February 11. : : 1891 It i? hoped that the committee in charge of the Columbia centennial will in?i:c ex-President Clevelaud. It would be a guarantee ?f a large crowd if Mr. Cleveland should consent to accept the invitation. Mrs. Kennedy, of St. Matthews, attests her earnestness for the establishment of an industrial school for the I women of the State by offering to donate land for a site. This is a liberal offer on the part of Mrs. Kennedy, and it is hoped that the college will soon materialize. _ Thk Press would like to ^-/"tliow what business Governor Pdttison, of Pennsj Iv mia, has to veto si j >irit resolution of ?.I?e Legislature demanding :h? pa^ge of the Federal Elections bill by LVnure.-s. Doubtless Governor PatiUon can give very satisfactory reason? for hu vote. It is intftrpstin<r to know that doors aienow being made of paper. They are formed of two thick boards stamped, moulded in panels and pasted together with glue and potash. "Water and gas pipes arc also being made .of paper while ?ome of the heaviest sleepers run on paper wheels. No doubt houses will some day be made of paper and we occasionally hear now of "a paper man." Mr. Edisox predicts as soon as the predjudice of telegraphers will admit great improvement will be made in the transmission of messages. Many inventions have already been made looking to this end and the great electrician thinks a member of the next generation will be able to enter an office, scratch oft' a note to his wife and hare an exact copy transmitted over the wire. Cleveland and Hill have done as all good Democrats should do: get together. It takes the united effort of a'v ? ^ wjnlAt*t' mirl if U1C p*I I y IU aV/bUUJj;iUll HI.IU11 , anu 14 we believe the underlying princip'es of the Democratic party then we can't afford to dissipate our strength, energy and zeal by warring among our?elTe?. We rrjoice to *ee the friendly relations of Cleveland and Hill, and hope that Hill will use his well recognized political power for the election of Cleveland. It is amusing to watch the conduct of a demagogue lite Ingalls, who when he sees now so clearly the great popular wave against the force bill, rises and asserts that he is opposed to stieh revolutionary procedure as the j cloture njle and an unconstitutional bill like the Lodge elections bill. Ingallr explanation of his position must be taken with a grain of salt. He is Mich a bitter partisan and i? ever tireless in denouncing the South, that we can hardly conceive of his love for a bill that is non-iectional. Ilia L profession of love for a constitutional L government is so utterly at variance SL with the character and sentiments of the man that we are forced to believe Ig that all he says about revolutionary and unconstitutional uiea*ures is j prompted by his defeat in the Senatorial election. ^ Peffeu has made himself in a measure notorious bv defeating Ingalla in the United States Senate: but his effort to gel up a little boom for hitn?elf for President, is a piece of colossal i cheek. This perhaps explains his sound position on the race problem, but Mr. lifter'* political history is not well enough known to sive the slight est consideration to i.is presidential ; aspirations. There are too many j bigger men than he, and, if he really j contemplates ruuning for the high ' office, his services in the Senate will j be practically worthless for he would j have to spend his whole time between ! now and the electiou talking and i working"night and d*v, to get up a| corporals guard's vote for the presi- I ^^^Ldei:cy. It is all very well for Peffei j ^ to succeid Ingalls, bat lie will never j sit in the President's chair, not next; time at any rate. * | Tiik action of the Kansas Legisla- j ture in ret using- to approve the Conger | lard bill is an indication of Jriendliness j to the South that is assuring. The resolution requesting the Kansas dele-1 nation in Congress to vote for the Conger bill was killed bv a vote of 44 j to This is well and we have to ?hank the Alliance for that much. It j is the agency that is drawing the West | and South together tor a great victory ! in 1892. In the discussion on the reso- j lution the action of the Alliance Con- ; wonfirm in fValn was rr?fi?rr^il fo ami ! ibe condemnation of that convention of the Conger biil doubtless influenced ; the Kansas grangers to cast their vote i against the approving resolution. Dut j by the minority in the Kansas Legis- ; latnre, a spirit of antagonism was I shown to the cotton seed oil men. It was claimed that, the delegates to the Ocala Convention were so "wined and dined" by the cotton seed "ring'' that: they woald hare voted for anything' to the detriment of the pork packers, j It was claimed that the cotton seed I product was ruiniug the pork raisers ' and causing their lands tu depreciate ; in value. Despite this, the approving j resolution was tabled. The Alliance j has onr thanks, Kansas OBr thanks. < Harvester Tru.-it. It. is reported that a mamouth trust j I in the manufacture of harvesting ma O ; : ehiuery has been formed, the trustees J being Cyrus McCoraaick, Win. Deer-! ing. Walter A. "Wood, Lewis Miller, | A. L. Conger aud A. S. Bushnell. with j a capital stock of $35,000,000. The j new company will employ 50,000 men, i ' 10.000 agents and 1 .">0,000 machines will be the annual out-put of the fac- j tones. Six well equipped establish- i rncnts have been brought under one [ control, the largest purely manufac- j hiring corporation in the world. The I entire mower-reaper business in the courtry is involved in the American Harvester Company. What effect this combination wil' have on the price of j the machines remains to be seen. The excuse for the formation of j trusts is that they reduce production j to the limit of demand and thus pre- j vent cut throat competition, wliich i sounds all very well, but these same , trusts folks tell us, when we complain | of the protective tariff, that exhorbi-; j tant prices will be kept down by the I laws of competition, yet when competition begins to operate trusts are J organized to kee)) prices at "remuner-! atire rates." This last trust is 0"<fanizcil to affect the manufacture of machines used exi clusively by farmers and their iuterj ests are iuvolred. ^Ve would remark, However, that the farmers are thowiug a disposition to take care of themselves now-a-davs and no doubt will be able | to do so in this instance. Prize Clubs. Xow is ihe time to form new prize | clubs in Fairfield. Those that have al- j [ ready been organized have done much ! good not only in promoting social intercourse among the members, but in calling their attention to improved methods in farming; not the least of which is the formation of a habit of j accurately taking note of all expenses ' and all profits. A successful merchant I takes stock frequently and makes care- j ful estimates of purchases and sales, j so that he can at any time approximate i what he is doing. The same is true j of many other callings. But the far- i mer finds it more difficult to make a j record of his business, and his calling j has a tendency to make him less! methodical than his neighbors. Again j the cotton grower has to wait eight or | nine months before receiving any re- j turns from his labor and investment, j lie draws largely on the future. These j causes combined have a tending to induce a haphazard way of getting along. But if a farmer plants a prize patch and makes a careful record of J his operations and results he will find j that this habit of close investigation j i will become interesting, and he will I gradually extend his systematic observation to his vrhole crop. The days of haphazard business of any kind have passed. There is no doubt that scientific agriculture pays, and every means | of advancing it should be tried. We know no better stimulus than a live earnest prize club organization. JLent. Lent, the springtide fast of forty days before Easter, will begin on Wed uesday, which is Ash Wednesday. Roman Catholic theologians aud some Protestants maintain that this fastis ?? cnlijfonfd r\f A AVI or? n Vnif the greater number of protestants consider it of ecclesiastical institution, the common opinion bein<f that it was established in reinemberance of Christ's fast of 40 days in the wilderness. Some contend that at first Lent was limitcul tn ftif> first f7?n?- of TTolv Week, embracing 40 hours and was gradually extended. The Greeks and Latins at first fasted 40 days, Sundays and Thursdays being excepted, but the general sentiment faro red fasting 40 days and the Lenten season was extended to 50 days and afterwards to 60 and 70 days until Gregory directed that the fast should begin on Ash "Wednesday. There is some uncertainty as to whether the fasting was obligatory or1 voluntary, but the general custom be came at length to be a general law requiring entire abstinence on Holy Thursday and the exclusive use of "dry food*' during all the fast days of Lent. Iu the present discipline of the Roman Catholic Church only one meal a day is allowed and at this the use of mr>sf ?<; nmhihifpd hnt this wn eral rule is modified to suit the necessities of climate and occupation. In all Protestant churches of Continental Europe Lent is still a penitential season and in this country is observed by Roman Catholics and Protestant Episcopalians with appropriate services. Hamnfftn'n Kfl^ftian. The effort bein# made in some quarters to attach political significance to the selection of Gen. Hampton ai orator at the Columbia Centenial indicates a spirit of hostility to either Hampton or Columbia. A panic must have seized somebody's political hopes o -fAQi* miitf ^ovo fVi*kTTt locf VI * IV/Al Hi 11 * A1CITV wuiwrvt mvu*. iV^ v the presence of Carolina's most destinguished son will attract a crowd to the centennial festivities of Columbia. We apprehend there will be little sympathy given them throughout the State to be hung upon either horn of their dilemma. Why should not Gen. Hampton. of all the people of the State, be selected orato^ of the day upon wliich hi* native city will celebrate her centennial anniversary. Hampton is the most ? x. i?? i;..r?. i.: illustrious living ^aruuiuuii, uis melius beeu spent in or near Columbia except wheu serving the State on the battle fields or in Congress: his leadership saved Columbia the horrors of bloodshed i* '76 and it was Hampton who stood by Columbia to the last when the marauding herds of Sherman fell upon her. The people of Columbia know Hampton well and love him and they love 10 honor him for what lie has done for the State and their city and we most heartily approve his selection as the on? to tell of their hopes, disappointment* and growth during- the past century. And what sin is there in the idea that there is a silent hope that Hampton will y not decline to allow himself to be made the standard bearer of true Democracy in ?92? But we are told that this is a a ^.record-breaking- year," "a strange year and novel proceedings are in order" and it must be .so wnen in South Carolina it becomes an offense to lienor Wade Hampton. "We shall see. mrm ? I>?pl?tias: the Trra*ary. Erery well Informed mm knows that at the end of the Cleveland administration, there was a large surplus in the United States Treasury. The Republican party has completely dissipated the larje *urplu?, and unless something is done to arrest its hcad1,n.tr *nr1 i-ffkleiS DOlicV t tie JTOTem tnent will room become bankrupt. On July J, 18S9, '\he available cash balance in the treasury, including the fund for the redemption of national bank notes, and excluding miner coin and subsidiary silver coin, wai $149,535.178." Senator Carlule, in the last Forum, states that this enormous sum, at the ei:d of th? first five months of the first fiscal year for which the Republican CqirgrcsR made appropriations, had been reduced to $39.S27,Q~~. ...>,1 ll.ar ol t 1 ,r>ll (Til I llA Oil <7 , 1*1111 Kit Ak naiivvi^u - . the public debt was $3,700,000 ies< in 1889 than ISS8, the expenses fur the former >eir wer? $22,842,650 more than in the latter. Bat it jets still worse each year'. The interest on the public debt during the fucal year of 1890 was $5,000,000 less than in 18S9, jet the expense* fur 1890 were $15,739,871 more than fi,r 18S9; and acc?rdin/ to an t?thnaie nude by the Secretary of the Treasury the expenses for 1S91 will be $354,000,000, an increase of about $57,000,000 orer 1890, although t'je in'erest on the public debt for the present vrar will be aboil' $i,000,0'U less than last tear. Many men conversant with the finance* of the government contend that with tl.e Republican policy, the expenses tor the present year will exceed the estimate ot the Secretary of the Treasury by about $25,000,000. At any tate, accepting the figures of the Republican Secretary the rapid rate at which the party now in control is depleting the government's treasury is alarming and an outrage. It is enough without their f ?rce bills and cloture resolutions to condemn Mm ?v!Nmwjii! nsrrv hp fort? the DOO pie. The great. trouble is tha- the heavy expenditures are the result of a series ol iniquitous laws passed by a Republican Congreif, and which cannot be repealed ur amended tor many >ear? to conic without the consent of a Republican Senate. A JUi^(?aiue of Grab. The trouble about the United Slates government is Jiat everybody is trying to get hold of it for his own benefit. It seems to be entirely forgotten that the object of the Union was to promote the interests of all classes and individuals alike, and that this advan * l i~ 1 tage can ue secureu omy uy muiuai concessions and patriotic large-heirtcdness. Calhoun recognized this spirit of concurrence as the only safeguard of a happy Union. But the spirit of Calhoun is dead and the new gospel of sclfianness takes it place. Each individual must push for himself, each locality must beom every measure that tends to its own immediate pecuniary aggrandizement, and denounce and antagonize everything that may postpone its advancement for the general welfare. Congress is a clashing of interests, each endeavoring to seize the whole government for itself and to use political machinery to promote individual and class measures. The manufacturers and the moneyed class have been in control for some time, arid have tnado a pretty me.?3 of it. The inevitable reaction has set in, aud those who have been shorn are going in with might and main not to stop the shearing business, but to put the she; s into the wool of the quondum shearers. The grand armv veterons have raided the treasury almost to the verge of bankrupting it, now since advtcate of labor has introduced a bill calling for at least $30,000,000 for back pay to every laborer who has worked for the government more than eight hours a day for many years. The gold :nen endeavored a few years ago.to demonitize silver for their own purposes. Now the silver men have rushed to the other extreme, and propose to dump the silver of the world into (he United States Treasury st fictitious prices. The Alliance calls fnr thp Snh-trMKnrv hill which is 10 allow such of them at raise certain kinds of produce to receive advances from the 'government, a privilege not extended to any other class of citizens. Ship builders deaire to wake the government par them to run their vessels over the ocean at a loss. Claim?, and bills and jobs of all kinds are before Congress. It is only a question ?f log rolling what will be advanced and what stifled. Iltnce the importance to every clrss of getting as many advocates in Congress as possible whether by fair means or fonl. The only safe course is to call a halt, and bring the government back to first principles. When it i$ recognized that it i? not the business of Congress to meddle in private concerns, there will be no need of Sub-treasury bills to put the fanners on their feet.

The Great Benefit Which people in run down state of health derive from Hood's Sarsapailla, conclusively proves that this medicine "makes the -weak strong." It doe? not act like a stimulant, imparting fictitious strength, but Hood'a Sarsaparilla build# up iu a perfectly natural way all the weakened parts, purifies the blood, and assists to healthy action these important organs, the kidneys and lirer.

FARMERS OFFA1RF1KLD! | A'xvji.'jhsiwa?*?i DEAR SIRS: We hare bought the plant of the Wiunsbero Oil and Fertili* - - x- tv. zer Co., which we propose to operate in the interest oi me ianneruux rsiuciu. Cotton seed oil is a product of the Southern farm which, from it* valuable I properties and the various uses to which it can be put, uiu*t ultimately in crease the income of the farmer who raises the seed and ihe manufacturer who crushes them. At present, however, the price of oil is so low that its production is hardly profitable and we cannot offer you a big price for your sew. We bought all the seed the Winnsboro O. & F. Co. had on hand, about 100 tons, and will begin this week to work thetn up. While doing io we will continue to buy all that may be offered at prices we can afford to pay. The good that we can do you by running the oil department of our plant i? not entirely within our control as the price of seed depends principally on the price of oil. But there is another branch of our business over which we can exercise ? greater control, which we know we can and will operate in your interest, and that is our fertilizer department. We propose to buy only the best materials and to manipulate them so as to produce first, a high grade fertilizer of superior quality to increase the yield of the crops nnd improve the soil of lauds containing a due proportion'of the element* of plant food but not I a sufficient amount to make a large crop; secondly, two or more special brands * J 1 "* * ,-\4 with the elements of fertilization so compounded as to oeet meet IUC UCVU VI | special kinds of soil. If you know the nature of your land and the kind of j fertilizer it require*, buy ihegoods we will put up for that kind of laud, for you will find them to be what they are represented and as cheap a? such good* j can be bought. If you do not know, come to us, tell us what you can about the nature of your soil, the kind of crops you have been raiding, the kind of culture you have been pursuing, the fertilizers you have used, etc., etc., that we may judge what element or elements of plant food your land it deficient in and thereby be able to advise yon what fertilizer it will be best^for yoa t? uu. We want to co-operate with you and from year to year manufacture and tarnish you such fertilizers as you will need and of course, for it it a rnattar ol -ftmman contp k<?ll vou ?ood? that von will find to be of ?cperior qoalitr, cheap and therefore pr*htable for you to buy. We want to buiia up a irauc and keep it by selling you such good* and at snob prices as will ?oable you to make a success at farming. T? do so we will try to compo?nd ouroutferials to conform to the teachings of agricultural science and investigation and th? experience of successful ana practical farmers. It will be to our inte:e$t to do so, for your success means our success. Our desire is that people all orer tbis State shall point to our county and say, "See what Fairfield is doing in the way of progressive farming!" We solicit your patronage, uot only because ours is a home industry, bui because we intend to dcxerce it. When you are ready to purchase your fertilizers we will sell them to you fo cash or en time, or you can get them from your merchant. Whether you want ! to buy or not we will be pleased to hare you call and see us. I Yours respectfully, THE FAIRFIELD OIL AND FERTILIZER t'U.v D.
