RESOLUTION PEACE ;
; T
IN ADDRESS ACCEPTING REPUB- 1
L1CAN NOMINATION.
Says Formal and Effective Action
Will Ccme if His Party Controls
Congress.
Marion.Ohio, July 22.?Peace by
a resolution of congress and after 1
that an effort to form an association 1
cf nations that would not impair
Americap sovereignty were promised (
today by Warren G. Harding in his 5
speech accepting the Republican ^
nomination for the presidency.
He declared the time had come to (
recognize "the failure attending as- ^
sumption, obstinacy, impracticability ?
and delay" in President Wilson's at- <
tempt to form a league of nations (
and that a new pathway must be
-frmnrl tn npnr-p nnrf world rrmpprt. i
In receiving formally his party's! <
mandate, the nominee also outlined i
a stand for government by party }
rather than by individuals, declared *
railway employees might well be ac- J
corded a status of public servants, 1
indorsed cooperative marketing for i
farmers and pronounced increased
production the key to a lower cost s
of Jiving. ' 1
;i ne aaaress constituting me wuui- >
date's personal platform in the cam- i
paign was delivered here at the cli- \ *
max of a day of celebration which s
brought to Marion a notable com-, t
-pany of party chiefs and a crowd ofi
many thousands. The plaudits and (
serenading kept the^ nominee the cen-i
tre of a seven hours' reception as!
delegations from many states parad- j
ed past the Harding residence in a.
clamoring cavalcade.
Soon After Sunup.
Soon after sunup the march of the j
first delegation brought the senator;
to his front door step, and after that f
there scarcely was a letup until he j
- - - t /* X
Jeft for tne nonncanon ceremonies ^
on the outskirts of the city at 2 2
o'clock. Old friends' from nearby j
counties mir/} with the representa- ^
tives of poweatul Republican clubs ?
of distant cities in the -procession, <
gay with decorations and blatant with
noise. I ^
At the chautauqua pavilion, where g
the notification took nlace, seats had c
been provided for 4,1)00 and many J
times that number surged about the <
park and surrounding fields, unable i
to get within earshot of the speak- c
ers. The pronouncements of the t
candidate were received with a turn- s
ult of applause and lie was c-neerea i
back to home through crowded p
streets, a tired but smiling man. ' t
Will H. Hays, the national chair- t
man, presided at the ceremony, and ^
Senator Lodge of Massachusetts, who f
was chairman of the Chicago conven- a
tion, formally notilied the candidate fc
of his nomination in a speech rap- h
ping President Wilson's league of na- c
tions and praising the part Senator ?
Harding had taken Tn preventing its v
unreserved acceptance. i:
. Cheers From* Crowd. ! a
Speaking slowly and with a char- t
acteristic gravity, the nominee de- t
livered his declaration of policy in a f
clear, full voice that penetrated far h
into the crowded outskirts of the c
pavilion. Points he wished to drive r
home with particular force he em- s
phasized by aggressfve gestures," and t
several times he got the crowd on its v
feet, cheering, as he nammered with t
clinched fist to land his blows where c
they would telL r
His thrusts at the league of na- a
tions were answered by repeated a
thunderclaps of cheers, but the pas- r
sage the crowd seemed to like best ]
came almost at the end of the hour v
and a half of speaking when he voic- f
ed his humility in the presence of the \
responsibilities of the presidency and
then squaring his broad shoulders, \
added that his confidence in the sup- \
port of his fellow citizens made him ]
"wholly unfraid." c
In his discussion of the league he t
made no direct recommendation for >
" * 1 j:J ,
rejection 01 tne peace treaty, anu uiu ?
not take up in detail the league cove- i
nant. Contenting himself with the t
declaration that the league as con- 1
ceived by the president .was unthink-' <
able; he passed on to state Tris own 1
views of what should be done.
"In the call of the conscience of i
America is peace,'' he said, "peace <
that closes the gaping wound of world <
war and silences the impassional ?
voices of international envy and dis- ]
trust. Heeding this call and know- ]
ing as I do the disposition of congress
I promise you formal and ef- 1
effective peace so quickly as a Re"
publican congress can pass its de- <
oision for a Republican executive to
sign. . . . disposed as we are, the
way is simple. Let the failure at*?- -
? i.?? _ u-i.:
lending assumption, ousimacy, uupracticability
and tfelay be recognized
and let us find the big, practical
unselfish way to do our part. . . .
With a senate advising as the constitution
contemplates,* I would approach
the nations of Europe and
the earth proposing that understanding
which makes us a willing participant
in the consecration of nations to
a new relationship, to commit the
moral forces of the world, America
included to peace and international
justice, still leaving America free, independent
and self reliant but offering
friendship to all the world."
At the conclusion of the speech:
the senator returned to his home but1
several of the visiting delegations not,
content with their first reception call-;
ed again to say good-bye. With Mrs.!
Harding, who had been by the side !
of the nominee during most of the '
morning, he again shook hands with'
the callers. It was his first big day!
of hand shaking sinc?~his nommSlto
^nd he was tired out by the time it |
was over. i

attitude on prohibition as exjressed
irt his speech of acceptance
it -Marion today is " entirely unsatisfactory
to the prohibition party.",
Virgil G. Hinshaw, chairman of the
latiohal committee said today.
"Senator Harding will receive no
support from Prohibitionists because

'On the contrary he seems to invite.

OF BROAD RIVER RBIDGE :

Because of Convenience and
M.? 1 A J
Xi?iurai nu vautm^vo.
Sdltor Herald and News:
Sixty-two years ago I made my
irst barefoot tracks in the sand on
iroad river. I .have continued to
rack along its course ever since (but
lot always barefooted). I think I
enow the stream and the country
Tom Columbia to Shelton as well as
iny man my age and I can not unlerstand
why our new or late geniration
see things so different to
vhat I know them to be. A party
joes, out from Columbia via Monti
:ei!o m ^'airneld county, tnence Dy
>alem church on up through Fairfield
[over the hilliest country God ever
nade) to Smith's ferry, and there
iecided on a location for a bridge f
0 cross over into * Union county,!
tating that it would be convenient
or Newberry folks to come via Calers
or Gilliams chapel to cross this
>ridge to get i:/t Fairfield, a disance
of about 60 miles to reach
Vinnsboro, when the old thoroughare,
the Ashford ferry road, almost
. bee line from Newberry to Winns oro,
is only 37 miles. Let the
lighway commission search the banks
>f Broad river from Columbia to
1 ~ 1 1-ff iL J <-* ?\ln/kA I
MltiJlLUn. XI l/Iiey Cetll UiiU ex yiatc
nth a bjuff opposite each after comng
as close to the bank of the river
.s they are at Strother just above
he ferry, I will give it up. In fact
here would be short trestle work
rom the water edge to zne bluff or
il where the abutment of the bridge
ould rest on a solid formation of
ock where nature seems to have de-1
igned for a bridge. I will donate
he land and show the commission
srhere they can locate the road on
he Newberry side without a hill to
limb. On the Fairfield side ?the
oad has already been changed
.round the hills so that one can run.
t Ford car (from the bank of the
iver) five miles wtfhout changing to
o\v gear (for I did this myself two
veeks ago). If this can be beaten
or a road out from the river anyvhere
I will give it up again.
Now what does Columbia want
rith a road up through Fairfield.
vhere they can cross the bridge at Co \
umbia and come right up the river j
>n the old Columbia road to Spar-1
;anburg and on to the mountains,:
vhile Fairfield could cross the river
it Shelton and reach this Columbia
nnH within a milf of the river. Then
;he counties of Newberry and Fairield
would be linked together at this
central point, and the traffic ply between
the county sites. I wish to
state that I have no selfish motive
in the location of this bridge, but I
3o hope that the commission will examine
and consider this locatipn,
consider the ^nveniences of the people
along this river and if a better
place "be four??*^t the bridge there.
But a bridge at Shelton would be no
earthly use.to Newberry county.
Would the people of Peak and this
side feel like going 20 miles straight
up the river to cross a bridge at Shelton
to get to Winnsboro in Fairfield
county when Strother is 12* miles
from Peak and nine miles from 9helfon.
A blind' man can see that
Strother is the most central point and
those with their eyes half open can
see that Strother offers the narrowest
place in the river and the best
banks for the approaches. So come
down, gentlemen, let me show you
the place. I can give you as good
dinner as Shelton gave the other fellows.
