T '
SAME OLD WAYS
The State Democratic Convection Sticks
to the Old Roles.
DEFEATS ALL CHANCES
Suggested in Them, After Considerable
Discussion. Fight on Wilie
Jones Full Through. Attorney
General Wickersliam Condemned
and Senator Smith is Endorsed.
Aft- r <1 fig.ht of two hours in committees
and nearly tnree hours on
the lloor of the house the State Deni
ociatic Convention Wednesday nignt
killed two important changes suggcF.te
! in the constitution and rul
of the party. These changes were:
1. Requiring tiiat the same qualifications
obtain in the primary as in
the general election.
2. That the convention hereaf'er
elect the chairman of the State Democratic
executive committee, instead
of the committee, as at present.
Then* were other matters brought
up and discussed, says the State, but
it was around these two propositions
that members worked for or
against and discussed in lobbies an.)
on the streets. On the first proposed
c.hange t-her was a roll call. Or
the second the vote was viva voci.
Then there was a resolution condemning
the United States Attorney
General for his r-cent action in prosecuting
certain cotton dealers and
also commending United States Senator
Smith for his stand in the matter.
Everything else was routine and
harmonious. In fact it could not
have been called anything but barmnnlfiiio

some remarks made the night before
on the Stevenson resolution there
was no feeling.
When the report of the committee
on constitution mid rules came
up an unfavorable report was read
on resolutions affecting the qualifications
of voters in the Democratic
primaries. These were offered by
Samuel McCrary, Richland delegation,
Sumter and AlKen delegations
The committee defeated the propositions
by n vote of 27 to 9 after a
vigorous defense by Mr. McMahan.
The committee reported unfavorably
the resolution offered by Mr.
Stevenson proposing ro amend the
constitution relating to the election
of the State chairman.
The resolution read as follows:
"Resolved. That the party conBtl4*
tution be amended in article 8 as
follows: Insert in line 4 after the
word 'office,' the words 'except the
State chairman, who shall be elected
by the State convention.'
"Add at end of the article the
followinir: Provided, if the Stat
chairmanship shall become vacant,
the committee shall elect a chairman
to act till the next State convention.
The committee reported favorably
in the rrsolution by the Lexington
delegation, making the rules more
explicit and allowing the county executives
committee to fix the dates
for county campaigns.
, The committee also suggested that
the word "president" apply to the
presiding officer of the convention.
It also suggested that a candidal
In the primary must he a Democrat
before being allowed to run.
By a vole of 17 to 16, the com
m it tee decided the rules should b
changed, so that should a voter
In the previous primady and his name
had been accidentally left off th
books, the voter be allowed to cast
a bollot.
The question of qualification of
voters upon which majority anr
minority reports were nia to by the
delegations started the fight. The
minority report by Mr. McMahai recommended
the amending of the con
stitution so that only registered e.o
tors be allowed to vote.
The names siened to the minority
report are: B. B. Caldwell, for Chester;
.Ino. .1. MoMahan, Rlehlan l Jno
II. Clifton, Sumter; J. C KlMott.
Rnncaster; Thos. J. Kirkland Kersham;
W. F. Stevenson. Chederfi id;
R. F. Smith, Pickens; J U. Moniey,
Fairfield.
After some discussion, the majority
report of the commit* which
favored the qualifications .-f voters,
in the primary remaining what it 's
now was adopted ' y a vote of 2 to
to 79.
Following the disposition o! the
primary matter, the unfavorable report
of the committee on the proposed
change in the constitution respecting
the election of the state
chairman was taken op.
After some discussion, the previous
question was ordered and by a
large majority the resolution was
voted down and the unfavorable report
adopted.
^ There was some discussion on the
proposed chan?e in the rules allowing
voter to prove that his name
was on the club roll. The favorable
report was tabled.
The following resolution was then
adopted on motion or .Mr. Stevenson

COSTS MORE MONEY i
TO RUN FOR OFFICE IN SOUTH
CAROLINA THAN IT I)II>.
The Tarty Needs Mere Funds Than
it IHd Formerly and the Candidates
Must Make It Up.
The State Democratic executive |
committee decided Tuesday to increase
the assessments on candidates
entering the race for various Stale
offices. The raise was made because
i there is very little money now in
the treasury. The matter was left
with a special subcommittee and after
going into the matter thoroughly
their report was adopted, nlthough
there was some opposition to it at
first by Robert Lide. of Orangeburg,
who thought that t,he expenses of
the cominitt e should be cut down.
The old assessments provided t.h*u
candidates for governor should pay
an entrance fee of 550, other State
officers $37.50, solicitors $25 and
congressmen $50. The new assessments
provide for $125 each for
congressional candidates, $50 each
for other State officers, $50 for lieutenant
governor and $75 for governor.
Other suggestions of the subcommittee
were adopted. Chairman
Jones appointed as members of Uu
subcommittee to arrange the itinerary
A. \V. Jones r nd D. J. Griffith.
The following is the report of the
committee:
"Your committee appointed to
suggest assessments and the date of
opening of the campaign and the
ltinery, respectfully reports:
"That, after mature deliberatiou
and investigation, we find that the
cost of t.he campaign of 1908 was
$2,956, and would therefore suggest
that the assessment on congressmen
be $125, for governor $75, and other
State offices, $50, which from information
received would yield $5,075.
"Your committee would suggest
that the date for the opening of the
campaign be fixed for June 22.
"We would further suggest that
a committee of three, consisting "f
the State chairman and two members
of the executive committee to
he appointed by the chairman, be
appointed to make the arrangements
for the itinerary and revising of
rules of any change or in the constitution.
"All of which is respectfully submitted.

With a roar that was hoard three

a u i;ery 01 seven boilers
at the plant of the American Tin
Plate and Sheet Company at Canton,
Ohio, exploded Tuesday afternoon,
killing from twenty to thirty men end
injuring about fifty. Among the injured
are a half dozen men. who. it
is said, will probably die before morning.
Others, physicians say, cannot
recover from their injuries.
The cause of the explosion is at
present unknown. The fireman and
engineer, who were in the boiler
room, are dead. No one else about
the plant who survived the accident
can give any explanation.
One workman says that he heard
three distinct explosions in quick succession.
They came so close, how- j
ever, that it was also over In n
minute.
The force of the concussion wat
terrific. The big plant is in such
a state of ruin as to be practically a
total less. A mere egg shell of th<
building is left.
Identification of the men was difficult.
because many of them were sc
mutilated that even the most intimate
friends of the dead could not
recognize the features.
Heads were blown from several
bodies. Arms and tegs were tor^
from the trunks. Fragments of bodies
were blown several squar's from
the scene and bits of human flesh
have been picked up on porches and
roofs of houses and in trees)
There were 100 men at work in
the plant at the time of the accident.
Out a dozen or so escaped some injury.
Thi ee, and others who rushed
to the plant as soon as the disister
was known, worked heroically
ro rescue the injured front the ruins,
which noon took fire, but the fire detartmtnt
extinguished tne flantes.
The superintendent of the plant
put foremen and other trusted employes
at work trying to make a list
if the dead, Injured and missing
The task proved difficult, because the
injured had been rushed to the three
hospitals or the city, and there was
nothing which can identify them.
Members of the bereaved families
rushed frantically to the plant, and
then to the hospitals and residences
near the ruined shops, in an effort
to find a trace of their loved ones
It was thought at eight o'clock Tuesday
night that all the uead had b'-en
removed from the debris. It was
then stated that so far as knowp the
lead numbered twenty, but this did
not include any who had died at
their homes after removal from the
ruins.
The body of one man, unknown,
was blown through a nouse over seven
hundred feet from the plant. The
body entered the house from the
mst side, and continued in a straight
'ine through a bed room and out at
the other side of the house to Louis
ivenue. The torso of another man
was found in the garden of a yard
about 500 feet west of the scene.
Arms, le.-s and parts of bodies were
strewn about the neighl>orhood.
The bodies of seven men, mutilated
beyong recognition, were found ;
In the north end or the mill.
"For God's sake hit me on tha

Association, representing sixt> J

has been asked and urged to join the
"Hoosters' Ciub." The appeal was
made by Lewis W. Parker, the president
of the Association, in a speech 1
nt Charlotte on Tuesday. It was a *
redhot and eventful speech. Mr. Par- '
ker went to the meeting with a print- 1
ed speech, but he was so impressed '
with the importance of this appeal 1
that he left the text and ma.ie .his 1
real speech impromptu It was a
ringing appeal to the manufacturers 1
to jjin the boosters and help the pro- 1
ducer Been re high, and good prices 1
for raw cotton and a logical and 1
j sharp arraignment of t.he outrageous 1
rules of the New York Cotton Ex- !
change. 1
Mr. Parker, himself at the head of '
mills operating over one-third of a '
million spindles and a close student. '
insisted that the cottun manufacturers
should quit hacking up the spec- 1
nlator by decrying the value of raw i
cotton. The very want of confidence
in high cotton on the part of the manufacturers.
he urged, bolstered the i
speculators and helped the "bears" (
force down the mark t that was never
supplied with real cotton, if the
same effort has been used in con- J
vincing the world that there was u
shortage of cotton as was use 1 i?

have been maintained and goods
would have kept on a parity with 5
cotton.

I facturers to profit by possible mis
j fakes and join hands with thus** un- <
'ertaking to get a fair price for cot- t
ton and appreciate changed con li- '
Hons. The farmer is entitled to a fair
and honest return and he begged the i t
representatives of the cotton mills | *

is going to be bare of cotton next j i
September, and next year's crop will I
L I 1- ' * "
uuiuiy suppiy needs with reasonable c
reserve, and there is no use to ex- I
peet low price cotton, and then Mr. t
Parker frankly showed that his per- t
sonal experience was that his mills t
made more money with high priced t
cotton tnan with low and declining
cotton. f
Mr. Parker knows what he is talk- i
ing about and his intelligent audience t
was amazed at the array of facts and a
Hgiirt b he gave in an off hand way.
Mr. Parker said that the Government h
was to blame for much of the mis- r
understanding about the crop. It t
sent out a report about the ravages c
if the boll weevil being exaggerated n
and all sorts of stufT. He rapped '
the Government officials for saying j i
'hat the normal price of cotton I (
should be from 8 to 1 0 cenis. When ti
the boll weevil fake was sen-t out,!<
otton tumbled 1 1-2 cents and the c
cloth market went to pieces. T.hen. j t
early in January, the Government 11
sent nut a crop estimate and the gam- <
biers, hv their manipulation forced i
cotton dawn 3 1-4 cents on the Ex- i
change.
Mr. Parker talks freely and gen- '
erally in conversational tone, but
when lie landed on the methods of '
i *.he New York Exchange he rose on
I his tip-toes anil grow eloquent. Mr.
Parker made it plain that he appreciated
the honest ir.cn in the Ex- '
change, and that he knew there were i
.honest m n in the Exchange, but <
he denounced the methods and went 1
into minute details. The chief trou <
ble he pointed out, was that the rules j
are framed for the protection of I
speculative sellers and not for the 1
legitimate buyer. The rules are for
gambling and not fair trade, and .he
I insisted that all ho ivanto.i < .
fair, square deal for all and rules (
that were f: ir and h<.nost, both to i
buyer and seller. I
Mr. Parker carried conviction with j
his statements, because he knew the'
rules and th>. n .he related a personal j
experience. He. with other legitimate
buyers, was in New York, early
| this month to got cotton. On May 2
Mr. Parker bought five thousand
bales of cotton in Now York. It
was not speculative cotton, for Mr.
Parker wanted the accual cotton for
the summer.
T.hen Mr. Parker related how the
New York folks squirmed and twisti
led to keep him and oth r buyers;
from demanding the real cotton. One!
of the party from Georgia wanted to
morrow money on the actual cotton.
He did not got it tin 1 was told
he had better not mix up with Grown
and Scales and a lot of "bulls." Th-*
mill man told him that .he would get
I me money at Home, and he did so, i
I but he was offered the money if he i
would leave the cotton in New York
Mr. Parker did not want nor mod l
money. They told him the broker* <
had been refused insurance on the ]
cotton he had bought and how he had
to g t insurance in his own way and
then how the effort was made to dissuade
him from taking the real cot- j
ton hv delaying and playing with the.
classification and suggesting that
the classification may he indefinitely'
