C.—ln all probability Governor Colo L. iiloa.se will not be a member of the democratic Htate convention. Hay* a special to The .Journal, when that body assembles in Columbia on May 20, at noon. The Smith people captured the club meet ings In the home county of the gov ernor on last Saturday and it is under stood that they plan to leave the gov ernor'a name off the list of eight dele gates which will be sent up from New berry county to the state convention. The Newberry county convention is two to one against the governor. Optimism reigns throughout the ranks of the anti-Hi ease or pro-Smith faction as the result of the overwhelm ing defeat of the Hleaes forces throughout the state in the dub meet ings last week. Reports received in Columbia state that the overwhelm ing majority of the county conven tions are in the hands of the Smith faction and that the state convention and tiie state- democratic executive committee will be dominated by the Smith forces. Some are even predict ing that the Mease people will have less representation than they did in the convention of 1912 w'hen their del egates numbered only 59 out of a total of 326. The county conventions meet at each of the forty-four county throughout the state on Monday at noon to elect delegates to the stale convention and also choose their rep resentative on the state democratic executive committee. The executive committee is made up of one repre sentative from each of the forty-four counties and the national democratic committeeman from this state, who at present is United States Senator J 3. R. Tillman. The principal fight before the state convention will be the effort to re form tiie primary and “tighten up" the regulations for voting. In several of the county conventions on Monday a big fight will come over the effort which will be made to send instructed delegations to the state convention to require voters to produce their regis tration certificates before they can participate In th primary. Especially will this produce a hard fight in ftlch larid county. Former Representative John J. McMahan will lead the battle for to apply requirements of the general elections to the pri mary. The convention, although over whelmingly anti-Mease, is by no means certain of adopting such strin gent restrictions for the primary. Charleston county will Monday wit ness one of the bitterest struggles in its convention of recent years. Ten clubs in the city of Charleston sent up delegations favorable to Congress man Whaley and accounted ns anti* Mease. Heve.n clubs sent up delega tions dominated by Mayor Grace and pledged to Governor Mease. In seven other clubs contests are going up, delight ions representing both sides claiming t<» have been chosen, Tiie entire state looks for a contest from Charleston to come before the state convention. The Rluiae people are doing prac tical!) no talking since the club meet ings, bill arc condoling themselves with pointing out that the convention of lit 1 - was against tlif governor and claiming Jhnt the club meetings do not represent the real sentiment of the people. Representative C. C. Wychr. of Spartanburg, the Blease floor leader In the last house, said Friday that the governor would carry Spartanburg county by from 1,500 to 2,000 majority, hut admitted that the result of the convention was In doubt. It is generally accepted that the fcipar lanburg convention will he against Ulc governor and that the delegates may Include such strong anti-administra tion men as State Chairman Johtj Gary Keans, cx-Solicitor J. C. Otts. Representative J. \V. Boyd, and oth ers. If tlie Blease forces are in control of that county, Representative Wyche will he elected county chairman,’lt la stated; hut If the Smith people domi nate, Mr. Archer will probably he re elected. The most significant fact to politi cal observers Is the overwhelming de feat of the Blease leaders to capture the club meetings in ihe face of the dtermlnatlon on their part to do so. The governor Isgged the call to his followers to turn out and control tho clubs, and several conference* of the administration leaders were held In the spring to further this end. In contrast with this the anti-Bleaso people said nothing, and It was gene rally upposed that they were going to let the clubs go by, but they qulet ly turned out In large numbers and got control, furnishing- the administra tion faction with a great surprise. They even captured Newberry coun ty, which had always been controlled by the governor, ami'it Is probable that other counties hitherto controlled hv the governor will he In the hands of the Smith people. l ulled States Senator E. TV Smith's friends are jubilant, but friends of Governor Blease say they are not wor ried. Much Interest attaches to the results of the county conventions to day. LYNDHURST, S. C. NEWS Lyndhurmt, S.

She Sent the Seed Back to Congressman Atlanta, Ga.—There’s a fine bit of a story out today on a well-known North Georgia congressman, who has an agricultural bent of his own and who dearly loves to send free seed to his constitutents. A woman wrote him recently asking for some garden seed. He sent flitck by return mail a generous supply of what she asked for, mailed in the reg ular official envelope. In a couple of weeks the seeds went back to the con congressman. The woman had read the card on the corner of the envelope which says, “S3OO fine for private use.” She wrote the following note to the congressman: “I am much obliged for the seeds but I wanted them for private use, and could not possibly afford to run the risk of having to pay the S3OO fine."
