Col. D. J. Griffith Ghost n.
Columbia State, 2"?th iust.
Yesterday moiming before the election
for Superintendent of tLe Stale
Peuiteutiary was held the friends of
Senator D J. Giiffi'h claimed that
that gentleman had bixty-six votes
pledged to him, but there were few
who expected to see him elected on
the first ballot.
The result of the election was that
upon the first ballot Colonel Griffith
received seventy-one votes, and before
the vote was declared over a
score of votes were changed from the
other candidates to him and he was
declared elected.
The galleries and the floor of the
hall were crowded with visitors, who
were present to watch the contest
f/-.*. fho -nntif ir?n of finnprin ten dent of
the penitentiary.
Col. Neal was there, looking quite
unwell, and surrounded by a number
of friends. Col. Griffith looked confident,
and his friends were bouyant
with hope.
The prominence of Col. Neal in
affairs political lent peculiar interest
to this race. Although the race was
won partially by CjI. Griffith's popularity,
there is no doubt that the
feeling of politicians toward Col.
Neal had a great deal to do with the
result of the election.
Mr. Stevenson of Chesterfield nominated
Senator Griffith. This was
seconded by Senator Talbird of
Beaufort.
Mr. Thnmerman nominated Iiepre- j
sentative Bell of Aiken. This was
seconded by Senator Sheppard of
Edgefield.
Senator Mayfield nominated Mr.
H H. CrutB of Bamberg, chairman !
of the ways and means committee.
_
This was seconded by Mr. Moss of i
v/iaugguuk^*
Col. W. A Neal was nominated by
Mr. PriDce of Anderson. This was
seconded by Senator Manning of
j Sumter.
Mr. John W. Cullough of Greenville
was nominated by Mr. W. L i
['Miuldin of Greenville. This was ;
seconded by Senator-^. W. Brown. I
The nominations were then closed j
upon motion of Mr. Wyche.
When the roll of the joint assem-'
bly had been called, and each mem-;
ber had voted for the candidate -of'
his choice, it was seen that Senator ;
Griffith was far in the lead. The;
vote wa9 not announced, but the first
roll call resulted as follows: Griffith,
71; Neal, 34: McCullough, 23; Crum,
21: Bell, 4. Total, 153; necessary to
elect, 77. '
Some of the members bad kept ac
count of the vote, and as soon as it
was seen that Senator Griffith need J
ed but 6 votes, Mr. Ilderton started
the break by changing his vote from !
Crum to Griffith. Senator Stanland
changed irom i.>eai 10 vrriimu, mr ;
G. P. Smith from McCullough to |
Griffith, Mr. Sbeppard from Bell to!
Griffith, aod in a few momenta a I
score of others followed their example.
No one candidate was injured I
by this slump, as each lost a number i
of supporters, and when the vote on !
the first ballot wa3 declared, Senator \
Griffith was announced as elected.1
Following was the final result: Grif-1
fitb, 96; Neal, 28; McCullough, 16; j
Crum, 11; Bell, 2. Mr. Crum lost j
more than any other candidate when |
the break to Griffith began.
Following was the vote as first re- i
corded:

Sores ai
It Matters Not How Obstinate,
or What Other
Remedies Have Failed,
Obstinate sores and ulcers, which
refuse to heal under ordinary treatment,
soon become chronic and deepseated,
and lead to' conditions most
serious. They are caused in different
ways, but in every case the blood is
involved, and no amount of local treatment
can have any effect. The poison
must be eliminated from the blood
before a cure can be had.
THROWN FROM A HORSE.
Mr. H. Kuhn, of Marion, Kansas, writes:
"About three years ago my granddaughter, Bertha
Whitwood, was thrown from a horse, receiving
a wound of the scalp. Though under
the treatment of physicians forseveral months,
the wound remained about the same, until it
finally became very angry-looking, and broke
out into a running
sore This soon sn.end

o fully disfiguring her.
?he was then placed unffj
dor the care of the faeulty
of a well-known
JWM^a hos'nitnl. but even the
treatment she received
^SaOv^-1 there failed toarrest the
terrible sore. Reading
' < r*\ 1 /' of the many cures of
blood troubles effected
by S. S. we decided to
try it. and it relieved her promptly. In a few
months she was entirely cured, and scarcely
a mark now remains where the disease held
full sway."'

many wonderful discoveries in medicine,
but none that have accomplished more for ?
humanity than that sterling old household

Legislative Proceedings.
The judiciary committee has up t
for consideration a bill providing for
a system of county courts which may t
cause some discussion. It provides, t
however, to leave the establishment a
of these courts to a vote of the quali- t
tied electors of each couDty. ]
No liquor legislation has yet made c
its appearance. What is to come up t
we are not able to say. The indications
now are that there will be no a
material change in the dispensary r
low nf fhia spn?.irm_
The bill introduced to repeal the t
lien law provides that it shall not go i
into operatiou if passed until nex4
year and there is some talk of put- a
ting it off for two years. So that 8
even if there should be aEy legisla- F
tion on the subject it will not affect c
m ^ for this year. 1
X ig of general interest has 1
been done as yet except passing the
bill extending the time for paying c
taxes to the 28th day of February, 1
which has been ordered enrolled as
an act for ratification. The Legis- 8
lators seem to be taking things easy 1
and deliberate and it is best that
they should for hasty legislation I
sometimes becomes very expensive to J
the taxpayers. Really, while there
are a great many bills introduced 1
there are at present no indications of 8
any very great changes in the laws. ^
Mr. Blease's bill to mike it a misdemeanor
to violate labor contracts J
was killed. *
The bill to elect magistrates and
other county officials by primaries 8
went the way of all flesh.
There was much discussion over 1
the bill to relieve school trustees 1
from road duty, but was killed on its 8
second reading. 8
Mr. Jeremiah Smith's bill to provide
for the renewing of charters of c
ferries which have expired or are *
about to expire, and for granting
charters for ferries not heretofore ^
granted, passed its second reading.
The following rates of toll were 1
fixed: For every passenger, 5 cents; *
for every head of sheep, goats, hogs, c
and other small animals, 5 cents; for *
every horse, male and head cattle,
10 cents; for every passenger with 1
single horse, mule, ox, or other rid

tid Ulcers;
"Some years ago I was shot in the left leg' \
receiving what I considered only a slight
wound. It developed
into a running sore and
gave me a great deal 5
of pain and inconven- IE?
ience. I was treated 1
by many doctors and V?^i
took a number of blood folsj
remedies, but none did Ejj-af- 1
me any good and did
not seem to check the
progress of the sore. I r g?

there is no provision made for

by individuals except the unaninous
consent of both branches of the
jreneral Assembly to introduce a bill

ANTI LYNCH INC, BILL
Mr. Barnwell introduced a bill
which he bopc-s will lessen the number
of Jynchiugs in this State. His
bill to prevent lynchings and punish
lynchers does not propose to change
the act of 1890, which follows the
constitution, but adds certain reine- j
diis thereto. The constitution aud I
the act of 1896 provided for the ic- |
rnoval from office of an i fficer who j
Buffered through his negligence, per- j
mission or connivance, a prisouer to i
be taken fiorn him and lynched. It |
also providtd a remedy against the J
counly for tLe heirs of any person suf- j
ei ing death by reason of 1} nchiug, that j
act, however, did not provide for the 1
case where the piisouer was kilhd j
while still in the custody of the officer, '
through the negligence or connivance
of the officer. The present bill provides
for such a case. Tire bill alco
provides that in any case of lynching,
whether of a piisoner or other pel
sod, where no person is arrested for
such offense, for f?0 days llie governor
shall offer a reward of not less
than ?50 nor more than S."?00 for the
arrest, with proof to convict, of the
lynchers. It also provides for the
employment by the attorney general
of assistant counxl to assist the
prosecuting officer of the State in the
trial of such lynchers, the amount of
the counsel fee to be fixed by the
governor and attorney general not to
exceed SoOO; all the expenses of such
reward and counsel fees to be borne
by the county where the lynching
occurs.

Women Should Know It.
Many women suffer untold agony and
misery because tbe nature of their disease
is not correctly under ttood. They have
been led to believe that womb trouble or
female weakness of some sort is responsible
lor the many ills that beset womankind.
Neuralgia, nervousness, headache, puffy
or dark circles under the eyes, rheumatism,
a dragging pain or dull ache in the back,
weakness or bearing-down sensation, profuse
or scanty supply of urine with strong
odor, frequent desire to pass it with sc tiding
or burning sensation, scdiaenC in it
alter standing in bottle or comm -n glass
for twenty-lour hours, are sigus of kidney
and bladder trouble.
The above symptoms are often attributed
by the patieut herself or by her physician
to lemale weakness or womb trouble.
H nee, so many fail to obtain relief, because
tney are 'treating, not the disease itself.
but a reflection of the primary cause,
which is kidney trouble.
In tact, women as well as men are made
miserable with kidney and bladder trouble
