General Lee Il Good Manager

Washington, July 9.-Unitcd
States Consul General Lee has
been rendering some account to
the government of his expenditures
from the fund appropriated by
congress for the relief of destitute
Americans in Cuba. His figures
were presented to the cabinet to-

total of $4,000 at the disposal
of the general he had expended
only SO, 900, and vet had gi"cn
substantial relief to every distress
ed American whom he could find
ready to receive aid, and besides

AT MAYFIELD.
The Barnwell Man Trying to Get
to the Senate on State Issues
A Hand Primary.

Hampton, July l2.-Thc cam
paign meeting at Hampton started
little late. The audience mum
bcred about 800 and was good
humored.
Senator McLaurin held Il hand
primary on his policy. There
was Il good hand raising-about
half.
Senator lrbv laughed over the
hand primary, and said after to-
day 5 experience McLaurin would
not have any more hand primaries.
He said he never went into any
combination of any kind, and as
to JusticG Mclvcr, he voted and
and worked for him and would do
so now.
Mavhcld denied he was i'm any
senatorial combination to defeat
him. In MayiicId : speech he said
he was stronger mentally and
physically to represent the people.
There was good chatting. but some
Missed. Thcrcupon MavlicId Jump
ed ON the hisscrS with Justice.
There were few who did this.
MayticId said he never wanted any
one to say he was in combination,
for that was untrue.
In answer to Mayticld' ; questions
McLaurin said that he was in fa-
'vor of the Latimer bin Because he
felt if the dispcnsarv should be
repealed, 1t ought to bc bv the
Legislature amt not by congress-
ionaI enactment. NnvhcId opp"o-
cd the Latimcr bill. MrI.aurin
said that it was Il State issue and
should not bc dragged in.
Maylicld said that the State had
no business in the liquor business.
Gov Evans had farmcr PorS
trc~s to contend with, who asked
him frequent questions. lie told
the audience to pay no attention
to newspaper, and not TO notice
editorials in McSwccncy's paper.
He said McLaurin WAS fooIing the
people. He argued on cotton ties
and said Mclaurin's ideas would
lead to 40 PER cent. more Federal
tax on farmers of the state.
Shortly after ,, Colonel Irby
began speaking. He sad the
three politicians were the slickcst
ever seen. This was the first
meeting among farmers. He
said McLaurin would he sick of
politics before he got through.
He started out in a jovial man

SENATOR MLAURIN.

Mr. McLaurin spoke briefly, on
account of indisposition, and got
off some Jokes on the disturbing
shrimp. lie said Senator Irby
could hetter have. told what he did
in the senate than what he did in
state politics. If he had done so
much to confuse things, let him
remain here to straightcn them
out. He said he knew nothing Of
politicians. He said he would
not participate in TRADE OF abuse
OF anyone or anything. 50 far as
the newspapers went, he was in
no deal and had no understanding.
The papers ran their business to
suit themselves, rs farmers did.
1t was plain business matter with
them. He felt he had been I'm
Justly treated at times, but, gen
orally speaking, newspapers and
reporters were honest and fair,
and he wanted no one hanged or
drowned.
MIR PentlsS asked him what

swift class of politicians. He
spoke of how in Barnwell. and
Denmark he vas repeatedly and
without opposition elected by his
people. When the effort was
made to place Charleston in the
black district he had opposed the
plan. He spoke at length on his
dispensary views, speaking in fa-
vor OF restrictive sales, but against
State management. He said he
had advised that the State would
lose its case, and WAS satisfied that
the NandcrcocL dccIsiou would
stand.
Some one suggested that he
run for governor on his platform,
which was appIaudcd, and ne said
he wanted to 20 to the senate,
where he could do more rood.
He opposed McLaurin's tariff
views in sensible talk, and said
he was Il Rcformcr and one who
had always been outspokcn.
EVANS TALK.
Before Governor Evans got up
he was handed this typewriter
question:
''Dear Sir: How can YOU cX-
pect the support of yor fellow
citizens. when by your seton YOU
deprived old Charleston of the
right of oclf-govcrnmcnt-a right
held most sacred by the Anglo.
Saxon race! Explain this to us.
We ask it most respectfully.
"Many Citizens.
Gov Evans said this was back
issie. Fle would not answer an
anonymous note, but if any one
would come out and father the
question he would argue the mat
ter. The Qucstioncr did not pre-
sent himself.
Gov Evans mixed up consider
able ridiculc with his tariff argu-
meat. Mr. McLaurin several time,
interrupted, with consent, to make
corrections, and Governor Evans
sail NhLaurin would always find
some way to wrigglc out. He
said McLaurim would have never
been @ivcn his committee appoint-
mentS, but. for his tariff views.
and Mr. McLaurin said Reed did not
know his views when he was ap-
pointed; but was informed while
on the committee. The negro pa
per commended McLaurIn for
having, together with Wigg, kill
ed the separate coach bill. He
quoted from northern newspapers,
claiming McLaurin rs Il protec-
zionist, and McLaurin said he was
not responsible for this, neither
did he make the speech mentioned
that the south loafed and loitcrcd
about Calhoun's S grave. Mr. Evans
cited the papers with the clippings.
Evans SAID he did notnor would
he let his friends ask or write
Governor Ellerbe for the appoint
ment, although endorsed by 40, =
600 voters. AS to using the
Shepperson cotton facts. he said
they we're nevertheless facts, and
he was glad to use them, as they
were unanswerable. He ridiculcd
McLaurin's tariff views and init
mated that McLaurin was trying

matters. (McLaurin said they

what he had done in the hope OF
