Spencer. Williamsburg -W. D. Bryan. Alter organization the following officers were eleoted: President- E. D. Smith of Florence. Vice President?E. L. Archer of Spartanburg. Secretary?F. H. Weston, Columbia. Treasurer?F. H, Hyatt, Columbia. Secretary Weston read the minutes of the last meeting After these had been approved Mr. Hyatt made his report as treasurer. This was referred to an auditing committee. Mr. uy?&b HLatea mat iwo counties auswered to the assessment this year. Others bad contributed liberally, some gave not at all. However, all salaries had been paid and all ex pecses mat. The balance on band Is not enough to boast of and the executive committee needs money with which to push the work this year. There was a tight over eleoting representation on the executive committee of tba general association. Mr. Hyatt and Mr. E. D. Smith are exctticio members, for Mr. Hyatt Is the treasurer. After some discussion and several ballots Mr. E. L. Archer and Dr. W. W. Ray were elected. Mr. Smith made a strong argument In favor of the holding corporation. The farmers who will not o >me into the association need no protection, and if they put their cotton on the market when the prices are below the association's minimum, this cotton could be bought up to tbe extent of 2,000,000 bales and could be held, along with the cottGn held by the association members, until their demand for prices should be met. To do this would require a capitalization of 9100,000,000, to be raised by members of the association subscribing to the capital stock 95 per bale on every bale they propose to raise. There oould be State and co jnty organizations, regu'arly oharfcerad, with regularly appointed buyers, eto. Mr. Smith denounced forcibly the action of Secretary Shaw iu wifchurawlag $100,000,000 from circulation in the summer. This had unsettled the money situation generally, but forced Wall street down upon Southern loans?and the cotton farmers had suffered. Mr. Archer disagreed with Mr. Smith. Tnls holding corporation should be organized without conneo tlon with the association. Furthermore, he believes the plan impracticable Mr. Iljatt briefly expressed his op position wnen he was called upon to speak, but ho stated that In Birmingham next week be will talk at length oil "How to Finance the Cotton Crop," the subject assigned him by the committee, Mr. J. E. Wann&maker made a startling statement. On a recent visit to barnwell he had bee i told that there are people in that oounty who are living in squalor, with poor shelter for themselves, less for their shivering animals and none for their farm implements. They buy their meat, even their cabbages and other vegetables. Why? Because they plant cotton, plant it blindly without thought of the future. He supposes that the same oondltlons exist in many counties. He opposes tbe "holding corporation," believing that It would be better to lulld warehouses and to continue the work of eduostlog the farmers to tho appreciation of the netd for dtversl 11 cation. Mr. MoBrids took the view that the work suggested by Mr. Wannanotker Is that of Glemson college or cgrioultursl societies, and that the cotton association bss a broader tleld. It should promote organization and co-operation along the line suggested by Mr. Smith. OITOSKD TO LIKN LAW. After selecting the delegation to thSjBlrmlngh&m convention, the convsntlon authorized President Smith to name the members of the executive committee. He seleoted tbe following: K Molver Williamson of Darlington. R. Mayes Cleveland of Marlotta, Greenville oouuty. B. F. Keller of Cameron, Orange burg oountv. It. M. Pegues of Kollook, Ohestortteld county. W. D. Bryan of Taft, Williamsburg (ouaty. The following resolution wag olTsr ed by Mr. Gregg on behalf of the Fior enoa eaunty delegation: "Resolved, That the asssooiatlon appolut a committee to memorialize the general assembly to repeal the law known as the lien law for supplies." This was voted on without di60usslon as these are practical farmers and know what the law Is. There was opposition, but tbe motion prevailed and the following were ?p pointed by the chair to memorialize the legislature: Walter Gregg of Florence, B. F. Keller of Cameron, W. M. MoBrldo of Florenoe. The following were elected delegates to the Birmingham convention: W .1 niinninirtiam W .1 Mnnra 10. D. Hodge, A. M. Ooker, W. W. Bruce, Dr. 11. II. Smith, J. W. McCown, VV. F. Whittle, J. A. Peterkln, 0. E Spencer, E. D. Smith. J. M. Major, II. M Pegues, E. M. Williamson. It 1h related that a distinguished Greenwood lawyer says that in his county gambling is the highest form of crime. It was a Greenwood delegate, Mr. W.J. Mocre, who introduced the following: "Resolved, by the South Carolina division of the Southern Cotton association, That we condemn and disapprove of the dealing In what is commonly known as 'futures,' being Injurious to the morals of our peonle and entailing great linanoial loss on them. "Itasolved, further, That we earnestly hope and believe the legislature of South Carolina will enact suoh laws as will prohibit exchanges and buoket shops from being operat ed In this State." This was adopted without discussion. Mr. Smith offered the following resolutions, which were adopted: "Resolved. That this convention recommend to tbe Birmingham convention the advisability of each oounty appointing a soiling ^nd tlnancial agent, autnoiized in writing, signed by the individual members, au sole agent to sell the cotton of the local ashoolation at a price not less than that agreed upon by the national association, and to give eaid agent the power to negotiate loans, tlx the rate of interest, storage aud insurance charges." This is a very important resolution, for it gives form and purpose and business objective to the association. The session on Wednesday night was an experience meeting, at which the delegates exchanged ideas mutually heloful. Iiion Causes Paulo. At Toledo, Ohio, while the Bostook Animal Oirous was giving its matinee performance at the OollBeum building, Trainer Harry Ray was attacked and seriously lrjured by & lion named Charlie. The lion, which had been performing, sprang upon him, bearing him to the iloor and immediately the audience was panic stricken. The beast grabbed Ray by the arm while on the floor and laid with his body over tbe trainer's prostrate form. Ray with bis free arm picked up bis revolver which be had dro >ped on the 11 Dor when he fell and fired several shots into tbe face of tbe enraged beast, who thon let go of bis arm and seized the man in the side. The two attendants, Miller and Cunningham, sprang to the traps of the safely capo door and opened them, admitting into the dsns the other lions used in the act. This oaused the animal to release Ray, and two trainers Darned Galland and Joy at once rushed into the arena and drove off the beast. An Obieot Lesion, The democratic vote In Illinois in 1900 was 503,061. That was when tbe party stood for a positive and progressive democracy. In 1902 Mr. Hopkins was chairman of the state oommltteo and conduotcd the camI nr.l^n. Tin d?irinnnrAt in vnt? t.hnt. wxs only ;Joo,925. In 1904 Mr. Sullivan beet mo a mombsr of the national committee, and hi and Mr. Hopkins controlled the state organization. That year the democratic vote fall to 327,000 notwithstanding the fact that it was a presidential campaign. In 1900 Hopkins-Sullivan lnlluence still controlled, and the democratic vote fell to 271.984. Here was a falling off of 231,077 In six years?a loss of almost fifty per oent. In the language of The Commoner "how long will it take that aort of party management to build up a democratic party in the state of Illinois? Is it not about time for the rank and file of the party to briug the Illinois organization into harmony with the demooratlo voters?" a STANDS BY HIM.: 1 < Texas Senator Speaks on the } Foraker Resolution as to i ! COLORED SOLDIERS ' i Performance in the Brownsville Affair. After a Brief Response the Ohioan Agrees to Allow Matter to Go Over Until Monday. Soon after the senate met today Senator Foraker's resolution providing for an Inquiry by the senate Into the discharge of the negro troops of the Twenty fifth Infantry on aooount of the Brownsville, Tex., oplsode was laid before the enate and Senator CulberHori made an address on the subject. lie ?a1d that he would have kept quiet but for the fact that great ; Id justice had been done the people of Brown&vllle. ( Mr. Culborson said that the oonduot , of the negro soldiers had hcen very irrltatlog to the Brownsville people and especially so to the women. He related that on Aug. 4, last, the day before the "ahootlcg up" of the town j a criminal assault had been committed by one of the soldiers on the wife of & reputable clt /en and said that no arrests nan oenn maao for the crime. Mr. Culberson defended Capt. McDon- , aid of the Texas Rangers, to whom , Mr. B'oraker had referred because of , MaJ. Blooksom's reference to him as & man who was "so brave that he would not hesitate to charge hell with a buoket of water." Mr. Culberson , said that he knew MaJ. Blooksom to be a gentloman. , DEFENDED TEDDY'S COURSE. In defending President Roosevelt 1 for his dismissal of the troops Mr. 1 Culberson said the faot that the troops were negroes had nothing to do with their dlsoharge. Confusion as to the legal questions Involved was, he said, responsible for the statement that the president had no authority to make the dlsoharge. The president's const!* , tutlonal authority and the authority given him by the article of war pearly covered the oaso and made his action legal, he declared. He oontended that discharges for criminal offenses are also discharges made to effect punishment. Mr. Culberson said that there was a distinction between "diiohargo without honor" and "a dishonorable discharge." In the former case the president could exercise his discretion as he had done in this instance, while a dishonorable dlsohare oould only oe made as the result of a courtmartlal. lie Instanced several oases to sustain his position. To oit&b'lsh the motive actuating thfi neurro soldlwrH in ni-A*.rlnar t.ho ml. ? ? ? ? " -n lagcd disturbances, Mr. Culberson read resolutions reoently adopted by negro citizens of Boston, which admitted that the soldiers "shot up" the town and said they "were determined to do for themselves what the uniform of their country would not do?proteot them from Insults and punlBh at the same time the authors of their mis* ery CAUSED WAVE OK MER11IMUNT. Disclaiming any partizanship for the president, Mr. Culberson created a wave of merriment by saying: "I have nothing to do with the president in this matter. I oare nothing about him. My personal relations with him are about as cordial as those of the senator from Ohio" (Mr. Foraker), In all falrnesB, Mr. Culberson sala, the country ought to know that the report made to the president was reliable* After readiDg muoh of the testimony taken before the Brownsville grand jury, Mr. Culberson drew the conclusion that the fact that no indictment was returned was not an evidence of the weakness of the ease, but rather of the fairness of the people of Brownsville, who did not wish to do injustice to the innocent. The evidence, he contended, proved beyond doubt that the shooting was done by the negro soldiers, but failed to identify the guilty ones. Ho concluded his speech by a briof reference to the negro question in general, saying it had existed from the early history of the oountry down to the present time and still continued to be the most important and the must dangerous question whioh confronts the American people. He refered to the gro wth of this question leading to the Uivil war wherein nearly a million white men lost their lives. Wednesday, he said, the condition of the blnok race with its ages of slavery, Its ignoranoa and poverty, exolted the deepest sympathy of the great body of the white people of the South. STILL TIIK GREATEST PROBLEM. I %- _ - ?? uut," xie eonunueci, ' in spite 01 the past, with its cocfllots and saorlflccs, sorrows and destruction of life end property, this problem is still the greatest with which we have to deal. It involves labor, eduoation, suffrage, social order, civil liberty self-government and the Integrity of the white race. The end no man oan see. Southerners feel deeply and profoundly on this raoe problem and its ultimate soi lutlon. i Senator Foraker at onoe took the floor, remarking that it belittled the i present question to make it e vehicle for dlsouMlng the race question. He lid not profoie to dliouai that quet- 1 Hon or tbe merits of the Brownsville iffalr. lie wanted his resolution adopted, whlcb would Insure further In- t lulry, and his present purpose was but to defend himself regarding the criticism charged against him for mentioning Capt. McDonald. 1 Commenting on Senator Culberson's itatement that Senator Forakor's apeeota two weeks ago had offended oertain Texans and had rnfleoted particularly upon Capt. MoDjnald, the Ohio senator said he did not know ] what McDonald resented unless It was , the term "gentleman." . % ] gait. Mcdonald's kkskntment. Mr. Foraker read from tbe Clnolr- ' nati Enquirer au acoount of Oapt. Mc- 1 Donald's resentment, commenting ' freely as he progressed. Among ether t things, Senator Foraker said: "1 i don't know why Capt. McDonald would < charge 'bell with one bucket of water,' t unless It was that he had no other use j for the bucket cf water." < Mr. Foraker concluded his remarks i by putting the Interviews in Tbe < Record and asking for a vote on the 1 resolution. < Senator Culberson replied brh tl y bv 1 saying tbe country was to be fellol- < t&ted on the fact that the Ohio sena- | tor had turned his attention to derls- 1 ion of a captain of Texas Rangers. An amendment was offered by Sen- ; ator Lodge to contlne tbe Inquiry by ( tbe committee on military affairs to a i question of faot in regard to tLe oon- : duct of the negro soldiers, in that it j recognized that the order was issued < by the president "In the exercise of ( bis constitutional authority as com* < maader in-chief." This would have 1 the effect of presenting an investlga- 1 tion of the constitutional questions j Involved in the president's order dis- t missing the troops Mr. Lodge asked that the further dihcusslon of the 2 question be postponed until Monday < on account of his inability to speak to* i day because of a sore throat, Al- i though Mr. Foraker had previously ob* . Jected to deferring consideration of 1 the resolution he at onoe consented to 1 the postponement when Mr. Lodge 1 plaoed his request upon personal ] grounds. Upon motion of Senator Hale the resolution will be taken up ! on Monday next and pressed to a conclusion. The senate then went into executive session and at .'J.55 p. m, adjourn- 1 ed until Mondav. 1 Fort Fisher's Aiinlyermy. 1 Fort Fisher's anniversary, January 15, may well be made the occasion of a reunion of the blue and the gray survivors of the commands which participated. The battle was a not Roio one in many ways and n&d it occurred at an earlier period In the war it would be more oonspiouous in the 1 pages of history. When the post fell all eyes were centered upon the fate of Poterburg and Richmond, whore Grant and Lee contended for the mastery from June, 1864, to April, 1865. The Spartanburg Journal says in a strategic sense Fort Fisher was an outpcst of the Confederate Vine on James River. It guarded the principal ohannel for the entry of foreign supplies to the Confederacy and also offered protection to Lee's route of communication with the south Atlantic ooast. The Federal attack was desperate in the extreme and the Confederate defense most heroio. Orangeburg County bore a gallant part in that heroio defense, The prlnolpal leader of the Confederate forces in the battle at Fort Fisher, Colonel Lamb, is still living. Several of the Federal generals survive, notably Gen. A. A. Ames, leader of & division; Gen. N. M. Curtis, who led the brigade which first forced the palisades, and Gen. Galusha Pennypaoker. The naval bomhardment of the fort was one of the fiercest on record. The fortress was constructed of sand and logs and proved so formidable against ship's tire that the plan was adopted as a model for students in military engineering. One of the thrilling incidents of the battle was the oharge of a Federal naval brigade along tha sand beach up to the walls of the fort. Admiral Robley D. Evans, then a subordinate otttoer, was a participant in this column. Many of the soldiery In the garrison were North Carolinians, and it Is significant of the growing spirit of smlty among old foes that the public men of the state have been foremost in inviting combatants of 1865 to a fraternal handsbake on the ruins of this famous stronghold of the Oonfedferaoy. Wreck on Union Paoilio. Union Pacific Overland Limited and Los Angeles Trains Noa. 2 and 8, both bound for Omaha, Neb., had a collision Monday night at Brule Station, twenty miles west of North Platte. The Los Aegeles train crashed into the observation o&r in the rear of the Overland Limited. Twenty-five | to thirty passengers were in the ob sorvauonoar ana one, ra. w.

Thursday Harvev's attorney was notified by Governor Vardaman that the negro's sentence had been commutted to imprisonment for life. He hurriedly called up the Issaquena sheriff, but the latter did not reaoh the telephone until three minutes after the drop fell. Harvey was sentenced to be hanged for the murder of a negro named Pete Bromo, in Maroh last. WnJiCR and murder VTTEMPTEI) BY *OKMb'H SOUTHKHN HA1LWAY FIREMAN. Diabolical Crime Was Fruitrated by the Runaway Train Running Into Two Engines. The passenger train that left BranchviUe Friday evening, Decern ber 28, had a narrow escape from being wrecked by a runaway train sent Dut from Augusta by Royal Sego, a former fiieman of the Southern Railway, for tbat express purpose. It teems that Sego had some grudge against Engineer O iver Ewing, who was running the engine attaohed to the passenger train, and In order to Injure him opened the throttle of an snglne In tr.e railroad yard at Augusta and started It on its errand of destruction, thereby ImperriliDg the life of ivery prsseDger as vsell as the srew of the paasenger train. The following account of the attempted srime, which we t*ke from the Au Kusta Chronicle of last Friday, will be read with interest: Rbra> Sego, a white man atout 30 rears old, was arrested yesterday by Donsfcable Kelly and taken to Magistrate Nurnburger's otllce, betweeu 2.30 and 3 o'oloclr, charged with having opened the throttle of the engine which pulled the run away tra'n out }f the Southern coach yard last Friday night and which was only prevented from wrecking the inoomlug passenger train by colliding with en {lues 3045 and 1404 on Washington itrpet, between Broad aud Reynolds. Sugo Is a former tlrcman of the Southern road, and be olaims that the sompany owes him to the amount of 133.00. He was arrested on a warrant iworn out by the railroad company, fudge W. 11. Numburger being the magistrate, the evidence warranting the issuance of the paper having been furnished by M. ?. Boyett, an employe of the road. Boyett 3tates that a day or two ago Sego came to him and stated that he wa? gullly of opening the throttle of Southern engine No. 1752, the one which puileu tu3 train of two oars through tbe heart of Augusta. Sego staled that if the two freight engines hud not< been on the track at the tin.o of tbe collision, he would ' sure have got O'lver E*ing." Oliver Ewing ix the engineer who was pulling No. 17 last Friday night, the passenger train from Branchvillo, and which train would have collided with the runaway engine and coaches, if it bad not bten for the presencs of the two freight engines in the path cf the runaway. B yett also states that Sego endeavored to nftrhiia.de him to ica'at In derailing at.other train, but tie says that be refused to acoept. tba fellow's vlllanous invitation. Y/hen the authorities of the. road heard cf the statements which had been made to Hoyett, and investigation was held, r od the arrest of ^cgo waa the result, lie w&b arraigned before Magistrate Nurnberger shortly after 3 o'olock, but In default of bond he was committed to jail. When making his statement to Judge Number, Sego absolutely do nled that he had made any statements whatever to Boyott, and vehemently claimed that he was Innocent. Boyett says, on the contrary, that Sego even went so far as to describe his manner of starting the engine, saying that be sneaked up on th3 engineer's side of the oab, pulled the throttle half way open, and then jumped off. He then ran into one of the nearby trainmen's shaoks, and the suspicions of the man inside were aroused, but he paid no especial attention to the matter. Ocnsice* lng the fact that the charge is one of the most serious which can bo brought agalnet any man, It Is generally thought that, In o&Se he Is proven to be guilty, he will received a very he^vy sentence. It is aaid that Sego Is at tiroes slightly demented. Som b people are bo eager to get to orown wearnlng that they skip the oross bearing.
