President McKinley is a Methodist,
and there are three Presbyterians,
oneCongregationalist one In
dependent, one Unitarian, and one
Catholic in l.i> Cabinet.
The delude in the Mississippi
valley continues unabated. An
area half as large as the entire
state of South Carolina is under
f
water and the river still contin
ues to rise.
A man must be something to
make himself nothing. Your bank
president will be polite to a day-laborer,
but the little dollar a-day
clerk whe has been promoted for
half hour to take the teller's place
at the window will turu up his
nose at an archbishop.
President McKinley's message
to congress and the bill appropriating
two hundred thousand
dollars for the relief of the Missis
sippi flood sufferers are both very
commendable. If ever there was
a time when an approbation was
needed, it is now, and it is to be
hoped that the money will be
used to advantage.
The Pev. Elbert O. Taylor, of
Oak Park, 111., has predicted
frt\m (ho nut nit. thnt unless there

is a mighty improvement in the
caliber of the men chosen for
high places in the government,
the United States will, in twentyfive
years be in be bands of women
and there will be a woman
President at the capital.
Nswspaper men are blamed for
a lot of things they cannot help;
such as partialsty in mentioning
visitors and giving news about
some folks and leaving ont others,
etc. They simply print the news
they can find. An editor should
not be expected to know the
, names and residences of your uncles,
aunts and coosins, even if be
does see them get off the train
Tell him about it. It's news that
makes a newspaper, and every
man, woman and child in the
neighborhood could be associate
editors if they woald.
A farmer in Iowa has invented
a method whereby he keeps his
neighbor's cows from stealing his
hay. He described it thus: "A
certain quadruped had a sweet
tooth for our haystack and did
much more damage, throwing
down a seven rail fence and roosting
in our hay. We bpught a box
of cayenne pepper, took a ui< e
lock of hay, placed it outside,
"baptised" it with pepper and
watched. The animal came along
and pitched into the hay, when
suddenly she took the hintT and,
with nose 45 degrees and tail at
90 degrees, her soul went 'marching
on,' at the rate of 2.40. That
cow has not come back."

The Carolina Spartan, Speaking
of the recent decision by
Judge Simonton against the dispensary
law, says: "There has
been much bungling work done
by the Legislature in endeavoring
to patch ifp the law. The
worst feature is that they have
taught the people that it is right
to secure a certain result by indirwfjon
hnd Legislative legerde
main. Fair, honest, manly legisiation
will lend to make loyal,
law abiding citizens, who will
obey the laws and respect the
lawmakers. But when Legislators
resort to expediences, political
manoeuvering and the tricks of
shysters and pettifoggers to deceive
the people, or bolster pu a
bad cause, or to cover up some
of their bad work, then they lower
the standard of citizenship and
teach people to disregard and violate
law."

Mr. Dingley makes on the floor
jot the House the remarkable assertion
that the burden of restored
McKinley rates will fall chiefly
on "the schedules covering luxuries
like tobacco, liquors, silks
and laces."'
Against this we have the figures
of Mr. Dingley's own summary
of the effects of the bill, made on
1 - - II L .
the latu mat. "f rom sugar," ne
says, "we estimate $20,000,000
additional revenue." "We place
the increased from wool at $11,000,000.
Anticipating that the
imports of woolens will fall off
nearly 50 per cent, from the enor:
mous imports of 1896, we esti;
mate the increased revenues from
'this source under the proposed
rates at $14,000,000."
This is a total of $25,000,000
1 increase in the taxes on wool and
woolens admitted by Mr. Dingley.
The table which he published in
this connection showed that his
taxes on wool and woollens, on
the basis of last year's importations,
would be $44,500,000, as
against only $1,500,000 on silks,
$1,800,000 on liquors and $7,000,000
on tobacco.
So it appears from Mr. Dingley's
own figures that for every dollar
of increase on silks, liquors and
tobacco combined he has made $4
of increase ou wool and woolen
goods alone. In the face of such
facts, how absurd it is for him to
keep up the idle false pretense
l
that be is attempting to relieve
the masses or to force the users of
luxuries to bear their share of the
burdens of taxation. New York

How To Find Out.
Fill a bottle or common glass
with urine and let it stand twenty
four hours; a sediment or settling
indicates an unhealthy condition
of the kidneys. When orine stains
linen it it positive evidence of kidney
trouble. Too frequent desire
to urinate or pain in the back, is
also convincing proof that the kidneys
and bladder are out of order.
WHAT TO DO.
There is comfort in the knowledge
so often expressed, that Dr
Kilmer's Sw?mp-Root, the great
kidney remedy fulfills every wish
in relieving pain in the back kid
neys, liver, bladdler and evers
part of the urinary passagger. It
corrects inability to hold urine
and scalding pain in passing it, 01
bad effects following use of liouor,
wine or beer, and overcomes that
unpleasant necessity of being compelled
to get up many times during
the night to urinate- The
mild and the extraordinary effect
of Swarop-Koot is soon realized.
It standsthe highest for its wonderful
cures of the most distressing
cases. If you need a mediicins
von should have the best.
Sold by druggist, price fifty ecnts
