SgWg* -i ? " - - Legal View of Sunstroke. In fteTreceaft charge of Judge Phil? lips to the jury iu tne United States Circuit Court tu St. Louis the question ?nether death by sunstroke ii due to accident or disease was discussed at length and decided. < ? It arose in connection with an acci? dent insurance policy which had been taken out by a supervising architect. He had a sunstroke which proved fatal. The company refused to pay the policy on the ground that the insured did not come to bis deatu byan accident, and this view was sustained by the C<>urt. Medical authorities were cited to show, that unstroke or heat prostration, iso?sif?k? as a disease. * lt is i. :erm applied to rh? effeets upon the central #e*r??rjsystem, awd through it upon other orgaus of the body, by ex po.-ure to the sun or overheated air." Though most frequent in tropical regions, it i= common io temperate climates during hot weather. Tho popular notion that it "comes like a stroke of lightning from a piercing ray of the sun" is erron? eous "lt .affects persons frequently curing the night, lt often resuhs from overcrowding in quarters, as the case of soldiers in barracks and persons in poorly ventilated rooms. All persons whose employment exposes them to heat more or less intense-such as laundry workers and strokes-are apt to suffer from it in hot seasons." Having thus showed ?Lat it is recog ?\z~i%0a ??s-a>e .-Jadee Phillips pro ce?cea' ?o apply the iuw ry a;^ follows : With what propriety for accuracy, the;e*ore?can this malady be termed an accident any mere than cholera, smali pox, yellow fever - or apoplexy ? lt may be an accident that a person is exposed to it, but the conditions under ! which the human system may be af? fected by it certainly belong to natural causes, which may reasonably be antic? ipated, as they come not by chance. .The term "accident," as used in the policy, is presumed to be employed in its ordinary popular sense, which means .'happening by chance," "unexpectedly taking place," "not according to thc usual course of things " So that a resnlt ordinarily, naturally flowing from tfee conduct^of the party cannot be said to be accidental, even where he may ; not have foreseen the consequences. The same question was once raised in an Kn^rfeb ^s^ail^^ctded the saufe way by Lord Chief Justice Cockburn. N.T. Herald. -- . t * ?. ?Wi - ?et Tnem Speak Out. Picfcens Sentinel. For some time past, the -press and the people of the State have been wait? ing to hear the leaders of the Alliance speak out aird say whether or not, they would stand by the Democratic party in the campaign of 1892. AH interest was centered rn the meeting of the State Alliance, at which time it was said the question would be settled The meeting has been held, and yet the rank and Sie of the order are ' not certain whether they will be required topeare:tbe Democratic party br not. The more light is shed ou the sub treasury plan,jby/yeadtog and discus? sing the merit? of the bill and the dan ger^tiiat is threatened, if they desert the.;eld party of ti^e people," the more our farmers are -disposed7 to hesitate, before they commit themselves to au untiled party and policy, against which they are warned by the best, men of the ermn try. Let those who are recognized os the leaders in the Alliance, and the editorp, that are conducting organs of the order, speakout, and say whether or not the Alliance is Democratic. The "citizens of Mississippi have been vailed upon to settle this question, and the Democracy has won the Sght 3 to 3, and we be? lieve that we are ^afe in saying that the Democracy ' of South Carolina will stand with a solid front in the coto in ^campaign, though there may be a few deserters who will be led away by the-third party advocates. If the Alliance can convert the ma? jority of th s Democratic party to the sub-treasury idea, they migh: insert that sort of a plank io the next plat? form, but if they fail in,that they need ! not talk, third party: for every man that is a Democrat will stand on the j platform arid vote for a no3?inee of the convention. If any one has his mind made up not to support that nominee, if it should be Cleveland, or some other particular man, he is no Democrat aud shoakfoat be recognized as such. Contemporary Opinion. Carolina Spartan. There is a general opinion that a national financial reform is nectary. Let it come in the shape cf a. reform and not as a revolution. The restora? tionpi sijyer to an equality with gold t?nd ' taxpaying off of tb? United States bonds with greenbacks would perhaps expand thc currency sufficiently with? out resorting to."

What is the j matter with the present administration ? ! Then when Newberry County can boast of the two Keitts, father and son. Rep- j reseutatives Sligo, and Brease, Sam ps wo j Pope and many others, ir. is strange j that the editor should be crying fur a j statesman. If he would cross his couu- j ty line he would run against Senator j Hemphill, Bob Aldrich, Heury A Mee.rz, Hon. Godfrey B. Fowler, Josh Ashley and a host of leaders of the people. Theo when it comes to state craft of a peculiarly high order, there is nothing the matter with Col. Talbert. An Old Woman's Blessing. And elderly woman, whose face was drawn wi?h lines of illness, eutered a Fourth Av-'uue car near the Grand Central station the other day. Every .seat was occupied, some of them by men. A gloved band presently rested i on the new arrival's arm, and with a simple, "Hare's a seat for you," the elderly woman - found., herself in a comfortable place vacated for her by a young woman of striking presence and rich ?t ire. The elder protested while she thanked the one who had given up her own for her, but t\:o younger smiled and said it was a pleasure to do I so slight a service. And she looked \ as if she felt it a pleasure. Several i men promptly offered their places to the young woman, but she politely I declined them. ! When the young woman left the car ! further up town every face was turned j j to lood after her. and various kiud and j j ? Ufering remarks were made about j her. S:ruck by the extraordinary j interest taken in ber, the elderly j woman, wno had been the sp?cial j recipient of her graciousness, said to J some one near her : "Yt'U till admire ! her as she deserves, but do you know ! who M?e i??" j **Whv, yes, that was Mrs. Cicve I land," was the response, j "O'?, my, to.think of my taking a i s^at from her!" said the elderly ; passenger regretful 5y\ j 4*We?!, au old woman's blessing j will always go with her,"-New York j Times I The Stare has come successfully j throu^ii what looked at one time to ; rather a tight place.

It will be remembered that two weeks ago The Herald and News pub? lished the proceedings of the County Alliance, and among other things it was stated that a resolution was adopted asking the Liberty Hall Sub-Alliance of this county to rescind certain resolu? tions that had been adopted by this Sub Alliance. Since the meetiDg of the County Alliance the Liberty Hall Sub-Alliance bas met. At this recent meeting Liberty Hall adopted a resolu? tion declining to rescind, as requested by the" County Alliance. What will be the outcome of this we do not pre? tend to say, but Liberty Hall stands by her resolutions and does not grant the request of the County Alliance io this matter. They take the position, we presume, ihat the minority has some rights, and they are right.-Newberry News and Herald. The expenditures for pensions for the fiscal year ending June 30. 1891, as now ofBcially stated, amounted to ?124,415.951 40. In the fiscal year endiner-June 30, 1S90, we paid ?109, 357,534, while in the year before that we paid ??7.644,779 ll. In the past ten years our pension payments have amounted to. ?776.282,100 07 Tbe cost of the German army, it maybe interesting to note, is for this year esti? mated at ?80,979,733.

The immigration Commissioner has decided that Welsh tin-plate workers eau be brought to this country under contract without violating the alien contract law. A more outrageous de cisi?n was never made, but to say noth? ing of that, which is no more than was expected of republican officials, will somebody kindly explain where the benefit to American workingmen comes iu iu making tin-plate io America, if the makers of it are to be imported from Wales? The employment of a large number of Americans in this iudustry would have furnished at least a semb? lance of an excuse for the increase of one dollar a box in the price of tin? plate, which will be entirely lacking when it is known that the so-called American tin-plate is being made by Welchman brought to America for that purpose. This decision was so bad that Secretary Foster had seen the wis? dom af modifying it to a certain extent. The contest for the speakership of the uext House of Representatives seems to be narrowed down between Hoo. Charles F. Crisp, of Georgia, and Hon.
