THE MONEY SAVERS UNION, S. C. N LEVER WILL NOT MAKE THE RACE Congressman to Take No Part in Fight For Senate. SEEK RE-ELECTION FOR HQUSE Some Very Interesting Political Reports Come From Capitol. COLUMBIA, Nov. 3.?That Con Ki^ooinau /\. r. i^ever win announce that he will not be in the Senatorial race, thus leaving the field to Senator E. D. Smith and Governor Blease, is the information available in Columbia from a high and authorative source. It has been felt here for some time that Congressman Lever has made up his mind not to enter the Senatorial race, and the confirmation of this came today from a source reliable and authorative. The announcement from Congressman Lever has been awaited for several weeks. It is known that strong pressure was brought to bear on him to enter the race for the Senate and it was also reported from reliable quarters that Sonator Tillman was' trying to induce Mr. Levfcr to run for the upper house. It is known that Congressman Lever consulted his friends from all parts of the State i? :?> - ?iiu una jjiumisuH 10 maKc a public statement before returning to Washington. With the elimination of Mr. Lever from the Senatorial field it is believed that the South Carolina patronage fight will be quickly settled. That the chances of the appointment of F. H. Weston, of Columbia, as district attorney, and J. L. Sims, of Orangeburg, as marshal, are materially strengtened by the turn of events is believed. Those in touch with the situation and who have been keeping up with the steps in this fight and have been reading between the lines have figured out that a lot has been going on behind the scenes all having to do with the next Senatorial race. That the naming of the district attorney and the United States marshal were involved in the Senatorial fight no one doubted. It is reported here in Columbia, and has been talked for some time, u:n ^ - ? - uwv nit: uin iu create two federal districts in South Carolina was offered as a solution of the patronage fight between Senators Tillman and Smith and to relieve the national administration from deciding between them. However, it is understood that the outlook for the passage of the bill is not bright, in fact that' it is in "cold storage." Henca the matter reverts to the original proposition of deciding which Senator will control the appointment and it seems that the district attorney is the best. That the national administration favor the re-election of Senator Smith as against Governor Blease is generally accepted, and, in fact, the governor has charged that President Wilson is using patronage to try to keep him from the senate. With the Senatorial race left to Senator Smith and Governor Blease it is believed here that President Wil-' soil will send in the names of F. H. Weston as district attorney and J. L. Sims as United States marshal. THE PRESIDENTS FRIEND. Thomas Dixon and President Wilson Were College Mates when Young. In connection with the forthcoming engagement here of Thomas Dixon's latest play, "The Leopard's Spots," dramatized by him from his book of that name, it is learned that Mr. Dixon and President Woodrow Wilson were boyhood friends and their inenasnip is still kept up today. They attended Johns-Hopkins University in Baltimore, where they both studied law and politics. This explains the fact that Mr. Dixon's new book, "The Southerner," is dedicated to President Wilson. The author's reason for this is partly due to his friendship for Mr. Wilson and also ecause the latter is the first southern president this country has had since Abraham Lincoln, who is the central character in the new book. "The Leopard's Spots" will be seen in this city at the opera house, Nov. 13th under the personal management of Mr. Dixon. Notice to Debtors and Creditors. All parties owing the estate of Wm. F.

Conditions in Other Rppfinns Predicting an unprecedented price for corn next year and challenging the federal census figures for the South Carolina crop, Commissioner Watson of South Carolina yesterday issued a statement to the farmers of the State urging that they conserve this year's crop. The statement follows: "Though the federal government's preliminary estimate of the corn crop in South Carolina this year indicates only about the same size crop as that of last year there can be no question that South Carolina has raised during 1913 the largest and best corn crop in her history and in my opinion the estimate referred to is almost ? farcical. This I say with an intimate knowledge gained by personal observation of conditions that have prevailed in every nook and corner of the State this year. Care of Product. "Whether or not, however, we have raised a bumper crop it is of supreme importance that the farmers in South Carolina be supremely careful to take care of all the corn that they have raised this year; that they carefully restrain from wasteful use; and that they take the best of care of the product. "There is a big shortage in corn throughout the United States, European Russia, Spain. Italy, Hungary proper, Japan, Bulgaria, Switzerland and Tunis, and the preliminary estimate of the world's crop in September calls for a total production of only 2,7?i(>,000,000 which is 22.4 per cent less than vas raised in these countries last j/ear. "It is manifest, therefore, that a State like this which is still buying corn from West, no matter what its quality, '1 be in a position this year to realize excellent profits from State interchange of corn. High Prices. "Iii a letter to me from one of the largest l^^ses inside the State doing a DiAness in corn the manager . of the company says: " 'In our opinion corn will retail from $1.25 to $1.50 per bushel the coming summer, and we believe if the matter of high prices could be brought to bear on them, while we have a lot of forage and other different stuffs, that they couid take care of the corn until the summer months when corn is always higher than any other time in the year, and another thing that we think would hold the price of corn down is the planting of a large oat crop which would curtail the use of corn.' "The statement made by the writer of this letter I do not think is exaggerated and is is for that reason that i wish to urge every possessor of corn in the State to conserve the corn, ?ievote his attention immediately to the planting of all grain and forage crops that he possibly can, and in that way get the full measure of profit on t^ie corn that he has raised in the year 1913. This year's corn crop is remarkably free from moisture and is in excellent condition to be saved with the least possible trouble." I)R J.
