(fty Associated Press.)
London. .Inly "I.? European diplo
macy Is fii- eil with a situation or ex
treme gravity in the controversy bo
tween Austria and Servie. Unless It
Is handled wllh great delicacy It is
not unMitoly thai the others will be
come in volved In war. An Austro-i
Hungarian ultimatum to Servin. !
couched in tone of almost unprece
dented . "verity and fastening'on the
Servian government and people re
sponsible for the assassination of
Archduke Francis Ferdinand and his!
wife at Sarayovo, has been presented
to Belgrade. It demands satisfaction
within 48 hours.
The almost .universal opinion In Mu; |
uropeuii uupiiais is mat the Servian j
government cannot comply with suca
humiliating terms as arc set forth in j
tho ultimatum, since compliance will
be tantamount to an admission of |
Servin's guilt.
Tho efforts of European diplomacy I
should the powers foil to avert the
threatened war, will be devoted to lo- j
callzing It. Montenegro has asserted
her readiness to r.upport Servia in the
event of an Austrian , attach. This
would certainly plunge the whole of
the Balkans into hostilities. Austria
counts on the neutrality of Germany
and Italy, but with the possibility of
Russian, in ter..*nt ion on* behalf of
SfflTvia, fiku^ria would run great
rir.ks? of-'-risings among her own great
1 Slav population.
A fact much commented upon by
tho' European newspapors 1b that Aus
trja has chosen a moment for the Is
sum?? of* hof 'ultimatum when Presi
dent Polncaire is abeeut from France
aliid two of the Balkan-. premiers .are
abroad.
___ /
? j I Servia Will Fight.
Vienna.'.July 24.?Austria's note, al
though the preemptory character of
the ultimatum and the brief time al
lowed to Servia to reply came ob u
surprise to the Australn public, the
government's action meets with uni
versal approval.
The relations between Austria and
. Sorvla were felt to have become in
tolearable. It was believed In Ser
via that the time was ripe for tho dis
j intcrgratlon of the Austro-Hungarian
Empire ano> that Austria would suf
fer running the risk of a European
war.. Hence ' the Servian Btatesmon
aspired to bring Bosnian and Aus
trian Slav provinces under the Ser
I vian rule.
Germans and Austrians have for
several years attributed the bad trade
in the monarchy and the crushing
taxation caused by the repeated mo
bilizations, to Servian hostilities and'
Intrigues and there Is a feeling of
relief, ' therefore, that matters there
fore have been brought to a head and
that Servia will be settled with once
and for all.
It is believed here that tho Servian
crown prince, who 1b now acting un
der the King's lllness'ls undor the in
fluence of the war party and will re
ject the ultimatum.
An Evasive Reply.
Belgrade. Servia, July 24.?Tho con
tents of the Austrp-Hungarian ulti
matum to Servia became known hero

port and caused a great sensation.
Tho cabinet ministers met today and
will convone again tomorrow morn
ing.' It Is expected that* they will de
cide to make an evasive reply to Aus
tria. _

war runt Russia abandoning Servis
to her fate. Russia, it'was stated was
in far better condition than when she
was In 1902. prior to tho Japan /so
war. ".''.-'' ' ..' .
It was tue ^general opinion of - the
ministers that a nation with 'tlourinh

rtet afford to pormlt tho humiliation

placer, the crop.i are 90 late that it will
be almost impossible for farmers to
make enough to pa^fur their fertiliz

Thir section will have its full quota
of candidates in the coining election.
We already have three for commis
sioncr and wo arc certainly sorry that
two of them will have to go down In
defeat for they are all capital fel
lows and would make good commis
sioners.

It Is a good thing.that the friends of

Wo dee that Smith is claiming all
tho farmer votes. He ought to come
to Plercetown for here 3? out of every
100 farinera ore for'Blease and this Is
uo fable.
We see from The Intelligencer that
some politicians are' urging a division
among the candidates as there was

Blease does not subtract one from his
fitness. One of the,,best officers An

feated two years ago because lt?
would not commit himself to Blease or
Jones and a better one will never be

An effort is being , made to get a

It Is reported that. A. W. Picken a,

MAKE APPEAL .
TO WITHDRAW
TOO MANY CANDIDATES IN
THE GOVERNOR'S
RACE
AIKEN HAS ACTED
That County Ask" For a Conven
tion To Eliminate Some of
the Candidate* f
Aikcn, July. 24.?The following call
lias boon issued by the Alken county
delegates to flie last state convention
with tlie object op concentrating the
in tl-Blease element for governor on
two or moro candidates. The move
ment has the support of the anti
IJIoase voters In this county.
To the antl-Blease democrats of
South Carolinn:
It appearing to be practiealry* the
undivided opinion of those citizens of
South Carolina who would redeem
I heir state from Mensis m and all it
represents to the injury of our lie
loved state that the political exigen
cies of tho present gubernatorial race
it:- well nfa the patriotic considera
tions. Imperatively demand the elim
ination of, at least, three or more of
Lite avowedly antl-Rlea3c candidates
of .the state may not he diastrously
divided against itself, thereby giving
to the opposition a clear and decided
advantage in. view of the fact that the
Blease faction has iiad the foresight
practically to center upon two men
tif pro-Bleaso proclivities.
And it further'Appearing, from the
outrpoksn expressions of that por
tion of the press of the state which
is known to oppose BlcascUm. with
out respect to the individual candi
dates of th,e various gubernatorial as
pirants as well as simitar expression
from leaders of anti-Blcasc senti
ment in all the counties of the state,
that there Is urgent need for defmiu:
action on the part of somebody at this
time in order that the patriotic sentl
aicnt of tho state, which stands in op
position to Bleasels'm may concen
trate upon ?pme one, two or three
candidates or at least more than the
number offered by the opposition who
will be acceptable to the antl-Blenso
sentiment of South Carolina, and it
further appearing that unless the
present number of antl-Blcaso guber
natorial candidates is reduced to a
practical working basis of not more
than two or possibly throe, the forces
will .have, in the coming primary an
advantage which no amount of pa
Itrotlsm can overcome, so long as
they are hopelessly divided/
We, the undersigned citizens of Ai
kcn county, and delegates.to the last
state democratic. ..^convention, repre
gen ting opr.county, ourselves,T ' JW*
others, do hereby take'the Initiative
in Inviting ?n? calling a cc'fereaco
of the antl-Blease forces of South
Carolina to moot In Columbia at noon
Friday, July 31st, for the purpose of
taking such action in the premises as
the situation seems to warrant, either
by way of requesting tho withdrawal
from tho present gubernatorial race
of three or. more of the avowedly
antl-Blease candidates or in' recom
mending the candidacy of ono or. more
Df such candidates and pledging pur
hearty support, and that of others
similarly minded to such candidate or
candidates.
It is suggested, and we so recom
mend,-that this conference, whose ac
tion shall be binding on all the anti
Bleaso delegates to tho last state
state democratic .convention, with the
iddttion of such delegates as may be
:hosen in mass meeting by the anti
Blcasc voters of those counties which
were not represented in the May con
tention.
It Is recommended and. urged fur
her, that the six antl-Blease candi
l?tie for governor be represented at
his conference in person and by one
rlend and supporter from, each" cou
rresBlonal district of the state, who
ihall have equal voice In, the.confer
irico with all others who respond to
his'call. This is suggested in a
plrlt of the utmost falrncps to each
>nd every candidate concerned and in
irdor that no. one 'of jheni may have
ay ground whatsoever " ' for Tearing
hat his interests may not be properly
ud fairly . represented and . because
ie, earnestly, and 'honestly consider, it
soenttal that the''-b'esti' " manhood of

ital situation without personal. parr
