Quite a number cf h* friend" !
of the County Record have calYd
on us this week, and made otir
heart glad by tossing into our ex I
chequer the almighty American
"tin."
Comptroller-General .las. Norton
handed Governor Ellerbe his
resignation last Friday and the |
, Governor at once announced thai j
he would appoint Mr. L t' fcpton ,
to succeed him. This was gener- i
ally expected by those who k?>ew J
anything about the matter al ,
though Gov. Ellerbe had never
aid be would appoint that gentleman,
The appointment is a
/ good one, and the new Comptrol
Jer will no doubt create a favor h
able impression.

Mr. L P Epton, auditor of Spaj
% tanbury county, the ne vlv ap.;
pointed Comptroller-General, is a |
man who is very popular in his:
section. Some years ago he lost
an arm in a threshing machine. He j

Mr. Brewton, who succeeds Mr. j
Eptoa, as Spartanburg's auditor,
is a conservative and has
been employed in the sheriff's office
for some time. It is said that
his appointment will give general
.satisfaction.

President Mckinley has appointed
Gen. James Longstreet to
the position of railroad Com mis
aioner to succeed Gen. Wade
? Hampton. All South Carolinians
would have been delighted
- to have seen Hampton retained
I by the President, but that execu.live
owed Hampton nothing
!?^while to Longstreel both he and
S.lris party were indebted heavily,
p*. As a soldier Longstreet was as
much admired by Southeners as
; Hampton, and, indeed, made as
good a soldier. After the hostili
ties ceased, Gen. Longstreet allied
feJjjiNnself with the Republican party
hand t has sacrificed all his former
associates. Truly this sacrifice
should have been rewarded by
his party
Mr. H Cowper Patton, a niemberofthe
House from Richland
county, introduced in the House
its last session, a bill to redis
L ^trict the State, which bill was car
ft'- - - ... i
ned over and is still on the calen\
dar, and will come up for final
disposition at the next session.
J Mr. PattO'i, in a conversation with
- reporter for: the Columbia Kegisler
one day last week said that he
bad received numerous letters
from members who opposed his
bill at the last session who now
^ say they intend to support it next
year, and he firmly believes that
the bill will become a law before
the next election for Congressmen
g from this State. The bill now on
t tb? calendar places the counties of' Georgetown,
Williamsburg, Char '
lest on and Berkeley in one dis-1
. trict. ihese four counties to com- J j
' prise the entire district. This will j (
do away with the division of our;
eoqnty as it is now. Mr. Patton
Vjrtber said to the reporter t hat he J'
h*l made up another bill which !
be proposed to substitute for his
rigiM bill which he thinks will
E& >-J. '> *-.v .
meet w ith a irreat deal more favor
than <he one now on the calendar.
This hill makes one district to he
made up as follows: Marlboro
Marion, Uorrv. (teorjielown, Flor
enre Clarendon and Williann?
lilt r^.
incase the hill i- passed.either
the original or tiie substitute. it
will place some of our people
anions new neijrhbors when it
comes to Congressional elections.
The Term "Rebel"
Tliow liii< wpiiI Iv hotin f? ?rtvn?il
amount of newspaper talk in regard
to the word "rebel'ion'' re
lating to the war between the
Slates which occured in one ol
the questions recently sent out bv
the State board of education As
for us we heartIv concur with Mi
Hugh Wilson, tne editor of the
Abbeville I'ress and Banner, when
he savs the following, which occurred
in the last issue of his pa
per:
Every soldier of the Lost Cause
must ft el proud of any part which
he may have taken in the greatest
of ail the battle?hose b?
lween the South and Murth.
While we respect the prejudices
and convictions of those who cb
ject to the word "RebeF and
while we fully believe in their p i
triotism ana in their di>ire to
honor those who fought for the
Lost Cause, yet, as far as this
editor is concerned, we have no
objection to the word "Rebel."
According to our way of thinking
it is the word, above all others
of which Southerners should be
proud. W e "rebelled" against
actual or imaginary grievances,
and no people ever fought with
more determination or were ever
more true to their convictions.
Of course there may be vemon
and misrepresentation in relating
the history of the word "rebel."
It may be used in a way that may
be o'Vnsive lc> truth and contrary
the doctrins of good manners,
but as a plain historical fact, there
is no word that so clearly justifies
the action of the south. Rebel,
rebellion and similar words convey
the idea within themselves that
there was " rung at the hand of an
actual or imaginary oppressor.
We conceive "Rebellion" to be
quite a different word Irotn insurrection."
Without "Rebel," what would
we do with the Rebel Yell,"and
"Johnie Reb?"
We appreciate the motive that
would save the Confederate sol
diers from odium or censure, hut
as for the little part that this editor
took in that strnggle, we ac
cept the term "Rebel" with pride.
We are very proud of b mg a
aRebel,v and we are more proud
of the little part in which we act
ed, but have no word of complaint
to make against those who object
to the wore. Rebel. The word "Ke
bellion,*'carries with it the idea
oi honor in resisting oppression
and we are willing to be forever
counted as a Rebel against wrong.
That word could not be used, ex
cept with idea that wrong was be
ing imposed, and that it was resented.

Every day strengthens the belief of eminent
physicians that impure blood is the
oause of the majority of our diseases.
Twenty-fire years ago this theory was used
as a basis for the formula of Browns'Iron

by this famous old household remedy are
sufficient to prove that the theory iscorreet.
Browns' Iron Bitters is sold by all dealers.
