1t is announced that a national COM
mittee representing the union will
appear before congress at the pres
ent session and urge the passage Of
the bill.
At IL o'clock last night the con-
vention adjourned to meet again in
Columbia on Juanary %. AIT this
meeting ii is proposed to complete
the state constitution and other mat
ters of more or less vital interest to
the members Of the organization
Throughout the state will be taken up.
Although President Goodwin of the
South Carolina division was present,
ME did not preside at any Of the
sessions.
"The meeting was entirely har-
monious,' said Il member of the con-
vention last night. "All differences
have been settled and the union is 90
ing to work earnestly and with more
vim and vigor than ever for the prin-
cipleS which it stands for.'
When asked if there would be any
change in officers ut the january
meeting, one of the delegates replied
that f2 could not say anything on
that line.
1t was learned that the "Farmers
Union Burcau.' which has been con-
ductei by Mr.. J. {. Stribling of
'PeadIeton, will no longer be con-
ductcd. 1t is not known whether
Mr.. Strbling's recent critimisms of
The officials who called this conven-
4ion had anything to do with this ac-
tion. Last week Mr.. StribliAg had
, the following "hot sho.' in his "bu-
reau' column, wlncn appeared in
paners throughout the state:
"About the only plausible an 1
reasonabl excuse for calling this spe-
cial meeting, only five months after
we met in July, may be in giving the
new members who have come in
since July the opportunity of parti-
cipating in casting the votes that
choose the managers for the next
seven months. But some may say
that the act Of joining the union un-
der the leadership of In" present Of
fc2rS was equivalent to an endorse
| mcnt Of the present officials Of the
nnion. AT best this December meet
in" can not be called anything else
! but Il kind of revolution or revolt at
out own actions. Our constitution
that was adopted to guide the action
of the union has not guided the action
Of some of our officials but little
more than the curl in a pigs tail
| controls or guides the movements of
the pigs nosc.''

MIR. Tillman attempted to secure the
adoption Of the resolution he aroused
1t long discussion.
/ Mr.. Allrich suggested that the
measure should go to the committee
on judiciary. Mr.. Tillmany consented
20 the change, but insisted that any
committee taking charge Of it should
first be instructed to take The uues-
'tion up.
"Does The senator from South Car
olina,' asked Mr.. Kean, "want to
instruct states what laws they should
IpasS to protect themselves from th,
liquor traffic2'
Mr.. Tiliman explained that his re-
solution simply sought to define the
point where the police power of the
state begins. He said that as gov
ernnr of South Carolina he had dealt
with this question. He wanted some
~ommittec to determine now far con-
%ress can 90 in limiting as ii police
power the control over Interstate
traffic III Intoxicating beverages.
Senator Clark. Of Wyoming. chair
man Of committee OH The judiciary,
preferred having the resolution laid
over until it could be worded in a
way to allow the committee to report
on it intelligently.
After further discussion in which
Senators Bacon, McCumber. Knox
! and Tillman participated, Mr. Knox
suggested that tne whole difficulty
could be reached through a bill.
"Draw one,' suggested Mr.. Till
man, w1lereupon Mr.. Knox prepared
AN amendment to the Wilson bill
providing that the control Of the
state should begin as soon as the
package is "within the borders of a
state and before or after delivery
to the consi "nee.'
MIR. Tillman then Withdrew his re-
solution and offered The bill. which
was referred to the committee on
judiciary.
The bill as presented reads:
"That all fcrm"ntcd. distilled ol

ing given the North Augusta dis
pensary:
"The city Of Augusta has gone af-
ter the South Carolina dispensary
good and strong. BY resolution
adopted in council meeting last night,
presented by Mr.. Botnwell and see
onded by Mr.. Blackshear, if the
North Augusta dispensary is contin-
ued in operation the strongest forces
known to the members Of council will
be used to curtail the trade when it
has been alleged the dispensary is
seeking after the lst of January
that Of the city Of Augusta.
"The feature of The fight to be
made is the fact that if their pur-
pose is successful Augusta will re-
vive custom which has long since
died out; that Of charging a toll for
the use Of highway.
"The subject Of Mr.. Boutwell, 5
resolution offered verbally by unani-
nous consent, was that :hc city at
torney be instructed to examine into
The contract between The city Of Au-
Yllsta and the North Augusta Land
and Investment company, by which
the North Augusta bridge WAS pres
cnted to the city, and ascertain Just
what The rights of Augusta are in
the premises; if the city has the
right TO charge toll for The use Of
the bridge, and under what condi-
tionS the toll may be charged.
"Mr. Boutwell, stated that The OBJ
ject of the resolution was to guard
Augusta against the iniuuity Of the
North Augusta dispensary after the
state prohibition law goes into ef-
feet. He said unless something of
the kind is done North Augusta dis
pcnSary bottles will be littcring the
streets Of Augusta, and the insti:u,
tion will cause this city more troubl,
than anything in the whole commune
! ity.
"rhe opinion was entertained that
a toll can not be charged on tht
North Augusta bridge unless il is al
SO charged on the Centre street
! bridge, but certain Of Tie member.
of council believe the only excmp
tion on HE North Augusta bridge is
! the free traffic Of street ears being
! intcrfcrcd with.
"lt is Mayor Dunbar's idea tc
charge foil Of = or 2 l-2 cents eacl
way for each person using the Nortl
Augusta bridge; allowing all vehicle:
! free use Of the bridge. This woul,
mean that passengers on ihc stree
ears could 90 over free, by paying
tAe street car company 10 cent:
fare: that buggicS or persons coult
be driven over the bridge withou
paying anything. but the people il
the bug9icS or wagons would have t,
pay toll for themselves.
"It was generally believed tina
this can be done. but thc city attor
nay will take the matter up at once
and max" a report TO council. 1t j:
understood that if this should not b,
possible council will find some other
way to block the free use Of diSpen
sary liquor in Augusta, and cut of
the expected trade of that institu
ton.
"Mr. Boutwell, suggested, during
the course Of the debate, that if til,
city could find no other way arount
the dispcnsary, the commissioner oi
public works cculd probably condemn
the bridge and have it torn down.

Elk Point 8; ;Akron, Ia. A-E1even innings
Elk Point played Akron on their own
grounds last Thursday afternoon at the
Catholic picnic, A good crowd was
resent end speedy game rewarded
the spectators despite the fact that the
game was stopped several times by
showers. 1t took eleven innings TO de-
eide the game, it being awarded to Ak
ron on hit by Goodwin which never
could have gone for mt re than 3bag-
ger but for the interference Of the
crowd. The playing was game from
start to finish. The first man up to
bat, Sharon, waited for Burnelte to
walk him, Browning sacrificing him to
second and Steckman went to first on a
dead ball. Strobel then pounded the
ball for . clean 3-bagger, bringing In
two runs. Norton gor single, Nc
Grath went out at frst and Dutch"
was caught at the home plate by a
double play. Akron failed to score IL
their half, as did Elk Poinrin the first
half Of the second. In Akron's half
the score was tied on Elk Point errors.
Akron got TWO men on second and
third through q combination Of two
passes and three stolen bases Ryan
threw to Sharon in an attempt to catch
the man OF second aud Sharon threw
the ball into the crowd when the rum
ner at third started home, letting in
two runs.
The two teams now settled down to
pretty close work. Both Mines drew
blanks in the third, Elk Point scoring
In The fourth through hit bY Norton,
McGrath's sacrifice and an error. This
closed Elk Poiot's scoring, although
we had man on frst in both the ninth
and tenth innings. In the tenth the
Akron rooters knitted their star twirl-.
er, Burnette, charging him with sell:
ling the game and be was benched and
Moore took his place. Goodwin's drive
In the eleventh set the crowd wild,
which rushed onto the field, interfer-
ing with our players and preventing an
out. Plenty Of AKRON people who be-

TO this and the management has made

ed elsewhere, to forfeit the game if It
occurs again. Ths score:
