Ex-Secretary Herbert 1 stated that of all the appropriations of 1 . every kind mads by the Goverament 1 ' at Washington, only 4 per cent was * received by tbe South. The appropriations for pensions from the fiscal ^ year 1866 to the fiscal year ending June 30, 1896, amount to $2,344,101,- , 732.37, so that at the rats of 1.3 per j cent, the South has received $30,473,- j 322.52, while the balance of $2,313,- , 628,409.84 has gone elsevrhe; e. The . following table, showing appropria- j tions far the fiscal year commencing . Jane 30, 1866, to the year ending Jane ' 30, 1898, is instructive: Tensions $2,344,101,732 37 Army 1,445,853,689 50 Navy... 745 294.902 20, Military Academy.... 11,870 839 93 Total $4,547,121,164 00 i Just think of all this immense ' amount of money, except 4 per cent, going East. Excluding the ikcalcu- * lahle tariff tax, the fourteen Southern States paid in internal revenue taxes 1 for the fiscal j eai 1897, $31,000,000 in j round numbers, in pensions, $18,000,- > 000, thus leaving a drain of $12,899,- ' 206.58 annually. The six New Eng. laud States paid in 1897 for internal revenue taxes $5,488,098.32, and received back in pensions $18,285,557.30, ] tbus they received $7,797,458.98 more f i than they pay. In other words, the Souths money is going to New Eng- . land. Is it any wonder that the South j finds moi:ey scarce and the New England States find ii plentiful? Whes Governor Sheppard said in : Washington that the fanners "have rrnaof Aonjo frv on/1 ^fh?r uv iv vvui^/iUAu MUM VMVJ are *_out of debt, have plenty of the ' necessities of life, and are able to j properly rear and educate their children," the Governor doubtless felt that ' it wouldn't do to advertise his State as . being so poor. While the fanners are j not starring, many, most of them, are . in debt and they have not made ex-. ' penses this year. The) can't produce cotton and sell it for 5 cents without : coming: out at the end of the year in debt- It is just simply a question of how Ioiig it will take to consume all , their property if cotton stays at 5 > cents. What the Governor might , have truthfully said is that the farmers _ - are very blue, that'they have not made j ^penges this year, but that tbey are devolincr more attention to the x>ro deletion of those things consumed at 1 home, and that they Jhope in the end j to raise cotton merely as a sarplua i crop, and that it is a critical period j with them. He might hare said that t no country in the world could stand the drain that has-been made on the South as it has done and that it is the * finest country in the world, that nowhere in the world caj people live ( so well on so little, and that in 1893 j the South stood the panic better than 1 the rest of the'eountry. We have received a communication sigoed "A Friend," which will be ^ published if the author will make i * i i . -a. . Ti. i Known 10 us ms or ner laenuiy. 11 is an invariable rule not to publish . anonyymons communications unless * . the name of the writer is given to the editor. Of course, the name will not beclisclosed; bnt for obvious reasons we have tojknow who writes articles for the paper. It is required as an evidence of good faith. Frequently, an article might be published without the identity of the author, and no barm wonld result. But unless some such rule as that mentioned is* rigidly enforced nev7snar>ers conld bp. and 7 J would be, often imposed upon. We . are always glad lo have people write * for our columns, and we assure "A ^ Friend" that the article mentioned . will appeaj, if he or she will drop a * letter to us so that we may know who wrote it. Such letters are always ? considered confidential, and the name 1 of the author will be revealed to no c one, without consent. At the top of ^ the editorial column this rule is pub1 - ; . Tt iL ' II^UCU in CYery issue* ii ii 13 viuiaicu. in one instance, it will have to be done 5 c again. , T c George Tillman on an anti-dispen- 1 sary platform would make a lively 8 campaign. It is not likely that the dispensary will survive until the next c campaign. We presume that Mr. * McGowan is against the dispensary v also. He and Mr. iTillman would be e in cash other's way: Now if Senator * l'ilimau should decide to carry out his 1 threat to come home, and run for c Governor in order to save the di3- 2 peosarv. wouldn't we have a lively d old campaign between the Tillmans? However, it is loo soon to take sides, " and we propose to wait until Governor 0 - Ellerbe's term shall have expired be- 0 fere condemning him. ** -??? P The Georgia legislature will memo- 0 rialhie Congress to pass a national c quarantine law. The gentleman ad- ' voeating: the resolution gave as his ti rcasonlthat the business interests of u the Stats had suffered on account of ^ the loose quarantine regulations in Georgia. Then why didn't he intrc- g duce a bill into the.. State legislature a moking the law more rigid? Wby j1 lo-^k '0 Washington for wbat can be " dene iu Atlanta? Will we ask the jj national government to feed us next? C .. Vv'-"v ^ - . ; - .a The proposed appropriation for the i elief of thoue who hare gone to Klondike is one of the rnaiij species ; f paternal legislation now so common. )f conrse, every one feels sorry for hnc? tnfprinir for food in Klondike, , )nt it is no fanction of Government to :eed them. They were warned by lie newspapers of the great difficulty n getting food, 'lhey went to Klonlike with their eyes wide open, and vhile their condition might appeal to ;haritable people, Congress has no nore right to feed, people in Klondike han it has to feed the people in Fairield Coanty. It is announced that Senator Archer, >f Spartanburg, will be a candidate or Governor, and the principal plank n his platform will be opposition to he higher institutions ot learning. If ie does not do better than G. Walt Whitman, he will disturb nobody's )eace. When will the politicians iet :?the higher invitations c ' learning est"? Every year some one ries to ride them to death, and the people usually put such politicians in he rear. Tb?y will do it again. The general opinion of the press of ;he State ii. that 5 cent cotton will produce a bis: crop of candidates next (rear. When people are h*rd pressed for money, they turn ;.to politic?, and try to persuade the rest of the people that what the coantry needs is new men in office. As this has always been the case, we presume that next fear will be no exception to the rule. So look out for an army of candidates in 1898., Piople seed not be excited over small-pox, but it is nothing more tlnn prudence for everybody in the community to be vaccinated. If we had a board _ot neattn, some tuiuumauvc action might be taken. As it i?, srery individual must act for himself. While it is exceedingly improbable that ihe disease will spread, we suggest that the authorities at Mt. Zion see to it that all the pupils are vaccinated, Mr. L. J. Williams, of the State Board of Control declares "ikat, prices considered, the dispensary whiskey is as wholesome and pure as my liquor which could be put upon the market by any person or corporation." Larry Gantt ought to have something to say about this. Is he still ready to prove that the dispensary sold cologne spirits and that Senator Tillman thought it a great joke? Solicitor Henrt, Attorney General Barber aBd Congressman Strait will ill be in the race for Congress. This iias been going the round-, and as none of the gentlemen have denied the truthfulness of the statement, we take it that the report is true. We would oe glad to see either Mr. Henry or Mr, Barber succeed jl>r. strait. Senator Chandler seems about ready to break loose from the Republican paity. ThS gold standard, he thinks, and Secretary Gsge's finanlial scheme will wreck the party. The unity of the party, he think?, depends upon whether McNully decides to' act for the people or for the plutocrats. The country, irrespective of politics, ffill deeply sympathize with President McKinley in his affliction. His demotion to his mother is a splendid eximple to the whole country cf honor a o no for f ,\j yui v* Lancaster has a Supreme Court Justice, Chester has the Solicitor, and fork has bad the Judge of this circuit for three terms. It wouM s;em hat Fairfield oughc now to have ine Fudge. mossy dale dots. Since my last our community had !nd a gloom cast over it by a visit of ;he Agel of Death in the h <>hold (.f oar e?teem?d friend and imiivr, Mr T. Washington Robinson, near Crooked Sun Church. His daughter, Miss Jessie, wa9 first stricken down with pneumonia, which assumed some complications. While she was very tick ler father way also stricken down with pneumonia, and in a few days her nother succumbcd to the same disease. Mr. Robinson passed awav ibout I o'clock in the morning, and lis wife followed him at 9.S0 o'clock be same day. Miss Jessie joined j hem the next night. Sad iRdced was t to witness the breaking np of a 'amily in a lew hours, only leaving toor sons, Will Robinson, J. L. Rob son, Samnel Robinson and Alex, tobinsou. It was a very sad sight to ee husband and wife laid side by side n the same room and carried out to the :emeterv together. Their remains vere interred in Bethel cemetery. Chey had been consistent members of ke Methodist Church for a number of ears and took a very active part in all hurch affairs, never mnrmuring or omplaining or refusing to perform .ny duty laid upon them. They were ,11 ready to meet the Bridegroom on lis appearing. Mr. Robinson and his pife had been in poor health for tome I ime, and owing to their advanced age srere not able to withstand their aisnses. The funeral rite3 were perormed by their pastor, Rev. W. H. kliller, in the presence of a very large :oncourse of relatives, friends and teighbors. The bereft family have the ieep sympathy of the community. Ttere was a homicide committed iu his community abort the same time, f which I have not seen any report f. [lenry Rowser shot and killed ane Coleman on Capt. T. J. Perry's lace. It seexas from what was brsoght ut at the inquest that some boys were utting wood, and when the girl went | rhere they were tor toe purpose 01 elting some wood, the boys were 1 usseling1 over a gun. Sbe remarked 1 > them that they had better stop fool- ! with it or somebody would get ] Hied, when the other boy let tbc guu j >ose, and Henry, in whose hands the ' uu was, pointed it at the girl's bead j ud discharged it, the whole'load pass- ; ig into her head, killing her almost J astantiy. After the coronet i^ve^'i- ; ation thr case was vWs: -<i *h<r lry who rou^ered a 7F.;<l.c r?>*?-.Kv.i loleman came to her death by a gun-j ??MWWW?MmnnTTHTIfkl shot wound inflicted at the hands of Henry Rowser. The boy was committed to jail upon a warrant issued by Coroner Hinnant. Rev. W. H. Miller has been returned to this charge for another year. We wish him abundant success in his labors. TKoronnW ?ppn two calls made by r the township cbairmen appointed by the cotton growers association. What is ths matter that there is so much indifference manifested? Come, Mr. Cbairmen, do your duty and let the farmers have a showing. See whether they mean business or simply wish to grumble about the low price of cotton until next spring, when they can tell you bow many acres of cotton they have planted and are working to beat their last year's crop. If any help is objaiued it can only be done by organization. t. b. >i*k. December 17, 1897. jfo cere-xo pat . This is the way all druggists sell Grove's Tasetless Chill Tonic for Chills and Malaria.

Miss Nannie Keller, the accomplished teacher of the Crosbyville school, haa recently been selling her rent cotton at Carlisle, S. 0. She was accompanied by her brother, Mr. Walter Keller. .Mr. JoeNevitt, better known to us as "Uncle Joe", will soon have his new residence completed. Ic is being built on the same foundation on which his former residence was burned. All those from our vicinity who at tended the Baptist State Convention at Rock Hill, 8. C., have returned, and report a most pleasant trip. Miss It. Y. Keller was among the fortunate or.e-3 who attended. She was accompanicd by her friends Miss M. A. Prult of Bradley, S. C., and Jiis9 Yirgie Hagie, "from Virgii ia. While iu Rock Hill they were guests in the beautiful and attractive home of Mr. aud Mrs. James Kerr. They say their visit could not have been more enjoyable, a9 Mr. Kerr is such a kind and thoughtful host, and they have never known a more char < ing hostess than Mrs. Kerr. On the morning of the oth inst., just after the sun bad risen from his hiding place behind the eastern horizen, we, a merry group, set out for the spacious and inviting home of Mr. Vf?*o Tno "Wiohorfr TcVlPrA WC hft.fl AUU Ul VVV IV A9UV* VJ (. MV?V been invited to witness the uniting in the holy bonds of matrimony their daughter Miss Fannie, to Mr. Dave Taylor, of Chester County. Rev. Beiton Estes wag the officiating elergyman, and to say the cercmony was solemn and imposing would be an inadequate expression ot the truth. After the ceremony congratulations were tendered them* by a large concourse of relations and friends. We then repaired to Cool Branch church, about a mile and a half distant, where we listened to a most interesting and effective sermon by the pastor, Rev. Beiton Estes. The services were largely attended, notwithstanding tho exceedingly unpleasant weathhr. Bro. Estes is truly a noble man, and judging from the many pleasant things said to me concerning his true worthy, as a pastor, he is snrely "the right man in the right place." While listening to the complimentary remarks made in his favor by the members of his charge, I conld scarcely refrain from exclaiming: "Blest be the tie that binde, Our hearts in Christian love." The hlusic at the church was excellent. Both the pastor and the members should congratulate themselves on having such an efficient organis as iliss Jennie Keller. Sbe certainly acts well her part. I haven't time and space to say anything concerning the interesting Sunday School, which is eo successfully superintended by onr good brother, J. F. V. Legg, whose true worth is already so well known to many ot cur denomination. After the services at the charch were concluded the handsome groom with bis blushing bride resumed their places in a pretty conveyance and led the way back to the bride's parental home, where we were to partake of the nuptial feast. Upon our arrival we were met by the kind and gema! host and were escorted into the reception room, where we spent about an hour discussing the interesting fermon of the morning, etc. We then received the anxiously awaited announcement, "Dinner is ready!" and, a# a natural sequence, we went in search-of the dining hall, which we easily found, and not only did we find the ball, but also an extensive tabla which seemed groanirg beneath its burden of the most sumptuous viands. Would it be saying too much were I to sav our feast would have rivaled ??> Invnm tho f?r-f<?mpr1 fpssfs of Lueullus in old Rome. We are certainly indebted to Mr. aud Mrs. Wisbert for a mo3t memorable episode in the history of our lives. Perhaps, I had better say to Mr. and Mrs. Taylor, as it was through their plannings tbat the feast was given. Mr. Taylor is a young man of sterling worth, and it is useless for me to attempt to say anything of Mrs. Taylor, as her wo.-th is already known to her many friends (in this county) who when interrogated concerning her will rapidly respond, "to know her U to love her." Our sincere wish for this couple U, that they may always find life as bright and pleasant as it is now, and too, may they find overhanging their pathway just enough clouds to cause them to appreciate the sunshine. ?c? * n.,iu UCC.

You can easily find ont by setting aside your urine for twenty-four hours; a sediment or settling indicates an unhealthy cendition of the kidneys.

We, the Prohibitionists of South Carolina in convention assembled, bow before Almighty God and acknowledge H:m as the guide and ruler in all true government.. 1. We are unalterably opposed to the liquor traffic?a traffic by which at least $5,000,000 are annually taken from oar already impoverished people to be squandered by the liquor dealer and gambler; by which onr courts are kept occupicd with criminal business, our jails filled with prisoners, our penitentiary with convicts, our poor houses with paupers, and our asylums with lunatics; by which many of our boys, after being* educated, are unfitted for business ane utterly ruined, and many of our girls degraded into servants of druokeu husbands, while the parents suffer with untold misery; and by which our civilization is demoralized and the very Church of God hindered in its work-in brief, a traffic against the intellectual, social, material, financial, moral, educational and religious interests of the people. We therefoie earnestly favor and will work for the enactment of such laws as will prohibit ihs manufacture and sale of intoxicating liquors for use as a beverage in oar si ate. 2. We coidially invite the co-operation of all Democrats in this laudable effort for State p.-ohibition, irrespective of the opinion on other issues as already made up in the State. O;) the is?ue ihns rquarely presented Ihe people, at the primary election, Angnsl 301_1S92J voted 10^0 m&j for prohibition. Out of a total vote of 8S,482, 70,535 votes were taken in the prohibition boxes?40,338 in favor rnd 30,197 against it. In tbe eight conntics vrhieh gave majorities against prohibition the majorities were email, ranging from 113 to 592, excepting in Charleston County, where only 264 voles were counted for prohibition and 3,938 against it. The total majority in these eight counties was 5,797, the olfcer 27 counties 'giving an aggregate majority of 15,738. The people asked for prohibition and were given the dispensary. The prohibitionists have not shifted their ground since, but 6tand on the same platform as in 1892, and^call upon the Legislature to comply with the demand which was then made, and which has never been modified by any vote of the people since. This is the whole question. The people ask for bread, will the Legislature continue to give them? whiskey? x Relief la Six Hoars.
