Better Road Needed.

The Greenville Piedmont says a
great many tourists are going through
the country from the low-country t.,
the mountains. A great many moro
would go If the roads were put in
proper condition. And Newberry is
the gateway from the low-cou:try to
the up-country. To go to Spartan
burg or Greenville or any part of the
up-country, you must come through
Newberry. IL should be the pride Of
Newborry to have the ideal road from
the low-country and set the example
for the rest of the way. We now have
fairly good road but it needs main

BLEASE's REPLY
WAS Unsatisfactory l!4slA.T!!SS!EAAAC
SECRETARY Garrison's Demand for a
~FrOper Communications not Met.

Columbia. s. c., July 10.--That the
encampment of the three regiments
OF the National Guard will be held on
time and that the federal government
will not withdraw its appropriation
of approximately $4,000 for the main
tenance OF the state militia, now seems
probable by reason of telegram from
Governor Blease addressed to l.. M.
Garrison, secretary of war, Thursday
morning In answer to letter from
the latter received by the chief ex-
ecutive the same date, is the opinion
OF the military authorities in Columbia.
In substance. the governor assures
the secretary of war that he can be as
sured OF his Cooperation and assis-
tance in bringing about compliance
on the part of the National Guard of
this state with the provisions of the
military law as enacted by congress"
which was one of the specifications as
set forth in the secretary's letter.
The governors telegram asked the
secretary OF war to wire orders for
an encampment to begin on July II,
one week from Thursday.
The letter of Secretary Garrison,
dated In Washington, July8, Is in an
swer to a communication from Gov
ernor Blease under date Of July 5. The
communication says that federal as
sistance will Immediately be resumed
when Governor Blease resumes proper
relations with the department; that
what is meant by this is that the sec
retary can count upon the governors
cooperation and assistance in bringing
about n compliance on the part of the
National Guard with the military law
as enacted by the congress.
The action of the governor Thurs
day morning may end what has been
a source of vexation and worry to the
military mon of the state for the past
few weeks. The whole controversy,
which at times became acrimonious,
hinged on the refusal of Governor

Conspirators Divided Into Three
Groups, Each Charged With the
Killing of Department Heads.

Managua, Nicaragua, Nov. 1.-THE
frustrated plot to assassinate Presi-
dent Adolfo Diaz of Nicaragua and all
his cabinet ministers, on Oct, 29, was
laid by the conspirators with remark
able care, according to details just
published here.
The plotters, members OF the Lib
eral party, divided themselves into
three groups. The first of these was
charged with the work of killing the
president and two cabinet ministers;
the second was to assassinate Vice
President Fernando Solorzano and
the minister of foreign affairs and the
third group was to throw dynamite
bombs among the members of the
chamber of deputies while they were
in session on the afternoon of Oct 29.
The discovery of the conspirators,
while they were holding a meeting to
arrange the final details of the plot,
was accidental Nearly all of those
connected with the affair have been
arrested.

SENATE BANKING COMMITTEE
ADOPTS AMENDMENT TO THE
GLASS CURRENCY BILL.
WILL CONTROL DISCUSSIONS
Nov. IS Is Day Now Set for Measure
to Be Ready to Report Back to
Upper House-Reed of Mis-.
souri, Proposes a Plan.

Washington, Nov. 1.-THE stock of
the regional banks of the new cur
rency system will be owned by the
public and regional banks will be CON
trolled by the government. The SEN
ate banking committee incorporated
that feature in the administration cur
rency bill by a vote of seven to five
Members of the committee are re-
ceiving intimations from their homes
that the useless agitation over the cur
rency bill is beginning to have bad
effects upon business, and they are
being urged to stop the discussion and
report the bill.
Some of the Republican members of
the committee have been impressed
by these communications, and they
are preparing to curtail, as much as
possible, the discussion of the bill and
the introduction of new propositions
Bill Five Days Late.
Prospects of the bill being reported
this week have dwindled, and it Is
probable that the report will not be
ready until Nov Is, five days later
than was anticipated.
Senator Reed of Missouri, who has
insisted upon further consideration of
the bill in spite of President Wilson's s
pleas for immediate action, occupied
most of Wednesdays session with an
explanation of plan which strongly
savors of central bank.
Senator Reed proposed that the fed
eral reserve board in Washington
should be intrusted with one-third of
one-half of a II per cent reserve of all
banks which enter the system and
that the board should also control the
government moneys instead of having
them placed in the reserve banks as
proposed in the administration bill.
Central Reserve Favored.
The Reed plan would result in
amassing between S300,000,000 and
$400,000,000 in Washington in the
hands of the members of the reserve
board. The senator argued that such
a mobilization of reserves would be
of the greatest value, because the
board would then be able to control
them for the benefit of the entire sys-
TEN.

after troops are once on t3e streets.
A committee from seven civic and
commercial organizations presented a
unanimous request to Gov. Ralstou
for troops, stating the organizations
would share the responsibility for the
action. The governor intimated that
his reason for not calling the troops
last night was that they could not
be modified before morning and he
feared the announcement that the mi
litia had been called would result in a
night of lawlessness.
The fourth death due to the strike
was that of Thomas Carleton, who
