GOVERNOR COOPER AND
THE RAILROAD MEi
With his usual foresight, Governo
Cooper has been making every efToi
to avoid trouble for the people c
South (_' rolina and to h\' that th
railroad strike does the least damn}!
to shippers and the traveling publi<
He intimates that the men have r
moral right to stri?e nt this tin
when it would cause great sufferlr
amon^ the people and would intlii
irreparable loss on the public, 1
said it would cause a tremendous d
crease in the prices of all airricultur
products that the State has to sell ni
a tremendous increase in everythii
the State has to buy.
The farmers of the State have be<
hit hard during the past year and tl
strike coming at this time would de
them another severe blow, he said.
It is the duty of the State ai
national governments, the govern
said, to protect the public, ai
speaking for South Carolina he sa
that the trains must run and th
the State goevrnment would see
it that they do.
DEATH OF SENATOR KNOX
The death of Hon. Philander '
Knox removes from the stage of a
tion one of the leading Statesmen
the day.
He was born in 1853 in Brown
ville, Pennsylvania, and was admitt<
to the bar in Pittsburg in 1875. 1
was attorney-general in McKinley
cabinet and in the cabinet of Pros
dent Roosevelt. He was secretary ?
state under President Tuft. He hi
served as United States Senator fi
several years ami occupied a cur
manding position in the Senate, h
great ability being freely acknowieti;
eil by friend and foe. Being a man <
positive convictions, %and of u
doubted*courage he naturally antai
onized many who could r ot s.ee i
he did, but he was given credit f'
conscientious adherence to duty as 1
saw it.
One example of his courage and <
his independence was advocatii
compensation to Colombia in opp
sition to President Roosevelt, wl
violently opposed the proposition.
LOCAL OFFICES NOT FOR SAMB
When a negro man was appointt
a member of a Pennsylvania scbo
board the other day the other men
bers promptly resigned. This was m
in the South, not in South Carolii
even, but in that great Northei
state where a colored pusson is su]
posed to be as good as a white on

South does not treat the negro t
he should be treated.
But when he aspires to local o

story.
JUSTICE FOR THE FARMER
Senator Ashurst, of Arizona, can"
to the defence of the farming interes
in a recent speech in Congress. He e:
posed the hypoccrisy of the Itepubl
can leaders in their pledges to legi
late for the farmers interest. He saic
"When we suggest that the farm<
should share in the benefits of th
tariff, if there are any benefits, yo
become cold and distant toward
tariff bill, and you throw up you
hands in horror at the suggestion tin
a farmer should share in a protectiv
tariff. Remember that your tariff bi
must see to it that the producer o
the farm and the ranch, as well a
the manufacturer, shall be considei
ed or you will have no tariff bill. J)
I make myself clear?
"The Federal Farm Loan Board i
not functioning except after the fash
ion of official red-tape Washingtor
It seems as if th<* Federal Farm Lon
Board is using every means eligibl
to human ingenuity to prevent niak
in# loans to farmers. It is the inter
tion of the agricultural bloc to se
to it that loans shall be made to farm
ers with all the celerity with whitmen
can act. The Federal Farm Loa;
Board is now giving a demonstratioi
to the people of 'how not to do it.' VVi
intend that they shall give a demon
stration to the people of how to d<
it."
Along the same line Senator Hef
lin of Alabama, said:
"Here we are today, Mr. President
with three-fourths of the gold supplj
of the whole world and yet the agr:
cultural indutsry is unable to obtai.
the money necessary to market it:
products at a profit. You have 22 ma
joruy in the Senate and more thai
150 majority in the House. You hav<
the President in the White House
Why do you not act?
"Again I say that honest busines:
men in the South and West have los.
confidence in your Federal Reserv<
Board. There are places in the South
and West where they would be hoot
ed at and hissed upon the street.'
There are thousands of people wh<
f&el that their business was dertroy

PEACEMAKER STEVENSON
AMONG HOUSE DEMOCRATS
Wa-Uin, tin. Cel. 17?The little
bar i of lu.uo'jruvj iu the house now
shows as tenacious front as the Light
i Rrgade at Balaklava. But it has not
I always been so at this session of Congress.
There has been more than one
occasion when the leadership of .the
Dt noorats haa been a matter of j
adroit compromise. The differences
between the two factions led by Finis
Garret of Tennessee and Jack Garner
of Texas on the question of retaining
the excess prolt tax in voting to recommit
the Fordnoy revenue bill was
so rad cal that house Democrats caucused
for four days in the middle of
August before t hey reached an agreement.
Claude Kitchin had written
, J from his icl; bed in North Caroliot
[ to his fellow Demon1'ts to hold to t.ht
exece* profit t x like grim death.
Men 1'te Garrett, Tague and Carew
. had demanded that the leader's eouti,
vol bi followed but the GorneivCrisp
, faction, contended that this tax must
I be thrown overboard before they
would vote to recommit the bill,
r For a time it looked as if this se
, rious factional dlffwenc3 on a fundaI
mental principle of legislation would
. destroy ell veal team work in the init
ncrity party In the housa. But in the
. caucu' sat one man who was able to
: gauge the true situation and strike a
i balance between the factions. This
. was William Francis Stevenson, of
. the fif.h South C'U'olina district- Mr.
o* - ?
,jiv>viisun :n riui a comparatively
- new man In the house now serving
' out his third term but he is one of
- the ablest lawye.-j in the entire body.
i To begin with, he \vs< one of the best
- trained student - it) mathematics and
i the t> ehnique of language ever turnt
ed out from Davidson College, N. C'.
I Besides he had sat :n the South Ca:'o
? una legislature and in the councils of
his patty for many years where he
became a past master at framing
legislation and writing caucus resolu
lions. Mr. Steven-on it* used to dif
i'erences among Democrats, In South
1 Carolina there nre no Republicans.
So he was at honte in this wrang:
lng of fellow Democrats in Washing!
ton. lie was there with his pen as well
? as with his tongue. When the cau us
seemed about to end its first roeetng
in dismay and dissolution, Mr.
' Stevenson with his first prepared re-o*
lution was recognised and mounted
the platform. He has what his friends
' in South Carolina call a sword fish
voice?if a sword fish had a voice.
If he had a voice like most of the
other men who had been talking his
words might not have so instantly
1 captured the attention of the assembly,
but his voice cut its way athwart
' every obstacle.
The remarkable discovery by the
caucus was that when it heard Mr.
Stevenson's resolution, it found that
t was nearer together than it had
thought pojsible. This master of party
pe:.ce and concord had seized on
to the word "temporary" as the time
1 element in the life of the excess pro,
fit tax in the bill. He had dexterously
. dropped this word on the middle of
the table between Garrett and Garn.
er who had been starring at each othj
er in defiance. The word instantly
, tie: .-hod forth a hand to grasp eaeh
. faction. It danced up and down in
the room inviting both factions to
, i C mi' hack th?? novt o?wl
> , erformance.
. On the following1 day at the sugt
gestion of many members a meeting
. ?vns held of about a half dozen lead.
ers and among them Mr. Stevenson,
r Many members had in the meantime
'.riven ihe proposed resolutions to actr
ng 1. ader, Garrett for this confer.
once and he had presented them. Mr.
^lood, of Virginia, chairman of the
. Democratic Congressional Commit.
tee oifered one. Mr. Stevenson offer- j
. ?d liis final draft after a >hort disI
cussion. On motion of Mr. Flood, Mr.
| Stevenson's resolution was unanimously
adopted and Mr. Garrett was
''rect?d! to present ?it to the caucus
I the unanimous action of the com- )
liitee and on his doing ro it was
inariimously adopted, pledging every
Democrat to vote against the tax t il
nd a solid front was thus obtained
or the first timo in several years.
Mr. Stevenson is such an adept in
'.chicving harmony among contrary
lind-; and party opponents that he
'.as beguilled a majority of the Republicans
on banking nnd currency
ommittee to vote with him on im>ortant
measures. The committee tied
>n the issue of reporting out such a
hill to rehabilitate the war finance
corporation and to authorize to finance
agricultural products. The ,
night before the bill was reported out j
he *.von over one of the Republican
members and broke the tie.
After the bill to make $50,000,wi)0
deposit in farm loan hanks to enabale
to them to go on at once last
spring, had failed in committee by n
tie vote, in which the chairman of the
"ommittee had cast the VJto that tied
t, Mr. Stevenson induced several
iffir.ncrfltip r*11 o ncrr%t*a iuKA
v?<vs?^wvn ?? (I V/ nail vvatru
- resent because they wanted $100,000,000
instead of $r,0,000,000, to
.-hange, their votes next day and re- |
port ou the bill with $50,000,000 be* 1
<ng the best they ccould hope for. He
stands for practical results. If you
can not get all you want and need?
.take what you can get is his policy?
nd it accomplishes things.
Mr. Stevenson has made two
pceches in the house that have attracted
the favorable attention of the
'ountry, one excoriating Ambassador
Harvey for hfe attempt to make a
paltroon of America In the world
war. He found that the doughty colonel
had received }ii? qrilitary title at a
banquet in Charleston yearn ago

where he boasted that his New Eng

ing and on that fact he bases the pre
diction that Debs and all other instigators
of treason and sedition dur
ing the world war will bc pardoner
soon after the German treaty is sign

Mr. Stevenson is now working on s
bill to grant equal compensation tt
officers in the national i\rmy whe

OF THE -PLAINS"
' One day buck in the sixtlea- a trap,?er
was following a narrow trull
'(trough the wootl? near Cedar Mounii
In. In Wyoming. Suddenly from u
.'lump of bushes nearby a shot rung
JutT followed To quick succession by
three more. The trappfer dropped
lulckly to ttle ground and rolled behind
a-log, unhurt. Then he waited
'or the next move of the Indians who
ind aiubuahed him.
In a few mlnfetes a war bonnet apleared
above a log a short distance
away. The trapper was not deceived.
for this was an old Indian trick.
However, the trapper had a better
trick than this up hla sleeve, - Hie
rifle was not a single shot, for after
< winter of successful trapping he had
?old his furs In St. Louis and hud
ought a repeating rifle, one of the
rtrtt to be carried In the Rocky mountains.
He had this weapon now, and
he Immediately flred, as the Indiana
were hoping he wonld do.
As he fired four Indians sprang from
the bush and with wild yells of triumph
rushed for the trapper. Without
removing his gun from his shoulder,
the white man pumped bullets at
oncoming warriors as fast as he could
work the lever.
Three of the Indian* dropped In
their tracks, and the fourth, with a
howl of dismay, turned and fled at top
speed, followed by several bullets,
which the trapper sent after him to
enoournge the fleeing redskin. When
the surviving warrior arrived In ?ls
village he told a marvelous tale of an
encounter with a white man who hod
a "medicine gun" which never stopped
--hooting and killing.
In this way Dr. \V. F. Carver, the
rapper who hod been ambushed, won
the name of "The Evil Spirit of the
Plains"- for the Indians learned to
fear h!tu and his medicine gun as they
I'd no other trapper who Invaded their
hunting grounds. When the trapping
days ended. Dr. Carver became a scout

The two scouts became fast friends.
