Our (onditon.
Why is it that many of our" Nst
farmers have been paying from fifty
t) 0110 hundred per ceut, out of their
honest hard earnings, dug out of the
ground, to their merchants for their
suppli(es?
It was not so before the war. We
are the same people and live on, and
cultivate the same kind of land in
pretty much the same kind of prod
ucts; and it takes as much hbor to
cultivate the soil now as it ever did.
The merchants do not seem to bo
making any better living than they
did under the old system of lan:; in
fact before the war it was a HeldOIl
thing for any of our merchants to fail,
now it is a common thing, even
among those who make advances to
our farmers at such, seemingly, pr"ofits.
There are many cunses for this coa
dition of our peo~pleI anid the ptrac(tical
solution of the quest ion, is tho great
question of the day; and( as a ne'{cssi

lore for goods than lie would if cash t
ere to be paid for them. The dif- r
?rence a between the cash price and t
lie credit price is in its nature really 1
iterest, for it is a compensation clar- r
ed for the use of money. It is a per- I
nctly legitimate and fair transaction
>rovided the dif'erenco is not too

tood on both sides. But when, as is

f the cash price of 1111 article is 75
-ents and the credit price $1, the dif

tIlie 75 cents. This is equivalent to
l3 per cent. interest, (lisguised un

10 per cent. interest on the credit,
price is interest not only on the 75
t"ents which is the real principal, but
also on the 33 per cent. disguised
interest. This is in reality a cliargge
of 131 pir cent. on the cash price
and should be added to the 3.3 per

Convention.
The Consititutioi of the Democrat
party in Section VII provides as
ill1ows:
"The State Ccnvention shall be (1
)111)sed of (legates from eachlt (
>unhy in ihe niunerical proportion in i
licl that county in ontitled to in both

It Will be observed that the Ian
uage of the Constitution is that rep
entation shall be upon the basis of
vhat each county is entitled in both 1
>ranches of the General Assembly,
mid not what they imev actually have
herein.
It is one thing to be entitled to a
ertain representatlon in the. Legisla
ure, and quite another thing, it
seems, actually to have such repre
entation,
Snmiter county for instance is enti
:led according to population to five
nembers to the house of Represen.
atives, but actually has only four.
Greenville, Spartanburg, Laurens,
Edgetield, Marlboro and Beaufort
ire each entitled to an additional
menber, but in fact are deprived of
their true repsesentation. On the
other hand Charleston County accor
ding to population is only entitled to
aboiut seven inein1bers in the IHou8e,
but lctuadlV has twelve.
The reas) m why this inequality ex
ists is owi~ng to the deliberate refusal
of 1 bare majority of the State Sei
ate last wvinter, principally led by the
Sin:tt rs from Cliarlest n, to provide
fr the cenisus, althotugh inpcratiNe
ly required by the Constitution of the
St ate, which Constitutiont its inein

But if the State Senate has refused
to do its ltuty, can the Denmocratic
party in the State Convention refuse
to do justice to the County?
Ca the Deinoeratic party afford to
de"prive these coti)t.ies of their proper
representation in tihe State Conven
li n! Are the counsties of Greenville,
