Whatever difference there may
be upon the advisability of smoking
for men, there is none as to its per
nicious effect upon boys. It effects
the action of the heart and reduces
thc capacity of tho 'nings. Young'
e.en wini are being trained for ath
letics are not permitted to smoke by
their trainers, because, as they say,
..It is Lad for the wind." The ar
gument that will appeal most forci

that youthful smokers are shor'.or
and weigh less than their comrades

particularly injurious. Nicotine,
thc active principle of tobacco, is
saul by chemists to bc, next to prus

a very small quantity of it without

National Mlianco Demands.
The annual convention of the Na
tional Farmers' Alliance was held
in Columbia a few days ago. The
attendance was small and thc pro
ceedings in detail were devoid of
general interest. Mr. J. C. Welhorn
was re elected president. In his
annual address ho suggested that
the following demands bo urged
upon Congress :
1st. Vreo delivery of mail in the
rural districts, and that the service
he placed on the same permanent
footing as the delivery of mails in
the cities, and that the appropriation
therefor be co m in en sn ra to with the
benefits and dem and s for the service.
'Jd. Providing for postal savings
banks.
'Jd. Submit an amendment to the
constitution providing for the elec
tion of United Slates Senators by
direct vote of the people.
4th. Knacting pure focal laws.
f>th. Providing for the extension
of the markets for farm products,
making it the duty cd United Stales
consuls lo aid in the extension of
markets for farm products as for
manufactured articles.
Otb. The enactment of an anti
trust law, clearly defining what acts
on thc part of any corporation would
be against puhlie policy.
7th. Tin; speedy construction of
inc Niearangiia canal by the United
States.
ls il Constitutional ?
Coi.r.M in A, S. C., Februiry 21.-Il
has been about decided by the
Attorney General and Senator
.Mower, both of whom arc* members
of the commission and both of whom
believe it unconstitutional to use thc
sinking fund for the purpose of com
pleting tho Slate House, that a test
case shall ho brought before the
Supreme Court. This will he a
"friendly" suit and it is expected
thal thc court will render an imme
diate decision, l?oth of the gentle
men arc heartily in favor of complet
ing thc building as are all of die
members of the commission, but it is
thought best for every one concerned
that the court shall give some defi
nite opinion on the question. The
Sinking c und CvOinroissiou will meet
during thc fi rs t week of March and
the test casi will be instituted soon
thereafter.

Col. James L. Orr.
Tho Charloslou correspondent of the
New York Commercial printed the fol
lowing thc; other day, which will be of
interest to til O many friends of Col.
James [,. Orrin this city ami elsewhere:
"One of tko most successful cotton
mill presidents in .South Carolina,among
the newcomers at least, is Col. .lames I..
Orr, President of thc Piedmont Manu
facturing Company, of Piedmont. A few
years ago Col, Orr know absolutely noth
ing about thc; management of a cotton
manufacturing concern, ila was ii law
yer and ono of the most prominent mout
hers of thc liar in South Carolina. Ile
is thc- son of the, la to ( io vernor ( ?rr, Otico
minister to Kassia. Ile was a member of
thc State L?gislature in 1870 and otto of
tho members of tho memorable 'Wallace
Moase,' thc faction which hold out
against the 'carpet-baggers.' With two
fellow ineinhcrs he smashed in the door
of the legislativ e ball, then guarded by
bayonets, and allowed his party to rash
ia and lake possession. Col. Orr was
urged to make tho race for Covcrnoi, bul
would noi oem sent. When Col. II. I'.
Hammett, President ol' I he Piedmont
Mills, died a few years ago, thc position
was offered to Col. Orr, who is his neil
in law, and after much persuasion he re
linquished Iiis profession and became
pre.ideal, ruder his management the
capacity ol' tho mill has been almost
d.uihhl and the stock is selling Itigbei
now than ever before. Piedmont is now
ie of tim largest . ul most, iiilliienlia)
mills in Hie South am thc shipment of
goods lo ellina alone is a considerable
item."

Sensible and Conservativo.
Capt. Chas. Petty, tho able editor
of tho Carolina Spartan, published
at oparlauburg, rocently printed the
following editorial in bin paper :
Tho Oraogcburg Times and Demo
crat severely oousures Senator Mo
Laurin beoause "ho seems to have a
strong pull with Dollar Mark Hannn,
ami as a natural consequence, ito ?8
in high favor with President Molvill
ley, who is owned body and soul by
thc great hood 1er." Thc Democrat
is also soruly grieved because Hov.
A. J. S. Thomas, editor of the Bap
tist Courier, received the appoint
ment of census supervisor for this
district. His only objection to Mr.
Thomas was that Sonator McLaurin
favored Iiis appointment. The edi
tor thus CIOSCB : "Ile isa traitor to
his people who honored him with a
seat in thc United States Senate.
Hut the day of reckoning is coming."
Such unwarranted statements SB
tho above tend to m ak o disloyal citi
zens. Tho teaching of such doc
trines give risc to moro lawlessness
and riots in our State than all other
causes combined. Beeauso Senator
Mclaurin is friendly with the ad
ministration and is on speaking
ternis with leading Republicans, lie
is branded a traitor. If bc is a trai
tor, so aro Tillman, Congressman
Wilson, Congressman Stokes and
the whole crowd. We like Con
gressman Stokes because he has a
strong pull in the post olliec depart
ment ; we like Congressman Wilson
because he "stands in with Uncle
Sam" and generally soouroB from a
Republican administration what ho
wants for his district. Senator Till
man has grown much wiser and
broader since he has associated in a
most friendly way with leading Re
publican Senators and hoads of de
partments. They are to bo com
mended for their policy and conduct
which are altogether honorable.
What, they do in their way for their
constituents, Senator McLaurin does
in his way. Wc suggest to the edi
tor who penned thal article to take
off thc hoad of his paper and call it
"Behind Tl.e Times and Autocrat."

Signature of
The Texas 1 louse of Representa
tives, on last Monday, adopted an
amendment to thc occupation tax
bill, placing a State lax of ((5,000 a
year on any telegraph, telephone or
railroad company or other corpora
tion which shall use or permit to he
used its lines or wires for conveying
market quotations for brokerage
business. An annual Slate tax of
$0,000 is also placed on all brokerage
linns doing business in tho Stale.
This tux will have tho effect of clos
ing up every col on exchange and
brokerage house in the Slate. That
is the object o' thc amendment.
Dancing to Our Notion.
Thc young people who indulge in Hie
giddy mazes of tho waltz will hear with
interest thal tho heads of Washington
and New York society have declared
thal "setting out" a waltz will be more
fashionable from now on than dancing.
The "sitting out" embodies tho same
position as dancing, tho only d i ffe ronco
is that yon sit instead of dance. Tho
man's right arm is around thc girl's waist,
while his left hand holds her right, lier
left hand is placed on his shoulder,
while her head rests lovingly upon his
bosom, foul all they have to do is sit
ami listen to thc music. Now that is
something like it. Wo have always re
garded it as quito a nuisance to have to
gallop a milo or two j. t a hug or two.
A room full of people sitting on sofas
hugging to music is moro lo our notion.
This will give the. old rheumatic brethren
another good chanco to waltz. Mon
wall/., not for tho dance, but for the posi
lion, ?uni while many a man may lose his
appetite for dancing he has togotpowoi
ful old before ho loses his appetite for
hugging a pretty girl.

for this terrible adi ie t ion, because it is
the only remedy which goes di root to

Col. .lack Chino, of Kentucky,
who was with Goobel when lie was
shot, said to a New York World
correspondent anent the pistol carry
ing habit :
"The oidy place in the Union
where 1 do not have to carry a gnu
is New York city. I feel safe there
and never take my pistols out of the
valise when I strike that town. I
always carry a pistol iti Chicago and
others towns. I Jut I am opposed to
the practice. It is not a pleasant!
one, and it is not good for the State. |
If they would let ino draw up a law !
I would slop il.
"How would I do it? In the first
place, I would legalize duelling ; but ;
I would make it a capital offense for'
two men to light within -I hours
after a quarrel. That would make
them sleep on the proposition, and
lhere would be very few lights. I
would also make it an offense pun
ishable by ten years in the peniten
tiary for any man to c u ry a con
cealed weapon or draw it in a public
place. We have a law here against
carrying weapons ; but it i" not of- '
feet i ve.
UJ want to say that 911 cases out
of a UH) where a man is killed in a
street light herc ii is nothing moro
than assassination. One man has
everything on Iiis side and the other
has nothing.
"Do you suppose 1 have been com
fortable during the past week Ol' so,
with sonic one liable to shoot, ino
down any minute, as they did Hill
(?oebel ? Not a bit of it. Hut 1
want to say that I would not kill a
niau for almost anything on earth.
The newspapers ot* this country have
painted mo as a had man, ready and
eager to make trouble at any lime ;
but that is wrong, i have a heart in
my bosom and love for my fellow
men. I would rather go to my own
grave than cause some mother or
wife to weep over thc grave of a son
or husband killed by my hand."
While Col. Chino thus spoke in
all apparent sincerity, ho had his
"house gun," "Old Hits," n .-If)
Colls stuck inside the waist ol' his
trousers, a .?IS Smith & Wesson in
hie hip pocket and a spring knife

Wallington ] \isl willi Representa
tive Stokes ol' this State :
"I am very much concerned just
ut present," said Representative
Stokes, of South Carolina, "in nu
effort tn extend tli>' free delivery of
mail along star roules. I have had
one or two peculiar experiences while
trying lo promote this brauch td' pos
tal service. An amendment for that
kimi of free delivery was passed by
the last Congress, but, through some
envv of the committee clerks, it was
given the same number as an amend
ment that Senator Tillman lind ad
opted regarding star route contrac
tors. Mr.Tillman's amendment pro
vided thal contractors should live in
the State where they contracted to
carry mails. There was very deter
mined opposition to that in the
I louse, and I pleaded in vain lo have
the tangle straightened out.
"So my amendment was lost, bul
al the Post Oflicc Department they
promised to try an experiment for
me in the Slate of South Carolina.
They advertised for contracts, with
anti without provisions thal contrac
tors should deliver the mail ulong
their routes, wherever the fanners
would erect boxes and comply with
certain regulations. Quite to my
surprise and that of the department
officials the difference in cost for the
improvised service was only *t><K) for
the entire State.
"I fell very enthusiastic over thc
showing, and early in thc session
reintroduced a bill thal 1 offered in
the last Congress, providing for this
improved service on all star routes.
Von can imagine thal I felt compli
mented a few days ugo, when I
found identically the same bill, word
for wort!, introduced by a Pennsyl
vania Republican. Ile had found a
copy of my old bill, which he very
apparently regarded as a good thing,
and reintroduced it."
