During the 53 years my life I have uot drank as much as half-barrel of whisky ; but I belie1 where a man uses whisky withoi abusing it, where he merely drinl for the exhilarating effect and stoj there, and does not waste hissubstan< ou it, I believe be has as mu( right to drink as he has . eat. The Bible does not teach pr hibition.

Senator Tillman was listened t throughout bis speech with the close attention, and was frequently cheeret He said some pretty hard things ; bi bis manuer of saying them was so ii offensive that they left no sliug. Eve when he used the terms fools and jacl asses, it was apparently just in fui and although in print it may seem thi v he was apparently quite aggressive As a matter of fact he was really o the defensive throughout. There wt as much real strength in what he ha to say as in any other speech he ha ever made from the York count stump; but the audience was one < the calmest aud coolest he has ev< addressed in this county, aud thi made a difference. \ LOCAL LACONICS.

A card received >r from him yesterday stated tbut his mother was much better and he would be home today. * Thk Enquirkr had a pleasant visit 3 last Saturday from the present governor and the next governor. Governor McSweeney and Colonel Hoyt is both called and had a look through je the office. Both are old acquaintances and fellow-newspaper workers. Either is fit to he governor of South Carolina or president of the Uuited States, and it has been many a long year since the c people have had the opportunity to r, vote for the superior of either. One je of them will surely be the next gov^ eruor. It hardly seems that there is anyone else in the race. Ulfsuch efforts as are being made to save the Sutro mill should fail, the calamity will fall first on Mr. T. B. 10 McClain, and next upon the town of f- Yorkville. Than Mr. McClain no man it who has ever lived iu Yorkville has contributed more to the growth ami ,n prosperity of the town. He has worked iu season and out of season, carrying his days far into the nights, and delD voting all his efforts to developments that have redounded to the benefit of l- the entire community. The Sutro Cotton mill is different from other coin terprises only in that it is of greater ir proportions. Mr. McClain's commercial integrity and private character B" have been unimpeached and uniuif* peachatde. His mill is only in need of le working capital and fully capable of paying dividends on all that is requir ,e ed. If fuilure should come under such circumstances, we use a mild term when we say the situation is regreta d ble. ie , . -e XFINANCIAL TROUBLE. re The Loan and Savings bank failed ig to open its doors for business last Satis urday morning, and since then it has id been dawning more and more clearly ;h upon the people that the town is in :d trouble and lots of it. The bank failed ts for about $80,000. 11- It is a complicated story, and a clear t- stateraeut of details is impracticable, it No man cau tell it just as it is, and re probably there is nothing to he gained er by the attempt. For the present the >y fact of the failure, and the fact that a le majority of the business people of the re towu are directly interested either as jt depositors or stockholders, issuilicieut. ix Although the fuct has just come out, for quite awhile the bank had been heavily overloaded. There were included in its assets a number of securities that were of doubtful value. The cash in the vaults had heeu drawn quite low. There came a crisis that revealed the situation, a run was commenced late Friday afternoon, and at a meeting of the directors Friday night, it was decided, after a careful canvass of the situation, not to open for business Saturday morning. With liabilities of about $85,000, and with cash and other quick assets of considerably less than oue-third of that amonnt, it appeared that there was nothing to do but throw the matter into the hauds of a receiver, and steps were takeu to that end on Saturday. For the convenience of those interested, Judge Gage came up from Chester on Monday to hear the case. Two petitions were presented to bis honor. One was by W. W. Lewis, Esq., upon the advice and consent of directors. and in behalf of a large creditor. The other was by W. B. McCaw, Esq., at the instance also of directors, stockholders and depositors. The first bill merely sought the appointment of a receiver as is usual in such cases, and the second requested the court to empower the directors of the bank to wind up its affairs, they having agreed to serve without compensation. There was a contest between the two petitions occasioned principally by the fact that some of the people who had sanctioned the first proceeding, afterward changed their minds and gave their adherence to the second. The matter ' was temporarily settled by a postponement of the receivership matter until the 29th of August, leaving the affairs of the bauk in statu quo in the meantime. What is going to be done remains to he seen. There has been talk of an earnest effort on the part of the stockholders to try to get the cash with which to pay off all depositors. This may succeed and it may not. If it fails, a receiver will be appointed, and the stockholders will be held bound to the depositors and other creditors not only for the amount of their respective holdings, but for 105 per cent, in addition. As to whether the Sutro mill condition is as desperate as that of the bank cannot be stated positively. It does uot look so bad. The mill made a profit of $2,000 a month back in the spring, and under present conditions is capable of netting $1,000 a month now. This is sufficient to pay interest on all its fixed charges and leaving a bandsome monthly credit to a sinking fund besides. It is only a question of holding bock creditors while the property lifts itself out of danger. If the creditors are sensible and look to their in- j terests, the mill will not fall into the , meshes of a receivership and become j food for the lawyers. Secured and unsecured creditors alike will get all < that is theirs. Otherwise, secured 1 creditors will get, in most instances, a part of what belongs to them, and un- ^ secured creditors will get nothing? that is, not out of the particular wreck ' that will now occur. Some experi- j enced mill men have made an advan tageous proposition to creditors ; but whether or not the creditors are going to accept has not developed. AT THE CHURCHES. BAPTIST. REV. J. B.

There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an intlamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets intlamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten i are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an intlamed condition of the mucous surfaces. \Vn will <rivr> Dim Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh, that cannot he cured hy Hall's Catarrh Cure.

LINDSAY PLANTATION " FOR SALE. ^ A. 321-Acre Highly Improved Farm, : Adjacent to Town Conveniences. FOR cash, or upon satisfactory terms to j! the right party, I offer at private sale that tract of land on the southwestern 1 outskirts of Yorkville, known as the Dr. P J. F. LINDSAY PLANTATION. This plantation includes 321 ACRES, I lying on both sides of the Pinckney road. which runs nearly through the centre, r The S. 0. it G. Extension railroad passes ^ through one corner, and the C. it N.-W, r R. R. runs within ahout 200 yards of the p eastern boundry. The northeastern line is within 1J miles of the courthouse, and : the town is accessible over either the I Chester or Pickney roads. There are under cultivation and in pasture about 200 acres, and the balance is I in woodland, most of which is original ^ forest, including manv THOUSAND n CORDS OF FIREWOOD, and more or ,J less valuable timber. That portion of 1 land which is under cultivation is highly F improved, including a thorough system of terraces cast along scientific lines and of from seven to ten years' standing. All the land lies well. The buildings include a ONE STORY i FRAME BUILDING, 5 rooms, in fair repair, suitable for overseer, on the Pinck- f( ney road, just two miles from the court- 8 house, a good barn and four outbuildings, p with a well of good water. There are on the place FOUR TENEMENT HOUSES, _ each near a spring, and on the place ^ six springs, all of which are convenient to one or the other of the different cul- e tivated fields. a Several of the fields have, with favor- _ able seasons, vielded an average of a BALE OF COTTON TO THE ACRE, and one four-acre tract has a record of SEVEN BALES. This plantation was improved by the late Dr. J. F. LINDSAY, during a period of 25 years, and most of the local public is aware that, especially s during the last ten years of his life, he s made on it heavier crops at less expense p than were made by any other farmer on any other plantation in this section of the _ county. All of the land is as good or y better now than it has ever been. I ask for this plantation $25 AN ACRE, j I am farming the place this year and ? would want to give possession January ? 1st, 1001; but in the meantime the pur- t| chaser would be at liberty to build, cut timber or do anything else that would _ not interfere with the cultivation or gathering of the crop.
