TIME FIXED FOR CONVENTION Democratic Executive Committee; Holds its Meeting?Clubs and Counties Called. Columbia 'State, lSlli. The iState democratic executive committee ait the mooting last night fixed Hie time for holding the State convention for May 20, (he county conventions for May 4, and the precinct clubs for April 25. This was the main reason for the meeting, although one or two other resolutions introduced were discussed. At the precinct or club meetings delegates will bo elected to the county conventions and when the County conventions are assembled delegates to itlie State convention will be elected, each eountv , being entitled to twice Ihe numibor of! represent!!lives in the general assembly. There was a very full attendance when rlie mealing was called to order and as soon as the dates for the convent ion were fixed Mr. Cole L. Blcase brought up a resolution recommending to the convention the change in the constitution! of the party si that the first primary might be held on the third Saturday in August instead of the foiuith Tuesday as at present. Mr. Blcase stated that he had heard of a number of case.where mail operatives were not allowed to get off on Tuesday i?i order to vote and it was customary in Mic mills -to give the operatives a half holiday on .Saturday. This applied particularly to Kichlatul county, lie said. The resolution was opposed on tiie :.'i:>und that at would delay the returns. It we* finally tabled. There is as a mailer of fac t no connection between this committee and the next State convention and suoli a resolution would be merely a suggest i. n. Resolutions of thanks were introduced Chairman Jone> a"d his assistants, Messrs. J. I). Hell and J. W. I?. Pope and adopted unanimously. Mr. 1?, IT. Jay ires offered the following resolution, which was adopted: "Whereas the business of thU meeling is the last official duty to be transacted by this committee as at present consti'tuted. and whereas the "Democracy of Sculh Carolina is soon to 'enter as an active participant into a regular national election, and whereas many questions of nationwide importance and of vital interest to humanity .will bo submitted to the nati'o.i for solution; *' Therefore be it resolved. That wi;h an abiding faith the business ability and breadiMi of south Carolina.we confidently look forwaid to conservative and positive action on all questions which may be reviewed by the etming convention an 1 also bespeak a most liberal attitude towards each and every business interest of the whole nation." 8 Igriciturol Implements Now is the time to secure your extra help, and since manual labor is o uncertain we tire forced to employ the most effectual implements in he successful cultivation of the soil.
