A great many merchants in South
Carolina are very much interested in
the slot machine bill which has pas

Clenco Bays, a negro, hunted down
by a mob, was burned at the stake
Friday near Crossett Ark. He was
charged with the murder of j. D.

who was a wealthy planter, had fe"
words with Bays Friday, the negro
later securing shotgun and killing
Stephens at close range. The negro
then beat the body with the butt Of

State, regardless of the president
record as a civil service reformer, an
of the fact that he owes his office t
Senator Hanna, by whom he wa
made national committeeman and TO
whom he would jump the fence at tn
first chance of success. Do not b
troubled by the pretenses and falls

smooth article, but his course is al
most run. When the administration

tion.
I had little personal acquaintance
with Mr.. Capers upon his introduc.
tion to Republican politics. Since
leaving the State do not remember
seeing him here except during the
Democratic primary, when he was
the political manager for Gen. NJ. c.
Butler for United States senator.
My first insight into the ingrained
duplicity of Mr.. Capers was at the
congressional district convention held
at Orangeburg last summer, when, to
my astonishment he proclaimed him
self in a set speech as the champion Of
the negro, and boasted how, at the
conference with the sub-eXecutive
committee he voted on every ballot
for DR.. Crum for collector of customs,
and taunted Chairman Deas with
having deserted his race and prevent
ed DR.. Crum's selection-for not 10
days before I heard him declare thai
under no circumstances would he sup
port negro for that Office.
1 cannot believe that after the
brave fight Chairman Deas has made
against National Committeeman
Capers that he will yield to his i'm
portunities and subject himself TO the
suspicious and contempt it would
inevitably cause, for no one knows so
well his selfish, corrupt end sinister
purposes and how blighting or even
destructive to the best interests Of
the Republican party will be his con-
tinued ascendency.
If only the men that Mr.. Capers
has played with deceived and betray-
ed will assert their self respect and
resent, it will fully Offset in influence
and numbers the Office holders who
wears his collar and who must work
for him however they distrust him,
and they can 50 rally the rank and file
of the party that neither money, prom
ise of Office nor threat, or all COM
bined, can save him.

IT WAS VETOED.
The Jurisdiction Act Returned With
out Gov. Heyward's Approval.

Gov. Hayward has vetoed the act
relating to exclusive jurisdiction
of the federal government over Ger,
tain property it has acquired ano
might hereafter acquire in this State.
The bill was hard fought in both
houses, on the ground that it would
be delegating to the United States
too much authority over property In
this State at the sacrifice Of the rights
of the State. 1t was argued in reply
that unless this exclusive Jurisdiction
could be acquired the secretary Of the
treasury would decline to continue
work on the federal buildings at Spar
tanburg, Rock Hill, Georgetown and
Florence.
After several consultations with the
senators from the respective counties,
Gov. Hayward put his veto on the
measure and Friday sent a message tc
the senate, in which body the bill
originated. The message says:
Il herewith return without my ap'
proval an act entitled an act ceding
to the United States exclusive juris-
diction over certain lands acquired fol
public purposes within the State, and
authorizing the acquisition thereof.
My reasons for not approving it are a.
follows:
''Section s, clause II, art. ! Of The
constitution OF the United States con-
templates that the consent Of the leg
islature be freely given to the acQui
sition by purchase of a particulal
place or particular places within The
State for one Of the purposes enume
rated in the constitution.
1.-The act goes beyond the intention
of the constitution in consenting tt
the acquisition not only by purchase
but also by condemnation or other
wise-not Of particular place or par
ticular places but Of any place, with
in the State without limitation O.
reference to it's situation, locality ane
present use, or to the size or quallt.
of the lands to be acquired, or to th'
purpose for which it may be acquired
by the United States government.
In order to protect the State ant
it's citizens, the legislature, in ever.
cession of land and remuneration Of it
sovereignty over the same, should frs
consider the situation, location AM
present use of the particular place t.
be ceded, the amount Of land EN-
braced in the cession, and the purpose
for which it is to be ceded in order II
determine whether such ceSSion is t
the public interest"

fractured that he died short time
after reaching the hospital.
