A good way, and the only demo cratic way, to insure complete har mony at St. Louis will be to accept the will of the majority, if this is done by p.il Ucmocrats, thc platform will be a winner, for it wi i i set no ghost? to walking. Wives who love to sit on ?he front porch and smile behind their fan while hubhie swcL.a behind a lawn mower should make certain that he hss adequate life insurance. A mau at Mount Vernon, N. V., dropped dead while thus cutting grass, the other day. The South gave Mr. Hryan prac tically all thc electoral votes he se cured in IMO, and now when the South is trying to drive from the "White House thc worst enemy it ever had there, Mr. Bryan is doing his best to disrupt thc I democratic party at St. Louis. Dr. A. S. Todd, formerly of this city, who haB been connected with the Spartanburg Herald for a year or two, has gone to Manning, S. C., where ho har accepted the position of editor and business manager of The Farmer, a weekly paper published there by thc Manning Pub. Co. Wc wish him much success in his new home. -- . - - 8o far very little interest is mani fested ic the State campaign meetings and very few people are attending them. As none of the candidates for State offices except Railroad Com missioner have aoy opponents this year, it has been suggested that the gtato Ese?utiv? Committee do away 'with the campaign meetings, and we believe the suggestion a good one. Mr. Zaoh Moinee, who for the past twelve month J has been editor of The Spartanburg Herald, has resigned his position to take effect July 1. Ue has sold his stock in thc paper f t Mr. 6. H. Waddell, who is president of the company. Mr. Waddell will con tinue thc management of tho paper. Mr. McGhee haB ably conducted the editorial work of The Herald, and we regret to see him leave the ranks of thc State press. In the general election this Pall the people of this Stata will vote on the important question of biennial ses sions of the Legislature. The hill providing for the same passed both Houses at the last session, and was submitted to the peuple fui ? consti tutional amendmeit. It is the pre dict io o of those wbc profess to follow these things that the measure ?rill be defeated. Th ; people will also vote upon the matter of allowing each County to make its own road law, and on the privilege of allowing the city of Greenville to issue a certain amount bonds. _ The National Republican Conven tion met in Chicago last week, and, according to the pre-arranged program, nominated Theodore Roosevelt for President and Senator C. W. Fair banks, of Indiana, for Vice-President. The platform makes many promises, claims everything good for the Repub lican party, lays all that is evil upon the Democrats and, as usual, hits a blow at the South, on account of the suffrage question. There was very little enthusiasm in the Convention, and many of the delegates left before it finished its business. The State Agricultural and Me chanical Society will hold its meeting at Clemson College this year on the same date as that decided upon for the Formers' Institute-August 9-12. This is known as the summer meeting of the Sooiety, and was held last year at the College for the first time. On account of the interest taken in the institute work, and the chance of se curing reduoed railroad rates, it was deoided to hold the meeting there again and an attendance of about 200 is expeoted. This year the Society will discuss plans for the Greater State Fair. Ti e use of wireless telegraphy has added a new complication in offen sive and defensive movements of a warlike nature on sea and land. Both Russian and Japanese commanders have found this form of communica tion available in frustrating ov for warding strategic attack or retreat, lt has also been serviceable in the quick communication of otherwise un attainable news, carried on tho wings of thc air from the soene of sea hos tilities to neutral stations on land, and theme cabled to the ends of the earth. Evidently " the possibilities inherent in the use of air telegraphy ire of thu gravest future consequence, whether in thc promotion of the arts of peaoe or war. mk ?? i ' ? - It. is unlucky to lose S?3 on Fri day; Illings iou (hight lo Know.

New York, June 25.-The New York Daily News, whioh has recently changed bands, and has come out as a straight Democratic newspaper and is recognized ns the organ of Tam many Hall, will to-morrow print a three-page article advocating George B. McClellan, the present miyor, as nominee of the Democratic party for the Presidency. On account of the paper's policy, knowledge of the pub lication noa coated considerable specu lation in locai political quarters, where it is construed as indicating the begin ning of a strong campaign to nominate McClellan. The News claims McClel lan to be "the one man whose election would mean certain party success. The eyes of the North, East, South I and West are upon him." McClellan's record on most public questions is set forth, repeating speeches delivered while he was in Congress. State Bridges Over the Savannah. if r. H. C. Middleton believes that South Carolina and Georgia should be more effectually united by the building of bridges across the Savannah river between the two States, at regular in tervals, and that they should be con structed and maintained by the gov ernment of the two States. "Now tbut the Georgia eolons are at work,'-' he said yesterday? "I am one who wishes they would tike the initia tive towards holding some kind of a conference with the legislature of South Carolina on the subject. "Here is a large river separating two States, with no way to get across it from the mountains of the seaboard, except by the city bridges of Angosta. This want of bridges hurte the devel ment of the riverside of both States everything running up to the river and ?topping. People living on opposite ?idea of the river do not know each other, though their homes may be in sight; there is no social intercourse be tween them, and no business re'ations. Land is depreciating in value a.ud set tlements made thin in this region of ;ho two States, in many instances the and being the most fertile in the south, because of this social and basi le s s barrier. "The counties aro two small and poor tver to put bridges across the stream, ly putting a bridge or two a year icroas thc river and dividing tho. cost, n a few years thc river would be well nidged between Anderson and Suva li mb, which would cause much improve nont along the riverside of both ?tates. 1 think it is hard to, estimate he damage this unbridged stream does o a large area of territory contiguous ? 0 it ."-Augusta Chronicle, 20 th inst. - Adolph Taocob is untit'i' arrest at I'ort William, Wi nt; i j KV', Manito ba, charged with inccudarisui. ile has confes.sed to burning buildiogt) valued at over ?2,000,000, including thc city hall and others. - Money occasionally makes a fool ol' a man by helping him to break in ti society.
