The People believcs'that Mr. Brad

are quite'fctire that many members of

Resolutions of Respect.
The latest version of ^When Dido
found Aneas would not come, she
wept in silence- and was- di-do^dum,”
ir as follows: "When Congress found
that Albert would not come, it raged
in public and was Teapot Dome.”
German Physchology.
Since the above was put into type,
the House of Representatives has
adopted , a resolution, after spirited
debate, withdrawing the invitation to
Senator, Reed. During the discussion
he was ^branded Jis & ‘’traitor,” one
who was “disloyal” and one who
“should have been placed with his
back to the wall during the war.” ’
The People > congratulates the
House on its action and is glad to
note that Barnwell County’s repres
entatives heartily supported-the*, reso
lution to withdraw the invitation.
Death of Mr. J. A. Hair.
The German mind moyfes in a mys
terious, way its blunders to perform!
For a day or two following the
death of Woodrow Wilson, the Ger
man embassy in Washington, acting
presumably under orders .from Bei
lin, refused to fly its "flag at half-
mast in token of respect to the mem
ory of one of the greatest men ' the
' world has ever produced. Ft \v is
not until public opinion voiced its
protest and u small American flag
was planted on the lawn of the em
bassy that the German government
awoke to the fact thr4 if had made
another of its many physchologiciil
blunders that the flag was lowered to
half-mast.
There is too. much maudlin senti
ment iir this country for a defeated
people whose ambition was to rule
the world with the mailed fist of
militarism and lo grind civilization
under the iron heel of Prus-ian bar
barism. Even jit the time of. the flag
episode, efforts were being made in
this country’ to raise, fiilnls for the re
lief of starving German children.
Bytter that they die in the innocence
of infancy than be raised up in hat
red as a future menace to our own
children.
This latest incident would seem to
indicate that "The Hymn of Hate”
is still being played minus the soft
peddle.
