A Princeton graduate has died of

very rare disease, which he contract

The Democrats in Congress are get
ting down to hard work with a good
will. The members of the party
seem to be^united and are pulling to
gether.

Untie Joe Cannon stands in fear
of the steam roller the Democrats
captured from his party last Novem
ber. If the old sinner behaves him
self sort of decent we . hope he will
escape it.
The Progressive Farmer says it
will be a great day for the South
when there is a general recognition
of the fact that upon the fertility of
Southern lands the permanent pros
perity of the South must be builded.
There have been several killings
lately by ten and twelve year old
boys. The Lake City News thinks
that if a few parents were indicted
as particeps criminis to such homi
cides firearms would not be left so
handy for children to handle.
Th? best special issue of any
county paper we have seen is the
Easter edition of the Greenwood In
dex, which contained 44 pages, col
ored covers, and numerous illustra
tions. Brother Watson knows how
to get. up such things, as well as pub
lish one of the best newspapers in the
State.
A group of convicts who had been
engaged in the work of cleaning the
state house presented to Governor
Bleasd a "joint" petition a 'few days
ago. The men had been recently at
work In the igovernor'6 office, where
a new furnace was installed and a
thorough cleaning was had, so they
felt they had a "call" for clemency.
At last Uncle Joe Cannon's hide
has been punctured. He takes every
reference to his autocratic perform
ance!1 as former speaker seriously and
"rises to a question of personal priv
ilege" But Uncle Joe may as weil
realise that he is down and out for
all time. Even the interests that he
served so well can't restore him to
power.
A bill has been passed by the Cal
ifornia Legislature and signed by the
Governor of that State providing that
in ciise of a conviction for non-sup
port a husband many be sentenced to
jail ,md be required to work on the
public roac's or other public works.

Thursday was the fiftieth anniver
sary of the firing of the Confederate
forti and batteries in Charleston har
bor on Fort Sumter, which surren
dered two days later. As a boy, the
editor of The Times and Democrat
witnessed the greater part of this
memorable battle from the battery
in Charleston, in which city he lived
during the entire war.
The Times and Democrat intended
no olfence to any one by saying Mr.
Fricay would make a good run for
the Legislature. Nor did we make
the suggestion on behalf of Mr. Dlb
ble'is friends, as we are not author
ized to speak for them. We simply
mentioned Mr. Friday in connection
with the Legislature because we
heard that he would probably be a
candidate for a seat in that body.
Ciamp Clark did not drive those
Missouri mules down Pennsylvania
avenue, but he took charge of af
fair:; in the House all right and is
running things on schedule time. But,
as the Hendersonville Hustler says,
he is a princely old gentleman, open
and frank in his dealings with fel
low members, and will hold the
scales of justice evenly. There is to
be no czar rule while he occupies
the chair.
The female teachers in New York
have won their fight and will receive
as 'arge salary as male teachers
of tike grades. We agree with the
Lake City News that this is entirely
proper. There never was any reason
for the discrimination against women
which is seen eveywhere. Woman is
con ing into her own?lawfully hers.
She is being emancipated from her
abominable slavery and she is mak
ing good in every sphere in which she
works by the side of man.
Robbing Cotton Farmers.
The New Orleans Cotton Exchange
charges that a combine on tho part
of the jute bagging and cotton tie in
terests are being fOTmed.for the pur
pose of further robbing the cotton
farmer by raising the tariff duty on
these articles, and calls on Cougres;?
to put them on the free list. This
the Democrats in the House has done,
and it is to be hoped that they will
be enabled to enact it into law.
It is changed by the Exchange that
with a cotton crop of twelve million
bales, a yearly toll of approximately
a million dollars is paid by the farm
ers to the government and to the
bagging and tie trusts. That tha tr.
| riff is almost prohibitive, is indic.'itfll
by the fact that no ties are imported,
and that the tariff on imported bag
>ging yields only ?.l00,000 to the gov
ernment. The remainder of the mil
lion, or about $900,0 .,0 is the contri
bution of the southern farmers each
year to the bagging and tie interes-s
of the nation, brought about by the
high tariff allowed under the Repub
lican administration.
These facts are admitted, but it
is claimed tha* the trusts are not
yet satisfied. I; is alleged thak there
Is a combination among the bigging
and tie manufacturers of the country
to have increased the duties on these
articles, so as not only to make the
tariff absolutely prohibitive, but to
allow an even higher price to he
charged the farmers for these neces
sary articles of cotton poduction. In
this way. the toll levied upon the
southern farmer by the bagging and
tie interests will be heavier and great
er than ever before.
The Greenville News says "in ad
dition to the present condition of the
tariff, and the alleged future state of
things^ unless the action is fore
staged', there is the added injustice
of iscrimination between southern
and western farmers, to the misfor
tune of former class of agriculturists.
Binder twine, which is a great factor
in the wheat and other grain crops
of the western fields, Is on the free
list, and consequently the western
farmer, whose principal crops are
those which are bound with twine, is
free from the toil to the trusts."
On the other hand, the Southern
cotton farmer, whose largest crop is
that which must be bound in bagging
and ties, pays heavy tolls on both
jute bagging and cotton ties. This
discimination is made in favor of the
Western farmer because he votes the
Republican ticket while the Southern
farmer votes the Democratic ticket.
It is time the plundering of the
Southern farmer for the benefit of
the trusts should cease, and we hope
, the present congress will be patriotic
j enough to do it.
The Lorimer Tragedy.
"Michael Lick, who was indicted
for perjury in the Lorimer case and
turned State's evidence, was found
dead Tuesday. Apoplexy killed him.
He had expected death, arranged his
affairs for it, warned his friends.
There can be little doubt that his
connection with the scandal of Lori
mer had shortened his lite. In com
menting on the- Lorimer tragedy as
it calls It, the New York World says:
"It is useless, the attempt to take a
flight on flippant view of this matter.
It is a ghastly tragedy of Amencan
politics. Link lies dead of it. With
the $2,500 that he deposited to his
credit in Chicago, Holstlaw accepted
and must always feel the contempt
of those who had respected him as
the banker of a little country town.
White and Beckemeyer, self-con
fessed takers of bribes, find their
avowal no jest. Browne, who wore
the blue belt stuffed with bank-bills
about his waist, and Manny Abra
hams, the bell-wether of the bribed,
can scarcely er joy their public promi
nence.
Suave, smiling and cynical, the
man whose tri .mph has cost so much
anguish and shadowod so many
homes still site in the Senate. Ha
was chosen in Springfield by the mys
terious votes of 53 Democrats and
only 48 of hi'.' own party membars.
In Washingtor 22 out of 57 Senaio'
of his party faith voted to deprive
him of his seat. That is the title by
which he holds. Is it good enough?
in view of the new testimony brought
out at Springfield?for the present
Senate?" There is only one consola
tion and that is the people will scon
choose the Senators themselves, and
then such men as Lorimer wiT be
scarce in' the United States Senate.
The days of the boodles is drawing to
a close.
Bryan Was Right.
Under the above caption, the York
ville Enquirer says: "In a coruro
versy between men like Mr. Bryan
and Mr. Bailey, especially in such a
matter as the selection of a leader
of the large democratic minority in
the senate during the present crucial
perio'"., we are unreservedly with Mr.
Bryan. Mr. Bryan is a great anu
able man< beyond question, and al
though only a private citizen is far
more representative cf the democrats
of the nation or even of Texas than
Mr. Bailey. Mr. Bailey and hi*? kino
have won in the present instance,
temporarily at least; but unless
things go Mi. Bryan's way, as conr
pared with Mr. Bailey's within the
next few months, the democrat wili
stand a poor show? i very poo~ show,
of retaining domination even of the
house of representatives. Tw'.st and
turn it as wo may, the present situa
tion is largelv due t> triumph of tlie
labors of Mr. Bryan." The Enquirer
is right, and what is more, the people
of the country are looking to Bryan
to lead them in the paths they should
so to reach true, permanent p-osper
ity. Beside Bryan, Bailey cuts a
!sorry figure.
Those folks who imagine for one
j moment that Bryan is dead politically
I are deluding themselves. His recent
reception in Washington proves this.
'Mr. Bryan has not succeeded in his
personal aspirations, but there are
abundant evidences to show the real
satisfaction he has experienced dur
ing recent y-^ars, in seeing "his poli
cies," adopted by the American peo
pie and their representatives in con
gress. The greatest private citizen
in the United States today is William
Jennings Bryan.

This is the compliment that one

of the real method behind our bus

Primarily this business makes the
prescription department the main
object of its care.. Experts check
every prescription and our large

vain. Every new and worthy drug is
immediately bought and plajced on
our shelves so that we need never
say "we are just out of it," but
we say, "We have it now."
