The political campaign in this Slat# may he Bald to be fairly open now, and noon It will be in full blaat from the mountain to the sea. The County Conventions meet on Monday, diay 4, and the State Convention will meet on May 20. Candidates are be ing brought out by their frlenda/mnd eoon they will be all out. Th£ can didates for United States Senator are: Messrs. O. R. Martin, John Gary Evans, George Johnstone, E. D. Smith and D. C. Heyward. From ex pressions in the county press, It ap pears to be the opinion that the race Is between Ex-Gov. Evans and Ex- Gov. Heyward, but Mr. Martin seems to object to the promulgation of this opinion, and doubtless the other can didates <U> also, but they do not ex press thdimselves as does Mr. Martin. Some Past History. In 1202, when Messrs. Evans and Johnstone were also candidates for the senate, the vote in the first pri mary stood: , William Elliott, 13,658. John Gary Evans, 17,893, J. /. Hemphill, 13,261. D. 8. Henderson, 13,771. Geo. Johnstone, 13,556. A. C. Latimer, 22,971. Total 95,110. The second primary was between Evans and Latimer, and In the sec ond election Mr. Evans received 86.- 371 votes and Mr. Latimer 53,890. Mr. Latimer being elected by a ma jority of 17,519, over Mr. Evans. Mr. Evans had been defeated for the sen ate by John L. McLaurin in 1997 and again by Joseph H. Earle in 1896. In the year 1902, Capt. Heyward made his entry into polities and the vote in the first primary resulted as follows: D C. Heyward, 36,551. M. F. Ansel, ,17,685. W- J- Talbert. 18,218. J. H. Tillman. 18,298. W. H. Timmerman, 6,515. total, 88,887. The second race was between Hey ward and Talbert and the vote re sulted: Heyward, 50,830; Talbert 49,414. Capt. Heyward being elect ed by n majority of 10,336. la 1804 Gov. Heyward was re-elected without opposition The year 1902, also saw the poll tical debut of Hon. O. B. Martin, who in that year was first a candidate for the office of state superintendent of edacation against Hon. John J. Me Mahan, receiving 48,860 votea against 45,911 for Mr. McMahan, there be ing only two contestants. Since then Mr. Martin has not had opposition for this office, being re-elected in 1904 end 1606. The Gubernatorial Race. The withdrawal of Mr. Feather etone from the race for governor leaves the Hon. C. L. Blease, senator from Newberry, as the only candidate against Gov. Ansel. Mr. Blease was always a stalwart state dispensary supporter and since that Institution's abolition he has come out on an «X' tended local option platform. Gov Ansel on the other hand announced his platform this year to be restrict ed local option, favoring a law mak Ing the entire state prohibition with the right to counties to exempt them selves by majority vote and sell whiskey through jibnnty dispensaries In IfiOfi, wheffhe was elected gov ernor, Mr. Ansel favored the present county option system, and in 1902 when he was defeated, he favored the state dispensary as "the best solu tion of .the liquor question." Before that time he had been regarded, aa a prohibitionist. Mr. Ansel, while man of positive personal convicltona has always been a close student of popular sentiment anl his successive platforms indicate the trend of pub lic opinion In this state fairly well during the Inst few years. That the prohibitiolsts will be content to have such a law enacted as Mr. Ansel now advocates seems evident from Mr. Featherstone's withdrawal. Other State Offices. Mr. Martin not being a candidate for re-election ; the way Is open for a new. pian in the office of State Sup erintendent of Education. County Superintendent of Education E. C.

At Calcutta, India, the Doors Plan ters’ Association has appealed to the government for help in ridding the the cohntry of wild elephants, whose pranka are becoming intolerable. Though no actual .‘‘rogues'’ are re ported or loss of life, crops are said to be trampled on, fences torn down, rbofs pulled off, and many roads ren dered Impassable by the patrollng of these mischievous pachyderms. The most serious matter, however. Is in terruption of railway traffic, for the brutes exhibit a queer predilection for wandering on the line, which is narrow gauge, and therefore ren ders the trains specially liable to de railment should they meet an obsta cle when running nt night or round curves In the day time. PICKED UP AT SEA. Wrecked Off Charleston and Rescued by Yacht. The steam yacht Columbia arrived at New York from Florida on Tuesday with three fishermen on board, res cued from their sinking boat in a gale off Charleston. The three men ■ailed from Charleston In the fishing smack Star on April 17. The next day thty ware caught in i gale in which-the smack lost her mast and most of her aaila. When the derelict was sighted the sea was running so high that the Columbia could not lower her boats. The yacht approach ed the Star so near that ropes could be thrown to the fishermen, who were then hauled on board the Columbia. Their friends In Charleston had about given them up as lost. HEIRS OF GARRET8QN. Information Wanted of n Captain in the United States Army. The. Charleston Post says Post master W. L. Harris has received a letter from Attorneys tqnon ft Lyon of Washington. D.

"And *1111 they come!’* exclaimed Wllllis Clayton aa be entered his airy little office In the Oxford build' Eng and saw the package of envelop Mi on Ills desk. Large envelop I and small of all tints and shades, and with a few exceptions each highly perfumed.

On this business an aver age profit of 39 per cent, was made, the total profit, being $268,941.98. This Is at the rate of over a million dollars a year profit. According to the statement recent ly prepared by Comptroller General Jones the state dispensary during Its thirteen years of business paid into the state treasury for all purposes the sum of 81,515,107.67. The ^proportion of profit paid to the counties and towns varied at dif ferent time, but the total profit of the State dispensary, even when there were dispensaries In forty-one coun ties did not reach one million dollars per year, qr thirteen million dollars In the years that It was in operat!on v .According to the report made by Dispensary Auditor West to Governor Ansel at the close of the fiscal year the total amount of sales by the county dispensaries duripg the nine and a fraction months they were operated in 1907 was 82,691,663.4", on which the net profit declared was 1695,056.61. The business for a full year, or ^12 months, runs easily in excess of three million dollars, which was the high water mark for the state dispensary, while the profit of the county dispen sary system for twelve months runs in excess of one million dollars, which the state dispensary never did attain, though its founder predicted it would. Though there arf now dispensaries In only twenty-four counties the pro fit from the county dispensary system is proportionately so much greater that from the state dispensary, and It is distributed between the county and towns, that as a revenue producer the county dispensary Is going to prove more popular than the old sys tem, and for that reason, if for no other, it Is more difficult to vote It out than it was to close the county dlsfiGtasaries under the so-called Brice Act under the state dispensary regime, when prejudices and antag onism to the state dispensary had something to do with the large pro hibition vote cast in several counties of the state. GIRL WITH FLEET. j ~ She Made the Trip on the Supply Ship Brutus. As a result of a story circulated in Pittsburg by Elmer E. Day, who was a civilian passenger on the supply ship Brutus, attached to the Pacific fleet, that a girl stowaway made the passage through the straights of Magellan with the ueet, Assistant Secretary of the Navy Newberry has taken stepa to ascertain if a man named Dey was aboard the Brutus. "It does not seem possible that a girl could secrete herself aboard one In 1871. The letter states that 0 f the vessels,” said Mr. Newberry It Is very much to the Interest of the heirs that they ahould be known and Postmaster Harris, desiring to con tribute his services to the cause, will be glad to receive any information In the matter that he may be able to forward to the Washington attor neys. INUNCTIONS PERMANENT. Temporary Orders Issued by Justice Gary Made Perpetual. Charleston blind tigers will have to behave themselves or go to Jail. The Supreme Court Tuesday evnlng rendered decisions in the Char leston dispensary Injunction cases, the temporary Injunctions previously granted by Associate Justice Gary be- inc In each case made permanent, the opinion of the Court being writ ten by Justice Gary. These are cakes additional to those in which perma nent injunctions have already been granted on the petition of the Attor ney General. “I believe it would be almost possible to hide a ham, or even a cigarette. The person who circulated the story kept the girl aboard too long. He should have had her discovered soon er.” According to Dey’s story, the girl hoarded the Brutus at Trinidad and made the trip around the point of the southern continent and landed in Peru USED HER GUN FREELY.

At Memphis, Tenn., following quarrel because she had stopped het children from playing with some ne groes, Mrs. James Wright shot and instantly killed Leila'Gordon, a ne gro woman. Mrs. Wright used a sin gle barreled shot gun and her one shot tore an arm completely from the negro woman's body. Rushing into her home, Mrs. Wright re-loaded the shot-gun and started In pursuit of Mary Davis, another negro woman. She shot at her once after a chase of nearly block, but the shot went wild. Po lice officers from the W’ebster avenue station arrestelT Mrs. Wright a few minutes later and she was locked up on a charge of murder. A quarrel over the children of the white woman being stopped from playing with some negroes living in the vicinity was the cause of the tragedy. - _ e ■ ■ KILLED IN WRECK.

Suddenly he paused, staring Incredulously at a photograph he had juet taken from a . plain little envelope—a smiling sunny face returned his gaze, and two big trusting eyes, shaded by wavy hair falling about a high fore head,"looked into his. “It la!” he exclaimed at last with a deep breath. "She was the last one In the world I thought would sto.<p to such a thing, but there can he no mistake," and he stared long and earnestly at the picture, entirely ig-, noring the accompanying letter. "How many times does a fellow have to rap to be admitted to this sanctum sanctorum?" asked a merry vbice as Its owner put his head In side the door. "Beg pardon.

Involuntarily Clayton's hand fumbled with the pile of letters underneath which lay the picture face of this girl, giving the He direct to her cousin's eulogy. "There’s Kit’s invitation now; I know her writing," exclaimed Frank dlgfftBf a plain little envelcpe from the pile. ' "Haveu't you read It yet?” "Hadn't seen it before,” responded Clayton. "Been opened,” replied Frank, un ceremoniously dragging forth the folded paper. As he scanned the lines a bewildered look stole across his face. “What the dickens—" he began, then stopped, the light of un derstanding superseding his bewild erment, which ended In a hearty laugh. "One on sis,” he cried. "Hear this: Mr. Philip Hanscomb, artist: Dear Sir—Inclosed find the photo graph I wish copied life siie, and about which I spoke to you yester day. Sincerely.
