He -is getting too. heavy a. load for the- Republican party to carry jn its ^present distressed condition, and he miist walk the plank. The Democrats have elected their candidates for president every time t^ey.bave gone to the people on the tarj&'aod'tjiev can win on that issue tl$? year and in 1?12 if it is pressed. What is most needed politically throughout the South is a good Dem U| <$pis Orrj J0dpds/45?u OHvUOO c.jrery city that'can support , a news P5^r of its excellence. Whatever tufty be ssaid of its. politics long ago ?*" is now straight as a shingle. The Republican leaders seem dis posed to hold Uncle Joe Cannon re sponsible for the.fine showing the In syr'geu't Republicans made out west ia t,be recent' primaries, and they want to make ? scape goat out of the old gentleman, but he Is cot will ing for the sacrifice. -_i In justice to the News and Courier wc will state that since The Times and Democrat referred to it as being ;uiore of a Republican than a Dem ocratic newspaper, it has plunged editors. We.now take pleasure inj raying that such a charge would be o.ut of place in reference to the [ News and Courier. The .Republican -bosses see the handwriting on 'the wall, and that is the'reason they are so anxious to get. of AWtfeh, .Cannon, B&llinger and ijther buncoe steerers. ' Remov fiig this particular set of 'buccaieeraj as; Senator Tillman called them wilI CO iib good, when others equally as bad or. worse will take'their placeg. The Times and Democrat is the -\oJy county paper in the State that has ^frered:''cush prizes in the boys contest club, and the hoys who nie these prizes must i'ivuish us with a wrjtje UP o.1' they made their corn and a good photograph of them sejbxes..- We want: to let the public! know how ""io corn was cultivated ?U,? what sort of- looking boys | ??h? cultivating. The News and Courier says "that the cocaine evil is spreading with alarming rapidity throughout Char leston is the opinion of many mem bers of the police force and of other citizes conversant with the situa ?tion.'' We believe that many of the outrageous crimes committed by ne groes is caused by the use of cocaine. The habit of using it is rapidly epreading all over i'h'e State. Should the Republicans have a email majority in the next house they would not hesitate a hinute to turn out enough Southern Democrats to giye them a good working majority. Itv therefore behooves the Democrats in .every Congressional district in the South to see to it that they qualify themselves to vote in the general election. This admouition is intend ed especially for the Democrats in this district. The Times and Democrat expects to sit down to the biggest dish of crow the morning after the primary it has over had to partake of, but it Will do so with the best grace it can command. 55ut after Lever is made the standard bearer of the party, we .shall do all we sun to pile up such ?a majori'o for him in the general election thai the Republicans would Jiafe no excuse to turn him out if they wanted to. It has I'een contended that the du ty on lumber is a revenue and not: a-protective duty. 11 that is true.; we wish some one would explain to| us why -he lumber lobby at Wash ington spent so much money to have the duty put on. Read what Zach AlcGhee says on the first page about the way 'he lumber lobby spent mo*' ey iff influence legislation, and then ask. yourself If it would spend so! u^uch money jf it did not expect to 30* it again-'out or the people by way] of the lumber.tax. 1 The new census will give the 6quth. more political power than- it ever has had by increasing her num ber of Congressmen and her votes In t*j? electoral college. ;On the 'other hand, many of the distinctive Repub lican Slates will lose political pov/ er or will stand where they are. uith -Jits'condition facing them the Re publicans are apt to muke an effort t??curtai/ the power of the South er or will stand where they are. With ?lea that .the negtoes are not allow ed'; to vote. The Thirty Surviving Generals. If the roll .of the Confederacy's gen [erals should be called today, only thirty would answer "present." One lieutenant general, four major gen erals and twenty-five brigadier gen erals?only these survive from the bouth's gray band of Chieftains, the best and bravest leaders a country ever knew, says the Atlanta Journal. Almost half a centuury has passed since these valiant leaders went home from Appomattox. ' The land they fought for has witnessed a transfor mation. From embers and hardship it has forged its way to. wealth and prosperity. Out of the strength and genius of its own citizenship and the treasure of its fields and hills, it has reared a new civilization. There has arisen the industrial as well as the agricultural south. Great cities have sprung forth, mills are hum ming, factories are roaring, backs have multiplied and the tide of new Commerce' is swelling ? higher every year. The face of the south ha6 chang ed. But the south's heart remains the same that it was yesterday and will be forever. Therefore its noblest affection and its warmest pride goes out to these thirty surviving heroes and the gallant men they lead, who linger with us still, linking the achievements of the present with the glories of the past, holding open yet a little while the last page of the great epic they made, until they, too, like Lee and Jackson and Hampton and the others, shall cross the river. What is true of the generals of the Confederacy is true also of the rank and file of that intrepid army. The old, soldiers are 'following their lead ers into the twilight. At each reun ion some familiar face is missed, j Elach month some time-stained uni-| form of gray is left without its wearer; Another decade or two, and the last soldier of them all '."ill an swer "present" in the camp, beyond the stars. Wheiv i ihe Fool Killer. Senator Heyburn of Idaho, or Hay burner as he is facetiously called in commemoration of his achievements, ha3 broken loose again. This time it was at Wallace, a small town in his own state, but the performance was in line with the previous per formances in Washington, through which he has gained national notori ety. While the band was playing "Dix ie ' at a reception given by his con sjfitluents to Congressman Hamer, Heyburn leaped to his feet and com manded the musicians to stop, "This is a Repuublican meeting," he cried, ' and we want no sucn tunes here." The Augusta Herald hits the nail j on the head when it says narrow j minded and distempered South hater' whose little so.ul would ratMe in a grain of mustard seed, and who ap parently doesn't know that "Dixie" '& a national air, and one of the best known and best liked, as it is one of the most spirited of American nat ional tunes. I H'eybu;~i is the same little ass who protested against the placing of Lee s ?statue in the national statuary hall, and who'fought against the order to allow the Confederate' veterans the '? use of some of the army tents at their reunion in New Orleans. ' 1 How such a creature as Heyburn ;escapes the fool killer from year to :year is a mystery, but .he will be icaught sooner or later. In the mean time some dime museum is misssing a good thing by not exhibitiut him as the champion fool of the universe. m o ? The Greatest Battleship. Great Rriuin has just launched the greatest oattleship afloat. This new fighting monster excels all floating fighting machines in size, speed and armament. It will be -known as the Lion, and is officially described as an armored cruiuser. She is superior to every battleship in the woiid. however, and is the naval marvel of the year. T.he Lion is the first naval vessel to be armed with eight of the new 13.5 incl: guns, which are arranged in four barbettes on the center li of the 3hip. The two middle bai ! bettes are raised so as to permit their guns to be fired over the other barbettes. This system will allow the whoie of the main armament to be trained on either broadside. The guns will fire pyojectiles 0f i,2i>0 pounds a dis tance of 5.000 yards. These projec tiles will penetrate ^2 inch armor. The Lion has a displacem"iit if 26.000 tons. The length is 700 feet and the breadth 88 feet. The horse power of the Lion will be 70,000 and the speed will be thir;" knots. She will be fitted with the Pa su". :. turbines, will have forty-two water tube boilers situaied amidsJhip.) an 1 will be protected with nine inch ar mor plating. The Lion is the fifteenth H-itish Dreadnought to be launched. She was constructed in eighl mo 11 is and cost $10,87 5.000. When will this mad race for naval -uperiority end. j The indications are that it will go cn until the nations that try 10 put up the race will be bankrupt. Th:.i quicker that happen the better. Heard Him by Proxy. An effort is being made ;o create the "impression that The Times and Democrat has. criticised' Mr. Lever without even hearing , hi6 defence.. Such is not the case tor the Times and Democrat had a representative 'a; the meeting here w.h? heard Mr. Le*er and'gave us a synopsis of his speech. The editor expected to at and the meeting himself but he was ?.oil that moifning for the second time after an illness of two months i! more with a terrible carbuncle on his nedk. from iL? efforts of whili ke was' and is ' still suffering, being so weak that he finds it diffi cult to take scarcely any exercise without beromlng very much fa rgued and nervous. For that reason ?he thought it best not to att->id the meeting. As a matter of fact, how ever, we did not know that Mr. Lev ? r was going to make a defence, as ' liiB first speech made at Lexington he admitted that he had voted to tax J umber contrary to the Democratic platform and that he had.no apolo gies to make for iL We are free to say that Mr. Lever could .make but one satisfactory defence in reference to his vot?e, and that is for him to exl press regret for it and promise not to sin again in that direction. The Times ad Democrat tries to be fair in all of its criticisms of public men; and is willing to let any three prom inent Democrats, to be named by Mr. LeVer, say whether we are right or wrong in the criticism of Mr. Leve's vote on the lumber question.

A promise of candy pacified them to wait until the older people were through. At the table the chicken was fast disappearing, when the door?which had been suspiciously creaKing for some t:me?was flung open. Two faces glared at the visitors, while two childish voices ' shouted in unison: "Go ahead?that's right. Eat It all up, hogs!" A Poor Motto.

At a fashionable wedding in a southern city where the contracting parties were a wealthy widower and a handsome young lady, a faithful old servant, who had lived with the- first wife all her married life, was report ing the festivities confidentially the next mc'-ning to a neighbor. When she finished a fellow-servant asked: "Is he going to take a bridal tour?" The old woman looked startled and then glancing around to see that no one was near, whispered: "Well, I don't know e/ he will take a bridele to her if she gets cantankerous?but he sure did take a strap to the other one."

Used Cuti cura Soap and Ointment Four Weeks. Scalp Perfectly Clear. Hair Began to Grow Again and Now Has Beautiful, Long Hair. "When my little daughter was about five years old, she was taken with the measles. A few weeks after the measles were gone, she began to have a sevpre scalp humor. It itched so that she would scratch the whole day, until the blood came. We had a doctor and tried a gpa&.many . other remedies, but nothing helped. Her hair all fell out and the scalp itself had an un pleasant odor. "After we had tried all the other remedies, my wife told me to try the Cuticura Remedies. We bought one cake of Suticura Soap and one box of Cuticura intment. We used the Cuticura Rem edies according to directions and in about three or four weeks her scalp was perfectly clear of the terrible humor. Her hair began-to grow again and now she has beautiful, long hair. Since that time I- hare recommended the Cuticura Remedies to other people and they also had success. Ohas.
