S. P. STRIIH.INO. Fruit n Perfect Toort. Some people are afraid to cat fl int, thinking that fruit andjdiarrhoca arc always associated, when, if they understood thc true causo of thc di arrhoea, they would know it was caused by eating meat. In hot weather meat putrilics very quickly, and during this process alkaloids are formed which nro very poisonous, acting ns emetics and purgatives. "Tis true that fruit eaton green or be tween meals will interfere with di gestion and cnttsc bowel troubles; hilt usc perfectly ripe fruit nt meal time, and only beneficial results will follow. Acids prevent calccrons degenera tions, keeping thc bones clastic, ns well as preventing thc accumulation of earthly matters. This is because of the solvent power of the acids; but manufactured acids aro not har ml o: ts, ns those which nature lins prepared for us in various kinds of fruit. Fruit is a perfect food wnon fully ripe, but if it were in daily usc from youth to ago there would bc less gout, gallstone and stone in the bladder. Stewed tipples, pears and plums mc favorite articles of diet. For breakfast or luncheon, in thc dining room or nursery, Ibero aro few table dishes moro wholesomo and delicious than stewed fruit served up with cream or custard. There nro many persons, however, who can not eat it on account either of the acidity of the fruit or tho ex cess of sugar necessary to make it pal atablo. Sugar does not, of course, counteract acidity, lt only disguises it, and its uso in largo quantities is calculated to retard digestion. Thc housewife may therefore bc grateful for the reminder that a pinch, n very sundi pinch, of oarbonatc soda, sprinkled over the fruit previously to cooking, will savo sugar, and will render tho dish at once more pala table and more wholesome-Medical Classics, Federal Election ?Ul. WASIIINOTON, Miuc.lt 15.-Rep resentative Henry ?Cabot Lodge, of Massachusetts, Cj&?rmnn of tho House committee lp tho election of President and V?o-President sud Representatives j&Congrcss to-day introduced a bill tyfregulnto oleotions of llepresontative?n Congress. Mr. Lodgo says tho bat is vory carefully drawn after consolation with many peiooiiB. It is a ??aiuminous bill of twonty-ono section*. It provides tnt, whonevor 600 persons, voters nnff residents in any Congressional Dist ict of tho United States, not less aban two months prior to tho next flection of Repre sentatives, petitiofl thc Judge of the District Court to placo tho next Congpcssionul election in s:tid dis trict under tho provisions of this Act, it shall bo tho duty of such Judge to announce that the next Congressional election in said dis trict will bo held under thc pro vision of this Act. The Judge shall Upon appoint such olliccrs of election and registration and make such other provision for the conduct of tho Congressional election as are hereafter provided. There aro to bc two registers of voters for each voting precinct, one of whom shall be a member of thc party which at tho next preceding Presidential election polled tho high est number of votes, and ono a mem ber of tho party winch polled thc next highest number of votes. These registers nrc to prepare a prelimi nary list of tho voters of their pre cinct, wind) shall be posted publicly, and give notico that they will meet at specified times and places to reg ister voters. Within three days after thc posting of lists thc regis ters shall begin to hold meetings, which shall be public, to register all duly qualified voters who may come before them and who are not already registered. Registration shall coasc not less than ten days before elec tion. Thc second list of voters shall then bo published, but no names shall be added sifter tho closo of registration, and no names shall ito stricken off except on proof of death or removal from the Congres sional District. It shall bc tho duty of tito r?gis tort; on election day to present at the polling place and furnish ono copy of thc amended list to tho in spectors for usc at tito ballot box. They shall also bring another list, upon which th ny shall check off the name of each voter who seeks admittance within the rail in order to vote; and no ono shall bc admit ted within tito rail to voto unless his name appears on thc registered list, nor until his name has been called and checked off thc list by Ute reg isters. There shall bc provided for each voting place throe sets of such bal lots, each of not less than 100 for every fifty and fraction of 50 regis tered male voters therein, and it shall bc thc duty of registers of the voters in each precinct to certify to thc Clerk of the District ' Court, fourteen days previous to such elec tion, thc number of male registered voters in such voting precinct. Provision is also made for the print ing and distribution of instructions for tho guidance of voters as to obtaining ballots, manner of marking them, <fcc. As to thc milliner of voling, it is provided that the inspectors (pro vision for which is made) and regis ters in each voting precinct shall designate and appoint, and if they fail to at least five days before the election, then thc Judge of thc Dis trict Court shall designate and ap point a polling place therein, at a convenient place, and shall cause lo be provided a sufficient number of voting shelves or compartments at or in which voters may conven iently mark their ballots, so that in tlio marking they may bo screened from thc observation of others; and a guard rail shall bc so constructed and placed that only such persons as aro inside of it can approach within twenty feet of the ballot boxes and of such shelves or compartments. It is further provided that all bal lots cast at an election for Repre sentatives in Congress held under tho provisions of this Act after thc 1st dav of November, 1890, shall bo printed and distributed nt public expense. livery ballot thus printed sha!', contain tho naines, tho resi dences, and thc party or political designation of all candidates whose nominations have bcon duly made and not Withdrawn, ?nd shrill ooh* I tain no other names. Tho names of candidates shall bo arranged under tho designation of tho oflico in niphnbotionl order. There shall bo left at the end of tho list of candi dates a blank space, in which tho voter may insert tho name of any person not printed on tho ballot for whom ho desires to voto. Tho bal lots shall bo so printed as to givo to each voter a clear opportunity to dosignato by a cross mark (X) in a sufficient margin nt tho right of the name of each candidato hi? choice of candidates. * Tho ballot shall bo of white papor of tho woight ordinarily used in printing, and not moro than eight nor less than six. inches wide, nor more than ten nor less than eight inches long, and before distribution tho ballots shall be so folded in marked creases that their width and longht when folded shall be one-half thc width and length herein specified. On tho back and outside, when folded, shall be printed : "Ollicial ballot for Representative in Con gress," followed by the designation of the polling place for which thc ballot is proposed) the dato of elec tion and a fae simile of the sigui ture of the Clerk of the District who has caused the ballot to bo printed. All ballots when printed shall be folded as hereinbeforo pro vided, and fastened together in such manne)1 that each ballot may bo de latched and removed separately. A record of tho number of hallett printed and furnished to each poll ing place shall be kept by the Clcrle of the District Court.

They are to bo paid on eortilioato of the Clerk of tho Court, who is to pay tho expense of printing ballots, and for those purposes thc bill carries an appro priation of *f)00,000. Tho Position of tho Press. It is pleasant to lind that the posi tion of the Greenville Daily News in tho matter of nominations ct tho March convention is heartily sus tained by such consistent and earnest friends of the Farmers' Movomont as the Newberry Observer, the Oraugeburg Times-Democrat and the KHOWICK CouiiiKK. In fact the only newspapers of position and im portance sustaining March nomina tions aro the Laurensvillo Herald and tho Greenville Enterprise and Mountaineer. Even tho Edgefield panoro, printed in Mr. Tillman's own county, are non-committal; lt will bo well 'for the farmers to consider whether there is not some sound and honest reason why these newspapers which have worked with them so faithfully now urge them to call a halt and decline to do the bid ding of the leaders. Nobody can doubt the loyalty of these newspapers to thc cause. They were with it when it was w'cak and unpopular: their earnest advocacy did much to give it strength. They have asked nothing from it. Thoy are above tho suspicion of selling out if thoro was anybody to buy them. Their editors are asking no otliees of anybody and arc not in politics. Thc Laurensvillo Herald is a good and ably edited newspaper and its editors arc justly respected and trusted by everybody; but it must bo remembered that thc Herald is printed at the headquarters of the Shcll-Tillman wing of tho party and is peculiarly exposed to thc influence of that wing. As for our esteemed local contemporary, it has not been, so far ns wc aro informed, remark ably active or outspoken in its advo cacy of tho Farmers' Movement or any other cause except, to do it ex act justice, that of prohibition. When thc Observer, the KKOWKK Comuna, tho Oraugeburg Times Democrat and other newspapers of their kind, having no interests but thoso of thc pooplo, subject to no in lluence but that of thc people, with out axes to grind or favorites to boost, unite in thc declaration that nominations in March will be a dis astrous error, we think they are en titled to have their opinions con sidered as those of honest and dis interested friends who have studied the situation carefully, who see both sides and who are reasoning coolly and without prejudice. On thc other hand it is fair that the conditions, motives and purposes of those on tho other side of the question should be considered and weighed along with what they- have to say in favor of nominations in March. How many of those who are urging that action hnvo been or aro trying to bo for tho first time or for tho manyeth timo ofllco holders? How many of them have special friends candidates for high oflices? How many of them are themselves declared candidates for places ? Tho people havo tho right to on quiro into nnd consider these mat ters without assailing the good faith or patriotism of anybody. They have tiie right to learn for themslves how far judgment may bo governed by intorc.it, consciously or uncon sciously, boforo accepting that judgment for thoir guidance It is tobo remembered that tho only reason given for tho March nomi nations, so far as wo havo seen, is that tho farmors lost a victory in 1880 because thoy went to tho State Democratic Convention unprepared, without a slato and without definite candidates. Yet tho fact is that thoro was a slato propared by R. R. Tillman, of Edgofiold, with John C. KEOWEE COURIER, [WKKKIJY,] -I'.s i A :;;,;;;?;;;w *r Old Pickens in 1840, -MOVKl) TO- < Walhalla in 1868.

At torney General Earlo was nominated by tho same clement representing thc same principles. Tboro was no lino drawn in tho contost for tho other Stnto oflicos. In tho last State Convention in 1888, there was no light simply bo oauso it was understood and genorally agreed upon in nd vaneo that there should not be"* and that tho old ticket should be re-nominated in ao- ... cordanco with tho general custom of < giving four years terms. The Fanners' Movement had the majority in tho, State Democratic Convention in 188G and split on Mr. Tillman's slate; it had thc majority in 1888 and accepted tho situation;' it will have thu majority in 1890 and can nominate its candidates in caucus and elect them in convention after a full and fair canvass unless a prema turely born slate of Mr. Tillman's is again thrust in to in.uko division and work defeat. Thc newspapers that have known, watched and worked in tho politics of this State know those things; and in the light of pnst experience and tho present situation unite in counselling tho {armors if they intend to win '* to ref uso to follow Mr. Tillman or his friends in thoir bond long haste--Greenville News. Hcpiunto Hallway Accommodations. We don't know what the Republi cans will do with the Supremo Court of the United States. For many years that body bas been regarded as a safe Republican body to bo de pended on in contingencies, but, somehow or other, it has failed, ox copt, possibly in ono or two unim portant instances to cater to tho views of the partisans. That tribu nal has practically taken tho sting out of thc war amendments to tht Constitution, and has thus sweet ened, ns it were, thc gall of bitter- j ness and unloosed thc bonds of ini quity with which the Republicans of Thaddeus Stevena's day had boped to distress the white peoplo of tho South. Tlio Court has made another de cision that will not givo tho partisan Republicans pleasure. Tho decision was rendered" in tho case of tho Louisville, New Orleans and Texas Railroad Company vs. thc State of Mississippi. The Mississippi Logisla turc bad passed a law compelling railroads doing business in that State to provide separate car accomoda tions for whito and negro passengers. Thc Supreme Court of Mississippi decided that the law was constitu tional, and tho road carried tho caso to the Supreme Court of the United States in tho hope that tho higher Court would reverse tho decision of the Mississippi tribunal. This hope was not realized, for thc Supremo Court has decided that there was no error in tho ruling be low, and that ruling is affirmed. Tho railroads operating in Mississippi will therefore be compelled under the law to pr?vido separate and equal accommodations for white and negro passengers. This will not bo at all pleasing to tho Republicans of tho Chandler stripe, or to tho real loaders of that party. The Republicans know that any other provision would load to collisions botweon tho whites and blacks, and it is to tho intorest of thoir party that tho conditions lead ing to theso collisions should bo care fully nursed and promoted.-Atlanta Constitution.
