E. G. Sioers. 91S F street. N. W.. Washitnton. D. C. NO TIME-SAVER There are a few newspapers in this State which seem very much worried because Senator McLaurin will persist in refus ing to be frightened by them. The Senator was not sent to the United States Senate by the News and Courier or the Colum bia State, neither is he under obligations to the politicians. He went before the people and stood upon the record he made in Congress, and although the politicians charged him with Republican tendencies at that time, the people endorsed him and he is their representative. He has kept out of the State fights, and attended to the duties the people entrusted him with. McLaurin has not attempted to be a Boss, neither has he per mitted himself bossed, and when his present term has expired and it comes time for him to go before the people again, then, will he give an account of his stewardship, and we believe he will be endorsed by the business element of the State, we believe before two years roll around the people of South Carolina will be convinced that the hue and cry against McLaurin comes from politicians who are only after the office he holds. If McLaurin was a time serving politician he could have shaped his course to win the politicians to him. And in all probability go back to the Senate without opposition. Mc Lairri~n is a statesman who pur poses leaving his impress upon the history of this nation, and when he- voted for the ratifica tion of the peace treaty he did so with a consciousness of do ing what his judgment dicta ted was for the best interests of the people of this country with out stopping to consider what temporary effect poli t i cia ns would make on his constituency a : home. We agree with the Bamberg Herald, that "a certain clique in South Carolina politics have a candidate for the place, and if they can succeed in discrediting Mr. McLaurin's Democracy, so much the better for their man." But are the people of the State going to permit a "certain cli que" to blind them with preju dice against a man whose indep endent course has placed him in a position to be of service to his peopley The politicians endeav or to discredit McLaurin because he has some influence with the departments in Washington, and has so used it that the State of South Carolina is not over run with obnoxious federal officials, and because of this, they charge him with Republican tendencies; if he was content with simply holding his own job, without thought of the people, he would be like some of our other repre resentatives, only known at the departments on pay day. McLaurin however, is serving the people and getting from the government all he can for them. A representative wit-h no influ ence at the seat of government would serve his people better if he stayed at home, and if Mc Laurin was without influence at Washington, the politicians would make capital out of it to win votes against him. We would then hear nothing of "Repub lican tendencies," but the cry would be, "send me, a man is needed who can wield influence with the government." Hooray! Sound the gugag and blow the horn! The Boer war has been ended and London will now go on a wild spree again. Lord Roberts has captured 100 of the remaining Boers. Catarrh Cannot be Cured with LOCAL APPLICAIONS. as ther cannot mach the se-at of the disease. Catarrh is a .otod or constitutional dieae and in order to c-ureit you must take internal remedies. Hall's Catarrh Cure is take-n internally and acts direct -y on the blood and mucous -surfaces Hall-S Catarrh Cure is not a quack medicine.

The regret of the Democrats is not so much because free silver is dead as because they fear that some of the gold Democrats may try to come to its funeral. To Cure A Cold In One Day Take Laxative Bromo Quinine Tab lets. All druggists refund the money if it fails to cure. E. \W. Groves sig nature is on each box. 2-. A 1i rinia judge has decided that a woman can be the head of the house if she foots the bills. The only thing new about this decision is the proviso about footing the bills. When you want. prompt acting little pills that never gripe use DeWitt's Lit tle Early Risers. The R. B. Loryea Drug Store, Isaac M. Loryea, Prop. The Kentucky Republicans have declared not to contest the gubernatorial election in that State, and for the sake of peace the country at large should be happy. The rifle ball arguments used by Kentuckians may be con vincing, but they are not at all pleasant. DeWitt's Witch Hazel Salve will quickly heal the worst burns and scalds and not leave a scar. It can be applied to cuts and raw surfaces with prompt and soothing effect. Use it for piles and skin diseases. Beware of worth less counterfeits. The R. B. Loryea Drug Store, Isaac M. Loryea, Prop. The inaugeration ball on the 4th, of March next, will, it is said, be on a splendid scale, and we expect that some of the Dem ocratic editors who were foremost in their denunciation of McKin ley, will be there, and as near the head of the procession in the grand promenade as they can get. '' I have used Chamberlain's Colic. Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy and find it to be a great medicine." says Mr. E. S. Phipps of Poteau. Ark. "It cured me of bloody flux. I cannot speak too highly of it." This remedy always wins the good opinion. if not praise, of those who use it. The quick cures which it effects even in the most severe cases make it a favorite everywhere. For sale at The R. B. Loryca Drug Store. Isaac M. Loryea. Prop. The Republicans are in full control of the State government in New York, and Boss Platt has a scheme to provide greater New York with a system of State constables, similar to the metro politan police system Charleston had a few years ago. The first thing Gotham's political lunima ries know, they will find them selves pulled for bunco-steering. Both makers and circulators of coun terfeits commit fraud. Honest men will not deceive you into buying worthless counterfeits of DeWitt's Witch Hazel Salve. The original is infallible for curing piles, sores, eczema and all skin diseases. The R. B. Loryea Drug Store, Isaac M. Loryea, Prop. There seems to be no reason for further delay on the Nicarau guan Canal. The Hay-Paunce forte treaty will no doubt be ap proved and the bill can be passed before the new year. The South ern members of Congress who favor this scheme contend that the South will reap wonderful benefits from the opening up of this canal. The Best Prescription for Malaria Chills and Fever is a bottle of Grove's Tasteless Chill TEnic. It is simply iron and Quinine is a gaeless form.-No cure, no pay. Prie~ 50c. The divorce mill unearthed .in New York recently, is the direct result of a practice that has grown up of hearing cases in se cret. Publicity in such cases may be oad for morals but jus tice is a~ded thereby. Fortunate ly for South Carolina no divorces can be granted, which may be a hardship in a few very i -olated cases, but it is a blessing for the general good. Many people worry because they be lieve they have heart disease. The chances are that their hearts are all right but their stomachs are unable to digest food. Kodol Dyspepsia Cure di gests what you eat and prevents the formation of gas which makes the stom ach press against the heart. It will cure every form of digestion. The R. B. Loryea Drug Store, Isaac M. Lor yea, Prop. The war in the Philippines has not ended yet, notwithstanding the predictions that the war would end as soon as the elec tion is over. We believe, how ever, that when Aguinaldo's fol lowers find there is no hope for their independence, they will throw up the sponge, but it will be a long time before the gov ernment will be able to put down the bushwhacking warfare. Since those in control of the purse strings of the country feel secure in having no legislation which will disturb the finances, there ought to be a plentiful supply of money on the market, and borrowers should be able to secure loans for- a less interest than heretofore. Money is cheap at the North, and the class of borrowers in the~ South who are in touch with Northern ienders are to be found in the up-country of this State, and the conIse quence is,that all kinds of indus trial enterprises are constantly being built, and the surrounding countr is bi nbilt up with "Many a Mickle Makes a Muckle." "Line upon line" is the way a building grows. The " Mickle" in this Scotch proverb is something very small, but the " muckle" is something great. one microscopic bacillus makes impure blood, and "muckle quae" (much disease and disaster) follows. Hood's Sarsaparilla cleans the blood as nothing else can. It brings " muckle '' joy at "mickle" cost. Half teaspoonful doses. Pimpies-" Pimples, blackheads and a kind of rash covered my face. A friend advised me to try Hood's Sarsapa rilla. I Have taken three bottles and the pimples are gone." Lizzie Meyerherm, 12 Hunterfly Place, Brooklyn, N. Y. Hood's Pills cure liver ills; the non-irritating and only cathartic to take with hood's Sarsaparilla. The talk of reorganizing the Democratic party breaks out after each National election, but never before has it been so ser iously contemplated. Hereto fore those who favored a reor ganization were among the dis appointed, now there are thous ands of Democrats who are con vinced of the utter futility of hoping for success under the party banner as now organized. The old issues are dead and the practical minds in the Democratic party refuse to camp in a grave yard. The question is, will the South continue to be the under dog? A Village Blacksmith Saved His Little Son's Life. Mr. H. H. Black, the well known village blacksmith at Grahamsville. Sullivan county. N. Y.. says: "Our little son. five years old. has always been subject to croup, andi so bad have the attacks been that we have feared many times that he would die. We have had the doc tor and used many medicines, but Chamber lain's Cough Remedy is now our sole reliance. It seems to dissolve the tough mucus and by giving frequent doses when the croupy symp toms appear we have found that the dreaded croup is cured before it gets settled." There is no danger in giving this remedy for it contains no opium or other injurious drug and may be given as confidently to a babe as to an adult. For sale at The R. b. Loryea Drug Store. Isaac M. Loryea. Prop. We are constantly being asked our opinion about what cotton will do, and of course we know nothing about what course the speculators will permit the price to take, but we are convinced of one thing; that is, the specu lators known in market parlence as the Bulls, have the advantage at present and we look for a de cided advance in price. How long this condition will last we have no idea, but while it does last. those who have cotton on hand had better disposed of it, and not take the chances of a much higher rise, lest they hold on until the Bears burst the bub ble. There is every indication now of an advance, not only in the price of cotton, but every other product which can be con trolled by speculation. We do not believe that supply and de mand figures in this condition; we think it is the deliberate work of speculation, moved like the figures upon a chess board.
