The sixtieth annual convention of

tended by nearly 1000 delegates who
came to participate in it's delibera-
tions and to make official reports of
the good work being accomplished
under its direction in their respec-
tive localities. ST. Paul received the
delegates and visitors with open
hearted hospitality and generous well
come and it's citizens did everything
possible to make the convention a
success. Ideal weather conditions
contributed to the comfort and enjoy
ment of all.
The formal opening of the conven-
ton took place at the headquarters in
the st. Paul Hotel on Sunday morn

Most Reverend Archbishop for his
kind words of greeting, and con

croWning achievement Of his episco
pal career. He referred to the Arch
bishop as one of the pioneers of the
Church in Minnesota, who had wit
messed the development OF what II
now the Province or st. Paul from
tsingle diocese containing a few hun
dred Catholics ministered to by one
or two priests, to its present condition
comprising nine fourishing dioceses
a Catholic population Of more thar
half a million and a body OF nearly
one thousand priests. He thanked
him for his words Of welcome no

name of the Supreme Pontiff,s whom
he represented and wished him mans
more years Of fruitful labor In thu
vineyard Of the Lord.

Thanks Farmers for Exhibits.

Editor Keowee Courier: Please al
low me space in your paper to thank
the farmers who assisted me in get
ting up county exhibit for the State
Fair. Although Oconee did not win
first place, ] feel sure there was as
much comment on the fruit exhibit
from OcOnee as any one thing at the
fair.
The people from all parts of the
State seemed to be surprised to know
that Oconee could grow such apples
as came from Dan Good, Walhalla;
G. c. Arve, Long Creek, and NJ. S.
Stribling and Mr.. Hopkins, OF Seneca.
Farmers, let's begin now to prepare
for the fair next year, in case Oconee
is called on TO make an exhibit, and
show the people Of this State what
there is in OCOnec. eff | had known
it sooner ! could have saved some
thing for the fair" was the remark
heard too often in getting up the ex-
hiDit. G. NJ. Barnett, County Agent.

pARTEE ARRESTED IN pICKENs.

(TOccOa Record. }

The grand jury Of Franklin county,
in session at Gainesville last week,
found true bill against Railroad
officer John Partee, OF this place. for
murder, and indicted Policeman We'll

AT the next session OF the f dnklin
Superior Court, unless a change Of
venue is granted, these officers will
be placed on trial for the killing OF
the Davis brothers in LavOnia on Sat

After the shooting Partee left La

ed later that he had gone to Pirknns,
s. G., and surrendered to the sheriff
Of that county, and asked protection.
Learning of his whereabouts Sheriff
Wansley, OF Franklin county, went to
Pickens and brought Partee to Ath-
ems, placing him in the Clark county
jail for safe keeping, as it was feared
friends Of the DaVises would do him
harm If taken to GAINESVILLE.
But little accurate information
can be learned Of the affair, or what
Mr.. Partees defense will be, and
probably very little will be known

Warrant for Former OcOneCan, Dep
uty Sheriff i'm GrccnvilIc for Years.

Grecnville, Nov. 6.-John Hun
singer, for four years deputy under
former Sheriff Poole and for more
than two years deputy under Sheriff
Rector, will be tried for Transporting
liquor.
The case grew out Of a SenSa Iional
automobile chase of some 80 miles
Wednesday night. Hunsinger IS said
to have been in an automobile with
Jim Burns and J. A. ChildS. TIL. Off
GERS who chased the alleged vioiators
OF the law were ReuLen GOsnell,
chief OF the rural police, and Deputy
Sheriff Capell. lIunsingor and Burns
are said to have jumped from the
fleeing car, but We're identified by
the two officers. The chase began
between Greer and Duncans and
wound in and around the country
roads. 1t is said that the three men,
for whom warrants were issued to-
day. had been to Union for a load of
liquor.
They threw a package out Of the
automobile and officers, upon search,
picked up eleven gallons on the side
Of the road. Another gallon jug was
broken. HunSinger, it is said, jump
ed before the LIQUOR was thrown out.
lIunsinger was released as deputy
sheriff some months ago OH the
grounds that he had become a candi-
date for sheriff.

Firm in Its Tone.

Washington, Nov. 7.-The United
States in its latest note to Great Bri-
tain, made public here o-day, cover
with American trade since the begin
ming Of the European war, declares
that the so-callcd blockade instituted
by the allies against enemy countries
on March is "ncncctiVc, illegal
and indcicnSlblc.' Notice is served
that the American government can
not submit to the Curtailmcnt Of it's
neutral rights" and it cannot with
complaCence suffer subOrdination Of
its rights and interests"
Ambassador Page, to whom the
note was sent by special messenger
for delivery to the London foreign
Office, was instructed by Secretary
Lansing that the United States
must Insist that the relations be-
tween it and his maiesty's govern
ment be governed not by a policy OF
eXpediency, but by those established
rules of international conduct to
which Great Britain in the past has
held the United States to account
when the latter nation was a bellig-
erent engaged in a struggle for ma
tiOnal existence"
Declaring the United States "un-
hesitatinGly assumes" the task Of
chamDiOning the integrity of neutral
American government will devote it's
energies to the task, exercising al
ways an impartial attitude.

That they are succeeding is beyond

fully against the Varsity in the game
at Morgantown, and the first team is
either breaking up the passes or in.

This sort of practice eliminates all,
the dope that Wesleyan would win the
state championship on the forward
pass.
Should there come a chance during
the Virginia Poly game the Noun.
taineers intend to use some new plays
and also will make an extra effort to
keep passes down to the minimum.
