C., Jan. 14.?The swing is very steadily toward the Dem ocrats, with increasing momentum. A survey of the newspaper field shows the Democratic press aggressive .and full of intelligent criticism of the shortcomings of the administration,! while the independent papers in large numbers are in similar attitude. The old conservative Republican organs,; 0 ncsily owned uy me ricn. are on me uc fensive. Speaking of these organs, it is interesting to note that the DuPonts have bought up all the papers in Delaware of any size excepting two, they can not get those for the very good reason that a staunch and able Democrat owns then?no other than Willard Saulsbury, who will probably return to the Senate as the result of the election next November. All of the Hearst papers?about a dozen big ones?are attacking, the administration every day. The extensive string ot Scripps-McRae papers?penny dailies are frankly friticlslng the Repubi. cans. ? 1. . DawiiVI / A D6 .New 10TK i eiegrapu, a xxtryuu- i lican paper, refers to the fact that J President Wilson predicted a Democratic victory next November, and adds: "President Wilson is a great man, but it doesn't require a greaman to discover the present drift 01 public sentiment." The Republicans are trying to work j their courage up to the point of enacting a sales tax. Such a tax has some I advantages; among them are these; You can't dodge it. You pay it every time you reach your hand into your pocket, no matter what you buy. You don't have to bother about a savings account, lor this tar will not allow I you to save anything except your old j trousers and your integrity .to heaven. It wil lbe easy to collect, because it will come off of those who have the least influence at Washington? the plain people. Better than all, it forces the soldier to pay his own bonus; he should be happy, for he not only gets the bonus but has the privilege of paying it himself. The only drawback is the name, but the Republicans will 1 doubtless send a name for it that will make it look like a check from Dad. Didn't they even make robbery sound goo.-l by calling it "Protection?" Congressman Begg of Ohio, Repub lican, said on page 1257 of the Coi gressional Record (Jan. 11) "I say U> you men, seriously, the Republican 1 party is pledged to a platform economy, to cut down expenses. E crybody the world over is cutting ' d?>wn expe-ness except this Congress. 1 and we bring in bill after bill to rais salaries when the farmers are con pdled to cut down or go into the * i bankruptcy couri. nuucoi, nui...,. Mr. Begs! Will someone kindly pagt L'iogenes? Postmatscr General Hays, who always buys a child's size hat, is ar ranging to take the finger prints of all depositors at postal savings bank; He has already begun using the system with postal employes. Up to thi? time the system has only been in use to identify crooks and is used at all our best penitentiaries. Bill should j write a brochure on Innovations Calculated to Popularize the Administration. It's easy to be a great organizer when you have all the campaign fund and all the landslide on your side, but when it comes to holding a job repairing some horse sense, it's another thing altogether. Speaking of finger prints, it wouldn't: be a*bad idea to hold conventions every few years to see how far we have become removed from being a free people. The Postmaster General is trying to get Congress to assume the responsibility for stopping free delivery at third (lass offices, for cutting off special delivery service in connection with parcel post packages, and for establishing a surety bond division in the Department. This last is to compete with the bonding companies. And yet: the President pledged himself to di voree the Government from business. ( o 1?r. Duncan in .Marion. Dr. Watson 15.

(iirls Ilasketltall Team Defeats Chew, p terfield Team. I (] On Friday afternoon the girls representing the basketball team of the C'nearw High School invade<l the Chesterfield territory and defeated that aggregation by the decisive score of 26 to 0. Cheraw outplayed Chesterfield in every stage of the game and only on a very few occasions did Chesterfield have an opportunity to fli score. The passing of the centers and cfc guards was especially good and the til forwards rarely missed an opportunity to score frami the field. The first half ended 14 to 0 in favcr of Cheraw and during the second half she added 12 more points to the score Pi and did not allow her opponent to ty make a goal. Although outplayed by Cheraw the 0D Chesterfield girls played a good game Cc and the contest was more interesting than the final score would indicate. g In f pite cf the cold and disagreeable vii weather a number of Cheraw fans drove over to support the team. T! Tie following girls composed th? I tec. i for Cheraw: . A Canters, Viola Sanborn and R it1 Ma"n: r>" Guards, Eva Arant and Margaret Godfrey.

Democratic Committee Selects Stevenson?Represents Democracy at * Pittsburg Banquet Chairman Rouse of the National J Democratic Congressional Committee : has selected Congressman Stevenson of South Carolina to represent the Democracy at a big banquet at Pittsburg on the 18th. Mr. Rouse probably was of the opinion that there i3 no place in the country where a little simon-pure Democracy is more needed than in the home of Secretary Mt Ion, nor anyone better qualified to hand them the real thing than Mr. Stevenson, who long ago made a reputation in Washington for that very thing. He, by the way, is one of th. rapidly growing (men in Congress.

THEY ABE WEARING Goloshes turned In a thick roll around the ankles or worn flapping cpen are getting to be a common spectacle on Fifth avenue and are worn with all manner of clothes and etockings, even chiffon silk ones. Many white dresses have bright facings on their scarf draperies or panel trains. 4 Beaded dresses continue to be greatly In evidence. Pearl embroidery on periwinkle blue was a fashionable evening combination. The "collegiate" style seems to be becoming more popular every day. A walk up Fifth avenue one afternoon revealed the fact that most of the young girls and young women are makin| every effort to resemble this tJype. Sport shoes and woolen hose, rather short skirt and sports coat of either cloth or fur, topped with a felt ai piacea jauuuiy on one sine 01 me head, not forgetting the ever popular wool or silk scarf of color, seem to make up the favorite type of costume. Bobbed hair, and, of course, earrings, are necessary accessories. Cornflower blue crepes are not' only shown for spring but are at present being extensively ^vorn. Drop earrings pt jade and jet alone or in combination are worn for street wear, and earrings of all types at night. Chains of many kinds are wound around the arms those davs instead of being worjr around the throat. ^ A craze for heirloom and all 'antique jewelry is most apparent. Satin hats, particularly the highly polished satins, are beginning to appear. Colored umbrellas outnumber black ones and purple seems the favorite color in spite of a report that blue Is the best seller. J Wide sleeves of colorful chiffon starting at the elbow, from otherwise tailored sleeves in cloth frocks were noted during tea time at the Plaza this week. Novelty metal girdles are replacing those of self material and lending a brighter touch to the all-black coat which is so popular now. * . / t Y H Clocked hosiery in both slllc and ' i ' V wool is being recognized by many , tnore persons now than had bs' noted heretofore. ? Muffs seem to be carried in increasing numbers, with the darker furs in simple styles imost frequently noted. ? ? Long evening dresses are becoming more ami more noticeable, and a striking black velvet gown was worn at Montmartre several evenings aeo featuring the new long musketeer sleeves and a skirt that just cleared the floor at the back while the front was slightly shorter due to the draping at the waist. A stomacher of rhlnestones finished the girdle of the material and the whole effect was most unusual. 1 Softly draped chiffon frocks are worn by a great many of the young girls at the different restaurants and Centres and are usually nr'ade along dm pie lines either trimmed in garI -* 11 .lit of H Atiropo ive tilaA Inf eA/lnnlnty *i contrasting ribbon sash. An attruotive frock in violet chiffon out with i melon neck and trimmed in bands if purple velvet was seen at the Rendezvous, the full skirt of lavers if chiffon crossed in front showing a petticoat of the chiffon. RoseMes of purple velvet formed the girdle and vere used on the skirt. * * White gowns of a more formal type fieavily trimmed in crystals seem to lie popular and are made along straight lines with perhaps some slight draping at one hip which is 'aught with an ornament finished n a long spray of flowers. A great nany of these dresses have trains. A Strange Mistake. . A father crossing the Mississippi iver with his children, called t air atention to the magnificant stream, puvng: "Children, remember the Missssippi is calldd the father of waters >n account of its size." "How strange!" chirped his little laughter. "If he is *he father, they jught'to called him Mr. Sippi." o 1 "It is the spirit of charity, which makes a locality good to dwell in."
