I Factory Operntlipx. ?Bc At the last session of the legislature ol |\ South Carolina, an effort was made, (In the I' pretense of humanity) to cast a slur or stigma Ion people who sought to make an honest living at honorable labor In the cotton mills. That stigma was embraced In the hypocrltlj cal pretense of n more tender regard for other people'8 children than the parents were exerI cislng. The poor of this country are surrounded by difficulties of which intermeddling politicians know but little, and It is unjust that , the operatives of cotton mills should be legislated vagalnst by the General Assembly. It was proposed last winter to set these people 1 off as a dlflerent class from other citizens by forbidding their children to take a particular Q kind of employment. The very people who need profitable employment more than any other citizens, and who are anxious to work, K were to be denied the privilege of earning a ^ living. there Is no ground lu Justice or equity for ,* separating mill operatives from other citizens, i and there can be nojustice in making a law to govern them which does not apply to others. If It be the intention to make it unlawful > and sinful for one man's children to help earn money for his support, then the*same law should apply to all children. It was decreed from a very early date in the f history of mankind tbat we must earn our bread by the sweat ot our brows, and if at this late day It be unlawful for children to work in a cotlon mill, then It should be unlawful for them to work on the farm. Ia it right to deprive a child of the means of providing clothlug and food for himself, or Is It better to forbid him to earn money with ,' whloh to buy bread and clothing T Is it bet/ ter to be brought up in idleness and hunger, v oris it better to labor and have a sufficiency of food and clothing ? M/' As It is, factory people have a hard tme. They, as a rule, withdraw from the outside -world because of the cousolousness that honest labor is discounted by idle people who Ii may be able to get credit and cheat the stores [ In town. ? L The honest woman and her brave children I who strive to make an .honorable living In I the cotton mills are deserving of the respect [ and kindly regard all good men and allv>good L women. ' * , r They need the kindly regardiof encourageI ment,and consclentiouR law-makers should I. be slow to enact any law which oasts a| ' stigma upon them by separating them from f their neighbors. i In times of slavery a line of demarcation ] was oonsplcuous between the slave and the master, but slavery no longer exlBts, and any effbrt to cast down the straggling poor, or A; to throw an impediment in their way, should wiuuttt*A Kn onnvAkatlAn nf rtatflnMn ?VW?fW ??w M|/|/ivvn?tvu V* fWVi ?VU*V citizens. See an artlole elsewhere lu this paper on the subject. Kelleloutt Worship. If It were proper for a layman to remark on religions worship, we would suggest that the Reading ol the Scriptures Is always interesting and instructive. ? ; The singing of the songs of prayer and pralae 1b a most delightful part of the service. Instead of high sounding words the Lord's prayer would be grateful to many a hungry heart. J If again, it were proper for a a layman to peak of the sermon, we would say that no minister of the gospel should dlsoredlt the translations of the Bible. As we understand. King James appointed a committee of more than fifty of the most learned men of his day to make the translation, and a majority of the layman of today would probably accept that translation as correct, irrespective of the opinion of latter day critlos. A i/ftin. If tha 4o fnll nf prrnrft nrhinh Ithe preacher may correct at his own pleasare( Is there sot danger of bis creating a doubt in' the minds of bis hearers, which may lead to disastrous results ? A learned Doctor of Dlvlnlty; npon being asked what effect Bob Ingersoll and others of bis kind would have upon Christianity, is said to have replied that all the infidels fn the world oould not be as effective In the propagating Infidelity as the common habit of the Christian pulpit In criticising the translations of the Bible. That was in effect the speech of one learned }n the oounseis of the ordained ministers Of the gospel. , Let us, then, have the gospel as It was handed down to us. When we quote Shakespeare we follow the text, without attempting to Show wherein he used the wroDg word. And let us treat the Bible with the same respect. Let us hear its lessons read as tbey appear In the Book, without adding to them, or taking from them, or changing the phraseology. ' King James's version has served the Christian people for a long time, and tbose hear era who are not made agnostics by such OTitlclsmB of the translation, woald prefer to have Bible Just as it Is. However learned a preacher may be, yet his criticisms ol the translation can only result It. In evil. And there are men who do not want tohearsuoh criticism. ? . Ignorance or Malice. Various assertions bave been made lntlmat, lDg that the cotton ml 11b bad organized with a view to controlling the price of cotton. That assertion of oourse Is not In accordance with the facta. Intelligent people, wbo are i honest, know that it is not within the power L of the mill men to depress the price of ootton | Politicians may bave sought to create pre.* [ Jadloe against the mills whloh run on short I time by trying to impress the people with the Idea that It was part of a scheme to defraud the farmers. The facts are about in this way: The price of cotton was so high and the price of cloth t was so low that the mills were running at a [ loss or from $100 to S300 a day, and it was I thought advisable to hold up a little to see [ bow the price of cloth and cotton would f change. I rnu?./v l? n/v koltfif InctitiiHnrt frvr tho nonnlo XUViCiO UV wvi-ivi iuoiivuvivu IV* VUU pwv|/iv who labor than the cotton mills, and It la a shabby thing for disinterested persons to seek BK Popularity by misrepresenting the officers of ^Hp^tbe mills. Just here this edltcr would suggest that white families who rent land can make a ^ -7; more comfortable living at the cotton mills than they can In farming on rented land. The mills have good dwelling houses in which the operatives may live. The mill B ltaelf is made warm and comfortable in the M winter, and employment at fair wages oan be bad every day in the year. The pay in every two weeks. And the cash comes every time. As this editor sees It. every white renter in MX Abbeville County would benefit his condition by going to a cotton mill. Undressed Son of Dir. and Mrs. Venns. gBB "That little undressed son of Venus wbc HB goes about with little wings cropping out From bis shoulders, and alms bis love-tipped arrows," etc.?Voice of the People. HBF ^" Our neighbor, the Voice of the People, should preserve a proper regard for the pro prletles in speaking of the "undressed son o |H Venus." He6hould have said, the"undressec m I *on of Mr. and Mrs. Venus," etc. "Then Well might t I At They assure you th anu nit? rt?a,uy uasii ua' do their trading with t of their fair dealing, an of Bargains in almost e Clothii We are offering an Also have about 100 E at same price.

Shall Bryan be Dethroned ? . | The Columbia State sounds one olear note la the valley of defeat, and asks two or three ] nftrHnftnt. nnnotlnnn whlnh disaffected; I. If not disappointed, Democrats may consider 1 with profit. It says: "To dethrone Bryan . from the position he holds in the hearts of the Democracy and Its allies you must cause them , to lose oonfldence in "him? How are you KoIdr to do that? Bryan did not lead the 1 people Into a false path; be championed the i cause they bad at heart and appointed him to , ohamplon. Therefore be has in no Bense betrayed them into disaster, and this they know i full well. How, then, will you set about the retirement of Bryan from polltioal leadership and representation of the Democracy's cause ? Besides, one leader cannot be retired nntll-i there is another to take bis place, who is to take Bryan's place? What man In the party can you name who would make such a leader as Bryan has proved even In defeat?" Who is he. and where Is he? Name him.?News and Courier. If the News and Courier would read Its own 1 correspondence, we think that paper would not need to talk about "dethroning" Bryan. He has been "dethroned," as is certified by the recent election. The demoralization, or disruption or the Democratic party, may mean something to which the people themselves might take into consideration. Whatever cause,, every citizen may see that the Democratic party does not stand as a unit, as it did In former years. We would not attribute anything to Bryan. He has proved that he has neither force nor influence. From our standpoint, there are perhaps a million men in the United States who could have done as well as be did in the recent election. If we are not ln'error be r&celved about a dozen votes outside of the .Southern Confederacy. A -wooden Indian, If he bad the Democratic nomination, can be safely counted on to get the votes of the Southern Confederacy. ( Viewing It as we do, Bryan 1b a talker, .hot not a thinker. He is full of words, ready atHi phrase-making, can talk hall an boor about a ; chinquepln, but be bas exhibited little or nothing of the statesman. He has neither the ability nor the sagacity to grasp tbe great national Issues. The Democratic platform bad very little in it except kicks at' { the government. It did n6t touch any great or national Issue. It waB distinguished chief- , ly for faultfinding, and for tbo avoidance of , national principles. Bryan is nothing. He Is not even a factor in any practical scheme, looking to the advancement and progress which a wide-awake people must make. Little men look backward and cry over split milk. AVbetber It was right or wrong to take tbe Philippines is no matter of concern after the deed has been accomplished. If the Government erred In taking them, let us hold somebody responsible for the mletake, but let us keep tbe islands* and make tbe best of even a bad bargain. Tbe Democrats, it seems to us, are opposed to progress. They oppose the Philippineislands; tbey oppose a sufficient army tocrush out the rebellion In these islands; they oppose a greater navy, and are against the subsidy to American shipping; and if they are In favor of tbe Nicarauga canal, we have heard little of tbe fact. The Democratic party needs progressive leaders. We need a few statesmen. We lite erallv have not one who has a rieht to the ' claim of statesman. We need to wake up from oar sleep and realize that the Democratic party must keep abreast of tbe times and ' must ko to battle on live issues. We wish that our most excellent contempo- I rary would not be a kicker. Tbere Is a fine opportunity for some newspaper to become a great faotor In guiding public opinion ; and In directing tbe people forward, instead/of back- ; ward, tbere la an open field of usefulness. Facts might Just as well be admitted, } and we hope to see the News and Courier become a representative of the progressive thought in South Carolina. Bryan Is literally 1 nothing, and he is now a back number. He i Bhould be allowed to rest. Personally, be Is without reproach, but as a politician he has 5 brought a most signal defeat, and if It were < possible to put him again at tbe head of affairs, the Democratic party would be dls- , rupted. The silent protest of good people would develope open and outspoken hostility. J Ills Popullstic principles will not longer be tolerated. Culm Will be Free. Tbe Yorkvllle Enquirer, and other newspapers, sometimes discuss the question as to when Cuba will be ready for self-government, 1 and when that island will be free. The time Is surely coming when Cuba will have self- ( government, and when that Island will have j the same kind of freedom that South Carolln* < now enjoys, namely: Tbe privilege of bebs t- ] ing herself and being a good and loyal 8t-?te j In the American Union. Tbe United Sta-es troops will never be removed from ivoro . Castle. It iB to the Interest of both the United Stales and of tbe Island thatthq,' be not separated. The acquisition of the Islands I may be a very bitter pill for tbe po'-tical 1 enemies of the government, but it will have > to.be taken.

Speaking for the Press and Banner, we t think the Democratic party will have to, ] levelope some statemeu, or wise politicians, t to offer something better than kicks kt the i Government. * ^ The,greenback idea, which was repudiated ( a quarter of a century ago, even under the | guise of tree silver, can never win.
