The Lexington Dispatch. Wednesday, April 9, 1902. How to Win. Newberry Observer. How is tha Democratic party to wia in the next campaign? That is the question. It is admitted on all sides that the party has splendid fighting ground, and that what is most Deeded is a broad and aggressive and American policy. The rank and file of the people are fast coming to the conclusion that dead issues are really dead and that if the party is to succeed it must be on a new alignment. Someone expressed it this way recently: "Mr. Bryan cannot expect the Democratic party to stay out in the cold always just for the sake of bis company." Th#* hifalntin. sublimated, sophomoric conception cf '"Democratic principles" has got to give place to the more practical spirit of the age. What Jefferson and Jackson thought and said a hundred years ago has nothing to do with present issues. The issues they contended for have been settled long age?they are dead, and ought to be buried. We must act in the living present. ! We must face the issues before us today and deal directly with them?not ** 1 ^ -3?i ^ av\ irom iiit' biauupuiiit ui iuouauic imposition to the administration or to the Republican party, but according to the rules of common sense and the dictates of the highest patriotism. A policy is not obliged to be wrong simply because the Republican party endorses it; and the Democratic party has suffered by its policy of opposition for opposition's sake. . Take the expansion policy for instance. The great mass of the citizenship of the country Dorth and south endorse the action of the government in freeing I Cuba, in acquiring the Philippines j and in saying the flag of our country shall not go down in the dust to pacify a few, or many, Philippine insurgents, who in a spirit of basest ingratitude are fighting against their deliverers. Democrats in and oat of Congress make a grave mistake in condemning the Philippine policy of the government and thus giving aid and comfort to the government's enemies. It is no kindness to the Fillipinos either to mislead them with tbe idea that the Democratic party may come into power and immediately give them "freedom"?which to them means the right to do as they please without regard to law or the rights of others. If the Democratic party wArfl to win thev would have to con tinue tbs policy of subjugation until j tbe Fillipino insurgents should lay down their arms. Their duty to the great body of islands would require it. The sooner tbe Democrats drop their cry of "imperialism" tbe better for them. Another cry tbey should drop is that of free silver, for the country has shown unmistakably in two cam- j paigns that they do not want free silver. It is a dead issue. A real live issue is tariff reform. And one good live issue in a cam- | paign is worth a dozen dead ones. It | was on that issue that Grover Cleve- j lnr?/1 -wrm ir> 1 Rfi-t flrirl 1.902. Another issue is the control of the trusts. That also is alive issue, and if properly handled would tell effectively in a campaign; but the danger | would be. if not judiciously handled, it might degenerate into a war against i capital of every description. Here , is one of the evils that has come from ! a coalition of ihe Democracy with the Populist and other ''calamity howlers" of the northwest. Varieties of Corn. The Carolina Spartan. Men who fail in makiEg corn are always seeking new seed. They wish something that will muitiplv in field or crib like the widow's oil. There is however a difference in seedDo not send out of your latitude for seed. Do not be deceived by pictures of ears that will sneii out a nan pec*;. If you have a neighbor that raises an abundance of corn for his own use and always has some to sell, it would be safe to get his seed corn. For early field corn the Dent varieties, yellow or white, and the Hickory King are good. They mature about thirty days before the -ordinary field 1 corn. It is always well to try a lot in one of these varieties. Perhaps the best corn for the average farmer is the Baldwin if pure seed can he secured. This fills well at both euds, ! the grain is white and 70 pounds in j the ear will shell GO to G2 pounds. That will often give two ears to the stalk on good land with reaconable distance. There are two or three prolific varieties, making two or three pars to the stalk. Some farmers sue ceed admirably with these. As to the value of the white and yellow varieties chemists soy there is no apj preciable difference. The general | belief is that the yellow is better as food for stock. The chemists say it is not. If you buy seed corn do not go far from home to get it. If you do, get from that section similar in soil and climate to your own. If one expects a large yield, corn ?' i i # i\. j.T :L must De cultivated irom me urne jo is a few inches high. It will not wait like cotton. Clean and frequent cultivation is required to make it do its best. The uplands of South Carolina can be brought up to 30 bushels of corn and 5 to 10 bushels of peas to the acre. * A Valuable Medicine For Coughs and Colds in Children. "I have not the slightest hesitancy in recommending Chamberlain's Cough Remedy to ail who are suffering from coughs colds,*' says Chas. M. Cramer, E?q., a well known watch maker, o? (JolomDo, ueyion. "it Das been some two years since the city dispensary first called my attention to this valuable medicine and I have j repeatedly used it and it has always been beneficial. It has cured me quickly of all chest colds. Ic is especially effective for children and seldom takes more than one bottle to cure them of horseness.
