CONVENTION OF "LILY
WHITES" Is POSTPONED
Capers' Party in This State Meets Mid
die May-Awaiting Action Other
States.

The State convention of the Republi-
can party Of South Carolina, that wing
of the party known as the lilly white, "
will not hold it's convention on May 4,
Saturday, of this week. the date for
merly set for the convention but will
meet later in the montE, about the
18th. The purpose OF :he postpone
ment is to await developments
throughout the country in the Republi-
can party's ranks. The call had been
sent out for the meeting Of the con-
vention on Saturday, but the date has
been changed and the call for the con-
vention on another day will be pub
ished shortly.
Mr.. L. W. C. Blaioc!I, of Goldville,
chairman of the executive committee
of this party, was il Columbia Tues
day and he stated that the purpose OF
the postponement was to await d.evel-
opments in other parts of the country,
for instance in Massachusetts, which
decides Tuesday, and other Republi-
can States that have not as yet ex-
pressed themselves as to thei: choice
for president. He said that the party
has several weeks yet in which to
hold its convention and that the con-
vention will probably meet about the
middle of May.
"Black and Tans" for Taft
The wing of the Republican party
of which Mr.. Blalock is head is known
as the "lily white" or the Capers
party. The Talbert wing, known as
the "black and tan" party, met sew
eral weeks ago in this city and elect
ed delegates to the national conVen-
ton and instructed for Taft.
Meet in Theatre?
The Republican national convention
meets in June and the Blalock wing
will before that time elect it's dele
gates to the national convention. The
convention will likely meet in the
theatre in Columbia at noon on the
day to be announced later, and dele
gates to the national convention will
be chosen and the party reorganized.
Delegates Number 125.
There will be 125 delegates to the
State convention Of the "lily white
party, these being chosen according
to the representation in the general as
sembly, the proportion having been
settled according to the representa-
ton of several years ago. The rules
of the party will at a meeting in the
future, probably by the convention this
year, be changed so as to increase the
number of delegates. Several new
counties have been created in recent
years, but as yet no changes have been
made to increase the number of dele
gates.
Whether or not this wing of the
Republican party will send an in
structed delegation and if so for whom
to the national convention will depend
largely on the action of other Repub-
lican States.
