Wednesday, if ay 2<5. : : 1890 The census should have been taken; but in that event very probably theory would have been raised against "useless extravagance." Where one wishes to grumble it is not hard to find a pretext. The Charleston World says that in Abbeville recently 3771 votes were cast of which more than 2300 were for TT *1.,. ur.-l.i iltiuiail. HOW IIIUUll UUUS MHT ffl/liu. wish to lx*t either that 3771 Democrats voted, or thut 2800 voted for Tillman?, Is the World prepared to prove that 1000 Democrats attended the meetings? Does the World know thut in Abbeville XV _ 1 - 1 - ^ XI 1. ?*.> me ueiegaies ui cjmju quu iuw i^o enrolled membership in the Convention, regardless of the number of members at the meeting. A club may have a roll of 200 members; yet a dozen may meet and send delegates to cast 200 votes. The World has not been long established.

Fairfield look off the county prize last )ear :?i ihe State fair and she can do it again if she will only try. Of cont>e it will not be a* easily done next year, for the probabilities are that more counties will enter the race. Competition will be lively; but if our farmers will just pull togetherand join the. Institute the comity can carry off j the $250 thi* year. Below is given] what Col. Thomas W. lioiJoway says in his circular on the subject. It will be observed that the premiums have bsen increased. On pane 10 of the premium list of this society *or the present \e:ir will be found the olfer of premium* amonutiiiv in the aggregate to $500, for the counties making the bc>t display of county products to be shown at the fair November 10, 1890. The requirements are: To the county making the best ami largest display ot products grftirn >r produced by residents ??r the county, premiums will be awarded as fdlows: Fir*t premium... $250 6ecoi.tt premium 150 Third premium 100 In :tl! $500 Now let every one who has county pride go :t? work in earnest to .vin the first premium. The winning of these premiums i< a good advertisement for the county and in benefitting the county it will help the individual ciii mm "" me- ?coirrnoncors"" help in a two-fold way. By contribut'njf to the success of the Institute, they stimulate agriculture at hewn.* -nul ht> fiirwnrcliiKr llio pyhihits of the Institute to the fair, and taking off (he county priz*, they let others see what there is in the Mil* of Fairfield. It is Time to Act. What are yon going to do about that school matter? Close the door? of Mr. Ziou? It is.not like the pe p!e of \Viiiu?boro 10 accept such u downfall, as that would b?', with impunity, yet, passively, they seem to give their concern. It is not like them, above all others, to invite such consequences as must ne<*<*ssari!y ensue on shutting the , doors of our school. It is not like thorn to blow out the lamp which has been burning on the hill so long, from ( whose fl:mie a rav falls into almost i jn, every family circle. It is u??t tike , tliern to depreciate the high principle which distinguished their ancestors, that "education is the strongest cement j of the State," and in living upon which , they lived be>ond the thought of their ( age. It is not like them to detract one ( tittle from that which tends to in- ( crease knowledge, and its twin sisters | culture and refinement, which have , been such notorious elements "n the ( history of the people of thi< very his- , toric town. It is not like them to pull ^ to ruin themselves the bulwark which J stood i?;vulnerable to the torch and tiery darts of two iuvading foe?, as } though its walls were too high for an ? em my to scale, defying even the wings j of an AtK>lIvon, and too hard for an ? * * V enemy to penetrate. No, it is not like ? them to .Mijure Mount Zion which has ^ seemed to dc-ly destruction by an j enemy. It has been left safely in the ^ hands of its it tends. What will its r friends iow do with it? The funds will soon have been exhausted, and the time for action is now. Will you act speedily, and show that you are not willing to discard that noble sentiment, "education is the strongest cement of the State" upon which alone > may we hope to build a foundation for a prosperous and happy community? To do otherwise is not like the people of Winnsboro, and an abiding faith in r them convinces us that they will take j hold of this matter and coutiuue the t * good -work now in progress at the old c school. f Is Consumption Incurable? ? Read the following: Mr. C. II. Morris, f Newark, Ark., says: "Was down with Abscess of Lungs, and friends and physi- t cians pronounced me an Incurable Con- c sumptive. Began taking Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption, am now on 11 my third" bottle, and able to oversee the y work on my farm. It b> the finest medicine ever made." i 0 Jesse Middlewart, Decatur, Ohio, says : n "Had it not been for Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption I would have died | of Lung Troubles. Was given up by I doctors." Am now in best of health." Try X it. Sample bottles free at MeMaster, Brice % & Ketchin's Pr.is Store. * 1 Let Tkein Coirn*. I While we generally concur wiih ihe Register in its political views we can not agree with it that our Senators and Congressmen have nothing Jo do with the pending campaign and that they should keep their hands ? ff and let the people settle the i-Mie. This is an issne for ihe people; but our Senators and ue,-resci.ruives urei part of the people no less than the humblest citizen, with their duties and responsibilities as members of I he party is no way lessened by the tact that they live mo*t of the year in Washington. These men are put in high places because the people have respect for their ability, and confidence in their judgment. To say that their mouths must be sealed, that their constituents shall not have the riyht not only to require an account of tluMr stewardship but to demtud advice on grave issue*, is to say that party affairs must be managed by lesser lights or men less experienced in pnblio allairs. The trouble to-day is that for the past ten years at least there ha-s been no political instruction. Preliminary discussion of a high order has been abandoned. Senators and Congressmen have been silent, State officer* have held their peace, except on lare occasions. The government lias made little effort to put itself tn rapport willi the people, done little to secure for its measure* popular sympathy. At the same time every cros< road has resounded with the speeches of ?fficf seekers, many of who.n, without themselves understanding the issues have given a wrong coloring to the whole poiilical situation, and have taught the people t* look for wrongs that do not exi>t, an 1 to expect remedies impoviple of execution. In this confmion, how welcome oln.nt/1 Vwv ? Iia Aitltti o Pirn. oui.'uiu ut iitc v*auu uiopao.'iv/uai^ tu^u mem of a broad statesman, pointing out fallacies, justifying the ways ot the Democratic parly, and allaying discontent? . Senators should not, it i> true, intervene in a ruere personal competition between two or more individua's for party hon >rs, but where there is a cla?.h of policies, where there are accusation* ot wrong, it is their doty to speaK as Democrats on the situation. Lastly, it lias become a reproach that our leading men are s> non-committal. They are charged with sitting on the fence?with fearing to utter their thoughts lest they lose vote-. Most of Tillman's strength coiu^s from th<; fact that ha has talked out in nuetitig>-. !l?d there been full ?1i?oussiou four >? *!'* agf, unci two \ I'Hi'j* a:M>, there vuuUt not i>e (his on fusion to day. Bv all means let us hear from every body. Let our Sena.ors and Representatives feel that they are a mere part and parcel ot the South Carolina Democracy and cannot sit up in Washington securely while the strife goes ou at ln>me. Bring them down. They will both teach and iearn something. Itepnblican Schemes The average man has an idea that any discussion pertaining to national affairs is very abstruse. He thinks for instance that this tariff, a creature or the li.-piibiican party, is far off from . hint, unil its effects so ruim^- < rt j TUffe co~u<x'rnsTiim. 1'here can be no ; doubt of the fact tint the pK?ple of South Carolina arc it.if -?s Uia roughly educated on iiati .ua! i-riics a;< they { were before ?hc war. e?|.e- ially in the day* of Calhoun.

The-e were of cour>e <jre?r ?ei>o <1> by the highways for the tuiue .;j >=i of the i mantes. The war came with 'ta tie- J moralizing influence. A new 1 ration has grown up s-ince then. * Many of the present voter- have not had the privilege of attending, fre- < quently, these seats of education at the ( nros> road*. Their fathers were left ! poor by the war, and many <>1* them j did not get what little training in 1 these questions one gtts from a college I ? I I.. ..A 5 euucairon. .\?uni jr:iuru\ :uici uic 7 war came Radical rule, and our people j were forced to sink into political ] lethargy. They seemed powerless, * iud when they did rise they were * concerned, in the main, with the affairs ^ >f the State. So ovsr this long period i jircum.*tances have been such that the 1 people not only grew indifferent to 1 national affairs, but had become nnacjuainted with the t'undimeutal principles which now distinguish the two jreat political parties. This is true of ; nany other States. . The people over the whole country ffere never so full awakened as ihey ire now, they are beginning to pry nto what Congress is doinjr, the r tAiinlft* 10 iLtAtiitwr /loKofn^ ?mw joing on in (Jongr-is*. There are t jrave problems to be solved. The ? I1 Republican leaders are aware of the 5 >ronounced public interest in the tariff e low at full swing, and the Re- d mblican leaders and the Republican c sewspapers are trying to pass the j? klcKinlev bill with as little noise as 0 . :li? fn. ... ...i 4~ -l:~ -c IUS61U1C* X LLC> ? dllC IU UUl VIA Ul$- J. :ussion, and rush the bill through c without the least possible atnouut of ^ lebate. They don't want a fanner ike Mr. A. or Mr. B. who is a mem- tl >er of oue of our Prize Clubs know E hat it is the Republican policy to take ^ uoney raised by taxation and pay it to f, dr. U. in Pennsylvania lor mating a race chains for his own private profit; ?r pay it to Mr. D. in Massachusetts or weaving cloth oat of the cotton of ilr. A. and B.. members of the Prize s) c /lab. Oh, uo, they don't want you a aimers to see the injustice af paying b he manufacturer of your cotton into t'( ioth, and yet not pay you anything s< or making the cot'on. They don't ^ rant to put you and the manufacturer d: n equal footing in a free and open oi _ _ :mrKet. This isn't the whole, however, cfthe lepublican program. They are get- I ing desperate now. Thev propose to ? hrottle the Toice of the people by g treating a Republican national returning board tbat shall cotir.t in a Re publican majority in the House ot Representatives whether elected or not by the people. The counting * board will rule the electoral college, 1 without any consideration for the re- : suit at the polls. * It is intended by the Republicans to 1 completely revolutionize all former legislative and judicial practices, and : claim that Con<rre>a has the power to ^ fix tlie boundries of Congressional 1 Districts, and to take away from our Legislature the power ot apportion ment, and to *ay what shall be the ; methods of choosing Presidential electors. All this is unconstitutional of course, but that makes no difference to the Republican party, you know. It : is in power now, and it will go a long ; wu\ s to keep in. It has done uueon- slitmional things before thi< for the pin pose of keeping their hands in the, ,_ !< pie, ami it will not Hesitate now to no anything in i?s desperation to maintain controi of the nation. The nartv is Willing to nacraliee even thing of benefit to the people for a few rich uunu- 1 facturers who have accumilated wealth under the fostering care of ihe tariff, ^ and have made no compensation to the ' government unless it be called a com- ] pensation to contribute to the cam- . paigh fund of the party which has fed them with the taxes paid by the people ana wnico u 11 c^numies iimcn longcr will bankrupt the tax payers. So all 1 iu all national affairs urn of <;reat J moment just now. The people must ] rise in their might. Thev inu^t assert ' their rights immediately and in no un- 1 certain sound. The party in power ( will try to tie people's hands by the authority of the government itself. COL UJfli [A XE M'S. ' ( Columbia, S. 0.. May 2C.?Spring { fever is all the rage nowadays, every . one has it and every one wants to be ( rid of it. The disease inav not be well known in red clay Fairlicld, and fear- . ing that we may be misunderstood we ( will say that the disease is only a form ( of laziness consequent upon this season of the year. The only ones exempt from the trouble here arc the base ball players and the employees at the < State House. The former are too in- : tent upon their sport to mind the : weather and the latter, among' the dust and rubbish consequent upon their < repairing of the State House, arc too busy granting charters for the various ' enterprises being organized in the ] State and watching the progress of the Tillman campaign to think of any thing else. Speaking of the Tillman campaign the feeling here is that it lias reached < its zenith and is now* on the wane; 1 that it is not as strong as it was three < weeks ago. There are some adherents : here however and Mr. P. J Rucker, 1 eays that Mr. Tillman will carry < the fourth ward. This is not probable though. A large number of Columbians will go down to Eastover on the 28th to hear Mr. Tillman and Col. Dargan who it is said will speak there 011 that day. The Fairfield boys, together with all the other students at the University, are preparing for the final examinations, which commence in :i week from date. There are ?>n T,'<irfiel<l "* -"J- .rciixor class but there are ' some in the lower classes that will 1 hold up the banner of the county. Columbia is still growing iu* every way and this can be shown in no better way than by the increasing number of churches and church nifcmbership. ' The Baptists have commenced to 1 build a second church and when it is ' finished there will be two Presbyter- j uin, two Jttetliodist, two Episcopalian, , two Lutheran, two Baptist, one Catholic and several chapels and mission stations of the different denomination's. < The above named are churches for ; the whites and there are an almost ( jqual number for the negroes. In the ast six months the membership of the ( First Presbyterian church has been I increased by 65 members. Other ( churches have increased in like proportion. One of the latest enterprises thought 2 )f in Columbia is :i car shop. Two < different parties have been working up ;he scheme at the same time. Messrs. < riiornwell JM.cMa.ster and J. H. Green lave moved along- quietly and have J jonded eight acres of land for this J mrpose and have raised some sub- ] icription towards the capital stock. l Without knowing that these gentlemen lad such a project in view Col.

The late frost did not deprive us of all the fruit; some peaches and apples remain. The oats crop is not good.

To the Editors of Tin: Xeics nn<l Herald: Three v.ceks have passed since the annual picnic at Catawba Falls, and having: seen nothing- except probably a mere mention of it in the IIki: \li>. will you please to allow us space in its columns to note a few impressions made on our minds that day. Karly in the morning, crowds from York, Chester, Fairfield and Lancaster counties began to arrive, riding horse back, in buggies and by all other modern means of traveling, such as. walking, road carts and etc. The crowd continued to grow larger, until about 11 o'clock, when the banks of the Cataw ba, ami the hill sides adjoining, were marked ami beautified, by the presence of small parties, every few paces apart from which arose merry words and smiles and hearty laughter. Nature has so arranged affairs that our happiness may not overflow, and instead of having all happiness or all woe it is a mixture. "If where pleasure's wing hath glided, There ever must some fan;; remain," and the picnic at the Falls, was by no means an exception to the truth so beautifully expressed, in the lines quoted by "the ladies poet," for when the hour for dinner arrived the rainfall lipo-m from threatening clouds, that had promised a shower since early morning. Instead of a shower only it seemed to set ?in for a day's rain and every place of shelter was soon crowded; every umbrella was in service ; but even these were insufficient to protect the ladie's spring suits from the rain, and not a few were without protection entirely. TV'c feel sorry for a lady when we sec her wet?she looks so out of fashion, and our sympathies arc more sensibly touched, on the grounds that a damp lady feels worse than she looks, and we know she must feel very badly. "We are sorry that the rain was not the only interruption to mar the enchantment of the day. There was an evil present 011 that occasion, that is a true and tried enemy to nil that is uooie, ana true and good, which every true lady should regret much more than the dishevelecf ringlets, or her soiled satin; one whicti, when l?-*r prc-m c-i l"aiN to check, she shtni! I si ray 'ar ti o'n its haum.-, therein resinning in a way becoming to ihc p->si ion which she occupies in sodft\ and the church of God. The?e aie insult* to h**r, society and civilization, for they are indeed insults n> >ocic'y and civilisation, since in lands where civilization has never dawned woman, the grandest ami i?e.-t ot an Lrous creation?, is made the slave of him with whom her lot is cast, and whose presence is ignored in>tead of being respected. This t-vi 1 we need not mention, but Would it not be advisable for the ladies not to attend the j.-ic??ic next year? We know some who will not. AlJXElt. uost -riling; Jl?- Ever Saw.
