1 fiy ; J The Press and Banner. BY HUGH WILSON. ?? ABBEVILLE, S. C. jfctf-Publlahed every Wednesday at S2 a year in advance. =n| jp Wednesday, Sept. 27,1899. limiting tb? Party by DrawlDK the Line* too Clonely. The Greenville News is a Democratic newspaper from start to finish, but its disposition i to draw the lines too closely will limit the real Democratic party to too small a number to be of effective usefulness next year. For Instance: That newspaper recognizes good Democratic doctrine in the Press and Banner on the subject of the coinage of silver, and in unnDort of MeKinley's conduct of the war. ??-? but oar contemporary would "stand us aside" because we favor the State dispensary. And against this we protest Tbe coinage of silver and the support of a President In enforcing good Democratic dootrlne?annexation?properly come under tbe bead of national politics. But tbe dispensary question Is a state question, upon wblcb tbe Democrat* are divided. On national questions, as far as we now recollect, we entirely agree witb tbe Greenville News. We despise tbe doctrine of 16-to-l, and we are an expansionist?without hesitation Or equivocation. Nobody in this country was more clamorous for tbe Cuban issue than tbe Demoorate, and McKinley had been criticised for non-action, but when he did enter into tbe spirit of war. he simply rode at the head of tbe proceeslon. In the flight with Spain McKinley conducted tbe war with consummate skill. He has, tC . however, been a little slow In giving Aguinaldo the proper attention, but we are trusting him to push tbe war In tbe Philippines to ?3.i a successful Issue. Tbe Democratic party seems to be in an anomalous oondltlon. The "greenbacb"doctrlne,nn * ' i? th?n?. uer LtltJ KUIW Ul ib-wj, una UDCU |/Ukiu >UV ?V mocratic platform. On tbe other band the Republicans have stolen our annexation plank, and ran off with Democratic battle ships to go Into the annexation business, of which business tbe Democrats ha7e heretofore enJoyed a monopoly. Being agreed with the Greenville News on many of the National questions, It might ? not be amiss for it to enlarge its doors sufficiently to let in a few dispensary advocates, a m ? ^ Tbe Show ? Big Time Tor Sunday t School Scholars. c The Wallace show will give an exhibition 11 at Abbeville October 17. In order that no one n may be deprived of the pleasure of seeing at 0 least a part of the show, tbe managers of tbe Institution will give a free street parade, p when the various animals, tbe several aotors, ^ the many chariots, tbe band wagons, ana other things belonging to a first class show will pass In review through the Public Square, and along some of the prominent Btreets. Sunday school scholars and pious children generally are especially Invited to sit on the r< front fence, or else find a good point of view d on the Pabllo Square, and see the procession, g The management Is still further disposed to m accommodate those parents who may li think It a sin to witness skillful horse-back riding. A show of animals can be seen so o that the children may see the various beasts d and fowls, without going to see tbe horse* t! back riding or tbe performance of tbe acrobat tl actors. This show will accommodate all. You can Bee the parade free. If you get a ticket you can see tbe animals without look- ] lng at tbe actors; or, if you like, you can see the whole thing?monkies, parrots, clowns, and horse-back riders. D * The Press and Banner is glad tbe show Is coming. Shows are enjoyed by tbe prople, and even If they are not rich tbey can generally get a ticket to tbe show, and then for a time, lorget their troubles, bid defiance to re- Jj morselees creditors, and enjoy themselves to 4 ho fnll ovtont Tn i>qoqc nf ATfromfi nnoorfv or severe piety, they are authorized to sit ? on the fence and witness the parade, with- c oat money and without price. a 8 EtV ? ?? d ? The Culling of Names. c Some of our brethern of the press are a d little inclined to say unkind things of those ' who would obstruct the government in its 1 proseontlon of the war In the Philippines, t and those who come under orltlolsm may be a little sensitive. d We believe It Is a little unusual for news- jj papers to give aid and comfort to the c enemies of the country, and we believe It Is seldom that citizens should cm sh the spirit ^ of soldiers In the camp. 8 But we presume the annexationists and the , antl-annexatlonlstH are finuallv slnoare In < tbelr oplnloQs, and all are alike patrlotlo s For this reason there la little reason for j friction. c The annexation of the islands Is an accom* ] pllshed fact, and they are today as much ^ a part ol this country as Texas or California. v The question of annexation, and the act of giving aid and comfort to tbe enemy are 1 quite different things. t Several times In the history of ;the county additions to our territory have been bad. In * each instance some of tbe best men of tbe country have been opposed to the proposed I annexation. t Our people might Just as well realize tbe < fact that tbe Philippine Islands are ours, and that other fact might as well be noted, that j Agolnaldo will be compelled to lay down hlB \ arms and respect the-laws of this country. 1 ? Tbe Cotton Market. There has been considerable activity In tbe cottoD market during tbe last week, and tbe generally accepted belief In a short crop has had a tendency to raise tbe price. Some of tbe staple has brought fancy figures, but the basis closed at 8% cents. According to grade, some of the staple went higher, some fell below. We quote figures from our exchanges: MIDDLING COTTON, SEPT. 26. Abbeville, 6]4. Galveston. 6%. Norfold, 6%. Baltimore. o%. Boston, 6%. Wllmlngion, 6'^. Philadelphia. 7. Savannah, 6 8-16. New Orleans, 6%. Mobile. 6. Memphis, 6%. Augusta, 6}?. Charleston, 6 5-16. Cincinnati, 614. Louisville, *>%. St. Louis, 6 7 16. Houston, 6%. New York, 6 ? Honoring Dewey. Tbe Dewey celebration Is now in progress In New York. Tbe enthusiasm with which he Is received would indlc&te that there is no possibility of this country repudiating his act In capturing the Philippine islands. If there , weie aouots in tbe mlna or any anti-expan- ] slonist, we think the honors p?ld to Dewey i would eet these doubts at rest. To throw 1 a?ay tbe Philippine Islands wonld be to din- ; count Dewey. But we have no fears of such action on the part of this people. They* will ' neither elect Bryan President nor repudiate Dewey. t Stop that cold with qulnacetol. For sale by i Milford & DuPre. Phone 107. * Qulnacetol will cure the grippe in one day. Try It.

Cheatham of (be Seaboard Air .lne Railroad were In town shaking bands rttb friends, and, unlike Mr. St. John, doing belr road no barm. They ure general offlera of the Seaboard and have many friends a Abbeville. Tbe lact is, they are sucb good aen that some of us are surprised that they ontlnne to hold their positions. Mr. Glover once lived in Abbeville, and our eople remember him very pleasantly lneed. Mr. Cheatham is a man of business* lo talks fairly and performs promptly. JLiqaor ia Atlanta. As usual, the traffic In liquor In Atlanta Is eceivlng attention. It is said tbe bar men eslre to keep their establishments open for a reater length of time, and for this reason rill make uulted effort to advance their aterests. Atlanta will never be free from Irritation n tbe subject of tbe liquor trade until the lspensary plan Is adopted, something after be manner in which South Carolina controls be business.

What a Man Found Searching the Scriptareo Farmers aud MerchantsLawyer Worship# at Lowndenvllle. Lowndesville, Sept. 25,1899. Miss Ida Hawthorn, of Latimer, came up last week acid baa since been tbe guest of Miss Llilie Huekabee. Mr. H. G. Stokes, of Early Branch, came up Monday and spent tbe nigbt witb bis brother, Kev. Peter Stoles, and tbe next day went on to Fori Hill and entered Ciemson College. Mr. J. B. LeRoy bas bought tbe M. T. Hutchison place, what was ouce known as the Tom Young place and will move to It as soon as he can get possession, which will be about tbe close of this year. He bas beeu for a number of year's closely Identified with tbe mercantile interests of our town, and now severs bis connection with tbe Important fraternity that he may more closely look after his farming Interests. Our town will sustain ' a loss In the removal of himself and family, and the family of bis aon-ln-law, Mr. R. H. ' Smith from our borders. Mr. and Mrs. J. P. Young, of Anderson, came down several days ago and are Bllll among relatives and friends bere. Miss May Harris, of Llncolton, Ga? sister of our efficient and popular depot agent and t telegraph operator, ha* been visiting him at the Kay House for tbe past week. . Rev. 8. W. Henry, of the Shlloh Circuit, spent Wednesday nigbt In our town. The people of Latimer, more propperly speaking the people of Salem, are making a . united effort to build a new church. Every I member of that charge, young and old are soliciting subscriptions for that purpose, and the probabilities are tbat a new and much needed building will replace tbe old one very soon. Mr. H. A. Tennent went to Abbeville Wednesday on business. Mr. W. P. Greene, one of Abbeville's most promising young lawyers, spent a part of Thursday and Friday in tills place, attending two services In the Methodist church. Won der if he came up on Court business. Mr. Henry Moseley and bis sister, Miss Nellie Moseley went to Abbeville Friday, tbe i last named a delegate to the Missionary Conference In sessiou in tbat place. There Is an unusual demand just now for cotton seed. If they continue to advance in price a while longer, they will bring some- 1 tning use uieir vaiue. In labt week's Press and Banner a remarkable showing is made as to tbe cotton 1 markets of tbe United Slates. From It, It Is . gathered that there are only rour of the American cotton markets ai which a higher price Is being paid for the fleecy staple, than j Is at our own county town and at least some ; of the cotton centers mentioned are shipping ' ports. Our town though like Abbeville Is not a seaport, but Is with her In tbe price of cot- ' ton and we have no factory to boost our trade In this Important commodity. The price of cotton being much better than ( last year will help some of us very much, ' now If our small corn crops could be multl- ' plied as were tbe loaves and fishes of which | we have read, then some more of us would not be In such a bad fix after all. I Rev. H. C. Fennel and Mr. J. M. Carllle left Friday for Fort Hill, as representatives from . Providence to thu Prpuhvlerv tn n?

The services held by him were somewhat on , the evangelistic order, in that a prayer and , praise service was first held, then a comment j was made upon aay scriptural quotation, suggested by any member of the congregation, then a passage of scripture, his own , election was enlarged upon. The services from time to time were varied, and whatever was their character they were always to the ?Aln! onH itor.. ln(/,?Al>tlnn, Un I piMLJb ouu TCIJ iUlCIDOUIJg.
