Washington A pril 1I.-Ti,ol Unit, I States Senate hIs spoken. Its vol, is for war-war until the saffron flag of Spain shall have been furled in the Western hemisphero and furled forever. Its voice, too, is for the in dependence of the infant republic of the Gem of the Antilles. "Free Cuba and the in3ependence of the island republic!" was theshib boleth of the Sonate throughout the four days of debato which ended to night. While the vote wias decisive, it i3 just to say that it a as not final. Notices of discord-alimost forobod ing in their tone-were sounded. This foreboding was not duo in anN sense to anxiety about the result of the impending conflict. It was prompted by a fear lost, if tho netion taken by the Senate should ultimate ly be accepted as final, this govern ment night becomo involved in com plications that in future years would provo serious. At 8:10 o'clock tonight the Davis resolutions-those reported fron the committee on foreign relations, amended so as to include the recog nition of the republic of Cuba--were passed by a vote of 07 to 2 1, as a substitute for the resolution adopted by the House of Representat ives. All day ling the contest wNvged with an earnestne:.s, energy, ability and eloquence sildom egnalled, even in the Senate of the United States. F rom I 'clock tiis imorninlg until the won)-At of thw final vote the in teusitv of tha interest did not abate for an i:-.stant.

Then Mr. Jones mado suggestions & for the Stato ticket from the commit- 1 tee as follows: For Governor, Joel R lnuson, Williamsburg; Liouten- a] anut Governor, L. D.

Ho t wias called upon to pro- n 3ide and Mr. Brunson retired. The ii iuggestions were then taken up sep- C arately and the committee's recomi mendations wer: agreed upon with- s out debate, except that Prof. Shocut 0] thought the teachers should be rec- b ognized in the nomination of a can- t didate for Superintendent of Educa Lion. He said this abRolutely with- bi out refle etion on Mr. Smith, not even I knowving whether or not he was at a for the teachers. Mr. Smith said his record was a made, and he fought for Prohibition, C and he was quite willing to retire. C lie wanted his position known. His position is thaL a more equitable ad. b~ justment of the school fund could a and should be brought about. He ti wanted to protect the masses, and d would not recede from his position.8 He taught for two years in Wofford n Collego fitting school. It is false hi that he is opposed to highemr educa- n~ tion. Il wantedl to be0 distinctly h b undler?tood that ho did not consider himself qualified, but he felt a deep. f, seated purpose to do his full duty. a Mr. Jones said that as ho under- nl stood it Mr. Smith was not opposed to anmy inistitutioni, and the Convou tion would do itself honor to say it favored every higher educational mn institution. Th'le suggestion of Mr. Smith was endorsed. The full ticket as suggested wvas then enmdorsed, and stands for Pro hibit ion. Mr. Boggs moved that the execu tive conmmittoo to be elected fill any vacancies on the ticket. T1he Rev. Mr. Moffett, of Chester, offered the following: lesol vedl, That the dolegations from eaich county name a suitaolo marn from their county to act as county chairman. That the said charirmen be0 elected b)y thin Conven tion). TJihat thme said county chair men ho charged with the duty of thoroughly organiz~~iing their re spetive counties for campaign pur poses. Thaut county chairmen be chargedl with the further duty of having a full ticket for the General Assoerbly put in the field from their respective counitiesm who are pledged to Prohibition. Mr. Brnoson and the other nom ineos wore presented to the Conven thon. Mr. Birtirsorn thanked the Conven tion anmd said ho felt his inability to do justioo to the cause, bnthe yielded to no one in his devotion to the ause. All should go into the fight o win, if not in one year, in ten ,oars. Those reforms destined to be of pixd must be of slow growth, and so ..has oon with Prohibition. The tronger the organization, the shorter ud sharper the action. The Pro. ibitionists with the strength of iante and with right on their side bould win and can. The forces iust be combined. Go in to win, a win we shall and win we will. made a pretty speech and closed ,ith an incident from the Confed, rate battlefield. Mr. Brunson's re iarks were applauded. Mr. Smith, of Stunter, thanked 2e Convention heartily for tho onor. Mr. Thonna Borry, of Chester, omine for railroad commissioner, W8o heartily thanked the Conven on.
