Messrs. W. r. Bradford Of Fort Mill,
and J. G.. WilbOrn of Yorkville. were
nominated for the position of state
executive committeeman, and the vot-
ing by ballot resulted in the reelection
of Mr.. Wilborn, 73 to 80.
Chairman Wilson. of the executive
committee submitted a report, adopted
by that committee at a recent session.
providing that hereafter such funds as
might be in the committees hands at
the end Of the campaign. after all debts
had been paid, should be applied to
paying the per diem and milea ge of the
committeeman as far as the same
would go. Mr.. Wilson explained that
the committee now has on hand the
sum of $177.72: that 1t has not seen
proper to vote pay for itself, but feeling
that the committeeman should be enti-
tied to pay for their services, desired
to put 1t up to the convention to es-
tabish the rule that committeeman
should be paid hereafter. The propo-
sition was discussed at length, some
of the delegates favOring the idea of
paying the retiring executive commit
tee with funds now on hand and 9TH
ers being willing to establish the per
diem rule for the hereafter. The
whole proposition of paying the COM
mittemen was finally voted down by
an overwhelming majority.
The question of confirming the new
executive committee was raised;
but when the point was made that un-
der the party constitution. committee
men are elected in the precinct meet
ingS. and the convention has nothing
to do with their confirmation. the
matter was disposed of by publishing
the names of the new committeeman
for the benefit of the convention. The
