The Daily Mail has no ambition lo set ui> as an arbiter of fashions in Anderson, but wo want to suggest a fashion to the ladies, and we hope the.v will adopt it. AVc want to respectfully suggest i that the ladies remove their hats in church. The new style hats are very pretty, most of them. They are more than 1 pretty; they are magnificent. They are also large. They obstruct the view. 1 They cut off the landscape, although I some of 1 hem are landscapes in them- I selves. I'lrcy may be likened unto lawns or 1 lower gardens, or the wav- ( ing of the leaf-covered branches in a < thick wood in spring time. , Mnt while these big, wide hats are pretty, I?? si I behind one of them dur- | ing a church service gets to bo mono- % tonous al ter the lirst burst, of ailmira- I tion is nvcr, li is not only a vexation ( to one's spirit, but a great and un- ,] necessary test of one's piety. ] A worshipper in church naturally r wants to see the preacher in the pul- f pit. If we cannot see him we loose s interest in the servico and the ser- ? mon and then we lose our temper, and < that is a thing to be avoided if possi- v> ble and to he deplored forever. j \\ herefore, ladies, we beseech you, ?c remove your hats in church. Let us ' worship in peace, and without, dis- < traction. t And, though you may not believe 5 it. it is nevertheless a fact, that ai1 woman's hair, well arranged1, is prof-'' tier and more pleasing to the eve,!' more cheering to the mind ami morel' comforting to tire heart, than any hat ' : that any milliner ever made.?Auder-if son Daily Mail. j < To all of which we say amen and ' ' amen. j j It is very dillicult (o maintain the j true spirit of worship when in the! temple if you should happen ( ? gel I one of these modern hats in the line! of vision between you and the preacher. Take olT your modern hats ladies, when in church and thus help to promote I lie spirit of worship. Mlany of the sterner sex do not have any too much of it any way. You do not wear them to the opera. 1 hen why not have the same consideration for others in the house of worship. 'Many of the hats this season are very pretty but when one has to try to look through one of them in order to see the preacher they lose much of their charm. Mr. ,Jos. A. McColiouga tliiuks that the reason so many of those who were announced as candidates for the United iStates senate have withdrawn, is tin account of our campaign system, il 1'e says: ''In order to be elected a man must go all over the State in a , mud-slinging campaign, spend lots of money on his expenses, stay away i I rom home for several weeks and do other things very dsagreeable to j the average person. And I lien it is a great risk, .lusi think of how a man 1 would leel it he would stump the i stale and I hen be defeated.'' As to how a man would feel, there i are a great many people in iSouth ( aroliua who might hold an experi- 1 encc meeting and rell Mr. MeOul- ! lough how it feels, but what he says | is very true. .It costs, we should i think, a great deal to canvass th*> I State and except the oil ire of United I folates senator the salary of the Slate officers is so small that unless one has i some other business from which to < draw a living, he can ill-afford to go to the expense. There should be no I mud-slinging in our campaigns, though ( unfortunately there frequently is. It i is true that the primary system has its i disadvantages and yet it is about the I only way by which the candidate can ! become known to the voter and if the ; voter would realize the responsibility of casting a ballot it is really the on- < ly way to get the choice of the peo- < pie. , fu a drive from Newberry to the i railroad bridge over Saluda river a ' few days ago, via the bridge over Lit- i the river, we find a good many of the little bridges across tlie roads in a very dangerous condition. In fact ; "wo had to walk aiuT lead our horse across some of them for (fear he mightget his foot caught and receive injury. A number of the plank on the floor of the approach to the railroad river bridge need to b<> replaced -and in a good many cases there are holes sufficiently large for a horse to got his foot in. iW? mention this eo that thoso "who are in charge of the repairing of thes bridges may look into I he mat (or. Tli ruMii in many places is much wore , an no have over known this road t bo. Supervisor Wicker says lie has (hi week had some of these small bridge repaired. ?

The Southern railway has mad many changes in its passenger selie 'Mies, especially on the main line, hu "i>ly one change has been made on th Columbia and Greenville division, hu thai change seems lo he tending in th wrong direction. The afternoon trai from Columbia, known as number II winch has been passing Newberry a '1.1/ comes one hour and fifteen niinii les earlier, passing here al .'{.07. Wit the train from Greenville passing her al 1..{(), this does not give people wh desire lo do business in Newhorr from Chappells and above but abon one hour and thirty minutes. I'liis change il seems lo us is mad '? the interest of Greenville an Greenwood regardless of* (he interest of Newberry and we cannot see Inn it is to he of benefit lo Columbh I lie schedule as i| was suited Ibis or lion very well. People from hehn Newberry could come here in th morning and have practically half ilay and return home early in the af lernoon or could spend (lie entire da :,ni1 al night. People from to wards Greenville could come lo New herry reaching here at !.:?() j,,?| ),av" Ihiee hours in the city. i 11 >eoius that I his change is a ten [ie-icy to go hack l.> the old schedule vhich made these (rains nioel al New '* '' A 11 I lie chamber of comiuerci ns theinterest of the business peo l>le of Newberry in charge, as we tak< it they have, it would he well to hav.

T( is probabI Inal when (lie fall season begins tha fin adjustment of schedules that wil he satisfactory lo Newberry as wel us other points may be made. Senator Gary, who has been at. hi home in Abbeville, is quoted by th Press and Haimer as follows: "Who asked what lie thought of the dispell sary commission ano Judge Priteli nrd, he said that he thought it unfor innate that the commission instea of going on n hunt for grafters ha not proceeded at once to the settlv mont of the just, clnims against th otftte. most heartily agwj with Sena >o j tor Gary in this expression and \v< 13 thought that the purpose of creating Q the commission was to settle up tin o affairs of the dispensary and nov; pri marily lor the purpose of bringing s criminal prosecutions and if they hat 's gone to work with that oud in view w< believe a satisfactory sottlemvin could have been made long before this and the whole business wound up f Of course, we (To not desire to b< r understood as indicating that graf 0 ters or violators of the law should g< ,1 unpunished but punishments of such cl ii there be such, and the securing oj r evidence against them was not a par . of the duty of the commission as w< a understand it. The attorney general has* had al s the money that he has asked for ant (j all the lawyers that he could need, il c seems, not only from this State bul t from Georgia, but so far very little 1 progress has been made towards the conviction of nny grafters.
