L W??FfllENO OF CAMPCN The rociiiil transfer of the Spring dule Race Counts property from Krueut L. Woodward to Harry I>. Klrkover prompts us to do Home | thinking and remembering about K. L. W. -about what a peering* friend lie bus beeu to Camden during liih yearn of association with thin city. About neveil yearn ago he first caiue to Camden and ulmoat immediately, unobtruHively as always, selected it uh liih winter home. We feel that thin fact in in the nature of a mutual compliment both to the man und our city. To iih Camdonltes bin uelectlou of Holly Hedge uh hia winter home appearu to he Ideally meet und proper, for more and more an wo have become to know thu man belter we luive been impressed with how uniquely the] character of the home epitomizes Hie character of the man. The home in unoHieuiutiouH and yet luxurious, modest In outward appearance yet built of the fluent timber, hidden from the public wuyn yet generous in hospitality all a perfect bleud with the man. A man's deedu are the only true criterion by which one may Judge IiIh cliariK icr. ? Through IiIh deedu we feel that we know thin man. Through bin sympathetic iuluroHt with everything connected with our community life, through IiIh ready support of all the worthy undertaklngH of the community during the puHt seven years, His generous gifts for the public good have taught us to know him whether we know him personally or not. Almost every worthy under' aklng has had his support and many have been realized only through his support? witness the Airport, one of the finest in the country for a town the size of Camden and the Sprlngdale Kace Course, reputedly the finest in the country. The latter has attracted thousands of persons to visit Camden, bringing up to us the cream of the sporting people of America and affording Caimlenites themselves unexcelled enlertaiiimeut of the kind that has been traditional in this community for more thun a century. Now lliut we can legitimately do so with stuff of thu finest quality let us propose a toust "to E. L. W.?May lie long be with us." THE LOUISIANA TRAGEDY The attempted assasinatiou of Huey Long, political boss, unique in American history in the absolute power obtained as well as in tin4 ruthless use of that power, should surprise none who could visualize the manner in which the minority in Louisiana has been suppressed by the iron baud of dictatorship. That passions kindled years ago and constantly fed by the dictator's successive measures for the nullification of representative government and for the abrogation of the constitution of the state, have not before broken the bounds set by civilization ami shocked the country by u return to Passion's primitive methods, furnishes the surprise. In Kentucky, with its wilder regions and with a large element of its people less schoolwil in self-restraint, the methods of this dictator would not have been endured for six months. No thug of the underworld of New Orleans was hired to do Long to death. A young professional 111*111. probably without the knowledge of his friends, took upon himself the terrible office of executioner. Hut belore taking action be knew that whether he succeeded or failed, his life would be forfeited, lie could not have hoped to assault Long surrounded hv heavily armed bodyguards. He was not a politician, officeholder or office seek* r. It was a shocking tragedy. Hut rr.wr? . >**?" * imYik iife rue fuefs iliai ieit iii it. Stupclving is tin- fact that after a hundred and fifty'years of "selfgovernment" miller the (lag of the American union; under the constitution of the state and the United Stales, there should he a dictatorship in any American state where the * *?1111sj are* controlled, the constitution meaningless and the opponents of the dictator hopeless of justice!?Columbia Slate.
