DEMOCRATS NOMINATE DR. WOODROW WILSON PRINCETON PRESIDENT FOR GOV ERNOR OF NEW JERSEY. Smith's Forces, Joined With Hudson Democracy, Select College Presi dent on the First Ballot. Trenton, N. J., Sept. 15.-The New Jersey Democratic State convention nominated Dr. Woodrow Wilson, pres-! ident of Princeton university, for the offi,e of governor. Dr. Wilson's nomination was brought about largely through the in fluence of Former United States Sen ator James Smith, Jr., of Essex coun ty, who is undisputed Democratic lead er of the State, and Robert Davis, lead er of the Hudson Democracy, who.for the first time in many years acted in harmony with Senator Smith. Besides this support Dr. Wilson had with him a number of independent Democrats < who believed that because of his stand ing as an educator he would make an unusually strol candidate. I Dr. Wilson was ,m'nated on the I first ballot and received 40 more votes 1 than was necessary to a choice. Frank t S. Katzenbach, Jr., who was not a can didate, although urged by his home ccunty, was a favorite with individual delegates and received nearly 400 vot es in the convention. t The platform adopted was in line . with the Democra-ite platform of three years ago, except that it was more it specific in advocacy of reform meas ures, including the conferring of rate making powers upon the present pub-I lic utilities commission. t Dr. Wilson, after his nomination came before the convention, accepted the nomination and made an address. Feels Highly Honored. Princeton, N. J., Sept. 15.-Presi dent Wocdrow Wilson returned to Princeton immediately after finishing his speech of acceptance at Trenton. He said: "You can say that I am highly hon ored by the nomination, especially as it came absolutely without solicitation. No promise or pledge was given by me and I am a free candidate." c When Dr. Wilson was asked how his relations with Princeton would -be c affected he said that of course he would resign if elected. CROP CONDITIONS GOOD. Raising Nore Corn in Sounneastern States--With Favorable Fall Large Cotton Crop Assured. Washington, D. C., Sept. 19.-Presi-t dent Finley, of the Southern Railway company, who has been looking into business conditions in the Southeast ern States today said: "On the whole the conditions are encouraging. In agriculture the pres-; ent outlook is particularly good. The cotton crop is later than usual, and is, therefore, more sub.iect to future weather conditions than is usual at this time of the year. However, the condition report of the United States agricultural department issued, on the 2nd instant, showed a better average condition of the growing cotton crop In the States south of the Potomac and Ohio rivers and east of the Mississippi than on the corresponding date last year, and the area planted was report ed in June as 140,000 acres greater than last year. "With ordinarily favorable weather conditions until the crop is harvested,I the Southeastern States will have the~ largest corn crop on record for that I section. The area planted is more than a million and a half acres greater than last year, and the condition re port issued on September 8 showed a better condition in Mississippi than in any other Stater in . the United States, with Alabama a close second and with good condition reported from, each of the other Southeastern States. The increased corn crop of the South will have an important bearing on~ general trade conditions, for localities which have formerly bought consider able corn from other parts of the country are growing in some cases all, and in other cases the greater part of: what they will require this year, and will be in a position to buy other com modities on a larger scale. "Coal is moving in larger volume than last year, and lumber is in more active demand. "The cotton mill industry of the world has been passing through a pro-: longed period of depression due to the inability of manufacturers -to market their products at prices commensu rate with the price of their raw ma terial. This has resulted in a material curtaihne~nt of produlctionl in' the Soumh as well as in other cotton mill cen tres. In the meantime, the consump tion of cotton goods throughout the world is continuing. Stocks in the hanne of mpnhnnts are being reduced. .,nd there ise very reason to believe tha:G us soon as the size of uhs y9 a< crop can be more accurately estimat ed, there will be an active demand for cotton goods of all kinds at prices bearing such a relation to the price of the raw material as to stimulate the mill industry. "Taking all factors of the situation into consideration, I am encouraged to believe that, with average weather conditions and in the absence of an unusually early killing frost, we may look forward to an active fall and winter business in the Southeastern States." PARDONS CONVICTED BANKER. governor of Georgia Follows Freeing of Cabaniss With Clemency to Orr, Latter's Cashier. Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 17.-C. M. Orr, ormer cashier of the exchange bank )f Macon, after serving one year of a ,even-year sentence for embezzlement >f $90,000 of the bank's funds, was to Lay unconditionally pardoned by Gov 3town. J. W. Cabaniss, president of the )ank, was pardoned several days ago >efore entering upon a one-year sen ence on a similar charge. "Because he said prisoner was held liable for! in act chargeable properly to the )oard of directors of the bank." Gov. Brown now gives as a reason or pardoning Orr that the latter hould not be made to serve a longer erm than was imposed upon the pres dent of the bank. After referring to the differences in he sentence imposed upon, the presi ent and cashier, and noting that C. >. Bannon, a clerk of the bank, was .cquitted of an embezzlement charge, be governor said: "Justice is eternally immovable, but he very foundation stones of the tem le wherein she sits enshrined arel battered if such inequality based up 'n errors of fact shall stand as the, ,dministration of our laws." DUE TO ATTACKS OF PAPERS. [on. Louis Appelt, of Manning, S. C., Gives Out Interesting Views on Result on Recent Guberna torial Race. harlotte News. Hon. Louis Appelt, of Manning, S. ., editor of the Manning Times and tate senator from Clarendon county, ras in the city today on business. Mr. Appelt was recently nominated 3r the State senate for the third arm. He has been actively engaged i politics for a number of years and :in close touch with the politicalf ituation in South Carolina. Mr. Ap elt's views on the recent guberna rial race will be of interest. "Were you a Featherstone or a ilease man?" was asked Mr. Appelt. "I took no active part in the fight," e answered, "but my county went for alease by a small majority." "Do you think that the defeat of 'eatherstone was a repudiation of the rohibition issue?" was the next query. "Well, in my opinion, the nomina on of Blease, which is equivalent to n election is largely attributed to the' illification and abuse. Of my own :niowledge-. there were numbers of! ersons, who did not expect to vote or Blease, but after the attacks on im, went to him, and not only went co him but worked for him. The :nocks hurled at him only served to oost him in the race for governor. "Fair play is what the masses de nand of a newspaper and whenever newspaper undertakes to defeat a nan to gratify a personal spleen or -esorts to misrepresentation, villifica ion and abuse, the people rise up in heir might and rebuke it." In speaking of the calibre of a man hat Blease is, Mr. Appelt said, "I 1ave served in the general assem >1y with Blease for eight years and regard him as a man of fine abilWy. I?e is one of the best parliamenta-, ians in the State, a hard fighter and mmovable when once he takes a posi :ion. He has made a great marpy ene nies by his outspoken views, becuase 2e calls a spade a spade and directs t right at the person or persons he ntends it for. In other words, he is in open and fair fighter. "Having had long legislative expe rience and being young and ambi ious, Mr. Blease gives every prom ise of making for South Carolina one of the best governors the State has had since the days of reconstruction." In answer as to whether or not he thought this victory of the local op-' tionists was the death knell to pro ibition in South Carolina, Mr. Ap pelt stated, "I believe this, that had Thonas G. McLeod, local option can didate, zorren into the second race ~vth Featherstone , his majority would have been much greater than that giv-, en Blease, I am satisfied that prohibi-: tion is very much on the wane in South Carolina. The votes given to McLeod and Blease was a fair indica rinn of tim strength of the !nol nn OTICE From now and on I will do leaning, Pressing and Repairing Clothes for CASH ONLY I adopt this cash method as I am too busy to collect small amounts for this kind of work, so please don't ask for credit.
