Considerable Anxiety Felt Re-
garding His Healthy
MONARCH FAIhTS THREE TIMES
Hostilities In Vicinity of Scutari Corr
tinue Because Governor Ignores
Notice of Armstice-Ref-
ugees Suffer.

London, Dec. 10.-A dispatch from
Belgrade says there is considerable
anxiety over the health of King Peter.
The king tainted three times.
The Austro-Hungarian authorities
have stopped at Fiume the steamer
Hegedisch, with cargo of 500 tons
of flour, destined for the Servian
army at Durazzo. Austria will con
fiscate the flour for the use of it's
ownJ army, thus creating a situation
similar to that brought about by the
stoppage by Turkey of Servian guns.
,HostiIites Continue.
Owing to the refusal Of the govern
or of Scutari to accept notification Of
the armistice communicated through
the German minister, hostilities con-
tinue, according to a Cetinje dispatch
to the Times. It is considered prob
able that the governors refusal meets
the wishes of the Montenegrin gov
ernment, which hopes thereby to OBJ
tain Scutari by force of arms.
A Saloniki dispatch to the Times
says the condition Of the refugees
there is becoming worse each day.
Thousands are without shelter and
smallpox and other maladies are
widespread.
Greeks Occupy Villages.
The Greeks continue their military
operations and have occupied Syrakon
and st. George, villages four hours
distant from Janina, where the rem
nants of the Turkish Monastir army
are said to have arrived.

New York Republican Chairman
States His Opinion.
PROGRESSIVE NOT REPUBLICAN
Maintains in Editorial in Albany Pa.
Per That Fight for Maintenance
of Republican Principles
Was Won in Chicago.

Albany, n. Y, Dec. 10. - William
Barnes, Jr., chairman of the Republi-
can state committee, in leading edi-
torial in his Albany Evening Journal,
says:
Reorganization, or rather, rein
vigoration of the political party whose
name is Republican, can be effected
only on the basis Of adherence to Re-
publican principles.
"Reorganized on any other basis the
party would no longer be Republican.
No Compromise with ProgressiVes.
There cannot be compromise In
volving acceptance of principles that
are un-Republican.
"The fight for maintenance of Re-
publican principles was won in the
national convention at Chicago The
defeat of the Republican party in the
election, accomplished by those of its
members who were deluded into turn
ing against it for the qualification of
an individuals greed for revenge,
does not diminish the Importance, the
significance of the victory that was
won in the convention over the fac
tion that wanted to substitute pure
democracy for representative govern
ment.
Therefore, discussion of reorgant-
cation on basis of acceptance of the
un-Republican principles, propositions
and doctrines which were repudiated
at Chicago, such as is credited to
conference Of twelve governors of
states which was held in Washington
on Saturday, is manifestly preposter-
ous."

FRAUDS ON ALL Sides
MANY ILLEGAL VOTES CAST IN
sPARTANBURG.
County Chairman Thinks That Full
Investigation Would Show Fifteen
Hundred Fraudulent Ballots.

That fully 1900 fraudulent votes
were cast in Spartanburg county in
the primary election Of last week was
the opinion expressed Tuesday by E.
l.. Archer, chairman Of the county
Democratic executive committee, al
ter a subcommittee appointed to IN
vestigate just one kind Of possible
fraud reported that 1t had found LOB
illegal votes in rs precincts. The ne
cessary documents Of most Of the 9TH
er precincts were lacking so that in
vestigation was impossible.
These 105 votes we're cast by men
whose names did not appear on the
club rolls but were placed on the
poll lists after they had voted. The
committee reported in their poll lists
and only 40 OF the S5 precincts had
turned in their club rolls, so that the
committee had been unable to do its
work with any degree Of thorough
ness.
In one precinct, Victor Mills, IA
men are allowed to vote whose
names did not appear on the rolls.
This precinct went for Blease about
two to one. Enoree, another strong
Blease precinct, also allowed many
persons to vote whose names were
not on the rolls. The subcommittee g
report, together with numerous af1-
davits In regard to the voting Of mi
nors or persons not eligible to vote
for other reasons, will be presented
to the State executive committee at
Columbia by J. H. Gosnell Of Inman
executive committeeman from Spar.

Protests against the entire vote al
Arkwright, Cherokee Springs and
Trough will also be presented to the
committee, the county committee de.
Gliding not to decide these contests
because no matter how they were de.
cided it would Rot affect the relative
standing Of tho candidates for county
Offices.

Following the supplementary in
strctions from the Post Office depart
ment which had been Issued concern

and hotels. The orders are in COM
pliauce with a recent Act Of Congress
and issue dfrom tn eCffice OF the drst
assistant Postmaster General. The
supplementary instructions received

From numerous communications

pear sto be some misapprehenslon

alton Act for the fiscal year ending
June 80, 1913, relating to the deiiV-
cry of mail on Sunday at first and
second class post Offices concerning
which certain instructions were is-
sued by circular letter dated on the
2sth instant.
This provision as construed by
1.-The Postmaster General does not re-
quire that the lobbies OF such offices
be closed on Sunday but simply that
the delivery Of mail to the general
delivery, carrier windows, and boxes
| be discontinued. Mall received IN
time for distribution into such boxes
before midnight on Saturday should
be distributed to the boxes, and be
available to lock-box holders on Sun
day, as usual.
"The only mail that will be affect
ed under the Postmaster Generals
construction Of the new law Is that

which has hitherto been distributed
10 lock-boxes, and Of this mail that
intended for newspapers, and fer ho-
tel guests. and also newspapers ad-
dressed to uwsdealers, should be dis
tributed to the boxes as hitherto.

6uce as far as practicable the amount
of Sunday labor in pos.otices. How

nations mus the continued, and nor

tions herein are carefully observed
with refernec to putting up mail In
the Office of origin satisfactory dis
tribution can be made in postofhces
on Sunday with even less work than
is now required and without incon-
venience to the public"

CHARGE GREAT fraud
MT. CARMEL CITIZENS CONDEMN
THE PRIMARIES.
Declare There Has Been No Honest
Nomination and Express Prefer
ence for General election.

The following letter has bean ten
dered to the Augusta Chronicle for
publication:
"Mt. Carmel, S. c., Sept. 3, 1912.
ITO the State Executive Committee,
to Judge Ira B. Jones, to Gov. Cole
L. Blease, to All Citizens of South
Carolina:
Every intelligent citizen Of South
Carolina knows that the primary
election just held was the greatest
farce since the days of '76; that the
ballot boxes were stuffed to the ex-
tent Of $1,000 votes at the, lowest es-
innate. Who did it? In Anderson
the increase over 1910 was 1,700,
Blease got 1900 Of them. In Dillon
the increase over 1910 was 700,
Blease got 600 OF them. In Chester
field the increase over 1910 was 900,
Blease got 700 Of them. In Florence
the increase over 1910 was 1900,
Blease got 1900 Of them. In Clar-
endon the increase over 1910 was
ATS, Blease got 425 Of them. In
Kershaw the increase over 1910 was
$50, Blease got $50 of them. In Oc-
once the increase over 1910 was l.
600, Blease got $50 OF them. In good
many others, for example, Horny.
"Weuld Jones men stuff ballot
boxes with Ylease votes? The above
facts show that there has been nc
honest nomination for governor, and
therefore all Democrats are released
from their promise to support the
nominee. Should we have second
primary, would it not be worse? II
we wait two years, will 1t not be still
worse? The legislature can not now
pass a bill over the veto Of BleaSe
and therefore the primary law car
not be corrected.
There is only one remedy, an6
that is take the matter into the gen
eral election and elect decent man
for governor. II Judge Jones cal
not run, select some other good mar
and elect him. We have majority
Of the qualified voters Of the State
and can elect whom we choose. Why
not do it? 1t Is the only hope fol
good government.
