SOMEWHAT PERSONAL.
We have decided views on all questions
of public interest, and we exp
e is them in language not to be misunderstood.
While we are as strong
in our support of the principles of
the Reform wing of the Democratic
party as any one in it, end rscogaize
' ** j.
Senator Tillman as its leader, yei we
do not propose to sneeze every time
he takes snufif. Much in his political
| career we find to censure. He has
made many grave political blunders,
which, under a normal condition cf
the public mind, would have hurled
hi m from t he high plice he occupies in
the counsels of his party. Notwithstanding
these mistakes, we believe
his heart to be right on matters
touching the interests of the people,
and beiDg a man of an unusual high
order of genius and brilliant attainments,
he is pecularly fitted by naond
a/lnofltmn tn be a leader of
L VUiV UAiVt V>4 MVMV?V? ? ? ?
men, the controller of circumstances
and the directcr of affairs. As we
have said before, in bis triumphs we
have gloried; in his successes we have
taken pride, and in the honors which
have been heaped upon him as a
recognition of his ability and fitness
as a leader, we have been proud. In
espousing his cause in the past we
have nothing to regret; nothing to be
ashamed of. In advocating it the
future, as we have in the past, we
propose to be governed entirely
by what, in our judgment, is for the
best interests of the people, defending
the policies of the leaders of the
Reform wing when we can consistently
do so, otherwise opposing them.
In other words upholding the light
and condemning tbe wrong, hewing |
I strait to the line and letting the chips
fall where they may.
* In the discussion of questions of a
public nature, in the settlement of
which the people are concerned and
in the discussion of which they should
take a deep interest, it goes without
saying that we are only giving expression
to our own individual opin
* ~i - ?
ions. As it is human to err, and as
we are human, it is possible, in
forming our opinions, for our judgment
to lead us astray, and for our
views to be erroneous. "We lay no
claim whatever to infallibility. Agitation
is the best means for the education
of the masses upon any given
I subject. It is the vehicle for the conveyance
of a multitude of thoughts,
ideas and views, an intelligent dissection
of which will aid, assist and*
help in the formation of correct opinions
and in arriving at logical conclusions.
For these reasons we cordially
invite criticism of our posi
tion on any issue, or the expression
of opinion upon any question. "We
try to be as correct as we possibly
can, and form our views only after a
careful study of tbe subject; but we
are liable to make mistakes even after
beiDg so careful. We will treat those
who may happen to differ with us
with due consideration, the utmost
kindness and all courtesy, and will
only strike back when struck and then,
not in anger but in self defense.
By a vote of 244 to 27, the House
of Representatives adopted the Senate's
concurrent resolution recogniz
rng the belligerent rights of the Cuban
insurgents. Col. Wm. Elliott,
now representing the First Congress
* T\ I < il 1 f?
lonat JLUstncr, was tne omy one 01
our Congressmen who voted against
the adoption of the resolution. It
now goes to the President for his
signature or veto. What action he
will take on it is, of course, only conjecture,
but the indications are that
he will carefully ascertain the facts
before taking final action; the proba
bilities are against the approval'of the
resolution by the President By
the adoption of the resolution Spain
has been stirred from center to circumference,
the press of that country
being particularly severe and bitter
in its denunciation of the United
States. The following are the resolutions
as sent to the President:
"In the cpiuion of congress a condition
of public war exists'oet ween the government
of Spain and the government proclaimed and
for some time maintained by force of arms
by the people of Cuba; and that the United

neutrality between the contending powers
according to each all the rights belligerents
in the ports and territory of the
United States. That the friendly offices
of the United States should be offered bv
*

for the recognition of the independence of
* C iba."
Senator Tillman started bis Presidential
boom at Lexington, Ky., April
11, in a two hours' speech, before an
immense and enthusiastic audience
of over a thousand persons. His
reception was an ovation, and his
views on the financial issue was
wildly cheered and he swayed his
0 ^
audience as no man lias yet moved
it. In the course of his remaiks ho
expressed the opinion that the National
convention would be contrclied
;
by the silverites, and hence a bolt is
unnecessary.
The sub committee of the House !
committee on privileges and elections,
having heard the contested q
election case of Johnson vs. Stokes <3
from this District, has made a re- r,
port to the whole committee recom- ^
mending the seating of Dr. Stokes, jj
This practically settles the case as
the almost invariable custom of t
the House is to adopt the report of {
the committee. We extend our heart- E
iest congratulations to the people of &
this District on the victory of Dr. t
and we are ^ratified to know ;
that the committee, having a Repub- t
lican majority, has risen above parti- \
zen feelings, and decided the case en t
its merits, giving the seat to the one t
who was honestly and fairly elected
and by such a majority that there j
were absolutely no grounds for a (
contest. \
The same committee has reversed j
its former conclusion in the Murray- j
Elliott contest and has submitted it3 (
report in favor of seating Murray. t
<
We would be deeply indebted to (
some of those who are clamoring so (
lnsfilv fnr a bolt, to name a siDgle ,
instance in which any good ever came
of bolting the party nominations?
Just let your memory turn back over (
the history of past bolts, and it will (
invariably be found that the cause ^
for which the bolt was made has
been the sufferer. Yet we are told
by men whose enthusiasm has apparently
run away with their judgment j
that a bolt from the National party
is the only salvation for silver. The
silver men can control the next Dem- ,
ocratic National party if they will (
make the fight within the party lines.
It is possible for them to adopt (
a platform, entirely favorable to the (
free coinage of silver, and nominate
candidates who will be faithful to
the commands of the people.
The Democratic party of Maine, 5
havmg deciarea lor silver at me rano (
of 16 to 1, a number who favor the
i
financial policy of President Cleve
land, have nominated an independent
cand:date for Congress from the Second
District in opposition to the regular
nominee. Let the Democrats of
South Carolina stand firm in their
allegiance to their party, for the ?
friends of silver will certainly con- ]
trol the National convention. '
<
The Democrats in many Western 3
and Southern States have made tho 1
fight for silver within the party lines I
and in every case have won a glori- <
ous victory. In a recent primary
election in Alabama for delegates to
the State Democratic Convention the
silver Democrats carried the State
overwhelmingly for Johnson, the
avowed bimetallism and silver. This
result is considered a great victory
and the silver men of that State are
celebrating it with much enthusiasm.

The article of Mr. Dreher is before
our readers and they can judge ^
whether or not our remarks were jus- f
tified by the words he used, especially
those found in the last para- {

however, that Mr. Dreher has sc- 3
knowledged that, like the Dutchman, j |
he did not me;.n what he said cr j <
rather, said what he did not mean. j
We would urge upon the Presidents <
of the various Democratic clubs the j
importance of having a full turnout at i

to secure a full attendance of the
members.

A 215 IMPROVEMENT.
The new State Liquor Board of
ontrol, through its Chairman and
eeretarv, has issued a new set of
tiles to the county dispensers clearly
efining their duties under the new
iw.
It is evidently the purpose of this
Soard to correct the evils in the sysem
inaugurated under the manageaent
of the present Liquor Commisioner
in furtherance of his object to
o make the selling of liquors by the
ftate a means of increasing her rev nues,
and the carrying out of which
las made the system very offensive
,o many who were inclined to look
ipon it with favor. Beyond the possibility
of a successful contradiction
t can be safely asserted that the sale
)f liquor under the dispensary sys:em
has not been made according to
;he provisions of the law. Many of
:hese violations of the law were
doubtless the results of erroneous
md misleading instructions given the
lispensers whose duty it was to obey
the law themselves, and to see that
others, dispensers as well as citizens,
obeyed it.
The new orders to the dispensers
ire stringent in reference to their
iuties and positive and mandatory,
sven threatening, in tone, and c >11
for a faithful compliance with all the
provisions of the law tending to the
restriction of the sale of liquors.
We are gratified to notice that
the Board is so earnest in its determination
to devote more attention to
the moral features of the law than
to the idea that the State assumed
control of the liquor traffic solely as
i means of raising a revenue, and in
their efforts to carry out their laudable
undertaking the Board should,
and doubtless will, receive the sup
port and encouragement of every
person who really and truly desires to
see much of the evil arising from
the habit of using intoxicating liquors
as a beverage corrected, and
accept the dispensary system as a
means to that end.

With a single barrel with small
shot on one side and a double barrel
pouring hot shot on the other side?
thus surrounded and enfiladed is
?nough to make a fellow feel like surrendering,
but I am -not made that
way. I will rneke a desperate effort
to cut through and stand by my
colors.
Mr. Editor, I am completely, astonshed
and amazed at the tenor or
spirit of your articles?let me assure
pou I did not think of my language
xpplying to you?I was only thinkng
of patronage cuckoos who had al:eady
sold to Cleveland and the
noney power, and sitting in very fine
jffices surrounded with every luxury.
3, no; I don't believe you will ever
jo back on the people to make the
ibove language apply to you. Any
)f us are liable to have erroneous
dew3 upon the perplexing questions
>f the times. I have expressed my
self as favoiing a bolt rather than
nake the mistake of '92. You op>osp,
why is it we cannot discuss the
natter in friendship. I have looked

md I cannot find where I have erred
? i j 11 # il. t
;o greatly as to can iortu irom your
re this sentence: "bis baseless and
groundless charge of betraying the
jeople for the patronage of Cleveand."
I do most emphatically deny
naking such a charge. You remind
ne of the young lady who when her
nother was quarreling with her
leighbor, opened the window
ooked out and said: "Hurry up,
nother and call her a thief before
he gets ahead of you." It was no
tse for you to hurry, for I do not inend
to use a harsh word against you:
'or there is no reason why I should.
In 18G0 at Charleston, the Demojratic
party divided on the territorial
paection, and both factions made
aominations. Bolt was previously
hreatened just as now. Many men

flatly refused to vote the

The only hope for this country, if
there is any at all, is for all financial
reformers to get together under a
new name and go into the campaign
against any party or parties controlled
in any way by the monev
power.
You, Mr. Editor, have expressed a
different opinion?let time prove the
right. As exceptions are taken tc

St. Stephen Looses a Valuable
Member.
On the night of February 27,1896,
the angel of death visited the happy
home of Mr. and Mrs. John H.
Meetze and snatched away the sweet
soul of their daughter, Mary Olivia.
Rarely are we called upon to
mourn the loss of a young lady possessed
of so manv attributes of
character. How noble, how truly
great, and benevolent, her deeds of
charity are known to every one who
enjoyed the pleasure of her acquaintance;
her pastor bore testimony of
this in the selection of the text upon
which he based the well chosen remarks
in his eulogy over her remains:
"Thy gentleness hath made
me great," II Samuel 22, 36.
She wa3 a faithful member and
ardent worker in St Stephen Evangelical
Lutheran church, in which
she served as organist seven successive
years. Two years 6he was Recording
Secretary for the Woman's
Aid Society of this church, dating
from the first election of officers, she
beinsr one of the twelve charter mem
O
bers of this society, and remained a
cheerful and willing worker to her
death. "While we recognize the
wisdom of Almighty God, and bow
submissively to this dispensation of
his will, which hath so sorely bereft
us; yet it seems strange that she
should, after having labored so assidiously
in the interest of the new temple
which she hoped so soon to
realize, be taken just at its consumption.
With her death many a cherished
hope was shattered, not only in her
home will she be missed, where she
was loved so dearly; but in the
church, where she was an earnest
worker, and in society to which she
was an ornament. Verily, she acted
well her part upon this stage of life,
as the curtain of death went down
upon the last scene, it arises for her
to reappear happier in a more glorious
realm where all is peace and
love.
She leaves behind her a life and
devotion indelibly stamped upon the
i 1- j u:..u
nearis 01 loveu utes wuiw uiu uoci
be erased. Tbe choice and beautiful
flowers which adorned her casket expressed
in unspoken language her
lovliness of character, the snow white
lily exemplified her purity, the sweet
violet her modesty, the exquisite
blue hyacinth her constancy, the
fern her sincerity; here we recall the
words of her pastor uIn all things
she was sincere," the heliotrope her
devotion the sweet elyssium was
suggestive of her heavenly home,
and the evergreen wreath of her eternity.
Dreary and sad was the day
she wa9 laid to rest, dismal and lone,
Oh! so lonely the grave, inexpressible
the aching in the hearts of her loved
ones as they turned to the home
from which she had gone out forever.
"Go to the grave in all thy early prime;
In fnll activity of zeal and power;
A Christian cannot die before his time,
The Lord'f appointment is th9 servant's
hour."
One Who Loved Her.
In Memoriam.
"For none return from those silent
shores,
Who cross with the boatman cold and
pale ;
We hear the dip of the golden oars,
And catch a gleam of the snowy sail?
And lo, they hare passed from our yearning
heart,
They cross the stream, and are gone for
aye.
We may not sunder the veil apart,
That hides front our vision the gates of
day.
* * Yet somewhere, I know, on the unseen
shore?
They watch and beckon and wait for me."
At noontide, when the sunshine
was gilcliDg the earth with a flood of
golden glory, within the stricken
home of Mr...and Mrs. James E.
? - - . "*r
Kawl, loved ones, paster and friends,
with tear-dimmed eyes and bated
breath, watched beside one of God's
children whose dying eyes were already
beholding the glory unspeakable
of her heavenly home.
Mrs. Sally Hendrix Snelgrove, the
subject of this imperfect sketch, fell
asleep in Jesus on Monday, March
2nd, 189G, aged thirty-four years.
Though her life was short, she had
drunk deeply of the cup of sorrow
and suffering, and those who knew
and loved her best, and whose hearts
ache for the sound of her voice and
the touch of her wasted hand, feel a
chastened joy that the burning fever
and racking cough of her dread
malady are past, and that she is, as
she so often desired to be, "safe in
r the arms of Jesus.'' ller life, though
a brief one, was full of good deeds.

To her stepfather and his sods she
i was a true daughter and sister.
Repeatedly she thanked the former
for his untiring kiuduesa to her. To
i her now childless mother, and to her
, own dear son, her only child, she was
^ unspeakably precious, the light and
joy of their lives. Her love for her
boy made her tender and gentle to
all children, and the tears and sobs
r of little girls and boys, as they looked
* their last upon her sweet face, love
k speaking testimony to the affection
i they felt for her. Long after disease
had weakened her body she actively
engaged in all the work of her beloved
Lutheran church. Her class of
little gills in the Sunday school, and
her work in the Ladies' Aid Society
were especially dear to her. The
members of the latter remember how
faithfully she performed her duties
as Recording Secretary, when her
strength was all insufficient for her
work, and when her feeble voice could
scarcely be heard in a large room.
At a meeting of this society since her
death, our loved president spoke
most feelingly and beautifully of her
loving service for her Master, dwelling
upon these words of Longfellow:
"What seem to us but sad funeral ta
May be heaven's distant lamps."
and speaking of two of our best and
dearest members who went home
almost hand in hand, as bright and
shining lamps in "the land beyond
the sunset."
Those of us who arevspared to
worship in our prospective new
church, will sadly miss those two
cherished ones, Mrs. Snelgrove and
Miss Mollie Meetze, who so willingly
gave their strength and means for
the promotion of its interests.
Though having so many strong and
tender ties to bind her to earth, the
subject of this paper, frequently ex
pressed to her dear ones, and to her
beloved pastor her readiness, yea her
impatience "to depart and be with
Christ." Rich in the love of relatives
and friends, and sorrowing when they
grieved for her, she calmly arranged
her earthly affairs and longingly
awaited her summons to her
eternal home. She selected her pall
bearers, and requested the hymn,
"Nearer my God to Thee," to be sung
at her funeral services. Death had
fthsnlntolv Tin tprrnra fnr her. nnd
only a few hours before the end she
whispered to a friend. "I am not
alone, God is with me." Even in her
last hours she thanked the watchers
beside her bed-side for their kindness
to her, urging them to rest and
sleep, invariably requesting them
earnestly to "comfort mama and son
when I am gone." Her pastor spoke
in touching and comforting terms, in
his funeral discourse, of her many
Christian graces, saying that those
rarest and loveliest traits, humility
and patience were predominant in
l-ipr ISfp A Uirnro rnnoTpnrotinn
~ ? o
ercd to pay its last tribute of affection
to li6r memory, and with many tears,
we left her quietly sleeping 'neath
the flower covered mound in St.
Stephens Gods' acre. There to
await the Master's coming. "Blessed J
are the dead which die in the Lord^'
Yea, saith the spirit they rest from
their labors, and their works do follow
them." E. H. K.
