Thursday, June 3,1920 It must be a source of considerable annoyance to the enemies of President Wilson to discover at this late date that he is not pro-British. It * really appears, after all, that the president and the entire Democratic adminisration throughout the war were only pro-American. This is very disconcerting; for was not the administration looked upon by the . Republicans as being a branch of the | British government? Why, most as- < suredly; and furthermore, the Re- ) publicans have consistently refused : to ratify the treaty of peace and the ( league of nations covenant because of alleged undue consideration for the < rights of Britain. J Senator Smoot, of Utah, and the ! others of his ilk, display their usual , narrowness in a marked manner when i they object to the placing of the names of Lee and Jackson in the Ar- * T ' lmgton memorial. -l\oi umi ucc ui ^ Jackson would care to be there, if it , were left to them, but if greatness is < a requisite to a place in the memorial, i there are none more deserving than 1 these southern heroes. One day the ] ] Smoots and Maddens and others of ^ this kind will deplore the fact that ( the blind south will remain solid, and t the next will make asses of them- ^ selves by speeches like they recently made on the south. Of course the j south is solid and will remain so as j long as the north and west will rec- ] ognize pin heads as representative 1 of the north and west. It is the north that makes the solid south solid. Nobody but an ignoramus or a j fool would make statements like those 1 made some days ago in congress. We do not exactly follow the rea- ] soning of Vice President Marshall 1 ( that a representative in congress Should vote for what he considers the < best interests of the people regardless 1 ' of the wishes of his constituents. This 1 statement is credited to the vice pres- * * ( ident in regard to the censure by the , Southern Baptist convention for his i remark that if they had been voting ( behind closed doors not more than 1 twenty senators would have voted for prohibition. There is no doubt in our v mind that prohibition was enacted be- 'c cause congress considered that the - people demanded it, and not Decause < the senators personally favored pro- i hibition. We do not think it any re- flection on the senate for voting as the senators thought the people would have them vote, neither can we see any reflection on Mr. Marshall for saying so, although we do not agree with his position in the matter. The vice president explains, however, that he does not use liquor himself, does not serve it in his home, and would be very glad if nobody else used it. It appears that the Republican investigation of presidential candidates' pre-convention expenses will act as a boom'erang. There appears to be no doubt about it that the in ? vestigation was born In a spirit of vengeance?trying to "get" something on the Democratic patty. So far the only slush money that has Deen rounci?ana mere seems 10 oe plenty of it?is in the Republican party. Particular attention has been given, however, to a rumor that McAdoo was spending ten million dollars' to get he nomination. Instead of getting in behind the ten millions, ^ the investigation has disclosed, apparently, that McAdoo has not spent a cent; in fact has forbidden the spending of money on the part of his friends, and further that he has steadfastly refused to seek the nomination. Money, however, has flowed like water for General Wood and Governor Lowden, and Senator Johnson ' has spent a trifle?a couple of hun-j dred thousand or so. Wood's expense account, so far ascertained, is a mil-! lion and a quarter, and Lowden's well j over half a million. That the Republican candidates are trying to buy their way into the white house cer tainlv is the way it looks. Will the American people stand for it? -Mayhe. They stand for a whole lot some times, but it appears at this time that the Democrats have the edge on the presidential outlook. The Republican candidates?the leading ones? are already set to cut one another's political throat, and a split seems certain. If the Democratic cards are played well, the game is theirs.

Ellis Smith, formerly of the Columbia club of the South Atlantic league, made his debut in the TriCounty league Tuesday afternoon, pitching in a Bamberg uniform against Barnwell, and easily shut out the latter team G to 0 at Rhoad park. Smith was never in danger and was master of the Barnwell team at all stages, only one man reaching third and he couldn't even throw a fright into the locals. Smith walked one man, allowed four widely scattered bits, two of which were very, very scratchy, and caused 13 Barnwell hitters to strike where the ball wasn't. He was well received by Bullock, who caught a nice game, and each battery man poked out a peach of a hit in the pinches, driving in runners, Bullock's ?oing for two sacks. It was simply a' case of too much Smith, and this boy in his first effort sure appears to be i honey. But while Smith was pitching himself to the heights of glory it must also be said that his mates ?ave him gilt edge support, not an jrror being recorded against the home earn. And at the same time Bamberg garnered no less than 12 safeties | * j j ~ P - tt'^-.r titv> r\ cram tuc uyiivyrj ui uhd jjuuj, **av/ was trying to pitch for Barnwell. At least Umpire Burch announced be-1 fore the game that he "was going to pitch, so we'll give him credit for trying, although if anybody ever told tiim he could pitch they were either humoring him or making fun of him. Lack of space forbids a review of tiow the runs -were made, but good; Patting accounted for most of them. | Hale and Price look best for Barnwell. The Bamberg team hit well | ndividually apd collectively. Dud-| ley Sanders, paying his last game )f the season at Rhoad park, put up i fine exhibition, while the perfect j stops and rifle shot pegs of "Gyp" Rentz at third were beautiful to look lpon. If this boy plays 1111 games ;his summer he might make a couple )f errors, and he goes after all of em too. The one feature, however, vas the twirling of Smith. He workjd like a Trojan all the way, and es)eeially in the ninth did he cut them odse with a string of fire behind ;hem. He not only has a job, but a lome with the local fans, who wel:ome him and his estimable wife, a Don't raise tobacco for the worms. 'Kill 'em." We have the "PizepL." tentz & Felder. #!
