there will be six candidates In the

Uncle George Tillman of Edge

Walt Whitman as a matter of

only claim to be conservatives,
uncle George[aud Schumpert.
Senator Tillman has sufficiently
recovered his strength to again
take up "his pitchfork. He made
a strong speech in Congrefs on
Thursday apropos of the Hawaiian
annexation and the effort of the
Republican party \ to establish a
government there in the interest
of the white people on the island
when they number but one out of
30 of the inhabitants. Referring
to the policy of the Republicans
in the administration of Southern
affairs just after the war, he said : |
"We were then in South Caroli
na, attempting to establish a white
man's government. The Republi
can party interfered with us then,
or attempted to do so, professing
to hold opinions about the sacred
rights of the majority to rule. I
should like to know whether the
Republican party has changed its
opinion on this subject of the
right of the white man to rule, for
if it has, and will extend it to the
southern states, I will vote for the
treaty.''

The Greenville News of the 5th
says :
The Hon. B. M. Shuman and
H. J. Haynsworth leave today
to attend the United States court
,of appeals, which convenes in
Richmond, Virginia, tomorrow.
At this session of the court two
cases against Dunkip will be ar
gued. They are suits brought
against the township to recover on
bonds issued in aid of the C. Iv.
& W. railrod. This road was never
completed and the township, very
naturally, is resisting the payment
of the bonds.
Mr. Shuman goes to argue the
case in behalf of the township and
Mr.Haynsworth will appear for the
plaintiffs, who are non residents
of the State.
The payment called for by the
bond is rasistsd on the ground that
the statutes under which they were
issued are unconstitutional. The
objections raised against their
validity involve some very nice
and interesting points of law.
About #50,000 depends on the
question.

OUR AVASHINGTON LETTER.
Tillman, McLaurin, Talbert aud
Latimer Entertainingly Re
ferred to.
SOUTH DAKOTA IPECAC.
The following excerpt from a
recent Post report of certain
executive session proceedings in
the Senate has caused a great
many thoughtful and sympathetic
peaple to interest themselves in the
senior Senator from South Caro
lina :
"Sen Morgan had spent some
time in detailing his personal
experiences m the Hawaiian
Islands, and had described the
Kanakas as a picturesque people,
who would be much better off
under a go\ eminent by the United
States. He spoke of the ladies
going barefooted along the streets
in long, loose gowns, which we call
'Mother Hubbards,' and the men
with little clothing, but yet strong
and manly looking fellows.
"Here Mr. Tillman, of South
Carolina, broke in and asked :
'How many of them are allowed to
vote?'
"'Let me answer the question,'
said Senator Kyle, of South
Dakota; 'how many of such people
are allowed to vote in your State?'!
"'I've had that crammed down
my throat,' retorted Mr. Tillman,
'until you make me puke.'
"Senator MasoD, of Illinois, was
in the chair. 'Order, gentlemen,
order," he said. 'We can have no
puking here. Senators who desire
lo puke must retire to the cloak
room.'
"It is hardly necessary to say
that this remarkable conversation
rather shocked the Senate."
Senator Tillman in a card to
the Washington Post, says the
report does him "grave inj; 3tice,
because of the suppression of
what preceded and succeeded the
offensive epithet. My retort was
garbled and not an answer to Mr.
Kyle's remarks at all, or in the
language used "
S3XAT0R M LAUBIN.
I f.m sorry to say that the
junior Senator, John McLaurin,
continues in feeble health. He
has been confined for several
weeks at his home (501 B street, 1
N. E.) with typhoid fever. His '
presence is greatly mis?.ed in the |
Senate chamber, where he is i
becoming quite as popular as he <
was deservedly so by all parties '
alike in the House. Iventure to
3ay Senator McLaurin is as much .
a general favorite in Washington .
as in South Carolina. i
"THE WATCH DOG OF THE TREASURY." '
Hon. W. Jasper Talbert is one J
of the ablest and best known mern- ,
bera of Congress. He is without <
doubt tho braiuiest representative !
af the present South Carolina ;
delegation, and that is saying a
great doa!. During past sessions |
of Congress Hon. "Jas." shared
the dis'inctiou with tho late l
Representative Holman of being 1
the "Watch-Dog of the Treasury." j
On Friday night sessions of the j
;he House, when pension bills t
iloue wore considered, he wa?
ilways found in his seat, much to
he dismay of those party men
vho are ever trying to rob thc
reasury through the pensioV; ?
ystem. On these special session? h
t. very often ocjarred that the V
louse had a slim attendance and
he spirit apparent was to legislate
apidly. It was on just these
.ccasious that members who had
political debts that could be paid
in this way, would try to take
advantage of the situatiou and have
their questionable bills called up
and passed with those that were
valid. Col. Talbert made it his
special duty to "spot" these
"riders" and "dismount" them,
so to speak.
COL. "JAS." CONFIDENT.
If there over is an occasion in a
Congressman's life when he is apt
to be put to his sprouts as a ehiewd
and calculating politician, and
when "all the world seems sad
and weary," it's when he has a
contested election case on hand
with the "jedge an' jury agin 'im.'
He knows then that he is entirely
at the mercy of and 'ignance ob
de cote." Being aware that the
Colonel had a case on, I called on
him at his beautiful and hospitable
Massachusetts avenue home
recently. Much to my surprise,
under the circumstances, Col.
"Jas." was brimful of lifo and
hope; and while he admitted that
Mr. B. P. Chatfield had a
Republican House and three '-egro
lawyers from South Carolina
Seymour Smith, Ed Dickerson of
Aiken, and the Edgefield celebrity,
Paris Simpkins) toge"her with a
reputable law firm of Washington
working for him, still he had full
confidence in his b'?ng allowed to
retain his seat.

MAY RICHARDSON TALBERT, aged
ll years, fell asleep in Jesus at
the home of her parents, H. Q.
and M. L. Talbert, on Sunday af
ternoon January oOth.
She bore her last long illness
with a fortitude, sweet submission
aud patience rarely witnessed in
one of her tender age. Her brief
life, like a meteor, was lene us by
the Creator, to brighten all around,
but for a fleeting spau ; yet its
sweet, and sacred memories will
linger on the earth from which her
spirit has flown. "A voice we
loved is stilled ;" a ray of sunshine
is gone from our home. Ever,
brght, amiable and gentle, "none
knew her-but to love her."
Truly, "death loves a shining,
mark," and plucks earliest the
brightest, sweetest fl< wers. We
will miss you from our home, my j
sister, for none other thy place
can fill; and while it seems so
hard that it should be even so, we
recognize the sovereign will of the
"Author and Finisher" of all
things. "The Lord gave and the
Lord hath taken away." One gen
tle being less on earth, but one
more gem in the Crown of the Sa
viour !
One less to love and cheer us,
but one more lie to draw us heav
enward! Two moro beautiful
little hands to beckon us to that
bright and belk-r beyond where
the circle will never be broken!
BROTHER.
ONE OF TWO WAYS.
The bladder was created for one pur
pot e, namely, a receptacle for the
urine, andas such it is not liable to
any form of disease except by one of
two ways. The lirst way is from im
perfect action of the kidneys. The
second way is from careless local treat
ment of other dispases.
CHIEF CAUSE.
Unhealthy urine from unhealthy
kidneys is the chief cause of bladder
troubles. So the womb, like the blad
der, was created for one purpose, and
if not doctored too much is not liable
io weakness or disease, except in rare
^ases. It is situated back of and very
ilose to tho bladder, therefore any
pain, disease or inconvenience mani
fested in the kidneys, back, bladder or
usinary passage is often, by mistake
lttributed to female weakness or
ivomb trouble of some sort. The error
is easily made and may bo as easily
lvoided. To lind out correctly, set
your urine aside for 21 hour; a
sediment or settling indicates kidney
ir bladder trouble. The mild and thc
?xtraordinary effect of Di1. Kilmer's
Swamp Koot, the great kidney
md bladder remedy, is soon real
zed. If you need a medicine you
should have the best. At druggists,

PRESIDENT.
Issues all Forms of Policies
at Lowest Possible Eates
Consistent with Safety.
THE substantial and steady growth of the PROVIDENT SAV
INGS LIFE during tho past fifteen years, demonstrates that
its forms of protection have been appreciated by the public.
The Society has boen the pioneer in creating the plans of modern
old-line life assurance. It maiutains that no one plan of assurance
will meet the requirements of all men ; therefore, every foran of policy
A'hich it ?8*1148 was prepared to supply the needs of some special class
of assurers. All itt plans aro peculiarly Provident Savings, and are
of exceptional merit.
The PROVIDENT has, from the outset, been a strong
Advocate of assurance for th? purpose of protection,
and has eliminated, as far as possiblp, from its poli
cies all speculative features, providing reliable assurance
for the lowest premiums possible. The financial diffi
culties of the past few years havn caused business
men to question the wisdom of paying unnecessarily
high prtmiums; or a conditional deposit for an un
certain return.
The act of securing a policy of lite assurance is the
performance of a duty From a business standpoint
lifo assurance is more essential than fire assurance,
because property may burn, but. man must die.
Tho policies of the PROVIDENT SAVINGS are
better, clearer in phraseology, and freerjfrom condi
tions and technicalities, than those issued by any
similar instillation.
Persons desiring Life Insurance would do well to
consult me before seeking a policy elsewhere, as I
know tho Provident tc be a thoroughly reliable old
line company, and issues as good if not a better Policy,
and at more eatiefacrory rates, than any other com
pany in the laud.

The Johnston Institute.
THERE are schools and schools, but there are some reasons why you should
patronize the Johnston Institute:
1st.-Johnston is a healthful location, on the famous "Ridge," which com
prises portions of Aiken, Edgelleld, Lexington and Saluda Counties. It
is absolutely free from malaria. The same diurnal range of temperature
as Santa Barbara, Cal.
2nd.-Johnston is a moral community with few allurements to vice. No bar
rooms or vicious company to degrade the students.
3rd.-The Superintendents conduct-two boarding halls-Pickens Hall for?
young men and Rebecca Motte Hall for young ladies. In these Halls the r
students are under ret'.fictions and give their undivided time to their
studies.
itb.-The Institute is conducted on a Military basin. Boys are permitted, but
nut required, to wear uniforms. This uniform is cheap, handsome and
durable. Students are taught to obey, as one can never rule well until
be first learns to obey well.
5th.-Our course of study is thorough, practical and progressive. We flt stu
dents for life, as College Diplomas are issued to those who deserve them.
