"BEARD NEES SPOOKS."
Abbeville Paper Replies to Sinbad's
Article.
Press and Banner.
In a lengthy article that appeared
in the Anderson Daily Intelligencer
of the 16th instant, W. P. Board In
dulges bi solvi? predictions based on
his extensive travel through tho
State, anent tho cooring contest for
a seat in tho United Sltates Soneto.
As might be expected his forecasts
all point to the triumph of Bicasc
and Mclaurin. He is known to be
BO zealous in behalf of both those
gentlemen that the facta". ..ie makes
lt necessary to take his utterances
with a grain of Bait, rock salt, in
grains not smaller than it ia quarried
front the mines.
Mr.'Beard does not travel over thc
State extensively, and it mi* '.t al
most be said continously and no one
peed write him down as an Incompe
tent when it conte3 to nowsgathering,
but being a known pnrtlzan would
he likely h>wr both sides of partisan'
politics or if he occasionally heard
something adverse to his^views, would
be likely remember to make it pub
lic.
But this is not tho feature of Mr.
Beard's article to which the Press
and Banner would enter, demurrer,
as the lawyers say. Senator Smith
may bc holding his own against Gov.
Blease or Gov. Blease may be not
only holding his own but actually
breaking Into the Smith camp, TH cs o
are matters of speculation puro and,
Blmple, and can be determined only
by th A primary. The question ia:
Why has Mr. Beard on vague rumor
proclaimed a possible frame up be
tween the a?rerai candidates 'for
Marshal, in the event that action
should be delayed on the appointment
of Marshal, or rather Marshals, un
til after the election? Granting for
sake of argument that Senator Smith
would gain-little by having four men
all the while on the 'anxious bench
with disquieting rumors afloat that
the other fellow* bad.-the* pTomlsc, ot
the plum, does Mr. Beard believe rbr
one monument that ?any one.jo^ ,the
several candidates would enter lato
a comlhmation with his' opponents?
Tho candidates may become sick or
political torpor, but ibo? will, not de
liberately cuw?n5t political suicide.
What could they possibly gora . by
Buch a course? All of tbam are con-,
9tt*Trtloira!!yi< ?ntl Blease. except
Sheriff Lyon, and. it ia well known
tact that whatever, he might do he
will not support Governor Blease. If
all four men should turn on Senator
Smith they would be discredited''at
the outset on the ground of disap
pointment.
The Presa and Banner can not
speak .with any degree of certainty
of what the friends ot the other can
didates aro saying, but it ventured
the ascentdon that no such statsnents
is be attributes to'friends of Mr.
Lyon were from responsible persons
>r persons authorized in any unmber
to apeak for Mr. Lyon. The feet ia
Mir. Beard knows that Mr. Lyon is op- j
m and fearless In maintaining a posi-,
Lion, once he has taken his ste^u, he
?nows that Mr. Lyon is in close touch
.vita the forces of Blease, and reading
tetwen the lines of MT. Beard's arti-j
:le, lt is pretty evident that his pur- j
Toses waa to queer Lyon toward
smith if he could not drive him to
ruppert Mclaurin and Blease. {
As -en Sen. Tillman's "leaky bar
?el by way of Spartanburg," referred
o by ' Mfr. Beard as the probable
lource of the Information that no
ippolntment ot Marshals will be made
inti! after the election, In the interest
>f Senator Smith, it ia tolly to sup
pose chat Senator smith believes this
>lan to be for hie best interest, sod
t la stIH greater folly tb suppose
hat Senator Tillman would lend him
?If to a scheme to ?withhold these fat
Coderai plums from the Democrats,
vhen Cte way ls absolutely open for

Tegucigalpa, Honduras, Jan. 21.
An extensivo program tending toward
the unifaction ot interests ot the
Central American republics was
dealt with by the annual Central
American republics conference which
waa held herc wow t ear s nay unter
terms of a treaty signed at Washing
ton, Dec. 20, 1907.
The most important point of the
program was a proposal from Nica
ragua that the conference insist that
those governments which had not yot
done so, approve agreement for free
commerce between the Central
American governemnt reached at a
former conference.
Another suggestion was that Central
American tfovernUients should put
into practice the agreements which
the confo-ence already havo reached.
These agreements were chiefly as
ti uniform systems for money weigh
and measures, customs, coromcc and

VELOCITY OF LIGHT.
.
Roomer's Early Calculations Have
Stood the Test of Time.
The first astronomer to demonstrate
satisfactorily the speed of light was
Ole R?eme?, a Scandinavian scientist,
who read his immortal poper on this
subject before the Academy at Paris
July 22, 1G7S. Roomer's calculations
and conclusions have stood the test
bf time and subsequent investigations
on all important pointa.
. Knowledge as to the velocity of
light was of tremendous importance, to. I
1 astronomical science, since it enabled7: j
astronomers to estimate accurately the j
enormous distances .with which their
science deals. Roemcr fonnd that light !
traveled st the rate of 180,000 miles in -
n second. The ann. being distant from ' r
the earth 02,000,000 miles, flashes light
to us In eight minutes and fourteen

Yet the sun ia s near neighbor com
pared with the so called fixed atara,
which lo reality "move with Inconceiv
able velocity, although tko moat pow
erful telescope? Till not show that I
velocity aa anything bot rest. Beyond j
the outskirts of our Insignificant solar
system are other systems, and beyond
them still others, so far.as the sight of
i man. aided by Instrumenta, may bridge
the ghastly chasm of the Infinite.
Distances beside which the Immense ?
line stretching from earth to aun ia sn
Invisible point are now measured by j
means of Roomer a special discovery ss

f Tho Stono of Infamy*
In many Italian cities there formerly
existed what was called "pietra d'ln
fomte." or a stone, of infamy for-the
punishment of bankrupts. In Venice r
one stands uear tho Church of St {
Mark, and lu Vero rm and Florence i
they are near the old markets. On a
day In carnival week the old time
custom was to have all traders who
had become bankrupt In the preceding
twelve months led to the atone, and
one by one each stood on Its center to
hear the reading of a report of bia
business failure and to endure the re
proaches heaped on him by bis credi
tors. At the -end of s certain time
each bankrupt was partly undressed. I
and.three officers took hold' of his'
shoulders and three others of bia 1
knees sud, raising bim as blgh as they
could, bumped bira on the stone delib
erately twelve times 'In honor of the
twelve apostles," the creditors crowing
like cocks while the bumping pro
ceeded.
