CSlUMBIA's LIQUOR FIGHT

Columbia is Just now in the throes
OF e. campaign to close up the places
whsse liquor is being sold Illegally.
This is ,y-sry hopeful, and we trust
the good people of our capital city
will succeed in making Of the city a
place as clean as any city In tho coun-
try. AS an example to the rest Of
South Carolina. the capital should be
pure and spotless, and there should
be no let up till such results are ac-
compl.shed.

hear. that It is much harder task to
make Columbia clean than 1t was for

ports are to be believed the tiger was

OF the liquor laws as It is possible
for any violation to be anywhere. In

they should also be allowed to have

the multiplication of clubs and places
where liquors are illegally sold.
This Is true In Anderson us well as
In Columbia. and the liquor sold In
the so-called gentlemen's clubs Is sold
Just as Illegally. as IL sold in a dive

unite the party along the lines sug-
gested by Senator Borah in his letter
read before the meeting.
First; We regard an adequate pro-
tective tariff policy as absolutely es.
sential to the welfare of the American
farmer and laborer, and we denounce
the Democratic party for robbing the
farmer of his home market and the
laborer OF the opportunity to convert
his only capital into adequate wage
as evidenced by the very largely in
creased importation of the products
of labor of foreign countries without
any noticeable decrease in the cost oil

Third: We further recognize the
growing temperance sentiment in Ida

the submission to the voters at the
first opportunity of an amendment to
the Constitution of the state, forever
prohibiting the sale and manufacture
of Intoxicating liquors.

The bankrupt stocks purchased by

ocean of merchandise is contained in
some $25,OOO.OO worth of goods when
purchased at bankrupt prices. The
entire basement under the big store
is being packed and jammed with dry
goods, notions, shoes, underwear, and
all the articles that go to make up a

it will be placed on sale at prices that
will prove a blessing to the people

Conference Adjourns.

The convention adjourned after
thanking Secretary Lane for calling
it and appointing committee of
three, Governors Spry of Utah, Am
mons of Colorado, and Oddie of New
ada, to present the resolutions adopt
ed in person to President Wilson.
Late Friday the Governors confer
ence urged the speedy settlement of
the remaining public lands of the
western states, with view OF COM
plete jurisdiction by every state of
all lands within its borders. The
governors declared that upon the adj
ministration of the laws governing
the disposal of the public lands in a
large measure depends the future
prosperity of our states, and that the
newer states, having been admitted in
express terms on an equal footing in
all respects whatever with the origin
al states, no realization of that condi-
ton can be attained until the states
jurisdiction shall extend to all their
territory, the taxing power to all their
lands, and their political power and in
fuence be therefore secured"
On the withdrawal of lands from
entry the resolutions stated;
THE permanent withdrawal OF any
lands within our states from entry
and sale, we believe to be contrary to
the spiTit and letter of the ordinance
of 1887, the policy of which was fol-
lowed for over century, and we urge
that such lands be returned to entry
and opened to sale as speedily as pos
sible."
The final act Of the delegates was
to adopt resolution of confidence II
Secretary Lane. The resolution
adopted by unanimous vote, follows
"Be it resolved, That on behalf o
the people of the arid west. we ex
tend to the Hon. Franklin K. Lane

Both Factions Recognized.

If anyone can tell who has the up
per hand in the distribution of the
federal Offices in Idaho he is a de-
ductor of rare subtlety and keen abil-
ity. Ex-senator Henry Heitfelt was
nominated Friday for register of the
Lewiston land office. This was vic
tory for Hawley, Dubois and Parky.
The same day John E. Williams Of
Twin Falls, was appointed register
and William E. Hews of Glenn's
Ferry receiver of the HALEY land Of
flee; and Chas. +. Harries of Mont
pelier receiver of the Blackfoot land
Office. These appointments were
made in response to the endorsements
of Nugent and Elder They are also
slap at Senator Dubois who favored
c. +, Moulden for the Blackfoot of
fee. To date honors are about even
i'm Idaho, and nobody is satisfied.
Only one thing stands out clear and
distinct and that is that President
Wilson intends using the patronage
club as long az possible By means OF
to bride and intimidate Congress TO
do about as pleases. Once the big
distribution is made President Wilson
will be as helpless as President as he
thought himself few years ago when
asking for a pension from Andrew
Carnegie. He does not propose to LEI
go of his club. The position occupied
by the President OF the United States
is neither dignifed nor edihying. II
