MIK I'ltOUXKJi IN MKXK'd,
General ObrcKon's statement that if
til? United States troops retnaiu in
Mexico it may he impossible to hold
the Mexican people and soldiers In
restraint 1B the most disturbing factor
in the present situation. There Is no
question ns to what the outcome
would be If the Carranza government
were unable to check resentment and
control the populace and the armed
forces, even though the government
promised to cooperate with the Unit
ed States Generals. The authorities
ut Washington would be compelled to
contend not only with the difficulties
created by the pursuit of Villa bandits
but also with armed opposition on all
sides. The prospect would be far
from reassuring.
There ls reason to believe that Gen.
Obregon is raising a false alarm.
Judging from what appror to be re
liable reports, the Carranza govern
ment Is not strongly Intrenched in the
favor of the people. If ft does not suc
ceed in Inducing President Wilson to
withdiuw the troops Carranza'? hold
may yet bc- further Imperiled. The
United States .authorities cannot be
oblivious to such possibilities. The
question, then, is whether the troops
shall remain and continue the pursuit
or shall bo called to avert a war of
Intervention.
The lack of rcaponulblc government
In Mexico has brought lia face to face
with another situation from which we
can emerge only with humiliation or
by plunging into grave danger.
om YOUNG M KN.
A contemporary recently made thu
statement that a city ls made by Itu
young men and that thc city it repre
sented could boafit of having a finer
lot ot representative citizens among
the younger' set than uny other com
munity of like Elze in the country.
The writer of that article knows very
little of Anderson.
No: that an Insurance agent, any
moro than a man of any other profes
sion, ls more wlde-awnko, progressive,
or a better hustler than the othsr fel
low, but the on-the-jpb spirit eviden
ced by this class of young men, note
worthy here, ls worthy of more than
pnselng comment.
It developed recently that a family
of ordinary. means, consisting of some
three or four children, the father and
mother and a dependant relative, de
cided to locate in Anderson. By
chanco or otherwise the head of the
family met one of Anderson's most
alert and pleaslng-ot-nia.aacr life In
surance agents, and before many days
had passed the acquaintance grew In
to friendship. The stranger in town
told the agent ho had carried moro
than oho insurance policy at different
times during. euvly married life, but
failing to make emis meet as he
should and receiving but little en
couragement from the agent who had
collected his premiums when they fell
duo, he had dropped ? hiB insurance
Insofar as Insurance ls concerned he
had stricken the word from his vocab
ulary, and to this progressive young
And ors on la ii just referred to is. due
the fact that he has again Injured his
life, given .his family . needed protec
tion, and from the contagious smile of
success, advancement and general bus
iness tl!;e demeanor of the young I
aurnnce agent, his life has contracted
a new Impetus to do things and reach
the goal in the business world he has
always aspired to and heretofore been
denied because of the lack of proper
environment of tho do-thing* spirit.
The work this clty'B young mcu
.hayo done.in tho way of advancing
tito movement for the Atlanta-Ander
son railway Is one noteworthy incident
and possibly duo greater commenda
tion than anything'of recent date. It
fitly illu? tm tes their progressiveness.
W i could .mention scores of caaes
whe?* tho yourig-bloods havo taken
tho lead in things leading to civic, re
ligious and social Improvement. An
derson's'young mien are the cream, of
her citizenry and she should bo, and ls
justly proud of. them.

eral rulo all reporta concerning cam
paign meetings ate either true or un

Anderson ls rapidly developing Into
a city and it may he there are among
her citizens some who want to know
whether or not it could be made to
grow faster, or how long lt will con
tinue to grow at tho present rate, and
so on und so forth, etcetera, and then
some. You know you can't always

Since there seems to be doubt in the
minds of Rome in regard to the base
Il gama between Auburn and Clem

played on Friday afternoon of this
week on the Cater Athletic field. This
will doubtless be a hotly contested
game.
The clean-up campaign did not end

\ SENSATIONAL SIDELIGHT
TO TIDWELL 'MURDEH CASE
(CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE.)
Violation of tho .Mann act for Immor
al purposes. Certain provisions o.f
the'act stipulate that where a hus

Tldweil was out on a ten thousand
dollar bond at the time of Ids arrest
and was being sought for at the time.
He expressed his willingness to re
turn here and begin serving his sen
tence of soven yearn, but the federal
authorities would not release him ur
til the federal law had taken' Ii
course. Since he pleaded guilty, to
day to violation of the act, another
cloud has formed over the situation
here. ,
Sheriff Hendrix Rector last night
received a telegram from the United
States marshal a : Pensacola advis
ing him that he could get Tldweil.
The sheriff today communicated with
Gov. Manning to secure a requisition
for hlu extradition -from Florida and
tho chief executive Informed the sher

However, he will now await fur
ther instructions from Pensacoda ah
lo what the government plans to do
abott'' .the defendant? If they deem
lt advisable for Ttflwell to serve the
federal sentence first he will not be
brought here for some time. The
offense Is regarded by officials as ver>
gravo and lit hv not improbable that a
heavy sentence will bo imposed. .
