Conditions In the political woi .south of Mason and Dixon line a ^becoming more or less mixed if > are to judge men by their votes ai expressions about political metho and policies. When a member Congress forgets his people.his par -pledges and the platform of prim pies as declared by his party in co vention assembled, and votes wi his political opponents on questio vof party differences, is he a Repub i?&h or a democrat? Some of the Congressmen fro South Carolina voted with the R n: iL. x -rr puuucaus m me utrm cuiiutm mv^v gress. Among those who so vott is the member from the Sixth distri* this district. Is he Republican c Democrat? Who will dare answei Was this Republican vote the r< siifc of clear-cut convictions or co: p?rrai> dictation? Are the lumbe ihiil.1 cd the Sixth district great* " than the people of this district? Ai not these Congressmen who vote with the Republicans for greed graft in the tariff legislation i Washington TRAITORS to Demoi racy? & tooks that way to this scribe, i be understands Democracy. The Southern member of Congre who proves a traitor to the peop on vital questions of party diffe ences will, if the necessity shou arise, prove a traitor to white s premacy and again piunge the Sou into the horrors of the Reconstri tion period. The man false to hii self will prove false to his peoj a id every interest committed to 1 care and keeping. The voters of the Sixth Congr* sional district had best look ir these conditions of Republican tea* ings and efforts to protect t strong, the lumber mills?and t the poor?make the poor man w buys lumber to build a house shelter his family, pay $1.50 ] t tousand moie for lumber tl without these prolev.ive laws of i United States he should pay. This is just what these Congr* m?n from South Carolina did v v >ted to protect lumber in United Statesagainst importation: lumber from Canada. South Amei and other lumber countries. 1 dozen lumber mills are to be l>en<. ieiaries of a protective ta law. while two hundred thous! peope of the Sixth Congressio district must pay the piper. This question of tariff is quit difficult one for the average votei understand. A protective tariff as that on U l>er is to the benefit of the few j to the burden of the many with an> tax money thereof going to s ??ort the government of the cour they are taxed to support. The i escape the tariff tax burden, wi the consumers bear the greater j of the tariff burdens. Is the Congressman from the Si district of South Carolina Republi or Democratic?

Sometimes we see the hands ds of the lumber mill and again the cotton mill in these protective tariff ty matters.?MuUins Enterpritr. z\ n? Congressman Ellerbe's Defense, th Congressman Ellerbe says"several ns thousand men" requested him to ]j. vote against free lumber, and that he got absolution to do as his confrt stituents wanted from Minority e. Leader Clark. n. One or two interesting points for inquiry present themselves. Were ihe several thousand men who made )r this request of Mr. Ellerbe Demor9 cratic voters in his district? Who instigated the signing of petitions, r. t'.ie manufacturers of lumber or the ,r consumers of lumber? What pro;r portion of petitioners were em^ ployes of lumber manufacturers? 1{j Mr. Clark conld not consistently, [y as party leader, advise any Congressn ! man that he was free to vote against fko liAoitivo nUHap His nartv and (J. Fvaiw.v F,v?ev ? i * , the pledge of Mr. Ellerbe's party ^ was "free lumber." And certainly Mr. Clark did nnt pretend to absolve gg Mr. Ellerbe from the oath he took je to South Carolina Democrats to subr_ mit to party discipline, to obey the Id I national party, as it decreed its prinu_ ciplesin its platform. None had the power to relieve Mr. Ellerbe from 1C_ the binding force of his pledge of abeg ance.? Tin' )le i Ellerbe, Too. US I The real question of this campaign ihat will remain unanswered when esMr Lever is again nominated on Auito 4, ^ gust .'ill, is this: Has he been faith^ : ful to the Democratic party when he i voted for a dutv on lumber?" In the :ax I ^: oath taken to his jieople here ir 'South Carolina Mr Lever pledger to I his solemn word to recognize the binding obligation upon him of th< ^ | Democratic party's decrees. Thai e j party pledged its good faith and honor to "put lumber on the fre< ;ss^ j list." Mr Lever voted for a duty or j lumber. He savs he did so becaust the . ^: it put three millions into the treas ! ury; the Republicans were looking after the treasurv, it was Mr Lever' wo j proper part to keep his pledged faitl t) the party. He says in further jus ^ titication that 42 Democrats vote< ' j for that duty. If four millions ha< done so his obligation to vote agains it would have been no whit less. Bu 0 8 ^ all of those 42 Democrats had no *> signed the oath that bound Mr Leve ' when he entered the South Carolin im i primarv.?
