war of 1912, and those engaged in all the
wars during that period.
Mr.. Savage insisted that the honor and

and disgrace if they were not so rewarded

LAST NIGHTS REPORT.
GOVERNORS MESSAGE.


CHARLESTON, Nov %.
The Message of Gov. Aston to the Legislature
of S. C. was delivered to>day. The message is
conservative in tone and concise and well written.
1t calls the attention of the Legislature to the du
ty of electng a U. S. Senator in the place of Sem
atOr Evans; refers in tones Of cOugratulatiOn to
the progress of the railroads and other internal
improvements of the State recommends the in
yestment of southern capital more in southern inn
proyements and less in northern securities refers
in terms of disapproYal to ineendiary resolutions
against slavery by free State Legislatures, declar
ing such resolutions un1eserying of a response,
and exhortiDg the State to cultivate moral, viru-
Gus industry, domestic habits. and to observe
scrupulously all the federal obligations.
He then refers to the recent slavery cases as
presenting in strong relief the devotion to law
and order of the people of South Carolina; but
expresses regret at their occurrence productive
of unwonted excitement.
He questions the propriety Of interfering with
the commerce of the inhabitants of Cuba, and
expresses the belief that while the navy of the o.
S. may, under the Constitution, be charged with
preventing the slave trade between the coast Of
Africa and our own shores, it is policy to let for
eign nations regulate their own affairs and enforce
their own policy.
The remainder Of the message is confined to
State policy, recommending among other things a
repeal Of she usury laws.

Boston BAND CoNcERT.-We were fearful
when we saw the unfavorsbe state of the weather,
and the lawful condition of our streets last night
that those exquisite musicians, the members Oi
Halls Boston Band, would play to thin audience,
but we much underrated the regard our citizens had
for good music and for the Cleveland Grays, for
the MelOdeon was thoroughly filled with select
and first class audience. The programme was car
ried out in splendid style. Miss Davis was hearth
ly eneorsd, and brought down the house with thun'
ders of applause. Likewise did the brothers Hail
in their solos on the bugle and clarionet. Conant
inlhis violin solo, did wonders. The Boston Brass
are Cleveland's favorites
