John Gaiy Evans has been defeated for United State seaa tor for a fourth time. i :de. -feat is by an overwhelming me, jority-perhaps the greatest that has ever been cast for a candidate for a major office in the history-of the primary sys tem In South Carolina. He is defeated by a man previoa.ly .nk own in politics. Iqe car ried only two counties of h490 in the. state. One of is the county of his ce, where his majority is only 800, as compared with 6.000 clhjmgd for hifi and as compared wit 1,200 received in his last, pre vlous race.' His defeat is crish ing, final and conclusive. His candidacy seemed unwise and Injudicious from the begin ning. He announced last win ter before the death of Senator Latimer, who was a candidate for re-election and in the opinion of most people assured of re-eleq, tion and fully deservin endorsement. ..such have def - imer would ted him probably . "'than Smith did. Smith did not announce until after Latimer's death. ]Sither of the six candidates in the race with him, with the possible exception of Grace, would have defeated him in the rsecond primary. The people of South Carolina absolutely will inot, under any circumstances or against any opponent, elect John Gary Evans to offee. They have four times refused to make him senator. His only -chance of election was in 1896 when he ran against Earle with powerful backing that he has never been able to command since. He failed then, and has failed three times since, each htene by a larger majority. Mc Laiirin beat him 15,000 votes, ~atimer beat him 17,000 votes. Smith has beat him 25,000 votes. Surely the people will not be called on for a more pronounced verdict against him. He had in the campaign just closed a perfect and complete political organization. His op ponent had none. He had rep resentatives in every locality iooking after his interests and had a mailing bureau in Spar tanburg where from 25 to 30 gteographers and clerks were fWorked, and from whieh the state was flooded with his litera ture. bulletIns, personal letters, AstmteR anl endorsemnicts. fle ra4a iIliti list of 75,000 Y*.~e~i~Vo enAa single letter ~~ud cost $1,500 for To send a circu would cost $750 for alone. -spartanbrg~ Orphyn Work-Day, 'bA lyof 250 or iia he Ep)worth CQ14u1b, . s., My 0 R 1ome, 10ieppsIan 4 0, iuOpherW. as at~lemn, a.

The Georgia scheme worked well, For several years an effort has been, made to rouse an equal interest in South Carolina, and Alabama and Florida have also taken It up. In every com munity some zealous brother *pnight take up the matter and push it and the day's work from everybody would go to the or phans. This proposition is not in the Interest of any one orph. anage it is intended for teach one to give to the orphanage nearest his heart. Give Satur day's wages to the orphans. Gathor the proceeds on the Sab bath a 9 to the insti Ions above named. It will be sure to reach the right spot, if drafts and checks are made out to the name of the institution itself and provisions shipped to the same. We have no doubt that when an Individual com munity makes special request of the railway authorities, flour and rice and molasses or any other products would find them willing to' deliver without charge. Notice that this is simply a statement. Urgent appeals are not necessary. The orphans need help. The institutions are unable to give it, without the backing of the people. At this season all their treasuries are greatly depleted. Do not over look the day. A Powerful Appe4II. The Indianapolis News (Re publican) says: "We think that Mr. Brya'a Is stronger with the people than he ever was be fore, and jhat the Republicans will make a great mistake if they assume that he can easily be defeated. For the man is quite as popular as he ever was, has quite as strong a hold on the affections of the people and yet he has grown in wisdom and is, we believe, less radical. It is certain that the old Bryan scare has largely passed away. He will this year be voted for by thousands of men who, twelve years ago, would as soon hea8 voted for Haywood. Many men saw in the Republican conrven tion what they believe to be evi. dence of a retreat. To these the Democratic candidate and the Democratic platform will make a powerful appeal.
