For three years Clarendon county has had a teachers' institute, but so far this year we have not heard a word about one. Sumter and Claren don united the last two years, but we have not heard a word this year about the Sumter folks having an in stitute. What is the matter? These institutes were a source of pleasure and profit, and it was generally con ceded that the money was well spent. It was understood, we thought, that the institute would be held in Sumter this year, and that an effort would be .made to get other adjoining counties to unite. We are sorry to see that no steps have been taken this year to -wards holding an inter-county in stitute. OUIL COTTON SEED OIL MILL. Cotton seed oil mills in this State are paying big dividends, and so are cotton factories, cotton gins, etc. Most cotton seed oil mills buy seed from a distance, pay freight on it, and yet make a 'profit. A cotton seed oil mill at Summerton or at Manning could get all the seed it -could use delivered at the mill free of freight charges. Then the farmers of this county could in return get their cotton seed meal at first cost, without the expenses of handling and freight, and at the same time be sure of a pure article of meal. Summer non already has her mill assured, and why should not Manning likewise es tablish one? We have the cap ital; are we lacking in enterprise? It would largely help to build up the town, and our merchants would ob .tain a double dividend. Let us be alive to our interests, and build- a cotton seed oil mill. It will pay. HoW TO WIN NUCCESS. Our people must keep their eyes open, and ever be on the alert to "tUrn an honest penny." As a people we are too wasteful, too negligent of the little things. It has been said that a Connecticut Yankee would get rich Sonwhat a South Carolinian wastes and throws away on his plantation, and we are not sure but there is good ioundation for the assertion. Al though our Southern people are not 'systematic enough, yet we "get along ,t erably well," "make ends meet," and.possibly may get "in easy circum --tances ! in spite of our careless ways, -tankas to our soil and climate. But 'we want to see our.people improving year-by year; their farms becoming -mdre productive and valuable; ~the buildings more comfortable and convenient; the mortgages -on their property removed; and their surroundings such, that all may be said to be "in easy circumstances." - nth our farms we ought to raise our Mies and mules. They can be ised at a nominal cost, and in such a anner that we will feel as if they have :cost us scarcely anything. A g~dcow ought to furnish an- abun datsupply of milk and butter. Our meat and bread and molasses ought should be an unheard of thing to have to buy corn or oats or hay or pes.Every year our land should mi~iore valuable than it was the pre cedingyear. We should understand the fiature of our soil, what kind of crops it will naturally produce best. and what kind of fertilizers it is best toapply for certain crops to produce best-results. We should have it so arrang~ed that in rainy weather, or bad weather, when it is 'not best or practicable to work in the fields, our bands can be profitably employed in sojne: kind of indoor work. We should endeavor to free our lands of t- ps, to reclaim waste and aban 2. aned parts, and to supply ourselves 'with the best and rest improved la -bor-sating tools and machinery. In shrve should endeavor to work our farms in a business-like manner, attentive to all the details, with the high purpose in view of getting the greatest possible good as a result of our labors and attention. The farmer who will thus go at his work will succeed. He will not in his tastes and habits be extravagant; and beyond the peradventure of a "doubt he will shortly become not on ly 'in easy circumstances," but in af fluent circumstances. Any man en dowed with the elementary principles of business, and possessed of a proper amount of push, vim, energy, *will succeed. But for a man to succeed in any busine~ss he has to work,; woRE, WORK. SThat is the key note. He cannot take too much of life's pleasures. He must not expect to keep his hands 'neased in kid gloyws, or- to speid a arepart of his time fishing, or to loaf on the street corner, gossiping ox- talking politics. For all these pleasures and luxuries he must pay. M(an is commanded to work, and in Sno other honorable way can he inake a success of life. THE COTTON BAGGI1NG WAR. The farmers of the South are still on the top side in the jute versi' cot ton bagging war, and cotton bagging 'will be very largely used throughout the South, even though the jute trust should offer it at greatly reduced prices. We sincerely hope the South will find that cotton bagging is a practicable eQvering for cotton, and that we can at least in this one in stance show that a trust is not om nipotent. If we can succeed in this it will be a great blow to the entire trust fraternity. The sugar trust, for~ instance, is robbing the South of thousands of dollars, and that. too, in a product of our own soil. Shall this state ol affairs be allowed to con tinue ? The News and Courier, of Ju ly 9th, has the following to say on this interesting subject: "Several days ago the News and Couriergnblished a statement~ from the Hon. IL. P. Livingstone, president1 of the Georgia Farmers' Alliance, that 'there has been no weakening in Georgia, or any other cotton State, on the cotton bagging question.' We are assured to-day by Gen. E. T. Stackhouse, president of the South Carolina Farmers' Alliance, that the orders for cotton bagging 'will con tjnue to go forard, till they gto ae companied by money received from the sale of the crop now growing,' and that the use of the substitute for jute bagging this year 'will be deter mined by the amount manufactured. There are no signs anywhere of weak ening.' The farmers are thoroughly aroused, and upon no -question have they displayed a more thorough de termination to succeed. 'To make its general adoption a success,' how ever, as Gen. Stackhouse says, 'we must act in harmony with the other Cotton States.' "It has been claimed that it would be cheaper for the farmers to use jute bagging this year. They are not fighting, however, for the crop of 1889 alone, but for the crops of next year and the next and the next. Gen. Stackhouse says that the cotton bag ging 'will be several cents per yard higher than the jute bagging, under Alliance pressure,' and that if the manufacturers and exchanges shall not make 'an equitable adjustment of tare,' the farmers will have to sustain a further loss of seventy cents per bale on cotton packed in cotton bag ging. The difference would be in considerable, in any event, but Mr. Livingstone is confident that they will not lose a cent by the use of the cotton bagging. The question of an equitable allowance of tare on the lighter covering, he says, has been satisfactorily adjusted with New Or leans, New York, and Liverpool ex changes, and if the farmers will main tain their position, all the concessions that they can reasonably demand will be granted in the end. "The Alliance deserves to be con gratulated for the determination with which it has gone into this fight. It is not a question of cotton or jute bagging, but a question of whether the farmers of the Cotton States shall remain dependent upon a monopoly which has shown so little regard for their rights and interests." According to the Manufacturer's Record there are two hundred and thirteen cotton seed oil mills in the South, with an aggregate capital of $20,000,000. It is estimated that 70,000 Ameri cans have gone to Europe this season, and that on the average they will spend not less than $1,000 each, mak ing a total of $70,000,000 as a contri bution to the old world. A Georgia man has invented a sew ing machine to be run automatically as a watch. It will have a spring for the motive power, and its speed can be controlled. A Georgia corpora tion will begin the manufacture of the machines next January. The clergy of Charkston last Sun day preached sermons on the mock ery of sin a danger to the community. The result of recent murder trials was the immediate cause for the de livery of these sermons. The clergy I of Charleston, most of them, do not seem to endorse the McDow verdict. We have received a catilogue of the Sumter Institute. This is one of the most prosperous female colleges in the State. Last year there were in attendance 150 pupils, of whomr ten were from this county. The fac ulty is a strong one, consisting of nine teachers. Send for a catalogue. We see it stated in some papers that McDow, since his acquittal, is and one paper says that he has so an royed her by his efforts to see her that Mrs. Dawson has had to ask for police protection. Surely this can not be true, Gr the men of Charleston would in their righteous indignation rise and smite such a being. But, then, wvhy don't some of the Charles 'ton papers deny it ? Why ? Emory College, at Oxford, Georgia, Iconferred the degree of Doctor of Divinity on Rev. WV. D. Kirkland, ed itor of the Suthernz Christian Advo cate, at its commencement in June. Although Emory College is over a half century old and boasts of its il hustrious alumni by the hundreds, this is but the second time that its honors have fallen upon a preacher of the South Carolina Conference. A few years ago the same degree was conferred upon Rev. (now Bishop) W. W. Duncan. Florence is a lively place. The last issue pf the Florence Times states that there is in contemplation, with a fair promise of success, an ice factory, a tobacco factory, a fertilizer factory, a soap factory, and a cotton seed oil mill. The Centenary, which was published at that place some time back, is to be revised, and will be issued about September 1st. The colored Baptists of the State have de termined to publish a 'paper, and i! will shortly be published. Both these papers will be published by the Florence Times. -The Farmerg' Alliagiee is growing rapidly in this State, new alliances be ing organized every week. It will apparently soon be one of the strong est organizations in the South,.and if union and prosperity are its watch words, it will prove a great blessing to the South. The farmers need some organization, some regular time and place where they can meet togeth er and discuss subjects of interest to them, and where they can relate the results of experiments. Next Satur day is the day appointed for the or ganization of a county alliance for Clarendon county. We hope there will be a large attendance, and an en thusiastic meeting. News from Oakland. OAKLAN>, July 13.-Since the re cent rains the crops have grown very much. In some places the cotton crop was grassy, but with the last week of fine weather the farmers have their crops in a favorable condition. Mrs. D. E. Hodge and Mr. S. J. Mc Faddin have the finest crops in this section. Their corn crop is very fine. They have some corn that will make at least sixty bushels to the acre. The Baptist and Methodist Sunday schools united and had a picnic at the residence of Mrs. S. M. Hfarvin, Fri day, the 12th inst. The Baptist church here is under going repairs. A slight shock of earthquake was felt here last night at 9.50 o'clock. News andI Courier. Complete line of laces, cambric and lawn embroidery. Cambric and lawn flouncing and allovers.

The law com pels the county commissioners to make-such a showing and a similar provision should be made to apply to all officers who have discretionary powers in disposing of public funds. It is only by such precautions that economy in 'the administration of these offices can be assured. But., apart from this, the people have a. right to know just what portion of their money is taken for the public good and just how it is expended. Very few people will take the trouble to examine the books, unless there are special reasons; still when the legisla ture is asked at the next session to make this amendment, it will have the approval of nine out of ten tax-pay ers.-Laurens Advertiser.

These remedies have won their great popularity purely on their merits. J. G. Dinkins & Co., Druggists. Rash Conclusions. "I don't believe Blank is guilty," remarked a gentleman a few days ago in speading of a certain noted crimi nal who was convicted several months ago of murder. "Why do you think so?" he was asked. You have expressed a decided, positive opinion and you should be able to give some reason for your be lief. Do you know anything of the circumstances of the killing? Are you familiar with the evidence that was brought out at the trial? "No," was the frank but rash and injudicious reply, "I don't know any thing whatever about the case but I never will believe that he ought to have been convicted. I can't say why but I believe he is innocent." This is no immaginary conversation, and its bare recital should reveal the mor al intended to be taught by it. "I can't say why but I believe he is in nocent." Miserable twaddle. What is such an opinion worth ? It is not worth the breath expended in giving it expression ! His name is R. J.

He was considered incurable, but two bottles of Swift's Specific brought him out all right. Mr. John King, of Jackson, Miss., says he was cured of rheumatism in his feet and legs by taking Swift's Specific. This was after he had tried many other remedies, both internal and external, and paid many doctor's bills. Swift's Specific has saved me years of untold misery by relieving a par Itial paralysis in my left sidle. T1his Iwas after I had been treated by best physicians in St. Louis and Chicago. jThe trouble was caused by some de rangement of my blood, 'which has been corrected by S. S. S. T. A.

The record of new enterprises in South Carolina was varied on Satur day by the announcement of the or-I ganization in Charleston of a compa ny, with $10,000 capital, to manufac ture envelopes, pasteboard boxes,; paper bags, etc. Another new enterprise of a most interesting nature was reported yes terday. A glass factory will soon be established at Aiken Junction by an Augusta Company, and though our. next door neighbors fairly deserve the credit for founding this new in dustry on South Carolina soil, or sand,'it is pleasant to k-now - that it will be located on this side of the: river because of the conceded superi ority of our native "grit." Thus two novel and promising industries were added to the list of our more familiar manufactures on one day last week, and the attractive hotel on Paris Mountain was completed the same day. Cotton seed oil mills and cot ton factories are going up in every part of the State, as rapidly as bricks can be laid. Altogether, the State presents a bright and busy appear ance for midsummer, and the pros pect brightens beyond !-News. and Courier'.

It is the practice of the boards of county commissioners of a number of the counties in this State, including our own, of employing legal advisers at stated salaries with occasional charges for extra services and at the expense of the several counties creat ing such additional officers. What earthly right have county commissioners to employ legal advis ers at the expense of the taxpayers, any more than the various sheriffs, clerks of court, school commissioners and other county officers of the State have to employ and pay such advisers in the same manner? Why should such difference be al lowed between one set of officials and the others, all of whom receive sala ries for their services, and upon none of whom is the office imposed?-Jlar ion Star.

From where do all the flies come? The question is often asked and sel dom receives as satisfactory an an swer as has been given by a contem porary: The common fly lays more than 150 eggs, and the time from egglay ing to maturity is only about two weeks. Most of us have studied ge ometrical progression. Here we see it illustrated. Suppose one fly com mences to "multiply and replenish the earth" about June 1. June 15, if all lived, would give 150. Suppose sev enty-five of these are females, July 1 would give us, supposing no cruel wasp or other untoward circumstan ces to interfere, 11,250 flies. Suppose 5,625 of these are females, we might have July 15th, 843,720 flies. For fear of bad dreams we will not calculate CONSUMPTION SURELY CURlED.
