C.. as mall matter of the second class. THURSDAY. MAY 26, 1921. Old George Harvey, with his apologetic looking face, may be even worse than Mr. Stevenson says he is; but somehow we can't dislike him any more on account of the family history he related in Charleston. The pity was he did not have about a million grandfathers and uncles scattered around conveniently in the North where they could make most trouble for the enemies of the South durincr the unnlenHnntnefts nf fh*? early '60. We shall revise our attitude toward?George's kinsfolk. Henry Ford lands heavily in a recent number of his Dearborn Independent on the people of this country who are in favor of unrestricted immigration from Europe and whQ find it necessary in defending their position to rely on the old threadbare argument that all of our ancestors were originally immigrants. See Henry stuud 'cm up to knock 'Am down: "We may admit most or what the spokesmen tell us. too?the spokesmen who hre more interested in other races than they are in America. We may admit, for instance, that this country was made by immigrants. So it was. The pipneers were immigrants. They came to a wilderness and made it blossom. They came to a bleak and stormy coast and filled it with commerce. It is impossible to honor them too much. We ought to be frauk enough, however, to see that not* all our modern immigrants are of pioneer quality. It is one thing to come to a country to help make it, and quite ailother thing to come to a country as to a ripe tree to pick it. There was no immigration problem in the United Slutes so long as immigrants came to help make the country. ... A very large proportion of those who come now are brought; they are transported as literally as an army is; they do not form that surging forward of the free and independent portions of other peoples which characterized our former immigration tidal waves. . . . This is one of the conditions that make the immigration question: we are importing something else besides people and the danger of disease; we arc importing dangerous and false ideas?dangerous because false." In a speech at Columbus, Ohio. Monday, Mr. Bryan called atten tion to the fact that the credit' for cutting down the standing ariuy froiu 175,000 to 150,000 belongs to the Democrats, who succeeded in their commendable undertaking in the face of the opposition of the Republican organization in the house of representatives. If there is anything this country doesn't need it is more soldiers, and more battle- j ships. Mr. Bryan is sometimes wrong on public questions, but in all the utterances we have seen attributed to him recently he has spoken for the kind of government this country needs. He is right in advocating a small army j and he is right in advocating disarmament. There is 110 reason why the United States should continue to build big battleships. If this government continues to attend to its own business, and the presumption is that it will, such a program of naval expansion as the senate is proposing means a useless expenditure of tax mqpey the people are finding 9 ^ IHhhd?IM&< 1. i it hard to pay. It is to be hoped that every Democrat in the aenate will support the disarmamentamendmen to the naval hill proposed by Senator Borah. It would be a godsend to the people of this country if the^enate of the United States could be abolished. If the senate does anything more than add to the appropriations of the house of representatives the country is doing "the most august body 011 earth'' a great injustice in believeing that the extent of its labors. If this government ever blows up, the senate will be responsible for the explosion. RECORD IN ARMY. The Times is requested to reprint from its issue of December 19, 1900, the following biographical sketch of the service of the late W. F. Patterson of Fort Mill township ill the Confederate army: " ' I was 16 years old in April.1862, and in November of that year I emereu me army or the confederacy as a substitute for my father. I was first sent to C'amp Hampton, in Columbia. x and remained there about two weeks, during which time I was assigned to Company I (Capt. Bowen. command in g), Th ird regiment of reserves. From Camp Hampton I was sent to Pocotalligo, this State, to guard the coast and was stationed there until March. 18G3. when 1 joined Capt. .1. A. Berry's command. First South Carolina cavalry, at Hamilton's crossing. near Fredericksburg. Va.. at which place 1 remained until April 18G4. 1 was in no regular engagements, but did some hart! picket duty in the ice and snow and almost starved on several oeoccasions. In April I was sent hack to the coast of South Carolina, between Charleston and Savannah; stayed there until June; was then taken to .lames Island, i where 1 was in a few skirmishes and was a target all the time for bombshells, hut I never received a wound. I stayyd on the island until November and then went hack to Coosawhatc.ilie, near Savannah. and remained tliyre until Gen. Sherman's raid. I was sent on ahead of him to Branchville, where 1 was taken siek and sent to the hospital at Columbia; stayed there a few days, but upon ' eing Sherman's army Hearing the city 1 concluded to take a walk one morning and never retimed. 1 was quite weak, but made my way home. Being without a horse, I remained at home a few days, then struck through North Carolina, got a horse and went to Bennettsville. There the ust fighting was done. 1 was on detached service at the time, hunting up forage for the army and driving cattle, and remained at that place until Qen. Johnson | surrendered at Greensboro, in April, 1865. Prom there I made my way to "home, sweet home." W. P. Patterson. I Rub-My-Tism kills pain.
