Herrin. Ills., Sept. .‘!.—Military rule asserted itself here today while the I inquest was being held into the dentils i of six men slain in Williamson oonnty’s 1 latest dash of citizens against citizens, i It was irrevocable word of Captain i Harold Bigelow, in command of the 18 | militia men who have been kept here to i prevent a possible renewal of eivil wnr i fare, that prevented the loeal Ulan from ' appenriug in public in the klan regalia I at the funeral of one of the victims of l last Saturday's clnah between klansmen ! and Sheriff Galligan and his force, and i again it was Captain P.igclow's order 1 that dissuaded the sheriff from coming | over from Marion this afternoon to get i the automobile he had intended to seize 1 Saturday when the clash resulted. { When it became known that the i klansmen contemplated appearing in i their regalia at the funeral of Charles | Willard, Captain Bigelow sent worn to i the klan officers that they would not be i permitted to appear on the streets with | their regalia, but that, they could don i them at the grave and remove their klan 1 garb before leaving the cemetery, i The coroner’s jury adjourned at 3 I o'clock this afternoon until !) o’clock to | morrow morning. ! No testimony of importance was of |i sered by the witnesses who appeared at I I the afternoon session. Lawrence Balin- 1 1 ski. who last Saturday reported that he 11 was attacked by a group of men just 1 1 outside of Herrin that afternoon, “be *i cause I was a witness to the shooting l 1 Saturday*’ told the jury Ihpt he didn't 11 know anything about the outbreak. ji “I asked John Smith what all the l 1 excitement was about," said Balinski, 11 and said Smith answered him. "Oh. ji nothing, just six or seven men were killed." i, Motion pictures can be made at the i rate of twenty-five thousand a second by i| means of a new apparatus advertised by 'I a subdireetor of the Institute Mnrcy in l 1 l’aris.

But under modern condi tions, what with the bfoaeasttng and the machinery it takes to hold a meeting, the oration has to be delivered on schedule whether or not the candidate feela like making it or the public like hearing it. The Labor Day product is three speeches of some importance. If any one has read ail three of them he may agree with us that by comparing the three performances it is possible to ob tain a somewhat clearer notion of how j the minds of the candidates work. I Mr. Ccolidge’4 speech is a recital oC j statistics telling labor how happy tt is. The figures are unanswerable. If labor | does not know that all is well • with it, j Mr. Coolidge at least known it. It .is; exhilirating to be permitted to share Mr. j Coolidge's happiness over the position * of labor. For. Mr. Coolidge is untouelr- j ed by the wilen of any agitator. No- i body has aroused discontent in hie soul. I He linn enough satisfaction with things! exactly as they are to supply content-' inent to the whole labor movement., if ; only his satisfaction could be distributed . in equal portions. He ha 6 more than - enough for one man alone. He is an ' inexhaustible supply of delight in things : ns they happen to be. Hope of better 1 things! There Is nothing left to hope 1 for; the progress of mankind reached its ’ zenith in the Fordney-MeCumber tariff l i and the immigration law. Any eonceiv-1 i able change would bring us down from the pinnacle on which he sits, and we] ‘ ought to sit, eonteniedly. Mr. Davis’ speech is a frank attempt 1 to align the Democratic party for the 1 measures and reforms on which organ ized labor Bets the greatest store just | now. Mr. Davie accepts out of labor’s 1 |«ogram those things which can be 1 squared with his own political convic tions. Ho exercise- the prerogative of 1 the*party leader, which is to lead his party. He thus goes beyond hie plat form in advocating the ratification of the 1 child-labor amendment, the abolition of I the railroad-labor board and in promis ' ing further legislation against the abuse : of the injunction.' He takes notice, and this is very much to his credit, of the “ dangerous propaganda in favor of limit ing the education of the workingman’s • son and of the dangerous movement to > have the public schools monopolize edu* i cation. Nothing he has said in the » campaign shows more clearly the liberal ' ism of hie saint than this interest in educational freedom Mr. Davis' speech was the talk of a 1 man who does not believe that the pow , or of government can be used to reconsti ’ tute society; who believes, on the con trary, that men must work out social changes through voluntary agreements and that the power of government should be restrained. It is the Jeffersonian 1 doctrine. Sir. La Follette's speech should have been the most interesting of the three, , for Mr. La Follette is not hampered ! either by a pary to which he is answer able or by the sobering sense that he , might be elected and would then have' to make good his promises. Mr. La ' Follette is the freest of the candidates.! \ And the burden of his talk is that Mr. I Coolidge and Mr. Davis are Morgan men who would run the United States on be- j , half of the Morgan firm. Thus “the j • so-called Dawes plan is merely the Mor gan plan.” And all the policies of his i two Opponents are Morgan policies. The power of J. 1 P. Morgan & Co. in the banking world is very great. But it is not great enough to be for the Mellon plan with Mr. Coolidge and ’ against it with Mr.'Davis: for the pres ent tariff with Mr.’Cooldige and against > it with Mr. Davis; for the foreign pol ; icy of Mr. Davis. Morgan is great, no : ; doubt, but not great enough to be on both J sides of the big issues of the day. If i S Mr. La Follette's theory is right, J. P. i Morgan & Co. is running one candidate • to raise the dickens with its other can -5 didate. We do not . believe it, and we ; respect Mr. La Follette too much to be -3 lieve he believes such a fairy tale. E Gen. Dawes and the Herrin Klan. ■ New York World. 3 Norman Thomas, socialist candidate’ E for governor of NOw York, charges Gen. 3 Dawes with responsibility for the Klan’s ' 3 riots in Herrin on Saturday. E The country, Mr 1 . Thomas thinks, now j • has a vivid picture of Gen. Dawes j 3 “brave men” in action. Gen. Dawes ; knew that Herrin had been the scene j of terrible Klan warfare; yet he per -3 sisted in declaring in his Maine address : that “if ever a secret organization to 3 uphold law and order is justifiable any -3 where in our country it was justifiable : there.” Mr. Thomas sees this as a ■ logical incitement to Saturday’s violence.; 3 “Whoever gives hope and comfort to; : Klansmen cannot escape a part in the ; ; responsibility for their insane acts.”, 3 Gen. Dawes has gone about the country £ talking of “irresponsible agiators” who ■ preach violence. Mr. Thomas believes 3 him as irresponsible as any of them, and 3 more dangerous because he Speaks with 3 greater prestige. Je are not. prepared to subscribe to ■ interpretation that the Herrin riots I are an answer to the approval General • Dawes gave the Klan in his Maine 3 speech, but we do not believe there is : any doubt that Herrin Klansmen hold E their heads higher today than if Qen.. 3 Dawes had denounced the Klan as Mr. ' 3 La Follette and Mr. Davis have de- E nounced it. Two facts stand out at ■ Herrin. The first is that Saturday’s 3 riots show that the Klan issue in Her- E rin is an issue by Itself; there was no I strike, no union quarrel, no labor con- E troversy here. The second is that this | is the same old Klan and that its leaders 5 will plead justification for lawlessness • until every reputable party and every 3 reputable statesman in tbe country has ; denounced their organisation in word E that can be read one way, and only [lone. I El The World has asked Gen. Dawes, s and urged Mr. Davis and Mr. La Follette || to ask Dawes until an answer is given; || Do you believe that the convicted mob e|leaders of Herrin are brave men and. [I that their acts were in any way justi- j [j, A New York stamp collector bad just | negotiated for tbe purchase of two s twelve-cent Canadian stamps at a cost j of $4,000. The stamps are of the first f Canadian issue, and the fact that they are attached, having been taken from the tower left-hand corner of the sheet, | set of these stamps is in existence- ' ■■ l ■ - ' . | ' f 255H5^vt;\-?:‘ ; i' S \Cv.

Ike Meekins hns been ont ot Ihe I Stale so long that it is no surprise to know that, he hns been nimble to grasp the magnitude of the ehnngos that have come to pass, for that is perhaps the only explanation of the developed extent to whieh he is behind the times and out of touch with the march of progress. He ha.s entered into the campaign ns Re publiean nominee for Governor in man ner that prevailed a dozen years ago. It. was then the custom for the candi date to make a date at t'he “cote” house, being assured of the assembling of enough kindred spirits to make a show and to attract the expected gathering-in of the curious. The court house audience was mainly made up of heelers for the speaker, including a few loud-shoutere and hand-elnppers. Very seldom did the speaker change a vote, but he always gave the crowd satisfaction, because the gathering of the old order would go there to hear somebody abused. They were never disappointed, for abuse of | the opposition was the strong card. That, however, was away back, in the days when the Republican organization in this State amounted to something and when it was necessary for the Democrats to put. up a strong fight, to hold their own. With the passing of the old issue Republicans, however, neces |sit.y for Democratic abuse of the party’s j record in the State passed, for it. has since made no record, because the peo ple would not give it a chance, having had a sufficiency of experience with State Republican Administrations. Hut the leaders of the old party today are 1 sticking to the methods of the past, and doing so, are Closing the doors to Re ! publican recruits. I The best campaigns of the present dny are conducted from the town high i school and the county consolidated pub j lie school, for these institutions have be come the community centers for all social and political works. The school house is the new power in the land. The politician's dough rises there, while it. remains flat in the court house. If there is any Republican in the State who actually has the welfare of his party at heart, he will use his influence in having Meekins called away from the path he is pursuing and get him to talk good I roads and good schools and other Demo- I cratic blessings. The Republicans might not make any votes thereby, but it \yould certainly nrevent them from los ing voes in wholesale blocks, as they w'ill do if Meekins persists in the plan upon which he has made a start-out. Never was a candidate tn this state more out of touch with the sentiment of the people than is this same Colonel Meekins. >' , Since becoming President, Mr. Cooli 'idge has done less traveling' than any ’of his predecessors. Ex-President Wil jliam Taft was the most traveled, having I journeyed 114,558 miles during his j term. NOTICE! Local Tax Election in Mt. Pleasant School District. Township No, 8, Ca barrus County, N.
