Like the young chemist who wished
to approach this state, men have come

turned out to be, whenever properly

phases of human life as the mind
works in extraordinary circumstances.

T1S A GREAT LIFE
When President Harding wants a
little rest he goes to bed in a spe
cial train in Washington and pretty
nearly gets up in Florida. When
George Washington wanted to take a
look at the southern country he hud
to slosh along muddy trails and was
perhaps fortunate if he averaged much
over twenty-five miles a day. He
rode in his own coach and carried
two of his favorite saddle horses by
way of change. He went down by
what is known as the eastern route,
stopping at Fayettevillo, and tarn?
back ly the western route, stopping I
at Salisbury. He went as far south
as Savannah but never dreamed of
going to Florida.
Mr. Harding lays down the cares
of office, coasts in a palatial yacht,
and plays golf each day. It is thought
worthy cf remark that he is so cut
off from affairs that there is not
even a wireless on his boat. Mr.
Harding's ability to throw off the care
which he was complaining about a
week ago to the Press Club, and en
joy life in the open, is very fortunate,
and may prevent his going out of
the White House with physical im
pairment. It must be a great life,
to be president in the morning and a
rollicking golfer in the afternoon.
REAPING THE REWARD
The country is now reaping the re
ward which it brought by rejection
of the only plan on earth that had
heen proposed up till that time, or
has since boen proposed, to restore
rder and guarantee peace and sta
hility to the world so that everybody
could go to work in security and con
lidence towards repairing the ruins
of war. The Democratic administra
tion had a plan for this. It was a
concord of international confidence
which was called a league of nations.
All the other nations of the world
were willing to go into it, and did go
in, because they expected the United
States would go in and that this
' country's influence would be sufficient
to guarantee that the league should
1 an instrument of righteousness
and helpfulness. But what happened ?
Domestic politics made it necessary
for a great party, through its small
traders, to plant itself against this
pleasure and ruin it. The peace of the
world and the safety of mankind were
bitter Germany and make the rest of
Europe apprehensive. The treaty was
not even submitted to the senate after
it rejevteJ the peace treaty. snJ it
was impossible that the le-ague of
Nations should be the guarantee of
the world peace which it would have
been had the most powerful of all
the nations entered it.
"The Republicans underteok to es
tablish the economic, as well as the
political, isolation of the United
States from the rest of the world.
Cut the peace of the world requires
the co-operation of the United States,
and so doe's the prosperity of the
world. As soon as the Republicans
had the power they enacted the emer
gency tariff, which raised duties and
cut off imports and of course cut off
.xrorts; for Mr. Harding as well as
Mr. McKinley has told the Republi
can party that we cannot sell unless
we will also buy. The permanent
tariff has not been enacted yet,
though the Republican Administra
tion has begun its second year. The
reason is that the Republicans put at
the head of the Ways and Means
Committee the most narrow-minded,
provincial protectionist it could find,
and a large part of the Republicans
are not willing to follow his leader.
?hip. Hence nothing is done, and no
man knows what duties are to be,
and the manufacturers are begging
congress to give them some tariff, no
matter what.
"The emergency tariff has done its
put in isolating us from the world.
The exports of the United States in
1121 were $3,T-13,0(i0.0t'0 less than
in 1H20. The emergency tariff was
not the only factor in this, but it
was a factor.
"The blunder and blunders are
sometimes worse than crimes of
keeping the United States out of the
league hts been in a small nart atoned
for by the work of the Washington
conference; but that was limited to
a very lew nations; the conclusions
are without means of enforcement,
and their value is problematical. The
trouble with the United States as well
as with the world is that the Re
publicans prevented general co-operation
for averting war and reconstruct
ing the world, and the depression in
this country is largely due to the
parochial policies of the Republican
politicians, who suppose a policy of
political and commercial isolation is
possible for the Unit.-d States."

The time in the Recorder's court
was taken up yesterday with some
rather interesting though not very
important cases. A large crowd was
in attendance, especially from Buford
township, where the battle centered.
The occasion for Buforei s great in
ten st was the case of Henry Mills,
colored, against I las Hamilton, col
ored, and William Montgomery, white,
who were charged with stealing and
e-ecivsng hve bushels or peas from
Mills. It appears that the peas were
housed in an outbiulding near the res
idence of Mills when they disappear
ed. They were threshed peas and that
of course enhanced the value of the
product. Montgomery runs a store
in that neighborhood and he was
charged with entering into copartner
ship with Hamilton on a nfty-fiftv
basis for getting into possession of
the coveted peas. A jury trial was
asked for and Montgomery was found
guilty of receiving stolen goods, while
Hamilton was convicted of doinir the
stealing. Sentence was withheld un
til a later date.
J. L. Slaton, who is charged with
the theft of automobiles, was bound
over to Superior court under a $500
bond. He gave bond and is at liberty
L. S. Fowler was chareed with an
assault upon Allen White, the trouble'
originating over a debt that Fowler
attempted to collect from White. Ho

The case against Snureeon Rnrbee

was continued until next Friday. It
will be remembered that Sheriff Fow

The stories coming out from Wash

the opposition of the four power

about Mr. Wilson that many people
