Lieutenant Governor McSweeney, representing the State, delivered an address of welcome to the veterans last week in Charleston, which placed him among the foremost orators on that occasion. While the Governor did not mention it in his speech, it is not improper for us to state that upon the ground where he delivered his speech he often walked to and from his work when a boy. Governor McSweeney was not born with a silver spoon in his mouth, and from his early boy hood he entered the battle of life as a bread-winner. His education was received in the school of experience where so many of our greatest men received theirs. Early in life he was forced to earn his support, and many a cold, bleak morning, across the lot where now stands Charleston's grand auditorium, and where M. B. Mc Sweeney, in the name of the State, eloquently extended a welcome to the survivors of the "Lost Cause," did he, barefooted and hungry, hasten to his labor to earn a pittance and an experience which has stood by him to this day and which makes him ap preciate the struggles of a people. McSweeney's life and experience ought to be written and studied by the youth of the State; in it they will learn that a man can make him self, he can be the architect of his own fortune, and it is not necessary to be labeled with a long line of dis tinguished ancestry, to rise. In the life of McSweeney they will see that by close attention, energy and integ rity the old saw that "you can't keep a working man down" is a truism. With such a man as Governor of the State the people would have an exec utive who started at the bottom round of the ladder of life, and, by his own efforts, went to the top. His experi ence places him in touch with the people's wants and needs, and by be ing one of them, their interests are his inteiests, and he would be the people's Governor. There is a movement on foot to provide by popular subscription, a home for Admiral Dewey. Without disparaging such a movement, we hope the people of this State will first see that the "Hampton Home" is a success. Provide for our own first, and then if we are able we may join in the national movement to honor Dewey. The outlook for peace in the Phil ippines beems better within the past few days Uncle Sam's commissioners are inclined to give an audience to Aguinaldo's representatives, and the fact that Dewey is coming home is an indication that hostilities are about at an end for the present. As things quiet down in .tho Philippines, and the Samoa trouble appears to be over, we see signs of trouble over in Cuba, with regard to the distribution of the $3000,000 given the Cubans by our government. There is a disposition among the Cubans to hold on to their] arms, and it might mean that a strong force will have to be maintained on the Island to keep those we lifted the Spanish yoke from, in subjection. By taking the responsibility of re lieving an oppressed people, the United States had its hands busy. The ninth annual Reunion of the U. C. V.'s has come and gone. Was it a success? Did Charleston do her self proud? Did the people of that historic city sustain their wvorld-re nowned reputation for hospitality? To al. of these questions a truthful answei demands YES. Charleston was in her glory and the visitors from all over the country could not help but be impressed with the cordial at tention. Nowhere, as far we can learn was there any attempt at ex tortion a everywhere was thei e evidences of a sincere welcome. The Reunion was a great undertaking for Charleston, and when it is considered that her white population does not exceed 30,000, she took upon herself a tremendous responsibility to enter tain 30,000 visitois, but she did it. and in a manner to be remembered all over the country. Too much praise cannet be given the commit tees in charge of the entertainment for their work, and the whole coun-i trv is indebted to the News and Cou rierforits nevr-le-up effrts The newspapers all over the State are end oring the plan to build a home for Gen. Wade Hampton by popular subscription, and in many counties contributions have already been made. We hope Clarendon will not lag behind in this matter, and that some one will take charge of the contributions. Every white man in the county should make a donation, matters not how small, and in this way a nice little sum can be raised. We will suggest that some one start the ball in motion in each township, and all contributions received by them be sent to the Bank of Manning, and the same will be acknowledged through the columns of Tnz Tnrs. If every township in the county will raise a few dollars, Clarendon will have a place in the "Hampton Home" she will be proud of. We do not think it necessary to urge the people to contribute for this cause, because we believe they will regard it a privilege to hand in their tokens of regard, and appreciation for the gallant old leader. Let the ladies meet in each township, and appoint committee's to solicit subscriptions, and whatever is to be done let it be done right away; we want to see a rivalry between the townships and the one raising the largest amount will be proclaimed the banner town ship. Deafness Cannot Be Cured by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian tube. When this tube gets inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect bearing, and when it is entirely closed deafness is the result, and unless the inflamation can be taken out and this tube restored to its nor mal condition, hearing will be destroyed 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 cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free. F. J. CHEiEY & Co., Toledo, 0.

An extra session of Congress will be called early in the fall, if public opinion does not object sufficiently to frighten Mr. McKinley out of is suing the call. That is the only rea son it has not been officially announc ed. It has been decided upon, but Mr. McKinley wished to appear to follow a public demand, so the an nounemeut was deferred until his friends, who are now talking extra session in every direction, could try to work up the public demand. Ex-Senator Quay is using the Speakership contest to make votes for his admission to the Senate on the appointment of the Governor of Pennsylvania. That is wvhy the Penn sylvania delegation is unpledged, and hy there is talk of putting up a :ummy Pennsylvania gandidate for Speaker, who the delegation can pre end to support until Quay orders hem to vote for one or the other can idates. Senator Stewart was asked wheth er he favored an extra session of Con ress in September. "No, certainly nt," he replied; "nothing would be ained by it that would be useful. t would simply mean three or four months of talk before they got down o business, instead of three of four eeks, which invariably follows the ssembling of the first session of a ew Congress." Great efforts are being made to ave the Navy Department join in rying to persuade Admiral Dewey to ome home by way of San Francisco, nstead of by way of New York. A ailway company has offered to fur ish him without cost the finest spe cial train that ever crossed the conti ent, to bring him from San Francis o to Washington. The republican oliticians are not disposed to help long this idea at all. They are fraid of Dewey as it is, and they on't know what might happen if he as made the hero of a series of pop tilar ovations in every town between an Francisco and Washington. They vould much' prefer his coming to ew York, trusting the rest to his nodesty. Representative Payne, of New York seems likely to fare badly in the Speakership fight. Senator Platt has romised to force him to withdraw as candidate for Speaker, in favor of Sherman, and it is understood that Ienderson and Hopkins, the two eading Western candidates, have nade a deal whereby their strength vill be combined to nominate the Itrongest of the two, and the one who rails to get the Speakership shall be nade chairman of the Ways and deans Committee and floor leader of he republicans, a position to which ayne was advanced after the death f Mr. Dingley and which he would ike to keep, if he can't get the Speak ~rship. Should Sherman win the bances are that he would have to romise the chairmanship of the-com nittee on Ways and Means to some )ther State. So it looks as though ayne was bound to lose, no matter ho wins. The Robert E.

The site has been donated to the association and prominent South ern women will undertake the task of securing the money to pay for the statue. It seems that one of the ways in which our new possessions are to be Americanized is to allow them to be overflowed by Chinese coolies. The order issued several weeks ago ex tending the laws and regulations gov erning immigration to the United States to all territory under military control, was taken to mean that Chi nese coolies would be excluded from Porto Rico, Cuba and the Philippines. But that didn't suit those who are interested in filling those islands with Chinese and they had pull ebough with the powers that be, to get an official order issued by the war de partment saying that the extension order issued did not include that e: cluding the Chinese. The gall of the beef centractors is second only to that of Secrvary Al ger. It might have been supposed that they would have been more than satisfied to be exonerated from all blame for the bad beef, which the re port of the court of inquiry admits was furnished the soldiers-the re port declaring that the beef was all good when it left the hands of the contractor's agents-but they are not; they are actually demanding the pun ishment of Gen. Miles because he dared, in the interest of the men in the army, to say that the beef was unfit to eat. They are citing the ac tion of the committee of the German Reichstag which favored a bill dis criminating against American meats as proof of the injury done their bus iness by the charges of Gen. Miles. Alger would gladly have Miles pun ished, but Mr. McKinley will hardly consent. He fears that Congress will tackle the beef question anyway, but hopes that a Congressional investiga tion may be escaped by allowing the matter to stand just where it was left by the report of the court of inquiry. If the talk of several indignant Sena tors and Representatives counts for anything, the matter will be heard from in Congress. No Right. To Ugliness. The woman who is lovely in faae. form and temper will always have friends, but one who would be attractive must keep her health. If she is weak, sickly and all run down, she will be nervous and irritable. If she has constipation or kidney trouble, her impure blood will cause pimples, blotches, skin eruption and a wretched complexion. Electric Bitters is the best medicine in the world to regulate stomach, liver and kid neys and to purify the blood, it gives trong nerves, bright eyes, smooth velvety skin, rich complexion.
