sometime ago drew the attention Of the

not some of the ladies from each

Jail, for two or three days, say once
a month, if required that often, and

sadly neglected.
If this were done, nave no doubt
the plots would be cared for with
more interest and pride by their own

so as to at least improve and add to
the beauty of this spot sacred to the

THE CONVICT NATTER.
Disposition of COnvicts May be Decid.
ed Next Week.

Columbia, November 3.-Final de-
cision as to what disposition is to be
made of the convicts which were en-
ployed in the hosiery mill in the State
peni:entiary will probably be reached
ty the board of directors when they
meet on Wednesday of next week. The
hosiery mill contract with John M.
Graham expired on Saturday and the
convicts ceased work on that day the
contract having been abolished by the
last general assembly.
The decision to hire out the convicts
to counties from which they were SEN
fenced at 81 per month apiece and to
work the rest, which includes those
too dangerous to be let out to coun-
ties and those decrepid and sick, in a
furniture factory, which is to be in
stalled in the penitentiary, was reach
ed some time ago. The board made a
contract with IA d. Martin, of Louis
vile, KY, to sell the output Of the fur
niture factory but this whole matter
is hanging fire. 1t is thought that
whatever disposition is made of the
conyicts will only be temporary, and
that the general assembly will likely
be asked to indicate what disposition
they wish made of the convicts.
There were some 30O-odd convicts
employed in the hosiery mill, Several
counties have put in bids for the con-
victs on the terms announced, 81 per
month, and there will be an override
mand for them. 1t is said that over
one dozen counties have asked for con-
victs and the board will likely consider
this feature when they meet in month
ly session.

Mr. Lever Waiting to Size Up the Sit

Friends.

Lexington, November 3.-When
Congressman A. F. Lever was shown
copy of The Sunday News, in which
it's Columbia correspondent reports
the political gossip heard at the State
fair, and was; asked to make a state
ment about it, he said:
''It is interesting gossip, but as lar
as l am concerned it is only gossip.
| reiterate what | have said so many
times, that l am still considering the
proposition of entering the senatorial
race for the place now held by Sen
ator Smith. am trying to ascertain
as best. l can the judgment and the
desire of those who have been respon-
sible for my career in public life.
"Tne rumor that Governor Blease
and 1 held conference in Washing
ton recently, or at any other place. at
any time, about the senatorial situa-
ton, or with reference to anything
else, is wholly without foundation; in
fact, as Governor Blease says, cur
meeting in Washington, recently, was
entirely accidental, and our conversa-
tion was carried on in the presence of
Mrs. Lever and did not last over five
minutes.
"My final determination in this mat
ter will be fixed by the judgement and
the wishes of my friends, both in the
district and in the State, and by my
own conception Of what my duty is
in the premises. What little success
have mad las been due to the kind
ness OF my friends, to their loyalty to
me AMI to my own energy in serving
the people, and not to any combination
or shrewd political manipulation. am
now too old to begin that game.
1'If l run for the senate it will be
because my friends and l think I
should. If 1 do not it will be be-
cause we do not think 1 should, and
that is ali there is to it."

resary, arrived in Lexington tonight
and Will be with his chief for several

TAMMANY OVERWHELMED;

MINISTRATION.
Massachusetts Elects Walsh by a
Large Majority and Wilson's COM
mOnWealth Returns Fielder.

New York, Nov. 4.-Election re-
turns at late hour tonight showed a
complete triumph for the democrats
in Massachusetts, where a governor
and State ticket were chosen in
four-cornered fight; the selection Of
a democratic governor and State
ticket in Virginia without contest; the
ascendency of fusion over Tammany
in New York city with indication of
republican victory for the New York
assembly and judicial ticket, AID a
close fight for the State ticket in New
Jersey, where President Wilson and
administration forces, apparently with
success, fought to elect James I. Field
er to the governorship. In Maryland
democratic senator was chosen.
In Massachusetts David 1. Walsh,
democrat, present lieutenant govern
or, was elected by a plurality Of about
$4,000 over Augustus P. Gardner, Re
publican, Charles R. Bird, progressive,
and Gov. Eugene Foss, Independent
Henry C. Stuart was chosen governor
of Virginia, together with an entire
State ticket, Republicans and Pro-
gressives having declined to name
candidates because of inability to
agree on united ticket.
Late returns indicated that the VIC
tory Of the democrats in Massachu-
sets had been duplicated in New Jer-
sey, where James F. Fielder has been
elected for full term. The demo-
cratic plurality was estimated at 20,-
900. The complexion of the legisla-
ture was long time in doubt, but
Essex county returns indicated that
it would be democratic by 20 to IL.
Fielder, who succeeded President Will
son as governor Of New jersey, had
the support of the national admins
tration, several of the cabinet taking
the stump in his behalf. President
Wilson and his policies were made the
dominant issues.
In New York city the triumph Of
the fusion ticket was assured, and late
returns from the State indicated re-
publican chief judge of the court of
appeals and nine supreme justices.
For United States senator, Maryland
chose Blair Lee, democrat.
Democracy triumphed also in the
Twentieth New York congressional
district, where Jacob H. Cantor was
elected; the Thirteenth New York,
George ". Loft succeeding the late
"Tim' Sullivan, and the Third Mary
land, Charles P. Coady being the
choice.
Returns from the Third Massachu-
sets have not been received at late
hour, but democratic leaders claimed
victory.
