WHOSE FRIENDS INTERCEDED? It is not right to be silent and permit false impressions to be created: ever since Governor McSwe-eney acted in the matter of the Senatorial resignations, there has been a systematic ef fort made, to make the people believe, that the governor gave way under the importunities of friends of Senator McLaurin. Senator Tillman has been no small factor in trying to create such an impression, and Colonel Wilie Jones the chairman of the Executive committee has remain ed quiet while Tillman virtually. charges the governor with per mitting McLaurin's friends to use him. Now for the facts, Governor McSweeney was about to start for Chicamauga when the resig nations were placed in his-hands, but he declined to act on them until his return: while travel ng he told a confidential friend that he would on arriving home re turn the resignations, but if the Senators insited on resigning he would make appointments to till the places until the General As sembly met. He said nothing about what action he would take to another soul. The Gover:2or arrived in Columbia after mid night on Thursday, and when he reached his office the next morn ing, among the first to call on him was Colonel Wilie Jones, State chairman, who told the governor that he had talked with Tillman the day before, and it would be a misfortune to have a campaign this year: the whole thing was done in passion, and he hoped the resignations would be re turned. Among the governor's other callers was Lieutenant Governor James H. Tiilman who is a nephew of Senator. Tillman. We do not know just what passed between the governor and '-Uncle Bennie's" nephew. but we be lieve if a phonograph had been placed iin position in that oflice at the time,it would havercod ed words like these "Mac don't return those resignations, but you appoint Uncle Bennie, and resign, then as soon as I am sworu in, I will appoint you McLaurin's successor." Then we imagine that Governor Mc Sweeney flatly refused. Before Nephew James had his audience with his Excellency, the writer' had one with Colonel Jones,! whom he found somewhat wor ried over the situation and we agreed, that if possible Governor McSweeney ought not, if he could prevent it, force the people into a primary this year, the Colonel told us that coming down from Asheville such was the general sentiment. He also told us about having talked to Sena tor Tillman. So from this it would seem that Colonel Jones wvho is a warm friend of Senator Tillman, notwithstanding the way he was treated by Tillman' in the convention 1896, after having had a talk with Tillman was very anxious to have the resignations returned, and pre vent the fight between Tillman and McLaurin, for the people's sake. (?) ~ We do not assert that Jones was authorized in his talk with Tillman to plead with the gov ernor, but we do think that Col onel Jones' forgiving spirit prompted him to act as a peace maker. The further fact is, that Con gressman A. C. Latimer who is supposed to be Tillman's favor ite, and is now nestling under Tillman's copper-lined wings, reached Columbia ahead of the! Governor and gave out an interview to the Columbia State, in which he expressed the hope that the governor would return the resignations: from Columbia he went to Charleston and gave out an interview to the same effect and stated, that he too, had seen Tillman. In the face .of these cold facts we think it adamiantine cheek for. McLaurin's opponents to go around making a pi-etense of dis appointment at the governor's action. When Tiliman gave it! out that Governor McSweeney had been influenced by McLau-1 r-in's friends. Colonel Jones would have done himself credit had lie made public his solicitude, and the part as Tiihnau's friend he played in the matter. He' should have broken his clam shell and announced that as the head of the Democratic party of the State lhe appealed to the gov ernor in behalf of the people to spare themi from an uncalled for campaign. This would have put a quietus on the mnisr-epresenta tions of both. Senator McLaurin and Governor McSweeney. OhI but THE TIMES editor, it may beV said was among the governor's callers also, and he is a personal fr-iend of McLaurin. True, we were there, but what we had to say was after our talk with Col onel !Jones who had seen Till an opinion similar to what the colonel had told us he expressed to the governor. The whole truth of the busi ness is, that all this pretense of indignation is the sheerest kind of hypocrisy to make political capital. To use a common ex pression. it is a piece of rag chewing for effect. We believe Governor McSweenev's course was prompted by a high and pat riotic purpose, and we believe those who are abusing him are not so prompted. HOW ABOUT TAMPERING WITH THE PLEDGE? It is gratifying to learn that State Chairman Jones is opposed to ruling MeLaurin out of the primary, and it is extremely gratifying that he gives us the same assurance for Senator Till man, but if our kind-hearted and unanimous friend thinks his magnanimity or generosity will fool anybody, his trolley needs repairs. Colonel Jones is a most excellent gentleman, a man we have a very high regard for, but close confinement in his bank, makes him oblivious to the out side world, therefore his declar ation of opposition to ruling Mc Laurin out amounts to nothing but a toy balloon. No one but an idiot would, in a Democratic convention, offer a resolution to rule a white man out of the pri mary; that is, the resolution would not say so in words, but if the set of political body-snatch ers who will try to control the majority, succeed, they will dig up a corpse, and, to make a man eligible to participate in their organization, they will force him to cuddle the skeleton to his bo som. The Chicago platform was knocked senseless in 1896, drag ged to Kansas City in 1900, where it received its death stroke, and it is now a cold, inanimate corpse, notwithstanding Billy Bryan's heroic efforts to resuscitate it, by pumping hot wind into its nostrils-it is dead, as dead as the Democratic platform upon which Horace Greely stood, But as a means to an end, the body snatchers will make every effort to obtain control of the May con vention. If they succeed, they will perform their shell game in this way. To become eligible for. candi dacy in the primary, a candidate must lay his right hand upon his heart, his left upon a skull and cross bones taken from the Kan sas City corpse, and with eyes uplifted to the portrait which hangs over the speaker's desk in the hall of the House of Repre sentatives, solemnly swear that he corpse has life, and his heart s ov-erflowing with devotion for t. After taking the oath he will e conducted to the Censor eneral who will be within call, and if he approves of the candi ate, he will supply him with a pass. While the pass is being repared the candidate must tand with uncovered head and swear his allegiance to the Cen or-General. Then when ' the :ard of approval is given, the :andidate makes a low curtsy and s taken before the Sexton who dmitted the snatchers into the olitical cemetery where they lug up the Kansas City corpse, md here he planks down his ood American coin as an assess nt fee to become a candidate n an election where free, intelli ent white men are to render a ecision. 1 No, Chairman Jones and Sena or Tillman do not approve of uling McLaurin out of the pri nary, but neither one of them ave put their stamp of disap- < roval on the "damnable doe rine" enunciated in an editorial n the Columbia State, in which t was proposed to amend the arty pledge to make a candidate wear that he endorses a plat orm which has been repudiatedi y the people, if not by some< >oliticians. At the last May convention it ;as suggested that a dispensary plank be put in the State plat- f orm, and that the pledge be so mended as to require a candi late to swear that he endorsed he platform before lhe could go 1 nto the primar-y. Senator Till nan was opposed to it, so was olonel Jones and others. Sen tor Tillman was at that time a rospective candidate for r-e-elec ~ion and Colonel Jones felt some hing buzzing in his bonnet: nei her cared to offend the Prohibi :ionists. Now, wxill Senator Till nan and Chairman Jones sin-1 eely use their influence to-t cards keeping our party pledge s it is at present, and has been ince 1894Y T1his is the question hey shonld answer. They hould throw off anything whicht .ias the senmblance of hypocrisy, td not give it out they are op osed to ruling "a man " out of he primary, when they are will .ng for the party pledge to be so nanipulated that "the man" annot with self-respect take the nanipulated pledge. Senator liman and Chairman Jones i hould say it loud and strong, :hat our primaries are to arrive it a choice of the white people, d nothing should go into the >-imary pledge which will stifle r throttle free and open discus ~ion. If they do not do this they how they arec afraid to trust the >eCole in a fair-, free and open ight, with all bound to abide the 1 -esult. A flood swept over the mining listrict of West Virginia last; sunday, destroying in the neigh orhood of one thousand lives d millions of dollars worth of roperty. It will take miany,' nany months to repair the dam ge, and in the meanwhile thous nds of poor people will be out1 f employment, and great suffer Columbia was the scene of a strikers riot last Sunday morn ing before day light. A crowd of striking machinists went in at body to the Southern Railway ( yards, and by intimidation forced about twenty laborers to get up t and leave the yards. The work- d ing muen were escorted beyond the city linits, and subjected to harsh treatment. One of the .i campany's guards was shot and I several of the strikers were t wounded. The railroad officials followed the band of strikers and i brought back all but one of the d working men. These labor organ izations are a new thing in the South, and we fear that there coming this way bodes no good to the laboring man. t Deafness Cannot be Cared by local applications. as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is on!v one way to cure deafness. and that is by constitu tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an in ilamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets inflam ed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hear- 1 ing. and when it is entirely closed deafness is 1 the result. and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal 1 condition.hearing will be destroyed forever: nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh. which is nothing but an inflanted condition of the mu cous surfaces. we will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that can t not be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure.

I have been to Manning, to Wilson's and S to Jordan a time or too, but don't go a anywhere much. I've got to make my S livin' by the sweat of my brows. And if a fellow makes a livin' these days and don't cheat nobody and don't steal nothin'. he just n'tually ain't got time di to go a foolin' round these little towns. From what little I can see. them few Q times I do go to town. it looks to me v< like them fellows what don't work S none. fixes up better and splurges a round moer'n them what works. Well, now that just ain't right: it just n'tu ally ain't. Somethin' rong some- p where. shure. That's what makes me st not go to town any moer'n I do. It makes me think curious, like. I likex to see a man workin' for a hones' livin'. That's honest and right. It ain't never no disgrace to see r. man tryin' to make C a honest livin', no matter what kind of work, just so it's honest. And I jest want to ask you now,how does them fel lows get tha livin': you reckon they livin' on the intrus' of tha money? Oh, I jest tell you what's a fact, man, 1 go a along in the field workin'; sometimes I c begin to think, and I tell you some curius tho'ts come to me. I even wishes sometimes I could fly around ti like them fellows I was talkin' about, C and then I thinks to myself "no, they an't do it hones' and I can't neather." And that jest ends it, and then I try to think about somethin' else. And then there is another thing that keeps a rumagin in my mind, and that's hese here bum-fuzzlin' wether-buro :rop reporters-I reckon that's the name >f -them: anvhow it's them fellows that keeps writin' '.ott the crops. Well s tha is just the golbustinest liars that t he United States government ever ired to tell a lie. JTust let me tell you, Mr. Editor, if them fellows-I mean :hm crop reporters-at the last great lay of judgment hlave to give an ac ount of their sins, and lies Iu perticu- pi .ar, like I believe other people will have th o do, tha wvon't stand no sort of a t howin' with old Peter. They do say~ ~hat Peter is the name of the feller :hat stands guard at the golden gate to . urn back all them as ain't got -no busi- tl ess in the promis land. When them m .'porters gets where ole Petpr is and i ie ask them, "Say, what you tell so ge :rnation many, lies on them fellers at lown yonder what is tryin' so hard to PE nake a hones' livin' a plowin' of the at goun' an' plantin' seeds and a tryin' to gE arm: say, what you done it for?'' R When Peter ask them that, you goin' F; , see more of 'em turn pale roun' the ills than yQu can count, for all the an wer tha can make is, "~We was getin' >avy for it.'' And I don't blieve money B 'oin' to stand any sort of showin' when Si rou get to that golden gate. It's just ny hiones' belief that every tub will iav to set on its own bottom there. and 1o dtus' can't be flung in ole Peter's eyes. I tell you what I believe, Mr. hi Editor: I believe thenm crop reporters or roes off every summer to the mountain xr way of somewhere, where tha can't , ee the crops and sp)ecially the grass a ti rrowin'. We fellers what's tryin' to te: arm ain't goin' to make but mity little hi >f anything this year, no help for it, 2 yecause a heap of the corn and cotton da s done throwed 'way: grass eat it up rh Lnd the water drownded it, and that i'C vhat's left can't make what it orter. He nd it's agoin' to cost us more to make half er crop than it orter to make a y ole one. Anybody, even a man with ~ne eve can see what a fix the crops is n, and yet still, these her-e all-firein' rop reporters say that if the farmirs. m ill hurry up now and work out the in rops QLUICK, everything will be o. k. in Well the only way I see it could be o- th :is for them rep~orter's to furnish us, se ee, some kind of a big mashene to TI ummp up the water. and then get some y :ind of a golbustin' big tub to hold it foa ;fter it was pumped. *2 Now a hones' confession is good for pai he soul. If all them r'ep~orters would m, est get in a big bunch and go to Wash- t ngton and tell the President, "Now, le, ookehere, Mr. President, we done p nake a mistake 'bout them crops: them thl armers ain't and can't make moer'n b ialf a cr01), and it ain't their fault, th eather, the rain done it-the crop is fin est drownded out." If they would do ic hat there might be some chance of to hem big cotton bulls thinkin' the crop h asent much good shore enough, and sh hen they might pay us right for what e made. But I must stop; hein' as ta; his is my first letter I don't know m: ihether it will be throwed 'way or not. ut if it ain't throwed 'way I got some hin' to say befo're long about theso iere mills what buys up all the cotton . eed and makes meal out of them and of len sells it hack to the same fellers Gu gain. in.
