Showing Tlml Mis leather, \. Cliris

of Xojjro Company, Although
Coin missioned to Do So.
Senator Neils Christenson of lleaufort
has written the following letter
to the editor of the l'ee Dee Advocate.
It and the statement enclosed are
self-explanatory:
Dear Sir:?In the public mind susnieinnH

father's character by reason of certain
messages of the governor. The
connection in which this matter was
brought up by the governor, and the
way it was phrased and misstatements
made about, leave an impression
with the public that is ourageoutly
unfair. So I am taking the
liberty of sending you a copy of pages
of the Senate Journal giving the record
as it now stands. If you feel
that you can use my statement in
executive session 1 believe it would
help to undo a wrong.
Trusting that I am not trespassing
too far on your attention, I am,
Very truly,
Neils C'hristenscn
His Statement to the Senate.
Feeling that it would not be proper,
for mo to be present during this dis-,
oussion of a matter so personal to me
T absented myself from the latter
part of your executive session. Hut
f am told that you have taken action
to vindicate the rights and dignity of
this Senate, a body greatly respected
by the people of South Carolina, and
to vindicate me, for which 1 am deeply
grateful.
It now becomes my place to speak
for mine own.
Beneath tho shade of a great oak
in a Beaufort grave yard, lies the
body of my father. To-night his
name is hold up for the scorn of the
oeonlf; of this SlnUi 1?V 5?u (Vni'ornnr
r ? - .
and for a thing ho did not do. My,
father was a Union soldier. If it had
beeomo his duty to lead "charges
with negro troops against white soldiers
of the Southern Confederacy,"
he could have done nothing else as a
soldier. But that duty did not become
his. He entered the army a
foreigner hardly ablo to speak this
language, and for bravery 011 many a
bard fought battlefield ho was promoted
to be a corporal, to be a sergeant,
to be a captain. He received
a commission putting him in command
of a negro company 011 a distant
field. But his orders were modifled,
and lie was assigned to other
duty.
Tho insinuations in this messago
were voiced shortly after the dispensary
investigation by IT. II. Evans in
Newberry, and published in a daily
paper. Confederate veterans in Beaufort,
my father being absent from the
State, published a statement protesting
against the attack and speaking
highly of his life in Beaufort. That
action of those Confederate veterans
is a part of my heritage.
I believe that 110 youth in this
State has grown up with feelings of
greater respect for the soldiers of tho
Confederacy than I have, and I got
them from my father. He taught 1110
to honor the Confederate soldier.
Kor four years he fought against the
armies of the South. For more than
thirty years after the war ho lived
in the South and did all a man could
in a humble way to build it up.
In my campaigns for the position I
now hold, all these facts were fully
discussed, and the people who are responsible
for my being here know all
about them. They have passed on
them. They \vlio knew my father
well, gray-haired Confederate veterans
and men whose forefathers lived
on that soil when it was roamed by
the Indians, voted for me and sent
me here to represent them.
Born in this State, I loved it as a
lad. But that love has grown very
deep and very strong these later
years as I have found its people ready
to accopt ino and mine without prejudice.
A people who can rise above
these sectional passions is a noble
people, and their State is a great
State. It seems a splendid thing to
me that my humble political career
could embody tho' evidence of this
fine trait of South Carolinians. She
forgets tho bitterness of tho past, and
cherishing its ideals of sacrifices ioi
conviction, lives in the present anc
! in the future.

she was subjected to the experience
of hearing that other message of tin

?Quarantine of the lauircns Itonrd
W as entirely I'nevpected.
The board of hcaltli of I.aniens
Sunday passed a quarantine order
against passenegr trallie from Newberry
and Newberry County. This step
was taken after an investigation bad
been made of the small pox situation
in the neighboring town by two members
ol tbe health board, one of whom
is a physician.
While the situation is said to be
much improved in tbe city of Newberry,
it is claimed that no loss than
four hundred cases can be found in
the county. There is only one case at
I.aureus, says the news report, so far
as is known, and the patient has been
isolated. Tbe city and county oflleors
have tbe matter of handling the quarantine
regulation in band and the order
will be strictly observed.
\ dispatch from Newberry to
Tbe News and Courier says tbe fact
that I.aureus bad quarantined against
Newberry created some surprise.
There are a number of cases of smallpox
in Newberry and in the county,
as there are all over South Carolina,
but there is no epidemic of tho disease
and all cases in tbe city are under
quarantine. Nothing lias been
published about it because it is gen
i ,\! I \ liiwlcrklonil tlmi n?> .iio........
scattered all over tho State.
To be exact, Healt h Officer Adams J
a \ s lliat 1 hero nro at present only ,
onrioMi cases in Newberry, and tliatj
se\eial ol these are in one family, and
and all on tho city limits. All tho
rases are among negroes, except 3.
Since the 1 31 h of January, 15)13, there
have been sixty-nine cases in Newberry
and no deaths. Tho people are being
vaccinated and the trustees have
been rigidly cnloreing the rule as toj
school childien and none are admitted
lo the public schools who cannot give ,
evidence of successful vaccination. ,
The general opinion at Newberry is
that Laurens wanted to keep a carnival
company from that place this
week and that the quarantine was put
on as an excuse to keep the shows
away. The fourteen cases art; convalescent
and will he discharged from
quarantine this weed:. There are a
number of cases in the county, but
just to what extent the disease provails
it is impossible to ascertain. In
the township in which Prosperity is
located it. was stated somo thno ago
that a school election had been called
off on account of tho prevalence of
smallpox. The county superintendent
of education states that about 75
per cent of the school children had
been vaccinated.

A snow storm said to rival In severity
the famous blizzard of 1887, rag
ed to tho accompaniment of zero
weather in the upper Hudson valley,
the Mohawk valley and tho northern
and western parts of New York State
all day Saturday, taking up many
smaller railroads and trolley lines
and paralyzing communication generally.
All mails were delayed. Late
Saturday tho fall of snow ceased in
many districts, only to he followed
by a return to the zero weather and
high winds which have had New York
State in their grip for the last four
days.
While the snowfall in the metropolis
wasj only 10 Inches, at other points
phenomenal falls for those sections
wero reported, and snow ranging
from 24 to 20 Inches in depth. Conditions
in New Jersey were almost as
had, though tho fall of snow was not
as heavy there, ranging from eight
to 12 inches. High waves Saturday
again attacked tho Soabright, N. J.,
peninsula, and placed it under two
feet of water, causing tho population
to seek safety on the mainland. Conditions
in Seabright, it was said, wero
worse for a time than in January,
when many buildings wero demolished.

l-'ariii Demonstration Work in tlir
Southern States (iel an Appropriut
ion of $:J78. IOO.
Chairman Lover of the Mouse committoo
on agriculture, Thursday
ompleted tho annual agricultural
appropriation hill. It aggregates
$18,04 7,000, exclusive of permanent
appropriations, an increase of $1)00,000
over last year's total. The hill
is accompanied by Hie most comprehensive'
report ever submitted by the
committee.
Many radical changes are proposed,
including reorganization of tin
weather bureau and preparation by
the secretary of agriculture of a plan
for reorganizing and systematizing
department work. Tho report sets
forth that the department is "now developed
to a point where its present
system of bureau organization has become
cumbersome, is not. as effectively
eincient as it should lie," and the
hill contemplates that existing bureaus
should he rearranged to cover
live or six main lines of work, such
as the research, rural organization,
Stato relations, weather and forest
services.
Tho bill appropriates $2.1,000 to
encourage agricultural development
of the reclamation projects through
demonstrations and advice to settlers.
An increase of $21,000 over the present
appropriation is provided for cooperation
with States in the protection
from fire of the forested watersheds
of navigable streams.
Tho elaborate Mount Weather observation
station, occupying eightylour
acres in the Itlnn WMcro
tains of Virginia, which has cost since
1 !?(>!> approximately $183,000, would
be virtually abolished by tho bill, the
secretary of agriculture being empowered
to sell or lease in whole or
in parr, and to maintain there only
an "ordinary" observation station, to
cost, not exceeding $1,000 a year. Tho
commit tee and the department hold
that the special work heretofore carried
on at Mount Weather can bo better
performed in the West.
To increase the benefits from national
forests, the bill would authorize
the secretary of agriculture to
rent or lease to responsible persons or
corporations, for not exceeding twenty
years, portions of ground for construction
of hotels, summer residences,
stores or other buildings for
recreation or convenience. The forest
service appropriations would totnl
$5,$543,265.
Provisions for attention to cost of
living problems is mado in several
items. For investigating the preparation
for market, handling, grading,
packing, freezing, drying, storing and
transporting of poultry and eggs, a
$50,000 appropriation would he
mado
Fifteen thousands dollars would he
provided for use in educating the people
on the value of fish as a supplement
to the meat supply, and to investigate
the handling of food fish.
Oysters and other shell fish also figure.
with an appropriation of $5,000
to investigate their packing, handling,
storing and shipping, in the
United States and border waters.
Tho controversy regarding a hoard
of experts to pass on pure food and
drugs is settled by a brief provision
establishing the right of the secretary
of agriculture "to employ and designate
scientific experts to make investigations
and net as hoards or committees
to report to him upon questions
arising in tho enforcement of
the pure food and drug law."

ITicnds of Itotli Candidates Assert
Confidence in Leaders.
The seven mondial, fight between '
Oscar W. Underwood, majority leader
of the national House of Representatives
and Congressman Richmond
Pearson Hobson, for tho Alabama 1
vacancy in tho United States Seriate
is drawing to a close. Tho deciding
votes in a campaign that has attract- ed
nationwide interest will be cast at 1
the Democratic primaries to be held
April G. The actual election of a
senator will not take place until November
4, but that will be merely |
a ratification of the choico made at
the primary polls.
Mr. Underwood has announced from
Washington that so far as per- I
sonal participation was concerned,
his campaign for a seat in tho upper
House of Congress already has end- ed.
Representative Hobson, on the 1

...... . iii>uu| i o van jriug iui >vum III''
personal campaign ho has boon waging
for many months during which timo
he lias spoken in nearly every I
county and town in the State.
The political adherents of the two
distinguished candidates are daily
making counterclaims of victory ~
Careful abservers, however, are inclined
to await the casting of ballots
boforo attempting to namo the successful
aspirant to the seat occupied
by the late Senator Joseph F. John- "
ston. (
Mr. Ilobson, once a striking ligure
in tin? navy and the hero of the Santiago
blockade, resigned from the service
shortly after the Spanish War in "
order to undertake a political career
He was quickly elected to the House
of Representatives in Washington
and has served several successive
terms. His eyes long ago, however. "
were fixed upon the Senate and he is
now finishing a painstaking campaign
to realize that ambition.
Whatever advantage may accrue
from actual presence in the thick of ~
the fight practically from beginning
to end, rests with Mr. Ilobson.
Friends of Mr. Underwood, however,
havo used the campaign activities of
Mr. Ilobson as a basis for charges of
habitual absenteeism from his duties
in Washington. One of these friends,
W. II. Parker, in his capacity as a
citizen and taxpayer, recently filed a
protest against Mr. Ilobson receiving |
his pay as a congressman during the
period he has been away from Washington.
Mr. Underwood spent his Christ- .
mas holidays in Alabama making a
covered as much ground as the limbriof
hut vigorous speaking tour. He
ited period of the holiday recess permitted
and then announced that ho
must return to his place in the House,
leaving his campaign in the hands of
his followers.
Typical of all latter-day political
ngms in mo south, the Hobson-1.
Underwood campaign lias been more
or less involved with the question of
State-wide prohibition. ISIr. Hobson
lias charged his opponent with having
been influenced by the "liqsor interests".
lie also has charged that
corporation influence was behind the
campaign of Mr. Underwood for the
presidential nomination in IP12. All
of these charges have been denied by
Mr. Underwood.
A short time ago there was a prospect
of several joint debates between
the two candidates and the State was
greatly excited over tho prospect. Mr.
Hobson has issued repeated challenges
from tho stump, but Mr. Underwood
announced that ho could not
indulge in any such campaign in
view of tho demands made upon him
in Washington.
The senatorial fight also is involved
more or leas with tho race for
governor of the State, which likewise
will Lc decided at tho April primaries.
There are five gubernatorial candidates
in tho field and tho campaign
has been more bitter than that waged
by tho Ilobson-Underwood followers.
Former Governor Coinor claims to be
making the race for governor againsl
the rest of tho field. It will be necessary
for tho successful candidate to
obtain a majority of the votes cast in
tho primary.
