Special rates have been given the members of the Asspeiation by the management and the assembly hall of the 'hotel has been tendered the Association in which to hold the sessions. At the banquet several invited guests will deliver speeches. The full program will be announced later. Accept.ance has been receiv 'ed from Hon. Lu'cian L. Knight, editor of the Atlanta Georgian, who will speak to the toast, "South Carolina and Georgia." Mr. Frank L. Stanton, "Just From Georgia," was extended an invitation to be with us. He promised to come if he could and we are expecting him to attend the banquet on the 8th. - 'It is important that the President should know as early as possi ble how many expect to attend this convention, and it is 'hoped that every newspaper published in South Carolina will have one or more represent.atives present. If you desire transportation~ for any one connected with your pa per who is a member of the Association or for any member of his family, please advise the President at New'berry, S. C., at once. THE SIDE TRIP. I have made arrangemnents to take the side trip whieh has been announced but in order to do so and have everything go off pleas antly it is very important that you let me know at once whether you will take this trip or not. It is proposed to leave Greenville on Thursday night *at one o'clock and go from there to At.lanta, spending Friday and Friday nigh.t in Atlanta returning from Atlanta on Saturday and stopping at Tallulah Falls over Saturday night and Sunday and Sunday night returning to Greenville Monday afternoon in time to make trains coming South. I will not complete the arrangemen-ts, however, unless I am satis fied that at least 25 members of the Association indicate a desire to take this trip. The cost of the trip will be about as follows: Railroad fare Greenville to Tallulah Falls via Atlanta and back to Greenville, $7.26; hotel. Atlanta, European plan $1.50; hotel at Tallulah Falls, American plan, .$3.50. You will see from this statement tha.t the total actual expense of the trip will be in the neighborhood of $15.00. Tallulah Falls is considered the Niagara of the South. The scen ery is beautiful. "A very healthful and invigorating climate, the land of health, pleasure, and rest, where blackberries, huckleber-ries and fried chicken abound."' If there were as many as 50 who desired to take the trip and I could get the information at once I could secure a special train, but I think the regular schedules will answer and the railroads will fur nish a special coach. Of course, those who desire a Pullman from Greenville to Atlanta will have to pay $2.00 extra. I must know not later than the 15th of this month whether or not the trip will be taken so that the railroads will have time in which to make the necessary traffic arrangements.

Interesting Announcement Made in Nebraska Concerning the Dem ocratic Candidate. Washington, June 1.-T,he an nouncement just made in Nebraska that William J. Bryan would be a candidate for United States senator next year. has vaused considerable in terest to be shown in the subject here. Mr. Bryan is either idolized or hated politically among the national law makers. Immediately after the elee tion last fall, it was understood that he would make the race, but later it became understood also that he had given up the idea. The Nebraska Legislature adopted the Oregon Sensational pri mary. and election plan. last winter at Mr. Bryan's request. Under this each party will nominate itS own can didate for the Senate, and at the elee tion in November, 1910, the entire electorate will vote for Senator. The candidates for the Legislature will have the option of- declaring their willingness to support, in the As sembly the popular choice, or their purpose to irinore that choice and vote as they please. Mr. Bryan's opponent, as matters now stand, is likely t be Senator Elmer .Jacob Burkett, but the poli tical situation in Nebraska is pe -euliar. The liquor question over shadows all others at present. Mr. Bryan a few days ago came out with the declaration that he expected to take an active part in the campaign in favor of suppression of the liquor traffic. This will become a big issue in this campaign. Sena.tor~ Burkett, like Bry an. is a total abstainer, and has al ways linedup with the anti-saloon ele ment. It is therefore surmised. that the liquor interests will make a fight in the Republican primary, in an ef fort to nominate as the Republican candidate some other man than Bu E ett more friendly to the saloon cause. If they sueceedt in beating Burkett withi a liquor maw der wil t he:n back this Republicani x erously :n ti.e.gen eral election, and in meh ai campfgn a great dedal mi.)f.m' k9ly wo"ld be spent. If Bryan comes to the Senate he -will stand in mutch the same rela tions to the Democrats in the upper chamber that LaFollette occupied to ward the Republicans when he came here. His efforts will be to preach the gospel to a new Democracy and to force his views on his party follow ers. If they decline to accept his lead ership they will be called upon to answer to their ennstituents for that refusal. and Bryan 's popular strength it is declared might easily cause the retirement of various Senators, who have not been willing to accept his leadership. The prospective appear ance of Bryan in the Senate in short makes a good many Democratic Sen ators uneasy about their own status but it is a long run to the wire, and to defeat Burkett will be no small undertaking.
