NO NOMINATIONS.

The conference or convention OF
conservatives or whatever you may
call it, which met in Columbia on
Monday night made no nomina-
tions, adopted a series of resolu-
tons and adjourned. Nomina-
tions however may be made later
on. This is what the Columbia
State says about the matter:
The action Of the convention is
not victory nor defeat for either
side. 1t comedies practically what
each asked. Had a stright issue
been made between nominations
and no nominations, nominations
would have been made by a large
majority. The action reached
means nominations a little latoI
with advantage of position.
News and Courier: After con.
siderable debate at 2 O'Clock a res
olution was introduced which solv.
ed the problem satisfactorily, and
after several fine speeches. by a
vote of 12O to 104, nominations
for State offices were postponed
but cot abandoned, the sense OF
the meeting being to await GER
tain DEVELOPMENTS.

of a State ticket by the Conserva-
tiyes at this late stage of the game
will be blunder Oh their part in
conceivably rash, and it would be
the best thing for the Reformers
that could possibly happen, and
will give them renewed lease OF
power in this State. We say this
out of no partizan zeal, but
simply because it strikes US as the
truth, and 80 patent that any man
of ordinary intelligence can see 1t.
OF course we do not believe there
is any intention Of calling in the
negro to settle white peoples affairs
in any emergency, no matter how
grave or great it may seem. II we
could conceive that this movement
had in contemplation the bringing
the negro into politics no denun'
citation would do justice to the sub.
iect, and it makes no difference
what faction or what following
should father it.

THE BEGINNING OF THE
END.

At the meeting of Conservatives
in the courthouse on last Satur.
day about sixty were in attendance
not an outpouring not a mass
meeting, but fairly respectable
crowd, so far as numbers we're con-
cerned, and eminently so SO far as
the individuals were concerned
Among others Gov. Sheppard was
in attendance but declined to be
delegate.
Mr.. R. A. Cochran was made
chairman, and without any speech
making or high-jinks of any kind,
quietly, decently, and in order, the
following delegates were elected to
go to Columbia: Thos. W. Calwile,
J. H. Brooks, Mark Toney, Thos. G.
Smith, A. J. Coleman, J. R. Beall,
w. S. Allen, F. A. Townsend, Thos.
Meriwether, H. G. Wright, Chas.
Hammond: J. H. Watson.
Now, what does all this mean?
What are the motives actuating
these eminently respectable citi-
zens? Do they intend to organize
an opposition party to the Democ-
racy of this State or do they only
intend to perfect and keep up their
own organization within the party
lines and for the fight of 1896?
If the first, they have made griev-
GUS mistake, if the last, they have
done only what they had perfect
right to do.
It IS fact that the nomination

any action until the Convention

fines it's position towards the Ma.
tional Democracy. We cannot
hope to make a winning fight on

show it's antagonism to the Nation.

justified in organizing separately"
From the Hon. M. P. Howell, Of
Colleton: 1T would be a grave
blunder to nominate State ticket
at this late day. Our people are
committed by the August prima-
ry, and would not, in my opinion
support any movement at this
time. The party should
be reorganized early in the spring
of 1896, and not before"
From the Hon. D. S. Henderson,
of Aiken: 81 am unalterably op'
posed to putting a State ticket in
the field. The Conven.
ton, in my judgment, after the ap'
pointment of q wise executive com.
mittee and the formulation and
promulgation OF modcr~se resolu'

The following is copy OF a CIT
eular letter that has been sent by
all leading cotton factors to the
merchants and cotton buyers
throughout the country: "The
cotton trade in this section were
obliged to pay heavy claims the
past season on account of the ex-
cessive bagging used in covering
the bales. The use of extra bag
ging has assumed such proportions
and caused US such loss we will be
forced the present season to dock
all bales 1-16 cents per pound
where covering in excess of the
customary six yards is used. The
American, English, and Continen-
tai spinners have alike protested
against this over use of bagglng,
and if persisted in, considerable
trouble will doubtless arise. Please
use your efforts with the planters
and ginners to have cotton baled
with only the usual two strips OF
Pix yards, of two pounds to the
yard" The farmers and ginners
throughout this section should
read the above paragraph careful
ly and act accordingly. The local
buyers will have to be governed
by it, and every farmer who uses
more than six yards of bagging on
a bale of cotton will certainly be
the loser.
