tempting Its Defense.
Washington, May 26.—The league of
nations was debated In the senate
again today with an Increasing show
of bitterness.
Senator Reed, Democrat, of Mis
souri, attacked the proposal in such
vigorous terms that he aroused re
peated objections from senators sup
porting it and developed a running
debate colored by dramatic accusa
tions and heated reports. The Mis
souri senator declared the league
, would place the destinies of the white
race in the hands of ignorant and
superstitious nations of black and yel
low populations and charged that
many Democrats were supporting it
for partisan reasons.-
In frequent ' interruptions of the
Missouri senator’s speech, Senator
Hitchcock, of Nebraska, ranking Dem
ocrat of the foreign relations commit
tee, insisted that the premises for
these charges were false and that the
inferences drawn were unfair and dan-
—gerous, - He drew 4n-tuw a-reply- from
Senator Knox, Republican, of Pennsyl
vania, who suggested that supporter*}
of the league convenant should read
it before they discussed it.
So heated did the exchange become
at one point that the chair rapped for
order and Senator Reed declared that
Senator Hitchcock had “lost his tem
per.”
The measure which brought the
league issue before the senate was
the resolution of Senator Johnson,
Republican, of California, requesting
from the State Department the full
text of the peace treaty. There was
no attempt to report a vote on the
resolution, on which debate began
last Friday, and the measure went ov
er again as unfinished business to*
come up when the Senate reconvenes
Wednesday.
Without speaking directly on the
Johnson resolution. Senator Reed
made a general attack upon the
league covenant itself as a proposal
to hand over control of the white race
and the civilized world to an assembly
of nations where a majority always
could be brought together on any race
question ini opposition to white su
premacy. He declared support of the
league plan never could be explained
at home by snators from the South,
with its negro problem, or from the
"If a Republican president had
brought in here—if Roosevelt had
brought it here—there is not a Dem
ocrat that wouldn’t have been stand
ing by my side fighting to the last
ditch to rescue the country from a
monstrous and so cruel a thing.”
Southern Democrats particularly
were chided for refusing to recognize
the negro as an equal' at the baTlOt
box, but at the same time accepting
South Africa and other nations where
the black race predominates as mem
bers of the league assembly on an
equality with the United. States.
J 'You think you can control the voi
of the bladk race,” he asserted, "but
^ -retary-qf
West, (with its Chinese and Japanese
problems. Turning dramatically to
his Democratic colleague, he continu
ed:
on any question of ra$e equality you
never will be able to do it.”
To support his prediction that the
black, yellow, brown and red races
would combine to embarrass the white
race, Senator Reed cited the amend
ment offered by Japanese delegates
at Paris to the league covenant guar
anteeing race equality. Although the
amendment failed, he said, the Japan
ese delegates reserved the right to
bring it later before the league for
determination.
He also quoted from a periodical
published by negroes in this country
a passage declaring a league of na
tions or some other “international
power” to be "absolutely necessary
for the salvation of the negro race,"
in view of treatment of the negroes
in the United States and South Africa.

PRESCRIBE THE
NEW CALOMEL
Of all the medicines in the world
doctors prescribe calomel most often
and depend upon It most universally.
There must be a good and sufficient
reason—what is it?
If you will study the doctors’ books
you will find that the medical authori
ties prescribe calomel for almost ev
ery disease. The reason i» that calo
mel is the greatest and only thorough
system-purifier. It makes the liver
active, drives out the poisons from
the stomach, bowels and kidneys and
thereby purifies the blood. Calomel
puts the entire system in the most
favorable condition for Nature to ex
ercise her recuperative power. That is
why he prescribes calomel so often.
The new kind of calomel, called
“Calotabs;'” is refined and purified
from air of the nauseating and dan
gerous qualities of the old style -calo
mel and is rapidly taking its place, for
it is more effective than the old style
calomel as a liver-cleanser and sys
tem-purifier. One Calotab at bedtime,
with a swallow of water—that’s aR.
tesF
No salts, no nausea, nor the slightes
unpleasantness. Next morning you
awake feeling flne^with a hearty ap
petite for breakfast Elat what you
please. No restrictions of habit or
diet. ———
Calotabs are sold only in original,
sealed packages, price thirty-five
cents. Recommended and guaranteed
by druggists everywhere. Your money

Columbia.—The Columbia Chamber

Shealy, chairman of the railroad' com
mission, says:
“We desire’ to call the attention of
the commission to some very deplor
able conditions existing at the union
passenger depot here from which the
public suffer.
“Our observation Is that the signs
directing travellers to trains and
tracks are not placed as they should
be. Very .frequently they are not to
be seen, anywhere except in a pile
near the steps, undistributed through
out the track floor. These signs should
be placed conspicuously and the
tracks should be numbered so that
passengers would have no difficulty in
getting on the proper train. Another
thing is the walkway is generally so
crowded with express trucks that it is
with great difficulty that passengers
can get to and from the coaches. It
seems to us that with a little judgment
this difficulty could be avoided. The
sanitary condition throughout the
building is very bad. This is particu
larly true of the closets, which in
their present condition are a menace
to health and should be looked after
immediately.

Death of Alfred Aldrich.
Anderson.—The death of Col. Alfred
Aldrich at a hospital here marked the
passing of a beloved citixen of Soath
Carolina, a patriot of the state and a
true gentleman of the old South. Col-
■nnnl iHiirirh had hn«n a pntinnt fit the
hospital for the last month and his
death Is the end of a general break
down, following a period of ill health,
lasting several months. Colonel Aid-
rich passed his 76th birthday. He
was known over the state as an im
portant but not as a conspicuous
figure.
Sure to Be Discharged.
Camp Jackson.—“We are going to
be discharged by the 15th of June,” is
the assertion of nearly every enlisted
man of Camp Jackson. No amount of
proof to the contrary will be accepted.
They know that they are. Camp head
quarters has made no announcement
that the emergency personal now sta
tioned there is to be discharged at all.
Within the past few days the ru
mor has been strengthened by men
receiving mail from home saying there
was an order to discharge all emerg
ency men now stationed in the can
tonments. Newspapers in various
cities have been quoted in the-letters.
Dozens of men have had these and
have lost no time in spreading the
glad news. A man usually believes
what he wants to believe with little
proof. Consequently as the recruits
continue to fill the organizations it is
natural that someone should be d!»-
charged. ,
It vviil be interesting to the people of Clinton to know that the A. C. Tuxbury Lumber Company whose
ment appears above and whoso advertising campaign is covering the South are one of the customers of Jacobs ai
pany of this city. The entire advertising campaign including preparation of copy, sales anibadvertising plan, deal}
photo-engraving, electrotyping and printing are handled by Jacobs and Company, the advertising department of thfe
