Ile may be forced to do so-to al low his name to go on the ticket and receive the suffrage of a favorite son, in order to protect the interests of the Democratic pah'tLy in his home state. iHere is the situation in Georgia: A vote for Attorney General Pal mer is a vote for the failure of the League of (Nations through 'Preside .

Every part of the country Is complaining about the returns. The population of two South Caro lina cities, Orangeburg and Sumter, will be announced tomorrow. Anderson, March 2.-The town bell did not ring out peals of Joy and no holiday was proclaImed for a cele bration when the figure of 10,53.1 was announced today as the population of Anderson as enumerated in the gov ernment (ensus for 1920. .Disgrtintled people in this city are ml1aNy as the result of the announce ment. More than one feels that the 9.1 per en'lt. Increase during the past ten years, -whihleli fig lres 8,1 more per tons than in 1910, is a grave error and one' that cannot he rectified for tenl years to comeIc.
