EAGER TO PLEAD GUILTY.
Rush at Spartanburg Court.-Mes'
sage From Governor.

Spartanburg, Jan. S.-The super
visor of Spartanburg county yester-
day received the following message
from the governor: please wire me
number of convicts this day in your
charge"
During this term of general ses-
sions court there has been a grand
rush on the part of those under in
dictment, especially for violating the
dispensary laws, to the bar of justice
to enter pleas of guilty. Out of for
ty cases, according to Solicitor Hill,
more than thirty have entered such
pleas and others are to follow. This
fact has given rise to the general i'm
preston about the court house that
the last call for pardons is being
generally answered. 1t seems that
everybody wants to be convicted be-
fore the governor goes out of office,
on the 10Th of the present month,
and there are, therefore, only ten
days in which to get executive elem
eney, if any one is in need Of it.
In view of the situation the gov
ernor's message to the supervisor Gre
ated much speculation. Some inter
preted it as forecasting a general
amnesty upon his retirement, while
others suggested that he was simply
getting the records together to show
that he has not pardoned everybody,
but left large number to suffer the
penalties of the law.
In reply to the message Supervisor
Vernon wired the governor that Ill
convicts are serving time on the
county chain gangs, 25 of whom are
white and Sc negroes. Those con-
victed at the present term of court
are not included. A few others are
in Jail awaiting trial.

DISBANDS ALL THE MILITIA
ORDER GOES INTO EFFECT M
MEDIATELI.
Governor Says 800 Men Invilved
Reasons.

Columbia, Jan. 1.-THE organized
militia of South Carolina was dis
banded by an order signed at 2
o'clock today by the governor.
This order is effective Immediate
ly. approximately 5000 men are
involved, including 500 which the
governor had refused to muster out
of service upon orders received about
eight months ago from the chief of
the division of militia affairs at Gov
ernor's Island, New York.
The governor explained his action
in the order, stating that the existing
of differences between the secretary
of war and Adjutant General Moore,
on one side, and himself on the other,
prompted him to take this step.
These differences, said the chief ex-
ecutive, resulted in serious breaches
of discipline in the militia corps.
"The present governor of the State
of South Carolina is Of the opinion
that it would be unfair and unjust on
his part to turn over to his successor
in office the militia of South Carolina
in it's present condition." the order
read.

Not Much Concerned.

Washington, Jan. 11.-War de-
partment officials were not much con-
cerned today by news that the gov
ernor of South Carolina had disband-
ed the South Carolina militia. They
believed the incoming governor
speedily would order its reorganiza-
ton, to avoid as far as possible any
loss of money allotted by the nation
al government for the militias sup
port.
Under te law, to obtain any gov
ernment funds for the militias sup
port South Carolina must present for
inspection at least nine hundred arm
ed and uniformed drilled State SOL
diers. This is on the basis of at
least one hundred militiamen for a
representative in congress, including
the senators.
Because of South Carolina's alleg-
ed deficiency in the matter of equip
ment, failure to measure up to the
regular army standards and failure
to account satisfactorily for govern
ment supplies. the war department
nearly a year ago withdrew federal
financial support from the States
militia. After some spicy correspon-
dence between the secretary of war
and the governor regular army in
spection officer visited South Caro-
lima and made arrangements under
which the war department again be-
gan supplying limited amount OF
funds.
If the governors order disbanding
the militia becomes effective imme-
diately it is said at the department
that government appropriations will
be cut off automatically.

PARDONS THOSE PAROLED.
Blanket Order Restores Full Citizen
ship.

Columbia, Jan. 10.-A proc!ama-
ton signed yesterday by the COVER
nor grants full and free pardon to
more than 1000 former prisoners,
who have been paroled during the
past four years during good be-
havior." The blanket pardon will
restore citizenship. Since assuming
Office in 1911 the governor has ex-
tended clemency in 1871 cases.
The following proclamation was
addressed by the governor to all
judges, sheriffs, constables and other
officers of justice in the State:
"Whereas, l, by virtue of the
power and authority vested In me by
the constitution and laws of the
State of South Carolina, have here
tofore granted certain paroles to GER
tain persons, at various and divers
times during the years 1911, 1912,
1918 and 1914, upon the condition
during good behavior as will be
fully shown by reference to the rec
ords in the Office of the governor of
the State of South Carolina and in
the Office of the secretary of State of
the State of South Carolina, which
said records will specifically give and
show the name or names Of the per-
son or persons so paroled, the county
in which he, she or they were con-
victed, the term CT court, the presid-
ing judge thereof, the name or names
of said person or persons, of what
offense convicted and to what term
sentenced. ;. in each and every individ-
ual case;
"Now know We, that for divers
good causes and considerations me
hereunto moving, have thought fit
to pardon and by these presents do
grant a pardon to each and every
person or persons so paroled by me
during my terms of office as the gov
ernor of the State of South Carolina
during the years 1911, 1912, 1913
1914.
This pardon is intended to apply
and is granted only to such person
or persons whose parole or paroles
contained the one condition, during
good BEHAVIOR and does not, nor is
is intended to, grant full pardon to
any person or persons who have been
paroled under any other condition or
conditions"

FIND BABY UNHURT.
Last Member Of Lake City Family to,
Be Rescued.

Lake City, Jan. Last night
about o'clock a very destructive
cyclone visited the Gaskins neigh
borhood, about six miles east Of this
place. blowing down outhouses, trees
and the like. The most serious dam
age reported was to J. c. Lawrence's S
new house, which he was erecting
Just in front of the. one in which he
was living. When they heard the
roaring of the wind Mr.. Lawrence and
the contractor who was doing the
work for him stepped on the front
porch to see what it was, and about
this time the frame of the new house
was blown over on to the old house,
breaking it down upon the family.
Almost a Bad Fire.
Mr.. Lawrence and Mr.. Hazeldon,
the contractor. after about thirty
minutes extricated themselves from
the timbers and at once began the
work of rescuing the other members
of the family, and at the same time
preventing the spread of the fire,
which had caught some of the tim
bers which fell near to the fireplace,
in which there was large fire. The
wreck was so great that it required
almost three hours, with the assist
ance of the neighbors, to remove the
broken timbers and rescue all of the
family.
Baby Taken From Ruins.
The last one to be rescued was a
baby about one year old, which was
found in bed with one of the joists
Just across its chest. yet there was
not a scratch on its body, and except
for the cold it appeared not to have
suffered from the storm. For dis
tance of three miles the trees and all
small houses were blown down and
the damage is yariously estimated,
but it will be found to be consider
able amount, especially when the loss
in timber is considered.

BAR MIXED MARRIAGES.
Prohibit IntermaIriage Of Whites and
Blacks in Capital.

Washington, Jan. 11.-A bill to
prohibit intermarriage of whites and
negroes in the District of Columbia
was passed by the house today, 23O
to 60.
Vigorous debate preceded the
vote. Representative Clark, OF
Florida, author of the bill, declared
intermarriage worked harm to both
races. Republican Leader Mann and
Representative Madden, Of Illinois,
opposed the measure. Mr.. Madden
said it would "leave many young girls
at the mercy of brutes willing to take
advantage Of them and then leave
them to a life of shame "

REPORTS ON WAREHOUSES;.
McLaurin Tells of Organization ant
Prospects of State System.

Columbia, Jan. 11.-Reports on
the South Carolina cotton warehouse
system, the first to be organized IN
the South, has been issued by John
L. McLaurin, commissioner. The
general assembly at the special ses-
sion held last October appropriated
$4,000 for the expenses of the sys-
tenn and the report by the commits
sioner shows that $4,000 has been
expended, including all bills payable.
There are now % warehouses un-
der the system with aggregate capa-
city of $4,000 bales. A supplemental
report is to be filed later as to the
amount of cotton on hand, rates of
insurance and every item of financial
transactions.
The commissioner says that State
cotton warehouse system should pro-
vide as follows:
Cheap storage, with low interest
rate. so as to encourage the gradual
marketing of the crop.
Reducing the cost of marketing by
bringing farmer and spinner into di-
rect contact, eliminating middlemen's S
profits, to the advantage of the pro-
ducer and the manufacturer.
Transforming cotton into negoti-
able security that will pass current
in the money markets Of the world
and afford as acceptable collateral
for use under the agricultural section
of the currency act.
The commissioner says that the last
named has been accomplished, but
that with an appropriation of S13,-
O00he has not been able to build and
equip warehouses as required. He
says that no authority is provided
under the warehouse act to the COM
missioner to aid persons with cotton
on storage to negotiate loans, nor is
there any authority to make sales of
cotton to either domestic or foreign
spinners.

The use of explosives in safe crack
ing should be made capital crime.
There is no difference between blow
ing up safe with dynamite or nitro
glycerine and arson, which is pun
ishable with the maximum sentence.
There is Just as much danger in an
explosion as in fire, and capital
punishment would go far toward
eliminating safe blowing.

Bamberg is badly in need of an
ice plant. Every summer the people
of the city have this fact impressed
most forcibly upon them. 1t seems
as if some local investor could make
an excellent investment by the erec-

sibly some of the local concerns could
easily add the necessary machinery
for this purpose.
