Politics and Soldiers Reunions.

At the meeting in Louisville last week of
the United Confederate Veterans there were
two Incidents which forcibly testified to the
admirable spirit that prevailed. Gen. Ste
phen ID. Lee the commander-in-chief of
the organization. was in the chair, when
a delegate from Texas sought recognition
for resolution bearing on the old con-
troversy about the ironing of Jefferson
Davis at Fortress Monroe. The recent
sharp exchange of views between Mrs.
Davis and General Miles gave point to the
matter. and the text was one of danger for
the meeting. General Lee promptly met
the emergency and refused to receive the
resolution. saying: I'VE cannot enter into
any controversy, and we must have no pol
itics.' The meeting sustained the decision
and the delegate sat down.
At the same session the following CORE
pleasure of everybody:
MADISON, Ind. June IA, 1905 - To
United Confederate Veterans Louisville
Ky: Greetings and good will from the De-
partment of Indiana. G.. A. r. One coun-
try in fraternity. under one flag.
LOUISVILLE. KY. June 10. 19O5.-Dan-
lei X. Lucas Department Commander G. A
r.. Madison. Ind: The United Confederate
Veterans conventions accept in the great
est cordially the kindly greetings you send
ana direct me by the most enthusiastic
vote to express their appreciation. We
too. feel that this Is one country with one
flag which we and our sons are ready to
defend with our lives.
STEPHEN d. LEE,
General Commanding"
No politics. is the watchword for the old
soldiers Of both Sides so far as their re-
unions are concerned. The war with them
has long been over. and the bravest and
the best of them have since devoted their
energies to the building up of the country.
As they differed about the great questions
which brought on the war they have differ
ed since about the great questions which
lave grown out of the war. Ex-confeder-
ates have followed the fortunes of the re-
publican party and held high Office as re-
publicans, while ex-federals have been
prominent among the democratic leaders,
and one of them General Hancock, was
that party's candidate for President in 1880
II so happens. too, that General Miles is
a democrat, and at present conspicuous in
the speculation about the governorship OF
Massachusetts. He may be his party's can
didate this year. and in that event will
ceive the support of men who. although
they have OF late years opposed the party
supported that party with enthusiasm while
the war was in progress.
General Lee, who was an excellent soldier
and has since been as excellent citizen,
took ground at Louisville which any Amer
lean. north or south, might be proud to &C.
cCpy.

In the smaller sphere to which fate con-
fined him. Maxine Gomez showed the
great qualities that place his name fifty
with those of Washington and Bolivar. II
was not only in the field that he won the
title of liberator of Cuba, but especially in
the troubled times following the interven-
ton Of the United States. when his disin-
terestedness and craftsmanship helped to
bring about a settlement. From the first
he gave full faith to the declarations of the
United States and trusted to American
honor. In spite of opposition he settled as
we'll as he could the dangerous problem OF
paying and disbanding the revolutionary
army. He succeeded in the tangle of po-
litical intrigue In pursuing the right course.

The Silly Season.

Once again the silly season
Greets us with caloric glee,
And Indifferent to reason,
Things are as they used to be.
Here's the over-large excursion.
Here's the man who rocks the boat.
Here's the swimmer whose diversion
Is far out at sea to float.
Once again. with nerves a-tremble
We will dodge the reckless gun
Where the patriots assemble
On July the 4th for fun.
Spite of knowledge purchased dearly,
Spite of all our ancient lore.
Silly seasons flourish yearly
Quite as potent as Of yore.

THREE WATERY DEATHS
An Automobile Conveyed the Victims
 Into the Chicago River.

Chicago,June 1O.-Three people were drowned and two others narrowly es- caped a like fate tonight when an au- tOmObile in which the five were riding plunged into the open draw Of the Rush street bridge crossing the Chicago riv- CT. Those drowned were: Jerome C. hurtzman of Chicago, manager of the LiquoZone company; Mrs. Jerome Kurtzman, and W. A. Hartley, manager of a local automobile establishment.
 The rescued were: w. H. Hoops. Jr, local manager for an automobiie company; Mrs. Jeremiah Run--on Of New York city. Both Mrs. Runyon and MT. Hoops were unconscious for half an hour after being taken from the water, but are expected to recover
 The accident occurred at the north end of the bridge, where there is an upward slope of 200 feet before the end of the bridge or the edge of the draw is reached.
 Neither KUrtzman, his wife, nor Hartley rose to the surface, and it is believed that the current Of the river, which runs at five miles an hour past the bridge, carried them farther down the stream.

THE ALUMNI BANQUET
A Brilliant Affair at the Tempe Nor
 nal Friday Evening.

A fitting continuation to the com mencement week exercises at the normal was the banquet and re- ception rendered the graduating class of 1905, the members of the normal faculty and the board of the school by the Normal Alumni association. It was time when form CT graduates and their friends for each member of the association had the pri- vilege of inviting one, met together and renewed old acquaintances, made new ones and enjoyed themselves to the fullest extent possible. Probably nev- CT before in the history of the assoCi- ation was there such a brilliant aff lir for there were present beside the members and friends, board and facul- ty the governor of the territory and wife The attendance was unusually large there being present eigltt-uve graduates of the institution not ilclud- ing the newly graduated class of twen- ty-One.
 The decorations for the occasion were unsurpassed. At the suggestion of Elmer Ruse, chairman of the deco ration committee, the front of the Girls Hall had been artistically light ed with electric lights, a number of them being arranged to form the let ters A. N. \. A. (ArizOna Normal Alumni Association) and when all were lighted, the front porch was a blaze of light On the inside the Ge- corations we've no less prominent, pep per boughs, bunting and palms having been used with telling effect

| Governor Hayward is good mar
and has made an excellent chief mag
istrate, but it borders on the ridiculous
to set up the claim that it is necessary
to the well being Of the State to give
him third term. We have too good
an opinion Of D. G.. Hayward to mag
ino for an instant that he would con-
sent to be candidate for third
term, and we are too good a friend of
his to urge him to do what would be
not only improper but unnecessary.
The State Of South Carolina is not
yet so poor that it possesses only one
man suitable for governor and must

Newberry ofice-seekers, there is good
material to select from. Richard I.
Manning is our first choice, Of course,
but there are others who could and
would fill the Office acceptably.
A member Of the legislature
made an excellent suggestion today,
viz: that the city council set aside an
nually not less than $4,000 of the dis
pensary profits received by the city
for the purpose of accumulating
fund sufficient to establish an electric
light plant in connection with the wa
terworks when the present contract
with the Electric Light Company ex-
pires. 1t is suggestion worthy of
consideration, for all disinterested ci-
tizens are agreed that the city must
eventually own its own lighting plant.
The amounts now paid to the Sumter
Water Company for hydrant rent and
the Sumter Electric Light Company
Ior street light rent, a.ggregating more
than $4,000 per annum, will pay the
operating expenses of combined
and electric light system
and leave the receipts from private
parties to pay interest on the invest
ment and create a sinking fund for
the retirement of the waterworks
bonds at maturity.

Instead of forcing Governor Hey
ward to serve third term it will be
good plan to have a general clear
ance of state house officers at the next
election. 1t is time to discontinue the
system of rotation from one Office
to another or from a clerkship to
state Office. In recent years there has
grown up somewhat Of a state house

business entirely. Governor Hey

The farmers Of this country are

rate the streets for some days bear
ing a striking resemblance to the cot

laden wagons drawn up in front of

and the spectators and others who
want cotton are getting it at their own
price. The outlook is gloomy for the

season is propitious and a big crop of
cotton is produced this year we look
to see cotton selling for cents in
