the anti-administration faction by a
vote of 93 to 83.
^ There followed debate over the
method of making nominations, and
this was finally settled by a proposition
from Mr. Brice to the effect that
since it was recognized that there
were two factions, divided by well defined
lines, and that each friction had
a full ticket, in order to save time, it
was just as well for both tickets to be
put in nomination as a whole and decide
the matter all at once. This was
v agreed to. The Conservative ticket
was designated as No. 1. and the Reformer
ticket sts No. 2. The vote
which was taken by ballot, and which
was practically the same as on the
lirst roll call, with the exception that
delegates whose names were on the
ticket, refrained from voting, resulted
in the election of ticket No. 1, 88
to 77.
The two tickets were as follows, the
first being nominated by Mr. W. M.
Dunlap, and the second by Mr. J. R.
Haile:
No. 1?G. L. Suggs. Bethel: J. L.

seeing that they were in the
minority, left the hall, and when the
vote was tak-jn between W. B. Wilson.
Jr.. and W. B. Byers for state executive
committeeman, the result was 89
f to 66 in favor of Mr. Wilson.
Mr. J. H. Foster offered a resolution
endorsing the candidacy of Mr.
M. C. Willis for adjutant and inspector
general, and Hon. D. E. Finley for
congress. Both resolutions were
adopted without opposition.
^ Mr. J. S. Price offered a resolution
endorsing the administration of President

without any formal motion.
LOCAL LACONICS
41 Will Speak a* Bethany.
Governor Blease has accepted an invWoHnri
to deliver an educational ad
dress at Bethany on the occasion of
the closing of the school on May 15.
Barn Burned.
The barn of Mr. W. H. Williams in
the Lesslie neighborhood was destroyed
by fire last Saturday at about noon.
The origin of the fire has not been ascertained.
More Schools to Close.
This week will mark the closing of
a number of York county schools,
among them being Tirzah, I-atta and
Hickory Grove. All the county schools
will suspend work before the end of
May.
Mr. S. H. White Stricken.
Mr. S. H. White of Rock Hill, a delegate
to the county convention, was
taken violently ill just before the convention
assembled yesterday. He suffered
two fainting spells, one on the
street and the other in the court
house. He was taken into Probate
Judge Williams' office where he revived
after a rest of an hour or two. and
was able to return to his home in Rock
Hill yesterday afternoon.
York Negro Paroled.
Governor Blease has paroled John
Hardin, alias "Peg Leg," alias "John
Do Not Pester," the negro who killed
Ben Walker, another negro, over a
gambling quarrel in Yorkville about
six vears aeo. Hardin was convicted
of murder with recommendation to
a mercy and sentenced to life imprisonment.
The governor reduced the sentence
to twenty years last January,
and the parole issued last week is conditional
on good behavior.
Holding Two Offices.
The Rock Hill Herald says that the
f supreme court is to pass tomorrow on
tile right of Mr. J. lJwyd Creighton of
Rock Hill, to hold two offices at one
and the same time. Mr. Creighton is
a school trustee and also an alderman.
There has been objection mainly for
political reasons, it is thought, and
Messers. Wilson & Wilson have taken
the matter to the supreme court. The
Constitution of the state seems to be
very clear in its prohibition of the
% holding of two offices at one and the
same time, and there has been much
bickering about the matter in the state
during a good many years; but the
supreme court has never expounded
the law.
SOUTH CAROLINA NEWS
? Governor Blease on last Friday

? Charleston special of May 2. to the
Greenville News: Mayor John P.
Grace and Mr. Robert Lathan, man|
aging editor of the News and Courier,
engaged in a fistic altercation in the
editorial offices of that newspaper
about one o'clock Saturday morning
with results damaging to both in a
greater or lesser degree. Partisans of
either side claim a decided victory, but
?l those who were eye witnesses of
the stirring combat are inclined to
the view that the fight was a draw.
The trouble began following a meeting
of the county Democratic executive
committee held in Hibernian hall
n Meeting street early in the evening.
Here factions took fistic sides
and Deputy Sheriff Leonard was arrested
by Chief of Police Cantwell,
while the deputy sheriff was attempting
to discharge a pistol which he had
drawn during the heat of the turmoil.
Ifc Thomas P. Lesesne, city editor of the
f News and Courier, and Mayor Grace
came to words in the hall shortly before
the fighting factions were dispersed
and it was understood that
blows were to follow when a crowd of
/./.mKatuntu <"imo in hutU'PPn liml ft*til.
porurily distracted attention to other
matters. Of what happened in the
News and Courier office later, about
an hour after midnight, the News and
Courier of Saturday morning has the
following account: "Following the
meeting of the county executive committee
last night at the close of which
there were disorders in the corridor
of the Hibernian hall, where the meeting
had been held, Mayor Grace accompanied
by Mr. \V. Turner Logan,
visited the editorial rooms of the News
and Courier about 2.30 o'clock this
morning. The mayor appeared to be
% in a great state of excitement. He began
by issuing threats to the city editor
in the event that reports of the
night's events were not written as he
thought they should be written. The
city editor told him that the only purpose
of the News and Courier was to
present reports of what happened.
While Mr. lA>gan was engaged in conversation
with the city editor. Mr.
Grace then entered into conversation
with one of the reporters for the pa
per. He began to abuse the News and
Courier in u loud voice. This attracted
the attention of the editor of the
News and Courier, Mr. Robert Lathan,
who was in his office. .Mr. Lathan
came out and asked .Mr. tlrace what
was the matter. Mr. Grace answered
that the paper had been printing reports
about hint that were not correct
and that it had to stop. Mr.
I^ithan told hint that if he had any
statement to make he could dictate it
and it would be printed. He said Inhad
no statement but began to abuse
the paper. Mr. I^ithau told him that
tin- News and Courier had always undertaken
to treat him with scrupulous
fairness. Mr. Grace answered with
an oath that this was not true. He
announced that he was tired of the
treatment to which he had been subjected
and that he did not propose to
tolerate it any longer. Mr. Iaithan
told him if he had no specific statement
for publication that he must discontinue
such language. He announced
again with an oath that he would
say what he pleased and talk as long
as he pleased. Mr. Latham then asked
him to leave the office. He refus4
ed and defied Mr. Lathan to put him
out. Mr. Latham told him that he had
no wish to employ force, but that he
could not talk as he was talking in
the News and Courier office, that he
must get out. Mayor Grace replied
that Mr. I^athan could not put him
nut and accompanied this statement
with an epithet which led immediately
to an altercation. Mayor Grace and
Mr. Lathan fought over the corridor
of the editorial rooms and into the editor's
office. A member of the editorial
staff, Mr. L. H. Wannamaker, Jr.,
undertook to sepurate the combatants.
Mr. Logan protested and seized Mr.
Wannamaker. Mr. l^athan got Mr.
Grace down and was punishing him.
Mr. Logan interferred. The two combatants
being again on their feet the
difficulty was renewed. Mr. Grace got
Mr. Lathan down and demanded to
know if the latter had enough.
? Washington, May 4: General Carranza
and the constitutionalists today
were practically eliminated from the
proceedings of the three South American
envoys who have undertaken to
solve the Mexican problem by diplomacy.
In a telegram to General Carranza,
the mediators announced that,
in viou- of his refusal to agree to an
armistice with General Huerta, they
withdrew their invitation to him to
send a personal representative to participate
in the mediation proceedings.
The mediators told the constitutionalist
leader that as long as he maintained
his present attitude they must decline
to treat with him. General Carranza
had inquired in a note to the
envoys what subjects a special representative
might be reouired to discuss,
pointing out that if the general problem
of pacifying Mexico were to be
approached he could not authorize any
one to participate in the negotiations.
He reiterated that he would consent to
mediation only on the incidents which
had brought a controversy "between
the United States and Mexico," holding
that he was the constitutionalists'
chosen leader to whom complaint
about the Insult at Tampico and other
offenses originally should have been
made. In their telegram tonight the
mediators quoted Carranza's last note
to them, adding that as long as he
maintained that attitude, they must
decline to receive a representative
from him as they could not separate
the incidents at Tampico and elsewhere.
which had brought about friction
between Mexico and the United
States from the general subject of
pacifying Mexico.

well, the stands being good in most

First National Bank
O. I/,
A Bank does not have to be the
largest to be the best.
The First National Bank of Sharon
is as large as It needs to be from the
standpoint of Capital Stock. If It
wanted more capital, there would be
no trouble about getting it.
What concerns Us Is to fill our field
and give the people of Sharon and the
?ountry surrounding as good banking
facilities as their needs require, and
that is what we are doing.
The way for people who are not now
doing business with us to help themselves
and the community generally Is
to open accounts Here.
We give good service and our main
ambition is to give better service.
Drop in and see us.
