Mr.. KetchinS of Fairfield remarked
banteringly that as this invitation had
not come unsolicited, it had better not
be accepted.
The motion was put and Mr.. Bleas'es
substitute to hold the convention in
Columbia was carried by vote Of 81
to I. The seven were: Cunningham
Appelt, Traxler, Magill, Wharton,
Watson and Wilborn. AS there are
400 members OF the convention, they
would have had a lively time together
i'm Charleston, and Columbia could
spare the convention for once. There
seemed to be hidden reason for OBJ
jecting to the proposed change i'm the
place OF meeting, probably some ex-
pect matters affecting the organiza-
tion OF the party to come up, and
think it best for such matters to be
disposed of away from the enchanting
music OF the midway Spielers.
One of these matters OF party policy
is the attitude Of organized Democ-
racy toward the Socalled Commercial
Democrats" Mr.. Blease last night
introduced resolution to the effect
that the committee advise the conven-
tion to add new section to the oath
to oe taken by candidates i'm the State
primary, so that they would be bound
to support the platform Of the national
Democratic party. But he withdrew
the resolution at the suggestion of
Col. w. ID. Evans, who declared that
it would be somewhat like arrogance
for this committee, which now goes
out of existence, to make any such
suggestion to the convention. The

Crop Conditions.

The United States department Of
agriculture for the South Carolina
section in the crop service of the
weather bureau has IS sued its weekly
crop bulletin. In writing of South
Carolina conditions the reports says:
Preparations OF lands, and spring
planting are about as late as they
were last year, which is to say about
ten days later than the average sea-
son. Slow progress was made over
the western counties where the farm
work is backward and the season very
late. Here some corn lands have been
prepared and little corn has been
planted but planting has not become
general. Over the eastern and CEN
tral counties the upland corn planting
is well under way and some early
planted is up. Ground is too cold.
however, for favorable termination.
Usually cotton planting is well under
way over the southeastern counties
10y the first of April, but this year cot.
ton planting during March has beer
confined to southeastern portion prin-
| cipally 10 Beaufort county, where
about one fourth Of the contemplated
acreage has been planted, mostly OF
the Sea Island variety.
Lands have been largely prepared
and are awaiting suitable planting
weather over the eastern and central
counties, where by April 10th it is ex-
pccted, work will become general. In
western counties preparation OF cot
ton lands is backward and planting
will be late although during the latter
portion of March work of preparation
advanced rapidly but planting will be
delayed until ground becomes warm
enough for favorable termination OF
seed.

A LABOR PAPER WARNED.
Orders from Washington About its
Use Of the Mails

structionS from the postofiice depart
ment at Washington to exc. Ide the
Voice Of Labor" local weekly pub
lished in Augusta from the United
States mails if it continues to publish
in its columns inflImmatory articles.
as have appeared I'm several recent
issues.
The paper has not yet been shut out
from the mails, but the editor. Mr..
John Allen Mette, has been cautioned
by Postmaster Smythe that the pos
tai laws would be strictly adhered to-
and these laws cover the sending
through the mails Of such literature
as the Voice OF Labor"
Editor Mette went to Mr.. Smythe's
Office, and asked by what authority
did the department want to keep his
paper out Of the mails?" Mr.. Smythe
replied that he was only carrying out
the laws of the postal department.
and cited these laws to Mr.. Mette.
The latter then wanted to know who
were the parties who had notified the
department at Washington of the pa
per being in the mails The postmas-
ter told Mr.: Mette that he knew, but
did not consider it necessary to inform
Mr.. Mette. Mr.. Mette was anxious to
know, but was not informed.
The Voice Of Labor" published
several articles in late issues that were
rather warm stuff, to use a slang
phrase. The headlines glowcd with
strong statements such as: 'Consti-
tuition of United States Damnable
Document" Civil War" etc. The
last issue, that of last Saturday, con-
tanned an article, dcnouncing the
municipal government.

Omaha, Neb., Aug. 30.-Twelve years
ago David H. Lewis lived In Omaha and
carried on business Of advertising on
counter blotters. The World Herald quotes
Judge George A. Day, commissioner Of
the supreme court Of Nebraska as say
Ing that Lewis and David Lamar, the
New York broker, arerone and the same.
Lamar Is the central figure in the suit
IN New Jersey to restrain the conversion
OF the preferred stock Of the steel trust
into bonds. ~
Judge Day yesterday returned from New
York, and the World Herald printed this
interview: E.
II was surprised last week at receiving
a telegram from the steel trust people
asking If / could come to that city for a
conference. I went There I learned
was wanted to identify David H. Lewis,
with whom I had had some business ten
years ago in Omaha. ...-
In company with several Pinkerton
detectives, I went to Brighton Beach
races, and saw Lewis in the crowd i'm
mediately found the officers and pointed
Lewis out to them. They then told me,
much to my surprise. that the man was
David Lamar. member Of the Wall street
brokerage firm Of Content & Co., and

Il could not possibly be mistaken in the
man, for / had had dealings with him.
Then too. the steel trust people showed
me contract. signed by myself, which
had made with Lewis in Omaha, and
which they claimed to have secured from
the possessions of Lamar.
Robert Pinkerton then went with me,
and again picked out Lewis or Lamar
from a crowd of not less than 5000 peo-
pie. Mr.. Pinkerton also said Lewis and
Lamar We're the same.
What the steel trust people are after

AFTER INDIAN LAND
schemers Who Hope to Get It for a
Song.

Washington, Aug. 3o.-Commissioner
Jones has nipped the bud Of a scheme
that promised to develop 10000. 900 or
$20,000,000 steal Of Indian lands. Com
missioner Jones admits there Is chance
yet for the schemers.
Numerous large syndicates have been
organized throughout the west to pur-
chase the lands owned by deceased In
dians which are now in the hands Of the
government, that cannot be disposed of
without the approval Of the officials OF
the interior department. Thousands and
thousands of acres Of these lands are
valued at from $40 to $50 per acre and
these willy individuals know there is a
fortune for them If these lands can be
purchased at a low price.
A big firm in Nebraska in which mum
ber Of prominent and public men are in
terested. made an attempt to secure from
the agent at the reservation near Omaha
the description of about 10000 acres OF
lands and the names of the heirs of the
deceased allottees. He refused to fur
nish the description.
In Minnesota and the Dakotas only q
small portion of these lands have been
allotted and the work of the land grabbers
has just commenced. '' o.. -
