Quoted in very different style from
that which will be called for the pur-
pose Of choosing county officials.
There will be no conflicting interests

1t is understood that a meeting of
the County Executive Committee will
be called on Tuesday, Immediately af-
ter the convention, at which time tt e
date for the next primary election will

be issued. The change from the Craw-
ford system to that of a convention,
which was ordered by majority of
the voters of the Democratic party last
year, takes the party back TO the plan
of choosing nominees which was
vogue previous to the adoption of that
system; and it will be novelty TO q
large number of voters who have be-
come such during the past few Years.
Instead OF forcing those who aspire 20

bearing the names of delegates who
will be favorabl to them, and asking

MOODI'S BIRTHDAY GIFT.
FRIENDS OF the Evangelist viii Pro.
sent Him With IL Chanel

An event OF considerable interest
'rd Importance in the life of Dwight
|. Moody will take place on February
>, when Mr.. Moody will be sixty years
'd. number OF his friends are
working 20 raise IL fund of $25, 900 to
erect Il chapel for the famous summer
school At Northiicld, and 1t Is conf
IDENTIFY expected by tho committee that
tho whole sum will bc raised by Feb
ruary 5, SO that the chapel NAV be pre-
scntcd as Il birthday gift.
MIR. Moody's English friends also arc
deeply Interested in this matter, and
the Rev. DR.. NJ. b. Meyer, the cole
DRAFTED English evangelist who will
arrive in Now York February 3, has
been especially active. Tho purpose
Is TO raise half Of tho amount in each
country. Dr.. Meyer, writing from
London recently, expressed the feeling
Of MIR. Moody's English friends as fol,
lows For years he has wished for
TINS (the chapel) and it ought not to
be difficult to raiso that amount for
one to " HON we are oil under obligation,
VINO has never asked sixpence for him
self"
The chapel, when built, will practi-
chlly complete the chain OF NOrthficld
school buildings which has Teen evolv-
ca during the past fifteen years. The
lcrcnccs have become famous. Some
OF tho most prominent religious speak
crs and workers in tho world haye
necn heard in the large NorthGcld
meetings. This pleasant Massachusetts
town has become tho gathering placo
Tor hundreds Of young people, and the
student conferences, one or tho most
recent Ideas, have been vcry success
full.
The Northield Seminary for Young
Women was the first Institution start,
cd there by Mr.. Moody. About I0O
students were enrolled last season,
Three courses OF study are offered
the college preparatory course, tho
general course, ailOrding larger scopo
IN electives, and the English course.
The seminary iS nOn-sectariun. Since
II was established, in 1879, the number
OF students enrolled has been / 07G.
Inc tuition Is 500 u year, but the cost
OF each pupil is about 5000, tho deficit
being made up by subscriptions.
Inc skinner gymnasium was opencd
IN September, 1895. 1t contains q
bowling alley, swimming tank, dress
eng rooms, running track and modern
atnictlc apparatus.
Inc conferences began in n small
way In 1880, and have grown every
year. The student conferences is now
nc'a during tho last week in Jane and
lrst week in July, and the young wo-
mems con terence is held in the latter
part OF July. There is also a workera,
conference, especially for Bible teach
ers,, and great attention is also given

EVANS LAST OFFI CIAL ACT.
Ills Appeal for the Completion or tho
Confederate Records

The following message is the last
official act Of John Gary Evans as
Governor OF South Carolina, and is
crcdltablC as the closing feature OF his
administration
Gentlemen OF tho General Assembly:
The report Of the com .nssiOncr aud
historian Of tho Confederate records,
which will be printed and laid upon
your tables, has just been handed me,
having been delayed by the severe
| illness OF General II. l., Farley, the
COnmi SsiOncr.
| IL enters into all details connected
with the work, showing both its cx-
tent and Importance, which are apt to
Dc overlooked by casual observer.
1T shows that great deal has been ac-
complishcd with what was then con-
sldercd by many rs IL totally made
qnatc appropriation, and that under 81
contract to tho "l0wcst bidder" work
which was considered impossible has
been done.
General Farley also shows that IL
large amount Of valuable manuscript
work has been and is being accumulate
ed, which in tho future will become in
valuable.
submit tho report to tho general
assembly, regarding you as tho best
J"..S W ''i' aihouHI 10 Do appfO-
prlatcd, but would commend this work
to your kindcst consideration, because
it is too valuable to be lost or to be
neglected.
] would recommend that tho amount
suggested in his report Of at least $500
10 complete the printing Of the rolls,
be granted and that such sum rs your
body may think proper TO be 81 ivcn him
20 look after the matter, which will be
delayed by reason OF the failure OF the
appropriation.
Tho contract with Mr.. Wilson, as
the "l0wcst biGdcr," was made under
my approval, and aS &c has properly
equipped himself for the work. and is
doing it so chcaply, F.o is fairly entitled
to finish the job, which in all probabil-
lty no other printer would undertake
now, the great bulk Of it having been
done. The balance which will be due
to General Farley, ae historian, when
he has finished and delivered his manu-
scripts, should be placed in the trca-
sury, subject to the terms and condi-
tlons OF the original act.
In conclusion, would say that this
important work shOul be pcrscvcrcd
IN until is an accomplished fact. The
State can and will alio"d to be not only
just but generous to the Confederate
cause and soldiers, and as General
Farley Vas one Of them, with a gallant
record as such and besides has faith
fully served the State in many other
ways, you ought undoubtedly to put it
in his power to finish this work with
credit to the State and honor credit
and profit to himself, without tagging
over the cost. Respectfully,
JOHN GARY EVANS.
Governor.

Liquor Can Be Imported for Personal Use.
THE u. S. SUPREME COURT SUS.
- TAINS SlNIONTON.

Tho Highest Legal Tribunal in the
Land Holds That the Interstate
Commerce Feature OF Our Dispcn-
sary Law is Null and Void-Justice
Brown Disscnts on High Ground.
The Supreme Court of tho United
States has decided that the portion of
the South Carolina Dispensary law
which provides for the inspection Of
liquors imported in the State to be in
contravention to the constitution OF
the United States. The opinion,
which had been prepared by Justice
Shiras, was stated very briefly by
Chief Justice Fuller. The written
opinion is very elaborate document,
but tho O. .ef Justice gave very brief
synopsis of it, declining afterwards to
give the documcn to the public.
The cases at bar were begun in the
Federal court for South Carolina by
James Donald, a citizen of this State,
upon tho seizure OF q case OF California
claret, six bottles of Maryland whiskey
and barrel Of Rochester. N. Y, beer,
by S. M: Gardner, M. II. Holly, Sr., e.
C. Beach and J. M. Scott, State con-
stables, acting under the provisions OF
Vllo uiSpcuStIy lu" ulFtCLlnR the
seizure of all the liquors in the hands
of any common carrier, agent or pri-
vate citizen, not sold by the State
agent, whether imported or other
wise. The trial court gave Donald
judgment for $500 in each case and the
constables appealed. The cases were
argued last fall, tie validity OF the on
tire law being brought into question.
Tho orinion OF the court stated that the
procc edirgs were not suit against
tie State, which could not be brought
without its consent. and that the plead
inga Of tho record raised questions
which gave TIE Supreme Court the
Unit,d States jurisdiction Of the whole
subject. Tao Law was discussed at
great length in the opinion and many
authorities cited. the result being that
.he judgment Of the court below in
favor OF the owner Of the liquors was
a1irmed with costs, for the reason that
ne law was in contravcntion Of the
clause OF tho national constitution re-
gntallng commerce between the States.
lhc opinion conceded that the legis!a-
'ture of the State passed the law in

decision Of tho Court practically kills
