The Grand Jury. in their last pre sentlent, (onlained about the con dition of the county jail, and recoin mended that the question of "Jail" or No Jail" be again submitted to the people. No sane man will deny that Clarendon's jail is a blot upon our civ ilization. and no reasonable man wili say that the people should not be taxed to remove this blot. We hope that our Couinty Democratic Executive com mittee will respect the recommendation of the Grand Jury. by putting a special box at each club to receive an expres sion from the people with regard to the building of the new jail. Some say, that the Representatives should go right ahead and levy the tax without consulting the people, as they will never vote upon themselves any addi tional taxes. We do not agree to this view, for the reason, that the Repre sentatives, are to represent the people and do their bidding. The property of the County belongs to the people, and if any improvements are to be made involving a large outlay of the peo ple's money. and an increase tax. we think it is just. and altogether proper for the people to first be consulted. Representatives have no right what ever to involve the people with addi tional tax-burdens without their con sent. This principal is recognized in the municipal corporations, when it comes to the issuance of bonds for im provements. No city or town can law fully issue bonds without first obtain ing the consent of the tax-payers by a vote at the ballot box, and such a pre caution is wisdom on the part of the law. Were it not for such a provision, a municipal body might enter into"jobs' and issue bonds that would leave a a legacy of debt for generations to come to be taxed. The building of a new jail will necessitate increasing our county tax levy, and if the matter is properly presented to the tax-payers. we believe they will instruct their Rep resentatives to make provisions for the work. but we will state right here. that as far as the Senator is concerned. unless the people do express their wil lingness to be taxed for this purpose Clarendon must. as long~ as he is in the Senate, bear with the constant re proaches of Grand Juries. There is no more detestable trait in the character of a human being. than what is known as bushwhacking. When a man conceals himself from view and hurls missiles at an opponent~it is bush whacking. When a writer. even by in inuendo, maligns and slanders an op ponent, and does not make himself known, it is bushwhacking, and such an one when discovered, is held in con tempt by decent men. It would there fore be placing one's self on a level with such a creature, to consider him of enough importance to drag him from his hiding. but whenever shame drives him out in the open~and he will disclose his identity, then if he will make charges like a true man, instead of sneaking insinuations, we shall dignify him with notice: but until then, the snapping at our heels of a mangy yellow fice. will have first place in our con sideration, as a choice between the two. The indications at present are, that cotton will open at a fairly good price this fall. Thnis seems to be the opinion of men who are engaged in speculation. We have heard that severalof our far mers have signed contracts already for the delivery of their coming crop at seven cents, middling basis. These in dications should not, however, cause our farmers to be too hopeful about big prices, and it certainly should not be an incentive to go into debt to make the staple. It is easy enough to get into debt, if you have the securities to offer, but it is like climbing a greasy pole to get out. If a man has the ready cash on hand, he may take the chances to plant a large crop of cotton; by hav ing this cash, he can lay in his ferti lizers and other supplies at competitive prices, but if he has not the money, then he is forced, if he plants heavily. to mortgage and pay a burdensome rate of interest, fees and other expen ses, and then in some instances he places himself into the hands of con sciousless shylocks, who charge out ragous profits and make their demands so heavy that the yoke is hard to re move. We therefore, caution our readers to beware of the enticing in ducements that allure you into debt, especially if the debt must be secured by a mortgage on your home.your farm, or your property that you must depend on for the maintainance of your family. Clarendon was represented in the Gineral Assembly by four gentle men selected by the white voters o5 the county. These Representatives, with the exception of one, were born and raised in the county, and have lived right here all of there lives. The one who was not born in this county. nas spent the best part of his life with the people of C'larendon, and in the estimatio~n of them, he merited their confidence to such an extent. that they have honored him time- and again with positions of honor and trust. That he has ever been faithful to his trust is '-videnced by the fact, that no one has ever defeated him. For the past two vear's these Representatives have la bored together for their coulnty's good. P~l~l~. A Q jt? j-t'itin.y of the r'ecords made hy Claren don's Representative: will show that the members of the House were always present at their posts of duty. unless prevented by ill ness. iud that when present they in telligently participated in the discus sions. especially were they watchful for the interests of their county. The Sen ator in the two years missed two roll calls: one was caused by a belated train, the other, by his accepting the invita tion to accompany (olonel Bryau tt Charleston. and in that instance. al though having missed the roll call. h reached his post of duty in time to dis cuss and have pa.sed a hill which is of considactble importance to the Pel of this county.. The recoris a publi document. and we invite any man to take the journals of the Senate and House. and compiare them with like record books of those Representatives who preceeded the present delegation, and the verdict will not reflect discredit upon the present delegation. The Senator has two more years te sarve, but the term of his colleague: has expired. If they are to go back tc I the Legislature they must be eleeted this year, and we think it due to then and to the people to say. that it matteri I not whom the people may choose. they will never be able to send to Columbit men who have a more sincere desir to be of help to their constitutents that I the gentlemen who ser$ed them thE past two years. It was the ambitior of each to devise means to reduce our county taxes. This was accomplished t' the extent of one mill, and by som( changes in our county system, whict goes into effect next year, it is theii hope that the income of the county wil be sufticient to reduce the county levN some more.

Sasapailai uerica's Greatest Medicine oney Can Buy SGROFULf RND ITS RWFUL HORRORS CURED BY Johnston's Sarsaparilla QUART BOTTLES. A MOST WONDERFUL CURE. A Grand Old Lady Gives Her Experience. Mrs. Thankful Orilla Hurd lives in the beautiful village of Brighton, Livingston Co., Mich. This venerable and highly respected lady was born in the year 1812, the year of the great war, in Hebron, Washington Co., New York. She came to Michigan in 1840, the year of "Tippecanoe and Tyler too." All her faculties are excellently preserved, and possessing a very re tentive memory, her mind is full of interesting reminiscences of her early life, of the early days of the State of Michigan and the interesting and re markable people she has met, and the stirring events of which she was a wit ness. But nothing in her varied and manifold recollections are more mar velous and worthy of attention than are her experiences in the use of JOHNSTON'S SARSAPARILLA. Mrs. Hurd inherited a tendency and pre disposition to scrofula, that terribly. destructive blood taint which has cursed and is cursing the lives of thousands and marking thousands more as vic tims of the death angel. Transmitted from generation to generation, It is found in neary every family in one form or another. It may make its ap pearance in dreadful running sores, in unsightly swellings in the neck or goitre, or in eruptions of varied forms. Attacking the mucous membrane, It may be known as catarrh in the head, or developing in the lungs it may be, and often is, the prime cause of consumption. Speaking of her case, Mrs. Hurd says: "I was troubled for many years with a bad skin disease. My arms and limbs would break out in a mass of sores, discharging yellow matter. My neck began to swell and became very unsightly in appearance. My body was covered with scrofulous eruptions.. My eyes were alo greatly inflamed and weakened, and they pained me very much. My blood was 13 a very bad condition and my head ached severely at frequent intervals, and I had no appetite. I had sores also in my ears. I was in a miserable condition, I had tried every remedy that had been recom mended, and doctor after doctor had failed. One of the best physicians In the state told me I must dIe of scrofulous consumption, as internal abeesses were beginning to form. I at length was told of Dr. Johnston, of Detroit, and his famous Sarsaparilla. I tried a bottle, more as an experiment than any thing else. as I had no faith in it, and greatly to my agreeable surprise, I began to grow better. You can be sure I kept on taking It I took a great many bottles. But I steadily improved until I became entirely well. All the sores healed up, all the bad symptoms disappeared. I gained perfect health. and I have never been troubled with scrofula since. Of course an old lady of 83 years is not a young woman, but I have had remarkably good health since then, and I firmly believe that JOHNSTON'S SARSAPARILLA is the greatest biood purifier and the best medicine in the wide world, both for scrofula and as a spring medicine." This remarkably interesting old lady did not lok to be more than sixty, and she repeated several times, "I believe my life was saved by JOHNSTON'S SARSAPARILLA." :&nEI XC'EI ALW DRMUG3 COE.awr 3MFXWLOIT, 3 3E Dr. W.
