The senatorial Campaign meeting at Newberry Friday was marked by the biggest demonstration that has yet been made since'the crusade for votes opened at St. Matthews three weeks ago. Snator Smith was driven from his hotel to the Jones grove, where the meeting was held, astride a bale of cotton, drawn by a pair of splendid Missouri mules, surrounded by a crowd of farmers, and preceded by a squad of mounted cavalrymen, who acted as escort. At the conclucion of his speech the senator was again picked up, put into an automobile, pending from every angle of which were cotton stalks in bloom, and again driven back to the hotel while several hun dred noisy supporters followed the trail of dust, yelling their approval of the Job. Another feature of Friday’s meet Ing was the appearance of the white cotton bloom as a Smith campaign badge. Hundreds of these were in evidence and stood out in striking contrast to the red streamers that fluttered from the coat lapels of the governor’s friends. When Mr. Jennings was intro duced. he was greeted with cheers for the governor. The mayor of Sum ter responded to this by announcing his pleasure In seeing the cotton bios som predominated the red ribbon. The speaker denounced as "abso lutely false” a report which he said had been circulated that he intends to withdraw from the race when the campaign closes. H% declared he was in to the finish, whether the voters count him in or out.~~ This speaker said that his health had been excellent until he had gone into the campaign. Since then, he said, the dally recital of the gov ernor’s record had so reacted on him that he was almost suffering from the cholera morbus. When Mr. Jennings started on par dons, some fellow asked, "How about petitions?” His retort being, "Yea, but ask the governor about those he turned out without petitions," adding that the governor had pardoned one man who had been dead ten years. "Blind tigers on your side,” vol unteered a Bleasite. “No, because I put them in Jail, fifty at one time, and they left Sumter; gone to Char leston, I reckon.” t Mr. Pollock said Gov. Please had denounced the appointment of Mr. James L. Sims of Orangeburg as United States marshal, because Mr. Sims, "when a mere boy,” set type on a Republican newspaper. Still, said the speaker, the governor ap pointed on his staff a man, Col. J. P. Gibson of Bennettsville, whose name appeared as a candidate on ‘he Union Republican "calico” ticket in Marl boro county in 1880. Mr. Pollock -exhibited the ticket, declaring the names of both white and negro can didates appeared thereon. When asked if he didn’t want a Please badge, Mr. Pollock replied that be fore he would vote for the governor he would suffer his right hand cut off. He urged his hearers not to Vote for the “damnable record of Cole L. Please". He said thousands voted for Please two years ago “and held their noses while they did it". Senator Smith told the New'berry audiences that he had no apologies to make for working for the farmers in the United States Senate for five and one-half years. "I would not array class against class,” the senator added. "I have not been against others so much as I’ve been for my crowd,” the senator said. "What’s I’ve been wanting to do, and what I’ve been trying to do, is not to have so many laws put on the statute books as I’ve been trying to get gome'pf those against the far mer taken off,” he continued. No one, he said, wdio had not pass ed through the Gethsemane of adver sity on the farm, through that hand- to-and conflict with poverty could rightly represent the great mass of agricultural intereata- in the Unitcrt States Senate. In emphasizing his eager spirit to defend his farmer friends, the-speaker said that he would fight any man who attempted to stand between him and them. “We’re with you and we'jl help!” came hack from the audience, amidst much applause. The speaker then explained the amendment which he wrote to the banking and currency law to extend farmers’ notes, and the real estate feature, which paper must be accept ed as collateral, and displayed the MUST PROTECT SECRETS government arrests aviator FOR TAKING PICTURES. Photographs IVibllshed in a Western Magazine Showing Defenses of • k . Canal Cause* Trouble. Warrants for the arrest of Chas. K. Field, editor of the Sunset maga zine; Robert J. Fowler, an aviator; Riley A. Scott, a writer, and Ray A. Duhem, a photographer, were Issued Friday at the reapeit Of John W. Preston, United States attorney at San Francisco The charge against all four is the disclosure of military secrets. The penalty is ten years* imprisonment or a $10,000 fine for such disclosure if made abroad, and one year, or a $1,000 fine, If made In the United States. In April Sunset published an arti cle entitled “Can the Panama Canal be Destroyed from the Air?” Re productions of photographs taken from an aeroplane and showing some of the fortifications of the canal zone and the San Francisco presidio accompanied the text. As soon as a copy of the number was called to the attention of the war department it requested Preston to investigate. Field, Fowler, Duhem and' Scott were served with the warrants and taken before United States Commis sioner Francis Krull. They were re leased on their own recognition. At a special session of the Federal grand Jury the government will pre sent Its evidence and aik for indict ments. The editorial comment of the magazine on one of the photos, against which the war department particularly complained, was as fol lows: * “This is one of the most significant photos ever published In this coun try. Below the aeroplane from which the picture was taken lie the Naos Islands, In the Hay of Panama, on which' the United States government is mounting batteries of the heAviest artillery in the world to protect the Pacific approach of the Panama canal “On the island, almost directly un der the aeroplane, can be seen the emplacement for the most powerful weapon ever constructed, the first sixteen-inch disappearing gun^whlch has an effective range of about twelve miles. “Here Is the significance of the photo: The aeroplane might have come In time of war from a battle ship out of range of the big gun, flying a safe height and carrying five hundred pounds of high explosives Instead of a camera. Would not the big gun be helpless against such a foe?” The editor described the circum stance in which the photo was taken and who took it, adding: “Shortly afterwards President Wilson issued an executive order forbidding such flights under heavy penalty. The photos made on this flight probably are the only pictures that ever will be taken of the canal from the air, except for purposes of war.” FORCES MILL TO CLOSE L W. W.

MonAghan mills, one of the larg est mills in the vicinity of Greenville, and one noted for its welfare depart ment, closed down Frid-.y as a result of a conflict in the rules of the Park er Mills company and of the I. W. \V.. an organization which is said to [-have .recently gained a foot held,there. Saturday morning a small parade, one hundred and five persons partici pating, gave Greenville its flrht sight of an organized body of the I. W. W, The body of mill workers, some of whom were womon, marched under the United States flag end the red flag of the order. They proceeded to their hall and held an orderly meeting. The trouble arose, it is claimed, over the refusal of the weavers to make up time Ipst Wednesday after noon during a thunder storm, which necessitated the shutting off of the power. The rules of the company are that Lime thuk lost shall be made up on ensuing days. The rules of the I. W. W., so state some those af fected, are tliat time shall not be made up. There is no question of wages i involved, as those who pro tested against the company's rule are paid by the piece for their work. They declined to make up time that afternoon. Thursday morning, when the oper atives came to the mill, the superin tendent Informed them that they must abide by the rules of tli^ com pany and agree to make up the lost time or remain out of the building. They declined to work under this condition, so for two days the mill has been closed. It Is rumored that four officials organizers from the 'North will he brought to Greenville in case the operatives can not win their point. There Is now one official of the I. W. W at Greepvllle. Thursday night a meeting was held and.was addressed by Sheriff Rectors and others. The sheriff, it Is said, assured the opera tives of his support. The opinion was expressed that but for the sheriff's attitude and that of other persons not affiliated with the operatives or the mill management, that the matter could have been ad justed. Those in close touch with the situation say now that the trou ble Is no expected to be of great dura tion. The ' loom fixers, who are among the protesters, were granted upon their petition several weeks ago an increase in pay.
