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."
