WYATT AIKEN.

WYATT AIKEN.
Wyatt Aiken is forty-two years OF
age. He is q son of the late u.
Wyatt Aiken, who represented this
district in congress for decade and
was one of the most honored men IN
South Carolina.
Wyatt Aiken, the younger, is
lawyer, but has not practiced extern
sively. He is better known as the
court stenographer of the Eighth
judicial circuit. In this capacity ne
has made valuable friends, for the
Eighth circuit corresponds in large
measure to the Third congressional
district.
Mr.. Aiken has another reason for
his popularity. He enlisted as a
private in the Abbeville Volunteers
when this country delared war
against Spain. He Was made secre-
tary to Col. Alston snd subsequently
| was commissioned adiutant of the
| Third battalion with rank of first
lieutenant.
The quartermaster, Capt. Jsrne-
gan, being on sick furlough, Lieut..
Aiken was detailed in charge OF this
! department for the greater part of
the time the regiment was out. AS
there we're three companies and sew
eral parts of companies from his
district, these young men contrib
uted great working force for Mr..
Aiken, whose character was unasssll!
able.
Mr.. Aiken never sought Office and
never made speech before the con-
gressional compaign opened at Don
maids. He defeated senator and
an ex senator from his own county,
two distinguished legislators from
Anderson county, we'll known citl-
zen of Pickens county (who was in
| the second race) and the foremost
| man of Oconee IN public life. Mr..
| Aiken is a man of splendid physique
| and charming personality. His capa-
| bilities as legislator or an advocate
| are rs yet untried.

THE State, 13. !

The board of trustees Of the
South Carolina college met yester
day afternoon in the library for the
purpose OF electing president to
succeed Dr.. F. C.. Woodward. Much
discussion was indnlged in, but after
careful consideration the board unan-
imously sgresd to tender the position
to MIR. Charles A: Woods, prom
met member of the Marion bar and
q man who is deeply interested in
higher education. A special COM
mittee consisting of Gov. McSweeney,
Col. John r. Sloan and Superinten
dent of Education John j. McMahan
was appointed to visit Marion AID
extend the invitation to Mr.. Woods.
Although a great many applica
tions had been received by the board
and and Mr.. Woods was not an ap-
plicsnt, even by way OF utterance,
the selection was made only after
much meditation and because Mr..
Woods was considered the most de-
sirable man for the position. The
only fear of the board was that be
might refuse the presidency snd it is
with this point in view that the in-
vitat,on committee will be sent to
Marion.
Mr.. Woods was born iu Darling
ton July 81, 1892, and is the son of
Samuel A. Woods and Martha T.
Woods (nee DnBose. He is from
Scotch, Irish and Ruguenot ances
try. He married Sallie T. Wanna,
maker on December Is, 1884. He
was graduated from Wofford college
in 1876 and has practicfd law i'll
Marion since 1873 with marked sue
cess. Mr.. Woods is now president
OF the State Bar association and has
always been interested in the cause
of higher education. He is now a
trustee of both Winthrop and Wof-
ford colleges. For many years he
was president of banking institu-
tion.
The board heartily expressed its
thanks to Prof. BENZ. Sloan, who has
been president pro tenn. The board
recorded it's utmost confidence in
Maj. Sloan and regretted that it was
his earnest desire to return to the
chair of mathematics early as the
presidential vacancy could be filed,
It is we'll known that it was only
after much persuasion both by the
board and his colleagues that Maj.
Sloan consented to act as president.
and then only with the understanding
that the board take steps to elect an
executive officer as soon as possible.

WOULD CAUSE TROUBLE.

Col. Crews called the committees
attention to one of the rules requir
ing voters to put ballots in their
proper boxes. He thought it wrong
to throw out ballots placed in the
State box. z SIS Is
Mr.. Williams showed that if such
votes were not thrown out voter
could easily vote twice-ssy two
tickets for county officers or vice versa.
Col. Crews knew that the counting
of such tickets had been done and
hethought it right. He wanted the
matter settled and made uniform.
He finally moved that county ticket
it found in State box be counted
and vice versa.
MIR. Blease moved to amend the
motion so that none be counted when
there was an excess OF votes over the
poll list. ..,.
Gov. McSweeney said he hoped
that the committee would throw more
safeguards about the primary system.
If a man made the error in the box
it was his own unfortunate mistake.
The primary should be most care
fully guarded. Managers of elec-
tions could tell the voter which box
was which. He wanted every white
man to vote and Lot lose his vote,
but to go to this extent would let in
too much laxity.
Col. Crews motion was fnally
voted down,
Gov. McSweeney then read the
reportofthe committee on tabulation,
showing the result given above, 'he
report being adopted.

:
Washington, Jan. "a The Diet ais Of.

archists was prac tically determined

TO GET DANISH INDIES.
Treaty Signed with Denmark fol
CessiOn Of Islands to. the
United States.

Washington, Jan. 25.-The treaty of
cession of the Danish West Indian Is
lands from Denmark to the United
States was signed at the state depart
ment Friday by Secretary Hay and
Constantine Brun, the Danish minis
ter. The treaty will be submitted to
the senate for ratification immedi-
ately. :aE,
Following the invariable rule in
such cases, the state departm Off
Gals decline to make public any of the
details OF the treaty, SO that it is mot
possible to state positively the price
to be paid, though this is believed to be
in the neighborhood of S., 100000. It is
known also that Denmark has aban-
doned the position she was inclined to
occupy toward the conservation of the
political rights of the inha bitants of
the island, and leaves the United States
free hand to deal with them, without
pledge of American citizenship or of
free trade privileges. So 1T is assumed
that the status of the Danish West In
dian islands, politically and CONNER
cially, should the treaty be ratified,
will be similar to that of Porto Rico.
Having gained these points in the ne
gotiations, the state department Off
Gals believe that the treaty is certain
to receive the approval of the United
States senate.
