debate, and the Senator had acceded
to them. The Senator then took The
State’s stenographic report of the
speeches, stating it to be absolutely
correct, and showed that, according
to it, Stokes had done him grave in
justice, which he requested him to
correct in The State, so that its read
ers, who had been informed of his ed
itorial, might see his reply,
“I note,” hesaid, “that you predi
cate your editorial upon the report in
the News and Courier. This report
was not a stenographic report and
did not purport to be such, but it is
not amenable to the construction you
put upon it. The issue is between
yourself and myself, and I will he

County, the president of which is a
relative or connection of Stokes, Sen
ator Butler wrote lu substance as fol

the president:

Experiments at Midland, Texas,
Brought to a Close.
Midland, Tex., Aug. 30.—The par
ty of scientists who, under the direc
tion of Gen. R. G. Dyrenforth, came
to this place about three weeks ago to
try to produce rain by a series of pow-
srful explosions, have virtually com
pleted their experiments in this part
of the country, having had every fa
cility afforded them through the libe
ral spirit of Nelson Morris. On the
whole the experiments have been
successful, but owing to the many un
favorable conditions the work has
been greatly delayed and hampered.
Gen. Dyrenforth chose this particu
lar place because he was assured that
it seldom rained here at all, and that
there had been no real good rain for
over three years. At rare intervals
there had been showers, but they
were too few and far between and too
small. When they came they did
not do the country much good. Ow
ing to the dryness of the weather there
are few or no farms in this section,
the prairie being given up entirely to
cattle. The grass needs rain badly
for these, and the cattlemen were ex
tremely anxious that the rainmakers
should try their skill on the lower
edge of the staked plains.
Last night the last of the experi
ments here were conducted. The
night was clear and not a cloud could
be seen. The heavens were bespan
gled with stars, and from all indica
tions it was safe to predict that no
rain would fall within forty-eight
hours at (he least. A strong gale was
blowing toward the west. Five bal
loons were sent up and exploded and
200 pounds of rack-a-rock powder and
150 pounds of dynamite were set off
on the grounds. There was, of course
no immediate result. The
ter was rising, and the needle was
nf frlrO "Rtr
propiiate tribunal than the conven
tion. Col. Livingston was a candi
date for re-election, and it was fair to
presume that the convention was
interested iu knowing whether he
was a fit man for president. It is
probable that Gov. Northen took I hut
view of the matter. He was mistak
en. The convention, it is believed,
did not intend to credit any charge
the governor might make against Col.
Livingston, and therefore refused to
hear what he or his representatives
had to say.
It is probable, therefore, that the
Tillmans and Senator Butler are
wastiug their time in attacking Ma-
cuneand other alliance leaders. And
some of these leaders are undoubtedly
trying to lead the alliance into the
third party.
If Mr. Polk, the president of the na
tional alliance, is offered the presi
dency of that party it is safe to pre
dict that he will accept it. Much
that he has said recently justifies such
a prediction. And if he cannot get
the nomination he will keep out of
the Independent party and continue
to anuouuce that lie is a Democrat.
The Tillmans and Senator Butler,
however, are doing a good work.
They are arousing the democrats of
their State to the necessity for action.
If an attempt is made to force the
Democratic party to indorse the sub
treasury scheme it would be resisted,
or if the so-called third party seeks to
get a foothold in South Carolina It
would not be as warmly welcomed as
it would have been had the fight in
which the Tillmans and Senator But
ler are now engaged not been made.
