questions and confer with Ollie James
The last paragraph In the resolu-
tons Is the minority report and was
finally adopted by a vote of rs to
"a. 1t caused the biggest fight of
the day. Some of the politicians did
not want TO instruct the delegation.
but others, knowing that some Of
them could not be trusted further
than you can throw q bull by. the
tail, fought for instructions. They
won their fight but gained nothing.
The delegates are In the hands of Oh
lie James. James is a supporter of
Champ Clark-but the real "nigger
In the woodpile" is state organization
for or against the state administra-
ton. The real issue was not aired.
IL wasn't a question Of endorsing OIL
lie or instructing for Clark, but a
fight for State Executive Committee
Craftsmanship. The present state ad-
ministration was given a slap as a
result OF the resolutions adopted, and
Stevenson was endorsed over Van
SAINT for chairman. The latter repre-
sents the local option element and
was against the prison and other
gratis In our recent fight, when Nc
Creary carried the state back into
the Democratic ranks by a majority
OF over 10000. This was a joker
that probably few of the men In the
convention understood. Such a change
would mean the organization of a new
state machine. which opposes the plat
form of our present administration.
We could have endorsed Ollie-we
could have instructed for Clark-we
could have endorsed our State Sena-
tor. Frost and Gov. McCreary-could
have expressed our appreciation Of the
county unit. etc.-all this without
surrendering everything In one lump,
and thereby losing nine points to
gain one.
In short. those fellows who are
hunting Jobs again are counting Oh
lie James-kanging to his coat-tails
to get back again TO a state teat.
They are wolves in sleeps clothing.
Fulton county should hold conven-
lions that are worthy the name. Why
should our Democrats assemble and
become the football OF all kinds OF
political riff-raff-men who are try
ing TO get back at the prison board
trough. men from some other state.
men who steal conventions with i'm
punity or throw out a whole primary
vote with brazen grace. men who
haven't paid their poll tax in three
years. men who have fixed the dope
In gumshoe conclaves In Louisville,
and prohibition men who drink whis-
key and ride automobiles furnished by
the "also RAM" Did Il ever occur
to you that We Democrats, who do
the rolling up Of majorities, are dam
phools--not knowing sometimes what
we stand for. and occasionally SELL
ing our birthright for a mess of pot
tage?
The party leaders claim 1t was
great victory; a harmonious conven-
ton and love-feast; the coming to-
gether OF Democracy in one great ac-
cord; an Justification OF the Demo
cratic rock OF Gibraltar.

WASHINGTON. August 15.-For

General Wickersham
probably has something on most
cabinet officers. II has long been
the custom of government officers
to make use OF little emoluments
which come whiting their preroga-

in most cases believe himself en-
titled to use of the ranking priv.
lege even when sending out per
sonal letters n he made a speech
he would have the government print
ing office print it at government ex-
pense.
But not so with Wickersham. II
he addresses any member OF his
Family by mail he uses a stamp
which he pays for himself. II he
sends out any mail matter which
might under any circumstances be
construed as private business and
mot strictly concerned with the gov.
ernment's affairs he pays for the
postage. When he makes a speech
and his friends send In for copies
he has II printed at his own ex-

energy TO get the statesman anything

PROBABLE FAMINE IN COAL.
Price Has Gone Way up and Article
Scarce Even Then.

1t is probable that people of the
city who have not already Purchased
their coal and who depend upon coal
during the winter for heating will
have hard time Of it this winter.
If present conditions remain un-
changed. A dealer in the article stat
ed a few days ago that at present coal
had gone up to sS.75 to $500 a ton
and that 1t could not be secured even
then without great difficulty. He had
purchased coal in the summer and
had disposed OF it, but would not get
any more as long as the present
prices were maintained.
With these conditions in view house
holders are not promised an easy time
OF IT. during the approaching cold
weather. Last year there was a scar
city Of coal during one Of the cold
spells and there was a great deal Of
inconvenience by it and much grumb-
ling. This winter, it is predicted, will
be even more severe than last, so the
outlook at present is not at all bright.

GREENVILLE FRAME.UP
Some Explanations Are Given for Ar
rests in Greenville.

Greenvlle. Oct. 3O.-Concerning
the manner in which Messrs. Gilreath
Phillips and Gosnell were arrested
Sunday night. and the treatment ac-
corded them, some rather interesting
developments came to light yester-
day.
great many people have been Gu
rious to know why Magistrate Strad-
ley authorized Sheriff Hendrix
Rector to execute the warrants when
Deputy Sheriff John S. Hunsinger,
Sheriff j. Perry Poole or other off,
GERS were available. Magistrate
Stradley was asked for statement
yesterday in regard to the matter and
following is what he said:
"As was at tea Sunday evening
Hendrix Rector, w. L. Mauldin and
Jack Power came to my house with
three warrants already made out
and requested that sign them. I did
80, and turned the warrants over to
write on the back Of it the officer
whom I would designate to make the
arrests. l found that the name Of
Hendrix Rector had already been in
serted in the blank. asked why
Sheriff Poole could not serve the
warrants. and Rector replied that
Sheriff Poole had requested that he
(Rector) be designated to make the
arrests. took him at his word and
assented. Now any man who says
that this is not the way the thing
took place is a lair, and let him come
to me II he doesn't like it,"
When the warrants were sworn
out and the arrests were made Sheriff
Poole was not in Greenville. Sher-
if Poole deplores the manner in
which the arrests were carried out,
and stated yesterday that II he had
been here he would have telephoned
Mr.. Gilreath that a warrant had been
issued for him and would have re-
quested him to come down and bring
his bondsmen.
II never thought for a moment
that the warrants were going TO be
served Sunday night" said Magis-
trate Stradley yesterday afternoon.
Il naturally supposed that Mr.. Rec
tor would wait until Monday and tel
ephone the three men that warrants
had been issued for them and ask
them to come down and bring their
bondsmen.'
