In the Florence congressional con vention last week a resolution was introduced condemning in very strong terms the action of Governor Rich ardson in appointing so few Tillman men as commissioners of. election, when this faction of the Democratic party is so largely in the majority, and also for having, contrary to the precedent heretofore established, ig nored the Democratic county chair men in making these appointments. The editor of this paper strongly opposed the resolutions and did not muchfvlor the substitute. He rec ognized the fact that Governor Rich ardson was playing a small part in the political arena, and was simply acting as "the ring" dictated. He had a perfect right to make these ap pointments without consultation with any Democrat in the State, and if he chose to insinuate by his partisan ac tion that the Tillman faction of this State were not true and tried Demo crats, and if he did not care to con suit with the recognized heads of the Democracy in the several counties in making his appointments, even if we did consider it small and unworthy the Governor of the commonwealth, et we recognized his right to so act, - and were unwilling that the condem nation of the Democracy of the sixth congressional district should be put upon him. As far as Clarendon is concerned, while he ignored regular Democratic precedent in not consulting with the cumnty chairman, yet, if our informa tion is correct, he did consult with as purea Democrat as lives in the State, and the persons appointed are all good Democrata But in Clarendon county there is not a ghost of a chance of a split: we have no mongrel-inde pendent radicals here: but in other counties, where a split was any way imminent every man appointed, so we are told, is an Anti. It simply shows how bard "the ring" dies, and even when in the last ditch they are still trying to start a mine under the old Democratie bulwarks. But for all this, we have respect for the dignity of the governor's chair, and were unwilling that the conven 'tion should conden~n him. In another column will be found the - 'action of the State convention, and the governor's reply. These resolu tions were iln-timed. The work had been done, and "the ring" would not ~ermit him to undo it. BERKELEY POLITICS. The opening -wedge to split the Democratic log has been driven by S. Poroher Smith, of Berkeley. It was he who rendered valuable service to the Democracy of that county; it was he who led the Democratic forces to -victory, and seized the county govern ment from the hands of a horde of bilack politicins. When this service ~sredered by him the whole State acnwledged his valor, and looked upon S. Porcher Smith as a patriot. The people of Berkeley appreciating his services elected him to one of her most lucrative offces, and he has -served them for years; but as time zDoed on the people concluded to have a change in the management of n~ot only State offiers, but in .some S.indtace county offcers as well, and Berkeley is one of the counties where such a feeling existed. When this feeling presented itself MIt Smith exhibited himself in his true spirit, and because he saw him self about to be invited to step down and out, his patriotism, his love of counryhispolitical principles, are ,trampled under. foot, and he proves 'beyond all doubt that the extent of his love of 'country, patriotism, and Democracy, was the length of his of icial career. This patriot, it is claimed, stands ready to sell his people for a mess of negro votes, and to form a combina tion with the Republican party to de feat the regular Democratic ticket that isto be put before the voters of Berkeley. When Mr. Smith was fightng Tillmanism in his county the New and Courier did everything in its power to aid the Smith faction, but now since this faction has turned out to be independents (and in the language of Wade Hampton "an in dependent is worse than a Radical") the News and ourier is conspicuous ly silent on the conduct of Mr. Smith and-be few destructive co-workers. The News and Courier claims to be a true Democratic paper. It did all in its power to defeat Tillman, but failed. Now they should work ear nestly for the success of the Demo cratic cause. Then, is the News and Courier doing its duty towards the Democracy by closing its eyes to the conduct of a few white men who are about to be kicked out of offce in Berkeley? Why is it that the edit orial columns of that paper are not -directed towards wiping out the split in Berkeley, and electing astraightout true blue Democratic ticket, without any mixture of Brayton-nigger-spleen venting composition? ,The Democratic executive commit tee (Tillman) of Berkeley county has issued an address to the white men of the county, appealing to them in a most earnest manner not to let divis ion enter their ranks. The address is full of patriotic advice, and it to be hoped that it will have the desired ef fect. This isno timefor men toal low petty differences to enter the body politic, as we have an enemy lurking around in our midst ready and anxious to catch at anything that tends to divide us. We hope that the true Democrats of Berkeley will stand to their posts of duty, and frown down any attempt that might be made to gratify the spleen of some diappointed individual. B. R. Tillman has been called the father of the Clemson college, and by a happy coincidence this college will be opened while he is governor of the State. The announcement made by See retary Windom that he would receive bids for the purchase of $16,000,000 4 per cent government bonds, has had a depressing effect on the Northern money market. The State has done honor to herself in nominating Mr. James E. Tindal for Secretary of State. He is one of the ablest, best educated, and most distinguished citizens of the State. Clarendon appreciates the honor. Hon. J. J. Hemphill was yesterday at Rock Hill unanimously re-nomi Lated for congress from the fifth con gressional district. There were thirty nine delegates in the convention, and of this number only nine were op posed to him. The State convention met last Wed nesday, and quietly did its work, ad journing next morning at 6.20, after an all night's session. A full State ticket was nominated, a platform of principles adopted, and a new consti tution adopted. Judge A. C. Haskell was the only bolter, and no one felt aggrieved at his action. It is reported from Republican sources that Mr. Junius H. Evans, editor of the Marion Star, will be a candidate for congressional honors, in opposition to CoL E. T. Stackhouse. Mr. Evans is Edmund H. Deas's can didate, and Deas says that he himsell will not become a candidate this year. Mr. Evans is an Anti Democrat. Col. Earle has taken a very peculiar stand. He has, it is true, been over -whelmingly defeated, but that is only what was expected; and now every true Democrat in the State is amazed not to see him accept his defeat in good faith and counsel unity apd harmony. He does not say he will run on an independent ticket, yet he leaves the gap open for him to do so. A few months ago it was Tillman ism, Mahoneism, and Radicalism are synonymous terms; but it is very strange we have seen no such expres sions the past month. Does it mean that, after all, the Tillmanites are the real Democrats, and that the Antis, "them fellers" in whom all Democratic wisdom is centered, are to be the Ma hones of South Carolina? We have no Mahones in Clarendon, nor will we have any; but how about Sumter, and Florence, and Berkeley, and pos sibly some other counties? Any fac tion that appeals to the negro in this campaign is worse than a Radical-it is Mahoneism. We are very anxious to see the Democracy of Sumter county solidi fied, and we have the assurance of one of the most prominent and influential Antis of that county that he will do all in his power to consummate this effort, and that he believes it perfectly practicable to do so. The action of the State executive committee in or dering an entire reorganization seems to us to be the best and easiest way out of the trouble. We ourselves be lieve the Antis to be right in their claim of having the legal organiza tion, but the convention by a small -majority decided otherwise, and like good Democrats we hope they will yield to the majority even if they be lieve that majority to be wrong. Let a feeling of true patriotism and con servatism rise above any factional feeling, and since the head of the State Democracy says that a reorgan ization is necessary, let there be a re organization. There is nothing to be lost by such a course, and much to be gained--the unifying of the Democ racy of Sumter county, and a healthy influence to be exerted over the whole State. All eyes are upon Sumter. Governor Richardson Refuses to Accede to the Request of the Democratic State Convention. CoLUxBmA, Sep. 15.-Governor Richard son has refused the request of the recent Site convention to recall his appointment of commissioners of election. The answer, dated Saturday, was given out for publica. tion to-day. Following are the resolutions adopted by the convention: -WHEREAS, it is due to our digniti and self-respect as representatives of South Car olna to cherish the glory and fame of her sons as a common hostage, and we shall al ways re.spect and honor those in authority over us, and that no act of ours shall call in question the purity of our motives or ques tion their exalted patriotism, without first laing our complaint before them for due consideration, in order that they may table such action, as will be approved and com mended by the people, therefore be it Resolved, That a special committe of five members of this convention be appointed by the chair to call on Governor J. P. Rich ardson and request his excellency to recall the appointment of election commissioners for the approaching State and federal elec tion, and that he consult the chairmen of the respectivei county executive committees, as has been the custom, before making new appointments. Resolved, further, That this resolution is not intended as a reflection on Governor Richardson or his appointments, but sim ply to call his attention to the fact that the majority faction of the Democratic party is not fairly represented in the board of elec tion commissioners. The committee appointed by Chairman Talbert are H. C. Burn, Darlington; 0. RI. Lowman, Orangeburg; J. L. Williams, Lau rens; Mf. C. Galluchat, Clarendon; J. A. Sligh, Newberry. The Governor's reply is as follows: STATE oF SOUTH CAROousA,) ExEcUTIvE CHAMBEn, Columbia, S. C., Sept. 13, 1890.) Mr. H. C. Burn, Chairman, and others, Society Hill, S. C. Dear Sirs: I have carefully considered the resolutions passed by the late Demo crtic convention, and which I had the honor to receive at your hands, in regard to the recent appointment of commissioners of election in this ftate. I have been forced to the conclusion that neither right nor law would justify the removal of any of these citizens-among the most intelligent and patriotic in the land-without the assign ment of sufficient cause. These appointments were not made until the last day allowed by law, so as to permit of such suggestions and information as might be submitto.3, but they were never proffered, and in the absence of such infor mation and suggestions tae selection of these important officials was made solely with the view of securing for the people the fairest possible expression of their will at the polls. From the high character and intelligence of these appointees, this result, I feel confident, is assured. For the reasons already stated, and be cause it would be an improper use of my authority as governor to remove officers without cause, I am compelled, with the ut most deference and respect for the express ed wish of the convention, to decline to accede to the request of the resolution. I have the honor to be, with great respect, your obedient servant, J. P. RICHARDsoN, Governor. For weak back, chest pains, use a Dr. J. H. McLean's wonderful healing plaster (porus.)

DELIcATE CAKR.-Whites of six eggs, one cup of butter, two cups of sugar, one cup of sweet milk, three cups of flour, and three teaspoonfuls of bak ing powder. CocOANT PiE.-Beat one-half pound of butter and one-half pound of sugar (pulverized) to a cream; then add half a pound of grated cocoanut, stir in the whites of six eggs well beaten, and a wine-glassful of cream. This will make two pies. A SIMPLE PLUM PUDDING.-Pour half a pint of boiling milk over a pint of bread crumbs, and let it get thorough ly cold; stone a pound of raisins, and add a half pound of currants, a table spoonful of butter mixed with a table spoonful of flour, one tablespoonful of sugar, a small teaspoonful of ground cloves, one teaspoonful of nut meg and one teaspoonful of cinna mon, and five eggs, well beaten. The fruit must be floured before mixing. Eat this with any good sauce, but the following sauces are good with it: PUDDIN SAUcE.-Stir to a cream a teacupful of butter, and two cupfuls of sugar; add the grated rind and the juice of a lemon, some grated nutmeg, and enough wine or brandy to flavor. Any other flavoring may be used in stead of the brandy. If a liquid sauce is preferred, boil two-thirds of a pint of water, thicken it with two or three teaspoonfuls of flour mixed smooth with a little water, and add this to the first ingredients. LEMoN PUFF.-Sift one pound ol white powdered sugar, and mix with the grated rind of two lemons; beat the whites of three eggs to a froth, and add to the sugar and grated lem on; whisk together until it is a thickl paste; cut it into pieces, and place upon some white oiled paper; bake on tins in a moderate oven for teu minutes. Swzrs BrrwEEN ME.-There car hardly be a greater folly on the part of a parent than to allow a young child to indulge in sweets betweer meals. The eating of candy or cakes at such times destroys the appetite for wholesome and strength produc. ing food at meal time. The child comes to table and nothing pleases him; he becomes capricious and ex acting, plays with his food, or rejec it entirely, that is will not take any, but craves liquids to allay the thirst produced by-the stuff he has in dulged in. I have seen a lovely boy, apparently in perfect health, come tc table and drink cup after cup of tea, so-called, and not touch a morsel ol food. The mother very innocently remarked: "He's just like that most of his time; he hardly eats anything.' I learned the secret of this craving foi drink instead of food; the little fellow had indulged in a package of sugar. plums injudiciously given to him b3 a friend just before dinner time; he had thereby been cheated out of his dinner. For once this might not hurt him, but done repeatedly one car readily see how much injury the lit tle fellow's digestive organs would sustain, for candy does not contain the elements for producing bone and muscle and blood needed by a'grow. ing child, but it does contain princi ples which cause acidity, and condi tions provocative of verminous disor der. If sweets in the form of cakes or confectionery are ever to be in dulged in by a young child let it be in small quantity and at the close of amaraher than at any other time, for then, the natural appetite being appeased, the craving for much sweet stuff will be lessened, and the harm done in proportion. Cake and candy 6ating should be only occasional very occasional-if a healthful appe tite is to be mnaintained.-Lads'es World. DON'-r Scoiw.--Mothers, don't scold. You can be firm without scolding your children; you can reprove them foi their faults; you can punish them when necessary; but don't get into the habit of perpetually scolding them. It does thenm no good. They soon become so accustomed tu fault-finding and scolding that they pay no attention to it. Or, which of. ten happens, they grow hardened and reckless in consequence of it. Many a naturally good disposition is ruined by constant scolding, and many a child is driven to seek associates be cause there is no peace at home. Mothers, with their many cares and perplexities, often fall into the habit unconsciously; but it is a sad habit for them and for their children. Watch yourselves and don't indulge in this unfortunate and often unin tentional manner of addressing your children. 'Match even the tone of your voice; avid above all watch your hearts, for we have Divine authority for saying that "out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh." Farm and Fireside.

When an infant my body broke out all over with an ercption or rash, which became more aggravated as I grew older. From early childhood until I was grown my family spent a fortune trying to cure me of the dis ease. Every noted physician in our section was tried or consulted. When I came of age I visited Hot Springs, i Ark., and was treated there by the best medical men, but was not bene fited. After that under the advice of a noted specialist, I tried the celebrat ed Clifton Springs, New York, with out any good results. When all things had failed I determined to try S. S. S., and in four months was en- r tirely cured. The terrible eczema was all gone, not a sign left; my gen eral health built up, and I have never had any return of the disease. I have since recommended S. S. S. to a num ber of friends for skin diseases, erup tions, etc., and have never known of a failure to cure. GEo. W. IRwiN, Irwin, Pa.

DEAFNESS CAN'T BE CURED by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and thaL is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the eus tachian tube. When this tube gets inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, deaf ness is the result, and unless the inflamma tion can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be de stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces. We will give one hundred dollars for any case of deafness (caused by catarrh) that we cannot cure by taking Hall's catarrh cure. Send for circulars, free. F. J. CHENEY & CO., Toledo, 0.
