WELCOME TO THE BAPTISTS.

1t has been more than half cen
tury since NeWberry had the honor
Of entertaining the Baptist State con-
yertion. We have not been able to
get the exact date, but the best in
formation available is that it has been
something more than fifty years.
The convention was to have met
with the Newberry Baptists in 1885,
bat just before the date for the con-
ventiou the beloved pastor of the New
berry congregation, the Rev. Luther
Eroaddus, died. Greenville telegraph
ed that they would take the conYen-
tiou and the sessions were held in
that city. Again in 1900, the con-
veution was to he held here, but just
before the time Mrs. Wright, the wife
of the pastor, the Rev. G. A. Wright,
died, and Greenwood telegraphed they
would take the convention and it was
held that year in Greenwood.
NeWberry mas been signally honor
Cd by the convention in that of the
2S presidents who have presided over
the deliberations of the convention in
the century existence of the organiza-
aon two Of them were Newberry men.

All the people Of Newberry extend

MANNING WILL NOT SIGN THE
rWO-QUARTS-A-MONTH IL
OUOR BILL.

Columbia, April 11.-(SpeciaD-
"This law has made a distinct ad-
vance for prohibition by limiting the
amount of liquor used, and I deem
it best that it should stand" said
Governor Manning today in a state
ment in reference to the gallon-a-
month act enacted by the legislature
in 1'15. The governor states that
he will not sign the two-quarts-a-
month act at the present time.
It is understood that the governor
has conferred with prohibition lead
ers from various parts. of the State
in reference to this matter, and has
reached his decision after a careful
consideration of the subject from va
rious angles.
The Governors statement follows:
"The gallon-a-month law will stand
as the law regulating the Importation
of LIQUOR into South Carolina for per.
sonal use. This was the law enacted
by the legislature at the same time
as the referendum act ordering the
prohibition election, and was in force
when the election was held. This law
has made a distinct advance for pro-
hibition by limiting the amount OF
liquor used, and I deem it best that IL
should stand, unless something occurs
to change the situation. To retain
the gallon-a-month law is to keep
faith with the people, and in my
judgement, will 60 long way to pro-
mote temperance so long that it is rig
idly enforced.
~ shall continue to direct a Wig
erous enforcement. l will not, there
fore, at this time sign the two-quart-
a-month act, but will hold same in
allegiance pending any change in con-
ditions that may occur"

HOW FAR NORTH WILL THE
BOIL WEEVIL INVADE

A very careful investigation of the
ginning reports issued by the United
States Census Bureau shows that no
where north of parallel 33 1-2 north
latitude "a line running east and west
approximately through Atlanta, Ca,
Birmingham, Ala, and Paris, Texas
has any county suffered because OF
cotton production than occurred dur
ing adverse seasons before the Wee
vii came. If this hes been the case
in the humid, timbered areas of Ar
kansas and north Mississippi, it GER
tainly seems reasonable to expect
about the same results from the Wee
vii in all newly invaded sections north
of parallel 33 1-2,
it must be understood that what
has been said here does not apply to
a strip from rs to to 100 miles wide
along the Atlantic Seaboard, for eli
matte conditions along the South At
lantic Coastal Plain are considerably
modified by the influence of the ocean
Winter temperatures average higher
than in inland sections of the same
latitude and the summer rain is heav-
ier. These factors, of course, will
prove favorable to the boll'weevil and
its rayages will very probably be
more severe than will be the case in
land in the same latitude The Prog

PACIFIC COASTERS AGAINST
GAMES WITH CUBS
BY Mark Shields

J
Pres. Baum of the Pacific Coast
league, on his way home from the>
meeting of the minor league in New
Orleans, stopped off here for a con-
ference with Pres. Weeghman Of the
Cubs regarding the proposed train
- ing trip of the North Side club to
California next spring.
The tidings Baum imported might
have been better. He declared club
owners in his organization were
deadlocked on the proposition Of
playing exhibition games with major
league clubs and it was probable the
deadlock would continue.
Some of the club owners are point
ing to the record of last season, when
early interest in the pennant race
was stronger than for many years.
Gate receipts increased and the club
owners laid this to the fact that fans
had not been sUrfeited with exhibit
ton games. Their appetites for
baseball had not been duIled.
It is possible to circumVent the law
against exhibition games on the
coast by playing on neutral grounds
outside the fiYe-mile club limit. From
a practice standpoint that would be
satisfactory to Weeghman, but it
would make an awful hole in the /
receipts and the exhibition trip would
be a dead loss.
The attitude of the Pacific coasters
has not dampened the ardor of
Weeghman and his associates and
they still favor the west as training
camp. If the contract with Tampa
business men can be Cancelled It is
certain the team will go to CaIifor-
MIA in February.
A lack of exhibition games might |
beCa good thing for the North Siders.
Until last season the White Sox were
California visitors, and played in

 As the night wore on meagre de- tails of the anti-Hughes conference became known. Geo. W. Perkins of the Progressive convention, Senator Penrose of Pennsylvania, and num- Der of others met The spokesman for the Republican faction told MT. Perkins that. because of personal prejudices against Colonel Roosevelt held by many of the delegates chiefly on account of the colonel leaving the party, he could not under any circum stances gather more than 350 votes ir the Republican convention in which 495 votes is majority.
 Ms. Perkins told the Republican members of the conference that next to nominating Colonel Roosevelt he desired above all to prevent the nomi- nation of Justice Hughes. He assert ed that if Justice Hughes were nomi- hated Colonel Roosevelt would not support him and the Republican tick ct certainly would be defeated. He thought Mir.

AUSTRIAN LINE IS
 CRUMPLED BY RUSS
Avalanche Of Gun Fire Is IF. resistable, Driving leu
 tons Back Is Miles
(By Review Leased Wire.


 PETROGRAD, via London, June g. Five days of furious offensive by the forces of General Brussiloff has crumpled their opponents line from the Kovel-Sarny railroad line to Buko- wina, driving them back an average of fifteen miles.
 In the Lutsk sector the Russians appear to have completely broken through, turning the left flank of the Austrian armies and the right flank of the German forces and capturing Lutsk, the center of a number of radi- ating roads and railways. At several points the attacking Russians have crossed the Ikwa and Styr rivers, and farther south they are approaching the Stripa River.
 The victories are attributable large ly to the avalanche of gun fire. The operations began in the vicinity of Olyka where skirmishing has been frequent lately. Both sides appeared to have been feeling for weak spot in the opponents line. The Russian advance from this point, which is 25 miles from Lutsk, was accomplished in two and one half days. During the long period of inactivity the Austri- ans constructed strong Notifications in this section. The topography of the country also formed strong natur- al defenses.
 . Military observers regard the opera tion as an extraordinary brilliant achievement and emphasize the able leadership of General Brussiloff, who ~Nas ion and made record for prisoners, guns and munitions captured.
 Lutsk is an important link. strength ening the connection between the southwest region and the northern section. The possession of Lutsk is direct menace to Lemberg, upon which place the Austrians now are rnassing their forces.
