Although advocacy of the league of nations was the main theme of Dovernor Cox's address he also again attacked the Republican Sen? atorial oligarchy.

I Sinn Fein Courts Irish Republicans Organizing System of Tribunals Dublin. August 14?Sinn Fein is or? ganising under the name of the Irish Republican government, a supreme court of appeal which when set up will complete the system of tribunals so successful in handling minor disputes for the pus* montbs. The highest i Ourt of the British government in Ireland has virtually (cased to func? tion because appeals have*been with? drawn and many litigants decline to recognise that it has any authority whatever. Arthur Griffith, the leader of tha Sinn Kein in Ireland, told the Associa? ted Press, that ^t hat not been de? cided whether & have threo or five ludges on the supreme bench nor Had any of the judges been selected. "Our lower courts h?ve been 1 successful in checking the wave of crime that was sweeping over Ireland a few months ago," said Mr. Griffith. "Whatever may be said about the Republic of 11vian<l by mir enemies it must be and is admitted that petty crime has been on the wane all over the country sinco our courts began to function. Naturally many cases both criminal and civil have ISSJSj appealed but we have no higbei court than a district court to which* we may lake .them. Appeal cases am piling up and the rued of a supreme court is Increas? ing even/ day. "We <*o not anticipate any more trouble with the military ""and police In holding meetings of the supreme ?ourt than we have bad in Connection, with the lower ones. Now and then i an arn.sd fore*? prevents th*'ir being held but in tbut case thv ? ourt meets -igain somewhere else. In ro lustanco have .be troops and police permanent" ly prevented ca-es from being tried. Tho plan for forestalling British ludgOS and courts Js very simple but quite effective. When court is called men Summoned for Jury service fail to appear. Pines up to $F>on have been imposed on absentees, it the orllcers ar? rest tbein and imprison ibam they go on hunger strike and subsequently are 1 a leased hence. British authorities have tea*ed to use imprisonment a* a moth od und their courts are rapidly Ogaa, ing to function. All officers of the Sinn Fein parish and district courts are under the ju? risdiction of the Department of Jus? tice of ihe Irish Republic. Fach litigant in a civil action agrees |0 abide by the decision and not to take up the OgSS in an "enemy court," meaning a British institution In Ireland This agreement and ths weight Of public opinion constitutes the power of the new courts in civil eases. The power In criminal cases lies with the Irish volunteers, u force that is becoming less and less secret? ive in Its activities. The courts are | held In public halls or In any place convenient and reports of ths destruc? tion1 of the court bouses of the Brit? ish government com?' in almost daily. Sinn Fein hS>S no prisons. Sentence In more serious t riniinal cases and the most decide.!, is deportation, usually: to Biigland. Penalties for minor of- ' fences are usually a modification of the ptltorj spatem. * i Cox Will Speak Three Times this Week Against Republicans Columbus, August 1??

C., WEDNE3 CITIZENS HONOR GENERAL SUMM [Meet at Statesburg in Memory of Gamecock Hero COLONEL DARGAN AND MISS TRULUCK SPEAK _ Speaker of the Occasion Ap- j peals for Just Place for South Carolina Heroes The inni al reunion at Sumter Me? morial School, near <3tatcsburg, Sum? ter county, wuh held Saturday and a, largo crowd was out to do honor to J General Sumter of Revolutionary fame. This is an annuil custom in tin county, many people from milef around gathering for* an all day vicy nie near the grave of the Gamecock leneral at which time speeches art* made by prominent orators in memory of the dead hero. Colonel John J. Dargan is largely responsible for the keeping up of these meetings. On ac i count of ill health, he was prevented from attending the celebrations for some years, and it was a source of greed peletliri to his many friends tJ gys him In good health and at the cer-1 e monies this year. The school house! was well filled at 12 o'clock at which! time, Mr. E. I Reardon. of the Sum tei chamber of. Commerce, called the meeting to order and. after a few ln foduetery remarks, introduced M'?-* Caro Truluck, the home demonstra? tion agtnt, who was the first speak-1 er of the occasion. Miss Truluck di? rected her remarks along the line of improving the living conditions on the arm. She pleaded with the farmers to spend a little, less money on their barns and a little more on their homes, .the illustrated her remarks with sev? eral storied of farmer's wives and the work they had to do and showed how this Wptk could be lightened by a little cooperation from the farmers. Her speech was well received by the .udietu e. The main speech of the oc OOOlon was delivered by Colonel Dar? gan. lie expressed his pleasure in be? ing among bis friends again. He said :hat Mr II. C. Brabham from Olar had beep asked to make the speech but had boon unable to do so. After telling the celebration of former years, Mr. Darjgaii hOSJSjfl his speech along the lln of South Carolina's pluc in world history and thr? discriminationfe made> -gainst her by hiitorians in wrtlng the record of the nation. ? Col?"nt&? 1>arga? has devoted his life to the study of his question and la well qualified to speak of the history of the state. He stated that when a young man. he read a book that stated that South CarpUng started the war between the states. This book also stated that at the battle of Manasses, the South Car? olina troops ran and hid behind the Virginians. He investigated the mat Igy and did not stop, until the book was changed to 1 rend that General Hampton's men were two miles ahead of General Jackson's men. After discussing the matter of writ? ing history at some length, the colonel turned his attention to the Revolu? tionary war. He devoted some time ro the memory of General Kunvtcr, re 'calUng Cotnwailis' words, "General Sumter is the greatest plague in the country." After telling of his life, Colonel Dargan then told of bow lit? tle was known about htm by ?histor? ians. He also spoke df John Lauren* Henry Cabot Lodge has written a Ute of Washington" in two volumes This piece of work proposed to show the life of the Revolutionary leader and to tell of bis friends, but strange t?> say, one name was left out of the ! book, the name that should huve been llrgti the name of John LaurenS, the [South Carolinian. John l^aurens, ac? cording to Col. Dargan. secured aid from Fmnos, was largely responsible for the defeat of England, wrote the treaty of peace, and still he is not mentioned by many historians. Wash? ington said that Laurent had not a I fault that he could see and also that I he was inspired by the greatest love i of country, still Ledge did not men I I ion him in his writings. He then spoke of Woodfow Wilson and told of the Carolina heroes he had omitted Iron his history. He contrasted these two men with Robert Winthrop, from Massachusetts, who gave the greatest qrtrttt tc south Carollnt when he was commissi.med by the govern? ment to *tudy these thing*. Colonel Dargan stated that ho saw recently that one oollege in the state had sent one of her professors off to i study Assyrian history. He ma le a ringing appeal to the colleges of the state to substitute South Carolina his? tory tor tome of this. II?. then spoke of the naming of Camp Jackson, In Columbia. It was Strange that the au? thorities were not satislb',1 with some South Carolina name like Sumter. ' Calhoun, Plnckney of Marion, bul had to name It for Andrew Jackson who said He had lived in the state. He told of Jackson*i last momenta when he said "i have only one regret in my life, th.it 1 did not hang Calhoun ?is a traitor." When questions as to this he repeated his assertion and said he wished he could also hang ail his followers.
