Democrats Are Hopeful Of Sending
Two Delegates to Convention.

Fairfax, Okla, oct. 1S.-One of the
best and most enthusiastic meetings
ever held in the reservation was held
here last night. Hon. r. j. Leahy AMI
hon j. j. Quarles. the Democratic
candidates for the constitutional CON
vention, and Hon. c. r. Tinker, of
Pawhuska, entertained the crowd for
more than two hours. This is Mr.
Quarles' home and the people, regard
less of politics, are rallying to his sup
port almost to a man, such faith have
they in his honesty and integrity The
outlook now is that the Democratic
candidates viii make a runaway race
of this campaign.
Bird Mcclure is making tour OF
the reservation this week and small
crowds greet him everywhere His
duplicity with the people of the
Usage nation has been so pronounced
that his presence here is an actual
help to the Democratic party.
The Democrats now claim the reser.

Three South Carolina Postmasters
Will Keep Their Jobs.

Washington, D. c., Nov. 19.-As
the result of a recent visit to Wash
ington by J. F. Richardson, of Green
Vile, George D. Shore, Of Sumter, and
John r. Cochran, Jr., Of Anderson, it
is altogether probable that those gen.
tlemen, who are postmasters at their
respective homes, will shortly be ap-
pointed for another term.
Some days ago when the three
South Carolina postmasters came
to Washington, they called upon John
G. Capers, political referee, and with
him they took up With the postmaster
general the question of their reap
pointments. It is understood that the
conference was entirely satisfactory in
every way and that there will be no
change in the postofices at either
Greenville, Sumter or Anderson at
this time.
It is also understood there that
there is not the least dissatisfaction
at any of the places named with the
present postmasters and that the pat
rons of the respective Offices are well
pleased with the conduct of the postal
Offices.
Although the postmaster general
was very busily engaged when the
South Carolinians arrived at his Of
fee to take up the subject of their re-
appointment, he gave them and Mr..
Capers a respectful hearing and in
formed Mr.. Capers that his recon-
mendations in the matter would be
carried out. Mr.. Capers said today
that their appointments would short
ly be made for another term.-Colum-

LEE COUNTY NEWS.

Bishopville, Nov. 20.-Under a call
by the mayor, the citizens of the
town and surrounding country met in
the Court House yesterday evening
for the purpose Of considering the
vast difference in the price Of cotton
here and at Camden and Hartsville.
Such differences on some grades
amounting to 125 points.
After a free discussion for about
an hour, the following resolutions
were adopted:
Whereas the price of cotton at this
point is far below neighboring mar
kets, and we can discern no cause for
such difference, and
Whereas our prosperity depends en-
tirely on keeping our cotton market
abreast of surrounding towns.
Therefore, be it resolved, that we
take this matter in hand by sending
at once to Savannah and Norfolk,
representatives who shall undertake
to form a connection with said points
with a view of handling the cotton Of
this market.
2. That the town council be re-
quested to pay the expenses of said
representatives.
8. That a petition be circulated
for signatures addressed to the man
agement Of the Seaboard Air Line
Railway, asking them to build tap
