
Must Go, the Tribune declares
that If Daugherty has the good
OF the Government at heart as
well as his self-respect, he will
relieve the administration of the
embarrassment of his contin-
uance in office"

GEORGIA DOING ITS PART

America imported more farm
products than were exported
from this country last year; that
is something to think about"
says the Florida Times-Union.
Georgia is doing it's part toward
reducing this situation in the good
year 1924 and the time isn't
far distant when Americans will
'be able to get all their food at
home.-Tifton Gazett.

Americas is fully assured another
modern and commodious school
building, capable of caring for zoo
to 500 grammar school pupils il
the beginning this spring Of the
Iong-discussed remodeling of Fur
low schools. The estimated cost
of the new grammar school building
is about $4,000 although it is sus-
peeted that this amount will scarce
Iy be sufficient.
W. II. Bowers, who for some time
has owned the attractive Simmons
residence out near the Agricultural
college and for some months used
as a girls dormitory, has disposed
of the property to w. M. Heron,
taking in exchange valuable rent
ing property over on the north
side. Mr.. Heron and family will
probably reside at the former Sim
mons residence.
Americas civil war pensioners
and those of the county at large,
who receive from the state annually
about $4,000, are looking forward
eXpectantly to the payment of this
years pensions. The money may
come next week, it is said, or il
may be a few days longer. Half tho
veterans of the state have been
paid already and Sumter's honor
roll will be paid with the others.

SNOW

A remarkable machine for re.
moving snow from city streets is
invented by Mrs. Slater, of New
York City. The snow is scooped
up, dropped into a hopper and there
melted by intense heat. The water
flows out the side of the machine
and down the sewer.
Such device, perfected, would
save millions of dollars for cities
which now have to shovel snow into
wagons and haul it to the outskirts
of town.

Do you pay taxes on your furri-

From Washington comes a gov
eminent report showing that the
assessed valuation of all property in
the United States, for taxation pur-
poses, is about 125 million dollars.
That's approximately half of the
national wealth."
So taxpayers, on the average, are
80 per cent truthful in reporting

The Federated Press told last au-

ten the crime, without any evidence
against them, on three brothers, Roy
