Is being, arranged for the annual
meeting of the Iowa Improved Stock

Denver the same week that unless
the dale is changed the meeting will
be a poor one. 1t is therefore prob
able that the date for the Iowa meet
ing Will be changed.

To my fellow-citizens of the second
congressional district: I have read with
pride and gratitude, most profound, the
numerously signed petitions asking meto
become candidate for congress to I'LL
the vacancy caused by the death Of my
revered father, Hon. George w. Croft.
from the second congressional district OF
South Carolina. No stronger token Of
honor, esteem and reverence for the
memory of your departed representative
can be given. While reluctant to do So
yet having faith in those who signed the
petitions and the citizens of the district
at large, majority of whom were his
friends. I have decided to make the race
and hereby announce myself q candidate
for congress from the second congress
ional district, to fill the unexpired term
only, subject to the result of the primary
election. And hereby pledge myself TO;
abide by and support the nominee In such
election and to support the platform and
principles of the Democratic party. 81

PROCLAMATION.
STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA.
EXECUTIVE CHAMBER.

Whereas information has been received
at this department that on the 25th day
of January, A. D. 1904, 'the cotton-house,
five tons of cotton seed, peas and other
articles" belonging to Mr.. ". r. Bishop,
near Bamberg, in the county of Bamberg,
were burned, and there being reason to
believe thlt the burning was an act OF IN
cendiarism,
Now, therefore, I, D. G. Hayward,
Governor of the State of South Carolina,
in order that justice may be done and the
majesty of the law vindicated, do hereby
offer reward of ONE HUNDRED DOL
lars for the apprehension and conviction
of the person or persons who committed
said act of incendiarism.
In testimony whereof, I have hereunto
set my hand and caused the
Great Seal of the State to be
affixed, at Columbia, this eight
eenth day of March, A. D. 1904,
SEAL and in the 12Sth year of the
Independence of the United
States of America.

SOIL Wet and DRY,

30u W 000
Wet soil assumes a darker color than
dry because tts particles thus become
semitransparent az b the case also
with a piece Of wetted tissue paper
or ground glass.
This change Of color h due to the tact
that the interstices between the grains
Of soil are filed with water, 80 that
the number Of rejecting surfaces,
which In a dry condition scatter and
break up the light are greatly reduced
in number. It follows that the total
amount Of light reflected to the eye Is
correspondingly diminished
In short as the color shade Of an
object depends upon the proportion Of
light that Is reflected for all the light
that falls upon it. dry soil Is lighter in
shade than wet, which reflects less
light. That portion Of incident light
which wet soil fails to reflect peae-
trates below the surface, where It Is
lost or absorbed.

ous. It p capable Of being transported

desire to correct the impression in the
minds of some that the Fitting School
boys are responsible for the bonfire on
the campus Friday night, and, conse.
quently, responsible for the false alarm
of fire. I saw the parties, but did not
recognize them, as they came upon the
campus, put the street lamp out, placed
the boxes, light the blaze and fired the
pistols. I know that every student in the
hall was abed at the time.

To the Democratic Voters of the Sec

To the Democratic Voters of the Sec
ond Congressional District: IN
An all-wise Providence has deprived
you Of your direct representation in the
lower house of congress, through the.
death of Hon. Geo. w. Croft, congress
man from the second South Carolina
district. This sad loss of an able public,
servant creates vacancy in a position
for which it has been my announced in-.
tention to be candidate in the regular
primary this summer, and so makes 1t.
necessary for me to seek your sufrages
earlier than would otherwise have been
the case, for the unexpired term. / am a
candidate for the high honor OF repre-
senting the second South Carolina dis
trict in congress, and ask your support
I am a Democrat, and give full AI1e-
glance to Democratic principles. Above
all, am a white supremacy Democrat,
and believe absolutely in the rule Of this
country by the white men, rule 80
shaped as to bring the greatest good to-
tho greatest number. ! 60 to the very
fullest length in opposition to anything
that saYors of race political or social
equ .lity. These are beliefs which I hold
should be advocated at Washington as
well as entertained at home.
I am eternally against trusts and the.
monopolies they build and foster, and
pledge my most earnest efforts, II elected,
to work TO- relief Of the people there
from.
South Carolina is now well represented
in the national house of representatives
by professional men. I would not appeal
to class prejudice, but I do ask, ought
not the farmers of South Carolina, who
are majority of the States white voters,
to have at least one simon-pure farmer
representative in congress?
I have been honored by the people Of
Edgefeld county by election to represent
them in the in the State Legislature, and
by the people of South Carolina, through
their general assembly, to, share in the
management of the dispensary, and point
to my record as public servant as an
assurance to the Democrats Of the second
district that if they choose me as their
congressman, I will serve them faithfully
and to the full extent of my ability. x
I hope to have the opportunity OF meet
ing the Democratic voters of our district
face to face, to fully state from the stump
my position on all public questions, which.
cannot be done in the limits Of newspa-
