WhUo ,2reta~y Der.by was in Japan and fine Roosevelt was wcrkinj out oncmks in the edminunation of the .vy department, he determined to ise up the purely political na.y yard Charleston, South Carolina. That i the country will recall, is the yard hich eld Ben Tillman forced upon e country when he was chairman the senate committee on naval afiirs during the first Wilson admintration. To nu-ke a channel to the ivJ it was necessary to alter the ndscape materially. At great exmse a considerable area of land was iminated. This was all to the good om the Daniels standpoint, sir.ee the ore moiiev spent in the South, the etter. Young Roosevelt's proposal > shut tip the Charleston yard soon ^countered negative action on the art <d' the senators from South Carlina. They induced ten of their asjciates making an even dozen in all -to sign a round robin declaring that (icy would oppose with their influnee and their votes the president's Inp subsidy bill if the Charleston avd was closed, unless the governlent at the same time should also loio some Northern navy yard. They >ok this threat to Lasker, chairman f the Shipping Board. LaskcT is the eid agent of the ship subsidy proo-ai. He carried the paper to the ITHte House, and very shortly thorefter Roosevelt received formal and mitten instructions from his oomnar.der-in-chief to cancel the plan or dismantling the Charleston yard. )f course, Roosevelt was peeved. Esicciaily be resented Lasker's part in he affair. Orders being orders, be beyed?but technically rather than 11 spirit. For immediately he exerised the power of the department and rithdrew all ships from Charleston, ?avmg the yatd with nothing to do. . few days thereafter Secretary Deny came home, and hem? more subervien:, reversed hi>> young assistnt's policy, but not m an offensive ay. Adroitly he brought about the reation of a board of naval officer? j ruak? a new study of navy yard eeds, preserving the existing status." -San Fiancisco Argonaut. The foregoing is typical of the ropagai'da of lies disseminated in re. ition to the Charlesto.i Navy Yard. hid young Teddy Roosevelt exhibit llashea of the paternal form"? Ilis nther established the yard. Is it the yard "which old Ben Tilllan forced upon the country when he as chairman of the ftnate committo on naval affairs during the first Vilson administration?" The yard was authorized in 1901, hcodor.j Roosevelt being president f the United States, Senator Hale, f Mauic, was chairman of the sente committee on naval affairs; Mr. ong, of Massachusetts, was secreiry of the navy and hoth houses of ingress were Republican. It was esihlished on the recommendation of 10 Rogers board, composed of some f th<> ablest officers in the navy, fter exhaustive study. It would be irnnge if the Republican party had ut a $20,000,000 navy yard in Charston, S. C., for political reasons. 'To make a channel to the yard it . as necessary to alter the landscape laterially." The yard is on the west ink of a broad river. There is a clear lannel of 30 feet of water to the icn sea and the total sum ever spent i ih > river was $175,000. So mnel'i foi* 1 he farts Thi-v show mt the Argonaut's misinformation :ts complete. l or year the British delieved in ?ni ralization of navy vards. About )0*? iHis* policy was changed, and one suit was the construction of the t - at Rosslyn. There, in the north ' Scotland, the great fleet was mainlined during the world war and it i ol leo much to say that Rosslyn as t mighty factor in the final vic>ry of the Allies, Between Hatteras id -mama, the United States has it one yard?that at Charleston, here ate six north of Hatteras, a stance of less than a thousand miles, 'onld >t be statesmanship or reckssnoss to abandon that one yard, the lieie.icy of which has never been lallengcd ? There have been some naval officers ho verbally criticised the Charleston ard, but very few. if any, have ever a red to put such opinions in writing rid stake their professional reputaons on p. verdict that the yard is un[?ceaanry. No, indeed, for to do so ould he to combat the opinion of ie master strategist and naval writr, Admiral Malum, and the best aulorities the naval profession has pro jced. Of the various r.avy yards in le country, the Charleston yard bejnd ill others is the one that exista i spite of political pressure. Polital opponents put it there because the itionul defense so required. The seirity of the nation demands that it kept there. resident Celebrates Birthday Washington, Nov. 2. ?

There is a Republican candidate for congress, Mr. M. P. Norwood, of Greenville, Sonth Carolina, and there is being conducted a vigorous and1 quiet campaign among the Republi-| cans and their friends for the purpose; of getting out everybody possible to! vote f->~ Mr. Norwood for congress, end there is dnngcr that unless the Democrats turn out and vote and support the nominee if the Democratic party, the Hon. J. J. McSwain. the Republicans might run in their man as a "dark horse." Therefore all Democrats are urged to get their registration certificates out at once and also get their tax receipts and have them ready so that on the morning of November 7 they can go to the polls and vote for the Democratic candidate for governor and the Democratic candidate for congress, and all other Democratic candidates for state offices and county offices. There is another reason why the| Democrats should turn out in full1 strength and vote and it is this: A1 reapportionment bill is pending in! congress to fix the number of rep., resentatives in congress from the several states, nr.d sonic Republicans; have been trying to cut down the rep resentation from the Southern States to the basis of the number of people voting at the general election, and asj that number has heretofore beenj small ir would cut the representation! from South Carolina in half. If, j therefore, the vote this year is light as heretofore it will give the Northern Republicans another argument to make against allowing the South a fair representation in congress. Therefore the people should turn out to vote as a matter of state duty in order to guarantee a just and propeTj representation of Southern interests! in the national congress. Our state chairman has sounded the warning The matter is of great importance. Let Union county con ' tinue to respond to the call to duty, and every Democrat, man and woman, ' go to the polls next Tuesday prepared and vote for our nominees. J. A. Sawyer, ; 11-1-3-4 County Chairman. j . ^ Successful School Board Members The qualities needed in the school board members are character, busi- ' ness judgment and a good general idea of what education ought to be. Many men, and perhaps some women, who could not show a diploma or pass an examination in scholastic subject? Pll the bill. The reason why we have poor school boards, when we do, is not because there are no fixed academic requirements for membership in them but because great numbers of well-meaning and reasonably intel. ligent persons stay away from *he primaries and at regular elections 1 vote carelessly or for foolish reasons. 1 School Board Journal. 1 ' i m , ( The smallest known bird is a C^n- ? ,rnl American humming bird, which i 1 s about the size of a b!ue-bottle fly. 1 L / ,v . d' yJLAJ.

In other words the relief afforded reaches and benefits all classes. Watkins A post jcard will bring any of the iiore than 150 Watkins Products to /our door.
