A Young Lady Browned.
On last Thursday a goodly num
ber of young people of our town
wont to Mr. Charlie Quattlebaum's
mill to enjoy a picnic. All went well
until late in the afternoon when Mr.
Lot Gibson, Misses Eppio Crouch, '
? Hattie Hawsjftid Alice Smith went
boat riding on the pond. Having
gone a considerable distance up the
pond the boat ran upon a snag and
sank, leaving its occupants in eight
or ten feet of water to struggle for
life. Mr. John Gibson, Mr. Welling
? ii
ton Shealy and anotner young muu
were near by and on seeing the boat
sinking Messrs. Shealy and Gibson
rushed to the rescue. Mr. Shealy
saved Miss Haws and Mr. Gibson
saved Miss Crouch and doubtless
would have saved Miss Smith, had
not his clothing became entangled
with a root while endeavoring to raise
her and Mist; Crouch the second
time. He after raising Miss Crouch
the second time got her 011 the boat
fr>r Miss Smith the third
time but there being no one at the
boat to take care of Miss Crouch and
she being unconscious, fell again into
the pond and he raising her a third
rtime, would no longer leave her to
the mercv of the boat, but placing
her on it, carried her to land, his
strength in the mean time being well
neigh exhausted. By this t-imd other
help had arrived but the excitement
had grown so great that the exact
whereabouts of Miss Smith's body
was not ascertained until Mr. John
Gibson could be heard and it was
too late then. The heroism displayed
| by Messrs. Gibson and Shealy in
Y these moments of trial will be reI
membered greatefully through the
| coming years, by all of our people.

meats, ott\, au. i.
Our venerable old friend, the Rev. i
Tohu M. Jefcoat, organized a new ]
A.llianee on the 23d ult., by uniting f
Due of our moat worthy young men, i
Mr. Artemus Goodwin, in the bonds i
of marriage with the fair maiden, t
Miss Francis Neese. No demits will i
be granted, and the "grips" and se- i
cret "pass words" will never be di- t
vulged, but they start in life with <
the brightest promise of roseate <
happiness without the aid of a sub- ^
treasury. * i
That most excellent citizen, Mr. <
George W. Sigh tier, has a new member
in his home Alliance. Its a boy, ?
and its motto is, "milk for babes, but (
the governmert can't own and run j
our railroads without some squalls.'' j
THE "SUB-TREASURY" PLAN ILLUSTRATED. ?
Mr. Addison Goodwin Teeps his 1
rattlesnake in its cage, which is E
called the "suNtieasury"?a fitting 1
place for serpents. The "sarpint" *
refuses to eat, has taken a regular 1
Dr. Tanner's fast and is becoming (
quite slender. It is supposed to be 1
looking out for a Third Party and, by I
nature, would make a suitable mem 1
ber. As the great American humor- 1
ists, Artemus Ward, said: "What an
interestin' study it is to see a zewological
animil like a snaik under per- ;
fee' subjection."
ADVISED NOT TO GO IN TOO DEEP.
The last Alliance column, over the
signature of "G. M. A.," gives us a
treat in which he denominates the
opponents?in the crder?to certain
pet measures, as "drones," "soreheads"
and declares that such "hasn't
a di op of Alh'ance blood in him,"
aud then makes the unfortunate confession
that the "sub-treasury bill is
too deep for me (him) to fathom."
The mind of the most charitable
critic would verey naturally inquire
how it is, with such blissful ignorance
of this measure which he can't
fathom," he seeks to analyze the
"blood" of his opponents and to
drive them from the hive as "drones."
He might profit by going in too
deep even where "sore heads" would
stand abashed beyond the short intellectual
"fathom"-hive he claims to
i
carry, and yet insists upon measuring
others by it. The old philoso- i
pher's advice to small boats keeping
near the shore while greater ones ^
could venture over..greater waters, is
which he would do well to memorize
1 1 i!i.? --1 ir.
ana, nereaner, wueu nt? nisues iu
swim out in searclx of "sore heads,"
"drones" and bloodless Alliancemen,
he will be safe to hang his garments,
already growing too small for him,
on a hickory liiub, and then keep
away from deepths he can t "fathom." '
TARIFF REFOM THE GREAT ISSUE.
The leaders of the sub-treasury
wing virtually confess that it is a
bad measure by crying aloud for its '
oppuuerits to give them something '
better. This is a Macedonian cry of
"come over and help us," which is
worthy of the kindest attention,
and we trust that our party, in battling
for tariff reform, the greatest
national issue of the age, will find ^
time to respond to this reasonable
appeal from a shipwreck crew which 3
is clinging to an "old dead carcass."
Every son of the South who is proud 1
of his Anglo-Saxon blood should favor
any reasonable and constitutional
relief tending to promote the best J
interests of the burdened laboring {
class. <
LOFTY A>"1> VIGOROUS SENTIMENTS. '
Such amiable and kindly words as i
those from Dr. Crcsson, himself an j
ardent A lianceman, should be read
and pondered with unprejudiced ,
care. The crisis demands just such j
lofty and vigorous sentiments. They j
come with double force from bright
men within the Alliance, but out
siders are, as citizens, deeply inter- ,
ested and should not be deterred i
from uttering their honest convictions <
. t
by any squeamish plea of "etiqutte,"
which is too much like the French- (
man who refused to offer his hand to 1
rescue a drowning man because he i
hadn't been introduced to him. 1
From the rotten planks of the
Ocala platform?formed by radical j
hands?we can expect no good to J *
flow, but they will open up a Pau 1
dora's box of evils. By them no i
stones will be turned to bread for the j
hungry; no flimsy pretext into cloth- I
ing for the naked; no false doctrine I
into sound teaching to enlighten the j
ignorant; nor from the ranks of their }
supporters will spring any good (
Samaritan to lift your burdens or (
to heal your wounds, but when these j
seekers after office and plunder have i
led you estray and grown fat upon a I
brief stay in place and power they 1
will pitilessly frown upon the victims.
POT K. THK WOULD BE DICTATOR.
Polk, the President of the National
Alliance, repeatedly declares that ]
wiih a wave of the hand the good
old Democratic party can be crushed *
out, and asseits that unless the party ; i
accedes to his demands another party j <
I
'ill be formed! How mushrooms ;
tow up in a night! Since the blood- j
tained era when "Washington's path- j
ray was festooned with flowers by !
gentle hands of his grateful country
nen, at no period has there been I
uch a wonderful fungous growth of
>olitioal leaders like Polk, ready to
t raddle any hobby that promises to
nrrv weak men into high office.
'Now. in tin* narao of all the cods at onoe.
Jpon what meat doth this our Cie?ar (Polk)
feed.
rhat ho is grown so great."
[ verily believe that if the Ocala platorm
contained a resolution demandng
the immediate erection of a rail oad
from the earth to the moon that
i host of a certain class would howl
or the measure, while an office huntntr
caf term Id he fishincr fnr fat nosi- I
b O L
ions on the new route, and others,
iteeped in ignorance so dense that a
;annon ball couldn't penetrate it,
vould buy tickets for an excursion
lp to fair Luna's modest home in the
sky.
Talk about the wave of a hand, or
m uttered word killing the grand
>ld party that has given us more
>eaee, and plenty, more new wealth
n territory than all other parties, j
md never failed to protect our best !
nterests on land or sea wherever the i
starlit flag of our country has been !
cissed by the breeze? If there be a
land clothed in such awful power,
nethinks that heaven's justice should
lecree that it fall paralyzed and
withered beside the false heart that
jives it life blood! True Democracy j
u the white man's only hope in this
and of the chivalrous South.

A Wonder Worker.
Mr. Frank Huffman, a young man
if Burlington, Ohio, states that he j
lad been under the care of two j
prominent physicians, and used their j
treatment until he was not able to j
jet around. They pronounced his !
.'ase to be consumption and incurable.
FTe was persuded to try Dr. King's j
Discovery for consumption, Coughs, j
tnd Colds and at that time was not
ible to walk across the street without
esting. He found, before he had
lsed half of a dollar bottle, that he
?vas much better; he continued to '
ise it and is to-day enjoying good
lealth. If you have any Throat,

Mr. Editor: Thank you for your
courteous (?) reply. I think I understand

very plain and easy viz: Yes, "we"

P. S.?Please say to "Festus"that
kicking from without only verifies
O f
and solidifies "this noble order."
Kick on. "The Democratic party"
may "never endorse" the Ocala de
mands; though I remember it was
irery boldly asserted in this State
Last summer that "The Democratic
party" would never endorse the
'Tillman" platform, and it didn't,
nevertheless. Democracy did and
marched right on to victory.?(Stick

n such dirty work. His mother

that his hair is turning gray for

ASSOCIATE EDITOR: '
GEORGE JI. ADAMS. BATESBURG. S. C. j
REPLY TO DK. CROSSOV
Lack of space will compel me to
abridge and condense much more
than I like. As to vehemence and
bitter opposition to the sub-treasury j ^
I am perfectly willing to let rest with |
the audience that heard the speech.
The editor of this department has
in the past invited criticism from the
brethren with the best kind of moI
tive, and now as the first criticism
comes in connection with an answer
to my request will say that if the ;
brother will refer me to what I said
"a short time since,"' etc., I a;u ready
- - . i
j to explain, defend or make amends.
In that '"digression" my brother
I says that he has "no political axe to
mind," * * * "but keenlv feels
O 7 J
I the need of more relief for the farmers
but fails to see it in the subI
treasury plan." If the word political
is stricken out of his sentence,
j will the brother still subscribe to itf
allowing, of course, a liberal meant
ing to the phrase "axe to^ grind."
Without attempting to attribute any
i impure or unworthy motive to the
brother I must, in performance of
the task resting on me, say that is
hardly possible for him to feel as
"keenly" the need of, not "more relief,''
but relief, and but for the sake
of brevity, I would make it so indubitably
plain that he, being a man
of honor, would be honor bound to
*1*
aamit tnai a man 111 gooa circumstance
in life, in possession of almost
all that heart could wish, cannot possiblp
feel as keenly the pangs of
| poverty that are just beginning to
crop out abundantly in our country
caused by the infernal system of lei
gal robbery that has been practiced
| since the inauguration of the na|
tional banking system and which the
! sub-treasury principles, enacted into
i law, would forever wipe out of existence.
The organized opposition to
j the Alliance and its demands, and
| most especially the sub-treasury, the
| millions of dollars that; are beginning
j to flow from the hands-of the.money
power to be used in sweetening up
their sicophants to traduce Alliance
leaders, to buy out Alliance newspa!
pers and as many of our leaders as
I will sell out, is convincing proof that
j the sub treasury, if enacted into
law, is destined to do the work.
Folio.ving on down the column we
find the editor's language is con|
straed by the brother to smack like
j egotism. My language, studied, carej
fully in that connection, wilh show
plainly, to say the least, thajttie accusation
of egotism is vei^flHkind.

j men to represent them with the single
exception, perhaps, of Lexington

He may, but I cannot see how the
nine million mortgaged homeowners,
as well as the homeless who are striving
to own homes, especially our in- .
dustrious young men whom not one !
in a hundred can ever hope to own
a homo under the present system,
are to be injured by a permanent re
duction in the rate of interest. In .
order to be plain to the general reader,
I will make an illustration: Smith
owns a little home that is worth 1
I
$1,000 that he bought several years ;
ago; he did very well paying up until
a few years ago, he finds now that
with all the economy that it is possible
for him and family to practice,
and although he has no flour, hog, '
hash or hominy to buy, even making
j his own sorghum syrup, and that
fills the place of sugar, he now is
| compelled to deprive his family of
every comfort of life, to say nothing
of luxuries, cannot now send his children
to Sunday school because he J
rMirmnt dress them decently; cannot '
1
! spare them six weeks in the year to ;
attend the six-hours-a-day district
frolic, kindly called a public school, ]
and if he could spare them he is not '
able to pay 55 cents for that little 1
20 cents reader, or ;?1.50 for Murray's
Geography that is actually 1
! worth at retail 55 cents. With all ,
the rigid economy that he is now
compelled to practice, he finds it all '
he can do to pay the little mite that '
subscribes to his church, pay his
I taxesv pay his doctor's bills, which
are some years heavy, and the inter- i'
I est on the remaining ?500 of the [ '
| mortgage on tl e farm. Now, tell J
i me, kind philanthropic brother, will 1
not a permanent reduction in lh? j
reduction of Smith's interest fr
/
J
LO to 2 per cent., or from 850 per \ T
year to 810 be a clear saving to i lb
Smith of forty dollars, ami then j tl
tvhen taken into consideration the j <1<
tact that Smith's transferring his in- J te
lebtedness from the hand of the j tl
mortgage dealer to that of the gov- si
canment there is 8500 more money in ! g<
circulation. Tell me not that such si
-* ?. Jmnnvfonf ^VionrrA n? flm anli

treasury would briug about would i a<
prove detrimental to the debtor or | k
even the wholo of the middle and ! ai
or poorer class. That is precisely | p
what the opposition is fighting. They o!
don't mean for the common people al
to rise, not if it is in their power to a<
prevent it. Right here I will make T
the good brother a proposition and if u
he will accept I will assure him that n
he will not continue to labor for the v:
overthrow of a measure that will a
bring prosperity, peace and happi- e]
ness to this country if enacted into e]
law. If he will read carefully the fc]
books that. I would suggest they 0
would so inform and enlighten him C(
on the subject that nothing but the
most sordid, mercenary motives,
which I don't believe he possesses,
would prompt him to continue to q
use his talent and his means to de- p
feat a measure that is of more irn- p
portance to the farmer than all the g
balance of their demands combined, p
I beg you, dear brother, do not fight ^
uur principle inranuic auj muio uulu jjyou
make a careful study of it. ^
Yes, this controversy may be the ^
means, in an humble way, of giving
the grand fundamental principles
underlying the sub-treasury scheme tl
some ventilation, and God alone n
knows what a day may bring forth. E
"Don't be in a hurry. Breakers y
ahead." The placing of non.perishable
products in warehouses and
holding them may only be a repetition
of holding cotton last year. Yes, i
thank God, there are farmers who v
are able and did make sacrifices by A
holding their cotton, and it is our P
fervent hope that they will continue I
to hold on until another great victory
is won. There is much more involved |
in holding that cotton than the mere L
loss or gain of a few dollars per
bale. The money power have cer
tainly made less on the. two crops of
'89-'90 than on any single crop for
last quarter of a century. The
thousands of farmers that covered their
cotton with cotton cloth in '89 ^
at a loss do not regret that the sacrificed
a few dollars to win a victory
of such magnitude, and if the saco
7 iji
rifices have to be repeated for another
crop, or even two crops, to ultimately
win over the money power, the victory
would be cheap compared with P
the great benefit to the country.
The Western shylock may have the
grip on us, but the Northwestern
brother who solutes corn at 10 cents
^e^^shcl and-desires
none. Shylock got the $1.10 per
bushel. It pains me to see a brother
shake the bloody shirt. Wait brother
and see the fate of some who are i
the fate of some who are now indus- 1
triously shaking it. I don't believe i
it will pay. Had the sub treasury
been law two years ago Shylock
' > ' i A1 1 A f... Irt
could nave got ?i.iu ioi wm ui iu ^
cents per pound for bacon with
bringing up the general prosperity c
of the country. But, hello! brother,
don't you remember, $1.10 for corn, w
did I say? A few days ago I saw a T
man from Texas and he told me new ^
corn was selling on the streets of the
town from whence he came at 25
cents per bushel. Evidently they ^
have over production there and need
a warehouse to store it for future
markets. If th9 brother will make
his capital sentence read the -farmer
pays all expenses" instead of "the
people pays," etc., I will agree with
him soul and body.
Ha! ha! my good brother, if the b'
sub-treasury principle enacted into j
laws would have the effect of bulk- ing
our cotton for the speculators i
thev would, with one accord, laud it
(sub-treasury) to the skies. It would
have to go on the market sooner or '
later of course, but if Smith would J
store his cotton on the 30th of De- ccmber
he would have his 20 per
cent collateral in it and the whole of
his next year's crop to back him up L
and disaster would hardly come by a L
great fall in the price. Really the ?
cotton that is still in the hands of L
the farmers, was it not a blessing to i
those poor people who were forced Jr1
' 1 j
to sell, for if all the crop had been l
placed upon the market last fall, no ?
one knows how low the price would L
have gone. Does the brother think
that one defeat caused by eight mil- Ai
lions of damaged bales of cotton has ^
whipped the farmers into meek sub- Ai
mission? I can't think so. Before
bringing this letter to a close I will
jive vent to a thought or two by si
asking my brother or any one else ^
friendly to the cause a few questions. LWhat
will be the result when the ^
uine million mortgaged homes have L
all gone under the hammer, and
thirty million stalwart-liberty-loving- ^
honest-industrious men as well
as women and children, are b'
turned out of house and home in the ai
bare public road to either starve or
jo into the tenants hut and enjoy Ai
slavery worse than African chattle ^
slavery before the war! (Study the
subject by reading a few Western c
papers that 'are not fighting the
* * i ? j I tn
AJnance neiore you put me uowu us
an alarmist or an idiot) An answer
to this question would give considerable
relief to many reform thinkers
just now. In conclusion will add:
. T~
he first Alliance demand is theabo- i
tion of National Banks. One of two )
tings will happen inside of the next I
^cade. The national banking svsim
will be effectually wiped out of j sfc
te United States of America, or 1 W
xty million of her inhabitants will I
:> into slavery worse than negro |
a very ueioie ine ?iu.
That the sub-treasury scheme enjted
into law will sound the death i
nell to national banks, IT. S. bonds J au.
ad rob money of its power to opress,
and make it a servant instead
f the people's master. We have
bundant evidence by the present
stion of the money power itself,
hat power will fight the sub-treas- \\
ry to the bitter end, and Alliance- ^ j'
len who expect to gain an easy
ictory there will be very much disppointed
I fear. There are break- A
rs ahead it is true, but if the farm- ?e
Our
rs will stand by their tried leaders
aere is hope, especially if we trust lng
ur cause in the hands of Him who
Dntrols the stars. V
