The Republicans cannot be denied the iight to f?ive thanks that it was no worse. Tennessee's return to the Democratic fold once more makes a ''Solid South." From a Republican majority of 165 in the national house of representatives to 15 is some slashing. What has become of the "White Republican Party" of the South? Is it hibernating, or just "blowed up?" The Dema on last Tuesday turned a trick on the Reps. The Keps turned themselves in by the aid of some millions of mis. guided voters, and now the D'ems by the aid of some millions of voters whose eyes have been opened have turned the Reps outj Hurrah! won the contest. When nation allow jealousies and selfishnes to get the upper hand of then: they, like individuals, must pa the penalty. President Harding has bough the Harding farm, at or near th village of Blooming Grove, Ohh It is rumored that he will iuak it his home when he retires frjoi office. He has taken time by 1th forelock. He has doubtless see the handwriting on the wal Two more years will doubtl^s find Warren Gamaliel a studpc of nature on his farm.

Miss Alice helpi her party do nothing and wi many other Republicans got tl "pmk slip." Only a few days ago the ne^ came over the. wires that a t< rible'coa! mine explosion had ( cur red in Pennsylvania taking toll of 50 or more lives. Now ( news comes from far off Chile South America that an ear quake had blotted out 1000 liv? - Disasters come so often in th< c days, that while they stir en tions in the breasts of people, 1 calamity is soon forgotten * but faintly remembered, and 1 world moves on as if nothing an appa'ling nature had happ ed, V W&: ... > HAS HE KEPT HIS WORD? If we mistake not while on one of his Southern trips President Harding assured the people of the South that h e would not force negro office holders on them. Now conies the news that Walter E. Coheii, a negro politician, has been given one of the highest salaried federal offices in the South. It is comptroller of customs with headquarters at New Orleans and the salary is $5000 per annum. This leads us to ask several questions. 1. What is the South to the Republican party except to use in a political sense? 2. Has the South ever received from the Republican party anything, directly or indirectly, worthwhile? 3. What do some men care for their word? We might ask many more pertinent questions just along simi lar lines but it would be a waste of time ancl space to do so. i A president who 'would appoint Tolbert and a negro politician of 30 years standing over a people who are the "salt of the eai;th," so far as a race is concerned, is surely not the president of the whole people. Thursday, November 30, is Thanksgiving Day. We, as a nation; we as individuals have jnuoh to be thankful for, and the individual who is not thankful t^jGhid and who is hot willing to^ qhpw his thankfullness in more mere words is not deserving- of even the least of God's favors. Our Thanksgiving Day, like our Christmas, is fast drifting into a mere form where there is-no spirit.

Hon. W. F. Stevenson was presonted, for he needed no intro duct ion, by Mr J. F. Leppard iuL a few appropriate words. Mr Stevenson delivered a splendid address which was appropriate to .the . occasion. He reviewed. the record of the party now in power showing clearly that the; record was one of service to the! few who control the )>i|r buslfleSf interests of the country; how the. .party had neglected the World War veterans by refusing to put across the bonus bill. The ad-' dress was full of practical goo&j sense and appealed to the large' number of people present. | - After the address a splendid free barbecue was served ori the grounds and all enjoyed the well' cooked beef and pork.
