Judge A'au Wyck continues to steadily forge ahead in the campaign for Mayor of Greater New York. AVe hope he will be elected. Color prejudice isn't confined to the South. The authorities of Alton, 111., have excluded negroes from the pub lic schools attended by white children. Statistics gathered by the United States Treasury Department show that the tide of emigration is at the lowest point since the Federal Government assumed jurisdiction of the subject in 1882. - m?o m Debs, who engineered ths most dis astrous strike known in the history of the country, is on record as saying in a recent address to the Chicago labor union, that "strikes don't pay." He ought to know. The Democrats of Indianapolis car ried the city election by about 5,000 last week. Ex-President Harrison's precinct showed a large Democratic gain,* as well as other Republican strongholds in the city. News comes from Kansas, the birth place of Populism, that the Populists in 95 of the 106 counties of that State have by formal decree decided to abolish their party autonomy and co operate heartily and in good faith with the Democracy. The- Seaboard Air* Line Railway Company ha.s cut its passenger rates 33* per ceut., to go into effect Octo ber 25. This, it is believed, will in augurate another rate war between the Seaboard Air Line and the Southern, similar to that of a year ago. Judge Aldrich had occasion at Lau rens last week to rule upon the quali fications of jurors under the new con stitution. He held that a person over 65 years is disqualified from jury service and that age is not a "privi lege to plead" as under the "old law." J Though the election is many months off, yet the Congresgional contest is already growing, warm. Besides Messrs. Aiken and Latimer, George Johnstone, of Newberry, and D. K. Norris, of this ounty, are spoken of as having positively determined to make the rase. The French people are going wild over President Faure's success in forming an alliance with Russia. They are talking of making himr presi dent for life. It looks as though Re publican government will be dealt a death blow - by that , impulsive and ex citable race of people. ? mt Justice Field of the Supreme Court of the United States has tendered his resignation to take effect ou December 1, and it has been accepted by the President. Mr. Field was commis sioned 'as Justice of the Supreme Court by President Lincoln in 1863, and has served continuously ever since. He is the only surviving member of the Court commissioned by President Lincoln. Although the loss of life in the fever-stricken section of the South is most distressing, the cost of the con tagion to business is assuming an as pect that causes even graver concern. It estimated that in New Orleans alone the loss will be $25,000,000, while the loss in o.ther directions and the cost of maintaining the quaran tine will run the total up to ?38,000, 000. People in more favored sections may well extend their sympathy to the people of the scourge-stricken sec tion. The Savannah (Ga.) Press emits a note of encouragement for the farm ers. It says: "Europe has been flood ed with such exaggerated,estimates of the expected yield of cotton this year, while the yellow fever and the war scare have teen worked for all they are worth by foreign speculators who want io buy the staple cheap. When ihe reaction coraes there will doubt less be a scramble to buy on a rising market, and the stream of gold set ting naturally toward our shores will give a new impetus to all interests. With this year the terms of several of the members of the judiciary of the State expire. Those who shall retire from the bench unless the Legislature shall see fit to re-elect them, are Chief Justice Mclver of the State Su preme Court, and these Circuit Judges: .Judge Benct, of the First Circuit, Judge Wjtherspoon, of the Sixth Circuit, Judge Buchanan, of the Third Circuit, and Judge Watts, of the Fourth Circuit. Already there is much talk in political circles as to who will be candidates for these places on the bench, and it is note worthy that all the Circuit Judges, save Judge Wjtherspoon, whose terms expire, arc those who changed their places of residence in order to be eligible when tho judiciary was reor ganized. So far as Chief Justice Mc Iver is concerned, no one is yet rained as a candidate to oppose him. It is generally thought that he will be re elected. Judge AVithcrspoon an nounced some time ago that he will retire and would not stand for# re-elec tion. T?' Postmaster General Gary is cor rectly reported lie intends to make the establishment of the postal banking system in the United States one of the leading features of his administra tion during the next three years. For several months past the Postmas ter General has made a careful study of the system in its various phases, and is strongly convinced that such a system is needed in the United States. <;I am in favor of it," says the Post master General, "because I believe it will confer great benefit upon those who live in out-of-the-way places where they are deprived of banking facilities. If put into practical opera tion it will bring out millions of dol lars that are now hoarded away in chimneys, stockings or stoves, and will give thousands of people a more tangible interest in the government." Undoubtedly the system has much to recommend it. In other countries, such as Great Britain, France, Belgi um and Holland, its success has been pronounced and the most gratifying results have accrued from it. At the approaching session of Congress it is understood that a measure, providing for the establishment of the postal banking system in the United States on a basis similar to that of Great Britain, will be introduced by Senator William E. Mason, of Illinois, and that its enactment is definitely as sured. Sunday Singing Conventions. Mr. Editor: I write to ask ?b it not time that something should be said, and some action taken, abont Sunday Sing ing Conventions, or gatherings? Good Christian men and women favor and patronize th?m, but it is believed they do so without due consideration. The Sab bath day should be strictly kept holy. ''Remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy" is a plain and positive command. It sbould be used alone for sacred and holy purposes, such as preaching the gospel, administering the ordinances of the Church, holding prayer meetings, and instructing the yonth in the Scrip tures with the view of the^r becoming "wise unto salvation." No regular Church organization, in its business meetings, uses the day in any other way, as Associations, Presbyteries, Confer ences, etc. Why should a Singing Con vention be an exception? Butit is said that at these meetings the Sabbath is de voted to a praise service. Bot does not every one know that the leading object is to teach and practice music? And is it not also known that the singing is not ac companied with the spirit of prayer and earnest devotion, except, perhaps, by a fsw who may endeavor to do so? These Conventions draw large, and often ir reverent, crowds from a considerable dis tance around, and tha day is spent moro like a picnic than anything else. How often was the question asked, awhile back, after ono of these meetings, Did you attend the Sunday picnic at-? Again, these Conventions, on the holy Sabbath day, rob the different Churches around of their usual congregations, and thereby weaken their influence and use fulness. The writer recently worshipped with a sistBr Church, and was much surprised at the small congregation present. Tho reason was there was a singing not far off, and the people had gone there. So the preacher had to preach the gospel, which is the power alone of God unto salvation, to only a few hearers. Not long since the j colored people had a big singing on Sun I day at one of their Churches; and judging by the crowds that passed along one single road it must have been a huge af fair, equal to, if not greater, than an As sociation or a Campmeeting. * After a careful observation of years it is no longer a question whether the evils of these Sunday gatherings do not greatly exceed the good. On pretty much the same ground the writer does not favor 'Children's Day" on the Sabbath, except, where in a quiet way, one Sunday ser vice of the Chnrch in a year are devoted to the children?the preaching, praying, singing, etc. Now, let it be fully understood that this scribe is not in the least opposed to Singing Conventions and Children's Day, but highly in favor of both, bnt for the sake of that "day the Lord calls His own," and commands ub to strictly keep, let them be held on week days alone. Years ago the Saluda Baptist Association wisely loft out Sunday in it? sessions. Some District Conferences of the M. E. Church, South, are now doing the samo thing. The writer has for a long time advocated the same course in campmeetings. Observer. Union Meeting. Union Meeting, District No. 2, Saluda Association, will caeet at Cedar Grove Baptist Church on Saturday, October 30, 1897, at 11 o'clock a. m.

Evans cn the Stump, and Calls on Kim for Proof. Mr. W. A. Xeni, Superin tendon t of tho State Penitentiary gave the following communication to the daily papers of the State last Saturday: On the 2Gth day of August last Ex Governor John Gary Evans in his cam paign speech at Kingstreo made ? of tho following language: '"Last year, while I was governor, I had to send ?eal to the Keeley Instituto because ho became in capable of attending to his bnsiness. In stead ot being the superintendent of the Penitentiary ho should ba dressed in stripes aud put to work as a convict." Ho also said at Chester and elsewhere all over South Carolina last summer during the campaign on the street cornors, rail way trains and hotel lobbies, that ho sent Bill Neal to the Keeley Instituto for drunkanness and telegraphed T. .?. Cun ningham to come to Columbia and put hi n in charge of the Penitentiary for one month. Air. Editor, I very much dislike to make public my private homo affairs, but many of my friends insist that 1 should do so in justice to myself and family. I have delayed making public this statement, that tho smoke of the political battle may clear away, with tho hop? of a calm, cool and deliberato con sideration of what I may say. I deny that Mr. Evans sent mo to the Keeley Institute or that he knew any thing about my entering or necessity for going, until the evening before. I sent for him and told him of my purpose, as the Governor of the State I felt it my duty 1 to inform him. Mr. Editor, I did take 1 treatment at the Keeley Institute for mor ' phine habit contracted in 1891, at the ? earnest solicitation of my wife and phy I sicians, Drs. Duckett, Orr and Pope. I ! did not take treatment for tho whiskey habit, am glad to say that I have never used whiskey to excess in my life and have never been drunk since I arrived at the age of maturity. I fought the morphine habit for more than four years with all fhe manhood and will power possible to command, but at last was forced to take scientific treat ment to save myself from utter ruin and destruction. I wa3 thoroughly cured in 30 days, have no desire for the drug or bad effects left, am now a sound man mentally and physically. The ex-Gov ernor and would-be United States Sena tor states publicly that I should be wear ing convict stripes. I could, Mr. Editor, make the earne statement as to his excel lency, and could doubtless get many hun dred men in South Carolina to agree with me, but would that be manly ' to slander him without proof? I defy his excellency to place his finger upon one act of mine, either public or private, that would warrant the use of the vile, slanderous remarks. He was Governor of the 8tate for two yearj, I am sorry to say while I was Superintendent of the Stato penitentiary, and as Gover nor he was ex-officio chairman under the law of tho board of directors of the peni tentiary, and if he know anything that was wrong connected with my public duties ho should have said sq then, and I demand that ho specify now,or bo brand ed asi a slanderous liar by tho good people of tho State. Below please publish the affidavits of a few of my friends to sub stantiate what 1 have stated above. Let tho people bathe judges as to who have spoken falsely. W. A. Nioau Following is a list of affidavits which fully corroborate the above in every par ticular. Thev are from T. J. Cunning ham, D. H. Russell, J. P. Duckett, M. D., J. E. Breazeale, J. M. Sullivan, L. D. HarriB, George E. Prince, Dr. S. M. Orr. In Mem?ri?m. On the fifth day of October, 1897, Lewis MahafTey, the six-months-old son of Mr. and Mre. T. C. Banister, of Crayton, was snatched by death's angel from the arms of his parents almost without warning. At sunset on the fourth the bright little boy was well, cheerful and full of life all that we could wish?but suddenly he was seized with cholera infantum, and ere the sun arose on the fifth bis spirit had taken its everlasting flight. On April the sixth God gave these parents two little ones to love and care for and to be 3 joy in the household. Oh, what a pleasure this little boy and girl have been. But, oh! how sad that they must so soon be separated. Grieve not, fond parents, for little Lewis has only gone be fore. God knows what is best and does ail things well. The striken family have the sympathies ot the entire community. The remains were interred at Bethany on the following day, the funeral services having been conducted by Rev. M. Mo Gee.

Cold weather is approaching, and a fire early these mornings is very pleasant. Everyone is hustling to get their cotton out, but the price it is now bringing is very discouraging to the farmers. Some think it is labor almost for nothing. Miss L. E. Garrison left some days ago for Greenville, where she will go to school.
