Will Know After 8th ( t Columbia, June 7.?Considerable i interest attaches in South Carolina s k> the meeting of the republican na- j. fcional committee to be held in Washingfcon Wednesday of this week, at K^hich time the plans for the reorga- a lization of the republican party in ! this state and also in Georgia will .be g put into some sort of definite shape, {f and when the matter of the patron- | age and its dispenser will be finally | decided for the state. I It is practically asured that John | L. McLaurin will handle the patron- | age for South Carolina. This infor- j| matio'n was corroborated in Colum- E g bia today by prominent republican B leaders who have been in Washing- | ton lately. Joseph W. Tolbert, for- | mer leader of the "regular" r^pub- | can forces, is to be discarded as dis- | tributor of the "pie/' as is Henry | Lancoin jonnson ot lieorgia.1 xne ? plan now is to organize a party in G South Oarolina with white leaders E from among good people. Mr. Mc- jj Laurin, former senator, has been se- [j lected to handle the patronage. ' | It is not yet known what position |j Mr.*-McLaurin will take, when it {j comes to the making of appoint- [j ments. However, it is understood, j! that he wDl he awarded for his work E m directing the affairs the new poli-s 0 ticar organization by appointment to {! an important agricultural comn&-, {i sion in the national capital, wherff [j he can be of service to the farmers ? of the south. It is understood that he f * _ - _ I was offered the position of collector o of'internal revenue at Columbia hart [ that he did not care for this posi- [ tion.
