So many people make the mistake of taking remedies which at best are only tonics and cannot possibly reach their trouble. Mr. Asa Smith, Greencastle, Indiana, says: "For years I have suffered with Sciatic Rheumatism, which the best physicians were unable to relieve. I took many patent medicines but they did not seem to reach my trouble. I gradually grew worse until I was un able to take my food / '*? J'Jsq or handle myself in any way; I was abso\JMjgjP. lately helpless. Three bottles of S.S.S. relieved me so that I soon able to move my right arm; before , *onS * could walk P^" across the room, and when I had finished one dozen bottles was cared completely and am as well as ever. I now weigh 170." A Real Blood Remedy. S.S.S. cures Scrofula, Cancer, Eczema, and any form of blood troubles. If you have a blood disease, take a blood medicine?S.S.S. (guatar.teedpurely vegetatable) is exclusively for the blood and is recommended for nothing else. It forces out the poison matter permanently. We will send to anyone Legislative Proceedings. What the Solons are Doing to Earn Their Per Diem. Both morning and night sessions of the House Wednesday were almost entirely consumed in the discussion of the supply act. The estimates made by the ways and means committee were largely reduced and there seems to be a healthy disposition to economize in the expenditure of the peoples money when it can be done without impairing the efficiency of the public service. As the the session is drawing to a close, it may not be amiss to say that, with a few exceptions, the present General Assembly, as a whole, is a great improvement over any of its predeces sors and has done remarkably well in disposing of the woik brought before it, and we believe that what has been linished, will give general satisfaction to the people at large, and the members can go before their constiuents with a clear conscience and the good and clear record of having . been faithful to their trust in performing their duties with an eye single to the public weal. Mr. Etird's bill to divide the privilege tax on fertilizers between Win throp and Clemson colleges was the occasion of a lengthy debate, the following being a synopsis: Mr. ESrd had an amendment to give $30,000 to Winlhiop and the remaider to the public schools. If Winthrop's ?30,000 was not made up after Clemson had gotten her s then the general fund should pay the deficit. His previous amendment covered all this save the reference to public schools. Mr. Caugbman wanted to know if this ?30,000 to Win throp, was to be in addition to the appropriation already made. Mr. W. H. Thomas said that the farmers of the State would awake quickly to the fact that the tax they were oavini? was uoiner elsewhere " t v O w w and would demand the repeal of this tax. It was now kept at Clemson by "virtue of the fact that there was an experimental station there. It could not be properly applied at WiDthrop. Soon all these institutions would be knocking at the door for direct appropriations. Then which aud how niHDy would go down? He called upon the friends of higher education to rally to the support of the colleges. Mr. Kinard did not believe there was any use to get scared. The farmers had no objection to letting part of this money go to AVinthrop college. If Clemson got too much it was right to give the surplus to AVinthrop. Mr. McLaurin asked why they should not make the tax 53 cents instead of 25 cents, and thus support ail the colleges if it was right to support AVinthrop with it. Mr. Efird disclaimed any hostility to the institutions of higher learning. The recoids showed that he had supported them. He had pledged himself to his people. He had told his people that Clemson was getting too much; not because he was an enemy to it, but a friend to it. Unless something was done in this mattc-r a legislature would soon be here that j o would act. He called upon the j friends of Winthsop and CleoiseD to stand to this bill. Mr. Bljthe said they should keep this question on the proper plane. : They had just voted to give Win- j throp $30,0i'0 in the appropriation bill; now they propose to give this col- ; lege another $30,000. When Clemson was established it was the understanding that sue was to be supported by this tax. They did not j know how much Clemson needed. If the tax was too great fur Clemson, the showing that it is should be made. The House then refused to reconi ? sider the veti * herein* 31 r. Knrd's ! amendment had been agreed to. Mr. Ashley demanded the a} es and j noes on the question of ordering (he* ; bill to a third reading. Mr. Lcuiujod said that the State ; had equipped the college and it j could, in his opinion, get along \vt 11 | on ?30,000. It was time to cdl a I halt on alt this giviDg of money to I Clemson. i Mr. Stui kie said he wisfced to know j what ibey \\beie going to do with ; Wintbrop's money already given iu : the appiopiiation bill. Mr. Efird said that the Chief C.eik I at Clemsou bad told him they could J get along very well with $30,000. Mr. Stuikie said that the tiustees were the only peisons who could tell what Cieimou needtd. Ouebud said i r\ \ they needed more than S30,0l 0. Mr. Efird repeated that unless Ibis extravagance was stopped the people would not submit to it. It was a fact that a few years ago the tax bad not amounted to more tbaD $30,000, and yet the college got along all right. The vote was then taken on the question of ordeiiug the bill to a third reading and resulted as stated above. The appropriation to the South Carolina College was reduced after a le-Dgtby debate. The House refused to make its usual appropriation of ?2,400 to the State Fair, and so this association will Lave to depend upon the enterprise and energy of its officers for success or fail. The appropriation asked for by the penitentiary autboiiiies was grauti d. The supply bill provides fur a levy for State purposes of 5 mill9. The Mackey claim of ?2,500 for legal services rendered in securing the Citadel for the State from the United States, was agreed to after opposition from Banks Ciiughmau, the member from Saluda. The Senate killed nearly all the bills brought before and in this respect it was "slaughter day" in the Senate. Over some of the measures which had the enacting words stricken out, there was a hard and determined but ineffectual fight made. Mr. Dean, of the special committee to whom was referred that part of the Governor's message touching the phosphate industry, submitted a miuoiity report recommending thut the office of Phosphate Inspector be abolished. The street paving bill was indefiuitelv postponed by a vote of 21 to 1G. The broad tire bill was killed. The following are among the bills which passed to their second reading: To amend section 7 of the act providing for the appointment of the Magistrates. The House bill to amend the general railway law relating to certain penalties and to insert a new section. The unfavorable report on Mr. Verner's bill to make seduction a crime was adopted and the bill killed. The joint resolution to require the penitentiary authorities to reduce the cotton acreage 50 per cent, on State farms, was killed. Thursday Mr. Efird was again called upon to defend his bill for the distribution of the privilege tax on fertilizers from the attacks of its opponents and he succeeded in skillfully steering clear of all breakers. It was given its final reading and sent to the Senate, where life or death awaits it. The surprise of the day was the refusal of the House to strike out the enacting words of Mr. Childs' prohibition bill by a vote of 52 to 49. The appropriation bill received its third reading and was sent to the Senate. The Senate bill providing for three Supervisors of Registration instead of one, passed to its third reading after an attempt was made to kill it. The Senate again used the pruning knife to advantage and numerous bills of more or less importance found au untimely grave beneath the litter and rubbish of the Senate Chamber, the Pee Dee county bill being among them. The county government bill, after being amended, passed and was sent to the House. The bill to regulate express and telegraph companies, received its final reading and was sent to the House. The motion to strike out the enacting words of the bill regulating the rate of interest on contracts was defeated. Mr. May field's redisricting bill was killed. Several bills passed their second reading and the Senate adj mined. -* ?. To Our Customers. Chamber luiVs Cough Remedy is the best cough syrup we have ever used ourselves or iu our families. W. H.

AVe take the following extract irom a h ngthy fditoiial in the last issue of I lie Pialmont Headlight, which in our judgment completely upsets the charge that Governor Ellerbe appointed Mr. E])ton Comptroller General so that, by fo doing, he would strengthen liis political fences and thu3 making bis "calling and election sure." The reasons alleged to have been given by Governor Eileibe, ai e reasonable, ju^t and fair, ar.d only those who are anxious to take bis place, could possibly and fault with them and they only by a wide stretch of a fer ile imagination. The Headlight say-: "As everyone familiar with the government- of our State knows, the House is the representative body, for its members comes more direct from the people, and it will be seen that Mr. Epton has the endorsement of his State. And a careful examination of the above vote shows that Mr. Epton was backed by as good and true men as South Carolina produces. and factional lines were not observed among bis supporters. This vote further shows that a maioritv of the members of the House realize the fact that the grand old county of Spaitaoburg, and the Piedmont sec tion deserve some recognition from the Democrats of our State: and to defeat Mr. Epton was not the turning down of a candidate, but a slap in the face of the people of a county and section that have formed a bolwaik for the Democratic party 8gainst Republican domination. Ever since the days of reconstruction Spartanburg county has given her solid white vote to our p r y, and Mr. i Ep'on's appointment by Gov. Ellerbe was the first time that our people have ever received recognition by being given a St,ate oflicc And the defeat cf Mr. Epton was not only a repudiation of this grand old county and its people, but a slur cast upon our entire Piedmont section, which the representatives of our neighboring counties felt and resented by their suppoit of Mr. Epton. The writer of this article, while in Columbia last week, called on Gov. Ellerbe and discussed the defeat of Mr. Epton. Gov. Eilerbe stated that so far as his making auy trade with Mr. Eptou before or after his appointment, it is absolutely false, for political issues were not discussed by either of them. While comptroller himself, Gov. E'lerbe was impressed with tie efficiency of Mr. Epton, and knew there was not a man in our State more fitted to discharge the responsible duties of t hat aAi/?o fPon Ti P Pufah Ptif. finv | iUUii a JLyu u W ? Eilerbe says be has another and equally as strong reason for naming Mr. Eptou to succeed Mr. Norton. He felt that bis own Pee Dee section bad been given more than a fair share of the public patronage. Himself a Pee Dee man bad been elected governor by tbe people, and bis largest majority came from Spartanburg county. When Senator Earle died, be appointed another Pee Dee man to succeed him, which was the highest office* within his gift. He had also chosen two Pee Dee men to serve him as piivate secretaries, while the comptroller's office has for years been filled with officials selected from the Pee Dee section, Gen. Noi ton himself being a Marion county man. So to have appointed Mr. Durham, another Pee Dee man, as comptroller, over the earnest appeals he received from Spartanburg for recognition, would hive rightfully laid himself open to the charge of unjust favoritism for Lis own section. He ft It that Spartanburg county and this I growing ana prosperous neeimont i section meiited and should have at J least one lepiesenalive in our Slate | government, and knowing Mr. Ep! ton's peculiar titness for the position, | he felt it due our people, as also to j bis own sense of fairness, to appoint him comptroller. Gov. Ellerbe also i knew that Mr. Eptou was a friend to | and supporter of Col. Irby, but he ; did not intend to permit political j differences to influence him in his j official duties. Gov. Eilei be did exactly right j i when he appointed Mr. Epton, and ; j every fair minded and just man in our State will endorse him and honor his motives. So far as the tight on Gov. Ellerbe through Mr. Epton is concerned, it will never subserve the j ends of his enemies. He did exactly j righr, and will be endorsed. The J people of Spartanburg ft el that they i : have been unfairly discriminated i against in the selection of our public officers, and are under obligations to Governor hilt 1 be fur being the hrst j | executive to recognize their lights. ! And that the striking down of Mr. | i Epton for partisan political purposis | and to vent personal spleen against | ! the Governor, will be resented by not only the voters of the Old I:ca I District, but of this entire Eiedimnt section and bt It. One excuse for the fight made on i Mr. Epton was that he refused to | retain Mr. Durham in his position as ; chief clerk. We have from Mr. i Kpton's own lips the following, which throws new light upon that charge. Mr. Epton says he had scarcely taken his seat as comptroller when Mr. Derham came into ! Lis oliico ami deulaudid to know | w lether or not he intended to retain j j l im stating that he had another posi j r_i?? - -cr^w^?_. J ??&.? . ? ** til.11 offered ];i:ii. !iJ:d wSiicll 5 - konWU to lx: secret?>y for his friend, (Jor{. ressnian Norton. Mr. Ep'en oxplained to Mr. Deibuui that bo bad scarcely entered upon bis duties, and j o* course was not ready t> pledge himself to xtain any one; ibat be wanted to examine into tbo woik so as to act with all the lights hi-fore him. And furthermore, be was only appointed until tie legislatuie convened. when an election must he bf Id, but 1 e would be ^lnl for Me. tx , , n . i ... i^einam 10 ioriia:u in ms oju piace until that time. But, this did not suti.-fy Mr. Dei bam, vho continued, however, to bold hi* place under Mr. Epton, and when the legislature met announced himself an opposing cai didate. Iu the meantime, Mr. Epton. lul ori ng under the impression that Mr. Dot ham intended to resign, appointed Mr Bradley, of Abbeville county, in his place, to assume the dutiss should he be reelected Mr. Smith, who has for many yeais drawn ?1,5"0 salary a* book keeper in the comptroller's office, is a Pe D e mar, and Mr. Epton intended to retrain him. But he did exactly tight to omit Mr. Derham iu making out his new list of appointees, for it would have been unfair to our upper section to have retained two Pe Dee men in his office. M"Lile*G/n. Norton was comptroller, he appointed none but Pe Dee men, and yet nothing was said or thought of it. But just because Mr. Epton saw proper to give the smalbst salary at Ids disposal to an up coi ntry n an, a great hue and cry was taised. But those members of the legDln ture who are carrying their person; 1 resentment against Gov. Elleibe to such extremes are going entirely too far, and the people of South Carolina will rebuke them when the time comes. Gov. Elltrbe has been ui fortunate in having so many appointments thrown upon his hands by death and resignation, for wheio he gratifies one man he arrays against himself ail the opposing candidates and their friends. But an investigation of the appointments made by Gov. Eilerbe will show that he has named honorable and entirely competent men to fill every position within his gift, lfe has made mistakes, but even the Governor's bitterest enemies, have never charged that even the slightest bh t of suspicion rests upou his private or official record. He has given South Carolina a clean and honest administration. and during the year that he has served as Governor, our State has been entirely free from the taint of scandal. The dispensary, in spite of having to meet competition from outside dealers, is making money, and not a dollar has been lost though efficers selected to administer its affairs. The penitentiary has paid off the last dollar of its indebtedness, and turned a handsome sum into the public treasury. In fact, every department of our State government is honestly and economically administered, and it is thought, in spite of all drawback?, and the loss of phosphate royalty, that taxes will be re uutcvi iiiio )iai. If. is but just and fair to Governor Eilerbe to accord him praise where he merits it, and no one can truthfully deny that he has given, and is still giving, South Carolina a clean cut and business-like administration. Gov. Ellerbe's mistakes have ail been political mistakes; and when the people repair to the ballot box they will not count as much. It was Dot the people who defeated Mr. Eptoo, but politicians, and that is proven when certain members of the legislature stooped to tight one man through another.
