Chicago, March 11.-(Argus Spe-
ciaI.)-2:15 p.m.-The Three-Eye mag
mates are caucusing and may not
meet for the afternoon session till late.
There is talk of Hollands withdraw
ine from the race for president in the
interests Of harmony. If he does the
contest will lie between M. n. Sexton
of Rock Island and Judge Fox of
Peoria.
There is also a possibility that Du-
bvque. which was voted out of the
league this morning. may be rein
stated after the election of officers, it
being apparent that the disfranchse-
ment was either in the interest of
baseball politics or with view to es-
tablishing precedent as to the
ls1eue's prerogatives to prescribe and
govern its own membership.
Chicago. March 11-(Associated
Press. AT the adjourned annual
meeting of the Three-Eye baseball
league, which opened here today, a
deadlock resulted over the Dubuque
franchise. 1t was said there was little
prospect of an early settlement. The
trouble began when Richard Kinsella
of Springfield presented a resolution
forfeiting the Dubuque charter. a
long debate followed. When the roll
call was taken it was found the meet
ing was evenly divided. with Rock
Island and Dubuque being privileged
to votes. The representatives of Gin
ton. Rock Island Peoria and Dubuque
were against the adoption of the reso
luton. while Bloomington, Springfield
Decatur and Cedar Rapids maintained
the charter should be forfeited. The
election of the president is also eX
Pected TO cause q warm contest.

The meeting has been postponed to
a later date in order to avoid mis-
construction. That is to say it will
never be held. Yet, as we remarked
the other day, some Of the promoters
Of the conference were candid
enough to admit that party harmony
could not be promoted hv antagoni-
zlng Mr.. Bryan. Their inconsistent
cy lay in supposing that they could
differentia tie the man and the plat
form and repudiate one without Of
Tending the other. If the Democrat
ic party gets together, it ought to
be obvious by this time, it will have
to harmonic on radical platform
or not at all. Any other compro-
mise would lead to a second defeat
as disastrous as that'of 1904"

Must Toe the Mark.

The Democratic party will not try
the disastrous experiment of 1904
again in 1908. This is clearly indica
ted by the fiat failure of the attempt
to hold a conference of Democrats
for the purpose of harmonizing par
ty differences by eliminating Bryan
through the patent trick of adopting
a platform of principles, upon which
he could not stand. although" as
the Washington Herald says ian ef-
fort was made to give the contcm-
plated gathering an appearance Of
fairness and impartiality, most of
the Democrats invited to attend it
were so suspicious Of its purpose
that they declined to take part in it.
They would not have anything to do
with a movement that could even
be suspected of an anti-Bryan flavor.
The times and democrat. [volume] (Orangeburg, S.C.) 1881-current, 1908-01-31
We Should Help.

We make no apology for saying
that the people Of this city should
raise some funds to help our dis
franchised voters to carry their case
to the United States Supreme Court
for final adjudication. The rever-
sal of the State Supreme Courts de-
cision means more to this city than
it does to the men who were dis
franchised. If it is allowed to stand,
we predict that in a year at least
three more counties will be formed
out of portions of Orangeburg and
adjacent counties. We would have
no objections to this if all the voters
were allowed to vote and they so
declared, but the trouble will be
that most of the voters who might
be opposed to the formation Of
such counties would be disfranchis-
ed by the manipulation of the var
ious new county lines, which would
make their formation sure. This is
the condition that confronts this
city, and if she does not want to
.ose much of her very best terri
tory, she had better take steps look
ing to the testing of the State Su-
preme Courts decision by the Unit
ed States Supreme Court, which
we feel sure would set it aside.

THERE are good negroes and Grim

are good white men and criminal
white men. But there is this differ
ence between the two classes, in the
two races. The criminal white men
have ne sc cial sta, ding with the good
white people, while the criminal ne
gro men are looked upon as martyrs
by their race when they come back
