The Lexington Dispatch I Burned April 25th; rebuilt July 19.1894. G. M. HARMAN. Editor and Publisher. LEXINGTON. S. C\. "WSTNESDAY. DECEMBER 20. 1899. BARN WELL FOR CONGRESS. We are glad to notice that s movement is on foot with a view of having the First Congressional District represented on the fiwof Congress by a distinguished and brilliant son of Charleston. A. moments renection will convince any reasonable person of the justness and fairness of Charleston's claim to ba represented in the national halls of legislation by one who is directly interested in all projects looking to the material wellfare and prosperity of that city; one who is in close touch and intimately associated with her people, both in their social and business relations. Charleston is the wealthiest city in the State, its population is tne largest and its business connection with that of the interior is so intimate and dovetailed that any calamity or catastrophe that might overtake her com mercial and financial institutions would be a calamity and a catastrophe that would be felt in the remotest corner of the State?indeed she is the center of the wealth and business of the State. Added to these undeniable truths she is about half way between Port R >yal and Georgetown making Charleston a convenient place for the residence of the Con gressman. Having demonstrated Charleston's right tonamejfhe Congressman, what is more proper than she should select from among her many worthy sons, Mr. Joseph W. Barnwell as the one into whose keeping to entrust her interest. He has been tried under many circumstances and it is yet to be recorded where he has failed in bis duty as he conceived it to be to his State and city. With abiUy marked with bnli mcy, souLd judgment and profound statesmanship that carried conviction and enabled him to break down all opposition, he served his State and city for years in 1Am/Nw V\rn rvrtk aP O Q1"q1 A O sembly and is now faithfully serving his people in the upper bfanch of * that body where he has added new laurels to his fame as a statesman, an orator and a thinker He was a member of the last constitution convention and the prints of his individuality is left upon our present organic law. All of bis cffjrts were directed toward those measures calling for the exercise of a trained mind in statecraft. His conservatism had a wholesome effect in shaping the work of the conventional and the State is largely indebted to him for many important acts of legislation. His elevation to the halls of Congress will be a lucky stroke of policy that will be beneficial not only to the First District, but to the entire State. The Stock Exchange of New York has been in a state of the wildest excitement over a great depreciation in securities, aud loans beiDg difficult to negotiate a panic ensued. The bottom has been reached, however, as the following telegram received by the Dispatch shows: Special to the Dispatch ? New York, December 19, 4:39 p. M.?Stock market panic adverse. Expected cotton today, but worse seems over. "Understand action will be taken by the Secretary or Treasurer and New York Clearing House that will avert trouble tomorrow. Market seems to have seen bottom today. Price & McCormick. Governor McSweeney has arranged to borrow $3,0G0 for the State Board of Health with which to fight the smallpox, until the General Assembly takes up the matter. Along this line the authorities of the different municipalities and the various local boards of health can render valuable assistance in stamping out the dreaded and loathsome disease by enforcing sanitary laws and isolating suspected persons and confining tramps and other wandering persons who come from infected places. Senator Tillman has had passed in the Senate a resolution calling upon the Secretary of War to submit a ourreu onrl pntimftte of COSst for the ' "J ? improvement of the Great Pee Dee liver between Cheraw and the WilmingtoD, Columbia and Augusta railroad in this State. Gen. Lawton, who had marched by night from MaDila to drive Gen. Gerooimo from a strong position at San Mateo, was shot and killed while walking along the firing line by a Filipino sharp shooter. He is the first American General killed in Luzon or Cuba. A disastrous fire occurred at Florence, in this State, yesterday morning, in which the eDtire business section was burned, including tbe city ha'1, br-tel and opera house, j The Sta'e officers are busy at j woik making up their annual report to be submitted to the General As sembly at its approaching session. The Euglish are still meeting with reverses iu S ?uth Africa, and it now looks as if the Boers will bemc.' s ful in th'ir 6gbt for in<b pendence. Captain G VV. Shell, the leader of the Reform movement in 1890 and the reputed author of the now historical manifesto, died suddenly at his home in Lturens county last week. His funeral was largely attended by h;.3 fellow citizens. Senator Tillman has been added to the Senate committee on appropriations. This is the most important committee of that body and only Senators of recognized ability earned Hv Inner arp r>l toed UDOO this "J '^"O r ? r com ni it tee. Senator Tillman has not completed his first term and this appointment is a double compliment. Senator McLaurin is on that of man ufactures?another important committee. " VJU; ivu aiv ncci \ If you were in prison and a \ good spirit suddenly evened \ the door and said " Go: You are free!" you wouldn't stop to ask whether the key that opened the door was the regulation pattern or not. If it opened the door, that is enough. Thousands of women who are sick and suffering might speedily be made strong and well again if it was not for an unreasonable prejudice against any but so-called "regulation" methods. "Three years ago I was almost gone with womb trouble." says Mrs. Jennie J. Jackson, of Fergusson's Wharf. Isle of Wight Co.. Va., in a letter to Dr. R V. Pierce, of Buffalo. N. Y. " I tried many different medicines and got no better until I tried Dr. Pierce's medicines. The first bottle ga;*e me ease. I have taken six bottles and I feel as well as ever in my life. " My doctor did not have any faith in ' patent medicines' but he says ' something has done you good.' I know if I had not taken Dr. Pierce's medicine I could not have lived long as I was nothing but a skeleton. I was so thin in flesh that it hurt rae to lie down. Now I am well, and can work hard all day and do as much walking as I ever did. and sleep well all night. I can never lie thankful enough for the good Dr. Pierce's medicines did me." Dr. Pierce is a regular graduated and educated physician. He has had a more, practical life-long experience with all forms of women's diseases than any other doctor in this country. His '"Favorite Prescription" for female complaints is the most marvelously effective remedy for this purpose in the world. Suffering women need not hesitate to write to him. All letters are held sacredly confidential and free advice will be scut by mail in plain sealed envelope. Constipation is a little illness that if neglected builds a big one. Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets cure constipation. ? " mm JusesviUe's enterprise. Tbe business men of Leesville has determined to organize a company for the purpose of manufacturing cotton goods at that place. We understand that a large amount of the stock has been already taken and a committee has visited this place and Columbia to seek information as to the best machinery to purchase and other details connected with the business. There is no reason why a factory at that place should not be a success as that place contains people of ex cellent business judgment, who are enterprising and progressive and who have an abiding faith in the future of their town. Having once made up their mind to accomplish a thing they never cease their efforts until it is done. We congratulate the town on its bright outlook and predict that the day is not far off when the hum of shuttles and looms will be heard there. Death of Mr. Lee Corley. 3ir L?e Corley, son of Reuben Corley, died at the home of his parents in the Providence section last Saturday night, after a brief illness with typhoid pneumonia. A few days previous he reached his 22nd year of age, and life for him was full of bright promises of usefulness and happiness. Being of a robust build and the picture of health and strong young manHcod none of his friends realized that cruel and fell disease had laid its hands upou his energy and vitality and would claim him as a I'ictim of the grave. But the summons had gone forth and ail that remains mortal of the noble young man, now quietly sleep in the gravejard at Providence, where they were buried in the presence of a large congregation of sorrowing relatives and friends. MARRIED. At the residence of the bride's father, J. W. Bouknight, Irmo, S. C, on December 13, 1S99, Mr. Frank Cjogler and Miss Carrie Bouknigbt were united in marriage. Ilrvs. J. D. Deal and J. N. Wright, officiating. Mr. LeeHarman and Miss Johanna Snelgrove, of Lexington, S. C., were united in marriage, on November 29th, 1899, at the Lutheran parsonage by the Rev. J. G Graichen.
