McGowan in Columbian State. Washington, Jun 23.?South Carolina will soon have a full fledged ambassador, the president today having nominated Capt. William E. Gonzales of Columbia, now minister to Uuba, to De amDassaaor exirauiujuary and plenipotentiary to Peru. This change is a promotion for Captain Gonzales. He was made minister to Cuba at the beginnig of the Wilson administration and has performed the duties of that position svith honor to the United States. Recently by an act of congress it was decided to place Peru in the ambassador, class and today's nomination is another step in the matter. As minister to Cuba Captain Gonzales' salary was $12,000 a year; in [lis new position it will be $17,500 ivith the added honor of being an ambassador instead of a minister. There are hundreds of friends of the new embassador and his family in South Carolina who will be glad to know that he is soon to represent the United States in this high official position, the duties of which he will assume immediately after being confirmed by the senate. Since being appointed as minister to Cuba, both Captain and Mrs. Gon zales have been visitors to Washington from time to time and have made many friends in the national capital, official and otherwise. Two other nominations sent to the senate were connected with the naming of Captain Gonzales as ambassador. Benton C. McMillin,- former governor of Tennessee and former minister to Peru, was nominated as minister to Guatemala and Boaz ,W. Long of New Mexico to be minister to Cuba. Mr. Long was former chief of the Latin-American division of the state department and former minister t.o Salvador. Subscribe to The Herald and &ews, $1.50 a year. ANNUAL CITIZENS MEETING.
