C., aa second-clue matter. SUBSCRIPTION RATES: One Year -. Jw— — IL50 Six II on the, .90 Three Months .60 (Strict^ if Adeance.) ^ THURSDAY APRl^jttND,, 1926. John T. Doneaijt, who wraa a candi date for Mayor of Cblttmbia and is now in the race for Governor, stated uof the capital city that he wanted to make Columbia safe for the meetings of the legislature. What is really needed,' however, is to make the legislature safe for Col ombia and the rest of South Caro lina. We see by the political advertise ment in Mondays’s issue of The State that the ministers of Columbia favor “a much stricter and more ef ficient enforcement of the laws of tho State and city against the sale of whiskey, gambling and 1MMOR- TALITY* in that* city. That’s the fifst inkhng we had that there, is, a law in South Carolina against im mortality and if there is one, the ministers are the last men in the world we would have picked as being in favor of its enforcement. No Such Animal. A Democrat is defined as follows: “A Democrat is one who believes in the fullest freedom of speech, prees and religion, and separation of Church and State; laws that bear equally upoq^Att—Jtdbsaea,. without special pt+r^ge- or' "WiRHBPf; TfgfitSTof States guaranteed by the Sonstitution, and less nat ional paternalism.” In the words of the old farmer who viewed a giraffe for the first time, "there ain’t no sich animal.” " -L The American Farmer Leads. American farmers are the most ef ficient in the world. The United States leads the world in the development of agricultural machinery. From 1910 to 1920 American farm labor incieased in efficiency 22.5 per cent. The volume of crop production increased 11 per cent, v These figures are from the survey of the National Industrial Board. They don’t offer the American far mer any relief, but—. They do offer every American— farm man and city man—a good de gree of satisfaction. Ita a Hard Life Wails Congress happy.** ^— His pronouncement that he was a "infidel” brought a storm of pro tests upon him. He sought vainly, at his clung tb his contention that there is no life beyond the grave. The cofitrioversy unnerved him— and his strength failed in the crisis. And now the entire world lauds him despite his religious conviction, as a great scientist and a great and lovable man. Approved for Summer Dunbarton School Honor Roll. What’s the use of being a con gressman, anyway? The day of pri vileges is just about ended. Not so long ago someone made congressmen quit using,their statidn- allowances to purchase things that didn’t, hpva anytliiag tpjdo wngr legislation. And now along comes Speaker Longworth and puts a n end to the M extension of remarks” in the Con gressional Record. A member arose, emitted words for a minute or two, and then begged to "extend his remarks.” This was al ways granted. The member then proceeded to “extend” them for ■everal pages, or a dozen pages at the cost—to the government— of $24.00 a column. . The idea was to make the folks at Borne believe the congressman had reached the pinnacle of oratorical fame. Thet’s the end! No congressman from now on will get any remarks hi the record except those that he makes on the floor. He may revise them and polish them, but he can’t extend them.*.;' 1 Congress isn’t Congress any more.
