RETAIL ?E8CHAWTS' ASSOCIATION. State Organteer Appointed-Active Cam? paign ia tfee interests of Retail Mer: enacts Ina?garaied, From the Daily Item, Jan*. 21. There will be a meeting of the Retail Merchants'- Association next week, the date and place of which the members will have timely notice It is the purpose of the association .to posh tho work for which it was organized with renewed vigor and the local associations throng h ont the State are ail alive to the importance of the movement. Mr. Walter S. Utsey, of St. Georges, has been appointed State Organizer, and he will begin at an early day an active canvass of the State for the parp?se of organizing associations in every town and village in the State. It is also desired to have every retail merchant in the State? those in the country, as well as those in the towns alOSliated with the association, and Mr. 4J$sey will visit all of them for the purpose of explaining the advantages that the retail merchants will derive ? 10m the association if they all unite with it and give it their hearty co Ojjeration. A garnishment bill has been intro? duced in the-Legis?ature at the request of the association, and it will probably become a law at this session. The law will be of great benefit to all mer? chants who extend credit to salaried people, as it will provide means for collecting debts that now cannot be collected by process of law. Another crusade that the association will inaugurate is against the whole? sale merchrnts and jobbers who sell to consumers and thereby injure the busi? ness of retail merchants from whom they also solicit trade. It is the de? termination of many members of the association to get the retail merchants to unite in an agreement to patronize no jobber who sells to consumers, and to have those who work tue retail field listed as retailers. The association has a big field of endeavor, and usefulness before it and the officers are now perfecting a plan of campaign that will accomplish re? sults that will be felt not only by its members but by tb ose who antagonize it and who have heretofore profitsd by the lack of organization and con- { cert of action among the retail mer? chants. THE WOODKA? BANQUET. The Anneal Banquet of Hollywood Camp the Most Largely Attended in Its History. $he annual meeting of Hollywood tJamp, Woodmen of the World was held in the lodge room in &s Masonic Temple with nearly . two hundred Woodmen, members of the Camp, which is one of the strongest and most progressive in the South ern jurisdiction, present. The oflkjers who are to preside over the Camp and j manage its affairs during 190? were inducted into omce the installation ceremonies being conducted in ampli? fied form by Past Consul Commander W. B. Murray. When tao installation had been con? cluded and all business of a routine nature disposed of, the Camp adjourn? ed to the Ducker & Bultman Hall where the annual banquet was served by the ladies-of the Baptist Ohnrch. Long tables- were laid the full length of the large hall, at which.there were places for the members oi the Camp and a few guests who had been in? vited io make merry with them. The ladies had prepared an elegant and substantial repast, the bill of fare in? cluding all of the substantials and deli? cacies that the season affords. Abundant provision had been made for tho large crowd and the Woodmen did ample justice to the viands set before then. So well pleased were they with the efforts of the ladies that they extended their thanks by a rising vote. Lt the conclusion of. the menu Mr. I*. I. Perrott who served as Toast? master proposed the following toasts and introduced the speakers who were to respond. Hollywood Camp?, Consul Command? er, C. M. Hurst.

Lay h a, of 1001 Agnes Ave., Kansas City, Mo., has for several years been troubled with severe hoarseness and at times a hard cough, which she says, "Would keep me in doors for days. I was prescribed for.by physicians with no no? ticeable results. A friend gave me part of a bottle of Chamberlain* s Cough Remedy, with instructions to closely follow the di restions and I wish to state that after the first day I could notice a decided change for the better, and at this time after using it for two weeks, have no hesitation in saying I realize that I am entirely cured.''

Isaiah 62, 1.--"For Zion's sake I will not hold my peace * * * nntil the righteousness thereof go forth as brightness * * In order to follow the inspired words of the Prophet Isaiah I find myself under obligation for the sake of Zion to defend the Zionist movement, of late, from an offensive attack made recently, on January 18, in Jewish Lecture Hall by Rev George Solomon, of Savannah, Ga., who continued in his sermon to approach the Zion move? ment with abhorrence, and warning his listeners to keep away from Zion? ism. Taking for granted one of Zang will's sayings that Zion is the only salvation for Judaism, and that with? out a national Zionist movement Juda? ism is about to cease its existence, i. e., therefore, according to his understand? ing Zionism means for all the Jews all over the world to return to Palestine 88 a means to save their Faith, their distinct Religion, from getting absorb? ed among other religions. So it is merely a fantastic idea, and it is that we here ic America are to deplore what ho calls Zionism, because no matter what our business occupation is or amongst whom our sociability happens to be, nevertheless we can Temain loyal to our Jewish faith. In hts passionate hatred to Zionism he had to limit his definition of Zionism as based on a pretence for the better terment for American Judaism which late Zionism never thought of it, in order to create a hatred for Zionism overlooking or ignoring the fact that Jewish misery abroad in these half civilized countries, who are deprived of most human rights and are becoming more oppressed from time to time. Is in such horrible state as to demand some means of j help which would bring on a perma? nent amelioration of Jewish misery in those countries. It certainly appeals to the human race throughout the world, apart from religious considera? tion, and further more so, it is a holy duty on those Hebrews in most en? lightened countries who .enjoy the blessings or God as being admitted to all privileges,' to co-operate in some general scheme to render assistance for Zion's cause which would greatly ^redeem those people from their op? pressors. Emigration to America or England, which was regarded by our Benevolent societies as a means of salvation can ro longer be considered as such since certain restrictions are already put on here on the immigration laws and are about to be restricted to a greater ex tenthere as well as in England. Now to find a home for millions of people when ' the old method of dis? persing them here and ' there is not only a failure in the end, but it has become how an impossibility, so the only scheme in solving th? question how to save the oppressed is to be di? rected-according to the Zionist pro? gram-in Palestine and Syria, a coun? try without a people, which has been desolated for eighteen centuries, since the destruction of the Holy Temple, to be returned to those oppressed peo? ple without - a country for the same period who are gifted with a divine power to stand innumerable persecu? tions and to outlive their persecutors. And to renew their v old home ona national basis, i. e., 1st, to proceed with negotiations with his majesty, the Sultan, as well as any of those governments who are interested iii Palestine, until we will finally succeed in getting Palestine as a legally au? thorized home for the oppressed Jews with their own municipal government under the suzerainty of the Turkish government ; then to settle those op? pressed people on Palestine soil as farmers and agriculturist?. This is the only means according to the pro? gram of Zionists, to settle the Jewish question all over the world forever. If only success would follow on this road, as we hope it will, as God helps those who help themselves, and so do the people, and as we were promised in Psalm 53: 7, "Oh that the salva? tion, ci Israel were come out of Zion * * * Jacob shall rejoice and Israel shall be glad."

Most of Wednesday's Session Oc? cupied in Listening to Senator Latimer. Columbia, January 20.-The House of Representatives, under the resolu? tion of last week, did not meet until noon today. The greater portion of the session was devoted to hearing the very admirable argument of Senator Latimer in favor of Government aid to the development of the roads in this and* other States. Mr. Latimer made a strong presentation in every way, and some members, who have been doubtful of the propriety and wisdom cf the Government in embarking in this new line of Government functioD, seem to be convinced that Mr. Lati? mer is working on the right lines. The evident purpose of Mr. Latimer's address was to so impress the General Assembly with the importance of his ! measure that during the progress of the session a resolution will be offered appealing to the Representatives in Congress from this State to support the good roads bill. It is doubtful if after Mr. Latimer's argument that there will now be any opposition to his plan of Government aid. There was a preliminary skirmish today upon the Toole fish bill and after some argument the bill was re? committed. Governor Heyward's special mes? sage, with reference to lynching was received and excited favorable com? ment. Notwithstanding this is the middle of the second week of the session, the senate found its calendar today still with few bills on it. There have been very few introduced. Today Senator Brice presented a memorial from the state temperance league praying for an amendment of the dispensary law in reference to vot? ing out dispensaries. A concurrent resolution was adopted to allow the Columbia female college to dispose o#> its buildings in this city. A charter was granted to the South Carolina immigration society. Senator Raysor introduced a bill which will make banks make their re? turns for taxation similar to textile industries and cotton oil mills, and that they shall be subject to supervi? sion of the state board of equalization as these industries are. Senator Butler withdrew a bill to revise county treasurers' salaries. Senator Von Kolnitz's bill to punish mischievous or malicious interference with fire and police alarm boxes was passed. The calendar was quickly disposed of. The resolution in reference tc elections was amended so that two visitors of the citadel to succeed C. S. Gadsden and W. W. Lewis shall be elected. The senate adjourned until tomorrow at. ll o'clock. Columbia. Jan. 21.-The chief inter? est in the legislative session today cen? tered in the elections for various offices to be filled by the joint assembly. In fact there w?s little else done of im? portance. The assembly met at 11.15 and the first election was for associate justice of the supreme court, Justice Woods having been elected to fill an unex? pired term. He was the only nominee and his election was unanimous. The next election was for two direc? tors of the penitentiary. The follow? ing were nominated ; John O. Wingo, of Greenville ; P. T. Hollis, of Ches? ter; D. B. Peurifoy, of Saluda; W. B. Love, of York: W. *D. Mann, of Abbeville; W. D. Kirby, of Cherokee; W. F. Brown, of Oconee. The result of the first ballot was: Hollis, 31; Peurifoy, 66; Love, 54; Kirby, 23; Erown, 16; Wingo, 69. Total vote cast, 153; necessary to a choice, 77. There was no election' and a second ballot was ordered. Mr. Brown's name was withdrawn, as was also that of Mr. Kirby, leaving five in the sec? ond race. The result was; Wingo, 82; Peurifoy, 81: Love, 52; Mann, 53; Hoilis, 38. Total number of votes, 153; necessary to a choice, Ti. Messrs. Wingo and Peurifoy were elected, they succeeding Messrs. Lo^e and Mann. The next election was for state li? bar?an, the following being the nomi? nees: Misses La Borde of Columbia: Julia Tompkins, of Columbia; Mrs. J. A. Muller, of Lexington; Miss Annie V. Dacus, of Anderson. Only one bal? lot was necessary, Miss LaBofae, the incumbent being elected. The vote was Miss La Borde, 103; Miss Tom kins, 21 ?Mrs. Muller, 6; Miss Dacus, 26. Next came the election of a dispen? sary commissioner to succeed Mr. H. H. Cram. Senator Raysor, of Orangeburg, nominated]Mr. W. 0. Tatum, of Or augeburg. There were no other nomi? nations, and Mr. Tatum was unani? mously elected. The term is for two years. The greatest interest centered in the next election, that being for chair? man of the board of dispensary di? rectors. Representative Kibler nominated Mr. H. H. Evans, of Newberry. Representative Jeremiah Smith nominated Mr. John A. McDermott, of Horry. The vote resulted in the election of Mr. Evans, being 99 to 56. Two members of the dispensary board were next ballotted for. Sena? tor Harden nominated J. B. Wylie, of Chester; Senator Sharpe nomi? nated John Bell Towell, of Lexington ; Senator Hydrick nominated L. W. Boykin, of Kershaw; Mr. Glover nominated R. H. Walker, of Barnwell. The total vote cast was 154 : neces? sary to a choice, 78. The result was : Wylie 70, Towell 95, Boykin 81, Walker 62. So on the first ballot Messrs. Towell and Boykin were elected. The joint assembly adjourned until tonight, when trustees for various col? leges will be elected. When the joint assembly reconvened at 8 o'clock the first elections were the two trustees of the South Carolina col? lege. There were two positions on the board to be filled. Mr; Julian Mitch? ell of Charleston declined to stand for reelection. Mr. Robert P. Hamer, Jr., an alumnus of the college, and recent? ly president of the alumnus associa? tion, was elected in Mr. Mitchell's place. Mr. C. E. Spencer of York was re? elected on the board without opposi? tion. The next election was that of three trustees for Clemson college, according to the terms of the resolution. Mr. Jesse H. Hardin was renominated. Mr. G. Duncan Bellinger was named for the vacancy occasioned by the death of Mr. Garris. There was no nomina? tion for'the third p?ace. Lieut. Gov. Sloan repeatedly asked for nomina? tions, and finally Mr. Morgan nomina? ted his friend, Capt. Ivy M. Mauldin of Pickens. There seemed to be abso? lutely no one in charge of the matter and later on after it was too late to be remedied it was found that Mr. L. A. Sease's term had expired and that no one knew of it. Mr. Sease was one of the first graduates of Clemson. At first it was urged there were only two places to fill, bnt Lieut. Gov. Sloan said the resolution called for three places and that he must have that many nominations. Thus Mr. Sease had been legislated out of office unin? tentionally. After the interruption occasioned by the discovery of the predicament the election proceeded as it had started and the trustees elected are : G. Dun? can Bellinger, Jesse H. Hardin, Ivy M. Miauldin. The next elections were for the two trustees of the State Normal and In? dustrial College at Orangeburg. There was no opposition to the re? election of . the incumbents-A. G. Brice of Chester, and J. W. Floyd of Kershaw. When the two trustees for Winthrop were to be nominated there seemed to be no one who knew whose terms ex? pired. It was known that Mr. D. W. McLaurin's term was nearing its close, but no one knew of the other vacancy. Senator Prince nominated Dr. T. A. Crawford, who was formerly on the board. There were no further nomina? tions and Dr. T. A. Crawford and D. W. McLaurin received the entire vote. After the nominations had closed and while the balloting was proceeding there was inquiry as to whose terms were being* filled. No one seemed to know but the nearest that could be gotten at was that the successor of Senator B. R. Tillman was being elected on the boord. No one seemed to know definitely but the advices were that Senator Tillman had been dropped from the Winthrop board in the same way that Mr. Sease had been left off the Clemson board. Messrs. McLaurin and Crawford were elected without opposition. The final elections were for members of the board of visitors of the Citadel. Col. C. S. Gadsden of Charleston and Mr. W. W. Lewis of Yorkville were nominated and reelected without op? position. Senator Hardin asked who were the incumbents so that another mistake would not be made. The elec? tions were for six years. Columbia, Jan. 22.-In the senate today the annual debate on the shad bill took place and it consumed prac? tically all the time of the morning hours. Senator Walker, of George? town, addressed the senate at some length on the bill, which proposes to prevent the shipping of shad beyond the limits of the State. Senator Ragsdale, of Florence, replied, and in the whole argument there was nothing new developed. It was the same old argument that has been made for years and years. Senator Dean introduced a bill to punish assault with intent to rape. The bill provides that any person con? victed of assault with intent to ravish shall be deemed guilty of a felony and shall be imprisoned in the peniten? tiary at hard labor for a term not ex? ceeding 30 years. Senator Manning, of Sumter, intro? duced a bill establishing an immigra? tion bureau. It provides for the ap? pointment of a secretary of commerce and immigration, who shall be ap poited by the governor, upon the recommendation of the South Caroli? na Immigration association. The sal? ary of the secretary shall be $1,950 and thfct of the clerk $1,000. The bill pro? vides that $2,000 shall be appropriated for the payment of expenses of the bureau. The house of representatives spent the greater part of four hours on two bills. One of them is a bill to amend the law in regard to penalty for viola? tion of farm labor contracts, the other was a bill which would haye the pen? itentiary undertake the mining of phosphate rock and the manufacture and sale of fertilizers. This bill was killed. A very important matter among the new bills was the presentation cf a memorial from the State Immigration association. This was accompanied by a bill presented by Mr. D. D. McColl, Jr., to have a bureau of commerce and immigration. Another new bill which will attract attention was pre? sented by Mr. Wm. L. Mauldin, of Greenville, which provides for the es? tablishment of distilleries, breweries and blending plants in citieb of 10,000 inhabitants. There was a mass of matter handled, the introduction of new bills and committee reports consuming a lot of time. The commission to report on the improvements needed in and around the State capital made its re? turn. There was a memorial from the good roads convention and one from the immigration association. The committee to examine the affairs of State colleges made its report also. When the bills under head of second reading were taken up, many wert* passed over as the members were not prepared to discuss them. Mr. Sinkler withdrew his bills introduced last year at the request of the State board of health, one requiring the superin? tendent of the State penitentiary to furnish cadavers to the State board of health and the other bill requiring towns and cities to keep vital statis? tics. Mr. Wall withdrew his bill to apply provisions of "Jim Crow car" law. to roads under 30 miles in length. Mr. Dennis withdrew his proposed constitutional amendment relating to qualifications of school trustees. All these bills withdrawn came over from last year. Mr. Tribble's bill to exempt Confed? erate soldiers and sailors from paying lice_3e, which had received an unfa? vorable report, came up for discus? sion. Dr. Mauldin moved to strike out the enacting words. Mr. Tri bble explained that there is a law exempt? ing veterans from license in the coun? ties, but this does not apply to towns. He appealed for the old Confederate soldiers. Mr. Holman and Mr. Barron appealed to the sentiment of the house in regard to the penniless Confederate soldiers trying to make a living by peddling, but Mr. Moses rather em? barrassed the members from York by suggesting that the bill would exempt from license tax the two richest men in Rock Hill. Mr. Mauldin disavow? ed any unfriendly spirit toward the Confederate soldiers ; he was one him? self, and would go as far as any other man toward helping them, bnt the bill does not discriminate between rich and poor, and there are ex-Con? federates who are wealthy merchants. The bill was amended to meet Mr. Mauldin's objections and was passed to third reading. Columbia, Jan. 23-in the House today considerable work was done in disposing of a great mass of legisla? tion that principally affects the var? ious counties and local communities. There is always a gaeat deal of such legislation necessary to authorize the issuance of bonds, to provide for the reissuance of bonds, to authorize the borrowing of money, etc. The first oider today wes to pass upon only uncontested matters, and under this provision quite a number of local matters were disposed of, one of the most important being a bill which authorizes the City Council of Charleston to imposes if deemed ad? visable, license fees of as much as $25,000. Mr. Rainsford succeeded in having the House pass a resolution looking to an inquiry by the Penitentiary authori? ties into the advisability of the State going into the fertilizer business. Clemson College, from the drift of the talk of the members, has rather a heavy bank account, and, as one- mem? ber expressed it today, the purpose is to take away some of its surplus rasher than have it get "incurable gout." Mr. D. O. Herbert of Oranerebnrg, made a proposition by which 124 bene? ficiary scholarships are to be created for Clemson College, with an award of $100 to each of the scholarships, this money to be paid out of the re? sources of Clemson College. The idea seemed to take very well, as it will cost the State nothing, and will sim? ply tax the present resources of Clem? son College to the amount of $2,400, which is regarded as a bagatelle to that institution, and the great diffi? culty now, judging from the develop? ment of the discussion, is as to how these scholarships aro ?9 be regulated, and whether they can be used towards the development of the agricultural feature of the College, and whether it is possible to make the College more of - a farmer's college than otherwise. Nothing was done upon the measure today, and it promises to be a field for considerable agitation, and the only point now is whether the bill will be loaded down with amendments in the House or not. There was. considerable time lost during the day on motions to adjourn and fixing the time for meeting on Monday. After the usual wasting of time and the foolish calling of a yea and nay vote on a motion to adjourn the House decided to meet onMonday at noon. Among the bills reported from the various committees there was a favor? able report on Mr. Whaley's bill rela? tive to maximum railroad rates as fixed by ?gailroads, and Messrs. Maul din, Williams and Coggeshall were ap? pointed to act as a committee of con? ference on the Lanham baggage bill, on which there is now a disagreement between the two houses. A petition was received from the Catawba Indians of Yjrk asking for an incr?ase of appropriation from the State. WORK OF THE SENATE. Columbia, January 23.-The Senate pretty well dis*osed of the whole Cal? endar with little debate, except on the fertilizer'bill ond the shad bill. Yes? terday Senator Walker spoke in op? position to the shad bill, and this morning Senator Ragsdale, of Flor? ence, spoke in favor of it. There is nothing new in the argument, however important the bill may be, but, not? withstanding this, the debate was lis? tened to with interest. After the first vote was taken it was quite evident that the bill had a ma? jority of the Senators in favor of it, and it was finally passed. Senators Walker and Peurifoy attempted to get in some amendments, but they failed. Senator Sheppard opposed the bill introduced by Senator Warren to pro? vide for an investigation into the amount of phosphate rock that may still remain in the waters of the State, on the ground that all such investiga? tions heretofore have amounted to nothing, and besides he did not be? lieve the Senate was ready to commit the State to the undertaking of manu? facturing fertilizers. Senator Sheppard moved to indefi? nitely postpone the bill. Senator Warren moved to lay that motion on the table, which was adopt? ed by a vote of 16 to 6. The concur? rent resolution was then adopted. It provides that a committee, consisting of two Senators and three Representa? tives be appointed to investigate how much phosphate rock now remains in the beds of the rivers of the State, and that the committee shall report at the next Legislature upon the advisa? bility of the State establishing a fer? tilizer factory.
