within the law relating to deportation.
The order of Secretary Straus follows:
"To all commisisoners of immigration
and i mmigrant inspectors in
charge:
"It s hereby directed that, with r
view to promptly obtain definite information
with regard to alien Anarchists
and criminals located in the
United States, you shall confer fully
with the chief of police or the chief
of the secret service of the city r
which you are located, furnishing
such officials with detailed nform:
tion with regard to the meaning or
the term 'Anarchist,' as used in th
Immigration Act of February 20
1907, and with regard to the inhil ?
tion of the statute against aliens of
the criminal classes, explaining the
powers and limitations imposed by
said statute upon the immigration
officials with respect to such persons.
"You should call to the attention
of the chief of police or the chief of
Becret service the definition of the
term 'Anarchist* contained in Sections
2 and 3 contained in the Act of
February 20, 1907, and provision of
Section 2, placing within the excluded
classes 'persons who have
been convicted or admit having committed
a felony or other crime' or
misdemeanor involving moral turpitude,
'pointing out that if any such
person is found within the United
States within three years after landing
or entry there he is amenable
to deportation under the provisions
of Section 21 of said Act. The cooperation
of said chief of police
should be requested, making it clear
that in order that any particular
. Anarchist or criminal may be deported
evidence must be furnished
showing (1) that the person in question
is an alien subject to the Immigrant
Acts, (2) that he is an Anarchists
or criminal as defined in the
Statute, (3) the date of his arrival
in the United States, which must be
within three years of the date of his
arrest, (4) the name of the vessel or
the transportation line by which he
came if possible, and (5) the name
of the country whence he came: the
details with respect to the last three
Items being kept at the various ports
of entry in such a manner as to be
available if information is furnished
witk respect to the Anarchist's name,
the date of his arrival and the port
of entry.
"It is desired that the above indicated
steps shall be taken at once
and that no proper effort shall be
spared to secure and retain the cooperation
of the local police and detective
forces in an effort to rid the
country of alien Anarchists and criminals
falling within the provisions of
the statute relating to deportation."
THE USUAL CONTESTS.
Filed By Dantzler, Meyers and Prioleau
for the Fees.
March 24 is the day fixe for hearing
the contests filed for the seats of
Mess. Legare, Patterson and Lever
by the three negroes, who claim to
have been elected to congress. Aaron
P. Prioleau, who has been figuring
some in the prints of late, and who
once figured in jail for robbing the
mails, is contesting the seat of Legare.
Isaac Myers from somewhere
about Aiken, is contesting the seat
of Patterson, while A. D. Dantzler
contests Lever's seat. All three of
these negroes have contested before,
and, finding it profitable, have done
it again. They each get $2,000 allowed
by congress to any one who
files a contest. The wonder is that
there are not a dozen negroes every
time, instead of one in each district.
All they have to do is to get up and
run, then file a notice that they were
rightfully elected and cheated out of
s it. It is not necessary to get votes
at all. The election committee of
>. the house, which will hear the conS
testants, will have some fun out of
the negroes who appear before them
and then vote unanimously to throw
their cases away as being without
any justification. *

BENEATH GROUND.
In a British Columbia Gold Mlno.
When the manager or a gold mine
at Rossland offered to take us down
we accepted readily, and it was only
when we were invited to "step in''
that we thought of the light summer
suits which most of us were wearing.
We had left the boat at ^obson and
come on to tiossland to learn something
of that vast mineral wealth upon
which, with lumber and fisheries
and fruit growing, the commercial and
industrial future of British Columbia
is to be built. At the Centre Star tho
slant of the shaft is one of about 60
i *ofr!'PP5 and the body of the skip slopes
back to the rails upon which It falls
into the depths. Which means that
when the eight of us are pacned tightly
in the innocents who nave entered
first find themselves tilted on their
heels, their backs upon the cold, wet,
rusty iron, and held fast uy the overlying
strata of human avoirdupois
which fills the skip.
It was at the third floor window
that the man stood who heard the Optimist,
hurrying by on his long fall
from the roof of the twenty story
skyscraper, murmur to himself that it
was "All rigi?t 60 far," It is at about
that stage of his downward journey,
probably, that the man who deacenus
a mine for the first time begans to
take the cheerful view. His earlier
mind is complex, elusive and difficult
of analysis, but at any rate it is not
cheerful. Sudden blackest darkness;
the feeling of falling out of one's hair;
the whirling cabie that may snap;
the engine man who may lose control;
an upward glancing of the soul to all
Defending Powers; and then oblivion
?an oblivion cloven as it were, in
past the openings, one bidow the other,
of the dimly lit galleries at deeper
and deeper levels.. The skip slackens
speed, hovers hesitatingly for a
moment and then comes to a stand
and we step out.
"You'll want candles," say^ the
manager, and on the threshold of this

lly, as upon an altar. It is a world ol
gray. The walls before us and the
roof above, upheld by huge timbering,
are gray, relieved only at a nearer
view by the shimmer of the imprisoned
metals. The galleries that extend
to right and left, the cars wnich pass
us laden and the men who bend behind
them are gray as the ore which
they dump between the rails into a
chamber below. The electric lamps
which line the roofs of the galleries
burn gray, as* it seems, and the very
air is gray. On the mountain above
the sun is shining, and thank Goa
for the green world that one can look
upon thence.
"Ollabo'd!'' cries our guide. Obediently
we clamber into the little sqiare
trucks which have been brought up
in a row to carry us through the
mine. Each man lias his truck, rides
alone upon his own plank and lights
himself with his own particular candle.
In a moment we are in the gallery.
As we meet the sharp current of air
the hot wax gutters over onto our fingers
and we slant the candles back to
the horizontal.
At the end of a long gallery, where
a second shaft descends, we ciimb out,
penetrate a gloomy, narrow passage
In which heaps of ore lie waiting to
be trucked away, and croucmng enter
from below a little chamber, Bome 8
by 8 feet, blasted in the rock.
Here, where the air is still full of
tho odor of gelignite, is a driller at
work with his machine. We squeeze
ourselves flat and bend low against
the sloping walls and watch.
The heavy Iron arm shoots out and
In, striking the face of the rock full
square perhaps fifty times a minute,
every blow falling with the weight
of 1.000 pounds, twisting as it'etrikee
as if to bore through what it cannot
break away. The man behind the
drill turns on us an impaspive face.
No one speaks or would be heard 'or
the echoes of the thrust aDd thud and
the vibration of the machine. We
wonder that beneath such blows and
amid such din the sleeping masters ot
gray underworld should not awke
and bring the foundations down upon

At the bottom of the shatt we wait
while the men of the night shift flash
by lis, skip after skip, to .ueir work
in the lower depths, and then we
are drawn out of the void as we came.

reaffirming the Omaha platform
enunciated in 1892 and declaring for

listened to speeches of the
true Populist brand made by different
leaders, while the committee pre
pared a platform fiery enough for
the old-time Populists. After a debate
lasting two hours the convention
decided to respond to the call
to the national committee and to send

No Marine Industry in These Days
Brings Such Hazards?Daily Dur- (
ing the Sealing Season Hundreds j
of Men Risk the Dangerous Ice
Flows. |
There is a seal fishery which has ,
had a far longer existence than the
fur-seal fishery of the Pacific, and enJoys
greater vitality, and mat is tHe
hair-seal fishery of Newfoundland and 1
Labrador. No marine industry in (
these days brings such hazards to |
crews and ships as this one. Daily ,
during the sealing season hundreds of '
men risk their lives on the floes, and '
the vessels face arctic "nips" whicto <
often crush them. When the hunt opens,
stout steamers, built for this (
fishery and carrying 5,000 men, sail ,
from various ports in quest of mighty '
floes swept south from Greenland. '
Somewhere amid these the herds will
be found, the mothers having mounted
tne ice to drop their young, which
are cradled there, the parents fishing
in the adjacent waters for their subsistence.
The seal-ships must venture
amid the floes for their quarry,
and the seal-men must hunt these
"pinnipeds," as scientists call them
across the frozen wastes, subjected to
all the perils of such a pursuit, without
tents or other shelter, fire, or
the means of making any, and no
chance of retreat to their ships if a
blizzard besets them when they are j
far from the vessels, and often they
go six or eight miles across tne crystal
wastes in the excitement of the
hunt. 1
The crews always start off at day- ]
break and remain out till night. They
are clad in flannel underwear and canvas
outer garb, but carry no overcoats,
that they may travel tne easier, '
and take along only a little food, for '
the same reason. Hence, wnen bliz- i
azrds assail, they are ill provided to <
defy them, and if the storm is pro- (
longed, they cannot withstand the rigors
of a night on the floe, with its
benumbing cold and gnawing hunger. <
Never a year passes but some seal- i
ship will shelter ten or twelve hundred
men for a night or two, the
whole assemblage on the floes making
for the nearest steamer when storm
or fog threatens, lest they lose their
way In trying to reach their own and !
fall victims to the perils with which
they are engirt.
One of the most serious tragedies in
the annals of this industry befell the
crew of tie steamer Greenland on
March 29, 1898. Up off Labrador at
this time winter has by no means
spent its fury, and on this eventful
day, while her two hundred men were
scattered over the floes, a blinding
snowstorm began, with a startling
drop In the temperature, the vessel
was driven helplessly seaward, and
the hapless crew were lea to their
fate, no other ship being near and
they being far from land. When cue
tempest ended, after two days an'1
nights, it was found that forty-seven
had perished and sixty-three were severely
frostbitten, some so severely
as to be maimed for life. The story
of the sufferings of the wretched party
was appalling. A few years ag(
the steamer Huntsman was pennec
In o Ann rvfp flriH driven
against a rocky islet, where she weni
to pieces, forty-two men perishing
within an hour amid the contending
Ice, reefs, and fragments of the vessel.
The rest of the crew cros?ed the
floes to the land; but one man, named
French, had been left behind, unconscious.
As the ship struck, he was
flung against the rocks, having his
shoulder, two fingers and two ribs
broken and his head badly gashed.
But he was wedged in a crevice, ana
when consciousness returned he
crawled, with the aid of his uninjured
hand, to the top of the rock, where
he lay for forty-two hours drenchec'

Should Be Instructed.
Herman Ridder, editor of a New
fork paper, recently traveled
;hrough the South urging, so the
;he New Orleans Times-Democrat
>ays. the Democrats of this section
;o tee to it that Mr. Bryan is not
lominated at Denver. In an interview
with the Times-Demccrat Mr.
bidder says: "I am convinced that
Mr. Bryan can not carry a northern
;tate, and I would like to suggest to
>ur southern friends that they
should not instruct their delegates
"or Mr. Bryau, but that they should
?o to Denver uninstructed, so that
;he Democrats all over the country
nay consult and advise together in
-egard to the best man to put at the
lead of the ticket. Perhaps by
:hat time Mr. Bryan himself will
;ome to the conclusion that by his
public utterances he has made himsolf
iinnncciVild nnrl will n err ex* u.*irh
:he other Democrats in nominating
i winning ticket."
But why should the rank and file
)f democracy leave to their representatives
the duty of dping what
the rank and file should do? The
nen whom Mr. Ridder represents
tfould, according to the'Philadelphia
Press, be satisfied with "anybody
Dut Bryan." Why not'trust the
rank and file to say what the party's
:ourse shall be? So far as Mr. Bryin
is concerned he has not asked
md will not ask for the vote of any
man or of any state. He does say,
lowever, that it is the duty of DemDcrats
in precinct, county and state
invention to instruct their delegates
as to the choice for the DemDcratid
nominee.
The New Orleans Times-Democrat
puts it well when in referring to Mr.
Ridder's "no instruction plan" it
says: "We think that the will of the
sonstituencies can not be made too
plain. An uninstructed convention
would present bouudless possibilities
of chicane. No candidate should be
considered, unless his record will
stand the probe of popular scrutiny.
Under our primary system, we have
earned to judge candidates on their
merits and have forever foregone
the assistance of the middlemen who
used to pack conventions and thwart
the people's will. We once labored
under the delusion that United
States senators could not be choosen
without days and weeks of wrangling
in state legislatures. But, happily,
all that has been changed and
we can not see why the democracy's
standard-bearer should not be selected
in like fashion. Whatever is
done, let it be done, in the open.
The dark horses should be kept in

Democratic Opportunity.
r"We are not likely to have a
walkover in 1908, and this is not the
time for dissensions within the party
ranks."?Leslie M. Shaw.
The Washington Herald says this
obvious truth, uttered by the recent
secretary of the treasury, and refer
11 - j._ xi ui:.
ring especially to uk repuuucem situation
in Iowa, is equally applicable
to the country at large, Party lines
are broken everywyere. All wellfnformed
republicans like Mr. Shaw
keenly appreciare that no "walkover"
is in prospect for 1908.
Dissensions are the rule, not the
exception. A great party is working
at cross-purposes. It is at loggerheads
as to men, wide apart as
to measures; uncertain, undetermined.
and afraid.
It is as a house divided against
itself.
Six months before Harrison's ov
erwhelming defeat in 1892, possibly
Darty conditions were as bad as they
are today, but certainly no worse.
Rooseveltism is almost, if not
quite as strong as ever it was, in
spite of adverse material conditions;
but Rooseveltism, as everybody
knows, is not republicanism, and
the only republican who, apparently
can keep alive the whole of this
Rooseveltian sentiment?Roosevel t
himself?has eliminated himself
from the presidential equation.
Mr. Shaw puts it mildly enough
when he says "we are not likely to
have a walkover in 1908." Republicans
of somewhat less prominence
are saying, "We shall be lucky if we
escape defeat." They are fast coming
to believe, in fact, that but one
of their number?Hughes, of New
York?cen safely insure the party'
salvation, and Hughes, of New
York, strange to say, is not to be
permitted to have the nomination,
if the administration can prevent it.
Hence the clouds now hovering
over the g. o. p.
If the democratic party is really
lacking in optimism at this momentous
juncture, as it seems to be, we
can account for it only upon one of
two theories?either it does not read
the signs of the time aright, or made
sick at heart by hope long deferred,
its pessimism is become chronic.
And the most hopeless type of pessimist,
we may add, is that still too
ubiquitous democrat who obstinately
refuses to see in William Jennings
Bryan the man of the hour?the
democrat of all democrats to w hum iu

A SPLENDID SELECTION.
F. H. McMaster Is Elected State Insurance
Commissioner.
Mr. F. H. McMaster, of Columbia,
was elected insurance commissioner
Wednesday afternoon and will be the
first to hold the new position, which
carries a salary of $2,500 per year.
The office was created at the present
session of the General Assembly, and
by Act the commissioner is charged
with all duties pertaining to insurance
companies which now devolve
on the Comptroller General and other
State officials and with new duties
imposed by the Act.
Mr. McMaster is one of the best
known and most popular young men
in the State. He is a native of Fairfield
County, a graduate of South
Carolina College and holds a diploma
in law from that institution. He was
at one time in partnership with Senator
u Weston, at the Columbia
Bar, and later entered the newspaper
business in Columbia. As business
manager of the Charleston-Evening
Post he made an excellent record.
Several years ago he became circulation
manager of the State, in which
position he has also done good work.
He now holds this position.
Mr. McMaster during his residence
In Charleston represented that county
in the House of Representatives
and he has always taken an active
interest in public matters. He has
an intimate knowledge of insurance
matters, having been private secretary
to Mr. Edward L. Gernand, general
agent for the Mutual Life in
South Carolina at one time, and later
Mr. McMaster was special agent
for the Mutual Life. He is filly
competent to fill the position, both
by character and ability.
