BEGIN PLANTING COTTON.
Work on Orangeburg-Bamberg High
way rrogresses.
Cope, March 14.?Last week the
following farmers made a start on
the 1921 crop by planting some cotton:
F. E. Cope, W. M. Hughes, H.
N. Antley, and J. D. Croft for Glenn
W. Cope and F. E. Cope says he is
practically speaking, planting corn.
As the weather continues warm and
springlike others are getting ready
to put in their cotton as soon as possible
so as to be ahead of the boll
weevil.
The oat crop generally is looking
well and so are vegetable gardens.
Mr. Carroll, the contractor on the
state highway from Orangeburg towards
Bamberg, is now working on
this side of the Atlantic. Coast Line
railroad, about a mile and a half
from Cope and will soon join that
section of the road that is being
built by J.. Fisher Cleckley across
Snake swamp. The weather of late
has been favorable for such work
- and good headway is being made.
Baptist Church Notes.
A large audience was present last
Sunday to hear Rev. Maxcie G. White.
Brother White and his wife have
been serving as missionaries under
the board of the Southern Baptist
convention for about six years. . They
are located at Bahia, Brazil, and are
at home on a furlough. Bro. White
spoke at Cope in the afternoon and
here again at night. His talks were
impressive and well received. The
two churches gave him $100 toward
the purchasing of a printing outfit to
be used in his work. Mrs. White
spoke to the ladies in the afternoon.
Qute a number heard her with great
pleasure and profit.
The crowd at prayer meeting last
Wednesday night was small on account
of inclement weather, but those
wrho were there certainly got a vision.
It was a wonderful meeting.
The meeting was in the hands of the
officers and teachers of the Sunday
school.
' ,
A great rally meeting is to be held
at Orangeburg on the 23rd of this
month, beginning at three in /he afternoon
and continuing through the
evening service. Dr. E. Y. Mullins will
speak at night. Dr. Mullins has spent
some months in the war district in
Europe studying conditions. His message
will be well worth hearing. It
is hoped many will go from our
church.
Not less than 225 in the Sunday
school next Sunday at ten o'clock is
the aim. Help to realize it.
The sermon subject for the morning
will be, "A Bonfire Built of
Books." "God's Message to the Unsaved"
will be the subject for the
evening. Young people meet at seven
p. m.
A special invitation is extended to
the members of this church to be
present next Sunday. All visitors welttri

come. u.
LANDIS, DIAL AX I) WELTY.
Triangular Fight Among the Notables
With Nobody Winner So Far.
Senator Dial, of South Carolina,
last night accepted the defi issued by
Ferderal Judge K. M. Landis, of Chicago,
and announced that today he
will launch a fight in congress for impeachment
of the judge. These proceedings
will be based on the fact that
the judge released Francis J. Carey, a
bank teller, who confessed to the em|
bezzlement of $96,000, which he buri
ied in his mother's yard.
Judge Landis stated that as the
bank in which Carey was employed
paid him only $90 per month, an inadequate
sum, it was responsible for
his default.
Judge Landis intimated that Sena
tor Dial's threat made in the senate
on Saturday was due to the fact thai
he, Dial, is a banker and has only the
interests of the banks at heart. He
defied the senator to attempt to impeach
him.
Dial's Statement.
"Whether I am a banker or not
has no bearing on the case," said
Senator Dial last night. "I may be
one thing and may be another. I
merely want to say that I am proud
of what I am. Anything Judge Landis
may say cannot make me less
proud."
"In an address before the American
Legion at Des Moines Saturday night
Judge Landis declared that the senator's
"background" led to the attack
upon him for "giving fair treatment
to a $90-a-month bank clerk, who in
a month, handled millions."
The "background" to which Judge
Landis referred is set forth in the senator's
official biography published in
the Congressional Directory. It lists
the senator's business connections as
! follows:
Dial's Record.
"Member of the law firm of Dial
and Todd, Laurens, S. C.; promoter of
the Peoples Loan and Exchange Bank,
Laurens; organizer and president of
the Enterprise National Bank and the
Home Trust company; organized and
interested in other banks and financial
institutions; Laurens Cotton Seed
Oil Mill; Laurens Glass Works; Laur-!
ens Cotton Mills; Laurens Bonded
j Warehouse company; Georgia-Caro|
lina Power company; Ware Shoals
| Manufacturing company; Reedy Riv-I
er power company and Sullivan Power
company." ? *
Senator Dial is reputed to be one of
the wealthiest members of the senate.
Stand by Welty.
"Judge Landis must either divorce
himself from the flesh-pots or get off
the bench?h? cannot serve God and
Mammon!" Representative Benjamin
F. Welty, of Ohio, declared last night,
in return to the "compliments" paid
him and Senator Dial by Judge Landis
in his speech at the American Legion
banquet in Des Moines Saturday
night.
"If Judge Landis was justified in
accepting a salary of $42,500 a year
from the baseball trust when at the
same time it had been proved an illegal
combine and fined $50*000 by
the supreme court of the District of
Columbia, then every other judge of
the supreme bench is justified in accepting
the same salary," the representative
declared last night.
Case Still Pending.
Represntative Welty declared that
the case was still pending and had
been appealed to the supreme court
of the United States.
"If the baseball magnates or any
other illegal combination have a right
to hire Judge Landis they have .a
right to hire every other judge in the
land," says Welty.
Representative Welty said that he
would ask for an investigation immediately
of the alleged irregularities
connected with Judge Landis's acceptance
of a salary as arbitrator for
the baseball people.
He declared that he would invoke
an act passed by congress two years
ago which prohibits the acceptance of
a government official of a salary from
a source other than the government
of the United States.
Attorney General Palmer had informed
him by letter, he said, that
this act was not applicable to the
judiciary, but the representative said
that he would nevertheless ask foi
another interpretation.
Landis's Statement.
Chicago, Feb. 13.?Judge Kennesaw
M. Landis said tonight he had no
fear of impeachment. The judge had
just returned from Des Moines, Iowa,
where he had answered criticisms of
Senator Dial, of South Carolina, in an
address before an American Legion
post.
The first thing Judge Landis did
was to read to his audience a biographical
sketch of Senator Dial. It
credited the senator with being interested
in a bank or two, cotton mills
and waterpower products in South
Carolina. He said:
Tells of Fight.
"A few years ago, after a fight had
been made in the country for fifty
years, in the interest of the developA
COFFIN OF KU KLUX KLAN.
Box Used By York Men Now Valued
Relic.
York, March 12.?The coffin, used
by the Knights of the invisible Empire
of the Ku Klux Klan in initiation
ceremonies in 186S-70, was recently
found in the attic of a Main street
business house. It had lain there
unused for half a century. The coffin
is now a valued relic in possession
of J. Robert Lindsay, insurance man.
Ho Cot the Job.
An Irishman, an Englishman ,and
a Scotchman were out of work. They
traveled together in search of employment
and came to a farmer's
house and applied. The farmer said
whoever could ten tne niggest lie
could have a job. The Englishman
said he went to the north pole in a
tub. The Scotchman said he swam to
the south pole. The farmer then
asked Pat:
"Well, Pat, what's your lie?"
"Begorra, sir," said Pat, "I believe
these lads." Pat got-the job.
Fearing for Sister.
Ltitle Tommie Brown was always
interested in his little baby sister.
One day he stood peering down
upon it, while the nurse was singing
it to sleep.
"Nurse," he whispered a: last,
"she's nearly unconscious, isn't she?"
"Yes," nodded the nurse, and continued
singing the lullaby.
But mommy whispered in alarm.
' Then don t sing any more or
you'll kill her."
One Way.
A crusty old bachelor had accepted
an invitation to spend the holiday
with relatives in the east.
The fond young mother was rocking
baby one morning when, with a
confiding glance she said:
"I wonder, Uncle Fred, how 1 can
ment of men and women?particularly
women, the chief detriment was
the employing of little girls in cotton
mills down south?congress passed
a bill to shut out of interstate commerce
the manufactured products of
the labor of little girls and boys, a
cotton manufacturer?I do not know
whether it was Senator Dial or not?
attacked that act of congress as unconstitutional,
and the supreme court
of the United States, in the exercise of
its duty, under its oath of office had
to hold that the law was unconstitutional.
"Those little girls and boys were
employed down there in this mill at
starvation-wages. They were employ-'
ed because they were little girls and
little boys and would work for low
wages, and I can't understand, how,
out of all the ninety-six senators in
the chamber of Washington, a man
with that allignment -would attack a
Federal judge who would go slow in
imposing a sentence upon a $90-amonth
clerk, employed at 19 years
of age, handling $1,000,000 of money
in the bank every month."
Attacks Dial.
Judge Landis, in referring to Sena
I tor Dial as being president of the
Peoples Loan and Exchange bank and
the Home Trust company, of Laurens
county, S. ., said:
"I think he had better get out of
| the banking business or else get out
of the senate. He also aided in estabj
lishing other banks and financial inj
terests. I can understand why he is
not against this proposition."
Judge Landis said he was still undecided
what to do with the young
bank clerk.
