Columbia State Fair
Opens Monday, October 23
Columbia, Sept. 3.?Fair time is
tapidly approaching. The first tinge
of autumn in the air brings one'a
thoughts to the joys, pleasures and
educational advantages of these county
and state institutions. The South
Carolina State Fair will span in Coe*
I lumbia, Monday, October 23. and con
^ ttnue throughout tlx entire week.
Splendid programs have been arranged
for each day. Wonderful night programs
will also be featured. From
the early interest displayed it is an
assured fact that the big show th a
year will be a decided success. Visitors
will note with pride the many
improvements that have been made
since the close of the last State Fair.
These .include a modern grandstand
at the race course with seating capacity
of 5,000; new barns for live
stock and speed horses; wide walkways
bordered with palmettos, flowers
and shrubs, and an entire new
arrangement of the interiors of exhibit
buildings for the convenience of
both visitors and exhibitors.
The splendid premiums offered in
the various departments of the Fair
are sure to attract a large exhibit. In
the live stock rings famous stables,
herds and groups will compete for liberal
premiums. The poultry show will
excel that of former years, as will the
display of agricultural and horticultural
products. The woman's department
will be filled to overflowing with
dainty displays.
The United States Department of
Agriculture will install a mammoth
exhibit, while displays from all South
Carolina state institutions will attract
marked attention.
~ The amusement features at the
State Fair have not been overlooked.
Harness and running races are programmed
each day. A big program
of free circus acts will be presented
day and night. Fireworks displays
are nightly features, while on the joy
plasa the famous Johnny Jones Shows
will entertain. The amusement program
is easily the most elaborate ever
presented in South Carolina and is
certain to attract record-breaking
crowds. Railroads are cooperating
with the Fair management in inducing
a large attendance and sDecinl
rata service with excursion rates will
prevail during the continuance of the
Pair.
Testing Open Port Law
- *
Austin, Tex., Sept. 1.?The Texas
Open Port Law, passed by a special
session of the Texas legislature in
IMt, is going through its initial trial
as a result of the present railroad
strike. Since the beginning of the
Strike, ten Texas railroad centers
kaes been placed under the law and
are being policed by state rangers.
Ihxas Is th?t onlv state In the n?.
tion, according to state officials, that
has such a law. It was passed as a
result of the situation at Galveston
'doitlg the strike of longshoremen in
1M0. It is designed to empower the
governor of the state to take complate
charge of police activities in any
speffifled territory when commerce is
tofof interrupted, without invoking
MMKallaw.
The open port statute hud been virtually
forgotten until the present

No attempt had been made
to invoke its provisions or test its
constitutionality.
The effectiveness of the act, accord,
j ing to state officers, is made possible
i by the fact that before Texas became
i a state, a system of state rangers
| was established as the official police
organization. The normal force uel
fore the strike was 47. This number
has been augmented and approximately
16# special rangers commissioned.
These police officials are stationed
at railroad centers where open
port law has been invoked, and in
more than 20 other centers of strike
activity.
Upon declaring open port law, the
governor assumes complete control r.f
all police activities and state rangers
named by which the governor shall
enforce the law. Violation is a felony.
Although the law has been in
force less than a month in any Texas
town, state officials declare it is a decided
success and is a great financial
saving to the state as compared with
martial law action. In the centers
where the law has been put in force,
the railroads are voluntarily paying
the cost of fftaintaining the state
rangers.

First Time to See
Aviation Meet
Port-Au-Prince, Haiti, Sept. 1.?
For the first time in its one hundred
and eighteen years as a Republic,
Haiti saw a modern aviation meet
this week on the flying field of the
Fourth Air Squadron of the Marine
Corps Aviation Force.
President Louis F. Boro, the members
of his cabinet and the heads of
the Court of Cassation and of the
Council of State were the honor
guests of the American High Commissioner,
Brigadier-General John H.
Russell. Madame Borno, wife of the
president, headed a large delegation
of Haitieti society and one feature
of the unqualified * success of the
meet was the evidence of the growing
approachment between Haitian and
American officials and social circles.
It is estimated that a total of 2,000
persons witnessed the stirring progrom
that was carried out without
mishap oir delay.
Flights in formation, a daring
mock fight between two swift planes,
the transportation 'to the field of a
simulated casualty and the immediate
transfer to a waiting ambulance,
a parachute drop, acrobatic stunts,
target practice with machine guns
and dummy bombs, and the antics
of a squad of clowns from the enlisted
personnel of the squadron ex,
cited the liveliest interest and ad|
miration of President Borno and hia
compatriots.

Develop New Varieties
Of Fruil
Miami, Fla., Sept. 4.?Two Florids
horticulturists, one a Chinese and th<
other a negro, have developed new
varieties of fruits which the forme)
believes is destined to fill a gap in th<
fruit calendar of this section, and th<
other to introduce a new variety ol
grapefruit.
Lue Gim Gong, the Chinese, whoas
estate near DeLand is one of tlu
show places of Central Florida, gained
international prominence some
years ago when he disclosed the de
vclopment of a new variety of orange
possessing unusual qualities
from the viewpoint of the citrus
fruit grower. The orange, which was
named the "Lue Gim Gong" in honor
of its develoDer. now is nrodnn??il
throughout the state. In March
1921, Lue Gim Gong announced the
production of, and exhibited, a grapefruit
remarkable for the penetrating
power of its agreeable aroma. Hii
experiments with citrus fruits are
continuing.
Hezekiah Brooks, negro gardenei
and fruit grower of Miami, recently
announced the successful conclusion
of his attempts to produce a new va
riety of mango. The result is des
tined to fill a gap in the fruit calendar
of this section because, he claims
the fruit ripens between Novembei
and January, a period during which
the mango is not to be found in thia
market.
The Brooks mango is similar to the
Mulgoba in appearance and texture
but is declared to be superior to thai
variety in flavor. Some experts pronounce
it a cross between the Mulgoba
and Sundash. Brooks has presented
some of the new mangoes tc
Charles Deering for propagation and
experiments on the Deering estate
here.
Japan's Music Mania
A music mania has descended upon
Japan, according to a Japanese journal,
which clearly has an editor
an unsympathetic ear. This same
editor has a discerning eye, however;
for he notices that Germahy is supplying
most of the instruments whki
support the "mania." German goods
of other kinds, too, travelling ic
Japan are said to be increasing b|
leaps ' and bounds.?The Nation's

Organisation and
Mora Organization
Washington, Sept. 3.?Only by organisation
and mora organisation can
the WuAers of Amaftfoa secure a ^ull
measure of economic justice. President
Samuel Goropejrt of the American
Federation of Labor declared tonight
in a Labor message addressed
to the American people.
A four year "antMsbor war," Mr.
Gompers said, had demonstrated the
power of the trade union to protect
its members against organized employers,
before whom unorganized
labor had found itself "weakened,
scattered and helpless." He added
that the time had come for laboring
men and women at lfest to present "a
united workers' front to the powers
that prey." The message In part follows:
"EVjery contest with the owners
ana manipulators of industry accentuates
the truth that the workers
nave but few outside their own ranks
who sympathize with them in their
kind or support them in their efforts.
"The uncounted victories that organized
labor wins, the few temporary
setbacks that labor experiences,
cry aloud the divine truth that
justice for those who toil can only
come through the workers own efforts,
their own organization, their
own persistency.
"Now is the time for the workers
to rally more completely under the
standard of the unions."
Let Uncle Sam Help You
An American concern was selling
pipe to a certain South American
government. The first shipment
ment aroused the enthusiasm and
praise of engineers for its excellent
quality, and the ire ot our competitors
for the same reason. Unfortunately
there was a delay in tho
second shipment. The representative
of a large and prosperous foreign
country proceededv to the presidential
mansion and called the attention
of the executive to "the lack of interest
shown by American concerns
to South American business." They
had better cancel the order, opined
the diplomat?and they did.
The other country got the business,
"and the devil of it is," said
my informant, "that we had a dollar
diplomat aching for a chance to hold
that business but the firm wouldn't
fight."
Our dollar diplomacy is picayunish
^ compared to that of other countries,
mainly because our business men
| don't make use of it. There's the
j rub. No wonder our foreign staffs
are supposed to go to tea-dances?
many of our business people don't
give them anythiag^better to do. A
j certain proportion of ^ citizens
seem to think taxfe^^Mid'for repre[
sentation are a dead* tos. Many also

r Gas Pumps in Court
>
: The gasoline pump which is more
of a feature of our highways today
than watering troughs ever were in
5 an earlier generation have now been
' before the federal courts, and may
' yet gain the attention of the Su!
preme Court.
The case arose from a decision of
" the Federal Trade Commission, which
> held it to be an act of unfair com1
petition for an oil company to lend a
1 pump to a retailer on< condition that
through this pump the retailer would
' dispense only the company's gaso>
line. The Commission thought, toe,
' that there was violation of the por'
tion of the Clayton Act which for
bids "tying clauses," L e., the lease
1 or sale of an article upon condition
that there would be dealing in the
commodities of no one else.
The Circuit Court of Appeals at
Philadelphia thought otherwise
Agreeing that there was a* public interest
in the matter, the court declared
there was no evidence the pub
lie had been injured, either through
increased cost of distribution or by
reason of enhanced price of gasoline
to the public; on the contrary, the
cost of distribution had been lessened.
The court reasoned that enforcement
of the Trade Commission's conclusions
would result in the public
paying higher prices for its gasoline.
In the old days, the oil companies had
sold kerosene in barrels, and kept
ownership of the barrels. Later,
they had sold gasoline in steel bar'
rels, and kept ownership in the con1
tainers. The volume of the demand
for gasoline had outran the possibility
for using barrels, and the punp
with its reservoir had taken their
place. This would seem to have been
1 the reasoning of the court with respect
to the public Internet.?The Na1
