I The Lexington Dispatch I Burned April 2oth; rebuilt July j ~ 19,1894. G. M. HERMAN, Editor and Publisher. LEXINGTON, S. WEDNESDAY. NOVEMBER 20, ISO". VCLUM3 mi, NUilBEE 1 ^ Tbe Dispatch has passed another mile stone on tbe journey of life, and starts towards another with renewed vigor and hope. For a quarter of a century the name of him who stands at the head of this eoltLo i ULLIJLZ iiao VUV VA VMV paper and moulded its opinions on all issues touching the religious, po litical and civil liberties of the people, |and without egotism we are proud to say that this paper has exerted such an influence over its readers as to be of great benefit to them as well as a source of instruction and enjoyment. We, like other newspaper publishers, have had our ups and downs. "We launched our frail bark on the rough and unceitain sea of journalism with fear and trembling, not knowing whether it would be able to safely ride the billows of financial storms which we knew must overtake us sooner or later, or go down - - amid the wreck of ruined hopes. AYe have weathered the storms. AYe have ? i? ? 4 lx a> /iin V\Aro / isvUOU ufaxucc UJJP siuuftaig v? * . home pod office, and saw the accumulations of a life time in ashes at our feet and turned away from the sad sight with the determination to make the Dispatch a better and rnoie influential paper than ever before. How we have redeemed that promise is for our readers not us to say. "We have faithfully striven to discharge our every obligation to the public, and have discussed all issues before the people in a calm, dispassionate and fair manner. We have never written one sentence that we would recall if we could. We lave a large amount of money j due us. The Are necessited us to create debts which we would not otherwise have done. They are pressing us, and we need every cent due us to met them with, therefore we earnestly appeal to those who are due us on advertising or subscription accounts to come forward immediately and pay them. Iieuiemhe? that everv little helns: that it kikes cents to make a dollar, so don't j stand back because your indebtedness is small. The white wiDged angel of peace overshadowed Columbia Monday evening of last week, but met an untimely death by being drowned in whisky, champagne and other drinks at the banquet given by the citizens of that city to the members of the constitutional convention. It was a veritable love feast with open doors, I popping corks at which the spiiits flowed freely and everybody got happy ana embraced each other all around. All's well that ends well. P? Is it not about lime for some tired candidate who is seeking rest under the shades of political oblivion to give the public another installment of "Christmas reflections?" General Parley found this route a rapid j v transit from popularity into the realms of forgetfulness, and a very effective means to be relegated to the quietness and beauty of pi i "*te life. i We believe that the constitutional convention in postponing the session of the General Assembly until January next, has transcended its authority and assumed powers not delegated to it by the people, and hence are arbitrary and entirely repugnant to the teneucs of a government by the people. * Is the star of Ben Tillman on the | wane? is a question that is giving ! many of his devoted admirers much J concern. This concern is increased j and intensified wheu they read the State's, as well as that of other papers, praise of him. We are persuaded from reading the State that its editor has buried his little hatchet and is now smoking the pipe of peace. Wonders, it seems, ! will never cease. Ob, Reform! What blunders are j committed in tby name? The work of enlarging the Lexington Manufacturing Company's factory will soon be commenced. We | understand that it will be enlarged l to double its present size. This is the kind of progress that we like to } see. TEE OLE VS. NEW WOMAN. | We have been taught from infancy up to manhood to regard the sphere of woman as being confined exclu- j sively to the home circle. There she was a ray of sunshine illuminating the moral and spiritual atmosphere ' of home, in which holy place the j characters of the succeeding geuera' _ tion of men and women were formed, * trained and established. Her pres- j ence shed a perfume of rare sweet| ness around those with whom she j * [ canfe in contact, which purified and i | ennobled and elevated those under i the influence of her gentle teachings j and instructions. Iter mission in this world seemed to be one of mercy j and kindness towards those upon whom she had bestowed the wealth of ' her affection; her delight was in admin- : isteriag to the comfort and pleasure of those over whom she luled with1 the strong bonds of affection and love. We are now told, however, that | since the advent of the new woman, 1 that to regard woman as the queen of home and love is only sentimentality, entirely unsuited for this age of practical progress and more advanced j and enlightened Christian civilization ; r>f pynirino- davs of the Xine v* ?l o ?~ teen Century. That such sentiments will do very well to store away in the I archives of memory as dim and ! musty relics of the by gone days j of chivalry; or to hang upon , the wa'ls as ''pictures of gold in j frames of silver" as a memorial to the departed glory of pure, gentle, sweet and tender womanhood. We would be taught by the giri in bloomers and of short hair that the modesty which characterized the old fashioned girl, is a very appro- I priate theme for the imagination of j some love sick poet to dwell in rapturous bliss, and in letters of tire which burn into the soul, pen verses and ecstatic song t j the lovely memory of his shattered idol, which, as they say, lay in fragments at his feet: that it may be a worthy object for the brush of the artist to place upon cavas in undying and never fading colors his conception of the unembelished beauty and lovilincss cf the old fashioned girl, which awakened iirthe heart of man all the ten j derest emotion, deepest love and ! most thoughtful consideration and j respect. We acknowledge, says the j bloomer and balloon sleeved girl, that her ears were unaccustomed to vile oaths from indecent men who profaned the name of her God with impunity; that her eyes were unused to behold scenes which, even now, should i cause the cheeks of every pure and noble woman to crimson with shame and humiliation at the degredation to which manhood has fallen; that her nostrils were unpolluted by the fumes of whisky from the red hot breath of drunken wretches whose sense, of decency and respectability are so blunted as to make them even forget that they ever had a mother; that at her approach men became silent, or through respect for hera quietly retired for fear that some unguarded word might offend her delicate feeling; that her j)resence was like sweet incense from off the altar of purity, the peifume from which purified and ' sanctified the very air she breathed ; and made the very atmosphere around j burn and glow with divine radiance 1 which made men feel that they were I better, nobler and purer for having j been in her presence. But all that ; is mere sentiment, totally unsuited for the changed condition brought about ! by the demands and new responsi- ! bilities of a more progressive and i enlightened civilization. That the ; whirligig of time has made another I revolution and has enlarged and j widened the rights and liberties of woman, freeing her from the narrow aiiit ^yVJUL 11 attcu uuii ou\. icu vuuuato ; of home, where she had been a thing I of beauty and should hav^ been a j joy forever, and placed her upon the ] rosturn, in the pulpit, the labatory, ^ behind the counter, in the shop?and j. other public places where she is ! compelled to come in contact with ! the men in their hurried pursuit af ter wealth and thus familiarity is . engendered and familiarity breeds contempt and woman loses her most beautiful and priceless charm. Again the dictates of dame fashion, the new woman's god, are of such a na- j ture that, in order to winjthe approving smile of men, they must obey her inexonorable decrees or they will become wall flowers and their charms be permitted to languish and die unnoticed by the throng of ever moving humanity. With the causes which have wrought this great change in the so cial world we have nothing to do. It ! is enough for us to know that the change has come, and those who are of an investigating mind cam study the events which have led up to this result and from that investigation arrive at theirown conclusions. Some may prefer the new one to the old. I Thev now think that the L'irl in i J O bloomers is the correct tiling: that this public exhibition of her person will win the smiles, the confidence, the respect and the love of true manhood, but we think not. Give us the old fashioned girl, with her tender, sympathetic and loving natun: | whose modesty is that of the lowly violet: whose loveliness outrivals that j , of the lily: whose affect ions are as cling- j j ing as the ivy, and whose confidence j 1 ??-. dx ?"? r- li A AfAt'looiinn* I tl USt IS US LI I 111 as ILJU L > L'X LlOtiU^ J ^ hills. To such a one home, though it be in the squalid wretchedness of | poverty or in the palace of luxury, i will be a garden of love, and bv her I < watchful care, tender devotion and ? prayerful faith, it will blossom with j the roses of happiness and the fruits if peace. * 1 !

THE WOhK DONE. All are interested of course to know what the convention has done in the matter of constructing the new constitution. It can be compactly stated. Only emht of the sixteen articles J o proposed have been entirely com- l pleted as yet and referred to the committee on style and revision. | They are the articles: 1. On executive department. 2. On impeachments. 3. On municipal corporations and police regulations. -? l.i 4. un amendment ana revision ui the constitution. 5. 0u miscellaneous matters. fi. On penal and charitable institutions. 7. On suffrage. 8. On militia. All the sections of the article on legislative department have been passed to their third reading save that relating to the homestead, discussed a whole day and then laid over, and the section relating to intermarriages. So this article is almost complete. All the sections of the article on finance and taxation have likewise been passed to a third reading, save five. Sections 2 and 3 were continued, and the further consideration of sic tions 0, S and 17 were postponed un til later. Section 1G was stricken out entirely. The same thing applies to the article of the declaration of lights, four of its sections being unacted upon as yet. Sections 12 and 13 are to be taken up along with the report of the suffrage commit tee. Sect ion 20 is to be taken up along with the article on judicial department. Section 22 was merely passed over to be taken up later. So all the sections of this article have been disposed of save four. The article on counties and county government has been passed to a third reading. Some amendments will be offered on the third reading and there may be a considerable tight. Of the aiticle on jurisprudence, ah the sections have passed their third reading save one?the last?that re latiug to lynchiDgs, which is now under discussion. The following articles have not even been taken up on their second reading yet: 1. On judicial department. 2. On eminent domain. THE HOMESTEAD. The homestead section of this ar tide, the only other one not yet sent to its third reading, stands as amended, as follows: Section 29. The general assembly shall enact such laws as will exempt from attachment and sale under any mesne or final process issued from any court to the head of any family residing in this State, a homestead of lands, whc-ther held in fee or auv lesser estate, not to exceed in value ?J.,000, with the yearly products thereof, and every head of a family residing in this State, whether having a homestead exemption in lands or not, personal property not to exceed in value the sum of ?500 The title to the homestead to be set off and assigned shall be absolute and be forever discharged from all debts of said debtor then existing or thereafter contracted except as hereinafter provided. Provided, that in case any woman having a separate estate shall be married to tbe head of a family who has not of his own sufficient property to constitute a homestead as hereinbefore provided, said married woman shall be entitled to a like exemption as provided for a head of a family. Provided further, that there shall not be an allowance of more than ?1,000 worth of real estate and more than ?500 worth of personal property to the husband and wife jointly. Provided, that no property shall be exempt from attachment, levy or sale for taxes, or for pavment of obligations contracted for purchase of said homestead or the erection of improvements thereon. Provided further, that the yearly proceeds of said homestead shall not be exempt from attachment, levy or sale for the payment of obligations contracted in the production of the same. Provided further, that no woman shall defeat the right of homestead, except it be by deed or molt gage, and only as against the mortgage debt, and no judgment creditor or other creditor whose lien does not bind the homestead shall have any right or equity to require a mortgage which embraces the homestead and other property to first exhaust the homestead. The heaviest work is now out of :he way. that is to say, the most im portant matters not yet finally settee! have been practically disposed jf. The articles 011 corporations and ulucation have both been pretty well settled upon. The system of comnon school education has been j pretty definitely determined with its I > mill tax, its Si poll tax, and in- ! ceasing the age subject to poll tax 1 rom oU to (10 years, its redisricting j provision and its suplemental tax. [t will hardly be altered on the final ending if the votes taken are any ndex to the temper of the conver- : tiou, although the increase of age from 50 to 00 years has caused much | talk unfavorable to the change. , There are only two sections of the i legislative article?the homestead j and inter-marriage sections?ytt to , be acted upon. This makes the third ; article nearly completed, and the I eleventh that has been considered, j except in the two particulars named | This leaves but two articles which I have not'received any consideration ; at all as vet, those on the judicial i " ' . department aud on eminent domain, j The latter will occasion no discussion j to amount to anything. Thus it is that the convention is getting towards the end of its work. There is no reason now. with proper work and discretion in the matter of talk, why the convention would not completeits work by the end of the first week in December at the outside. The only matters pending now outside of those referred to above, is the ordinance about the Greenville railroad bonds, which is ready for a third reading: the ordinance to be pro posed relative to the payment of the January interest, and the committee's report fixing the pay of the members and employees of the convention, which was finally settled last nigh?, voting themselves $4 per diem. This will likely come in for unfavorable coin men t by some, as it was under stood the pay was fixed at ?2, before and during the campaign. The ordinance postponing the time for the meeting 01 the general assembly until January 189G, was adopted. A provision was put in the article (n coi p rratlons for a State bank examiner. It is now Clatlin college, and in the future it is to have negro teachers and the college is to be divorced from the university. Death Wasjreferahle To Prostration After the Grip Hood's Sarsaparllla Built Up and Cave Perfect Health. W. K. Will lama j This Is a well-known merchant at Key West, Florida. His account of his condition after the grip, and how it was cured, should be read by all: " I had the grip twice, which came near ending my existence on the earth, and left me In a condition to which Death was Preferable About five months back I started to take Hood's Sersaparilla. I felt the good effects from the first bottle and by t he time I had taken three bottles I was 50 per cent, a bettor man physically than before. I -?m now full of ambition and feel that had I I Hood's sr> Cores not taken Hood's Sarsaparilla I should | now be dead and buried. I am thankful to Hood's Sarsaparilla, which has been instrumental of so much good to me as to thousands of others of our fellow men." W. H. Williams, B., Key West, Florida. Hood's Pills become the favorite C3thartio vith everyone who uses them. 25c. per box. OBITUARY. Charlie, infant son of Mr. and Mrs. Simon Ricard was born October the 6th, 1892, and died October the 28lb 1895, age 3 years and 22 days old. He was dedicated to God in Baptism and is now a sweet little bud in heaven. Though the hearts of parents, grand parents and all were bound to sweet little Charlie, yet God wanted him up higher. It is well with the child. Go to thy rest fair child, Go to thv dreamless b( d: Gentle, and meek, and mild, With blessings on thy head. An Important Office. To properly till its office and func tions, it is important that the blood be pure. When it is in such a con dition, the body is almost certain to be healthy. A complaint at this time is catarrh in some of its vaiious forms. A slight cold develops the disease in the head. Droppings of corruption passing into the lungs bring 011 consumption. The only wav to cure this disease is to purify the blood. The most obstinate cases of catarrh yield to the medicinal powers of Hood's Sarsapaiilla as if by magic, simply because it reaches the seat of the disease, and by purifying and vitalizing the blood, removes the cause. Not only does Hood's Sarsaparilla do this but it gives renewed vigor to tho whole system, making it possible for good j health to reign supreme. 3. | Masonic. I i A regular meeting of Sinclair i !
