. CITRO
For Railroad Commissioner.
When 6een today Prank W. Shealy,
the popular and efficient clerk of
court of Lexington county, said: "I
am in the race for railroad commissioner.
I only decided to become a
candidate after canvasing the situation
thoroughly with my friends who
| have interested themeeivesm my be-?
half. At this time I have no claims or
i prophesies to make concerning the
1 onteome of the campaign. I can only J
say that I haye had ma y assurances
of support from all parts of the State,
aDd that I expect to make a clean and
vigorous campaign for the office. I
am not prepared at this time to announce
my platform, but hope to be
able to do so at an early date. I will
say. however, that I shall advocate
only such principles as I believe to be
for the best interests ot the whole peo-'
pie of South Carolina." '
Mr. Shealy was county treasurer for
a number of years and is now serving
his second term as clerk of the court.
He has never been defeated for any
office to which he aspired, and it goes
' without saying thajt he will receive an

fatter having died when he was- 1 at a

thereafter forced to the position of assuming

of the head of the family. $>. Lwitfcl
standing this handicap, he has worked
himself up to his present position.
Mr. Shealy is a man of practical
railroad experience, having worked on
a section for a number of years when
but a mere boy. Although he has had.
no connection with any railroad for
twenty odd years, he gained quite a
I valuable experience while he was so
employed, which will doubtless prove
a great beucfit to the people of South
Carolina should he be elected railroad
commissioner.
The Horse Show.
The horse show closed in Columbia I
last week, winding up with a grand
ball at the Jefferson Hotel, which was j
highly enjoyed by all present. The I
show was a succes1 as to horses and J
exhibition but the attendance was
small. The management, however,
deserve much credit for the first show,
which in the future will be greatly improved.
We notice among the exhibitors, Mr.
J. Henry Bodie, of Leeswlle, one of j
our progressive young men and a dear
lover of fine horses. He had his fine j
horse exhibited in class 14, wno made j
such a creditable showing thai, n re- !
ceived much praise and a prem urn of j
$75.00.
Mr. Eugene Hook, of New Kuokland
also received a tremiam of $2j.C0

Negotiations of Peace Now
y Under Way.
Washington, April 28.?The Mexican
crisis now is centering on the
issne between those who are seeking,
through the good offices and intermediation
of Latin-America, to find
some middle gronnd for pacific adjustment,
and those regard a resort to
arms asan inevitable consequence of
what has occurred
Throughout to-day two distinct
branches of activity were manifest
here?that of the envoys of Argentina,
Brazil and Chile, in formulating a plan
of adjustment to be submitted to the
United States and the Hnerta regime,
and that of the military and naval
forces of the United States, which
continue to go forward steadily in
preparation for any eventuality which
may develop.
The arrival of Qen. Fnnston and a
brigade of five thonsand troops at
Vera Ornz was one of the notable
military developments of the day.

To Guard Imperial Valley.
Calexico, Cal., April 24 ?Four companies
of the seventh regiment, California
National Guard, arrived today
and nitched camp. The soldiers' ar
rival created a feeling of relief in the
Imperial valley, where fears had been
enchanted by the knowledge that the
Idexican federal garrison at Mexicali,
just across the line, had been putliDg
up breastworks.
The Ideal

ideal place to go and enjoy beautiful !
life-like moving pictures, represent- |
