A sad commentary upon w I wit liquor will sometimes do to a man | with a brilliant mind. Can't blame j this on the Pope and A1 Smith, Mr. ITpehtlrch. The Governor of Louisana,. on* Huey P. Ixmg, in addition to his oth-j er turbulent acts has engaged in a fist fight with a New Orleans re-' porter. That is a mighty go?..l way: to get publicity; but it would appear to us that this, was well as some other acts of Long, would be beneath the diginitv of the governor of a sor ereign State. j i A twenty months old baby was] killed in its mother's arms, up near.

It isj time officers learned that their duty! is to protect human lives, not to take them; to safeguard the rights of the people, not to break then down. With a majority of around (5,000, j South Carolina, on Tuesday, joined the ranks ot' the Southern Democracy,! that is this year purging itself ofj political charlatans, and relegated | Blease to the political junk heap, nominating former congressman, Byrnes, of Spartanburg to succeed j him in the United States Senate.

Al OajKHies is effecting a crime, merger Chicago, putting in hi.s old enemies as secretaries of various! departments of crime, and the lint is as brazenly given out to the press, and published in the pajK'rs, jus if a newjy elected president of the Unit ed States had announced the pcrs.n- j nel ol his cabinet. The decent parts i of this country arc disgusted with I Illinois and all her works. J low long do you sup]tose Scotland Yard would allow that gang to stay out of prison and unhung, if they darad such doings in Great Britainf Revolution seems rife in 1-ditin America. The example of Peru in ov-j erturning her government, a few weeks ago, lias been followed by the Argentine, where the aged and once popular president, now said to have become a tyrant, has been 1'orced to. resign, by revolt of .civilians, the < army and the navy, and a new gov-j ermnc'.t set up in Buenos Aires by a i military junta, with General Jose Evaristo Uri buru as provisional pres ident, and a list of civilians as mem bers of the cabinet. Tbe urge to re- J volt is causing a tenseness through out I^atin America. The main causes; behind the general movement is said to be hard times, unemployment, and the low prices of cattle and other products of the fields of South Amer ica. When the people suffer, revolu tion usually comes, in one form or another. The State of Illinois is consider bly bedeviled over the prohibition i issue, which, for the life of us, we can't see as an issue in a jiolitieal campaign. Jim Ham Lewis is the regular Democratic candidate, run ning as a wet. Mrs. Ruth Hanna Mc Oorniicl ran in the Republican pri 1 mary as a dry, with the supjMirt of the Anti-Saljoii League. After nomi nation, she somewhat withdrew from her position and stated that she would abide by the decision of the people of the State in a referendum on the matter. The Anti-Saloon Lea gue was not satisfied with her new position and put foiward Mrs. Lol tie Holmon O'Neill, as an independ ent Republican dry candidate. There has been a fued between Mrs. Mc Cdrmick and Mi's. O'Neill. For the life of me, T can't see wbfy candi dates in Illinois, New Jersey, and even North Carolina, can't let prohi i bition alone, and let the battle be i - ?. vir* .\T ,v.- * M'KEE HEADS CO. DEMOCRATS E. Ii. McKee of Sylva was again! elected as chairman of the Democrat, tic Executive Committee, at the meet ing of the committee liehl in Sylva' on Saturday. Miss Jane Coward was, reelected as secretary of the com-; mit tee. The members of the executive com mittec and the party's candidates for office were present at the meet-! ing, and in addition to the election I of the chairman and secretary, plans i for the fail campaign were made. waged between the parties on the vi-; tal questions that really divide I hem,' matters that are of really great: importance to the people. Hut, instead prohibition has to be dragged in, not from sincere motives, but in order to befuddle the minds of tile voters, and draw their attention from real issues, in the hope of catching vot<t?. Prohibition as a political issue is largely a fool trap, and every battle that is waged about it, regardless of the outcome, hurts the cause of tenW Iterance. A?|nare's nest was discovered dowa in Guilford. Serious insinuations were brought agains; the clerk of the su j perior court of Guilford, by If.

Dixon's on the pension list iu ('mil ford, one of whom was reported as dead in 15)13, by Mr. (Gantt, and dropjK'd from the roll and that only one has been paid since that time. All of which goes to show that we should be careful of making charges or insinuations against other people's integrity, frven in the heat ol a poli tical campaign, unless we are abso lutely sure of our ground, and even then it seldom pays/ ? i EPISCOPAL SERVICES ; ?h?
