In his letter, Cap? tain Tillman says: 1 acknowledge, * with ? thanks,' your kind letter of September 15, and appre? ciate very fully your congratulations and expressions of good will. You are to be felicitated upon having obtained, without a straggle, the nomination for .which I had^to^fight. so nard.

Augusta Chronicle. . Haskell Endorsed. Mabion, S. C, October 4.?At a meet? ing of the Straightout Democrats of Ma? rion held at the Court House to day, after the adoption of a resolution endorsing fully the statements and conclusions of the letter of Judge A. C. Haskell, pub? lished, in the News and Courier on Tues? day last, it was unanimously resolved that a committee of six, consisting of tbe un? dersigned, be appointed to invite a con? ference of.the Straightout Democrats from every County in the State to meet at Co? lumbia, S. C, on Thursday next,'the 6th inst, at 8 o'clock p. m., to nominate a ticket for State officers to be voted for at the ensuing election. The said committee, in obedience to said resolution and in conformity there? with, invite delegations of Straightout Democrats from every County in the State who are favorable to such nominations, to meet delegates from Marion County at the time and place aforesaid to nominate a State ticket. W. W. Dubant, Wm. D. Johnson, S. A. Dubham, J. E. Dunlop, S. E. McMillan, John H. David. One Defection. The Marion Star is the only newspaper in the State that endorses Judge Haskell's manifesto and indicates a purpose to sup? port the State ticket announced last week as one to be nominated by the Bepubli? cans, headed by Judge Haskell. We are sorry to see the Star, which has been long and consistently an aggressive and deter? mined exponent of straight Democracy, straying from the fold; particularly as it has during many years, fought along the same lines with the Greenville News. The press of the State?and especially the country press?has made a record this year of which its members and the State may well be proud. With three or four exceptions the newspapers have stood firmly by what they believed to be the real interests of the people against an overwhelming popular rush. They have stood to their guns gallantly in the face of proscription, threats and evident defeat. Beaten, they have with one ac? cord, with this solitary exception, wheel? ed into line and given the party and State loyal support. The temptation on both sides have been great for men who work as hard and for as little return as any class in tbe State. Many newspapers could have profited heavily by "flopping" at a convenient time. We believe several could have gained largely in circulation and income by supporting Judge Haskell's position. The men who occupy that position?the irreconcilables?are generally men of means, and few as they are compared with the masses on the other aide, they would in the aggregate form a constitu? ency which would be a handsome support for several newspapers. The newspaper men, however, have been true as steel to their convictions and they have won the thanks and honor of tbe State.?Greenville Neios. ?A great many Dakota people are pre? paring to move South this winter. They are tired of the blizzard country, and will settle permanently in the South. Baring Train Robbers. Toledo, Ohio, October 2.?The Blade's special from Carey, Ohio, gives an account of a bold train robbery this morning on the Cincinnati, Sandusky and Cleveland railroad, between that place and Urbana. Immediately after the train left Urbana two masked men, with concealed revol? vers, entered tbe express car and compell? ed the Adams Express messenger, A. L. Scudder, to throw up his bands. They then tied him securely, robbed the safe of Sackages containing several thousand ollars and other valuables. While they were at work, a brakeman attempted to enter the car and was shot at by one of the robbers. He gave the alarm, and the train was slowed up to give an opportunity to capture the robbers but they jumped from the train just as it was entering West Liberty and disap? peared in the darkness, it being then just about 3:30 o'clock. Messenger Scudder was bound in his chair with a wash line that the robbers brought with them. One of them, whom the other called "Jack," tried to kill Scudder before leaving the car. Placing his revolver at his head he polled the trigger, but the cartridge failed to ex? plode. The other robber then prevented him from trying again. When the train pulled out of West Liberty the two scoundrels got aboard again, holding the entire crew at bay. Scudder, who had been released, opened fire on them with a pistol from bis car door, but was compelled to retreat. The robbers kept on board until Bellefontaine was reached, when they again jumped off and disappeared. The officers at Belle fontaine are seachiog for them. Scudder is about fifty years old and lives in Cin? cinnati and has been on this run since the Adams Company took charge of the ex? press business upon ic about three years ago. He was previously in tbe same company's employ on the other river lines He had just received his month's salary, and that was among the booty. ' Suicide on a Train. Charleston, Oct. 61?A peculiar tragedy occurred on the down Columbia train of the South Carolina Railroad, due here 9:15 to-night. Soon after the train left Branchville one of the passengers entered the toilet room of the coach. He locked himself in and remained there so long that some of the passengers called .the conductor's attention to the fact. The conductor forced the door open and found the man swinging by his neck dead. He had used one of his suspen? ders, which he made fast to the venti? lating tube near the ceiling. The body was cut down and brought to the city. On his person was found a card bearing the address of J. Schuch, 1634 Hartford avenue, Baltimore, and about $115 in money. The suicide is about 30 years old and weighs about 200 pounds. No one could identify him. The conductor Bays he boarded the train between Co? lumbia and Branchville. A -Murderer Escapes from Greenville Jail In bis Wife's Clothing. .Greenville, S. C, October 6.?A sensation .was created-here this morning by the escape from jail of "Bill" Howard, who is under death sentence for murder of a confederate in the moonshine whisky business over a year ago. Howard's wife was allowed to spend the night in the cell with her husband. This morning Howard,' dressed in his wife's clothing, came down tbe stairs ot the jail, with an infant in his arms, -and, leaving the baby at a relative's house, he fled before the jailer had discovered the trick that had been played oh him. Mrs. Howard, who is a buxom moun? tain girl of 17 years, now occupies the cell vacated by her husband, whose cap? ture is hardly possible. Tbe Cotton Crop. New Orleans, October 2.?The Sep? tember crop statement issued to-day by Secretary Hester of the New Orleans Cotton Exchange shows tbe largest movement of cotton for the first month j>f the season since the war, if not in the history of the cotton trade. The amount brought into sight for the month was was 851,652 bales against 668,988 in Sep? tember, 1889, and 433,978, in September, 1888. The early crop of 1887-88 brought into sight in September of that year 824, 000 bales, the nearest to this season's movement on record. The statement shows the receipts at the port for tbe month, 722,779 bales against 574,157 last -year. Jewish Oppression. Neat York, October 4.?News of op? pression of the Jews in Russia has been received in the city and their fellow countrymen here .have been bestirring themselves to relieve them by sending the exiles back to Palestine. It isihought by the Hebrews that the oppression is one of. the phases of the' fulfillment of the ancient prophecy "that in the last three days there will be a gathering of the tribes of Israel in the Holy Land." Circulars printed in Hebrew and English, Bigned by Chief Rabbi Jacob Joseph, Coroner F. Levy and the Rev. Dr. L. Zihsler, have been distributed among the Hebrews, which set forth the reasons why the Russian Hebrews should be helped to migrate to the ancient home of the race. Meetings have been called, and about $1,000 has already been subscribed. Jews all through the country are also asked to contribute. ? A Valuable Recipe, The liquid in which the State board of . trade has bo successfully preserved fruit for. exhibition purposes is as follows: "Thirty gallons of filtered water are placed in a barrel, and on the wafer is placed a tin can containing 25 cents worth of sulphur. The sulphur is Bet on fire and the top of the barrel is covered with a piece of oilskin, so as to retain the fumes. When tbe sulphur ceases to burn the covering is removed, allowing the supply of oxygen in the barrel to be re? newed, and after stirring the water, the sulphur is again Bet on fire and the top of the barrel is again covered. This opera? tion is repeated until the sulphur will no longer burn, when the water is ready for use. Not only are fresh fruits preserved in this way, but where decay has set in it is completely checked and withered fruits have their plumpness and color restored. All of the fruit in the 'California on wheels' has been treated in this manner, and there are jars of fruit in the rooms of tbe board that were prepared over a year ago, the fruit still appearing as if but just but plucked from the trees."?Indiana Farmer. ?

For ten years to come the prices of woolen goods of the cheaper sort will be nearly doubled, as Boon as the tariff on wool and woolens shall make itself felt. This is one of the bjons conferred upon tbe laboring man for which he is expect? ed to be very grateful to the Republican party. ? The Constitutional Convention of Mississippi voted 72 to 18 agpinst putting Srohibition into the Constitution of the t?te. It was sensibly contended against the Prohibitionists that correction of tbe saloon evil could only come by improving public sentiment. It was stated by one speaker that forty Counties in the State bad already abolished saloons, action to that effect taking place under the local option law. Merit Wins. We desire to say to our citizen?, that for years we have been selling Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption, Dr. King's New Life Pills, Bucklen's Arnica Salve and Electric Bitters, and have never handled remedies that sell as well, or that have given such universal satisfaction. We do not hesitate to guarantee them ' every time, and we stand ready to refund the purchase price, if satisfactory results do not follow their use. These remedies have won their great popularity purely on their merits. For sale by Hill Bros. ??liang$ Column, All Communications intended for this Column should be addressed to J. W. Bowden, Denver, S. C. The Anderson Connty Farmers Alli? ance met on last Friday, 3rd October, in itB regular quarterly meeting. About 135 delegates were in attendance and Bhowed deep interest in the proceed? ings throughout. President Norm made an interesting and instructive talk in opening, on the progress that the Alliance had made, which gave great satisfaction and encouragement to those who heard it. A committee was appointed to look into the matter of building an Alliance ware? house at Anderson, to report at a call meeting. The scheme is generally looked on with favor by Alliancemen, and we think it would undoubtedly be of great benefit to the farmers of the County. If we can't get the snb treasuries we should get the nearest to it we can. There were a great many other matters attended to that were not of a public na? ture, and taking it altogether we think it one of the most business meetings that the County Alliance has had, and it didn't show the least sign of decay or a cessation of interest on the part of the farmers. We offered our resignation as editor of this column which was accepted, and we take this occasion to thank the publishers and readers of this paper for the courtesy that has been shown us during our con? nection with them. -o One of the most startling aud surpris? ing revelations made by the census is the enormons decrease in. farm values in the State of Ohio, which amounts to $80,000, 000, being a decrease of over 10 per cent, in the decade. How is it to be accounted for ? Mr. Senator Sherman, feeling the necessity of defending his high protective doctrines, attempts to explain it upon the ground that these counties which show a decrease are not manufacturing counties, nor adjacent to manufacturing count its, but later returns from the census do not bear the Senator out in this statement, for the county of Butler, which lies within a dozen miles of Cincinnati, and its North? ern line not fifteen miles from Dayton 'with its 60,000 population, engaged in various-manufacturing industries, shows the largest decrease of any county in the State, it being over 12 per cent. Franklin county, which contains the capital of the State, a city that shows an increase of nearly 71 per cent, in the decade, shows a decrease of $1,138,386 in farm values within the ten years. The counties which contain the coal areas of the State and which are within easy reach of thriv? ing and populous cities exhibit the same phenomenon. And even in Ashtabula, which is the. greatest dairy county of the State, and within easy reach of two flour? ishing cities aud besides containing with? in its borders two thriving lake ports, one of which has sprung up within the decade, and receives more iron than any other port on the lake, the real estate valuation shows a falling off of from 5 to 25 per cent. And now all over the State, so far as the returns go, there is the same state of things, a steady decrease in the value of farm property. The Senator will have to find a more general and far reaching cause than the one he assigns, and to my mind it is found in the fact of the excessive favors shown the manufacturer and the heavy burdens laid upon the farmer by an ex? cessively high protective tariff, which has amounted to annual tributes of 1 per cent a year. The logic of these tremendous facts is against Mr. Senator Sherman, and it is doubtful if the farmers of the State, with these eye openers before them, can longer be induced to vote to continue Ohio's tribute to this stupendous and suicidal folly. Nor is Ohio alone in this regard, for the farmers of Kansas,'blindly partisan though they have been for years, by the bard logic of their depleted pock books, are awakening to the injustice of one class Being made to pay tribute to another, and in one County in particular they have united in a petition to the Circuit Judge to stay the proceedings in the numerous suits under foreclosure pending in his Court. Verily, the farmers are being educated, in a rough school, though it be, but when they become thoroughly informed and aroused there will be a tremendous political cyclor.e in this country. ^ * ? It is now said that General Mahone has abandoned politics. He seems to think that his party has "gone back on him," and be will retaliate by cutting adrift from it. Mahone has had his day and dropped out of sight. ? IBlll WIIW ?' -?" M " ?-? ? II ?! Ill HI ATTENTION, DOCTORS.
