The C >unty Democratic Convention
which assembled in the court
house at this place last Monday was
truly a representative body and was
composed of some of the best
material of the county. There was
an absence of all effort at wire pulliDg
and slate making.
There was a disposition exhibited
by some members of the convention
to take from the people the right to
choose their Magistrates by popular
vote and have them appointed
through a recommendation by the
Executive Committee. A resolution
to this effect was introduced by Mr.
W. J. McCartha, a delegate from
Risbton, and was the occasion of a
considerable discussion. In defense
of his resolution, he claimed that the
Magistrates, or at least some of them,
were not doing their duty in the
prosecution of the violators of the
dispensary law and seemed to think
that where an officer depended upon
a popular vote for his election he was
greatly influenced by local opinion
and his official acts were done with a
view of making himself popular with
his constituents.
Dr. Crosson opposed the resolution
in timely and well chosen words
"SY. B. Seay thought the lowest as
well as the highest officer should be
elected by the people.
The resolution was rejected.
Another matter which occasioned
a lengthy and at times an animated
debate, was the proposition sent up
by the Boylston club, to have the
township commissioners suggested
by townships in the primary election
for appointment by the Governor.
Mr. J. W. Dreher thought it best
to leave the appointment as now, as it
might greatly interfere and embar
rass the Supervisor in his woik if a
board was elected which did rot
sympathize with hira and were not in
accord with his plans, besides he did
not believe in so much scramble for
offices.
This resolution was vigorously
fought and was killed.
On account of ill health Mr.
Thomas Addison has been forced to
retire from the management of the
Columbia Register. He has been
succeeded by Mr. W. McB. Sloan.
We wish both outgoing and incoming
managers abundant success.
We throw out the suggestion in behalf
of the health of our soldier boys.
Why not mobulize the troops at
Lightwood Knott Springs. There
is an abundance of pure water, an
excellent drill ground and is away
from the small pox epidemic.
There is more Catarrh in this sec
tion of the country than all other
diseases put together, and until tbelast
few years was supposed to be
incurable. For a great many years
doctors pronounced it a local disease,
and prescribed local remedies, and
by constantly failing to cure with
local treatment, pronounced it incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to
be a constitutional disease and therefore
requires constitutional treat
-ment. Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufactured
by F. J. Cheney <fc Co.,
Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional
cure on the market. It is
taken internally in doses from 10
drops to a teaspoonful. It acts
directly on the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system. They offer
one hundred dollars for any case it
fails to cure. Send for circulars and
testimonials. Address.

"I was a sufferer for ten years, try- !
iog most all kinds of pile remedies, '
but without success, DeWitt's Witch j

permanent cure." As a permanent j
cure for piles De Witt's Witch Hazel j

The war revenue bill has passed :
'
Cmorress. It includes the bond, fea- ,
O
ture, which the Democrats vigorously, I
but ineffectually, fought, making an I
effort to substitute an income tax i
provision for the bond issue.
j
The Spanish version of the bomb- j
ardment of Matanza is that the fort i- j
fications have not suffered in spite i
of 300 shells fired by the American j
fleet and nothing was killed except j
an aged mule which was quietly
munching grass. This version is so
fresh that it must be taken with huge j
quanties of salt.
Alabama has made up her quota j
of volunteers called for by the Presi j
dent.
Miss Clara Barton, and her Red j
Cross nurses, has sailed for Key j
West.
John Walts, arrested at New Or- j
leans on April 29, as a Spanish spy, I
will be shot.
Governor Bob Taylor of Tennes- '
see, has volunteered, as also has Governor
Bradley of Kentucky.
From the movement of the troops
it is possible that our boys will occupy
Cuba inside of ten days.
It is announced that Gen. Wade
will have comttfand of the United
States troops which will be seat to
Cuba.
It is reported that the President
will immediately call for 10,000 ne
gro volunteers. It is thought that
the response wilt oe prompt.
The war news bas been of an intensely
exciting nature this week on
account of the beginning of actual
hostilities. While the news is not
altogether reliable as to the defeat
of the Spanish fleet at Manila, on
account of the cable being cut by
j the Spanish, yet enough is known to
| warrant us in saying that Admiral
i Dewey has won a brilliant and im|
portant victory, and one that has
placed him in the foremost rank of
American commanders.
The bombardment of Manila was
terrific and its effects withering. The
t
j American fleet was exposed to the
i combined fire of the enemv's fort
I and squodrau, but gallantly repulsed :
j the Spanish fleet and silenced the j
' guns of the fort. Spanish advices j
' of the engagement are to the effect j
that her squadron has been com- j
pletely annihilated. The Spanish j
seoond class cruiser Don Juan de j
Austria was severely damaged, and j
her commander killed.. Another of ;
the enemy's vessel was burned and '
the warships Mindauao and Ulloa i
were slightly damaged All of the j
vessels of the enemy 's squadron received
damages of a more or less serious
nature. Damages were done
tn the American fleet but to what ex- !
tost is not known. It is thought by !
officials in Washington that Admiral
Dewey has captured and occupies j
Manila and will use it as a base for i
supplies. No definite news, however, j
can be received from the Admiral in- j
side of two weeks.
The recent explosion of several j
powder mills has caused the United i
States government to take extraordi- {
nary precuations to protect them aru
detachments of artillery have been
detailed to guard them.
All the States have raised their i
quota of volunteers called for by the |
President and they have been moli- j
lized at the places designated in
each State by the authorities.

Mr. Erantlc-y's Announcement.
To the Voters of the Seventh Congressional
Distiict:
My candidacy for Congress haviug
been very kindly mentioned by the
various papers of the District, and
believing that it is now time that the
people should know definitely my intentions
and the platform of principles
upon which I shall make the
race, and in order that they may have
time to consider for themselves
irKutliov nr nnf tiro niineinles for
r 1'?
which I stand are for their best interest,
I now give my reasous for
making the race, together with an
embodiment of the platform on which
I stand.
I will make the race because I believe
the people of this district will
favor my election io the lower house
of Congress and because I am ambitious
to return to the National capital
empowered with the authority to
vindicate a ligbteous cause for which
I was rebuked by the traitors of
Democracy and retu^ped to my people
at home. I believe that my acquaintance
with national affairs for
three years in Washington will enable
me to honestly and effectively
j discbarge the duties devolving upon
this high office in the interest of the
people, and assist in no small way in
bringing about needed reforms in
j finance, trade, and taxation that shall
i inure to the wellfare of our peo|
plo and bring relief to all classes
; who labor for an honest doiiiir by
. honest toil.
I believe the financial question will
be paramount to all others in the coming
Congressional contest throughout
the United States. My ideas upon
this question are too well known bv
the people to need an explanation now.
I am unalterably opposed to mono
? t i t ?i j* i
] m -tansm. i ueueve m guiu auu mi
ver, the dollar of our daddies, the
honest dollars that were given to us
j by the fathers of our government
| through our constitution when they
i declared that gold and silver coined
[ free at a fixed ratio shall be the
money of our constitution. I am a
: bimettilist. I am in favor of the free
J coinage of silver and gold at the
ratio of Id to 1, without begging the
- consent of auy foreign power. I am
as honest aud as conscientious iu mv
belief now as I was in the last
National campaign when I espoused
the cause of true Democracy and
fought iu the iuterest of the great
common people from every stump in
the valleys of West Virginia. We
need retrenchment and reform in
National politics. We need young
men. bold, aggressive, and conservative
from the ranks of the people,
who can stand uncorrupted before
the syndicates of monopolies and
trusts and speak in no uncertain
tones of the evils and wants of the
laboring masses. My untiring energy
and efforts shall be freely given
to loosen the shackles of British gold
that have been fastened upou us
through the treachery of American
plutocrats in high places of honor
which they have befouled. 1 shall
leave nothing undone to foster a revolution
in American politics?a revolution
that shall presage the dawn of
a brighter period for those in the
furrow, in the factory and iu the
shop.
I am not a protectionist by any
means, but I believe with the Chicago
platform that the tariff duties should
bear equally upon every sectiou of
the Union und as near equally as
possible upon all classes and conditions
of men. 1 believe that we
of the South arc as much entitled to
t in If or bounty ou our raw cotton
as the manufacturers who weave it
iuto cloth. I believe the man who
digs iron is as much entitled to a
tariff on that raw iron as the
man who refines it into sted
I do not bilicve in free raw mateiial
for the South and a protect'd
manufacturfd product for the North.
This is the class legislation that has
I enriched tli?- North and impuv:sL?d j
j tbe Sulltb.
Iu my opinion the income tux will j
play no small part in the coming j
campaigu. I am heartily iu favor of j
such a tux f.r by suc-h a system of
*
national tax-it iui\ the bunions cf tax i
.
ation will rest as well upon the vast
corporate powers of wealth as i p >u
the mail who labors fur his daily \
bread.
I believe Congress should repeal
the 10 per cent, on State banks, and
in this way establish the old Demo- !
cratic form of State banks that we j
may have an elastic currency," con- j
trading and expanding in unison j
with the volume of trade aud busi- j
ness interests cf the producers as j
w?ll as the consumers, thus allowing
loans at easy rates of interest during j
tlmsjp spasmis of the vear when those '
""V%" V " " v'
who (ill the soil most need financial j
relief. In this way we can have re i
lief at Lome without bowing down
to the great ni( ney centres of the j
world.
In conclusion, as the question has (
been often a^ked cue, I will say that i
I am not a faction candidate. It has j
always beeu my policy to suppoit
those men regardless of faction \v'? o j
I believe most honest and capable of !
filling positions of trust and honor
I did this conscientiously always
having in view the wellfare of the
entire people. If I am to be elected
simply because I may belong to one i
or another faction, I say plainly that j
I would rather remain in private life I
for if that is all that can commend
me to the people of the Seventh Di.-- j
trict, I deseive to remain as I am, a
private citizen. The candidate for j
this high office who cannot stand ;
upon his merits as a man, but de- j
pends for success upon factional ani- !
mositics and intrigues of scheming
o n ;
politicians is neither a statesman nor
a patriot and deseives the contempt j
of an honest people. I shall know
or recognize no faction but shall try
to make an honest, brave, bold fight,
declaring from every stump the eternal
tiuths of Democracy as I understand
them iu the interest of an honest
hearted, God fearing and united
people.
Yours sincerely,
Thomas F. Brantley.

A Backward Spring
BiiDgs Blood Diseases, Nervous
Derangements and Chronic Catarrh.
Never was there a greater demand
for spring medicines?something to
cleanse the blood strengthen the
nerves, or regulate the digestion. Is
there any medicine so good for these
purposes as Pe ru na? Thousands
of doctors, druggists and teus of
thousands of people of all classes
i and vocations have long ago decided
- this question?that Pe ru na has no
equal in these
^ cases. Poor, |
shrunken dys- [
' peptics become v V
; strong, vigorous,
and hearty
, after a fe.v bot- V^jT^
ties of it. Peo- 'lf?w j/j /.
pie who are :
blotched, pirn- \y '$ $$'
pled and sallow
> and sluggish never fail to find a
course of Pe-ru na to clear the skin,
; invigorate the system and enrich the
- blood. Chronic catarrh in all phases
[ and stages, cases that have defied
the best of treatment for many years,
, take a few bottles of Pe ru-na to
their entire relief. Nervousness,
i debility, weakness of both sexes,
sleeplessness, irritability, despondency,
hypochondiia, all these disan
pear when JPe ru na is used according
to directions.
One of the most instructive books
on chronic catarrh ever furnished
free is being sent by the Pe ru na
Drug Manufacturing Company, Columbus,
Ohio. This book is very
instructively illustrated with expensive
drawings, and will be sent free
| to any address.
