Tho description of the doraagogue by ( ; raves was superb, lint, even he oould scarcely comprehend tho rara ads of these parte. Under the oloak of an "eminent divino" thore is an attempted theft of ''tho livery of heaven." WHOSE hand baa boen holping tho edi tor of tho Oconeo News in his off usions of late? "Tho voice is the voice of Jacob, but tho hand is tho hand of Esau." TALK about competition ! Tho Courier knows none in the Ooonoo Nows under its present management. The boasted efforts of tho editor aro as harmless and futile as could bo imagiuod. On tho oontrary, wo aro furnished tho amuse ment every two or throo weeks of hoist ing him With his potnrd. CAPT. J. M. PATRICK, of Anderson, has boen announced as a candidato for Adju tant and Inspector Genoral. Wo know no man in tho Stato bettor titted for the placo, nor one moro deserving, ('apt. Patrick is a Bon of tho lato Col. John B. Patrick, and is a graduate of Kerman University of tho class of 1883. Sine?. lea vim; CollogO ho lias been continuously connected with tho militia of tho Stato. He taught in tho Patrick Military Insti tute up to tho timo of his fathor's doath, and since that timo has boen at tho hoad of tho military company at Anderson. We would indeed bo pleased to soo Oco neo givo lum a solid voto. TUB editor of the Oconeo NOWB attempts thofacotious over tho misprint of "1001" for "1001" which appeared in Tho Courier two weeks ago, and says ho is not ablo to prophesy so far ahead. In his issue of April 3, 1002, ho announces that tho Domocratio Hxccutivo Committee mot on April 21, 1002. Is this a prophecy? Is he a prophet, or tho BOH of a prophot or just a plain, every-day son-of-a-guu? Wo are human, and lay no claim what ever either to infallibility or "eminent divinity"; boneo mistakes pass us occa sionally. But if wo published a paper with one-fourth tho orrors of that of our contemporary wo would cortainly call it "Tho Typographical Error." To tho young hopeful tho old mau said: "Dickio, how did you got through college?" "Well, I wont iu at tho front door and walked out at tho back door." "Did you seo tho room with books, and tables and chairs, where tho pooplo read?" *'Yo8, I stopped thoro, and saw some thing about Diekens, and tho Pickwick Papers." "Didn't you BOO Blackstone, and read what ho said about law and Order?" "No; hut I eau toll Courts, lawyers and juries what they ought to do-and newspapers, too; why, lean toll othors how to run them. Nevertheless mino runs in tho ground onco in nwhilo and tho Sheriff has to hammer it out." If auything olso you want to know inquire of tho editor of tho Oconeo Nows. IN his efforts to display "feathers in tho net :" of ono of tho mombors of Tho Courier firm, tho editor of tho Oconeo Nows uncovered a quantity of "down" from tho gosling in his own-and tho old gooso quacks on. In tho blatant, "botter than-thou" stylo of tho canting hypocrito ho has charged Tho Courier with over charging tho county for advertising, only to find that his own accounts were in excess of ours, and thou ho explains it by saying "his foroman did it." Ho (not hin foreman) took an oath, in solemn form, that thoso accounts wero "just and true, not overcharged," otc.-and yet he says "his foroman did it." Evidently ho esteems his oath very lightly, and, like himself, it will boar watching. But hold your breath I His latest attempt is to palm himself off as an "eminent divine." May tho saints preservo us! and will this would-bo 'eminent divino" from tho Bouth sido of Midway please lead us in prayor for tho souls of those who "foathor their nests," swear to false accounts, etc., and etc., of whom ho is chief? _ THE CLOCK'S THREE HANDS. "Como, hurry upi" said tho second hand of a clock to tho minute hand. "You'll novor got around in timo if you don't. See how fast I am going!" con tinued tho fussy little monitor, as it fret tod round on its pivot. "Como, hurry up!" said tho minute hand to tho hour hand, uttorly oblivious of being addressed by tho second hand. "If you don't bo quick, you'll never bo in at tho stroke of ono." "Well, that's just what our young friond hero has been saying to yon. ' At tliis point tho clock pealed forth the hour, as tho hour hand continued: "Yon soe wo're in time, not one of us behind. You tako my advice, do your own work in your own way, and leave othors alone." Moral: Mind your own business.-Tho Sunday School Visitor. Tho moral of tho above is respectfully referred to tho would-be "ominontdivino" from Midway, south side. A Valuable Medicine for Coughs and Colds in Children.

DEMOCRATIC EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE. Making Ready for the Political Campaign this Summer. The State Democratic Executive Com tuittee met in Columbia on Thursday night and fixed the date for the meeting of the State Convention. An effort wa? made tb have the convention meet in Charleston, but some of the members thought they caught the odor of a "nig ger in the wood pile" and tbiB proposi tion was voted dowu. Tweoty-six of the forty countios were represented. Senator Tillman waa prosout by virtue of his position as member of the National Com mittee. Col. Wilie Jones, chairman of the committee, presided, and Mr. U. X. Gunter, Jr., the secretary, was in bis place. The members present wore: A. W. Jones, Abbeville: W. W. Williams, Aiken; J. Perry Glenn, Anderson; 8. G. Mayfield, Bamberg; G. Duncan Bellin ger, Uar nw ell: s G. McCoy, Berkeley; W. F. Stevenson, Chesterfield; Louis A peel i, Clarendon; L. J. Williams, Edge field ;T. JJ. Kitchens, Fairfield; D. H. Traxler, Florence; M. L. Donaldson, Greenville; D. H. Magill, Greenwood; M. B. M (Sweeney, Hampton ; J, A. Mc Dermott, Korry: D. G. Richards, Ker shaw; J. H. Wharton, Laurens: D. J. Griffith, Lexington; W. D. Evans, Marl boro; Cole L. Blease, Newberry; W. J. Stribling, Oconoo; W. O. Tatum, Orange burg; Wilie Jones, Riohlaud; R. B. Wat son, Saluda; Altamont Moses, Sumter; J. C. Wilborn, York; U. X. Gunter, Jr., secretary; B. R. Tillman, member of the National Democratic Executive Commit tee. There was considerable discussion caused by tho iutroduotiou of a resolu tion by Mr. Magill that no member be allowed to vote unless that monibor had beou regularly elected. This was sup ported by W. D. Evans and C. L. Bloaso, J? II. Wharton and Altamont Moses opposed the motion. Senator Tillman said in roply to Mr. Moses that it is some timos tho caso that members of tho National Domocratio Committee are rep resented by proxy. It was decided to lot members prosout, by proxy or other wise, participate in the proceedings and in the votes. When this matter was Bottled, Col. Jones announced that tho committee had received a request that tho meet in;; of the Stato Convention ho hold in Charleston. Ho read a telegram from Major J. C. Homphill, manager of the department of promotion and publicity, offering tho convention the uso of an auditorium and assuring tho members of a warm wolcomo. Thoro was also a telo gram from Capt. F. W. Wagoner, presi dent of tho Exposition, in which ho askod Senator Appclt and Mr. J. C. Wilborn to use thoir inlluonco to have the conven tion mcot in Charleston. In accordance with t hese invitations, Col. Wharton offered a resolution that tho May couvoution of tho Stato Demo cratic party bo hold in Charleston. In supporting his resolution Col. Wharton spoke in glowing terms of tho exposition and stated that tho railroad faro from most of the towns in tho Stato would bo lower to Charleston than to Columbia on account of tho exposition rates. Mr. Bloaso offered a substitute for Col. Wharton's resolution. Tho resolution fixed Columbia as tho placo for mooting and tho 21st of May as the dato. In sup porting his resolut ion Mr. Bloaso spoke in highest terms of Charleston and the Exposition, but it would bo contrary to tho spirit of tho constitution of tho Domocratio party for tho meeting to he hold outside of Columbia. Mr. Bollinger contended that tho first thing to consider is whether or not it would benefit tho Domocratio party for tho convention to meet in Charleston. Ho intimated that certain issues might arise which could bo bettor discussed in Columbia. Mr. W. J. Stribling, of Walhalla, said that tho faro from that placo would rea) h be $2.50 cheaper to Charleston thau to Columbia, but tho othor ex penses would offset this dil?orouce. Furthermore tho memheis of tho convention might fall into tho hands of tho Philistines-tho blind tigers. Tho motion was put and Mr. Bloaso's substituto to hold tho convention iu Columbia was carried by a voto of 21 to 7. Thoro seemed to bo a hidden reason for objecting to tho proposed chango in tho placo of mooting; probably Bomo expect matters affecting tho organization of tho party to como up, and think it best for such matters to bo disposed of away from tho enchanting music of tho midway spielers. Ono of i hese matters of party policy is the al i it mle of ore an i/.ed Democracy toward tho so-called "Commercial Demo crats." Mr. Bloaso introduced a resolu tion to tho effect that tho committee advise tho convention to add a new sec tion to tho oath to bo taken by candi dates in tho Stato primary, so that thoy would bo bound to support tho platform of tho National Democratic party. Ue withdrew tho resolution at tho sugges tion of W. D. Evans, who declared that it would bo somewhat like arrogance for this committoo, which now goos out of existence, to make any such suggestion to tho couvoution. Thoro was no further business and tho committee adjourned. Under tho consti tution of tho party the Domocratio clubs in tho State meet to reorganizo on tho laut Saturday in April, tho 20th, this year. The county conventions mcot on tho first Monday in May, tho 5th day, and olect delegates to tho Stato Convention, which meei s in Colombia on tho 21st of May. Purify the Blood.

Kidney trouble preys upon the mind, dis courages and lessens ambition; beauty, vigor and cheerfulness soon disappear when the kid neys are out of order or diseased. Kidney trouble has become so prevalent that it ls not uncommon for a child to bo born afflicted with weak kid neys.

Seneca, April 8.-Tho presentation of tho "Doestri?k Skule" at the Low ry-Byrd JUaJl last Friday evening ia conceded to be the biggest hit in the way of enter tainments ever given in Seneca. The largo crowd showed ita appreciation of the fact by repeated aud vociferous encore. It Is impossible to givo a com plete Hat of those who took part, as there wore forty in number, and all acquitted themselves most creditably. A few of tho most prominent ore given. T. E. Stribling, as teacher, showed a thorough mastery of bis duties, while Dr. E. C. Doyle, as head committeeman, examined the scholars aud delivered his impres sions upon tho' evident progress In a laborious speech, whioh was delivered in characteristic style. Mrs. W. S. Hunter as the crying girl, Miss Sarah Livingston as the lisping girl, Miss Annie Aloxander as the giggling girl, were all fine. Cecil Todd supported the part of the stammer ing boy, Carl Smith the Irishman, and Qeno Lewis that of Smart Alick, most creditably. The two pairs of Honey suckle 'wins, represented by Lois Byrd and 11 nut er Brownlee, aged tour years, and Chris and Bright Lowry, aged six, who wero permitted to visit sohool the last day, attracted thobr full share of at tention and received round after round of applauso. Mrs. J. W. Byrd, repre senting tho mother of the twins, visits sohool in the afternoon and delivers an original poora, in which she recounts in "teching" sentiment the grief of patrons and scholars upon the departure of the skule mai st er. Mrs. Byrd supported her part most admirably, her costume boing iu thorough accord with the times. Nu merous speeches and compositions were delivered by tho scholars. Mrs. Bacon in "Twinkle, twinkle, little .'tar," Mrs. O. It. Doyle, "Six little rabbits," Mrs. W. S. ll unter, "I had ten cents, Ac," wore all good. Mrs. F. M. Carey's ossay on "Health receipts," whioh contained many local hits, wan read in her inimita ble style, and in tho language of David Harum, "desorves a peg to itself." Miss Sarah Livingston's composition on" M an" and Miss May Thompson's on "Spring" wore most happily rendered. Perhaps tho character which attracted most at tention, and ono which ovidencod most talent , was that of Charles Koid, who played part of dunce. Tho recitation of his lesson, consisting of four letters pasted ou a largo wooden paddie for book, was side-splitting, aud whoo he advanced to tho front of tho st age for his speech, tho audience roared. The speech was a piece >f art. One local hit after another, flivon in Mr. Reid's incomparable style, oft all under tho impression that he is perfect oven at playing the "dunce lu skulo."
