IN GOLDEN STATE sTYLE.


PHILADELPHIA, June 16.-The Califor-
mia delegation arrived in a blaze of glory
tonight, with flags, band Of music and
considerable enthusiasm for Irving NJ. Scott
for Vice President. They went to the
Colonade Hotel and prepared TO dispense
hospitality in characteristic California
style. Col. George A. knight. of San Fran
cisco, and ex-Mayor Pardee, Of Oakland,
are among the well-known men in the
delegation. The Californians were the first
of the State delegations to hold caucus,
meeting at 10 p. m. to select officers. Judge
w. c. Van Fleet was elected national COM
mitteeman, and the others were as follows:
Committee on resolutions. DR.. Chester A.
Rowell; committee on credentials George
w. Reed: committee rules and order of
business, r. D. Robbins; committee on noti-
fcation of candidates. w. NJ. Garland.
The delegation took no formal action as
to whom 1t will support for the vice pres-
idential nomination, but will look over the
ground and hold another caucus on Monday
afternoon at 5 o'clock for the purpose of
deciding upon a candidate.

CONTESTS DISPOSED OF.
Only the Alabama Case Left-Addicks-
Dupont Fight Left for Convention.

PHILADELPHIA. June 1e.-The Repub-
lican national committee was in session
from IL a. m. until almost p. m. to-day.
A variety of subjects were disposed of, and
when the committee adjourned all the con-
tests over seats in the national convention
except those from the State OF Alabama
had been put behind it. The Alabama
case has been revived upon an agreement
between the two factions to divide the dele
cation by the elimination of contesting
delegates. And this work will be COM
pleted at meeting of the committee to
be held next Monday. In three districts Of
the State a settlement was reached to-
day, but there are still several other dis
tricts and the State at large to receive at
tention. Other contests disposed of during
the day were those covering the State of
Texas and several Of the districts of that
State as well as the Norfolk district in Vir-
ginia and Committeeman Hills old district
in Mississippi. In Hills district one dele
gate Of each faction was seated, while in
the Virginia district former Congressman
Bowden carried OF the honors in opposition
to John S. Wise.
Representative Hawley won the fight for
delegates at large from Texas in opposition
to E. H. S. Green. Some of the district
delegates were given to the Green faction,
but the Hawley people claim that, taking
the delegation as 1t stands. they have
majority. This probably means that Mr..
Hawley will be chosen to represent Texas
in the national committee.
The Delaware controversy between the
Addicks and Dupont factions was tempor-
arily shelved by the committee. Mr. Du-
points followers were found to be willing to
make such concessions as the committee
could accept. and the committee decided
that there was no course open to 1t which
would insure the State to the Republican
party at the fall election except to exclude
both factions from participation In the
early proceedings Of the convention. The
disposition will have the effect of throw
ing the adjustment OF the case upon the
national convention committee on creden-
tials.
Just before adjournment for the day the
committee disposed Of Mr.. Payne's resolu-
ton regarding the participation of federal
oficeholders in the selection Of delegates
by referring them all to Chairman Hanna.
It is believed by Mr.. Payne that the effect
of this disposition of the resolution will
be to hold it over the heads of offenders
In the future, and that 1t will thus have q
beneficial influence even though IT was not
acted on by the committee.
Mr.. Tiepke. Of Rhode Island, offered q
resolution during the afternoon for a re-
duction Of representation in Congress OF
States where the free exercise OF the elect
i've franchise il prevented. It was debated
at some length, but was tabled because OF
the generally expressed opinion that the
subject was one for the action OF the ma
tional convention and not for the commit
tee. It Is understood that Mr.. Tiepke win
ask the committee on resolutions to con-
slider the wisdom Of Incorporating the reso-
lutisu IN the convsnt1pn p1a<form. \ you-

MATERIAL FOR SPECULATION.
Vice Presidential Possibilities the
Chief Topic Of Discussion.

PHILADELPHIA. June 16.-If 1t were not
for the uncertainty over the vice presidency
there would be absolutely nothing to re-
lieve the monotony of the Republican gath
ering in Philadelphia. With the presidency
long since settled. all interest centers in
second place. The multiplicity Of names
advanced as candidates. the incidental dis
cussion OF many others who are not yet
classed and the absolute uncertainty over
the outcome gives the rank and file ma
terial for much speculation.
During the day the vice presidential ques-
ton seemed to revolve around New York.
This does not mean that New York Is to
settle the contest In any way. but the posi-
ton Of the State. with four men available
for candidates, the feeling In some quar-
ters that political considerations should

The Beers are being overpow-
cred by the British. They
fought nobly and are still con-
testing every inch Of ground, but
if the reports are true, they have
about spent themselves and will
be forced to surrender soon. The
Britons will, of course, win, but
it is the costliest victory that has
ever been won by any nation, and
while victory will perch upon
England's banners, there is no
glory whatever in the victory for
her. England has proven herself
the inferior in point Of general
ship; her men do not measure up
to the Beers as fighters, nor is
the defeat of the Beers to be at
tributed to any other cause than
the overwhelming power OF su-
perior numbers. The dispatches
report General Cronje, one of the
best of Boer generals, surround
/ ed, and if it be true, the English
have a decided advantage, pro
viding they can keep Cronje sur
rounded. Butler has captured
Hlangwaue Hill and has turned
the Boer flank: he expects to
capture the railroad at Colenso.
Butler has had a queer expert
|ence in the capturing business
and he may find that it is not an
easy task to hold that which he
takes.

Cotton and Good Roads.
SditOr The Manning Times:

Editor The Manning Times:
In your issue of this week YOU advise
the farmers 10 secure provision crop,
and then make every pound OF cotton
possible.
Your reason for giving such advise
YOU say is for the reason that the short
crop this year will insure a good price
next season. Further. for the reason
that IF all of our whole States crop
was knocked out it would not affect the
price. a great deal. South Carolina cuts
:, small figure in making the price of
| cotton. but that is regulated by the
quantity made in Texas. &c. y
Now to this disparaging statement |
object, and l am confident you did not
mean to be serious when YOU wrote the
remark.
l have not been honored by the re-
ceipt of one of the Department OF Agrl-
cultures Year Books for 1898, but hav-
ing borrowed one from 4 certain post
master, have been reading it a little.
We poor old farmers living far away
from the madning crowd read any old
thing even to L. S. Department OF
Agriculture Reports. Now If You will
turn to page 6S3 of the above year book
YOU will find some figures on the cotton
crop of the I. S. There 1t IS stated
five States made over million bales
each in 1898 Alabama, Georgia.
Mississippi. South Carolina and Texas
and South Carolina fourth in the five.
The crop OF 1898 was l0,S91, ,S3l
commercial bale. South Carolina made
!. .O3O. .0S5 Texas 1922. 40S. You see now
what small figure" the little one
horse State cuts.
Now lets take the present crop. At
the beginning of the season crop OF
II. 100000 bales was the figure and the
price opened at less than 53c in our
community. Now the crop is not ex-
pected to 90 much over 100000 bales.
4 shortage of 100000 from the calcu-
lation. The price of the stuff has gone
up Sc. Reasoning from this, it would
appear that a shortage of 100000
! bales would send the price at least l3c.
up. Or in other words, South CaIolina 5
crop is between ninth or tenth OF the
production taking an average on the
crops of 1869. So, if the present sea-
son 5 rise can be taken as an index OF
what a known shortage in the crop will
do with the price, then should South
Cardinals fields be blasted so as not to
produce a bale during the year. cotton
would rise in price &c or more. But.
of course. that is still q small figure to
some people. 49,
1t may interest some TO know that
