LOWNDES ]. BROWNING
DEFEATED IN UNION
CLUB FAILED TO ELECT HIM A
DELEGATE.
No Effect on Primary This Summer
But Just as Well to Give Both
Sides

1t is probable the election Of dele
gates to the various county conVen-
tions is very little indicative of the
political sentiment of the State; but
inasmuch as several newspapers have
made a great hurrah about the fact
that Mr.. George R. Rembert withdrew
from his club meeting in Columbia
without letting his name be voted up
on for a delegate, charging slate
against him, and inasmuch as these
newspapers are prominently display
ing in big headlines the defeat of any
pronounced Blease leader for a seat
in his county convention, it may be
only fair to give both sides, and to
state that the Hon. Lowndes J. Brown
ing was defeated in his club in Union
county for delegate to the county con-
vention in Union.
Mr.. Browning is chairman of the
ways and means committee of the
house of Representatives, and was one
of those prominently engaged in the
steam roller" practice against the
Blease measures in the last house OF
representatives. He was one of the
anti-Blease leaders. His club at Sc
dalia not only defeated him for the
county convention, but elected a
Blease delegation.
This will probably not have any ef-
feet on the primaries this summer, nor
will the Rembert matter in Columbia
have any effect, nor the other matters
connected with the precinct club meet
ings. 1t is fact that very few of the
precinct club meetings were at all full
ly attended, and if they had been, the
election of delegates to the county con-
ventions would have been far from in
dicative of the way the votes will fall
this summer.
But while the effort is being made to
draw the lines, it is just as we'll to give
both sides. Give the whole facts, let
the chips fall where they may. The
| people are entitled to the whole truth.

UNDERWOOD CARRIES
FLORIDA AND GEORGIA
SAID CONGRESSMAN HAS CARRIED
GEORGIA BY 10000.
Far in the Lead in FlOrida-Under-
wood and Wilson the Main
Contestants.

Atlanta, Ca, May 1.-Early returns
from the presidential preference prl-
mary held in Georgia today indicate
that Oscar Underwood, of Alabama,
will carry majority of the counties.
Returns from l13 counties show that
in "a Underwood had majority over
Wilson of 1885, while in 29 counties
Wilson gets a majority over Under
wood of 1882. In five or six counties
heard from the vote is so close that
an official count will be necessary to
decide the winner. The Atlanta Con-
stitution, an Underwood paper, in its
early editions is claiming the State for
Underwood by 10000 majority.
Warm, sunny weather throughout
the State resulted in unusually heaVy
votes in the cities and the towns, but
in the country precincts the vote was
light, the farmers taking advantage OF
the weather to continue farm work.
While the names of Judson Harmon
and Champ Clark also appeared on the
ballot today only a scattering vote was
cast for them, the fight in this State
being between Underwood and Wilson.
A State convention to ratify the ac-
ton of the voters will be held here
On May 10.

Chamber of Commerce Has
Most Delightful Banquet

ever been erected in one day anywhere
in the world. A church was built in
Waco, Texas, in one day, but not near
" so large as the building here.
Almost everybody in Spartanburg
spent part of the day at the scene OF
the new building. Hundreds OF anna
teurs and professional photographers
were on hand. A moving picture con-
Germ had representative here and ne
made many pictures of the work at its
various stages. No less than ten thou
sand people were there during the
day. 1t was necessary for the Street
Car company to operate many addi-
tional cars all day long. The force OF
men was composed Of 126 carpenters
mechanics, painters and electricians.
These were divided into several squads
and each had it's foreman.
Dedication Success.
The church was dedicated tonight,
appropriate talks made by the pastor
of Bethel Methodist church, who con-
ceived the idea of building El-Bethel
in one day; the Rev. ]. W. Speake, c.
P. Hammond, chairman of the build
ing committee; the Rev. ]. W. Shell,
who took an active interest in the one
day church, materially aided in com
pleting the edifce, and others also
spoke. The Bible used in dedicatine
the building was the property of Miss
Carrie McMakin and was used when
the first Methodist church in Spartan
burg was erected. This was over one
hundred years ago. One man drove
his mule eight miles through the coun-
try to witness the erection of this
church. The mule is over 80 years
old and has been driven to Method1s1
church every Sunday for the past 2t
years without missing single Sunday

CLARK AND TAFT HAVE
CARRIED MASSACHUSETTS,
But Peculiar Situation Has Arisen
Growing Out of the Primaries.

Boston, Mass, May Lille Ieluso1
of the Republican delegates at large
to accept Col. Roosevelt's decision to-
day that they should vote for Presi-
dent Taft at the Chicago convention,
although elected as Roosevelt dele
gates has further complicated the sit
uation arising from the State primary
yesterday. The situation is acknowl-
edged by party leaders of both sides
to be without parallel in the political
history of the commonwealth. Al
though the Republicans of the State
elected President Taft as their can
didat, for denomination by majority
of 1856 over Col. Roosevelt On the
presidential preference ballot, at the
same time they elected by decisive
vote the entire slate of eight delegates
at large pledged to the former pres1-
dent. Col. Roosevelt secured ten
more delegates in the district election.
and the president carried nine dis
tricts, so that Taft and Roosevelt each
have IS delegates from the State TO
the national convention.
On Democratic Side.
Some similar situation was created
by the Democratic ballot. Speaker
Clark, who had no pledged delegates
on the ticket, won 2 to 1 victory
over Gov Wilson in the presidential
preference contest At the same time
delegates at large pledged to Gov.
Foss, of Massachusetts,, were elected to
attend the Baltimore convention,
though the name of Gov. Foss did not
appear. in the presidential preference
column.
Roosevelt followers have announced
their intention of asking recount in
the Eighth district, while the Taft men
will do likewise in the Ninth, on ac-
count of the closeness of the vote. In
his request to the delegates at large,
Col. Roosevelt declared it to be his
wish to abide by the will OF the
people. and that therefore the dele
gates, though elected as pledged to
him, should vote for Mr.. Taft who
had received the presidential prefer
ence vote. One by one the delegates,
as they were heard from today, how
ever, protested that under no circum-
stances would they cast their ballots
other than as they had been pledged.

Postprandial Talks.

PoStprandial Talks.
Following the supper there were
several happy addresses. President
John NJ. Kinard, of the chamber OF
commerce, was toast master, and un-
der his skilful and graceful direction
the aims of the chamber of commerce
and the appeal for the cooperation OF
all business Newberry were succinct-
ly presented, and the speakers appro-
priately introduced.
Work of Chamber of Commerce.
President Kinard, after remarking
upon the inspiring scene, and paying
tribute to the charm Of the ladies,
said the chamber of commerce was
fortunate in having more in the organ
ization than ever before He spoke
of the faithful work Of the first presi-
dent, Mr.. z. F. Wright, and Of the
presidents who had succeeded Mr..
Wright-Dr. o. B. Mayer, Mr.. I. Il.
Hunt, and Mr. John B. Mayes. He
said the chamber of commerce was this
year working for two or three pre-
eminent things. One was the better
ment of the sanitary conditions OF
Newberry. Another was a county hos
pital, permission having been secured
on Tuesday to open books of subscrip-
ton to the capital stock of a $4,000
corporation, the books of subscription
to be opened on May 10. Another thing
was a public library. He spoke of
the work of the chamber of commerce
under way for these things, and spoke
confidently of the success of the up-
dertakings.
It was a matter of regret that the
first speaker on the program, Mayor
Wade Hampton Gibbes, of Columbia,

BRILLIANT SOCIALLY;
EPOCHAL COMMERCIALLY
GETTING CLOSER TOGETHER FOR,
A GREATER NEWBERRY.
An Elegant Supper Seryed-SeveraE
Happy Addresses-Oecasion Was
Generally Inspirational.
(By Jno. K. Aull.)

The annual banquet of the Newberry
chamber of commerce on Tuesday
night was one of the most brilliant
occasions in the social life of the city,
and was significant in the commercial
advancement of Newberry. The cham
ber of commerce is reaching out after
tangible things in the building OF
Greater Newberry, and the business
comradeship engendered and strength
ened by the gathering of Tuesday
night can not but be far-reaching in
it's results. "The greatest good to the
greatest number, and any good thing
for the city and county of Newberry,
was the sentiment which permeated
the atmosphere of the occasion, and
will be the motto of the chamber OF
commerce during the coming year.
The banquet was served in the din
ing room Of the Crotwell hotel. The
supper was prepared by the ladies OF
the A. R. P. church. A delightful
menu had been arranged, and the sup
per was all that could be desired.
Quantities of red and white roses, ar
tistically arranged, adorned the tables
and in the centre Of the cross tables
was huge basket of roses. The whole
arrangement was in excellent tastes
and the effect was in keeping with the
whole spirit of the evening.
Many ladies added the charm of their
presence to the occasion. Music was
furnished by the Newberry concert
band, and appropriate songs were sung
by the Newberry college sextette. The
bright lights, the flowers, the music
and the many lovely costumes OF the
ladies combined with the spirit Of good
fellowship in a tout ensemble animated
and brilliant.
