4 Timely Suggestion.

Local bal! players suggest that now, as
the clubs of Calumet, Hancock. Ontona-
gon and Baraga have proven themselves
quite evenly matched, that the citizens OF
these four towns unite In raising purse
for prizes in a base ball tournament TO
consist of series OF games In each Of the
four towns. Considerable enthusiasm
has been aroused oyei the games already
played, and a tournament would, IL Is
urged, bring out big crowds, and besides
benefiting each town by the outsiders 1t
would bring in. would return in gate
money a considerable portion of the sub
scription to those making it. BY divid-
ing the amount raised into prizes for the
first aud second clubs the interest would
be heightened aud from the showing
made in the games already played this
this season, It would be no walkaway for
any OF the four. The above embodies
the suggestions of several local enthusi-
asts and is thrown out by them in hope
that it will be taken up and acted upon
by some one able to carry the idea to a
successful conclusion County

If the State Convention which meets
to-day will just adopt Democratic
platform and put the State Democracy
in line with the National Democratic
party all will be well. Otherwise we
very much fear there is trouble ahead,
and lots of it. The convention which
meets to-day holds the key to political
peace and quiet in this State, and we
say this standing square against the
holding of another convention and the
nomination of another State ticket
than the one to be nominated to-day. It
should not be considered presumption
to hope and expect Democratic con-
yention to adopt a Democratic plat
form.

THE CONVENTION ADJoURNs.
AS there was nothing more TO be
done at 3.15 q. M. the Convention
adjourned, subject to the call of the
chairman. The actual Convention did
not sit for over quarter of 40 hour
and was model for harmonious con-
vention. Indeed, the whole thing was
done in the most decent and sober
manner.
The division as to the advisability of
making nominations at this time was
sharp, and not until the vote had fairly
progressed did many of the delegates
see that the prevailing idea of the
evening would be defeated. To two
speeches especially, as we'll as to the
character Of the resolutions, which by
the way were from Charleston, was the
turn in the tide brought about. 1t was
complete surprise to many, but no
| one is sore about it.
There was great oeal of earnestness
about the Convention, and when the
banner is raised, if at all, there will be
gallant and loyal army to march
under its folds. There is no question
about that.
When the next Convention is held
it is hoped every county will be
represented. During the Convention
Editor Williams introduced, but sub
sequently withdrew, resolution re-
garding the Constitutional Convention.
Most of the delegates returned to
their homes on the early morning

NO NOMINATIONS MADE.


The convention of Democrats that
was called to meet in Columbia on
Monday and to which Newberry sent
delegates was held.
The convention was called to coz
slider ard in its wisdom decide what
was best to be done. One of the chief
questions to be discussed was the one
of nominating a State ticket to be
voted for in opposition to the one to be
nominated to-day by the State conven-
ton. On that pont Fhe Herald and
News and New berry County are on
record. Our delegates had positive and
direct instructions.
4 conference was held before the con-
vention met to consult together and
determine upon the best course to be
pursued after getting the united wis
dom of those who were present. The
convention was composed for the most
part of earnest, patriotic men, who
wanted only to subserve the best in
terests of South Carolina. After fully
comforting and consulting it was decid-
ed not to make nominations at least
for the present.
The Herald and News is glad this de-
cision was reached. Our opinion is un-
changed that it would have been a
great mistake to have nominated a
State ticket and really we do not be-
lieve that any good practically will re-
sasplt from holding the convention at
this sins- Yet it is fact that many
good and true men from all parts of the
State were heartily in favor of making
straight fight in the general election,
and many OF them quiet and deter
mined men, who are not seeking Office
or political preferment.
We sincerely trust that the conven.
ton which meets to-day will be mod.
crate and temperate in tone, and as q
Democratic convention, will do moth
ing unDemocratic, so as to give excuse
for another convention. This is criti-
cal period in the history of this State,
and great responsibility rests upon the
organized Democratic party and the
members of the convention to meet to.
day should be patriotic enough to rise
above prejudice and factional divls.
ions and plant itself fatty and squarely
upon Democratic principles.
The Herald and News does not want
tosee another convention called, and we
hope there will be no proyocation for
it. ..
Ourpeople have had enough Of poll
tics and conventions and we want to
get to business. There is no sense in
this continued strife. There is need to
bear and forbear with one another. The
conditions now are not similar to the
conditions in 1876, aud~as white men
and brethren who differ let US settle
these differences. Much depends on
the action of the State Convention
which meets to-day. May it be com.
posed of men of wisdom and patrio.
tism and men who shall act as be-
comes South Carolinlans.
The Newberry herald and news. (Newberry, S.C.) 1884-1903, 1894-09-19

The convention on Saturday did the
wise thing in putting itself against
nominations and it was the united wis.
dom Of a majority of the delegates who
assembled III Columbia on Monday
that it would be unwise to nominate 8
State ticket. It was we'll that New.
berry sent delegates, for if those eoun.
ties that opposed nominations had re.
mained away, nominations would have
been preeipitated and a hopeless and
useless fight been forced upon us.

offer myself to the voters of the 3ro

for seat in the next Congress. From
my boyhood, all my sympathies and
affiliations have been with the Demo
cratic party, and I stand to-day square,
ly upon the platform of that party az
adopted at Chicago in June, 1892. As
a worker in the ranks, have stood by
the party in its dark and gloomy days,
taking my share, and some Of my
friends say more than my share, of the
dangers and responsibilities, which be.
set US in the times when it meant

crat. / have never sympathiZed with
nor encouraged any of the isns which
have sprung up, and which enemies of
the party, in the guise of friends, have
undertaken to engraft into the party
platform, and feel now the great i'm
portance of this district being repre-
sented in Congress by a Democrat,
whose heart and principles are sound
to the core.
The only hope for the peace which
follows in the wake of prosperity is
through the Democratic party. If our
people will rise up now, and place the
standard Of the party in the hands of
men loyal to the principles and true to
the pledges of the party, prosperity
Will smile upon US. and peace will
reign in all our. hearts.
BelieviDg-ss I do, that the best and

party, whose principles ar" 30 clearly

standing upon that platform, and pledge
TO the people of the Third district, nv

possess, if they honor me With their:

There are the widest ruInors ahoat
concerning the vote of the missing pre-

fraud are made. Com nication was
cut oft temporarily with Owens and

cry went forth that the Owens men

this may be, there is now little doubt
that Owens is nominated by safe
