THE DEMOCRACY. Meeting of the State Executive Com mittee in Columbia. SENATOR TILLMAN ATTENDED. Home Wanted the Convention Held In 1— r — b Charleston, but the Committee Decided to Meet in Columbia. The State Democratic Executive Committee met in Columbia Thursday night and fixed the date for the State convention. Twenty-six out of forty represented. Senator Mr. Wilborn then went on to say that it had never been explained why St. Louis got I5,000,000 and Charles ton could not get ,< a few thousands. The reason of it is that we are Demo- erkts down here an^ they are Repub licans there and that is why he would like to see the Democrats of the State endorse the exposition. ; i Mr. W. .1. .Stribling of Walhalla said that the fare from that place would really be •2.50* cheaper to Charleston than to Columbia, but the other expenses would offset ttds dif ference. Furthermore the members of the convention might fall into the hands of the Philistines—the blind tigers. Mr. Ketehins of Fairfield remarked banteringly that as this invitation had not come unsolicited, tt had tetter not be accepted. MEMORIAL HALL. A LABOR PAPER WARNED What Capt. B. H.

All this occurred very quickly. A very short distance.had teeivtraversed before Mr. Collins dropped over in the buggy and life was extinct. SUMMONED HELP. There was no one near at hand. Leaving his dead friend, Mr. Wood went as quickly as possible for assis tance, first reaching the home of Mr. William Burnett. Immediatel that attention could be given the lifejess body and the neighlmrs around could be notified. Mr. Wood took ttnrpfos per steps to send word to the family of the deceased and to notify the authorities. Mr. Wood quickly reach ed Marshal Getzen and with that of- JJcer and Mr. Hertert Bunch and other gentlemen, rode into the city to confer with the authorities here and to as their assistance to aid in securing the highwaymen ih case they should come this way. The [arty met Chief of l*ullce Norris and Mr. Wood gave to him what description of the negroes that he could. He had paid" very lettle attention to them when they had first accosted them and had not 'rlikrg'ed his memory as to Uieir appearance.

Mr. L. J. Williams said this would be a very radical step—for the conven tion to meet in Charleston. The rail road fare might be cheap, but there were other expenses to consider. Mr. Bellinger contended that the first thing to consider is whether or not It would benefit the Democratic party for convention to meet in Charleston. Mr. Wharton again spoke in favor of Charleston. .The constitution of the party is silent on the place of meet ing, and this very silence shows that the. wisdom of the* members of the committee is relied upon. Mr. .Apjielt also favored Charleston. Mr. Wilborn explained how he had received a telegram from Capt. Wage- ner. Senator Tillman asked if Mr. Wilburn had been fishing for an invi tation. Mr. Wilborn tlien prodded Senator Tillman. He Rpbke ln warm- somc of the non-commissioned officers had refused to carry out the death sentence.

Now. after tte payment of Gen Un derwood and the unfortunate hold-up of the Daly subscription, the cash of the Association shrinks to |. r >4,883 SO. If the Dtly compromise is effected there will then have to be raised still some thirty thousand dollars to meet the balance of Mr. Rouss's fund. 'Die heirs of Mr. Rouss assure the Association that the last payment of his fund will be made whenever the full amount of the one hundred thous and dollars required hy tlie Associa tion is on deposit. It will he seen that the full amount in cash realized by the Association, after more than a year of effort through individuals, camps, chapters, etc, in the length and bfreadth of the South previous to the employment of Gen Underwood, was $20,457 71. It will also be seen that had the money been realized from tte Daly subscrip tion the board of trustees would have been In condition to have gotten the whole of the Rouss fund and work would have been going on now on the Memorial Hall.
