BLEASE AT FILBERT PICNIC.
Makes Attack on President Wilson?Says
He Has Dog in Him.
*'These Congressmen here have
been telling you what to do about
cotton and the like, and it all sounds
very well maybe; but it seems to me
that you might very well ask them
why they don't do a little something,
for if they have every done anything
worth while I have not heard of it,
(Applause).
"It is all right to talk about]Government
controlled warehouses. I
signed the bill creating the State
warehouse system because I believed
it was a good thing; but let's not
have any Federal control if we can
help it. We have a so-called Democratic
Government at Washington
now; but we have no guarantee as
to how long the Federal Government
is going to be friendly to the
South, and how would we feel with
a Federal warehouse system under
the management of a nigger warehouseman
and nigger graders?
"I always knew that Wilson had
some kind of a dog in hitn; but until
Mr Lever gave us that description a
while ago, I did not know it was
'bull.' I guess Mr Lever is about
right about it.
"If America wants to get into war
with anybody, she had better go after
her real enemy, England, and let
Germany alone. What have we got
against Germany, anyhow? Germany
did right when she sunk that boat.
T , J I 1. :l T*

been coming after you with a load
of* ammunition to kill you with,
wouldn't you have sunk 'em? You
bet you would.
"I'll tell you one thing. If the
United States gets into war with
Germany, she will know that she
has a war on her hands! You remember
that, will you?
"The Administration at Washington
is not Democratic. It is not a
Government of the people, and Wilson
is no friend of the South. He
is little more than an agent of England
and a representative of the
money interest of America, who
does not do anything until after he
gets instructions from J Pierpont
Morgan. If he had any part of the
Democracy of Thomas Jefferson in
his make-up, he would say to England:
'Damn you, if you don't stop
taking our cotton we will stop
you!' "From the Yorkville Enquirer's
report of the Filbert picnic.
. RUSSIANS EVACUATE WARSAW.
Make Orderly Retreat from Polish
Capital.
London, July 30:?The evacuation
nf Warsaw and the entire Vistula
line has been begun by the Russians,
according to unofficial but reliable
reports from Petrograd. The retirement
is being carried out in perfect
order, the Russians taking their artillery
and great stores of munitions
with them. The official announcement
is expected as soon as the retreat
has been successfully executed
to the second line of defence, which
extends from Kovno on the Niemen
riVer through Grodno to Brestlitovsk
on the Bug river. The retreat is attributed
to the lack of ammunition.
Later dispatches refute the above
story, but it is still evident that the
* Polish capitol is in imminent danger
unless the Russians can supply its
defenders with ammunition very
soon.
God Bless Our Dad.
We happened into a home the other
night, and over the parlor door
saw the legend worked in letters of
red, "What is Home Without a
Mother?" Across the room was another
brief, "God Bless Our Home."
Now,what's the matter with "God
Bless Our Dad?" He gets up early,
lights the fire, boils an egg, and
wipes the dew off the lawn with his
111? rrtoni? o liar ic clofin
UWIS wuwc uiniiv a Iiiuuii.t iu
inj?. He makes the weekly hand-out
to the butch ?r, the milkman and the
baker, and his little pile is badly demolished
before he has been home
an hour.
If there is a noise in the night
Dad is kicked in the back, made to
go downstairs and find the burglar
and kill him. Mother dams the
socks but Dad bought the socks in
the first place and the needles and
the yarn afterwards. Mother does
up the fruit. Dad bought it all and
jars and sugar cost like the mischief.
Dad buys the chicken for Sunday
dinners, serves them himself and
draws the neck from the ruins after
everybody else is served. "What is
Home Without a Mother?" Yes,
that is all right, but "What is Home
1 Without a Father?" Ten chances tc
one it is a boarding house; father is
under a slab and the landlady is the
widow. Dad,here's to you! You've
got your faults, you may have lots
of them, but you are all right and
we will miss you when you are
gone.?Exchange.
Tommy Grice, a negro of Florence,
was electrocuted at the State penitentiary
in Columbia yesterday for
assault. He is said to have confessed
to the crime.
