FACE THE MUSIC. Along tiiistiiue of year, nml especial ly of a year ?ike thc present one, the straggle between honesty and dis honesty begins in the hearts of ninny people, There are so mai? good ex cuses for not paying what we owe, now that paying time has come. It is so much easier to dodge or put oil' credi tors than to take thc hard earned and scanty supply of money and pay ?ip. In fact the temptation is not confined to those who can barely or not quite make huckle and tongue meet. It spreads like an infection, along with the excuse. A.. who is in comfortable circumstances, being unable to collect from H., who is unable to pay, makes that a reason for refusing to settle Iiis own debt to C. So it goes. It i.s the truth that nothing is harder to do than to face a man you owe and eau not pay. Many a man who would march bravely to almost certain death will dodge and shrink and run away like a coward rather than lace his creditor, and when cornered will whine and lie and make promises he knows he cannot keep and does not intend to keep. The straightforward, manly, honest way is always the best. Seek your creditor instead ot' making him chase you and having you feel like au escaped .j ail bird or a criminal afraid of detec tion. Tell him tho whole, direct, hon est truth and make tho best arrange ments you can. It will make him respect you and make you respect yourself and feel better. The poorer you aro the more important your char acter is to you. It is youl only capital. Aside from everything else and ignor ing all higher and less practical con siderations, remember that this is not likely to bo your last year ou earth and that it is likely that you will bo in trouble some dny when a good reputa tion will secure friends for you, while abad one will deprive you of them when they aro needed; and reputation follows a man around the world and elinga to him wherever ho goes. Pay up, no matter if it takes your lustred, lt will be better for you in the end. If you can pay and won't you are dishonest. That, is the Hat truth of it and you know it. Von can't squirm around it. No matter how hard it may be, you havo no right to make it hard for some other man by holding back from him what belongs to him. You have used his stuft', his money cr his labor or whatever it was. Ile trusted to your honesty and if you willfully disappoint him you are dis honest. The fact that others may havo wronged you gives you no excuse for wronging somebody else. Anyhow, face your creditor like u man. Do the best fer him you possibly cnn. Above all, don't leave him in the lurch nnd then go and spend what cash you have with somebody else. If you owe a man and can't pay him, tho 'rust ou can do is to help him all you can y throwing all the money you cnn control in his way. The census returns of 1900 were given out at Washington last week, and they show that there are 70,205,220 people in the United States-an increase of 18? *000,000since 1800. South Carolinahns a population of 1,340,Jil 2-a gain of 180,103. Tho excellence of tho agricultural schools, colleges and experiment sta tions of the United States is command ing wide attention. A striking bit of proof to this effect is that the Govern ment of the Argentine Republic has sent to this country fifty of its young men to profit by what we thus have provided. An agricultural writer, commenting on this, regards it as un fortunate that wo have room for these young men. "Every faculty of our agricultural colleges should be taxed to the utmost with un attendance of young mon nnd women from the farms of tho United States." The State Fair in Columbia last week was one of the largest and best ever held in tho history of the State Agricultural and Mechanical Society, and everybody who feels any interest in the success of the organization is moro than plcnscd at the results. In every department the exhibits were more numerous and varied and of bet ter quality thon those of any previous Fair. Wo spent Thursday and n por tion of Friday at the Fair, and the crowd in r.tiendnnce was generally re garded as the largest ever neeii in Co lumbia. In fact, tho grand old capital city was packed and jammed with peo ple who had ec mu from every section of the State to greet old friends and see thc sights, and it was the best natured crowd we have ever seen assembled on any occasion. Everybody seemed to be in a good humor and wearing their happiest smiles. The citizens of Columbia manifested more interest than ever before in the Fair, and provided for the comfort and convenience of their thousands of visitors exceedingly well. Many of them threw open their homes and entertained their friends in royal style. On the Fair grounds and in the streets at night there were plenty of miniKumi'iM H foi i im v?n??j?n. Colum bia is the most centrally located city /in tho State, is easily reached by thc railroads from every section of the State, and is the proper place to hold the State Fair. Ir Columbia's citizens will only go a little deeper into their pockets every year and exercise a little moro energy, they can make the State Fair a big success nnd, instead of run ning it only four days, keep it open ten days. MCKINLEY ELECTED! Terrille Struggle it: all (he Doubtful States -Thc Republicans Success ful in Nearly all or Them Light Vote In Sooth Carolina. Tim ejection 'passed ott'very quietly 1 in this section. Very little interest I WUK manifested in it and a light vote was polled. There were only 241 votes oast in thia city for State and County otliccs, and only 8 of them were against tho proposed constitutional amend ments. In tho Federal election Bryan $18 votes, McKinley 17,)ami Woolley, the prohibition nominee, 1. The Re publican candidato for Congress recei ved ll vott'B. The vote polled through out the County will bo about one-half of tho registered voto, and it is prob able that the vote will he. about the annie proportion throughout the State. Unmistakable indications from re- | turns from non-partisan sources show McKinley's re-election, though lilyan's vote will he much larger than it was four years ago. Thc weather was fair throughout the country, and the vote iii the Ninth, East and West is the largest ever [lolled. I ??ot s arc reported in Cloorado and Indiana and a number of men hilled anil wounded. The latest telegraph bulletins this morning put thc electoral vote down as follows: McKinley-California, ?; Connecticut. (5; Delaware, :); Illinois, 34; Indiana, 15; Iowa, 13; Maine, ti; Maryland, 8; Mas sachusetts, 15; Michigan, 14; Minnesota, 9; New Hampshire, 4; Now Jersey, 10; New York, 'M; North Dakota, :?; Ohio, 2JJ; Pennsylvania, ?12; Rhode Island, 4; Vermont, 4; West Virginia, <>; Wiscon sin, 12; Wyoming, ?J.-Total, 251). Hryan: Alabama ll; Arkansas8; Col orado, 1; Florida, 4; Georgia, lil; Louis ina, 8; Mississippi, 1?; Missouri, IT; Mon tana, North Carolina, lt; South Car olina, it; Tennessee, 12; Texas, 15; Utah, :5; Virginia, 12. Total, 131). Unreported: Idaho, Kansas 10; Ken tucky 13; Nebraskas; Nevada 8; Ore gon 4; South Dakota !; Washington 4. Total li). If all of tho unreported States should tnru out ns Democratic, a highly im probable contingency, it would not chango the result. Tho lifty-aeventh Congress seems to bc Republican by a substantial work ing majority. Actual work on tho grounds of the South Carolina Interstate and West Indian Exposition is about to bo started in Charleston. Arrangements for this have bcon put on foot and a lino is being mapped out for tho tracks of thc Southern Railway, which will be laid to thu grounds from tho city. The present plan is to have the corner stone laid in December during tho Charles ton carnival, and nt the time when the American League of Municipalities will hold its annual convention there. Elaborate ceremonies will mark tho laying of tho corner stone, and it is ex pected that a great crowd will bo present. Tho Winnsboro Neica and Herald is surely correct when it say? tho utter ances of papers so disreputable as the New York ?Sun can not affect thc fame of Gen. Robert E. Lee, and indeed if his name should bo omitted from the "Hall of Fame" his name would not lose its greatness. The greatness of Robert E. Lee is fixed. It docs not need a "Hall of Fame" to establish it. The so-called "Hall of Famr" will amount to nothing nuyway. Tho names selected show thnt it is pecu liarly sectional, and posteiity will note this when they read the true histories of this country. Why A Large Army is Wanted. NEW YoitK, November 1.-Governor Stone, of Missouri, who is in chnrge of tho New York branch of tho National Democratic headquarters, gave out the following statement to-day: "Governor Roosevelt and other Re publican lenders and Republican news papers are criticising Mr. Brynn for denouncing the scheme of the Adminis tration to fasten a large standing army on tho country, and especially for say ing that it was intended to quarter tho I army near largo cities and to uso it to overawe workingmen. Nevertheless Mr. Bryan is right. "Senator Hawley, of Connecticut, is a Republican United States Senator of the Brahmin cast and stands high in the councils of his party. Ile is chair man of thc Senate committee on mili tary affaire and in the Senate he had charge ot* tho bill increasing the army and made a strong speech in favor of it. On March 8, 1800, Senator Hawley also made a speech before tho Connecticut Legislature, and in tho speech, among other things, ho said: 'And then among other things that great countries must think of aro the wild, unreasoning in surrections and mobs, lt was a wiso thing for tho merchants of Chicago to give a tract of land to thc National Government, who fortitled it and it is now called Fort Sheridan. We havo heard of disturbances in Chicago. Wo hope, howover, that wo shall never I have any ngain, but we know tho best way not to have them is to bo prepared for them. So I Bay wo shall need a largo army to stand back of municipal authority, In tho last named resort, if a singlo company of blue coats marches annum iho coiner with ?heir steady 1 and solemn steps, thc mob disperses, because they know they aro men who i shoot when they aro ordered to. lt is , simply a business with them. No Gov ernment is free from the possibility of resorting to force.' " I-m im - - A man marries woman for a mate; a woman ruarme a man for a master. - A waU resembles a fish when it is scaled. Wild g?csoare reported on th?; .Sa vannah river. This is considered un in fallible sign by some of the approach of cold weather. - Tho first cotton oil mill in this State was built by David lt. Williams near Society Hill, Darlington County, in 1820. - Twenty-two years ago Larkin Helton and his wife, who resided two miles from Dahlonega, had a quarrel and separated. The wife moved off about ?.> miles from Dahlonega and the time they had seen each other until Tuesdav afternoon, when Mrs. Helton and her youngest son, who was only 8 years old when they left here, came to the city. She had written to him some time ago that if he was willing she would come und live with him. It was agreeable, and he went to work build ing a house near town, no ono knowing what for, until the happy couple met last Tuesday afternoon.-Dahlonega {(?a.) Nuggett.
