order for one thousand bales of
cloth to be shipped to C. Von

This is not the first order for
goods to be sent to foreign coun

has made several shipment to
China, Japan, India' at d one or
more to Africa besides to sev
eral South American countries
The standard quality of the

is evidenced by the fact that it
always has orders ahead. The

on the order referred to above,
and the shipment will take
place as soon as the million
yards of cloth are made, which

The “Peace Conference."
Editor, Darlington News:
The good work in the matter
of establishing a court for arbi
tration for all differences be
tween the United States and
Great Britain goes bravely for
ward. The latest information
is,of a great National Confer
ence to be held in Washington.
D. C., on the 22nd and 23rd of
April next, to which have been
invited representative men
from every State and Territory
ia the Union. Your readers
cannot better inform themselves
of the nature and scope of the
undertaking than by reading
the resolutions and “calls” for
meetings in different sections of
the country and the names at
tached to these, so I enclbse
some of them for their enlight
enment. Undoubtedly the im
portance of the movement is
unequalled by any undertaking
of this, or many centuries, in
its magnitude, in its beneficent
character aud far reaching and
’permanent effects upon the pro
gress of civilization. This com
munity can congratulate itself
upon having held the first pub
lic meeting in the South to pro
mote the great end, now being
approved and aided by good
people everywhere.
The latest information from
England is that both people and
officials favor the movement
and so if America does her
part the system of arbitration
is a certainty. No effort should
be spared to have South Caro
lina properly represented at tke
coming Conference in Washing
ton. If many of those already
invited should fail to go, we
should be ready with the best
material to fill their places. It
is of the fii st importance to the
State to have such representa
lives there as will make her
showing in this crucial occasion
one that will be a credit to her
for all time.

A Serious Shooting.
A “shooting scrape” occuried
on the plantation of Mr. W. J.
Rogers, about two miles from
town, a few days ago in which
Steve Jackson shot and badlj
wounded Martin Watson, both
Colored. Dr W. J Garner was
sent for, and he extracted thir
ty-six small shot from a wound
in Watson’s left side. It is said
that Jackson’s wife, together
with’Watson and some others,
had been off sitting up with the
dead body of a friend, and while
she and Watson were going to
her home the morning following
they were met by Jackson, who
became enraged a* seeing hit-
wife in company with another
man. Without a word he re
turned to his home, got his gun
and went again to meet the
couple. When he reached them
he called out to Watson, telling
him to lookout that he was go
ing to shoot him, and thereupon
did so. Immediately after the
shooting Jackson “skipped,”
and up to this time has not been
captured.

A Nation*)'“Peact Conference.’ 1
Col. John J. Dargan has re
ceived the following letter sign
ed by a number of prominent
gentlemen interested in the
“Peace Conference” move :
ment:
“A widespread desire has]
been manifested both in the
United States and in Great Brit
ain for the establishment be
tween these two countries of a
permanent system of arbitra
tion.
“With a view to the accom
plishment of that end we hereby
invite you to attend a National
Conference, to be held in the
City of Washington, on Wed
nesday and Thursday,the 12nd
aud 23rd of April next, to ex
press the general conviction
that such a system of arbitration
should be tpeedily provided for
by the proper authorities and
with the most comprehensive
application practicable
It is earnestly desired that all
parts of the country should be
fully represented at this confer
ence, and, in order that this
may be assured, a similar invit
ation has been sent to represent
alive men. irrespective of party
or creed, in every State and
Territory in the Union—the
combined membership of the
two houses of Congress being
taken as a general basis of num
bers and apportionment.
“Assuming thai you share
our belief as to the importance
of the end proposed, we deem it
unnecessary in this communica
tion to enter into an extended
statement on the subject By
repeated acts, as well as by re
peated declarations, our Gov
ernment has appeared before
the world in advocacy of inter
national arbitation, as a rneas
ure conformable to our own in
teresls and the genius of our
institutions, as well as to the
cause of general justice and
civilization. To this effect pa
triotism, philanthropy, states
ship and religion have spoken
as with one voice.
“In confining the present
movement to the promotion of
arbitration between the United
States and Great Britain, we
are not unconcerned for the
wider application of the prin
ciple involved. But, taking in
to consideration the importance
and the value of practical re
sults, it has ssomed wise to con
centrate our immediate efforts
upon the attainment of a per
manent system between the two
great English speaking peoples.
“Earnestly trusting that we
may receive at an early day
your acceptance of the invita
tion hereby extended, wo re
main,” etc.
