Go!. J. I Wilson's Address. Delivered at the Unveiling of the Chickamauga Monument, May 27th. Mr. Chairman, Ladies and My Fel? low-Countrymen : Surrounded by mon? uments that testify to the valor and heroism of the soldiers of many of her sister States, South Carolina comes today to unveil her tribute to her cherished dead. A vast majority of that marshalled host who, nearly thirty-eight years ago, met on this historic field to join the battle have passed into the great unknown, and these who are left bear the indications that ere long they must cross the river and rest on the other side. Cheeks that then wore the bloom of youth now wear%the furrow marks of time. The elastic step has been changed to the slow gait of age, the locks that -were golden, brown, or jet have as? sumed a uniform color, they all wear the silver gray. But, notwithgstand ing the fact that the evidence of change is stamped on almost every? thing earthly, we rejoice to know that the love and the reverence that the true soldier has always evinced for his dead comrades has not' been affected "by the change of circumstances, or the ravages of time, and that no hearts in this assembly rejoice more in paying honor to the heroic dead than do the hearts of these old Veterans who, on their journey to their annual Reunion, have stopped by the wayside to partic? ipate in these ceremonies. For, next to the love they cherish for those en? deared to them by the ties of consan? guinity is the love they cherished for those who shared their trials and their dangers: and next to the reverence they feel for their sainted dead is the reverence they feel for the men who fell by their sides. Standing on soil made sacred by the blood of many of the brightest, best and bravest of America's sons, and in " the presence of some who wore the blue and others who wore the gray, and perhaps in the presence of some whose loved ones wore both the blue and the gray, I would Fnot utter one word calculated to rekindle the ani? mosity of the past or provoke the Jealousy of the present.. I would rather come in that spirit that breathes *' Peace on- the quiet dales, Made rankly fertile by the blood of men. Peace in the woodland, and in the lonely glen, Peace in the peopled vales. : ""Peace in the crowded towns, Peace in the thousand fields of waving grain, Peace on the highway and the flowery lane, Peace on the wind-swept dawn. '4Peace on the whirring marts, Peace where the scholar thinks, the hunter roams, Peace, God of peace, peace, peace in all our homes, And peace in all our hearts," 'While we rejoice that peace with all of its attendant blessings broods over this fair land of ours, and that the time has come when those who once met on this historic field in deadly strife can now meet in a spirit frater? nal and join with each other in honor? ing the memory of their dead heroes, regardless of the uniform they wore, or the flag beneath which they march? ed, it is not expected that either the North or South should come with '-hysterical apologies on -their lips for the part they acted on a field made sacred by blood that was precious alike to both sections. Were we to ?offer such apologies we would be false to every instinct of our nature, false to the . memory of those we have to honor and false to truth. We have simp-y come to honor those who be ievied they were right and had the courage to die for their convictions, leaving it to God and the future to determine whether they were right or wrong. Carolinians, you are here on a holy mission, you are here to honor the memory of your precious dead by erecting monuments to their memory. Emulating a custom as beautiful as it is old, and as sacred as it is beau? tiful, you come with granite from your own loved hills, and surround? ing it with the proud emblem of your State you declare to all tee world that your sons who fell on ? e battlefield of Chickamauga are w rthy of every honor that gratitude cnn pay to valor or affection bestow uj>on those whose memories are enshrined in your hearts. They are your sons "to the manor born.*' They came from every section of your State, from your rugged moun? tain heights to where the magnolia blossoms by the sea. They died to up? hold the flag you raised, they died to de? fend the cause you espoused, with their life's blood they sealed their devotion to the State, and by their death they illustrated your patriotism and vindi? cated yo ar manhood. 1 would like to speak of many of the gallant Carolinians who took part in tie engagement here, especially of the knightly Kershaw, who wore with .'?gnai credit, the uniform and the ermine of his State, of the chivalric Mandgault and the dashing Gist and other? who Kid our battalion in the fight. I would like to speak of the brave Elbert Brand, of Houle, and Hard, and others who went to their death charging against "'the Rock of Chi jkamauga. " They have all passed within the veil. Their names add JlSCrc to the history of their State, and they can justly claim as their n*ontt*nent?.l be*s the bitterest tears their country she is. But I realize the fact that it is especially fitting that one who forty years ago volun? teered as a private in the ranks should pay his humble tribute to those who stood behind the guns and whose ?names "save by some poor few" have 'been forgotten. History has preserv? ed and rightly preserved the names and the fame of those who directed the battle, but of the private soldier "Xo grateful page shall farther tell. Than that so many bravely fell, And we can only dimly guess What worlds of all this world's dis? tress, What utter woe, despair and death Their fate has brought to many a hearth. ' ' It is true their history has been written in blood across hearts of lov? ing mothers and faithful wives, but these loving mothers and faithful wives are fast passing away. Most of ? them even now, wear jewelled crowns j in that land whose streets are gold and gates are pearls. Let the memory of these now be cherished by their country. They are the heroes of a fallen cause. The cause for which they fought is lost, and perhaps lost forever. The flag beneath which they marched has been furled, and furled forever. Some of those who fell on this field carried that flag from your City bv the Sea to the rocky heights of Gettysburg and brought it back here to die beneath its folds. Some? times that flag waved amid the shouts of victory, sometimes it was shrouded in the g?oom of defeat and battle-scar? red, but thank God in their hands it was never permitted to trail in the dust of dishonor. The shaft we un? veil today may not be as imposing as some that surround it, but we have done what we could : it is the loving gift of loving hearts, and shall stand here as a sentinel proclaiming to all the living and to the generations yet to come that in life South Carolina's sons were faithful in death. END OF THE MEMPHIS REUNION. Building of the Battle Abbey at Richmond Soon to Begin. Will Meet in Dallas Next Year. Memphis, Tenn., May 29.-With all their work for the year finished noth? ing remains in the programme of the reunion of the Confederate veterans save the parade which will be held tomorrow morning, if there is no in? terference by the elements. There was a sharp little thunderstorm this evening and the prospect for tomorrow is not entirely favorable. The convention adjourned this eve? ning to meet next year in Dallas, Tex. Gen. John B. Gordon was reelected commander of the order without oppo? sition and the scene which followed the announcement that for one year longer he would preside over the work of the organization was touching. The old soldiers sprang to their feet and cheered the general with frantic energy. Delegates climbed upon their - chairs, made the building ring with their shouts and filled the air with their waving hats as they applauded him again and again. It was a min? ute or two before the general could master his emotion sufficiently to ex? press his thanks for the honor award? ed to him and to express his grati? tude for the expressions of good will wi"h which his reelection had been received. The convention has been memorable in aonther respect, and that is finally it has been decided that steps are to be taken for the erection of the battle abbey in Richmond. The work of erecting a memorial to the cause of the south has passed beyond the prelimi? nary stage and now the actual build? ing will be commenced. Within 90 days the members of the executive committee will meet in the city of Richmond for the purpose of complet? ing details for the commencement of the building and the laying of the cor? nerstone. The committee has in hand the funds to warrant the work, and from now on it is expected that there will be no more delay in the erection of the memorial. Peabody Scholarships. The president of the Peabody Nor? mal college has notified the superin? tendent of education, Mr. McMahan, that there are four vacant scholarships to be filled by appointment in this State. There were seven vacancies from this State, but the president of Peabody Normal College appointed Misses Mary V. Posey, of Union, and Anna C. Richardson of Summerville, and Mr. Robert L. Sanders of Ander? son, who are already at the institution, to fill three vacancies of the seven. There will be a competitive exami? nation in Columbia, Tuesday, July 23d. to fill the four remaining schol? arships. The following extracts from the regulations concerning these scholarships and the examina? tion will be of interest to those who wish to compete : A Peabody scholarship is worth $100 a year and the students' railroad ticket from his home to Nashville and retarn by the most direct route, and is good for two years. The qualifications for becoming a competitor for the scholarship are as follows : The applicant must not be less than 17 years of age. nor more, than 30: of irreproachable moral character: in good health : with no physical defects, eccentricities, or habits which would interfere with success in teaching: and must make a pledge of intent to teach for at least two years after graduation. Applicants will be examined on Eng? lish grammar and composition. United States history, geography, complete arithmetic, elementary algebra, two books of geometry 'Wentworth's!, Latin grammar (Beginner's Latin Book. Collar's Gate tb Caesar or equivalents. I " The examination rs open to all in the State and Mr. McMahan will fur? nish further particulars to all who are interested. THE POWERS WILL AGREE. Berlin, May 29.-The correspondent of the Associated Press learns authori? tatively that all of the powers have accepted Germany's proposal to with? draw Field Marshal Count von Wal dersee from China and surrender the chief command. In German cirlesthe British propo? sition that China pay the indemnity by issuing bonds making the interest and sinking fund payments yearly thereon is now regarded as certain of being accepted. Perhaps the accept? ance will lie unanimous. Germany's contingent remaining in Pe Chi Li, it is learned on authority, will be something over 4,000. The officials here deprecate the idea that Germany has any private scheme in view in keeping so many men in China. The troops are only staying there as a guaranty of the fulfilment of the peace conditions. ? Philadelphia. May 30. A rowboat containing a merry party of eight young persons was swept over Flat Rock dam in the Schuylkill river this afternoon and seven of them, five girls and two boys vre re drowned. BOOKER WASHINGTON APPEALS To Alabama Democrats to Leave the Negro a Vote. Montgomery, Ala.. May 23.-Booker T. Washington in behalf of his race today presented to the constitutional convention an appeal for conservative action. The address reminds the con? vention that the negroes came here against their will but hav? been bene? fited, trained and Christianized. They did their duty in the civil war and in the Spanish war. They have ceased for 20 years to be an offensive element in politics. Leading members of the race have persistently urged the ne? gro to learn to trust the white man. For these men this is a crucial time. The negro pays some direct taxes. He pays much more indirectly through his labor. He is in the main a pro? ducer of wealth and generally content? ed and law abiding. Already the emi? gration agent and exodus associations are at work on the negro's fears that his citizenship and schools will both be taken away. The relations are now reasonably satisfactory between the races. Anything that will unsettle the negro now, when he is settling down to thrift and comon sense, will injure both races. The address pleads that all incentive for right and useful living be not withdrawn from the young negro. It concludes : "Any law which will merely change the name and form of fraud or can be interpreted as meaning one thing when applied to another will not in our opinion, improve our present conditions, but may unsettle the peace and thrift of our people and de? crease the wealth and prosperity of our country. " The leading feature of the suffrage clause of today by ex-Gov. Jones is that which denies the right to vote to "any person who shall hereafter be guilty and convicted of selling his own vote or bartering the vote of another, in any legal election or in any pri? mary, caucus or convention held to nominate persons or public officers or to elect delegates to any primary, or convention, or who shall make or aid in making any false count, certificates or returns as to the result of such election, primary, caucus or conven? tion, or who shall thereafter carry concealed weapons and be convicted thereof." On the desks of ali the members is an address by Senator Morgan and copies of suffrage clause which he has prepared for the consideration of the convention. The address is designed to support the clause. Sena? tor Morgan's plan is simple. Nobody but a white man shall hold office. A court of three registrars is pro? vided for each county and these have absolute power to determine the quali? fications of every voter except that an appeal from its decision lies to the circuit court. The registrars are elected to start with by the courts of the county com? missioners/* but after the first term of four years to be chosen by the people. The real feature of the plan is in the provision that only white men shall hold office. The registrar plan is similar to the one in Mississippi, except that the courts of registrars have a much wider discretion. FROM THE WIRES. Washington, May 30.-The train bearing the President and Mrs. Mc? Kinley and the party accompanying them on the tour through the west ended its journey here at 7:30 o'clock this morning, exactly on schedule. Mrs. McKinley was removed to the carriage in waiting and driven slow? ly to the White House. She looked pale and worn, the natural result of the grave ordeal which she recently has passed. Montreal, May 30.-Speaking at a lurlcheon tendered (in his honor M. Jules Siegfried, the'French statesman now visiting this country, said Presi? dent McKinley told him in a recent interview that he was no longer an ultra-protectionist. The United States had reached that period in its history when it became necessary to go out into the world and secure markets and the necessity for heavy protection had largely disappeared. Americus.

Campbell and soon spread to the large two-story building occupied by A. Wicover and to the two-story store and dwelling of Mrs. A. J. Godbold. At one time it seemed all that part of the town would be burned, but by heroic work on the part of a few the fire was confined to the three buildings. Tacoma.

He was born in 1852. A SOUTHERN EXAMPLE. It has been rather fashionable in some quarters to speak patronizingly or contemptuously of southern poli? tics, as a thing not to be taken seri? ously. But occasionally an incident occurs that teaches us that there are some things in which the north might well take pattern from the south. For instance, the two senators from South Carolina have just resigned to submit their differences on party policy to the judgment of a state pri? mary. One of them has just begun the term, which would not expire un? til 1907: the term of the other would run until 1903. Consider for a moment what this means. Take first the light it throws upon the methods of senatorial elec? tions in South Carolina. We know how a senator is elected in Pennsylva? nia. When an aspirant there has " landed a senatorship he feels that he has secured a valuable piece of proper j ty. _ If you suggested that he should resign it to see whether the people ap? proved of his policy he would feel as Pierpont Morgan would feel if he had secured control of the Northern Pacific and somebody should advise him to throw the stock on the market to see whether he could get it back again. The only northern incident of the past generation at all parallel to the action of Senators Tillman and Mc? Laurin was the resignation of Conk ling and Platt in New York. But that was a quarrel over spoils, and when the senators resigned they thought they controlled the legslature and had only to instruct it to send them back. They found to their surprise, that the power that had the spoils to distribute nacl more influence in that legislature than they had. In the case of the South Carolina senators the quarrel is over party principles, and the verdict will be rendered by the voters of the party in the whole state. One of them has sac? rificed six years and the other two years of assured service for the sake of giving the people a chance to make this decision. There will be no Quay and Platt campaigning in South Carolina. The issues will be thrashed out by open, honest argument, and decided accord? ing to the thoughtful judgment of the citizens. It will be such a campaign as the State has not seen since the civil war, for the questions that divide the parties will be brought up and discussed under conditions that insure freedom of debate and a fair decision. ' While the whole contest is nominally within the democratic party it really involves the question whether South Carolina shall have one party or two. Senator McLaurin is so friendly to the administration and its policy that the friends of Senator Tillman do not recognize him as a democrat. If he can win in the primaries, or even de? velop marked strength, the political solidity of South Carolina is likely to disappear.-New York Jonurnal. Oil in Louisiana and Tennessee. j New Orleans, May 29.-An oil gush ; er of mighty proportions was brought j in today according to a special dis ! patch, fifteen miles southeast of ? flouma, La., forty miles west of New ? Orleans. \ Jamestown, Team, May 29.-An oil gusher is reported to have been tapped rcear the Kentucky line, 20 miles north of Jamestown. Is rs the second rapid flawing well recently located in that section. Conference About Cuba. Washington, May 30. -An important conference on Cuban relations took place at the Wbite House this after? noon. There were present with Presi? dent McKinley, Secretary Root, Sena? tor 0. H. Platt, chairman of the sen? ate committee on relations with Cuba, and Senator Spooner, of Wisconsin. For more than a noter and a. half the situation in Cuba was considered and when the conference broke up no determination had been -reached. It is expected that the whole matter will be brought before the- cabinet tomor? row and possibly will be further dis? cussed with those who have had much to do wih shaping.

The State Superintendent of Educa? tion wishes the announcement made to all the teachers who> propose to attend the State Summer School at Converse that it is not enough for them to en? gage rooms, but they must also fill out the application to the Superintendent for enrollment in she Summer School. Otherwise the assignment to rooms will be cancelled. In admitting to the dormitory preference will to be given to th<* actual teachers who have enroll? ed themselves for study in the Sum? mer School. It is desired also that those teachers who will not board in the dormitory? and even those resident in Spartanburg city, will enroll them? selves with the Superintendent without delay if it is their purpose to attend the Summer School.
