WEDNESDAY, JULY 7,1897.
The campaign roeetingg opened
at Sumter on Monday.
Queen Victoria's jubilee is over |
-the grandest event of the year.
Abbeville rejoices in her water
works just completed and estab
lished.
Prof. Frank G. Woodward has
been elected president of the South
College, vice President Woodrow,
resigned.
Lieut. Peary will in a few days
begin another journey towards the
Non;h Pole. This is a nice trip
i:or Ju/V.
W. H. Ellison, of Aiken, was cut
in two by a freight train at that
place on July 1st. He was a rail
road employee.
The latest craze among wheel
men is to ride a "century"-a run
of IO) miles. We would not select
such weather as this for it.
The thermometer registered 104
in Akanta last week. The hot
wave caused much suffering in
large cities North aud South.
Southern music teachers haw*
formed an association and will
hold a grand musical festival in
Atlanta this coming winter.
In some parts of Florida the
people are on the verge of starva
tion, and appeals fer aid are being
8entto more favored sections.
The South American republ.es
have practically agreed upon
articles of union it is reported,
very much like thoes of the United
States.
The employment of colored ope
ratives in the mills c' this State
does not meet with favor, and will
hardly extend beyond Charleston
and Beaufort.
Queen Victoria's jubilee last
week cost tho people of England
$2^,000,000, yet there are thous
ands of homeless families in Ire
land, a part of her kingdom.
The Augusta Herald is a bright,
newsy sheet, but rather unfortu
nate sometimes in its selection]
pf topics. An article on "how to
eep the feet warm," published!
in its columns a few days since, j
was rather superfluous, to say the
least of it, with the mercury shoot
ing up into the nineties.
Cbarleeton Mas finally abandon?
\ ed horse cars, and the modern
trolley now conveys passengers]
along her ancient streets^ Au J,
like Charleston, he** trotiey is ?wt
generis-supj.^e'd with fenders, af
recaution for the public safety)
not yet adopted in any other South
ern citv that we know of.
Judye S i mon ton. has reaffirmed
his decision giving the Agricul
tural Hall to E. B.Wesley, thue?
ending the controversy so far as j
the possession of this properfy is j
concerned; the State of South
Carolina will have to find another j
hole for its dispensary business or j
put it in a hole in the ground.
The Supreme Court of Kentucky
has just decided that all interest
charged or collected over 6 per
cent, is usury. As a consequence
four of the largest bnilding and
loan associations doing business in
that State have gone to the wall.
These associations foot up over a
million and a quarter dollars each
of assets and liabilities. This
Kentncky decision is right in the
teeth of our South Carolina de
cisions on the same matter. Which
is right?
We have read lately a call for a
convention of the "fire- baptized/'
sanctified Christa ns to be held
-somewhere in this State. This is
the higher grade of the higher life
brethren, those who are away up
and beyond the experience of any
others and who have felt the divine |
lire glowing in them until they
were almost consumed- We have
a suggestion to make-that some
of these "fire> baptized" brethren
go on and make an effort for one
higher step-that of translation
like Enoch or Elijah.
We do not read that this method
of departure from life was to b"?
confined to these eminent men of
God, and if the fire-baptized" are
still liable to be again tempted
and defiled and dragged down so
as even to imperil- their salvation,
why not make an effort to get out
of this evil world by the chariot of
fire? God has never said that this
expe rience should not be repeated
sud it would hardly be more
wonderful than some of the ex
periences which we have recently
of those who have had the baptism
?f fir?.-Southern Presbyterian.
Cotton ties ateo are on the free
list.
Cotton bagging has been put on

Tennessee's Exposition at Nash

The Turco-Grecian war is over
but the war in Cuba still goes on.
The first cotton bale of the sea
son has been received at Houston, j
Texas.
Augusta's celebration of the

royal.
President and Mrs. McKinley
visited the Nashville exposition
last week.
The Citadel cadets spent last
week in camp at Anderson, where
their commencement was held.
Gov. Atkinson, of Georgia, has
appointed the beautiful Miss Butt,
of Atlanta, a member of his staff,
with the title of Lient.-Colonel.
Japan opposes the annexation
of Hawaii by the United States.
Having whipped the Chinese,
Japan feels big enough to grapple
with Uncle Sam. ?
Dr. Chas. Manly, President of
the Furman University at Green
ville, on last Friday tendered his
resignation. Dr. Manly har been
at the head of the college for four
teen years, and has served it well.
Another hard struggle between
labor and capital has begun North.
Two hundred thousand laborers in
the steel, iron, and glass mills
have quit work an?, there is a gen
eral suspension of business in
these industries.
Severe storms visited portions
of South Carolina and Georgia last
week. A church was struck at
Clinton, the lightning shocking
the assembled congregation, a
chuieh at Cordile, Ga., wa* blown
down, and there was much dam
age done to smaller houses and
growing crops.
The White House in Washing
ton is not considered a sufficiently
large or magnificent home for our
presidents, and at the next regu
lar session of Congress an appro
priation of $3,000,000 will be ask
? ed for to build a palatial residence
for our chief magistrates. Jeffer
sonian simplicity is rapidly giv
ing place to monarchical splendor.
Twelve hundred barrels of corn
oil and its equivalent in corn
cake are being daily produced in
the United States. It is only a
matter of time wbenj?om^?l will
become a strong competitor of cot
ton seed oil in all those finer uses
to which the latter is put. The
corn cake, however, is inferior as
a food product to cotton seed
cake.
CLEMSON COLLEGE.
There have been two more deaths
at Clemson College. The special
committe'e of the State Board of
health found that it was an epi
demic typhoid fever that was rag
ing at Clemson College, and will
so report to the trastees. In their
report they will suggest that the
cause of the fever is from a spring
that was contaminated, and that
the sanitary condition of the insti
tution is bad, and that the sewer
age system is about as good as
none. The troubles will all be
remedied at once, as suggested by
the State board of health.
AN ARMY OF TRAMPS.
Tramps seem to have taken the
West. A dispatch from Denver,
Col., says :
"An army of 15,000 tramps is
moving westward. At present it
is in Kansas. It is approaching
in four divisions, following the va
rious lines of railways, and so
troublesome has it become that
the people have petitioned the
railroads to carry them on to the
coast. They forage upon the
country until there is nothing left.
The tramps beg everything in the
way of old clothes, money and
meals, and the inhabitants have
begun to look upon the movement
as A serious matter. The Union
Pacific and the Mississippi Pacific
have placed shotguns and guards
on their trains.
Last week a tramp named Bailey
was killed at Salina by a brake
man named Callahan. He was
riding on the break beam. The
brakeman descended and, it is said,
kicked Bailey with such violence
that be fell and was ground under
the wheels. The tramps infest the
wheat and corn fields at night.
Such is the story told by Jas. j
Wright of Topeka, a prominent
railway and express officer, who ie j
stopping at the Windsor. Tbf
tramps will pass through Colorado
on their way to th*- Pacific coast,;
in the wake of the Christian En
deavor Contention excursions.
They ?*y that they are endeavor
ing to secure work in the irrigated
valleys of the West. What they
?-II do when they reach the coast
is a question. They have no means
and an a menace.

IBBY VS. MCLAURIN.
Carolina Congressmen in Wash
ington Were Interviewed
Washington, July 1.-The
; announcement of Irby's candidacy
against Mclaurin was not a sur
prise here. The South Carolina
congre ssmen all agree that means
a hot, fierce, typical "Reform"
campaign, and no member of the
delegation is willing to go on
record in predicting the result.
Mr. Latimer saids "I am not
committed, and I told McLaurin
sc yesterday, I told McLaurin so
yesterday, I have no concealments
in the matter. If McLaurin's
election means a combination to
defeat Tillman's re-eleetion, I am
against him. Until all doubt in
that direction is removed I have
anothing to say, and whilst 1 may
be fresh in legislative experience, I
want the State to know thai, what
ever progress has been made in
reference to the dispensary bill and
whatever hope is entertained of
immediate or ultimate success, is
due entirely to the efforts of
Senator McLaurin."
Representative Talbert said: "I
ha\e nothing to say in the matter,
The mention of my na.Tie in
connection witii the senatorship is
the unsolicited suggestion of
other?. I promptly decline to
entertain it, and I don't eire to
discuss the present situation at
this time."
Representative Strait said : 1(I am
responsible for the use ot' Talbert's
uame as a senatorial candide to,
and I repesented the controli ng
sentiments in my c< ogress ional
district in asking him to be a
candidate, it will be a close race
in my district between McLaurin
and Irby."
Representative Stokes said.:
Irby's candidacy seriously
complicates the situation, irby 1 as
great capae?y us an orgatiizer. He
was toe only Reform leader in the
state, who succeeded in harmoniz
ing factional differences in the
party, and has a strong personal
fol lowing." /
Representative Wilsen said:
"It will be a sizzling hot fight from
start to finish. Irby ls one of
McLaurin's discoverers. He
cousid^n d him at one time the
peer of Calhoun and Hayne in
ability and: statesmanship, and
McLaurin's rhetorical efforts in
adulation of Irby had much to do
with his phenomenal political
career." "If he doesn't flunk when
thepinds comesp??id Mr. Sampson
Pope, "Irby will make a great
campaign ai d will be a formidable
candidate."
The impression here is that the
at tempt to make the tariff the issue
in the campaign will force Senator
Tillman to the espousal of Mc- i
Laurin's candidacy.-Columbia
