Under the call of the county chair man as required by the constitution of the Democratic party, the clubs wi" e semble on Saturday, 28th inst., at ,.ieir respective places of meeting for the purpose of sending delegates to the county convention which assembles at the court house on Monday. 7th day of May. This convention will proceed to elect a county chairman, a member of the State Democratic committee and delegates to the State convention, which assembles in Columbia on the 16th day of May for the purpose of electing a State chairman and delegates to the national convention which meets at Kansas City on the 4th day of July. At present we know of no open fight being made on any particular issue, but we believe that there is a fight going on by the way of a still hunt. We be lieve the Prohibition element is quietly taking advantage of the political calm to capture the party organization, that element of the party relying on the people's indifference more than on the numbers in their own ranks, and if they can succeed in capturing the par ty's machinery they hope thereby to get an advantage. Now, if the people of Clarendon are ready to try the prohibition experiment there is no use in hiding about it-they can come out square and make the is sue. It is a question of opinion solely; as far as we are concerned we do not believe prohibition at all practicable, t.nd were such a law enacted it would amount to very little less than a farce. The country would have liquor flowing in every by-path and drunkenness would increase, and besides, we would not only put upon our statute books a law which amounts to naught'as far as its practicability is concerned, but we bring about a condition which cuts off our revenue and thereby increases taxes. The people are now groaning under the heavy yoke of taxation and our Representatives are faithfully try ing to lighten this burden. How can they do so if the people cut off a very important portion of the revenue? Does it need any calcuktion to show the people where the revenue is cut off and the expense of running the govern ment must go on that an increase in the tax levy is bound to be made to meet this expense? If prohibition would decrease the expenses of the goverrment, then there might be some reasoning in favor of cutting off reve nue, but we do not believe it will de crease the expenses of the government one cent, and such a law may make an increase in the expenditures without accomplishing the results hoped for by men who are sincerely working for pro hibition. If the democracy of Clarendon is for prohibition, we know of no better way of indicating such a view than at the coming convention - make the issue. square in the election of a county chairman. The county chairman should by all means represent the wishes of the majority on any public question. We donot believe in any "shilly-shally" policy, and if there is to be a contest on the question of Prohibition or Dis pensary let every delegate enter the convention representing the wishes of a majority of his club and not himself. We have made.a study of the views of the Democrats of this county and un less we are wofully mistaken, it is our opinion that at least 80 per cent of the voters favor a continuance of the dis pensary system-they are satisfied the system has dorne good and is continuing to do so, and -they are not yet ready to plunge the country in a condition of chaos, notwithstanding the sophistries of some good men whose zeal has warped their judgment on this question, and when the issue is made, whether in tne county convention or in the pri mary, the majority holding such views will vote against prohibition. If, in the coming county convention there is an issue made on the questions of Prohibition and Dispensary, do not allow the personal popularity of indi viduals to becloud the issue. Vote for the issue you believe to be the wishes of the club you represent, and not for a man or set of men. To illustrate; if a man is nominated for county chair man, and he favors the continuenice of the dispensary system, matters not how much you like him personally, vote against him if you are representing a club, a majority of the members of which are for prohibition: if you do not, you are misrepresenting the wish es of your constituents and you have abused the confidence reposed in you. Then on the other hand, if your clubs favor the dispensairy system, it :s your duty, and you owe it to the people who have entrusted you to represent them, to vote against a man for county chair man who is for Prohibition. POLITICAL CROOES DOWNED! Those who have kept posted on the trend of political events must be struck with the fight made on United States Senator Morgan of Alabama, and its results. Politicians for severa.! years past conspired to bring about -the de feat of Morgan of Alabama; they went at it systematically and away ahead of his election. The newspapers opposed to him endeavored to make his people believe that he had gone back on the Democratic party, that he was hand-in glove with the McKinley administra tion. They picked out their most pop him, and it was a fight to the finish.. These two men went before the people of Alabama, Morgan handicapped by the methods of his enemies to defeat him while he was at his post in Wash ington, and Johnston with the advan tage of the politicians, and some great newspapers to help his cause. At first it looked as if Morgan might as well' give up the fight, the People were against him-they had been Fchooled! to believe that his independent, course in the Senate was treaebery to lis party, that he had betrayed them to the enemy. and that he had proven ip worthy the trust reposed in him. Senator Morian was a man for the emergency. and when he saw that his oqken, had sutcceeded in planting the .aed of distrust against him, he went to the people and in the face of his accusers unfolded his record, and there put to shame those who had so persistantly misrepresented him. Did the people of Alabama turn from Mor gan? No! When his record was open ed up, they at once saw that their Mor gan in the United States Senate, was not a mere automaton to be manipula ted at the will of a leader, but that he was a man with a vigorous brain, and did his own thinking, and that he had a sufficient amount of will power to do his own acting. The result was that Johnston was badly defeated in his home county, and Morgan carrying every county in the State. Keep this case in mind as we may have a similar experience in South Carolina. The politicians and certain newspapers have been working the Alabama plan on McLaurin, and while he is in Washington attending to his work they have things their own way, but wait, McLaurin like Morgan will get a chance at the people, then things will look different.

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 I812, 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 vie 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 or 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 aLro greatly inflamed and weakened, and they pained mie very much. My blood was im 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 physicianz in the state told me I must die of scrofulous consumption, as Internal abcesses 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 blood purifier and the best medicine in the wide world, both for scrofula and as a spring medicine." This remarkably interesting old lady did not 1ok to be more than sixty, and she repeated several times, "I believe my life was saved by JOHNSTON'S SARSAPARILLA." Dr. W. M. Brockinton, Manning, S. C.
