MK. SMITH'S SPEECH. Air. E. D. Smith was very enthusiastic over the new cotter movement in the South, and declared "If God Almighty made the crass He made Ed Smith ?r God Almighty is responsible f<>? the rise iu the price of cotton." He soon had the entire crowd gathered close around him hanging onto each word, wliilo explained the reason the farmers of the South were poor and expounded tc them the doctrine of making cot ton bring every cent it will bring. IIo outlined the plun* of the association, dwelling especially on the warehouse and insu ranco scheme. Mr. Smith put t great deal of tiro into his spooch, a great many facts, and no small degree of fancy and fun. From the standpoint of the furmera' cause, his whs the speech of the oocasion. At the conclusion of the speech es, Mr. Smith stormed forwnn again and nuked for n collection telling the farmers the cotton as eociation had made them $100, 000,000 richer than they were ; few weeks ago and all they want ed was one nicklo from, eacl member of the association. This he said, would carry on the worl a year. He a?ked that they pa^ this small contribution to th< chairman after the meeting ad joumed. But he spoke so enthu siaastically that one big farmei standing near could not hold oul till the end. "Whoopeo! whoopee!" ho yelled. "'That's right go it! 1 lore's a quarter." Another tall, good-naturod look ing man with a speckled homospun shirt and a broad smile standing just in front, walked up and interrupting the speaker said: "II to's 10 cents Mr. Smith, f;?r mntte pour turner horn that can't give. I'm a cntun inill man myseIf. In a short while the hat seemed nearly full, and the cuius were not nil nickels. llow Prohibition was Killed. Senator Tillm m's memory when he remarks, "Then, men are indill'erent, "as Ihey were in the "Prohibition election in 1892, "when only 60,000 out of 92,000 voters voted in that box," is greatly at fault. The number of votes cast for candidates for office in the primary of 1892 was S8,474, nearly 4,000 less than the figures which the Senator has ' given. On the other hand, in the ' Prohibition box 70,53f> votes were cast, an?l of these 40,238 votes were for Prohibition, and 30,197 against it. At that time there were 35 counties in the Statr, 27 of which gave in aggregate majority of 15,936 voles " for Prohibition, while eight couiv ' ties gave an aggregate of 5,797 1 against it. The net majority foi Prohibition in Ihe State was 10,? 141. Senator Tillman's figures would " make it appear that the vote on the temperance question fell 32,> OOO short of the vote for Democratic candidates, whereas it ac' tually did fall short less than 18,000. In other words, the Senator 1 blundered to the extent of about l4,o0o votes. ' The opponents of Prohibition 1 have persistently repeated the s'ory that the people generally took little interest in the temper* ancc vote in 1892, and the gentlemen in the General Assembly who violated the contracts with the Prohibition majorities of their counties by voting for the whiskey traffic as an amendment to the Childs bill have labored to silence their own consciences as well as 1 ihe protestations of their constituents by encouraging the im prcssiou that this vote was small. 1 The truth is, the vote 011 the temperance question in the I892 primary was remarkably large. We doubt if on any question of policy not personified by a candi^ A 1. 1 I uait cu i.u^c uvuic nas ocen case i in this State within a quarter of a . century, if ever. Compare, for i example, the vote on the amendi ments to the Constitution sub* mitted to the people last year, and 1 it will be found that the temperl ancc vote of 1892 was far greater. ; The truth is that the Prohibi. tionists in 1882, asking a fair field ( and no fnvor, won their fight by a decisive majority in an election at ' which more than seven-ninths of the white Democrats, as measured by the vote for Governor purtici, patcd.

Mulloy; assault and hattery with intent to kill, the defendant's J counsel, Messrs Loe ?Se Askina, agreed to enter a plea of guilty of assault of a high ami aggravated , ^ nature and the defendant was son- j tenced to six months1 imprison- ^ ment or to pay a tine of $150The Hno was paid. In passing sentence in this case Judge l'urdy * took occaaionto touch up the die- | pensary law in tho inconsistency ? tf ? of ith workings. Tic case, he said, was one that puzzled him h good deal. While ho had heard u general statement of it he wiik not informed as to the details of the affair. He would not impose as heavy a fine on the defendant, , perhaps, as the piosecution ex. peeled, because he understood that the young man's circumstances . were such that the fine would have to be paid hy his friends. The defendant was drinking hen he I got into the trouble ? "dispensary , liquor, wnsn't it?" "Yoa?, sir," was the reply. Judge I'urdy then continued hh follows: "Wo take this liquor and employ a chemist to analyze it to guarantee its purity. We are all responsible for it ?I am responsible as well at others. Wo put it in a bottle with a beautiful label and a palmetto troe stamped on it, but tho devil is in it for all that. We prohibit any one but an oflicer from telling it. Now wo have put this stuff in this man's ahnds * and when he assaults a man, snch cs he did Mr. Andrews, we haul him up here and punish him for , it." l BRONCHITiS FOR TWENTY YEARS.
