Kver > thing passed otl* smoothly and ipiietly, much wire-pulling was done by; candidates in and around the con ivention in a ?piiet way, and those i issues supposed to be most pro-1 iductivo of discussion created none j whatever. Senator Tillman introduced most appropriate resolutions j as to the memory of the late Gen. Wade Hampton, and suitable res-! olalions as to the illness of Chief Justice Alclver were presented and adopted. Absolutely the only subjects! | brought up in the convention, ( ; productive of discussion, were matters relating to the troubles of labor and capital, and the convention expressed itself in no mild way both in regard to the Isekout of the operatives of the cotton mills of the Horse Creek district, and as to child labor in cotton mill*.es over both those matter^, but those wishing to condemn the mill managements for the lockout and those trying to abolish child labor w< 11 by decisivo votes.

Iloth reports went through without ;i word of debute, and then cm re tho final adjournment with the suddenness of a thunderclap from a clear sky. The only change in the pledge is that candidates for the I S. senate and tho I'.S. house of rep resentativos will have to .pledge themselves to support the party plutform. The two-ling campaign circus plan was adopted, the executive j conunitteo being instructed to arr ange for a double series of camp ftign meetings in each county. The convention unanimously 1 and without debate adopted a simple resolution condemning Senator McLaurin's course. No one seemed to take any interest whatovorin the matter. After the convention bid adj-j ourued Senator Tillman was called for and he responded with a vigorous speech, in which he dis-j ployed much of his old time tiro | and energy, dealing with matter* of national party policy, and with the courso of events in congress. He was most vigorously appended. AN OBJECT LESSON. The personnel of the body and the character of the members showed plainly that tilings are running very harmoniously in the Democratic party in South Caro liua just now.

(TANM HATES IN EVIDENCE One of tlu* most striking fen" Itu es of the convention yesterday was the fact that practically every candidate for an important ollice was a member of the convention. It was truly a politicul convention, and the amount of hand-shaking and fence-building was astonish ing to some.

The senate committee has cut Iho Florence appropriation from $120,000 to $90,000, raised that of Georgetown from $40,000 to $60,000, struck out tho provision requiring Rock Hill to furnish a site for hor building, which is to cost $35,000, and left the $60,000 carried in the houso bill for Spartanburg unchanged. The reduction of tho Florence item is inexplicable and a surprise to the delegation who unite with Representative Scarborough in tho effort to have the tnufcroes restore the original appropriation of $100,000.
