candidacy its utterances indicated a
very strong desire to see him elected.
The Register has a perfect right to
support Earle or Pope or anybody it
chooses, but in doing so, it should
not pretend the "hands off policy"
when it is not hands off. A news
paper that is looked upon as the Re
form organ should not be neutral in
a fight like this; it should be for or
againbt Evans or Earle. of cours- we
will uot dignify Duncan with the con
sideration of being acaudidate,beca use
we believe that his candidacy is a
fake movement on the part of a few
men who have a purpose in wanting
the governor harassed.
Who got tbe commissions? is a
daily query from such newspapers
as the News and Courier and the
State, but neither one of them have
dared to charge the governor with
corruption. They have published his
explanation and still they cry "who
got the commissions? This question
seems to be their campaign cry,
and Duncan with parrot-like imita
tion is repeating it at every meeting.
If these newspapers want a motto for
the campaign we will give them the
right to use ours, "turnias loo-si/bu
Ren-or-bustques coattailirum" and
they can place it on the Senatorial
banner of their favorite candidate
Judge Joseph H. Earle.
When Ben Tillman was a candidate
for the Senate his enemies attempted
to be-fuddle the people by insinuating
that he stole money in the bond deal.
They pressed their insinuations so
far that he was forced to procure
certificates from the banks at Colum
bia and the clerk of court at Edge
field to prove that he had been slan
dered. When the charge was first
t, some weak-kneed Reform
willing to give ear to the
d they did then as they are
w withJohn GaryEvans,besi
ai1 said that "where there is
smoke there must be fire.
Readers, that principle will not
work, for if it did no man that ever
did any active work for the Reform
cause could ever hope to get beyond
the reach of the venomous tongue of
slanderous political enemies. We
have heard Governor Evan's expla
nation of his connection with the
bond tratsaction twice,and have read
it once and we fail to see where in
the slightest he places hi mself in a
suspicious position. When he was a
candidate for governor the bond
transaction was fresh, why did not
his enemies come forward then with
a charge; they certainly knew as
much then as they know now. Is
there a wvhite man in this State who
honestly believes it is wrong for a
lawyer to represent his client in a
case in which his State who he is
serving has not onte cent of interest.
This is Governor Evan's position; his
client has money locked up by an in
junction in a Baltimore court; the
State has no interest in it whatever,
if Governor Evan's client looses, the
State gets nothing and if his client
gains the suit the State gets nothing.
Why? simply because the State long
before injunction and before John
Gary Evans becarnn governor re
ceived its entire money as stipulated
in its contracot with the bond syndi
cate. As far as the State is concerned
it would not matter if the commis
sions now enjoined in Baltimore were
taken out in the street and set on
fire; the fight there is between the
brokers and the syndicate, with the
State clean out of it, not even a quiet
looker-on in Venice. The enemies
of Governor Evans are getting quite
sick of trying to defeat him on the
bond question, and now they are be
ginning to rake over the entire life of
the man to find s->metbing that will
cause the people to break away from
him. They have turned the earth to
defeat Ben Tillman and failed, and
now it wvill afford them a little satis
faction to kill his able lieutenant.
The campaign meeting at Marion
last Saturday wvas the largest yet
hld. We were present and it was
a noticable fact that the Marion peo
pe appeared intent listeners to the
speeches; they had heard so much
about the "bond deal" that they
wanted to hear it from the parties
making the charge and from the
party who stands charged.
Another cause of interest was the
Congressional race. It had been
announced that Hon. Johu L. Mc
Laurin would be opposed by Col. W.
D. Evans, and it was expected to be
a bitter fight. Many a man went to
Marion for no other purpose than to
hear John McLaurin wade into his
opponent; for it was known that on
account of matters the people of the
district are not interested in, IMc
Laurin had made some mortal
enemies among the politicians in that
county. McLaurin kncwing where
the opposition were located got his
artillery iu shape and went there
fully prepared to shell thenm out of
their hiding places. Fortunately,
however, Hon. WV. D. Evans with.
drewv from the fight, which left Mc
Lauriu master of the situation with
not a single opponent. He therefore
was forced by his magnanimous spirit
to forgive his enemies and to take
down his guns from the political
ramparts.
The withdrawal of Colonel Evans
we think was highly proper and un
der the circumstances patriotic. Had

Who ever heard of a candidate
making his canvass by distributing a
anonymously signed circular. G
Walt Whitman is the candidate whc
is doing his very thing. We were
-on a train with him last Saturday
night andsaw him throwing his cir
clars out of the window just as a
faker would distribute an advertise
ment for some quack nostrum.
General W. H. Ellerbe, although
ot an orator, his manly speeches tc
the people are winning them to him
by the thousands, We honestly be
lieve 138 will run away ahead of any
candidate now before the people.
Every where we have been Ellerbe
seems to be solid. The people have
not forgotton the noble utterances
ron Ellerbe when defeated two years
ago by Governor Evans. They said
then that Ellerbe would be Evan's
scessor and they meant what they
said as is evidenced everywhere.
If you want to know the winners
in the State campaign just look at the
head of our editorial column. Every
one of our standard bearers are tak
ing with the people which proves the
people to be newspaper readers: they
kep tip with the records of our pub
lic men and are therefore well quali
fled to-make a selection. The ticket
at the head of our editorial columr
is made up of men, every one oi
whom have a good clean record, and
if the future is to be judged by the
past they are a set of men who are
ealous of the good nam& of the State
The "Marlboro' Democrat" won
dered what the Register and the
Times would say about the candi
dacy of Judge Earle, it says, "Won
der what the Register and 'Dear Ap
pelt' woukl say now that a judge
w. ants to run for another office whilsi
hholding one? We guess the reply
would be: 'It is not our ox this time."
As a mind reader the Marlboro
Democrat, as far as we are concerned
is a flat failure,and if it read our edi
torial of last week it will feel like
crawling behind Railroa Commis
sioner Evans' barn and kick itsel:
ffr trying to judge others by its
own standard. Our Pee Dee friend
will always find the Times consistani
and it will further find that we say
just what we believe to be right. N<
man or set of men control this paper
we are as independant as a wood
sawyer, but at the same time we
stand by a friend until that friend
proves unworthy of our support. The
Register can answer for itself, we are
not the keeper of its conscience, nox
its editorial policy, but we will say
tat it has not as yet taken a decided
stand mn favor of the representative
of the Reform cause in the Senatorial
fight. It assumes to be neutral, but
S initedtrial announcingt Earle'a
necessarily have been a bitter stirg
gle, because it would have been a
personal campaign; the result woul
have been a victory for Mc
Laurin with Evans's friends so em
bittered that the- fueing caou: .:ever
have been effaced,auil1he Ref,-n: cause
would have been the gret sair
er; under the circutustanices we coin
mend the course of Col. Evans in
withdrawing from the Coun'iessional
race at this time, and we believe that
be was prompted by his good wishes
for the Reforw cause.
T'1he Senatorial iht was then the
main thing attracting attention at
the Marion meeting and wheN the
people saw that Duncan's "mountain
labored-aud- brough t- forth- a-mouse
policy," they, because disgusted with
him and a number of Conservatives
admitted to the writer that Duncan's
candidacy is "a chesnut pulling" one.
They think as do many others, that
he is employed by enemies to go
about over the State to fly-blow the
governor; that he has promised to
make startling exposures from stump
to sturmp, but they come not. If
Duncan has anything on the gover
nor which makes him guilty of cor
ruption why has he not brought it
out as promised. At the Marion
meeting the governor gave him a fine
opportunity when he said, "any man
who would go about waking insinua
tions from day to day without proof,
is a dirty cur and a liar." Duncan
need not act as a phonograph for
Governor Evans's enemies by trying
to create suspicion with repe ating
after the State and Newsand Courier
"who got the commissious?" The
people read, and have read the gov
ernor's explanation and from place
to place; they are expressing their
satisfaction by giving him a Warm
welcome and giving Dancan the
"marble heart."
Duncan started in Manning with a
speech in which he was going to
show the governor up. He was go
ing to prove that the governor got
rich in a most mysterious manuner,
even if he had to tell all about his
On deal, recently made in the pur
chase of ten thousand acres of land.
We have no idea how he raised the
money to buy this land, but it is
suggested that Duncan may be hol
lering wolf to keep the hounds off of
the scent of somebody else. Why
did the governor's message give of
fense to certain State officers Who
were to be removed from the board
of control? The governor gave his
reasons for wanting the dispensary
out of the hands of State officials
Has Duncan's candidacy anything to
do with his father-in-law Colonel
Tompkin's displeasure at the gover
nor's action? If there is corruption
in the "bond deal," out with it, all ye
that know it, and if there are com
mission and rebates * ie dispensary
business, let it come to light. Get
the proof, theu make the charges and
if the proof is convincing the people
will demand that the guilty ones be
punished. It is unfortunate that the
State executive committee did not
give a longer time for State candi
dates to file pledges, had they done
so, things in our opinion would not
be in the condition they are in now.
We believe the Secretary of State,
Duncan's father-in-lawv, would have
a strong man opposing him and so
wvould all the rest of the candidates
now running unopposea.
There is a remedy for this evil, if
it is an evil; the convention which
adopted the constitution can be re
convened as it only took recess, and
if the necessity arises it will be re
convened, and the doors opened for
new caudidates. If cor-ruption is
proven, the convention must be as
sembled as soon as possible. The
people will not be content to vote for
a man who has been proven corrupt
and they will demand that the con
stitution be so amended as to opeu
the doors for pledges before the pri
mary closes.
- Our visit to Marion was exceeding
ly pleasant; the people showed us
their; openhearted ness, we wvere
highly entertained and would have
been delighted had our business per
mitted us to have remained in beau
tiful and historic Marion severatl days
longer.

It i 0.r purpi]u l il l ills issue to,
give a short sketch of man's work
in forcign) fields, gathered larglV
froimz ILe "iMissionary Review of the
World."
Tie firSt unmarrid woman was
seit by the church to foreign fields in
thc year 1820; iu 188:' there were
oly 15; but by the cnd of the year
18,4 the number had risen to 160.
There are now 107. In 20 years the
number of female teachers increased
from 407 to 81)2.
Shall women be commissioned to
preach and baptize? is a question
uc agziltated to-day. We think
not.
Since 1.67 the gifts of the women
of the ',uthern Bapti.t churches
have stcadily increasel from $17,000
to -45,129 last year.
The womnln of the congregational
church gave last year -95,558 and in
the inhterlor to about *65,000, a total
loss from the preceding year of about
'10,000.
According to the official report
there are to-day no less than GS dea
coness mother houses in various
countries with 10,412 sisters and
4,003 probationaries laboring at
3,611 localities. More than $2,000,
000 are spent aunnually in carrying on
this labor of love.
The coliverted Iudian women of
South Dakota during the past seven
years have avera'ed *2,000 a year er
a total of sli,00.
All around] our churches multitudes
are perishing for such words of love
and sVmpathy as the women of the
church can and ought to speak. Men
are not often reached through their
heads, but through their hearts, and
women know the most direct chan
ud to the human heaut.
The Lord ha, wonderfully quali
fied women to go into the homes of
the people nu 1 sit down by the tire
side and talk of Jesus and heaven.
They are more skilled and more ger.,
tle in introducing the subject of re
ligion than men, and this spirit cf
love and tenderness of manner gives
them much the advantage iii missitn
work. Ruth, the ideal woman, was a
gleaner in the field. Why so many
idlers in the harvest field to-day ?
When the cro s of Jesus touches a
dead soul it springs into niw life,
and the presence uf this new life of
spirituality is the true test of Chris
Ii -i':
one of the noblest acts of any
young woman is to forsake home and
friends and kindred and take her life
in her hand and go to an unknown
foreign land to tell the story of Jesus.
She who has that heroic faith, and
makcs ereat sacrifice for Jesus and
precious souls b~comes at once great.
-Brother and Sister League ot
South Carolina are doing a grand and
noble work, for in the regions beyond
where no sound of the blessed gospel
hias ever been heard mav God's rich
est biessings iest upon themz both,
and amid the dark and discouraging
hours thatt will come to them, may
they have ever the presence of the
Blesseud 52irit to comifort and en
lighen.
We some timecs feel that the great
est cross in this life io bear is the
cross of leaving hiome and all the
scenes of youthful memories and with
the cross of Jesus follow him on into
the "regions beyond." Heaven is by
the wvay of the cross.
There are thousands iln our
churches who are loading themselves
down with sham crosses, who hang
them in their ears and about their
necks but who refuse the real cross
of the Lord Jesus with its self-denial
and its crucjixion.- It is possible
sometimes to enter into solemn mock
ery in the sight of heaven.
Reev. G.. P. Bostiek, a returned mis
sionary will be in Manning one Sun
riyin this mouthI and tell us about
mission work in China.
All sinners and infidels respect an
honest, earnest, faithful Christian
nman or wowae.
Christ ianity is one of tile greatest
human levelers. It knows no rich..
no poor. None are so rich that they
do not ne'ed salvation and none to
p)oor and low-f :dlen and covered with
the leprosy of sin and the filth of so
ciety -that the arms of Divine Mercy
may inot reach down to the depthI of
their degreiation:1 and lift them up to
be hirs n of God and joint heirs with
Christ Jesus. Christian wvo:neni are
(God's angels for the accomplishing
of this great work.
Manv a time tile tears have
streamned dowvn the cheeks of hard
coed meni. degraded and lest to lhon
or and noble manhood as their minds
Ilashed back to the lime of their in
nocent chidhood through the influ
ence of a few simple words spoken by
an earnest Christian wvoman.

in the Institute hall next Sunday
morning on the snbject of "influence."
