Old Georgia has just passed through one of the most exciting campaigns she has experienced since reconstruction days, and the Democrats have won the victory by bO,000 majority, though Mr. Atkinson, the candidate for Governor, ran behind his ticket; 4,000 votes. The ^Legislature will be composed of 166 ocrats, 49 Populists and 4 Republi? cans. The total vote was not as large as ! it was two years ago. ' mom ? "It is mighty hard to pay debts with 51 cent s cotton," is an assertion that Is fre? cently heard nowadays, says the York e Enquirer. The assertion is true ; t when was cotton at a price that would ?pay debts easily ? When cotton was high and people bought their corn, flour and me&t, where was the surplus w{th which to pay debts? Where a man raiues his own corn, wheat and meat, he shonld be just as able to pay as he ever was. m o m> Messrs. Latham, Alexander & Co., of New York, have kindly rem em bei ed the Inteleigencer with a copy of the twenty-first annual edition of their '^Cot? ton Movement and Fluctuations " It is indeed a handsome publication, and is filled with information that all who are interested in the cotton trade can ill afford to do without. The special features of | this edition is the interesting review of the cotton trade of the world, and an article entitled "Lancashire and Her Competitors," written expressly for it by the distinguished statistian Mr. Thomas Ellison, of Liverpool. The book also contains their own annual review of the trade for the past season, in addition to the usual tables of receipts, stacks, ex? ports, consumption, acreage, total visible supply and fluctuations, and much origi? nal matter that cannot be found elsewhere in snob, a concise form. In fact, as a book of reference it cannot be excelled. The boy or girl who is a regular news 'paper reader will grow upto-intelligence, and will use good language, both in speaking and writing, even with a limi? ted education. It is news, science,litera? ture, grammar, history, geography and spelling, combined. Sometimes it is a little hard to get the children interested in newspapers, but after they once get started, their intellectual cravings are as sure as the desire for food, and it is as necessary to feed their minds as their bodies. The local paper is the first to attract their attention. Incidentally they first read of some local event which came nnder their observation. Becoming reg? ular readers of the home press, they soon branch out into the affairs ot the world and read the general news of the day, and finally become competent to discuss matters of public interest, and are useful and intelligent citizens. Parents will do weil to lcok after this matter and then notice the improvement in their children. Says the St. Louis Globe-Democrat: ?Years ago Eli Whitney, by the inven? tion of the cotton gin, not only revolu? tionized the cot'on industry, but he was one of the most powerful, even if uncon? scious and unrecognized, agents in chang? ing the course of our political history. It is perhaps safe to say that the cotton gin indirectly brought on the war of the rebellion. Until the perfection of this invention slave labor was gradually declining in value. All through the South schemes of gradual emancipation were openly discussed. Rev. Jtimes F. Clarke, who was called to a church in Louisville some time in the '30 i, declares that there was more genera;, anti-slavery sentiment in that city than there was in Boston. Then came the cotton gin, and with it the demand for the extension of slave territory, and the passionate aban? donment of all possible schemes of eman? cipation. Slavery became a great politi? cal issue. Now wo are told that another Eli Whitney, a grandson of the famous inventor, has perfected a machine which may quite as seriously affect the whole question of the cotton industry. This ma? chine is called the cotton harvester, and will, it is said, with two man and two horses do the work of 100 men. This invention may play a very important part in settling the vexed raco problem in the South. It may help to move the bulk of the negro population from tbe cotton States and distribute them more evenly in the different sections of the Southern couotry. The possible conse? quences of such a change cannot be fore? seen. It would be one of the strange things of history if two men of the same name and blood should, by tho mero ex? ercise of mechanical skill, display such rare power in changing the face of their country's annals." Mr. W. H. Baldwin, third vice presi d. at of the S mthern Hallway Company, has recently made a trip South. On his return, he talks in glowing terms of tbe possibilities of this section, and in an in? terview wfth the Manufacturers1 Record, says that theSoutbern intends lending any assistance possible to the development of the Sontb, and that it will prove a power? ful ally. Says Mr. Baldwin : "The man? agement will do everything consistent in its power to aid the Sooth in bringing such immigration as is needed and will show the people of the North and West the resources and advantages of the whole section traversed by the varions lines that make np the Southern Rail? way. All who study the South and its delightfa\ climate, its wonderful charm' of scenery, and, in fact, every advantage to make life pleasant, will readily see its great advantages. When the people who have settled the frontiers of the North and West, and built up that country in the face of great discouragement, become folly acquainted with the South and its attractions, I think we shall see a great tide of population moving southward. Following the settler will come the in? vestor. Then manufacturing enterprises will bo developed, and towns and cities will grow in population and wealth, agri? cultural and mineral productions will increase, and throughout this whole region will be seen a new life and busi? ness activity." The Manufacturers' Record, of Balti? more, says that one of the greatest bless? ings that has ever befallen tbe South is the low price of cotton during the last I two years. Contrary to the opinion of those who think that -tho South's pros? perity would be enhanced by higher prices for cotton this season, the Manu? facturers' Record asserts that nine or ten oants for cotton would ultimately prove a disaster to the whole Sontb. The low prices of recent years have forced the far? mers of the Sonth into diversified agricul? ture?forced them to abandon cotton as their only crop, and to raise their corn and food stuffs at home. The net result of Bach a policy as this is to vastly en? hance the permanent prosperity of the Sontb, althcngh for the time being it may decrease the amonnt of money expended by Southern planters. Cotton at ten cents for the present crop would mean great activity in mercantile circles, und for the next twelve months an apparent remarkable prosperity; but ten cent cotton would mean that next year the farmers wonld abandon their efforts to raise corn and give their whole attention to cotton. Without regard to the fact the Sonth mast, by virtue of foreign compe? tition, abandon all expectations of ever selling cotton for high prices again except in occasional periods of short, crops, no greater disaster could befall the Sonth than to have the present tendency to di? versified agriculture changed before it has become firmly established on the part of all Southern farmers. Constitutional. Columbia, S. C, Oct. 8.?For the sec? ond time Governor Tillman's liquor law came out of the hands of the Supreme Court this evening now completely re? habilitated. The city council of Aiken against Hoi ley and George was the title of the case in Which Justices Pope and Gary, Tillmanites, sustained the dispen? sary, reversing the decision prononncing it unconstitutional delivered by the Court last April when Samuel McGowan, anti-Tillmanite, was a member. Justice Mclver, adhering to his former opinion, dissent?. It will be remembered that the April decision was upon an Act pass? ed in 1802. On August 1st Gary, who was elected over McGowan last Decem? ber, succeeded him and a woek previous Governor Tillman proclaimed in force the Act of '93, Which he had suspended in April.' Since then the dispensaries have been running on full time and con? stables have been seizing contraband spirits. When the dispensary at Aiken was re-opened the city council at once arrested George, tbe dispenser, and Hol ley, a member of the county board of con? trol, for violation of tbe city ordinance against the sale of liquor. The State car? ried the case before Circuit Judge Al drich, who sustained the city council, and then the State appealed to the Supreme Court. A special session of the latter was immediately convened. Justice Gary takes the ground thatthediiipensary sys? tem is "within the State's police power;" that the privilege of selling intoxicating liquors had been previously delegated to tbe saloon keeper and was not his ina? lienable right" as a citizen ; that it is anomalous to say that a privilege merely delegated can not be reclaimed by the governmental power from which it sprang; that the profit and taxation fea? tures are incidental to the scheme mere? ly, and that it is within tbe power of the "board of control" to eliminate them; that the objection.that a monopoly is cre? ated is met by the doctrine of the "slaughter honse cases" in which the Court declares a State's right to empow? er corporations with the exercise of such police power as-best can be enforced by them. The cause of the passage of the dispen? sary law he attributes to dissatisfaction with licensed saloons as a delegated method of police regulation. As to the in? ter-State commerce feature, he holds that it was the intention of tbe Wilson bill to subordinate the regulation of trade in li? quors to the local police regulation of the States. Justice Mclver, in dissenting, empha? sizes the doctrine oi^stare decisis,1' and reasserts his opinion as to the Act of '92, which confessedly applies with *qual force to the Act under considoration.? Special to the Greenville News. Mb. Enrroa: In your last issue you published the following taken from the Walhalla Courier: "The office of Master in Equity has been abolished in Anderson by an Act of the Legislature. There is no , economy in such action, for the simple reason that special referees will be ap Jointed to discharge the duties of the faster. These appointees will receive at least the fees fixed by law in each case, and in some cases they will receive a great deal more." Now, this is misleading. I have no idea that tbe editor of the Waiballa Cou? rier ever saw that Act, the title of which is, "An Act to abolish the office of Master in Anderson County and to devolve its duties upon the Probate Judge a? Special Referee." Section 4 of the Act reads as follows: "That the Circuit Judge when presiding in Anderson, before whom any case may come in which a reforence is uecessary shall appoint tbe Probate Judge of Anderson County Special Referee, with the powers and duties appertaining to Special Referees in Counties where there is do Master." From this you will see that no one but tbe Probate Judge can be appointed a Referee, and, therefore, in the Anderson County Act, we say there is eoonomy in such action, for the simple reason that two offices are blended into one, and one man doing the work of both, fees can be reduced so aa to benefit individuals who have work to do in this office. The bill introduced by Representative Cox, at the last session of the Legislature, to reduce ths fees and commissions of certain offi? cials in Anderson County would have passed and become a law, had it not been unnecessarily delayed befo.'e the Judiciary Committee of the House. J. Perry Glenn. ? To remove the constipated habit, tbe only safe treatment is a course of Ayer's Pills, followed by a laxative diet. Most other cathartics do more- harm than good, therefore leading physicians recommend Ayet's Pills, especially as a family physic. ? It is said that seven suicides is tbe normal daily average la New York and vicinity. Facts collated prove that pov? erty, which is usually considered a prime cause for self-murder, does not figure as the motive in the majority of these sui? cides, for most of the persons are those in comfortable clrcumsta.'ices, A Riot In (Jreenviile. Special to Slews and Courier. Greenville, October S.?Greenville has been considerably worked up to-day, and at ono timo there was serious danger of riot and bloodshed. The cause of the trouble was the attempt of dispensary Constables to search a private residence. ! This morning the Constables captured a trunk on a dray, while coming down Main street, which contained several dozen bottles of export beer. The negro driver was arrested and stated that he hauled the trunk from tho residence of Sol Edel, in North street. Edel formerly kept the Mansion House bar and his place has been raided several times. Constable Workman obtained a war? rant from Trial Justice Dav is to search Edel's house, and took it to the Sheriff, who declined to execute it, sayinc that as the Supreme Court had not yet decided on the validity of the dispensary law ho thought the search of a private residence was going too far. Constable Workman then found Mr. Mark, owner of the house where Edel lives, and told him of the warrant. Mark is Edel's father-in-law. Mark consented to the search and started with Workman. In the meantime Edel had heard of the warrantand went home, sending a negro ahead with a double barrelled shotgun. On the way Mark stopped and consult? ed with friends and then informed Work? man that be would prefer consulting bis lawyer before permitting the search. Workman agreed to this. Constable Eichelberger had gone on ahead and, seeing him, Mark and Workman follow? ed to the house. Dr. L. H. Peebles and James J Earle had walked up to the house. Mrs. Edel is in very delicate health and the arrival of her husband and news of the contemplated search excited her to a considerable degree and her suf? fering excited the indignation of Edel. Dr. Peebles, who knew of the condition of Mrs. Edel's health, stationed himself at the front gate, and when Constable Eichelberger came up said : "No Consta? ble can go ic the Jiouso except over my dead body." Citizens, hearing of the attempted search, rapidly gathered. Chief of Police Kennedy marched twelve officers to the scene and began to patrol the street, which was blocked with people. At this juncture Mr. Mark called attention to the fact that Edel rented the premises from him and that Edel was in'possession and he alone could give permission to enter. Workman took the warrant to Justice Davis and had it changed so as to apply to Edel. At this time Edel came out on the piazza and frantically declared that his wife was frightened almost to death, and that he would blow the brains out of any i man who attempted to enter his premises. The crowd gave volley after volley of cheers at every such utterance and citi? zens continued to flock to the seat of war. Eichelberger was standing at the front fence. Edel made a sudden rush toward the gate. Some of his friends on the piazza caught Edel; there was a slight scuffle, andEichelberger says he thought Edel was coming at him with a shotgun and he drew his pistol. There was an ominous silence and ev? eryone thought the time of killing was at hand. Fully one hundred revolvers were ready for death's work, and a sin? gle move of the arm of Eichelberger to use bis weapon would haye been the sig- I nal. But he did not make the move and bloodshed was averted. It was only a moment of time, but the tension made it seem an age. In a moment several, policemen sur? rounded Eichelberger to protect him and Kennedy at once placed him under arrest for drawing his pistol on a citizen, who was on his own premises. Eichelberger submitted to arrest and was taken to the store of Mayor Wil? liams, who heard a statement of the case and placed the constable under S50 bonds for his appearance to answer the char? ges. Eichelberger complained bitterly of bis treatment and besame so aggress? ive in his remarks that the mayor or? dered him to go out of the store and stay out. Later Mayor Williams was applied to to furnish a force of police to assist in making the search, but declined to unless advised to do so by bis counsel. During the afternoon Sheriff Gilreath repeatedly offered to make the search, but Consta? ble Workman refused to allow him to do so unless accompanied by a State consta? ble, and the Sheriff refused to go to Edel's house with constables. Everything is quiet to-night. Constable Workman thinks, aud the general sentiment is with him, that if he could have managed the affair by him? self he would have made the search, and no excitement or trouble would have fol? lowed. The following telegrams passed during the day: Greenville, S. C, October 8,1S94?To Governors. R. Tillman?Columbia, S. C.: Upon refusal of the Sheriff to exe? cute warrant, had warrant issued to my? self. Sheriff refused to accompany me. Mayor could not be found. In attempt? ing to execnte warrant, Mark consenting, Eichelberger was openly resisted by Edel, his son-in-law. Cheered by a large crowd standing around. Eichelberger was arrested by the chief of police and required to give bond. The mayor re? fused to permit the police to assist in the search until the city attorney is consult? ed, and for fear a riot would be brought on. The Sheriff now offers to execute original warrant provided no constable goes with him. No search yet. More. Wire instructions. J. B. Workman. Columbia, S. C, October 8, 1894.?To J. D. Gilreath, Sheriff: If you do not execute search warrant against Mark will have to report it to General Assem? bly and ask your removal. j B. R. Tillman, Governor. Columbia, S. C, October 8, 1894-5 p. m. You may refuse to do your duty and aid the whiskey sellers, but unless I am mistaken the Legislature will make you regret it. The constables must be pro? tected and assisted and must see that search is thoroughly made. B. R. Tillman, Governor. Greenville, October 8,1S94?To Gov? ernor B. R. Tillman, Columbia, S. C.: I do not refuse to execute search war? rant, but under the excitement and cir? cumstances it will not do for constables to accompany. I can execute warrant without trouble. Constables refuse to al? low me to go alone. Mrs. Edel is in a delicate state and is very much excited and under treatment of physicians. N. D. Gilreath, Sheriff. Greenville, S. C, October 8, 1894? 6.30 p. m.?To Goverdor B. R. Tillman : Sheriff refuses to serve warrant With Constables accompanying him. Mayor refuses assistance of police, on the ground that an attempt to execute the warrant by the Constables, and Mrs. Edel in the house and in two months of confinement, would cause open resistance and a riot. It is the opinion of some of our best citizens that if warrants are to be executed without the assistance of the Sheriff cr police the Constables will;need other force to protect them. Strict guard is kept over the premises. J. W. Gray. And so the situation stands to-night. KUIfld his Son by Mistake. Birmingham, Ala., Oct. 7.?Charles Martin, justice of the peace, shot and fatally wounded his twenty-year-old son last night on one of the most prominent streets of the city. The father was drink? ing heavily and the son was leading him home when a stranger came up and striking the father, knocked him down, saying he resented an old insult. The son pulled a pistol and fired at the stran? ger, when the father jumped up and grabbing the son, thinking he was the stranger, shot him twice, once in the breast and the other time in the left arm. The stranger escaped. The father is wild with grief. mm t^-mm Train Wrecked in Georgia. Atlanta, Oct. 7.?Passenger train No, 25. of the Atlanta and West Point road, which left Atlanta at 5:25 o'clook this morning, tumbled from the high trestle over Osanappa Creek, a few miles beyond West Point, and seven persons were bad? ly injured. News of the accident was immediately tolegraphed to this city and before 11 o'clock to-day, a special train was sent to the scene of the wreck with fur surgeons from Atlanta. The wrecking train at once set to work to clear the track, which was not completed until just before 11 o'clock to-night. None of the persons on the train were killed outright, but one or two may die, The injured are: It. J. Yaugban, conductor on a con? struction train, wno was a passengor on No. 35, badly cut and bruised. W. B. Keenan, a Charlotte drummer, cut over left eye and leg hurt. D. Cunningham, New Orleans, hip hurt and right hand injured. Unknown white man, who cannot tell who he is, fatally injured. Several others were more or less hurt. ?

The youngest convict in Kentucky is Lon Warren, lie burglarized a ?tore near White Hill a few months since. Warren is perhaps tbo youngest peni? tentiary subject in Kentucky. He is only fourteen. Two years ago ho was tried in the Madison circuit court for horse steal? ing, but, on account of his tender years, was acquitted. He has been a natural thief ever since large enough to walk and talk. ? They find at Chicago that between 25,00.0 and 30,000 residents of the city will be subjected to tho Federal income tax, and the Government will reap an annual revenue from them of nearly ?2,000,000 if the tax is fully collected. There are said to be twenty-nine men in the city worth abovo ?3,000,000 each, forty-ono worth about ?2,000,000 each, and one hundred and thirty-sovon plain million? aires. ? It is estimated that the California vintage this year will amount to not more than eighteen million gallons, which is considerably below the average. The grape crop suffered much from the drought of August. In some localities it dried up the juice, and in others so in? creased the sugar that many grapes in? tended to be made into dry wine will uavo to be converted into sweet varieties or distilled into brandy. ? A young man of Winchester, Ky., Eaid a visit to a young lady with whom e was in love and while getting out of his buggy two suspender buttons on his trousers gave way. To prevent embar? rassment a couple of matches were sub? stituted for tbe treacherous buttons and all went well, until, by friction against the back of theohair, tbe matches became ignited. A conflagration was narrowly averted, and the young man is not over his fright yet. ? Nine persons out of every ten with a cinder or any foreign substance in the eye will instantly begin to rub the eye with one hand while hunting for their handkerchief wi th the other. They may, and sometimes do, remove tbo offending cinder, but more frequently they rub until the oye becomes inflamed, bind a handkerchief around the head and go to bed. This is all wrong. The better way is not to rub tbe aye with the cinder in it at all, but rub the other eye as vigorously as you like. ? There used to be one marriage law for whites and another for negroes in Delaware, and perhaps there is still, for Delaware changes slowly, and her Con? stitution still contains the words "free white male," or their equivalent. Mar? riage licenses were required of whites, and a curious bond for tbe mainte tenance of the children that might come of the union, but nothing of the kind was re? quired of slaves, and for years after the abolition of slavery negroes married without a license. ? At Durham, N. C, Mrs. Bettie Tur? ner, employed a negro girl as a nurse. This nurse has been attending protracted meetings and decided that she was good enough to join the church, and so last Sunday was the day appointed for her baptism. Something happened, however, tbat prevented being baptized, and Mrs. Turner's daughter saw her Sund>;y hav? ing on a pair of shoes that looked much like her own, so she went home and in? vestigated the matter and found not only her shoes gono but some of her dresses and other wearing apparel also. Upon being questioned, it was found that the girl had stolen thorn to bo baptized iu. ? At Tampa, Fla., a week ago a party of young people went bathing. It was a breezy moonlight night. After a refresh? ing bath one of the young ladies retired to bor room to dress, when she found something missing. She dressed hur? riedly, and on leaving her dressing room found the missing article of clothing, which had blown .out the window. The entire party were hurrying to catch the train, and having no place to secrete it, she wadded it into a little ball and asked her escort to carry her hankerchief iu his pocket. He dropped it in without look? ing at it. The party missed the train and stopped to lunch by moonlight. While chatting and eating the young man had occasion to use his handkerchief. All unsuspecting, he drew out tbe one tbat bad been given him and displayed to the full view of the crowd?a silk shirt. The roar of laughter which followed comple? ted bis discomfiture and quite over? whelmed the lady with confusion. It Should Be in Every House. J.

If he tells you that trade has, been so dnll that he has lost money for over ayear, never doubt it, for perhaps you know the reason. If he tells you the Ten Cent Store is making money, and never has a dull sea? son, never doubt it, but don't tell him why.
