The Lexington Dispatch Burned April 25th; rebuilt July 19, 1894. G. M. HARMAN. Editor and Publisher. LEXINGTON. S. C., WFDNESDAY, JULY 25, 1900. We notice from our exchanges that noorir t-vorv p.nnntv in the State AH Utun; ^ j ^ the people have demanded that the candidates for Senator and Members of the House of Representatives give their views on the issues before the people over their own signature in the county papers and at the campaign meetings. This is a capital idea and one that should be adopted ii this county. It is no use to say that there are no issues in this campaign when the fact stares us squarely in the face that there are grave ones confronting us which calls for settlement by the people through the ballot at the polls. It is to be presumed that each of the candidates asking the suffrage of the people have decided convictions on the dispensary and other measures engaging public attention, otherwise they wnnirl ho nnfit. tn renresent the neo pie in the General Assembly, and the voters have a right to know how the candidates stand on these matters. Let there be no wriggling, no dodging or evadiDg the issues, but face the music like a man and clearly and unequivocally state your position. How standest thou, brother? Reports received from Havana, state that yellow fever has broken out in the barracks of the Seventh United States cavalry and the First United States infantry. St ven deaths have occurred and eleven cases are now under treatment. The camp has been moved three miles into the country and quarantine will be strictly enforced. Ex President Harrison expresses the opinion that the Democratic party's chance for victory now ie better than it was in 1896, and that it has been helped by the blunders of the McKinley administration There are a great many other people of the same opinion. Being shot isn't a very Dice thirg at any time, but it must be particularly annoying to English and G rman soldiers in China to be shot down with English and German guns and ammunition, remarks the Columbia Evening Record. One of the American officers in China says that the fighting in Cuba and the Philippines was a base ball game compared to the racket in China, and it looks about that way, says an exchange. Diplomats are inclined to think the invasion of Siberia by Chinese has been brought about through Russian intrigue for the purpose of giving the Czar an advantage over other powers. "Ain't it a pretty spectacle to see fellers drunk on blind tiger liquor hollering for a prohibition candidate." ?G. Walt Whitman, candidate for Governor, at4he Camden meeting. The Boers are still figktiDg for their independence. They are giving Lord Roberts considerable trouble and are annoying the British army. "I will avenge every drop of German blood that has been spilled," says Emperor William of Germany speaking of the Chinese insurrection. The government's holdings of gold reached the highest point in its history on the 23 d, amounting to $427,498,482. Swansea Doings. To the Editor of the Dispatch: The rainy days aDd the summer heat for several days following has badly injured our corn crops. Corn and cotton this season has been hard to tend and General Green has made many a farmer look green while he felt blue. Last week a collision occurred a mile and a half below Swansea and three freight cars loaded with melons were crushed and one badly injured. The trains were both going north nr,a Vi<art stnrvnpd and the other failed to get notice in time. It was in a few yards of the terriable wreck three years ago. The Lfant child of Mfjor Harley died last Saturday and was laid to rest in the ancestral Strickland grave yard on Monday. It was only seven months old when gathered for the celestial mansion. The same hands that brought bereavment to one home gave joy and gladness to another near by and C. B. Dowling now r( j )ices to see his wife's image in the innocent face of a second child. But the first baby boy, and its mother, like Elizabeth of old, was much troubled about a name for her ? A c-tvnn rra fKio 11 L*o YTCltlf B'JU , (tUU U-JVM OlIOLgC IUV >IBV that his name shall be John Decani. DuriDg one of the warm evenings, the young folks gathered into the Dew commodious furniture store of East & Bro, which was about imibhed and had a hou&e warming. They told love yarns, and played steal partners at length and the boys sweated and the girls perspired. The young people get the warming and the house kept cool. The Kev. J. E. Duren from Columbia is assisting pastor James Sanford with a meeting at the Sardis Baptist church. Parson Duren is an earnest, enthusiastic preacher 01 lighteousnese, and the congregations have been large and well paid in spiritual truth. He left on Friday, the 20tb, and Henry M. Fallaw will assist till its close. Henry is preaching to those who have known him from childhood and the life he has lived is very effective in assisting to impress his congregations with the truth of the new life in Christ Jesus. Haskell Brooker, since his graduation in June, has been employed by the patrons and trustees of the A'hens school about two miles from Swansea. It is near his home and is another introduction to his worth and merit. Mr. "W. D. Hill's summer school closed here last week and be has returned to bis school about fivo miles west of Swansea, where he taught #%% % * ? i t . i TL. till trie ecnooi enaea in Apm. mt teachers and patroDs were then sc , pleased with Mr. Hill's success that his services were solicited and thej lefused to consent to allow him tc teach elsewhere and on Monday 16th he resumed his school there with a ? bright success. The patrons al Swansea were pleased acd gratifiec , with the progress of their childrer i during his short term and they pari i with him reluctantly. - Dr. A. C. Langford of Prosperity i is spending a few days with hi? > children here on his way to Bamberg > to visit others of his family. 1 On Sunday night of 8:h last, Rjv ( W. C. Gleaton, the Methodist min ister, filled the pulpit in the Baptisl church for Rev. T. F. Rivers whc 1 was away preaching. He made f ! theme of the scorner and his examph 1 which was a very earnest and prac 1 tical presentation of the Psalmist'i 1 severe rebuke to those who fill th< sect of the scorner and his effort was well received by the audience. It has leaked out that one of ou] boy8 received rough treatment at th< ' hanas of a certain girl's father. H< ' . was repeatedly asked to keep hii distance but a few nights ago, it ii ' said, he waylaid the wagon carrying 1 the family and crept into the reai end and began joyfully to chat, think ing the old man did not hear an( would not care on way "tomeetin'" Hold on my pod, was quickly followed ' by a stand still and the old mai made his way back, taking him b] the back of the neck, he rushed him quickly to the back of the wagon, and as the kicking end of hi9 No. ter brogan reached the point of its dis tination, the youngster was liftec high and over into the bushes b} the road side he came down "creshow" and he was there left by himself tc eDjoy the lonely solitude of his quiet ness by the light of the sweet silver} moon. The crack of the whip was notice to the team to move onward and nothing broke the silence of the occasion but a voice from the am bush, "I am not bad off to ride in your cussed ole wagon nohow, ] can get my own conveyance if you just know it." Like China, Swansea too has bei boxers. They are in Lexington county numerous and in South Carolina a great multitude. Whoever closes bis eyes to the progress and march of civilization anywhere is a genuine boxer either here or in China. The boxers in China are holdiDg on to the old Asiatic stagnation and oppose all who desire to improve and introduce our civiliza tion iDto that belated and beleag ured land and are striving to oppose progress by force and even have the prince and rulers on their side There are those in our enlightened land who are slow to catch the inspiration of Anglo Saxon supremacy and have many high in authority on their side. The boxers here and in China have but one common doom and their blasted hopes will fill one yawning grave and their ashes rest in common dust. Spectator. July 20?h.

Continued from First Puge. BRA VK BEX. Senator B. li. Tillinan was receiv- , ed with applause. He had always received the support of this county. He wanted the people to see how fat 1 T\ > f . ne is getting, i'eopie grow iat on abuse and pap. He bad worked for every cent be gets. , From some words uttered here to( day, some might be led to think that be is meddling. That old gag of ^ coat-tail swinging has been heard again. He had never posed as a boss He had always led the people in the way they wanted to go. CjI. Hoyt is an honorable man, who bears upon his person the scars of battle. But he ought not to obj< ct to Tillmat/s differing with him on public issues. Col. Iloyt had said something about Tillman protesting against Senator Hampton meddling with the local race, and the inference is that Tillman is now meddling. Hampton was not at that time a candidate. Tillman is now a candidate. He had not taken up the cudgels for anyone ! man, and as a candidate he has the 1 right to be heard. He renewed his protest against the time limit being ' j CI11 UOWU. Col. Hoyt in his address in Cjlurn' bia at the prohibition convention 1 characterized the dispensary administration as that of a scalawag, and ^ a little short of radicalism. Tillman 1 claimed the right to defend his adt ministration which was thus attacked. ''Furthermore, it is my baby." ' Should he remain quiet under these 5 circumstances? ' He is going to talk, and anybody who doesn't like it can lump it. He then went into a discussion of the dispensary versus prohibition. ^ His interest would be to keep hi3 J mouth shut. He would take orders * from the people,, but not from the 3 newspapers or an) body else. People love liquor. If they are 5 stopped from buyiDg it legally they 3 will lie to get it. He recognizes the 5 evils of whiskey, but people will have it. It has been recognized for time r out of mind that there is the right ' to regulate and to police its sales. 3 He called attention to the good fea5 tures of the dispensary. If you forbid people to drink they will drink * aDyhow. Why not try prohibition? Because it has been pointed out that it will take force to enforce it, and j the people will not submit to a direct tax for its enforcement. The army of ministers wanting 1 prohibition marches side by side 7 with the high license men. Do you 1 want barrooms? If you do, repeal ' the dispensary law. The revenue 1 will then be lost?nothing to compensate for it?and just as much drunkenness as now. There will be [ a still up every spring branch. It has been ten years since Till) . man spote at .uariiDgton, out ne was received today as then. * ^ + ' ECZEMA, ITCHING HUMORS, PIM1 PLES?CURED BY B. B.

The idea is to have a Christun.s exercise and a Sunday school Re union combined. The committee oa arranging and deciding this matter spoke of tning to get President Geo. B. Cromer, of Newberrj College, to deliver an address at these exercises. Messrs. Quinton and Talley Iveisler speak of intering Lenoir College at the opening of her next session. We extend to them our sympathy in deciding this great step in life, for we have experienced this ''Halting between two opinions." Dr. J. P.
