People Need Rest From Politics.
Would Result In Campaign OF
Personalities.

Columbia, S. c., June 1.-Governor
McSweeney has rejected the resigna-
lions of Senators Tillman and Nc
Laaurin, to give them time to consider
their action.
He wrote communication to the
senators, in which he first said that
he returned their designations for
further consideration" AS their ac-
ton was taken in the heat of debate
and without full consideration of the
effects upon the people. In the clos
ing paragraphs of his letter, however,
the governor unoquiyocally declines
to accept the designations. He said in
part that a canvass between them
would result in bitterness, stir up the
people in an off year, when they need
ed rest from politics, and at period
when they were trying to get together
for the material progress Of the state,
and it would be a campaign of per-
sonalities, instead of education.

ATTACKED SECRET ORDERS.
Strong Arrangement In Report to
Reformed Presbyterian
SYNOD

Pittsburg, June LIN the Reformed
Presbyterian synod Friday morning
there was a bitter arraignment of
secret societies by the Rev. John
Wife, of Colorado, who was chair
man of the committee on secret so
cieties. He also, in his report, went
into the matter of labor and trades
unions and showed a tendency to
consider them in the same class as
the secret orders. At the close of his
report he advocated the appointment
of committee for the special pur-
pose of making a more thorough ex-
animation into the aims, purposes
and principles of labor organizations.
The following resolution in behalf
of the Chinese was offered by Daniel
Chestnut:
Whereas, There exists an unjust
legal discrimination in the United
States against the Chinese, and, in
as much as the Rev. n : Johnston,
an honored father and constituent
member of this court, is deeply inter
ested in the home mission work
among Chinese on the Pacific coast
and throughout this land, and is now
engaged in a movement to rouse the
public sentiment of the Christian PEG,
pie and through them to influence
congress by petition or memorial to
make such changes@o or amendments
to the Chinese restriction act as will
afford to Chinese the same rights,
privileges and immunities as are ac.
corded to people of other nations"
After this preamble the resolution
provides for taking votes in the DIFF
ferent congregations and sending in
accounts of the number favoring the
repeal of the law to the president and
congress. together with immense pc.
titions for action
The devotional service Friday
morning was led by Prof. D. B. viii

Modified Plat Amendment.

The cabinet held that the amend
ments and interpretations and the
wealth of whereases placed by the
Cuban convention upon the Cuban
amendment amounted to a practical
modification of the Platt amendment
such as was beyond the power Of this
government to accept. The message
of rejection sent to General Wood by
Secretary Root advises the Cubans in
unqualified language that there is no
power resting in the United States
government to change the terms of
the Plat amendment, and that this
government insists on the acceptance
of the Plat amendment, without
amendment or qualification. The
Cuban convention is still in session.
and the message Of rejection will be
delivered to 1t Immediately. The adj
ministration is confident that the Gu
bans will understand the exact atti
tude of this government and make a
satisfactory acceptance within rea-
sonable period.
The three main points in which the
action of the Cuban constitutional
convention is regarded as unsatisfac-
tory relate, it is said, to coaling sta
lions, sanitation and intervention.
The Cuban convention took from the
coaling stations paragraph of the
Plat amendment it's obligatory char
acter and merely authorized the Gu
ban government, in IT'S judgment, to
allow the United States to possess
coaling or naval stations. The United
States will insist on an absolute
agreement 70 grant us these coaling
