" ^ Wednesday, May 2.. - - - 1900 HON. VT. JASP. TALBEKT. Hon. "W. Jasper Talbert is a little rough in his manners. A great many Congressmen are more_pfltihtn'['"ViTT with all that^Eiii^rt puts in some .?gftQC[. COlMnou sense licks every now and then. We have jast been reading one of his speeehes on the bill to appropriate money for ths postoffloe department. It seems that Representative Mann, of Illinois, "made an appeal, almost With tears in his eye?," "to raise the salaries of the letter carriers in the large cities a:ad towns." Now Jasp understands me place nnnters. ne well knows bow anxious thousand* of people are to become employes of the United States, so he says the employes "hold oa eternally, still cryin? for more pay, never satisfied like unto the horse leach." His language is not always the most elegant, but that Lis point is good. Whoever heard of an employe of Uncle Sam's resigning? Another good point. "Why, it seems to me there is nobody npon the floor here," he says, "exceptthe representatives of the tax consumer?, aDd they push their claims earnestly." Some truth in this, there is a great deal of troth in it. It is well known that most of the time of a Congressman is spent in trying to get a position fnr enmphndv or a claim thrODffh Con gress for somebody. "We hope that the Hon. Jasper Talbert will succeed in his effort to accomplish bis want "I want to find," he says, "some men who will stand up here and represent the men who follow the plow down in the cotton rows and ihe confields of the South." Of course, J&sp may hare eipccled some of the "plow boys" to see this, bnt it is a fact that they have had very little representation in Congress. The - man who follows the "plow down in th? crttoo rows and the cornfields of the South" has nerer had bis Sogers ia tne treasury, Dut na? aaa 10 p;ow to keep enough money in the treasury to fill the pockets of others. The oil kings, the ship builders and the office seeker? have been well represented, but the man in the cotton row has been neglected. May the Hon. Jasper Talbert find his man. "You are all standing to-day, it seems to me, upon the side of the skinner, and I want to see somebody say something in the interest of the skinnedj" Mr. Talbert told his fellowCongressmen, and instead of taking it seriously they greeted the remark with jaugnter ana appiause. v^ougiess yet find out that he is in dead earnest. Fok pity sake is this Schley-Sampson controversy to be reaevred. The Augusta Chronicle has this to saj: A startling story ia getting into print in regard to Rear Admiral Sampsos. In connection with this statement, it is said that Admiral Winfield Scott Schley's friends hare threatened President McKinley's friends ,in order to have the Maryland saan outrank Admiral Sampson and have come ont victorious. It says that the most bitter personal fend in the nation's history therefore ends and that Schley will rank second to Admiral Dewey. The term3 dictated to President McKipley are said to have been audacious and practically were made through an unprinted edition of the Baltimore American, which made ollonafinnc ?erainot Rosr Af? oioikiuu^ auv^uvivuo ?>v. miral Sampson and Urowinshield. This paper, it is said, wa3 shown to the admiaistratioa leaders. The special eight-page edition which was to have been published was under the supervieien of General - Felix Angus and contained among other matters the charge tbar Sampson had countenanced irregular accounts in 1891 while superintendent of Ihe naval aeadenay at Annapolis. Another part dealt with Rear Admiral Urowinshield, showing that in 1896 Schley had recommended that he be eourtmartialed for incompetency ia equipping the ship then under his command. We heard a gentleman say the otiur day that less paiut was used in Winnsboro than any place that he had ever seen. His statement was endorsed by % group present. It is always some comfort to know that there are others. We, therefore, take this from the Laurens County News, published at "Laurens: Some of these bright afternoons when out strolling look around you as you walk and see what you do fee, count the houses as yoa pass them and classify as yo* go. Yon will be snrprised to know the number of houses whose owners are amply able to have them painied, which are bein;* neglected. Years and years have pas>ed and n^t a brush has touched them. Dust ana cobwebs have accumulated and the plases no longer look like a home. This is not as it should be. Oar houses should be painted, nice picket fences put around the yards and grass sadflowers planted. Parents how do you hope to keep your small sons and daughters on tne streets when you let home seem so unattractive? To make a child love home that home should be attractive. Give the painters, carpenters and landscape gardeners a job?or do it yourself? and make the whole city look more attractive. We cannot say t hat the children of Winnsboro do not lo?e their home?, but it is a fact that Winnsboro needs paint. For Over Fifty Years. Mrs. VTixslow's Soothing Syrup has been used for over fifty \ears by millious of mothers for their children while teething, with perfect success. It soothes the child, softens the sums, allays ail pain, cures wind colic, and is the "best remedy for diarrhoea. It will relieve the poor little sufferer immediately. Sold by druggists in every part of the world. 1 wenty-five cents a bottle. Be sure and ask for "Mrs. Winsiow's Soothing Syrnp," and take no other kind. 1-1-17 ? The Republicans arj following tha lead of Mr. McKinl?y in his denunciation of ths trusts. In Indiana in^heir convention, trusts are condemned, and in Ohio, Mr. McKialey's home State, the platform "insists that injurious combinaiions shall [be forbidden and so-called trusts shall be 80 regnlated from time to time, and be so restricted as to guarantee immunity fros bartf nl monopoly and assure fair treatment and protection to all competing industries." The uambtr of Republican platforms that are opposing th8 trusts, show that therein a preconcerted movement to checkmate the Democrats 011 this issue. It is an anomaly for the Republican party whose paternal principles have been the very-creation of (rusts to condemn them. We would nut have had ' any trusts if we had never had this party of high tarili ar.d centralization of all forms. It ha3 b:en the wty ol bounties and favored combinations. Nobody will believe that it is sincerely in earnest when it now pretends that il will destroy its own creatures. It is merely a little campaign thunder The Republicans have found oat tbat the Democratic position a?;aii:fct trusts takes with the people. It is one of the strangest of things that the press of the country, especially the metropolitan press, should be devoting column after column of space to the Dewey presidential and vice presidential movements. It cannot be that any man of ordinary sense seriously considers Admiral Dewey ic connection with either place on any ticket. Then why all this discussion of an impossible thing, in advance el the silly season, too?-Charlotte Ob ' server. It is just a habit of the press never to drop a thing. It is a repetition ol the never-ending Sampson-Schley controversy If the press continnes to talk aboit Dawey it will succeed in adding to his strength as a presidential candidate. Men of less promi nence than Dewey have been made is politics merely becaus? they were persistently alvertised by newspapers. It is not necessary to speak favorably of such men, but a large class of peo pie will be attracted towards tbem merely because the newspapers dc frequently mention ihem. If obscure men are often made by periistent advertising, it should surprise no oci that a man of Dewey's prominence should receive a great many rotes through so much free advertisement. The News and Courier speaking oi the value of advertising: says: "Nei'hei one insertion nor two will serve to attract customers, but regular notices, jndiciontly, temperately written, uol protesting too much will draw snd re tain the bnvers, buildiDg up one'f business on a solid foundation, giving also a basis for extension and improvement-the ultimate design of all modern enterprise. Tbe advantages of advertising being sh>wn, we mast understand whit adveriiaiag is, not merely an announcement, a sign, as if were, of the busiaess conducted, bu! tbe business itself plaeed is its best light." This is all trne and god advrce to advertisers. They would do well to follow it. It is not advertising simply to stick yoar name and kind of business in a newspaper. Adrer Using should be studleJ jast as any other part of the business. Unless attention is given to it no returns need be expectgd. It is reported that a tidal wave oi Japanese is moving iu this direction and the fear is expressed that it will cause a labor upheaval. Five thousand are said to be on the high sea and 25,000 more are to come. They will land in British Columbia and slip over the line. It is suggested that the United States and Canada take joint action at once to prevent the importation. Such action, it seems to us3 would be a little embarrassing to Uncle Sam. Are not the Japs jast as good ai our fellow citizen?, the Fhillipino9, with whom we ar trying to associate through the mou:h of the cannon? Nothing more wholesome in politics has happened lately than turning out Qaay from the Senate. The foundation for taming bim out did not rest upon bis character, but tbe people arc to be congratulated that ooe less man of his type will be in the Senate. He represents the most corrupt kind of politics. It is true that he deserves some gratitude from the South on account of his staiad agajnst the force bill. Axi> the war iu the Phillipines is not over. The news from Manilla on April 22 wa? that th8 week just ended had been the bloodiest of the war. It was reported that "the week's work finished 1,000 iniurgen:s," and that the insurgents "had been progressive in almost .every province of Luzon." When the war started we said that it would not be surprising if it should last for ten rears. It may turn out so. What a greedy world! England, France, Austria, Italy and Germany are all after Turkey, and ihe United States which is also in the grabbing game now, furnishes the pretext through their claim arising out of the Armenian massacres. It is a rough and tumble,fight these days for territory. QUESTION ANSWERED. Yes, Angust Flower still has the large-t sale of any medicine in the civilized world. Your, mothers and grandmothers never thought of using anything else for Indigestion or Biliousuess. Doctors were s-carcp, and they seldom heard of Appendicitis, Vorvnns Prostration or Heart Failure. etc. They used August Flower to clean oat th-> system and ?itop fermentation of undigested food, regulated the action of the liver, stimulate tbe nervous and organic action 01 the system, and that is all they took when feeling dull aud bad with headaches and ether aches. You only need a few doses of Green'a August Flower, in liquid form, to make yon satisfied there is nothing serion? the matter with you. Forsale by McMasterCo., druggists.

There is comfort in the knowledge so often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's SwampRoot, the great kidney remedy fulfills every wish in curing rheumatism, pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part of the urinary passage. It corrects inability to hold water and scalding pain in passing it, or bad effects following use of liquor, wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to go often during the day, and to get up many times during the night. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its wonderful cures of the most distressing cases.

G. H. oicM. Tirzih, S. C., April 24, 1900. G. H. McMaster, Esq.: Dear Sir?Knowing tho interest you bare always taken in anything connected with the history of Winusboroj I send to you a paper I have had some time (since '81, I believe,) and tell howl got it. At one of our reunions in Winnsboro, as there were so few town men in the procession, some one made the remark in Bill William*' hearing that he was of the opinion that Wiunsboro did but little in furnishing men to tho Confederate army. This aroused WilliAms' ire, and some time after he had me to assist him ia making out a list of names of those from the town aud near vicinity who were in the Confederate States army, who were residsnts when they enlisted. vVe did it entirely from memory and there are some omitted, particularly juniors nnder the last calls. It will be of liitla interest to any one now, but may be in the future, and I want to get it in some hands that will see better to its preservation than I can. Yoa will notice that of tfc.e many who went out with the old Boyce Guards that W. W. Ketchin is (he only one now liting in town, who from first to last was a member of that company. I give the commands in which they firat went out, as far as known. Numbers W8re transferred. I also give those who were killed, died of wounds ar.d died in service when knowD.
