re is involved in a marriage ceremony
which was celebrated in the
parlors of the Mansion House of
this city shortly after <? o'clock this
morning. I ho rout carting parties
were Miss Susie Walker of Spartanburg
anil L t!ny Harris, son of Wilforil
J. Harris, the well known merchant
of the same city. The briilc
left her home in Spartanburg before
1 f
the break of ilay this morning ami
joiiYfd the man of her choice, who
was accompanied by several friends.
rpon their arrival in this city a
messenger was despatched for a
preacher, hut in the meantime the
ceremony was performed by ltev. !.
Ii. Yuss, who hap])ened to arrive at
the hotel on the same train. Thev
left at once for Atlanta on a bridal
trip. This is the second marriage
of Mr. and Mrs. Harris. Their lirst
marriage was celebrated several years
ago and created quite a sensation in
Spartanburg and all over the State
They were each about 1(5 years of
aire then and eloped and were mar
lied l>y a justice of the peace. The
parents of the bride objected to the
marriage, contending that it was
not legal, the bride being under age.
The directors of the State Exchange,
of the Farmers' Alliance provided
for bagging for every member
of the Alliance in this State at a
meeting here on Tuesday afternoon.
The purpose of the meeting was to
make arrangements for supplying
bagging for the present crop of cotton
of the Alliance members.
The State business agent was authorized
to contract with large antijute
firms for the necessary amount,
which is expected to he 2,000,000
yards of any kind of substantial
bagging, so, if not jute, will he taken.
The hoard recommends that neillier
new or second hand jute bagging
be used by the Alliance members
under any consideration.
The purchase of the bagging is to
be made on the same principle as
other transactions of the State Exchange.
It is to be delivered in installments
from the loth of August
to the 15th of November. The
County business agents will receive
orders from the sub alliances for so
many yards of bagging. These orders,
accompanied by 50 per cent, in
cash, will he sent to Mr. Donaldson,
who will then send on tlv money
and order the amount of bagging
wanted in each County. The bagging
will be shipped to the County
agent ordering it and by him will be
distributed. By the time the last
installment of bagging is received
the alliance members will have paid
for their bugging.

The Senate aiul i I -i Silver llill.

The action of the Senate on the
free coinage silver question was very
declared on the whole. Though
there may'he some qualifying proviii...

administration may take advantage
of, wo arc inclined to think that the
vote of the Senate on the linal pass I .
, 1
ago of the bill with all its* amend
inonts is too doclaivd and divisive* to
admit of any tampering with tlio
bill should it become a law as it
in M
stands, forty two to twenty-live
shows IT votes majority, which is too
decided a majority of the States to
escape the earnest attention of tliei
House or the Kxcontivo in future,
dealings with the silver question.
In the final vote, the South cast
22 votes in favor of the hill; thej
Northwest and I'aeific States cast IS '
votes and the North 2. Against free'
coinage the North cast 1 I votes, the
Northwest and I'aeilie States ti and
. I
the South 2. It will he thus -seen j
that the West stood two to one for]
free coinage; the South eleven tonne. 1
or almost unanimous, whilst the!
North stood seven to one against free
coinage.
The is-oie then on I lie . silver niie<
lion stands squarely between the
West and South on I In* one side and

Mr. Kdmund's silly partisan pro- j
test that "the Senate?was handing j
the finances of the country over t<>
the control of the Ilenioerats" is
rather thin when the Republican
West cast within four vot^s of what
the Democratic South did for maun
milled silver.
The measure can in no sense he i
claimed as a I >cinocratio one. As
Senator Wolcott of ( olorado juit it
for the West: "The silver hill was
of far greater importance than the
election hill, the anti "jerrymandering
hill or the tarill hill." "In view
of it party lines were obliterated and
forgotten; and the South and the;
West met on common ground anima-1
ted hy a common and-patriotic purpose."
We do not know that we can say
that the silver bill is of more moment j
to us than the tariff and the election j
law questions, but it is none the less
of great importance* to the South as
well as the West, and wc are more
than willing to bury the hatchet on
this momentous financial question
ami vole with the great West without
reference to party lino*.

wonts.
It is true the licf/ishr has ever
held that no man, whatever his service,
whether in the field or forum,
ran ever reach that point where he is
of n'ti/it entitled to office. That
must remain at all times for t he poo
pie to say f??r I heinsel ves, without
(pialitication or restraint. Therefore
sliotiId wo allow any set of men,
however honorable their service,
to take precedence of their felloweiti/.ens
so that other men must necessarily
gel behind them, this is a
sort of precedence which we are unwilling
to yield to any man as his
rhjht. It is none the less honorable
to the people Jof the South, other
(himjx ht imj it/mi/, that tliev have
refused to ignore the services of tlteir
veteran volunteers in the late terrible
conflict. Hut in this matter, as
in all others, we should not allow
honorable sentiments to betray lis into
hero-worship. The scarred veteran
is no more entitled to lead us in
t lie wrong direct ion than any other
man, however much we may venerate
him as a man. No man has the
right to east his sword or his military
reputation in the balances against
truth and justice. It is not every

we may refuse to make idol* out of
