MONEY MARKET FACTORS.

The banks have gained n large amount OF money
from the Sub-Treasury this week. the total since
Friday night amounting to S.i73.s72 The actuai
gain in cash last week was not reflected In the
bank statement but the chances are that ootn iast
weeks and this weeks gain will be shown in cash
holdings. Special operations not affecting the gen
eral supply of money at this centre were in great
part responsible for the contradictory exhibit MADE
last week by the cumbersome and ancient system OF
averages used by the Clearing House Association
There is plenty of money at this centre. and bank
ers believe that the supply continue to increase
for long time to come. Sterling exchange con-

FLORENCE HAS
STREET RAIL WAY
Mayor Newkirk Threw First
ShoveIfuI of Dirt.
ANOTHER STEP FORWARD.

At 9:35 this morning ground
was officially broken for the con-
structien of the Florence street
car system to be operated by the
Florence Electric Street Railway
company. Mayor Newkirk, after
few we'll chosen remarks. scooped
out the first shovelful of dirt from
the center of the grade and thus
declared the beginning of the con-
struction of the line certainty
The shovel was handed to him by
Senator James A. McCandless.
Three cheers were afterward given
in honor of the mayor and three
for Thomas Robinson, the promo
ter of the deal.
The affair was witnessed by a
representative lot of men, whose
faith is ever pinned to the growth,
advancement and upb uilding of
Florence.
Among others present were the
directors and officers of the road
Senator McCandless, Mayor New
kirk, Alderman Albert Guilinger,
Attorneys Champion and
Warner, Henry j. Arnold, j. w.
Yelton A B. McFall, city engineer,
R. l.. Kelly. chief engineer for the
company, w. D. White, who has
the grading contract, and score
of others who were interested in
seeing the beginning of so i'm
portant an enterprise
For the present, awaiting the
completion of the new East Second
street bridge, the rails will be laid
from the Santa Fe branch to the
present bridge on East Second
street. Sixty pound rails will be
used, and the line will be at
tached to the Santa Fe branch SO
that shipments can be transferred
onto the electric car line.
The new bridge which will span
Sand creek on Second street, will
be eighty feet wide, or the full
width of the street, fifty feet long
with FIVE foot girders.
M. j. White & Co. have the
contract for the grading from the
Santa Fe branch TO the bridge on
East Second street, which is about
800 feet The location for the
power house is not yet determined.
There isn't question but that the
work will now proceed and the
people Of Florence are assured of
the fact that the city will possess
an electric street car line. Mayor
Newkirk, in his speech, said that
he thought that it was one of the
most important enterprises of the
city.
The original incorporators and
officers are as follows:
j. B. Meserve, president; III. A.
Cook, vice president; Harry Robin
son, secretary; James Reed and

board will remain the same with

SITUATION IS
MOST CRITICAL
Lord Kitchener Is In the Heart
of Disaffecfed District.
GENERAL REBELLION SURE

London, Dec. 26-The situation
at Cape Colony is now hanging in
the balance. According to the
Posts Cape Town correspondent,
the disloyal Dutch inhabitants are
making it hot for the British
posts. Fifteen hundred have
joined the Boer forces in the
jamestown district alone, and re-
Inducements can arrive none too
soon. A Cape Town dispatch de-
scribes the raiders as doing little
harm and as being rapidly inclosed
by Kitchener's combine.
Lord Kitchener is now in the
heart of the disaffected district.
He is bringing down thousands of
troops from the North. 1t is said
that the loyalists demand that
martial law be proclaimed through
out Cape Colony, but this is not
practicable as there are not troops
enough to enforce it.
The Mails Cape Town corres-
pondent quotes local paper as
saying that never before were the
Beers 80 far south nor the situa-
tion graver. A responsible colon
ist who had just travelled from
Uppington to Humanfdorf is
credited with saying that ninety
per cent. of the people in the
country districts are simply wait
ing the arrival of the Beers as the
signal for a general rebellion.

HILL FOR BRYAN.

The speech made before the
Democratic meeting at Syracuse,
N. Y, by ex-senator D. B. Hill
attracting very general attention
as it puts that astute leader in line
as an advocate of Bryan.
Referring to the speech, the New
York Journal said:
Democrats who listen to David
B. Hills speech at Syracuse says
he came out almost unequivocal-
ly for the denomination of Bryan.
"There is no question as to who
is to be our candidate for the
Presidency. 1t will be Bryan by
reclamation. And l shall be on
the firing line, fighting for him I'M
til the polls close.

THE RACE.

"They are off, was the cry that
went up in the Shoe String DIS
trlct Tuesday April 2 little
after 2 when starter Yoste and
committee lowered the flag. 1t was
an even start and the efforts of the
three young thorougbreds who are
making the race for congression-
al honors will be the watched with
much interest by their many adj
mirers in the district. Each is
confident of winning and the start
shows they are allowing no grass to
grow under their feet.
The first quarter was reached
last Thursday at Greenwood, and
from the reports that came from
the citizens OF that part OF the
Shoe String track each candidate
displayed good wind and speed
Being Mr.. Humphreys home
county, OF course he was the
favorite, but there was great ad-
mlration displayed for Judge
Henry and Mr.. Hebron, as they
came in sight and were loudly
cheered as they passed. All three
candidates, from the start made,
will develop interest as they run
and wherever they pass large
crowds will cheer their efforts.
We don't look tor them here be-
fore June, but when they come a
large crowd will no doubt well
come their appearance and send
them off in high spirits on the
home stretch.

PRIMARY vs.. CONVENTION.

The action of the State Demo
cratic Executive Committee il
calling for a primary election t.
select delegates to the Democratic
National Convention at Kansas
City, is II farce on Democracy
Personally, we have always favor
ed the primary in the selection o.
State and County officers. Blu
when it comes to selecting officers
honorarY-without pay, that will
cost the taxpayers of county OF
State q round sum for holding
these elections, when it could have
been done as in the past as salts
factory and without expense, we
oppose it and believe the people
will endorse our position.
1t cannot be possible that this
committee has departed from the
old convention custom of Demo
cracy for fear that some advocate
of the gold standard would be Sc
lected as a delegate. If it is, they
are misled for we do not know of
one who wants it, still if there is,
they are democratic enough, if
elected, to carry out the wishes of
the people. We trust the I or
troubled minds of the men who got
it up will receive comfort
from the fact that they
have wrung from the pockets OF
the taxpayers, the money neces-
sary to carry on this political
farce.
In the selection of men to rep
resent State. in our National
Convention, those only should be
selected who are Democrats and
have its party success at heart
and will reflect the States wishes
of their people. To secure such
men convention is the means by
which to do it, for unless the re-
representatives. selected endorse the
platform framed and will vote
for it, another can be chosen.
This is democracy.
The committee, no doubt, by
this time have seen their mista Ike
and should call another meeting to
recind their action, and insert in
it's stead a Democratic Convention,
to be held in June. at jackson.
1t is never too late to do right,
especially IN this case, where they
made no provisions to relieve
themselves Of office.

Encampment of STATE National Guard

For several weeks there has
been talk on our streets of secur-
ing the encampment of the Nat
ional Guards in this city next
August. No permanent steps
were taken as to raising the money
$4,000 to secure it until last Mon
day night. Adjutant Gen. Henry
who had arrived in the city that
day, went out in company with
Mayor Yerger, Capt. Sam Mont
gomery Mai. B. u. Hum
phreys and N. Goldstein, to see
the proposed grounds which had
been selected for the encampment
and was so we'll pleased that he
remained over in the city that
night, on invitation, to address
the citizens as to the benefits and
pleasure the city would derive
from the encampment. About
Z o'clock that evening Prof. Som
mer's Silver Cornet Band, gave
a concert in honor of General
Henery in front of the hall, which
was highly appreciated. The
assemblage at the hall was
called to order by Mr. Goldsteln,
who explained the object Of the
meeting and introduced Gen.
Henry to the large audience of
business men present.
Gen. Henry, in a short talk,
said he had come to offer to Green
vile the refusal of the encamp-
ment this year and all he asked
was that the town care for the
soldier boys during their stay.
The speech and proposition were
both we'll received, judging from
the endorsement given it by the
talks that followed and the volun-
tary contributions of 500 by
several business firms of the city.
A committee consisting of N. Gold
stein, j. B. Hebron, Joe Vein
berg, Jake Scott, and Cas-. Halter,
were appointed to call on differ
ent business houses in the city to
raise the amount required.
The Times heartily endorses the
holding of the state encampment
in Greenville provided it can be
done without drawing to heavily
from the bank accounts of our
business men. To us it looks like
the selling of privileges on the
ground will raise at least three
thousand dollars of the five neces-
sary to insure its success.
Again, encouraging the feauture
of competitive drills by offering
prizes it will increase the number
of companies who will attend and
the amount of dollars left in the
tills of our business houses.
There is another benefit Green
Vile will derive from the encamp-
ment, that is, the drawing of visl-
tors to our city. Many of who will
see the great opportunity offered
them on every hand for paying in
vestment and will return later and
accept them.
Every city needs advertisement
to advance, as we'll as its business
and if Memphis can afford to ex-
pend for one day the large amount
it does to secure Admiral Dewey,
it looks reasonable to suppose
that our city can afford to invest
5000 for 10 days to secure tho
State Encampment with almost q
gilt edge guarantee of $40, 1000.
that will be spent by the soldiers
during their stay to say nothing
of the pleasures the visitors will
afford our citizens or the amount
of money the visitors will leave
with our merchants.
