June 17.?The me. diution of the war "on liuerta" is to. day facing the oTUClul point. The American delegates, following strict and explicit instructions from Wash? ington are today making clear for the last tlmo' to the mediators that they will accopt none but a constitutional? ist for the presidency of Mexico. The Mexican delegates have been told that the provisional government must be in the hands of a constitu? tionalists majority. It is even report? ed that the namo of Uaoul Madero, a lieutenant of Oen. Villa and a broth? er of the murdered president, has been motnioned by the Americans as the possible head of tho new Mexican ? government. Though the Mexican delegates dip? lomatically refuse to discuss the situ? ation openly it is said that privately they are voicirg a hopeless feeling. It is expected there will now bo a lull until Thursday or Friday to allow tho Mexican delegates tlmo to "think it over." . , Pot a Weak Stomach. Take Chamberlain's Tablets.

Clemson College, T :no 10.?Wheth? er it is to be used as food for the table, us a food crop lor animals or as a produeor of starch or industrial alcohol, tho sweet potato is probably ono of tho most protltablo crops the South Carolina farmer can grow. Investigations made at Clemson Col? lege by T. E. Keltt, chemist of the South Carolina Experiment Station, and others, covering a period of about fifteen years, have secured for tho farmers ol this State almost com? plete information about this valuable crop. All this work is summarized in Prof. Keit t h bulletin No. 105 on "Swoet Potato Investigation," which can be of great value to any planter In his sweet potato culturo. other bulletins on tho subject are No. 14?; and No. 150. Prof. Keitt found a light sandy KWra. nroderatcly supplied with or? ganic matter, to be the best soil for this crop. Hows should be slightly ridged and about two und one-half to three feet apart, according to tho va? riety planted. Plants should be placed from eighteen inches to two feet apart in the row. Tho best method Of planting sweet potatoes is with cuttings from vines. If slip beds were not set out early enough *his year for plants to be sutliclently large for good vine cut? tings ut this time, or if no slips were grown, it is advisa'ne for one to buy cuttings from a neighbor. Planting slips Is more expensive than plant? ing vine cuttings. Besides, the fungi which produces reds cro less bkely to be c arried on a vino cutting than on slips pulled directly from the old po? tatoes. Thus potatoes grown from vine cuttings win probably be freer from rot than those grown from slips. It is an easy matter to get enough vines fo? cuttings If seed po? tatoes in suliicicnt quantity are bed? ded early enough. A fertilizer suggested for sweet potatoes is |#t pounds kainit. SOD 1 pounds cotton seed meal and 100 l-ounds of IG per cent phosphate. This should be applied >?t the rate of IM to l.ono p.,unds per acre. Frequent shallow cultivation is im? portant in sweet potato growing, as 'ii th<? culture of many other crops.

It will doubtless be recalled, as was reported in The .Stute at the time, that A arion Cantey, a negro youth, was arrested on a charge of assault and battery with intent to kill, and after a preliminary cxamintion held by Magistrate L. S. Harwick he was committed to jail to await trial at the court of general sessions. About 1 o'clock in the night he was placed in the hands of u constable and starte?! to Manning to lie placed in jail. Alter proceeding about four miles on the' way, and when about Titulars mill, it is alleged that he was forcibly taken from the constable and ^summarily shot to death by a mob of lynchcrs. The case will probably come up for trial at the September term of court. NEWS FROM PRIVATEER.

Farmers arc laying by their corn and putting top dresses to their cotton. Oats have all been harvested and the yield was better than expected. The acreage planted in tobacco Is very small. Mr. J. H.

It is understood that the caucus considered nothing beyond getting] their people to enroll and working up enthusiasm for Governor Hlcase in tho race for Senate.

Plsgah, June 11.?Wo had a nice rain Friday evening, just the kind for crops. Oat cutting is finished. The crop on the whole is light. Early fall planting on deep preparation will solve a spring drought and that is what will ho done in the future. La? bor has got so scarce and high that machinery will have to largely do the work on the farms in the future. Notwithstanding all the draw hacks, the crops through this section arc looking well. Tho finest corn . have seen is that of Mr. James Irby of Boykln. It is shoulder high to a tall man. He is no Williamson corn planter. His big barns full of line corn proves that ho knows how to raiso it. The people around here are no corn stunters. Somehow they arc torn sellers and not buyers. So Mr. Wil? liamson's plan is not followed. On new ground the first year thirty bush else of Com have been made to th^ aero with no heavy manuring1, freely admit that agriculture is in its Infancy and its future growth will prove it. Mr. Albert Rogers of Blshopville is visiting his son. Mr. T. M. Rogers. Mr. George Rogers of Blshopville, one of the substantial business men of Blshopville, was here last week. it seems that Senator Tillman is going hack on what he so freely con damned in 1S!>0?that is, interference! in State politics by a United Staler senator. Hampton did it and it cost him his scat. Two years ago Tillman said: "Hands off," hut it was hands in, and he was rebuked to the extent of 25,000 votes and rightly so, for his Interference, where he had no busi? ness. This year he is trying it again. It had just as well be under? stood that the days of P. w. Daw son have passed forever from the surface of South Carolina politics.
