Columbia , S. C, May 7. That Gov
ernor Blease will be beaten for the Unit-
red States Senate
tor E. D. Smith is the strong indication
of the incomplete report s from th forty
four county conventions. It i.s believed
from the-ie reports that in the State De
mocratic convention to be held here
May 20th, Smith will have the support
at least 250 delagates as against about
SO delegates for Blease.
At the expiration ol his term as Gov
ernor early next year, Blea's will be
merely a private citizen.
NOTICE
, As is our usual custom, we will com
mence the Summer Sunday delivery
of ice, the first Sunday in May. The
wagons will make one delivery of ice
Sundays until further notice.
Our patrons will kindly help the
drivers by having their money or ice
tickets convenient, also ice boxes and
refrigerators ready for ice, as a minutes
delay in each house means hours late
