lieve it is only right and proper that
the state should make an appropria-
ton for this purpose. In accordance,
therefore, with their wishes, and also
because I strongly favor the idea, T
have the honor to suggest that an ap-
preparation Of 1000 be made, in Of
der that there may be no uncertainty
rs to the convenience, comfort and
full enjoyment Of the annual reunions
and communion of our old Veterans.
The Jamestown Exposition.
At the last meeting of your honor
able body, $4,000 was appropriated
to provide for an exhibit Of the agri-
cultural and industrial resources of
this state at the jamestown Exposi-
ton. Under the terms of the Act,
appointed commissioners to take
charge Of this work, and while no
formal report has been made, l have
been advised Of the status of the
work by Mr.. w. T.. Gonzales, Chief
Commissioner.
The Act leaves it to the discretion
of the Commission as to the erection
OF state building, and I am advised
that the $4,000 appropriated pre-
cludes the exercises of that discretion.
The Commission secured a splendid
site, but the erection of the building
is impossible with the limited appro-
priation, which is very much smaller
than the amount voted by any other
state. II this were attempted, the.
exhibit Of the States resources would
be seriously intcricrcd with.t The Act
in question provides also that the
Commission shall bring the exhibit
back to South Carolina. Definite in
formation as to the disposition to be
made Of this exhibit, when returned,
is much needed here.
1t seems to me that our capital city
is the proper place for this perman-
emf display Of our material resources,
and | trust that this action will be
taken by your body in the further
consideration Of this question. I am
informed that suitable state build
ing will cost $4,000, and l sincerely
trust that this amount will be appro-
priated for this purpose; especially
so, as the building will be SO construct
ed that it can be removed an drcbuilt
where the permanent exhibit of the
states resources will be placed.
| sometimes think that cxpositions
are held too often, but in this case I
feel that not only is it an opportunity,
but that it is our privilege, to occupy
a place of honor at this Exposition.
In addition to this, the close re-
lation existing between Virginia ana
South Carolina, and the opportunc
time for exhibiting our splendid col
lective resources, combine to make
this an occasion We should meet in
accordance with its demands, its re-
sponsibilities and its opportunity.
Salaries of State Officers.
With the continued growth Of our
state, it will be absolutely necessary
that larger appropriations should be
made for the conduct of its public af-
fairs, and especially is this true in
reference to the salaries paid to our
state officers. Without exception,
these salaries are totally inadequate G
for the services rendered. and are in
II" sense in Keeping with tie RESPONSE
biliticS dcvolving upon the ncum-
bents. In no department of our GOV
ernmcnt are salaries paid at all COM
mcnsurate' either with the services

Homer Setter Is Saved From
Drowning.
SLEEVE OF OVERCOAT
Catches on a Nail Preventing
a Tragedy.
Tank Into Which Young Man Fell
was Eighteen Feet Deep-Was
Working at the Plant.

Homer Seiter,the twenty-year-old
son of Dr.. j. Ii. Setter. city coun-
Gilman, narrowly escaped meeting
death in IL most horrible way at
the sewage disposal plant, late
Wednesday night. While walking
through enc of the septic tanks,
through which the city sewage pass
es in its process of publication,
yong Setter lost his baance and
fell from the narrow footpath.
The tank at the point where Setter
fell is filled with water and miro
to depth Of eighteen feet, and
but for the fact that one Of the
sleeves Of q heavy overcoat which
he vas wearing caught on II pro-
jectlng nail, nothing conld have
saved him from sinking TO the
bottom OF the tank.
According TO the story which
young Setter told superintendent
Burnett, he was partially submerged
in the tank for almost an hour
before he succeeded in getting
back on the footpath. The expert
ence was one attended by the most
unimaginable horrors. A lantern

1t is rather difficult for Senator
Foraker to determine just where
he stands after the first round in
his mill with Secretary Taft. At
Canton, last evening, his every men
ton of President Roosevelt, who is
back of Taft's candidacy, cheers
broke forth from those in attend
ance at the banquet and it was
difficult for him to decide upon
the meaning. Once or twice the
Foraker adherents cheered Justify.
but it appears as though the
presidents followers had the best
OF the argument.
1t was clearly demonstrated that
Foraker doe: nto intend to give up
without a fight. Those who have
thought the fight would not last
long must modify their views. For
aker is not the kind Of a man to
lie down so long as there is even a
chance of winning. He is the kind
OF a man who never knows when
he is whipped. The fight which will
center III Ohio, will be one which
VIII ousshine the old Foraker-Han-
ma fight and there may be some
airing of dirty linen before it is
over.

1t is not surprising that the
suggestion that Foraker indorses
the candidacy of Secretary Taft,
should come from his old friends in
Columbus, when at is remembered
how he threw them down at the
conference which was held there
when there was some question as
to the propriety Of re-nominating
Governor Herrick. AT that tihnc
the "cld guard" was incompromis-
ingly in favor of turning down
Hei1ick and Foraker himself was
so inclined until he secured certain
promises form Herrick IS followers,
then he turned down his friends
flatly and left them looking like q
''pOor boy at husking. " Is it
then any wonder that the suggest
ion that Foraker step aside in favor
Of Taft. should come from Colum-
bus?

fell into the tank. and during all
of the time that he was in his
precarlous position. he was envelop-
ed by darkness so dense that he
could scarcely discern objects with

Young Setter was employed to
help Special Engineer Kimberly Of
the state board OF health in his
work of collecting sewage at the
local plant for the purpose of an
alysis. The young man was ON
duty last night ana every half hour
would visit the septic tanks to dip
samples of the flnh. 1t was while

and fell. AT the time he wore a

" ~ 1.c lyes. This popu-
Ylar fallacy is without any foundation
in fact, for frost has absolutely moth.
ing whatever to do with tinting the
leaves, except that it hastens their
fall.
Let those who do not believe this
statement go out in the swamps two
weeks or even month before frost,
and they will find occasional naples
as scarlet as they ever are seen In
September or October.
1t is curious fact that young trees
are the first to turn red Autumn
coloring is actually due to oxidization,
which is caused by the action of light
nd heat, somewhat similar to the
rust on iron. With leaves 1t is due
to the fact that in fulfilling their
mission they become choked by their
own exertions and the acids thus
HORNED are acted on by the oxygen.
In extremely moist atmosphere the
colors are not usually very bright, as
in England, for example. And in
very dry climates the leaves dry up
suddenly and their skin, which Is very
thick to prevent the escape Of moist
ire, is not sufficiently transparent to
allow the color being seen beneath.
IN thefregions where the autumn foli.
age is most Vivid an average season
produces the finest colors. Neither a
very dry nor very wet summer and
early autumn Will result in much
brilliancy.
The extraordinary range of colors
In trees OF a single species is notice
able, particularly SO with the sugar
naples, and it is remarkable that
an individual tree will continue the
same color year after year; not only
that but the same branch will show
the first tinge Of color year aftor
year.
