instructed by the Democrats of his
county to inquire whether clubs
having a membership of less than
twenty-five should be disbanded.
Chairman Irby said that it was
his impression that no county con-
vention should allow a delegate from
a club which had a membership Of
less than twenty-five. 1t was the
business of county conventions how.
ever, to pass upon that question.
On motion Of MIR. Douglass the
rules Of 1892 were adopted as the
rules for this year, a few changes
being made in dates, etc. The first
primary will take place ON the last
Tuesday in August, the 2Sth.
A resolution was introduced
authorizing the treasurer to pay the
mileage of the members of the COM
mittee.
No election of officers was held, as
that is not done until the counties
select new members of the committee.
On motion Of Colonel Neal, Secre-
tary Tompkius was authorized to
furnish each county with 100 copies
of the rules and Constitution of the
party.
Colonel Nilsson introduced the fol-
lowing resolution which was laid on
the table:
"Resolved. That all candidates for
United States Senate, Congress and
State Offices be required to file with
the Secretary of his committee writ
ten pledges to abide the result of tie
August primaries, the pledge to be
filed not later. than the 18th of June,
1894, and that no candidate be allow
ed to enter the race for any Office after
that date"
The following resolution, intro
duced by MIR. Mellette, cause much
laughter:
"%Inasmuch 90 we feel that the
executive committee of the Demo.
cratic party in South Carolina we are
not only the active force in formula
ting and carrying out the plans. and
principles of our party, but are
charged with the duty of preserv-
ing perfect adherence to the party,

"Resolved, That we feel it our
duty to instruct each county chair
man to have the following question
asked directly through the press and
at every. campaign meeting to all
candidates for State and national
Offices
"Will you support and do you

Democratic party adopted at Chicago

On motion of Colonel Neal, the
resolution was tabled.

ed some merriment by suggesting that
the resolution be referred to Presi-
dent Cleveland for his approval.

next man was M. F. Tighe, the
private secretary of the Senator.
Treasurer Willie Jones sat on the
left.
Chairman Irby had a cigar in his
mouth and spent a few minutes in
reading some letters ON his desk.
On instruction of the chairman,
Secretary Tompkins read the roll of
members. The majority of the regu-
lar members who were absent had
t~elegraphed and had substitutes III
their places. The following was the
roll as made up:

The chairman announced that q
quorum was present and that the CON-
mittee was ready for business.
Dr. Sampson Pope moved, and the
motion was carried, that a steno-
grapher be appointed. He moved
that NJ. F. Tighe act as stenographer.
This motion was carried. DR. Pope
thought that it was exceedingly i'm.
portant that a stenographer be en-
ployed.
Chairman Irby suggested that the
session should be a secret enc as i'm
portant business was to be con.
sidered. He said he would entertain
a motion to this effect.
No motion was made for awhile on
the strength of this suggestion, but
eventually it was made. Senator
Finley offered the motion. saying that
there was nothing to be hid in the
work of the committee. The motion
to exclude reporters. against whom it
was intended. was finally withdrawn
Chairman 1rby thought that the
first business would be the fixing of
dates for the campaign meetings.
General Gray Of G%reenville moved
that a committee of five be appointed
to fix dates.
Hon. D. E. Finley of York offered
as a substitute a schedule which he
had arranged and which was as fol-
lows:
