Congressman Latimer, it is said, has positively announced that he would be in the race s nd it is also said that he Ts Senator Tillmau'e choice axd will have his support. Whether or not this will help hi8 cause very largely depends. There was a time not a great many years ago when such an announcement was almost certain success tor any office from senator to coroner, but conditions have changed very much in this state in the recent past and the people will' not submit to anything that amacVs of dictation from anyone, even Tillman himself. Then State Senator D. S. Henderson, of Aiken, hat stated positively that he would be in the race for senator Mc Laurin's toga. He is a stroug man, a good speaker and will make a strong competitor for the prize. And it is not likely that Senator McLaurin will himself show the white feather and ca the issue which will be raised by his entering the people have not generally con ceded that at this time the majority would be against him. But it is nearly two years before the cam paign and great changes could take place in that time. Then there are others who are spoken of. Col. Wilie Jones, I have heard, Las announced his candi dacy for the place and Governor McSweeney has been mentioned, though I have not heard him say whether he would or would not enter the race. If he should enter ? greift many people ?re of the opinion that he would be a itroug candidate. A good deal has also been heard here about the race for governor and several candidates are already in training. It is announced from Washington that Congressmau W. J. Talbert wouJd liae to round out his political career through the governor's office, and tr?ij certainly be in the race. It was I stated here last week thatf Lieutenant Governor Tillmau would like to step up higher would . try his haud in the primaries next years for the governor's office. I suppose Mr. Gary and Mr. Patter son will try it over again and there is Mr. Whitman who must not be forgotten. And I suppose there will be several otheis fox it id a time yot beiore the entries doge. Attorney General Bellinger, it is said, will be a candidate for gov ornor. Advertised Letters.

Ship Sank in Twenty Minutes After fthe Struck and There Was no Time for Launching Lifeboats, Only Three of Which Got Off-Captain Goes Down With His Ship. San Fraucisco, Feb. 22-The steamer Rio de Janeiro, Capt. Ward, from the Orient and Hono lulu, struck on a rock al an early hour this morning, just outside the Golden Gate, and sunk in .twenty minutes. A large num ber of people wore drowned. The vessel had been lying off the Heads all night, an unusually heavy fog prevailing. At 4 o'clock thick this morniug she weighed auchor and headed for the city iu charge of Pilot Frank Jordon. Shortly afterkwards the vessel struck a hidden rock aud Pilot Jordon shouted for all on board to take to the boats. The wildest confusion prevailed. Passengers and crew alike scram bled for the boats ?ud in their oudeavor to escape from the rapid ly sinking vessel many jumped overboard. Capt. Ward ordered several of the bor.ts alongside and the ladies ol the cabiu and other passengers were . placed in .?hem. The boats were manned by part, of the crew. So far as known but three of the ships boats lett the vessel. On board the Rio were twenty nine cabiu passengers, 150 in the steerage and 140 in the crew. There is au unverified rumor to effect that Consul Wildman of Hong Kong 'and his son were among those drowned. The (.teamer Sequoia, just returned ?"rom the scene, ha3 twenty people on board. It is reported that Capt. Ward locked himself in his stateroom and went down with his vessel. Pilot Jordon was picked up by one of the boats. Passenger Philnuzzinblatt of Honolulu was saved. The vessel Bank in less than twenty minutes and it is possible the list of fatalities will be large. G. H. Sheets, a German officer, was rescued by the life saving crew. He said the fog prevented him from seeing what was going on in the work of rescue. He procured a life preserver and jumped overboard. He was in the water only a short time when he was rescued. Capt. Ward stood on the deck and superintended the launching of the lifeboats and the rafts. CONSUL WILDMAN LOST. San Francisco. Feb. 22.-The number of lives that were lost in the wreck of the steamer Rio de Janeiro is variously estimated at from fifty to 150. It is almost positive that Consul Wildman, his wifo and two children were among the number lost. Nothing baB been seen of the Widman family since the vessel struck the rock. Purser John Rooney is missing and all his papers. It is believed he went down with the vessel. Unless he is found alive or his pouch is recovered it will be impossible to fully determine the total loss of life until the agent ot the company in the Orient ana at Honolulu eau be communicated with. One of the r.-scued pas sengers gives it as Lia belief that the loss of the vessel was caused by the explosion of her boilers. Political "Horror-Scope." The politcians are grooming themselves for the next primary. Unless all eigus fail there will ne another great shakeup in 1902. A number of Congretsman have he!d their pobitiou6 for ten years, and the people aro beginning to think they have had ample oppor tunity to display their ability. The CougresBmen themselves realize that they must hunt new fields in which to browse. A new governor will be elected. Me Laurin's place is envied and will have to be filled. It is already announced that Congressman Talbert will m?ke the race for Governor. His place as Congress man will thereby become vacant. Solicitor Thurman is spoken of as a probable candidate. The many friends of John C. Sheppard in this county would be pleased to see him honored with a seat iu Congress. In fact a United States senator's place is none too large for Gov. Sheppard. He is one of th? few men in political life who is abpolutely politcally honest, while his private integrity is spot lees. Former opponents of Gov. Lheppurd recognize in him qualifi cations of heart and character that eminently befit him for political preferment. Sheppard could have easily been elected Govern >r in '90. Tillman and the loaders of reform come to him and laid the crowD, so to speak, at his feet and said, "follow ns." But Sheppard did not altogether agree with the plan proposed and preferred to remain a private citizen rather than sacrifice his convictions. Two years later when he ran against Tillman, he saw the hopelessness of his task, but' again consented to on a martyr to his convictions. Since then Tillman and Shephard have been warmfrieudsand to day thore is not a more popular man in the State among the friends of Till man than John Sheppard and the rank and file of the State are anxious to reward him. It-is not known what Gov. Sheppard wants, but his friends will be satisfied with nothing less that a congress man's place for him. Latimer also must be counted among those to be shifted. He is out and out a candidate for tho United States Senate and his popularity in this district in dicates to other aspirants that he is a formidable rival. ^Hender son from Aiken, John Gary Evans from Spaptanburg, Speaker Steven . son from Chesterfield, and Gov. McSweeney are all spoken of as possible candidates, while it is by no means ceraiu that McLourin will hhve a successor other than himself: McLaurin holds his own better than the politicians think. Congressman Latimer's en trance into the Senatorial arena win lenve his place vacant and there will be a lively scramble for it. G?o. Prince of Anderson, Senator Graydon of Abbeville. Dr. Wyche of Newberry are spoken of as candidates. Greenwood will not Lave a caudidaet unless it be Senator Gaines. Some of his friends speak of him as a possible candidate but it is not known ; whether he will make the race or not. In fact no one yet knows in what district Greenwood County under the redistricting bill will b? placed and it is impossible to say for whom the people of this county will have the privilege of voting for congress. Col. Dan Tompkins may be induced to leave his vegetables and horses aud make somebody hustle. Dan Tompkins is not dc e with at any rate. He is far too young a man and too nhrewd and brainy a man to go into permanent retirement at. this time of life. But we shall 6ee what we shall see.-Geenwood Index. What They Arc Good For.

McSweeney had not up to tue close of business hours yester day had the bill repealing the ant if ree pass act presented to him for his signature. He has as yet not stated what he proposes to io about it, save that he will give the matter very careful consideration. -State. This is a golden opportunity for Gov. McSweeney to show of what stuff he is made. If he looks at it through the same glasses that Jim Tillman did. South Carolina will bavo one dark blot less upon ber escutcheons. We admire the manhood dis played by the Lieut. Governor when he denounced this measure and i ast Ois vote against it. Not a time serving politician, but a patriot, proud of his old mother State, not willing that calumny sfiould bi heaped upon her and not raise his voice in her defense. All honor to Jim Tillman. Secrecy About Public Affairs Not to be Toierutod. "The public business of a municipality," says Bird S. Coler in Everybody's Magazine, "is the affair of ita citizens, and circumlocution are not to be tol erated. Let the public buainess be doue in tbe open, and there must bb no fear of opponents and n-? favor for friends. The proper government of a city is for all itB inhabitants, not for the benefit of a party or a faction. The essential text of the system is simplicity and publicity."

Over the House Deliberations. i The House 3 p?terday afternoon had the rather unexpected pleasure of sitting under Representative Talbert as Speaker pro tem. For a Southern soldier, and au ex Confederate, Mr. Talbert found himself.; in quite a prominent position, one that no Confederate before him bas ever reached, aud only one has ever approached when the. Republicans had t maioritv in tho House. C. Buck Kilgore of Texas, so noted for hi.* independent spirit and his defiance of Czar Reed's rules, was once honored by Mr: Reed himself and made Chairman of the Committee of the Whole, but that position was far inferior io that occupied by Mr. Talbert yesterday. There WCB a peculiar fitness in having the Soutb Carolinian ID tbe Chair, since he was put there to take care of the passing of pension bills. Mr. Talbert's an tagonism to pension bills as a class is well known, and the fight h^ made against the wholesale and indiscriminate passage of all applications, whether meritorious or otherwise, is part of the history of the first session of this Congress. He finally compelled the Speaker to give up the "Friday evening psusion matinees," where all sorts of thiugs were jammed through with only a few members present Mr. Talbert, however, acquitted himself of the duties of his office with becoming dignity, though parts of the routine of declaring bills passed at times wero left out or mixed up. A little desire was evident on the part of Mr. Grosvenor and other experienced members of the Republican side, to make some amusement for themselves out of the presiding officer protem, but it received a sharp check from Mr. Talbert. In the hurry of passing from bill to bill, and in his desire to get the bussiness over wilh by the time for adjournment, Mr. Talbert may, perhaps, hs ve omitted a few words of the perfunctory forms. Mr. Grosvenor arose during one of tbe Speaker's breathing spells and said, as he smiled amusedly, "Mr. Speaker, I rise to a parliamentary enquiry." Mr. Talbert-State your par liament!.! ry enquiry. Mr. Grosvenor-What has become of the laRt three bills beforo the House? Mr. Talbert-I ordered them, read a third time, they wore read a third time, and passed. Mr. Grosvenor-believe the Chair failed to announce that,,they bad passed. Mr. Talbert-If that is a fact, the gentleman must have been asleep. I am glad to have doue something to awaken him. The House broke into hearty laughter, " and thereafter Mr; Talbert was allowed to pass the bilis according to his own methodp. -\Vashing:ou News. The Advertiser and the Commoner: W. J.

It is in the Terres strait, at the northern extremity of Australia, and be longs to James Clark of Queensland. Mr. Clark, who is known as "the king of the pearl fishers," originally stocked it with ICO,OOO pearl oysters. Now 1,500 men-200 of whom are divers and 2?0 vessels turo employed ia har vesting the crop. "I havo boon 15 years engaged in pearl Ashing," Mr. Clark told a corre spondent of the Melbonrno Age. ' ' I began tn a small way and have given the fish eries my close attention during all this time. My experience haa led me to the belief that, with proper intelligence in the selection of a place, one can raise poarls and pearl shells as easily a? one can raise oysters. "I started my farm three years ago and have stocked it with shells which 1 obtained, in many instances, far out at sea. To grow shelia successfully, how ever, according to my experience thui far, the water must not be too deep. "My pearl shell farm covers 6,088 ?maro miles. Over most of it the wat? is shallow. In shallow water sholls at tain the greatest size, and, besides, it is hard on the divers to go ?own deep foi them. "I sbi? my pearls to London in mj own vessels.
