WALHALLA. SOUTH CAROLINA.
IN OUR COUNTY POLITICS.
List of the Candidates Who Will Be
Voted for Next Tuesday.

On the second page of this issue of
The Courier we present to our read
ers a full tabulation of the voting
for the various candidates, State.
county and Congressional, at all the
precincts in Oconee. These tabula-
ions always prove interesting and
often very valuable for reference. We
note that two errors have crept into
this table, one for which we are re-
sponsible and one not ours. The total
vote of Capt. V. f. Martin, for Judge
OF Probate, is given as 2,777, when
it should be 2,797, the 50" in origi-
nal copy not being entirely clear. In
the vote for Congress, Wyatt Aiken's
total is given as 1912, but should
have been 1642, difference of 26O
votes. We are not responsible. for
this error, and it is simply one of
those things that are liable to creep
into any hurried and extensive tabu-
lation. demonstrating the totals
with this correction Mr.. Aiken re-
ceived 10,S19 votes in the Congress
sional District, f. ii. Dominick $40.
Frank S. Evans SGT and John A. Hor-
ton 2,64S. This leaves Wyatt Aiken.
opposed to Bleaseism, to be opposed
by f. II. Dominick, supporter Of Mr..
Blease and friend of the administers
ton, in the second race next Tues
day.
In the County.
BY the "weeding-out" process of
August 25th there will be q second

resentatives between James H.
Brown, Of the Oakway section; Elias
Earle, of the Townville section:
Harry r. Hughs, Of Walhalla, and
Frank H. Shirley, Of Westminster, at
present Representative.
The only other candidates to run a
second race are for the office Of Su-
pervisor of Registration, and there
will be two to be chosen, as one,
John l.. Reeder, was reelected, he
having received a majority of the
votes cast for the office The second
race will be between ]. A. Bischoff,
of Walhalla; John w. Cannon, of
Salem; w. H. Crawford, South I'm
ion section, and Geo. B. Whitten, who
lives in the country near Walhalla.
Correction of Statement. y <
+ In feporting the Campaign expenses
we fell into error, getting the state
ments OF James H. Brown for the
House of Representatives, and John
H. Brown, for County Treasurer,
each accredited to the wrong man.
James II. Browns account footed up
$3.50, and that of John H. Brown
$44.1O, while we had it just the re-
verse. We regret the error, and call
attention to it merely to keep the
record straight."'

WILSON S MESSAGE
Document Was Conservative and
Will Help to Restore Conf
denCe of Investor.
BY CHARLES w. STORM,

NEW YORK Jan. 20,-Speculatlon as
to the nature and probable effect Of
President Wilson's trust message was
without effect on the stock market to-
day, except to cause a feeling of hest
fancy in some quarters.
New York closely followed the lead of
the London market, whose traders had
exhibited a cautious front and the price
changes at the opening here were malt-
ly confined to fractions.
The most notable exception was Can
adam Pacific, which was outside of the
direct influence Of the presidential mes
sage. Canadian Pacific fell is to 2124s
within the FIRST fifteen minutes, but
ultimately made a partial recovery.
This was equal to the decline recorded
In the London cables and was attributed
by some brokers to the operations of a
newly formed pool In that stock.
Among the declines here were Utah
Copper y, United States Steel common
4. Amalgamated Copper "a Chesapeake
and Ohio u. Erie Is, Great Northern
ore u.
Trading was not on large scale.
Americans in London were firm, but
traders evinced a tendency to await the
Wilson message. Canadian PACING in
London was reactionary, Not only were
pool operations held responsible, but
an article in The Financial Times pre-
dicted that the system might have diff
ficuty this year In financing the needs
of the road. Mexican railway shares
from the London Exchange were to 3
points higher on reports from Mexico
that Huerta might resign soon.
After the first hour Of trading the
general list was quiet and price changes
in the leading issues were confined with
in a narrow range. Mexican Petroleum,
however. was an exception, jumping
fractionally until It advanced points
Western Union moved up "A and some
of the low priced specialties were in
better demand. Union Pacific and Read
ing advanced u. Steel and the copper
issues were unchanged
Call money loaning at Q per cent.
Price changes were unimportant In the
last hour. Western Union went to 601h
for gain over the midday range, but
Steel sold off slightly. Canadian Pacific
sold around 215as for a gain of g from
the noon price, Mexican Petroleum held
around sos. American Smelling de-
clined.
The market closed steady.
Government bonds unchanged Other
bonds steady.

of larger ginning forecasts 1t is not
likely, however. that 10000 or 10000
bales more in the coming Census report

Liverpool sends the bullish news that
goods business with India shows no de-
crease, in spite Of reports of bad trade
conditions in that country.
Our market opened few points easier
In sympathy with New York, but there
was no inclination to follow any bear
move; futures are at too great a dis
count; the coming Census report is con
sidered too unimportant. and spot peo-
pie report a strong situation In the &C
tual. A large export short interest Is
thought to exist with exporters for Feb
ruary. March shipment and competi-
ton to obtain the qualities sold is liza
BILE to cause further advance in spot
prices.
The market settled around 1895 for
May and is quiet but steady.
The movement Is very heavy, giving
promise Of large exports In the near flu
ture. but Fridays statistics will appear
beartsh on the surface and, combined
with a Census publication, a recession
is most likely. for which. however, a
large spot and contract short interest
seems to be hoping in order to cover
to better advantage.

Schill and Rice were the principal sell
ers. Rice sales was thought to be for
some spot houses. New Orleans and
Wall street bought
The market has no snap. but general
sentiment continues bunish.
New York wired New Orleans that the
selling was due chiefly in expectation
of large ginning figures, but conserva-
tive cotton men in New Orleans said
that there was no inclination there to
follow the decline, as futures are too
much under spot prices and that 20,00O
or 80, 900 bales more in the coming Cen
sus report means nothing.
Spot people say there is a large short
interest for February March shipments
among exporters and competition to get
the stuff will put prices higher.-kofier
Memphis reports that besides $500
spots sold yesterday at &c advance
about 1000 bales were sold after hours
yesterday at full prices.
New Orleans wires: '"Option prevails
that a considerable short interest is In

easiness on the Census report in order

mand is already showing up here to-day

Mayer & Co. recently that spots are

Can the market be hulled from this
level? Bulls think II can be, especially
as they are counting on some 300, 00t
bales of very low grade cotton in ad-
dition to about 100000 to 100000 bales
of linters.
