He Means Mischief.
f
(Savoyard in The State.)
Our dearly beloved Republican
rrienas are toting a neavim su^yy I
of tribulation than is a fair share for
i single political party. The campaign
of 1916 made it plain that the
S. 0. P. can not get along without its
share of the trans-Mississippi states
In the electoral college, and gradually
the party is awakening to the horror
that if it would ?hold its share of the
trans-Mississippi it must nominate a
Progressive.
Nor is that all. In reality there
ire but two Progressive candidates
for its nomination?Hiram Johnson
ind Herbert Hoover. Wood a
standpatter and Poindexter does not
ittain to the class of the "also rans."
tt need not astonish you, therefore,
if in desperation the Republican national
convention chooses Hoover as
the. one candidate equipped to head j
off "Hell-roaring Hi.'?
In its crusade against President
lVllon? (ho "nartv nf frrcstt mnral '
IT ?*WV|i V..V IK? V o*
ideas' 'enlisted under its banners
more sorts of politics than ever before
got together. There were the
standpatters of the Penrose-Lodge
stripe, the Progressives of the KenKon-Beveridge
stripe, the pro-Germans
of the La Follette-LenrottNorris
stripe, the radicals of the May- 1
yr Thompson stripe, the I. W. W. of
the Seatle stripe, the city slum bol-1
3hevist of the William Randolph
Hearst stripe, and the Sinn Feiners
of the Judge Cohalan stripe
Others enlisted under the Republi:an
banner in this war on Wilson
svere Jim Reed^ of Missouri; Hoke
Smith, of Georgia; Joe Bailey, of
rexast and Bill Bryan, of Nebraska.
rhere* are others of like kidney in
the squad the immaculate anj altruis- j
tic Henry Cabot Lodge marched
through Coventry at the head of.
? *
William Jennings Bryan means >
mischief, and a thrill of victory filled
svery Republican heart when tidings,
lame that Republican voters of both 1
sexes in Nebraska had forced him on
Ihe Democratic party as a delegate
to the San Francisco convention. As
Cxrover Cleveland once so pertinently
remarked, "this is a time for plain |
3peaking." Will the Democratic par-'
Ly allow William Jennings Bryan to
dump on the national convention a I
cart load of treasonable discord? If
not it will be the duty of the Demo-i
cratic convention to sit down on Bryan,
even harder than the Missouri
Democrats sat on Jim Reed the other
day. I
Of course, Mr. Bryan must make a
speech. The Democratic party is a
stickler for the constitution of the
United tSates, and has due regard
ror the eighth amendment of that
precious instrument which forbids
the infliction of cruel and unusual
punishments upon the citizen, and it
Is notorious that to withhold from
Bryan opportunity to make a speech
would punishment cruel in the extreme,
Inhuman and unspeakable.
* *
Here is the matter for the Democratic
convention to grapple with and
solve the very first thing after it
convenes: Shall William Jennings
Bryan run the convention, shall he
boss the Democratic party? His vanity
is simply stupendous, and there never
appeared in our public life a more
selfish individual and a more self
seeking politician. Ther^ is no honorable
compromise. Either Mr. Bryan
must be allowed to run th0 convention
or the convention rebuke Mr.
Bryan. He means mischief and nothig
but mischief.
Recently I read Champ Clark's book
and despite *Ir. Clark's faulty style
'it is a most readable bobk. The last
chapter is devoted to Mr. Bryan, and
a minute analysis is made of tjie motives
that prompted Mr. Bryan's conduct
at Baltimore in 1912. I was at
that convention and kept an eye on
Mr. Bryan, and my opinion then was
and ever since has been identical with
(Mr. Clark's as to Mr. Bryan's motives.
Clark says Bryan went to Baltimore
to get the nomination himself.
Can Mr. Bryan place his hand upon
his heart and fix his eye upon his'
God and deny it? Clark says Bryan
assailed him because he led in the
ballotings and that his assault would
have been made on Wilson had Wilson
led.
I left Baltimore about ten minutes
after Wilson was nominated, and as
I boarded the trolley for Washington
I repeated to myself this thought:
Never before was there shown on any
,lAl? -a V?r\ on n dimh
theatre 01 poimcs uuun mc ?,
a vivid illustration of the engineer ;
hoist by his own petard as was ?een
in the exploit of Mr. Bryan in that j
convention.
* * * i
In the San Francisco convention j
Mr. Bryan will hold a commission j
conferred on him by Nebraska Re-1
publicans and his mission will be to :
promote the fortunes of the Republican
party in the union. If you want;
to see a grin of satisfaction as broad
as Goliath's shoulders and as long as j
Goliath's legs spread over the human
countenance, ask the first intelligent
Republican you meet what he thinks
of Mr. Bryan as a delegate to the
San Francisco convention. Truly the i
owner knows his ox and the crib its J
ass. 1
It is everywhere asserted and nowhere
disputed that Bryan owes his
seat in the Democratic convention to
Republican votefe in Nebraska. Is
the Democratic pa!rty ass enough and
coward enough to suffer this man to
sow the seed of d'scord in the Demo- J
cratic council? That is the question |
for the Democratic party to settle
and settle instanter when the conven- j
tion first convenes.
Mr. Bryan means mischief.

James Woodson Dillon.
Mr. James Woodson Dillon was:
*? T c r> rtor.
DC*rn near .Lillne nuv,a, u, ***+ ~ .
ember the 27th, 1877, and died ati
the Florence Infirmary, Florence, S. j
C., on April 16, 1920.
Mr. Dillon was hapily married to,
Miss Lily Naomi Sneed, of Mont-J
gomery, North Carolina, who made!
him a devoted wife and loving com-]
panion. He joined the Methodist
Church after his marriage and remained
a member until the day of his
death. Mr. Dillon was the son of
Mr. and Mrs. W. S. Dillon, of Little
Rock. After his marriage Mr. Dillon
lived in North Carolina until he
came to Dillon, South Carolina in
1917.
The subject of this memoir was a
man of modest and retiring disposition,
but a man of sterling worth and i
of strong character. He studiously!
avoided all pomp and display, but |
had in him the elements of real j
worth and substantial citizenship.]
Though of a retiring disposition, Mr. j
Dillon made many friends because as:
soon as men learned to know him!
they learned to appreciate his merits.

Kedpath Chautauqua Opens Monday.
The big Redpath Five Day De
Luxe Chautauqua will open here
Monday afternoon in the big brown
tent which will arrive in Dillon
tomorrow.
The attractions which appear on
the Redpath Chautauqua programs
this year are notable indeed.
| The famous band master Bohumir
will appear here on the 3rd day and
give two concerts with his great
band. On the 4th night the delightful
American comedy, "It Pays to Advertise"
will be given by a company
of eight and on the last night Edward
Reno will give a program of
magic and mystery. Three notable
musical companies and three important
lectures are among the other
notable features of the great program.
The Olcot Light Opera Singers will
open the Chautauqua. They will give
a short concert and William Rainey
Bennett, widely known as "The Man
Who Can'' will give his great inspirational
lecture by that name.

Villa Settles Down to Ways of Peace.
Juarez, Chihuahua, Mexico, May
10.?Francisco Villa's days of banditry
and constant menace to all attempts
to establish stable government
in Mexico and to the relations
between this republic and the United
States are ended, according to reports
reaching here. Leaders of the
new revolution displayed visible relief
at the announcement that Villa
had laid down his arms and turned
his men over to General Ignacio Enriquez,
revolutionary commander of
the Chihuahua district.
I Since the revolution swept out of
Sonora with increasing momentum,
what Villa would do or what would
I be done with him had been a source
[of much speculation. It was reported
that, with the best interests of his
'country at heart, he would seek to
be permitted to remain neutral and
settle down on a plantation, and still
later that his offered services to
the revolution had been declined.
Agents of the new regime admitted
that if Villa decided to oppose it he
would constitute the greatest menace
to it.
