A dispatch says that money is needed in Honolulu. In one respect?t least Honolulu is thoroughly Americanized. The good people of Greenwood coun ty axe right in using every effort to arrest and convict the scoundrels who recently perpetrated the outrages upon a few negroes of that county. The whole State of South Carolina has to suffer on account of the acts of these '.whitecappcrs," who should he made to suffer for their conduct. In tlae Democratic primary election of last year the vote on the whiskey question in Anderson County was as follows: Prohibition, 1889; Dispensary, 1431; License, 536. If the Democratic party would leave the question to be settled in the primary election next year, and agree to abide by the decis ion of the people, the dispensary law would be wiped out of existence. Let the people pass judgment on the law, and the result will forever settle the question._ Statistician Wroth, of the Baltimore chamber of commerce, says: "The pros pects of thc growing crop of corn leaves scarcely, anything to be desired. The acreage is nearly the largest eyer grown by this country, aggregating 81,556,000 acres. The largest previous area was ^ in 1895, when the acreage was given at 82,000,000 acres and the production as 2,151,000,000 bushels. The largest crop ever grown here was in 1896, and was officially stated as 2,283,000,000 bushels. A crop of2,200,000,000bushel8 is indic?t ed by the report of the agricultural de partment." -:- m mi The August issue of the Southern ^ Field, edited by Mr. M. V. Richards, land and industrial agent of the South . ern railway, Washington, D. C., con tains a variety of valuable information about the cities, towns and farming neighborhoods in the territory of the Southern railway, with suggestions for men seeking homes or locations for industries. The Southern Railway is a great and progressive system, and is leaving nothing undone that will tend to the development of the agricultural and manufacturing interests of every section of the South where its system touches. The Southern Exposition in the city . of New York, which will be held from the 3l8t of October to the 25th of No vember, is an important enterprise for the benefit of the South, which will ad vertise our matchless resources in nat ural and productive wealth. The ex hibit from ?he South will show the wonderful progress made during the past quarter of a century in agriculture, in mining, in manufactures and kindred industries and in educational science. South Carolinais represented on the advisory "board of the Exposition by Gov. M. B. Mcsweeney, Mayor J. Adger Smyth, of Charleston, Congressman A. v C. Latimer, of this County and Mr. ^Jester G. Furman, of Greenville. Henry M. Neill, the New Orleans Cot? ton expert, has announced his estimate of this year's cotton crop at 12,000,000 bales, the largest ever made. His esti mates an to the crops of the past few years have been so near correct that the great cotton markets' of the world be lieve him, and the price is bound to go down. The Government crop report for August issued on the 10th inst., puts the condition of cotton at 84 points out of a possible 100. This is the lowest August average for ten years past. South Carolina is foot in the cotton class with a per centage of 78. We hope Mr. Neill is mistaken in his esti mate and will soon change his figures. Our only remedy is for the farmers to hold their cotton off the market for awhile. ^_ The South Carolina farmers are get . ting profit and praise by their sensible diversification of crops. The New Or leans Daily States says of them that they are "evidencing the possession of more good, hard sense than those of some other States we could uame. . They are turning their backs upon cot ton and the crop of tobacco this year is estimated at 20,000,000, worth from 4 to 26 cents a pound. Moreover, the cultivation of the wheat has been so successful that the acreage will likely be doubled next year." We sincerely hope that some of the farmers of An derson County will experiment next season with a crop of tobacco. We are told that ?onie of our land is adapted to the growth of tobacco, and that Une specimens have been grown herc. An exchange says: "Talk about your I moral waves, but an epidemic ol' com- J mon honesty between man and man is what the country most needs. This way of scowling like a thunder-storm at the more open sins, while man's bus iness obligations to his fellow man are disregarded is not even philosophy." There is not in all the books a more solid chunk of wisdom or decency than is contained iu this paragraph. A man who will not pay his obligations gets np in meetings and subscribes some large amount to the preacher, to mis sions, to the poor, to the propagation of religion, when the best thing he could do would be to get some religion for himself. True Christianity will not allow any man to be generous before he is just. No human creature can re commend himself to Heaven by large alms and a disregard for his own obli gations. A man who can afford to give in church has already settled hi? ac counts or is ready and willing to do it without any delay. Are ur right .'1 Does the Loni allow a mau to sacrifice his neighbor in subscribing to the heathen? There are a lot of old whited sepulchers up on the front seats going to the devil as fast as they can, be cause, while they are loud-mouthed in church, they are dishonest. They may pray loud and often, but in the last day they will learn that He never knew them. In a circular letter to the Mayors and Intendants of cities and towns in the State, Gov. Mcsweeney calls upon them for information relative to the enforcement of the liquor law. He calls their attention to the necessity of seeingthe dispensary law rigidly en forced, and wants to know if he can depend upon these officers to assist him in enforcing the law, and that the vio lators of the same are arrested by the police and brought before the proper tribun als for trial. The G o vernor asks the aid and views of these offi cers. What he wants to know is will city and town councils give the aid neces sary. As far as Anderson is concerned, the Governor may rest assured that he will have the hearty aid and co-opera tion of our city authorities. The dis pensary law has always been enforced here, and to-day there is not even a suspicion of a "blind tiger" in this city. Can a Man Hold Two Offices I Mn. EDITOR : D. H. Russell, editor of the Peoples Advocate, as the writer has been informed and believes, now holds two offices-that of Magistrate and that of Census Supervisor for thc Third Congressional District, (a) Can any one in this State legally hold two offices at one and the same time? (ft) What will be the result of the cases that may be tried before D. H. Russell and sent up to Court, since he qualified as census Supervisor ? CITIZEN'. [Sec. 3 of Art. II of the Constitution says : "Every qualified elector shall be eligible to any office to be voted for. unless disqualified by age, as prescribed in this Constitution. But no jwrson shall hold two offices of honor or profit at i//.c same time ; provided, that any person holding another office may at thc same time be an officer in the mili tia on a Notary Public." 11 seem s to us that this is very plain. The position of Magistrate is one office and that of Census Supervisor another, and com-. missions arc issued in both positions. We are no lawyer, and do not know w hat would be the legal efi'cct of any case sent up by Russell. The question could be answered by the Attorney General, and we suggest that "Citizen" refer it to him. We remember a year ago when Mr. J. M. Smith, who was a member of the County Board of Con trol, was elected an Alderman of this city, the question was raised, and he was told that he would have to give up one of the positions. Under the Constitution of 18GS, under a similar provision contained in the present Con stitution, ifc was decided that when one holding an office accepts another in compatible therewith, he thereby va cates the first.-St*ate vs. Butts, 9 S. C., 150'. Also, his salary for the first office will cease from the time he accepts the second.-9 S. C.; 259.-EDITOR.] Reunion af Orr's Regiment. The survivors of Orr's Regiment held their annual reunion at Sandy Springs last Wednesday. The attendance on thc occasion was very large, and the exercises were exceedingly interesting to every one* present. Since the last reunion Mrs. Mary J. Orr, the "mother of the Regiment,"'and Col. Miller, its last commander, have passed away. Capt. A. M. Guyton presided over the meeting. An election of officers took place, and Gen. R. R. Hemphill, of Ab beville, was elected President to suc ceed the late Col. Miller. All the oth er officers were re-elected. Gen. Hemphill read an interesting tribute to the memory of the late Col. Miller. He was followed by Rev. J. T. Mc Biyde, D. I)., who delivered a memo rial address on Mrs. Orr. lu the after noon Col. J. L. Orr deli vereda very in structive and interesting address.

Resolved, That a copy of these resolu tions be sent to his family in Germany, and that a page in our Minute Book be inscribed to his memory. MARY .1. ORil. As survivors we have lost one of our best friends, and we would offer the following: Resolved, First, That as survivors of Orr's Regiment, we have learned with unfeigned sorrow of the death of her whom we proudly, lovingly, called the "mother of Orr's Regiment" Resolved, Second, That we desire in this public manner to place ourselves on record as sustaining in the death of Mrs. Orr an irreparable loss. Resolved, Third, That remembering with delight her untiring devotion to all whose names were on our roll, coupled with her strenuous efforts to honor and encourage us with her presence at these reunions, we pledge ourselves to make greater efforts to attend.

Sheriff Johnston says when he went over to South Carolina to Sinai camp meeting he saw a curious sight-th?' campmceting at high pressure with a revolving steam flying jinny on the grounds at the same time. From the crowded appearance of the latter it looked as it quite a large number of the brethren were bound for heaven by the flying-jinny route. At Mt. Sinai. MK. EDITOR: I see from thc corres pondent of Holland's Store that some thing is said about the "flying-jinny" at Sinai Campmceting. Hehas forgot ten that all things are right at a negro camp, and more, especially if one of Anderson County's Representatives is at it and conducting a beer stand, sell ing cigars and other things that would tempt a negro to part with his money. Now, Mr. Editor, "Burke" must have voled for this Representative, or he would not so conspicuously omitted to have mentioned him. We'.wouldlike to know if "Burke" was present and saw this ungodly sight, (d' the "flying jinny,*' and what became of him that he did not see our Represcntative selling on the Sabbath, and byr his example saying to our young boys, "It is ali right. 1 am your Representative and whatever ? do you have no right to question!" FAU.UKI:. TALK >0. 7. I CANT SEE AS WELL AS i SHOULD, IK a complaint you hear, not only from older people, but from young an well. Age is no criterion for the wearing of glasse*. Many are born with greater defects than come with age. Yoong peo ple inherit and cultivate defect? by strain and abuse. Young, old or middle aged, if you are not getting the service from your eyes that you think you should, don't delay if they bother you in any way, have them examined and properly corrected at once. The longer they are deprived of the aid they need, the weaker they become. I know what I am talking about. That friend (?; who tells you to put off wearing glasses just as long KS possible doesn't. Lost sight is seldom regained, but faulty vision can be cor rected by the proper gln<-es. The part of wisdom will be to take no risk, but have your eye1* examined and tentai HO you may be sure about them. Respectfully, A. C. STRICKLAND. TEETH ?ND TOE NAIL ! - OR - Who Shall and who Shan't! Did you ever ?te a grain of corn thrown to a dozen chickens and see the rough and tumble scramble that took place? and then did you notice one just a little more nimble than the rset awallowed that grain of corn ? In the picture be fore you that nimble fellow is the indom itable C. S. Minor. Did you ever see a lively-looking pig with an ear of corn held tightly between the teeth, plunging rapidly down the lane, and all the common herd tumbling alter, ?quealing for that ear of corn? In the picture before you C. S. Minor is that leading pig. Notice he doesn't stop to eat nor look back at competition, but pushes right on. Did you ever witness a horse race tmd see the one well-rounded, muscular ani mal, with a little more spirit than his fellows, crosses the tape full ten paceB in the lead, while the others cross in a flock, possibly neck for neck, and should er for shoulder. In the picture before you C. S, Minor is that leading horse, and the Ten Cent 8tore is the winner. With merchants the 'ilat day of Au guBt is the last day of the business year. The last spurt is on, and C. S. Minor and the Great and Good Ten Cent Store is first to sniff the goal.
