John T. Sloan, of Columbia, has been sug gested as a candidate for Lieutenant (ioveruor. Col. Sloan is ii nativo of Pendleton, a lawyer of ability ami largo practice, and has enjoyed an exp?ri ence oi' eight years in the State Senate from Richland County. His many friends throughout th?> section would IM- more than pleased to see him elected to the position. Next month eveiy citizen of the re public will be wait? . ! upon by the cen sus enumeratoi loi information as to where he was horn and why he was horn ?inda whole lot of other things. Cuele .-'.un want.- to know ?ill about each one ol his many subjects and lind mit how they are getting ?dong in the world. The farmer will have more questions asked him than any other man. The enumerator w ill have to be a very patient man if begets all the information w hich his orders require. The policy ol' tho McKinley adminis tration seems to bo to appeal to the belligerent sentiments of the A merman voter and to enlist support by bully methods where all other alternatives fail. It hoped to stampede the country by its "brilliant" defeat of poor, tot tering Spain, but ran against n snag in the Philippines and got stuck amuck in numerous army and navy scandals, so t hat ?i dangerous reaction was threat ening to sweep the party from control. Every true American li?tes a Turk, and no more brilliant move could have been made dian when the administration, after surveying the map and sizing up tho small nation.* it could beat the. hound out of, decided to enforce an old and almost forgotten claim against the Sultan of Turkey for .*90,(MK)! Of course, an ul I hunt um would have to be sent and a fleet of ships, too, hut that would be all. We would have scared the Sultan into submission and there would be torch light processions, artil lery punch and turkey hash to beat the band. It is absolutely essential to the permanence of tho Republican party that we have another war before tho election in November, or most certainly if not war, let us by all means make somebody back down. Thc retirement ot' Mr. A. !>. Wil liams from the editorial stall' of the I Greenville 'iVeiri* is a source of B?IIcero regret to his many friends in South Carolina newspnperdom. Hy his bold and independent, if ill advised, policy, lie has become one of the best known but least influential editors of the State, and built up large clientage of admiring but unsympathetic readers upon a basis of fine-spun sophistry. Mr. Williams is enc of iho3o conserva tive thinkers whose constitution origi nally forbade the indulgence of ex tremes, and so faithfully has ho striven against certain gross extroMes that ne luis unwittingly lost his 'jeerings nnd laid himself open to much criticism hy going to tho very antipodal extreme. The spirit of the press svill certainly suiter after the exit of the brilliant Williams, who was always a good natured, clever fellow, a ad tho frater nity of all factions will unite in ex tending to him best wishes for his future welfare. Prof. W. H. Wallace, of Newberry, will Buceecd Mr. Wil liams as editor of the Ketts. Prof. Wallace is an experienced journalist, having been connected with the New berry Observer for a number of years, and is recognized ns one of the ablest editorial writers ever connected with the State press. If the enthusiastic r?ception which Hichard Carroll was tendered at the hands of the white people of Anderson at the City Hall last Sunday evening is not proof sufficient to convince the most skeptical that the white man has a deep feeling of interest in and con cern for the advancement ol' tho negro, certainly tho added evidence of the liberal and spontaneous offering for this purpose must remove nny further doubts. It is safe to say that Anderson County and city have the most thrifty and peaceable population of negroes of any section of the State, and it is a notable fact that the ratio ol' crime among them ha? decreased in a very marked degree within the last ten years. This condition is duo to the friendly interest manifested in tho negro's welfare by the white man-his overseer, his landlord, his neighbor. There are never any raco conflicts, for there is nothing nt variance between the two. Thc uegro cares nothing for politics; ho recognizes his social status and respects his white frieud as his mental superior. On tho other hand, each is the necessary complement of the other. Negro labor is by for the most satisfactory of any labor yet tried, and while it is far from being entirely satisfactory, there are many hindrances that, nrc being gradually overcome in the negro's development under proper management. The negro in this County is fast learning tho les BOU or economy and frugality, and be comes in that ratio a much moro valua ble and valued citizen. This tribute to Anderson's colored people is but a just one, and to assure them that their white brethren wish them continued advancement and progress. Along this lino and suggested bv tho very ex - ceUent lecture of that earnest and philanthropic negro, it might bo perti nent to suggest that such an institution ? oe Carroll's in Columbia for tho train ' ing of "th? young negro children might bo established here in Anderson. There aro colored people hcr?i amply competent to take charge of such a venturi' and make lt :i means of uplift ing the race. Such Institution? in ne cessible points all over the South will go far toward ameliorating the de gradation at our very doors, for which the Christian world holds us responsi ble. We hope, at no distant day, to see an institution of this kind at every County seat in the South. The negro will help himself if we will only show him how. The overwheling vote by which the Nicaragua Canal bill passed the House last Wednesday was a distinct surprise to the most hopeful supporters of the measure in and out of Congress. It registered most accurately the will of tlie people taken ns a whole in that the House is more representative of the people. While Tm; Ivri.i I.M.I.M I I: wishes that the United States would reserve the right to fortify her property and neutralize it without (he interven tion of loreign nations, ii believes that this government's interests in the mat ter of fortifications will ultimately he fully safe-guarded, lt would seem the part ?d' wisdom, however, lo settle this point al once and lay ?it rest forever the struggle which must inevitably ensue upon the announcement of such intentions. The United States is, how ever, a peaceful nation,and if it adheres to the tenets of its founders and de fenders, it will not need to di? other than protect thc Canal usn great com mercial waterway. If we abandon our dream of empire and stay at home be neath our own roof and the protecting shade of the Monroe doctrine, there will be no clash nor issue demanding the fortification of the Canal except? for the effect of ils mora! inllueme and for the sake of stragetical expediency. The Canal, if built, will bo worth many millions to the .Southern States com mercially, though il might prove ?Usas trous to us in time of war unless the Senate provides for fortifient ions. The Senate, however, is not in favor of for tifying the Canal nor is the President, so that it is expected that thc bill will be pushed through without material alteration al this session of Congress making the Canal a common waterway to nil the ships of the world, friendly or hostile, lt could have been better and it could have been worse. mm . mm m . Again has that audacious and irre pressible "exclusivo franchise/' ques tion elbowed itself into serious but undeserved consideration at the hands of th?'City Council nt its last regular meeting held Tuehday night of last week. Not long suire a certain cor poration sought at their hands an ex clusive franchise for (he term of forty years, which petition tho Council has had the good S'jnso to ignore. Now, the Anderson Telephone Company, w ho already enjoy u very liberal fran chise, beg of tho Council to grant them a monopoly on the telephone business of this city for the term of ten years. They ask that all competing lines be kept out or allowed no further exten sion. In return for this exclusive favoritism, it is not stipulated what beuelits and privileges thc city and its citizens shall receive in return. The presumption is that competition having been eliminated, the service and rates ore quito within the arbitrary discre tion of the Company enjoying exclu sive favors, and those with whom this modern convenience has become a commercial necessity are actually at the mercy of a concern from whoso edict there is no appeal. It doe? not concern tho merits of the case, nor should it affect the judgment, that the ofticers of the Telephone Company aro all high toned gentlemen and tactful business men. No one believes that they would become a party to such un business methods as would demand an advance on telephone rates hero in tho city; but fortified behind au iron-clod exclusive franchise for the term of ten years, there aro none so sanguine ns to hope for even a very small reduction in rates within that period. True, ten years is not a long frnuchise period, yet w ith the rapid development of, the city, coupled with tho improvements and expiring patents und consequent cheapening of telephones, we may lind ourselves at the end of that tiroe very much behind tho march of progress with high telephone rates and an anti quated service. How, then, shall we be compensated for surrendering every right and privilege to one company to the exclusion of all others? Tho Coun cil can not do otherwise than reject the proposition, ns its business judgment will direct? Mother's Little Hoy. A smart little lad down ntGalcshurg, who had been taken to Kansas City, w here he saw and greatly admired the bright uniforms and prompt delivery of mail by the postmen, was seized with tho idea that Galesbnrg should have free mail delivery and he would he the postmnn. So he secretly secured a large bundle of old love letters which had been re ceived from numerous young fellows by his mother in her girlhood days, and he trotted out briskly, leaving a letter at every house in town. Gales burg is enjoying the sweetest bit of gossip that it has in many a long year.

EDITOR: 1 have been asked often to suggest some rule to govern all those that are contending for the pre miums offered by the E-ko-neot-lee Mills, for the best acres of wheat. To keep our neighbors from suspecting one another or unfairness, I will ad vise that they get, say two of their neighbors, when tho wheat is ready to harvest, to come and measure one acre, seventy yards square. Cut and shock the wheat with twelve bundles in a shock, and make a note of the number of shock*; on the acre. Then when the thresher comes haul this wheat and thresh seperate, and see that the meas uring man measures it correctly. Then make a little statement of it with the signatures of the parties who measured the land, and saw the wheat measured, and mail it *o me by August 20th, at which time 1 wish to make good the offer. This r> r^m i ii m that I o5cT fer thc greatest yield of wheat on one acre, is for my customers and those who are going to be when this crop is threshed. I will say further, that it makes no diff?rence te mc who gets the premi ums, but 1 insist that everyone that trys for it, will act in such a fair and open manner that no one will entertain a thought of unfairness. It is not for tho money that we try to get the prize, but it is the honor, and the name of being a good farmer. You point your linger av. a man and say, there is an honest mau and a good farmer. He is just what everybody could be. If everybody would say that about every body, overylmdy would be os good ns he. Tell a man that you don't believo that ho would stoop to do a dirty trick, and there is not one in twenty that will betray your cont?denc-e, ana Wee verco. A. L. WELCH, Proprietor, Anderson, S.O. Advocate please copy. Corner Creek Items Everything is on a boom just now in 1 these parts, Mr. Editor, in the farmers1 I "biz."

Carwile. The crowd was all assembled together by 8 o'clock and wewill just say it was a merry and jolly party of youug people, too. The crowd amused themselves very nicely, enjoying our selves as good as could be, we thought, until 10 o'clock, when, lo, behold tho ' dining room door was swung open and a delicious table of refreshments was there awaiting us. Heing invited in, the jolly crowd assembled around the table, and strawberries-oh, my. they were nice-and several kinds of nice cake. Wi; will say in conclusion that wc ne, er enjoyed ourselves better and wo know the entire crowd did.
