SOUTH CAROLINA NEWS. For Mcl.anrin Only. Bennettsville special to The News and Courier: The published session of the "political summer school" for this county has been withdrawn, as the farmers are too busy trying to pay their debts to attend political meetings. Very few would have attended anyway, unless McLaurin would have announced in advance that he would have been present. c State Librarian. Columbia special to the Greenville News: The governor has appointed Lavinia Laborde state librarian. The n successful candidate has been a stenographer in the governor's office. She is an orphan and the main stay of a family of ten children and is well educated. She is the granddaughter of Maximitan Laborde. The Army and Na\y. s Columbia Record, Monday: The army . recruiting station in the Kendall building closed today and the officers in charge a:parted for Charlotte, where another station will be opened. Just as they left a naval recruiting station was opened at Owings's drug store. t The same officers who were in charge ^ of the station here last summer are v here again. They will be here for a c week or more, and no doubt they will rj receive more applicants than they can t accept, but every one who wants experience in Uncle Sam's navy is invited v to come forward. Last summer, with s a week's work, 38 men were enlisted. r They were sent to fort Royal, where t they have been in "training" before assignment to definite places on war _ ships. One of the recruits accepted is back with the officers, ready to assist others who may want to enlist. Jonen For Governor. August Kohn's letter to News and Courier: Strong pressure is being brought to bear on Colonel Wilie Jones p to make the race for governor of this ^ state. He has received a great many t letters and appeals, urging that he con- i! sent to make the race for governor. Colonel Jones has been regarded as one s of the strong candidates for the Unltea v States senate; but he is not so certain that he can make the race because of f his very large business interests in Co- t lumbia, and even if elected to the sen-, c ate it would be of no pecuniary advan- ^ tage to him if he had to sever his busi- t ness connections nere. Colonel Jones is f very mucn more of a business man *' than he is a politician, and if he has to enter a mud-slinging contest for either place he would not think of bothering with it; but he may decide to go into a contest in which, if successful, ue would not have to leave his home, nor would his business interests have to be entirely given up. It is a long time yet, however, before the list of entries for any _ of the contests will be closed and very much can happen in politics in the meanwhile. In the Home of HI* Friend*. Greenville special of September 27, to the Charlotte Observer: Senator Mc- "j Laurin attended the annual stock show J at Fairview in the lower part of Green- t ville county today and was tendered a C flattering ovation. Although asked on t all sides for a speech, the senator de- h clined even to make an after dinner d talk, saying that he had merely come ' down to see the exhibition and not to _ make a political speech. Soon after his . arrival the men began coming up to ' shake hands with the senator, and before the day was over fully 1,500 men . had shaken the senator's hand. After dinner the crowd that gathered .. around to converse with him attained 1 such proportions that the senator retir- ^ ed to the grand stand in order that the * events might be recommenced. Hun- * dreds heard the senator converse who * ?* ?j.??i a mm t were HOI limuuuicu. X licit n?v T,vv? people present. J b Jadxe Duchanan to Retire. |q Sumter Item: The rumors to the ef- v feet that Judge O. W. Buchanan would not be a candidate for reelection as a judge of the Third judicial circuit at the approaching session of the general assembly, has been confirmed and he will retire from the bench at the expira- ~ tion of L.s present term in December, 1902. In reference to his determination not to seek reelection, Judge Buchanan says: "I have made up my mind to that f effect. Many reasons have moved me " tp this conclusion. I have observed the helplessness of circuit judges upon their retirement from the bench after serv- "] ing three or four terms. I am now in J my 43d year. If reelected, as I am as- i< sured I would be were I to offer for re- t election at tne end of the next term I t would be beyond 47 years of age, and t with nothing saved. To leave the u bench at that time or a later time I it could not in the nature of things com- p mence a professional career with any g hope of success, for my energy and in- j< dustry would then be gone even if I 5 nad the inclination to work. This is my c time to quit. The public has a wonder- p fully exaggerated iuea about the income f of a circuit judge. They know nothing $ of the outgoes and various demands j upon him by reason of his official nosi- y tion." I MERE-MEN'TION. Artnur Goebel, brother of the murdered Kentucky governor, is still trying to induce the governor of Indiana to honor a reauisition for W. S. Taylor and Chas. Finley, charged with com- F| plicity Thirteen men were drowned J in a ravine in Presidio county, Texas, last Friday, by a sudden rush of water, caused by a cloudburst It is reported that General Kitchener is talking of resigning his command in South Africa because he is not properly sus- tained by the home government The rice planters on the lower Savannah t have sustained heavy damage because of recent freshets Taking a lesson a from toe result of American operations in Havana, the authorities at Vera a Cruz. Mexico, are arranging to banish yellow fever from that port by improv- v ed drainage arrangements The attorney general of Texas has begun proceedings against three hundred corpor- i ations in t.,at state for refusing to an- , Htver certain questions required by the anti-trust law. s " The Schley Investigation.?'The proceedings of the Schley court of in- a quiry continue to drag along in tedious detail, developing a great deal of feeling against Schley, but little to show a any culpable disobedience on the part of the admiral in the Santiago campaign. One of the charges against t Schley was failure to obey orders direct i from the navy department and ne has , produced an order from Sampson advising him to disregard the depart- 11 ment's instructions. There is evidence i in the testimony that Schley is dislik- a ed by a majority of his fellow officers, , but nothing yet to show any serious neglect of duty or important shortcoming on his part. .. ?he Qorlwille (Cotton gflarhct.
