The first hale of this year's cotton crop was sold in Texas on the ISth in stant. It was donated to GOT. Sayres for the benefit of the flood sufferers, and was sold for $75. The central committee in charge of the Gen. Wade Hampton building fund has bought a beautiful lot in Columbia for $1,500 on which to build the home for the gallant old hero. The work of erecting the building will begin in a short time.__ Kansas City has raised $50,000 to give for the next national democratic con vention. This money goes to the cam paign, fund. Ct?c?g*o will have to go higher this year or lose the conven tion. Denver, Omaha and Pittsburg all want and will put up for it. The Georgia State authorities began "war on the Oil Trust last week, by seizing 10,000 barrels of impure oil. Tests have shown that three-fourths of the oil sent to that State for sale falls below the 120 degrees fire test and is extremely explosive. The Georgia people are resolved to^straighten the trust. In South Carolina there is, we believe, no direct law protecting the people against the sale of inferior oil. b That an American policy of imperi alism and conquest in the far East is likely to reach an appalling cost finan cially, as well as in its inevitable sacri fice of American blood and principle, is indicated in the official Treasury fig ures showinjg that the effort to restore and maintain order in the Philippines has been continued thus far at an av erage daily expenditure of $800,000. How long will the people of the United States stand such a useless extrava gance of both blood and money ? t A convention of the wheat glowers of Georgia was held in Macon last week, and much good is expected from the meeting. The Greenwood papers suggest that a similar convention of the wheat growers of South ' Caroliua should be held in that town, and we heartily second the suggestion. Such .?gathering, we are sure, "would be a benefit to the farming interests of the State. Oui farmers can produce alt the wheat 1:hey need, and they should be nrged to sow larger crops of it. The South seems to be having a par ticularly hard timo just at present, for, in addition ito the disastrous Hoods of ? Texas, a plague bas appeared in Mis sissippi, in the form of myriads of grasshoppers, which are devouring . crops hy the acre. So many complaints have been sent to the Department of Agriculture in Washington from far mers who are suffering from the rava ges of these insects that a special agent has been sent to Vicksburg, near which the greatest dam? ge has been done. The Protestare ministers of Marshall town, Ia., have formed a sermon trust. The State Board which controls penal and charitable institutions has made a schedule rate of $3 which it will pay for sermons preached in institutions nuder its government. The m i ?vsteria I union has reached the conclusion thai the rate is too low, and its. members have agreed that they will not preach for less thaii $5 per sermon. Whether the board will import cheaper preach ers, or whether it will paytLe price demanded by the combination, remains to be seen. That the Democratic party should be preparing for a thoroughly ?organized and clearly defined attack upon the trust'evil, a course in which it will be upheld by the people, is due solely to the logic of circumstances. Within the past year the growth of the trusts has been unparalleled in extent and all-embracing in the variety of com mercial and industrial fields monopo lized. The records of the State of New Jersey are filled, page by page, with the listing of trusts brought into being under the accommodating laws of that commonwealth. The combination of capital thus affected reaches an aggre gate of billions of dollars. Farmers in this section of country will be interested in tiie important part corn is to play in the American exhibit of the Paris Exposition next year. Corn is to be pushed, and the rest of the world is to become acquainted with its virtues, its use as a food, its value, its nutritiousness, audits palatableness. If we can get the millions of Europe to eating our corn the south and west will be the beneficiaries, of course, the people of Europe can never know the delights of roasting ears, of corn pud ding, of the appetizing dishes the thrif ty housewife makes front green corn, but they can be introduced to the use of cornmeal and to canned corn, ?md if their tastes are not vitiated they wiH like the new food. - mm . m The State Normal School for teachers at Rock Hill closed its session last week, and it was an eminent success. There were about 400 teachers from all sec tions of the State in attendance. The ctass-room instruction by competent professors, lectures by educational leaders, intellectual attrition in the daily converse and communion of teachers with each other, a season of refined relaxation-these and such as these have, been the attractions of the occasion. I fc has been an experience of rest in work rather than absolute rest from work on the i?art of a. class of porkers who deserve honorable men tion and hearty recognition in their labors for the rising generation, winch means their labors for the future of Church and State. All honor to the teachers of the country! Anything that promotes their improvement or con tributes to their usefulness or tends to their needed rest under circumstances of congenial pursuits and enjoyments should ever have the approval and en couragement of our State government. Belton's Bank. A bank was organized at Belton, S. C., July ll, with Mr. R. A. Lewis as President and Capt. Ellison A. Smyth Vice President and Mr. W. E. Greer, Cashier. The bank will be known as "The Bank of Belton,'' and was organ ized with a capital of $50,000. Tjtye Di rectors-are Messrs. R. A. Lewi3, Capt. E. A. Symth, J. T. Rice, Lewis D. Blake, D. A. Geer, W. K. Stringer, W. C. Clinkf-cales, J. Clyde Green and W. X. Cox. A beautiful and convenient building will be erected in the very near future and will be furnished with all the modern furniture necessary for suc cessful bankir.7. The enterprise will, of course, be a great convenience to the public, and that it will succeed there can be but little doubt, since the man agement is to be by wise and discreet business men-men who have already been successful in whatever they have undertaken. The bank expects tobe doing business by September 1. *. LowudesTille Briefs. The farmers of our section are blue. They say that if rain does not come very soon the crops will be almost worthless.

He must thoroughly understand thc science of physical optics, and the measurement and curvature of lenses, and the action of light, its reflection and refraction upon the human eyes, and its workings as perfectly as a watchmaker understands a watch. He must understand opthalmoscopy, reti noscopy and opthalmonietry, and be able to make every objective and sub jective test with accuracy and precis ion, to measure every defect of refrac tive eiror, visual acuity, or muscular imbalance, and to select and adjust lenses which will place his eye in per fect focus. I am devoting special attention to this science, and have prepared myself for expert work. If your eyes trouble you in any way, see me andi will make a careful examination and tell you just what ought to be done. A. C. STRICKLAND. No charge for consultation or advice. HELP US MOVE! WE beg of you for help to move. Thin is no joke. Weare in cold earnest and will prove it to you. Listen while we talk, and then take your turu at speech making : We have again outgrown our panta loon breeches, (as a Dutchman once said,) and we must make dem some more big. Or to make it clear to you, the house in which we do business has become too small to conveniently accommodate our ?argo and growing trade. Hence we have secured a larger and more desirable house on Granite Row. Now, we have not for gotten what a job it was four years ago to lug about nine thousand dollars of stuff up here from our little old place, though the back doors were almost touch' inp. And how much more of a job will it be now for us to move over twenty-five thousand of Goods clear across the Pub lic Square. We don't want to do it, and we ain't agoin' to do it. No, we are just going to make a grab-pile of il, and let our friends and enemies come in and carry it off for OB. To give you an idea of our intentions in the matter-listen : For every ten cents traded with us we will give you a help-move ticket. If you trade 50c. worth you get five help-move tickets, and so on. These tickets entitle the holders to free grabs at the pile, or lc in trade for each ticket held. Nor is that all. Every little boy or gi rl who comes in and boys 25c. worth of Goods, or is with an older person who buys 25c. worth or more, we will give free one Hickory or Boxwood Top or a tiny Doll Baby-either black or white. Nor is this all. To the person trading the greatest number of bills,.amounting to over one dollar, between now and AnguBt -3th, we will give first choice of two German Yokel 1 Clocks-greatly prized as an or nament souvenir. To the person trading the most bills, amounting to over 253, we will give another Clock like above. Only one bill can be recorded in one day. But, Minor, says someone, yon can't afford it.
