McLaurin of Bennettsville, who attended the conference of administration supporters in State politics, held Wednesday night at the Jefferson, announced last night tnat he would not be a candidate for governor. "Am out of politics; smri frvrftv#?r_" hp said The ex-senator's statement was as follows: "I will not be a candidate for governor. There is no field for a man of really conservative views. I think factionalism has gone too far and am satisfied that the people: are not going "to be permitted to get together fcy the leaders on either side. The views I expressed at the conference - last Dight <1o not suit eitner extreme, and I long ago made up my mind never to advocate anything which my inner consciousness teaches me is wrong I ? land just where I did in 1890, for the pec pie That movement gav-3 the lirst real liberty that the masses in South Carolina ever enjoyed, I and I find myself out of sympathy with the views expressed by the other speakers at that conference. "I do not think th^t 'Bleaseism' is higher and nobler than Tillmanism. The spirit that animated Tillmanism in 1890 was higher and finer than the sentiments I heard expressed last mgm. Ji cne irony 01 iaie mai i, wbo suffered most injustice from Tillman peisonally, should now be the oniy defender of Tillmanism. While I some of the men who are inciting class hate and prejudice may get into office. I knew that power gained by such methods is ephemeral and lhat the State will suffer. I went there like a man; said what I had to say; | I don't suit them; they don't suit me. i So J might just as well be a man? j that is better than being a governor. .

Jns-tead of a conference of bitter pajtisans there should be a conference cf men from both factions who are net office seekers and a fight made to control the next convention. Then go on and elect a man governor, who will know no faction and neither friend nor foe in the administration of i public affairs. If we do not call a i halt will make a little Mexico of j South Carolina, and what for? Mere- j ly to put this man or that into of-1 fice? That is a prostitution of that great uprising of the people in 1890, which if I cannot prevent I at least will refuse to assist RAISE LITE STOCK, URGES LEVER. Chairman of Agricultural Committee of National House Tells What is ?eded in This State Lexington, October 27.?Congressman Lev.r, after a remarkable automobile trip from Washington to Georgetown, by way of Luray (javes and the Natural Bridge, in company with Congressman Byrnes, as the guest of Congressman Ragsdale, and a trip upon the government torpedo boats from Georgetown to Conway, wh^re he spoke on Thursday, and on to Union, where he spoke on Friday, has reached home in fine physical conMr Lever is in receipt of numerous invitations to speak in various parts of the State, but as yet lias not accepted any of th-:m, although he has previously engaged himself to deliver an address in Augusta on the 6th of November at the Good Roads congress, and at Rock Hill on November 1 at a meeting of the Alfalfa club oi mai cummurn^. "I ain particularly interested in *his latter engagement," said Mr. Lever, "for I see in the alfalfa and grass work begun in this State the genesis of a movement which ultimately must result in' making this State prominent among the Southern States in live stock growing. With the decreasing supply of meat in this country and with the incr asing price for the same, it becomes extremely important that the farmers of South Carolina?big and little?should be induced to enter the fieid of live stock growing as a profitable industry, both within itself and as a soil builder. There is no reason in the world why beef, pork and poultry cannot be successfully raised in South Carolina. We need only to ihave proper pasturage for the first 'two and the elimination of the cattle tick and hog cholera, and for the latter only intelligent handling. "We must teach our people how to grow forage and to build permanent pastures to make cattle growing entirely successful, and it must not be forgotten that the succ ss of hog raising depends upon thp success of cattle raising?the two go together. lio. 6991 REPORT of the Condition of The Peoples Xa. tional Bank, at Prosperity, in the | State of South Carolina, at the Close of business, October 21st, 1013.

"Our farmers must not lose sight, of the fact that the boll weevil is coming i as certain as the night follows the day, and we. must not find ourselves when the time comes unprepared for him, and there can be no state of unpreparedness worse than that of finding ourselves dependent absolutely upon cotton alone. To my mind the live siock proposition as a supplement 10 i our cotton is the livest and most im- J portant proposition we have in the; next few years when the boll weevil strikes us. "I am especially pleased with the ] rhierli iyH^as nf rottrm. bftnaust? I notic- 1 ?d last fall among the people in the Sta-'e a sentiment of doubt as to what effect a change in parties might have, i upon our prosperity. Democrats them- J selves were just a little dubious, and i it is exceedingly gratifying to those of: us who, made the fight and won it, to j have our predictions, that prosperity j would follow a democratic administration, come true. The administration is making good with four feet up. The passage of the tariff bill is the most important economic advance in the policies of our government since the war, and when this is followed by the early enactment of currency reform, to be followed later by a tightening up in our anti-trust laws, the people for the first time in years will have come into their own." Representative Lever will, of course,' attend the State fair and is due to attend a congress called for the purpose of inducing the legislature of the State to appropriate $40,000 to help eradicate thei cattle tick. "We can hardly estimate the enormous loss to this State on account of the cattle tick," says Mr. Lever, "and it is the duty, the highest duty, of wise states- | manship to lend itself to an effort to 1 eradicate it. I feel confident that I 1 can induce the Federal government to ' match dollars with the. appropriation provided for by the State." /N A. T1 fn Ixeniry i>rus>. ramuus fjuvn.
