There are few newspaper edi tors who obey the injunction, t< turn the other cheek, when thel are smitten, and the editor o this newspaper is no exception We do not enjoy saying harsl things, because we have a tendei regard for the feelings of others and if harsh things are to b< said, we prefer that those should say them, who, on Sundays, ii robes of sanctity profess to pro pound the sweet and noble doc trine of love, and on week days from a newspaper, and, with th< fiendish glee of a devil incarnatt promulgate under cover of an other's name, doctrines to engen der strife, bitterness and hate. There are times when we ar< forced to speak out, and strik< back, because circumstance: bring on conditions which mus be met. When assailed locally we are content "to give the brut< rope, that he might bay freely his baying will be his own un doing." But when we are as sailed abroad we hit back, to an extent as in our judgihent the Gonditions warrant. In last Friday's State, a fellov doing the editorial work, grind: out a criticism of an editoria which appeared in THE TIMES in its issue of July 3rd. Tha fellow refers to us as "one of a parasitic class of editors" whici he does "not like to handle, ever with tongs." He also, with ai air of asinine wisdom, discover: an error in our grammar; we used the word "was" when we should have used the wor< "were, "and finding nothing els< to hurl, he compares us to at agile flea.. This thing, who was permittef to fill up space in the editoria columns of The State of 5th inst., whines, that in our reply t< his editorial of June 29th, w< "intended to be insulting by in sinuation," in the following sen tence "Gonzales has lived ih Columbia a long time, let hin show where his townsmen hav< reposed confidence in him, eithe: politically or financially, withou' regretting it." We have yet t< learn that The State has secure< the sole privilege of being "in sulting." When it referred to m as being economical in the use o: the truth," without provocation we resented such a dastardly as sertion by challenging a corn parison between the editor o: The State and ourself, and fo: hity to cite an instance where wi have ever written a falsehood. There is no law which com pels a man to criminate himself nor did we expect that the edito: of The Starte would reproduce confession of treachery whicl may be found in his files along i1 January, 1899,nor did we look fo: him to have anything to saa about his paper when it was in struggling st age, but how doe: he propose to accept our chal lenge "to cite an instance whei we have ever written a false hood?" This is what he offer: as his proof, referring to us, h< says. "He charges that Mr. N G. Gonzales wrote the article ih The State of June 29, * * *. A . a matter of fact, Mr. Gonzale did not write oneline of that at ticle." The editorial to which we too] exceptions occuyied the leadin; space of the editorial columns ii The ,State, and at the head of th< edi torial page of that newspape: stands the name "N. G. Gonza les, Editor." The offending arti *cle was unsigned, and thereform we could recognize no one else a; the editorial writer. But grant ing that Mr. Gonzales did not d< the writing, where in the nami of sense is the falsehood? Thi: newspaper has a patronage whi scorn falsehood, and we hay, been writing its editorials man; ~- years, the increasing patronagi is a proof of confidence in th< integrity of the editor, and whe> a great daily newspaper so abl; edited as is The State, charge us with falsehood we resent it and we had the best of reasons ti believe the charge was made b: the editor of that paper, Mr. N G. Gonzales. All the circumn stances gave us the right to as sume that the filth appearing 11 The State of June 29tii. was duf up with the pen of Mr. Gonzales we had not been advised of species of scaraboid beetle being brought into action to roll ta ball of mud. to the p)ublic gaz and our first information tha such was the case is give n us in The State of 5th, inst: beig nos informed "'Mr. Gonzales did no write one line of that ar ticle" w< will sprinkle him with Hoyt' germnan cologne, to rid him o tlie bad odor. and ask his for giveness for alleg'inthat lhe wa: the writer. anad will say to Mr Gonzales, the harsh retort wa: wrung from us by an unealle< for and villainous assertion edits, and winch reflected upon our integrity. We have read articles in The State, over the name of "n. d. pitts, colard porter." but we can not conceive that "pitts" took advantage of the editor's absence to publish a contemptible slander on a respectable editor, and have it palmed off on the public, for reasoning. The unknown fellow ;who says he does not like to handle our kind "even with tongs" may have learned in the school of eXperieice that we care no mIor"e for such self-opinionated creatures, than we do for the * -be' Lluned-nose loot-blacks to h roiund on Columbia's streets: it has been our observation, wherever we have come across a creature who assumes a superior Swisdom, and an air of scorn for others, he is usually one of those spectacled, high collared scrubs, vwho part their hair in the mid dle, lisp, and are endowed with an ill shaped head, containing a brain that will rattle in the shell of a mustard seed. The opinions of such, whether good, bad or ' indifferent, will not cause us the loss of any sleep. Hon. J. W. Stokes of Orange burg,. member of Congress from the 7th district, died at his home near Orangeburg last Saturday. Dr. Stokes was a faithful worker and won considerable reputation by his efforts for rural free deliv erv. Already the dead man's political shoes are being sought by politicians. The indications are, the cotton seed oil mill combination will be ready to apply its machine to press the cotton seed out of the hands of the farmers, at their own price this fall. We believe that Royster, Armour, Virginia Carolina-Chemical, and Southern Oil Companies will go together and the whole, become under the controlling management of Rock efeller's Standard Oil Company. Then farmers look to your inter ests by letting the combine alone. One of the finest exhibitions of publishing enterprises that has ever reached our office comes in the shape of the "Industrial Art Edition," published in the office of the Columbia State. If that edition is sent broadcast through out this country and Europe it will prove a great advertising investment and fine results can be expected from it. The mech anism of this journal is more than creditable, and until we read the editorial in The State relating to it, we would not have believed that in all of South Carolina was it possible to turn out such artistic printing. Col. J. A. Hoyt's review of the life and career of the late Francis W. Dawson, delivered at the -State Press Association last week was a magnificient tribute to the memory of the gr-eatest newspaper man South Carolina ever had. Colonel Hoyt,who is a veteran journalist, and could not have been better assigned, and the committee in making the se lection did well in selecting one who was so thoroughly familiar with the life, traits and career of the departed sailor-soldier-jour nalist and gentleman. The de liverance is worthy of perpetua tion and the association could not pay a more fitting tribute to the distinguished dead than by hav ing Colonel Hoyt's address en grossed, framed and presented to the State which has been the beneficiary of Dawson's devotion. Dr. C. S. Gardner one of the -most eloquent and broad-minded clergymen in this State, has ten dered his resignation to the First Baptist church in Green ville to accept a call of Grace Street Baptist church in Rich -mond, Va. Dr. Gardner is a man of scholarly attainments, a close observer of human events and a shining light of piety. The peo ple of Greenville will have to make a close search throughout America to find his' equal, and we regret the State will lose his grand usefulness. Dr. Gardner made his mark at the Southern Baptist conference last May ihn the city of New Orleans. His address delivered before that dis tinguished body attracted the attention of intellectual critics all over the United States, and brought fronm them words of highes'> praise. When in Green ville recently we had -the pleas ure of meeting this distinguished divine, and we were greatly im pressed with his dignified bear ing, and liberalness of views, on political and religious subjects. Dr. Gardner does not belong to that school of preachers who effect to believe "He that believeth not in me and my church shall be damned." The city of Richmond is to be con gratulated on securing such a ~grand man, and noble teacher of His word.

Loryea Drug Observations of "An Observer." Editor The Manning Tunes: In your issue of the 3rd instant I no tice a communication signed lRusti cus," in which he criticises our Super visor for not only not keeping the pub lie roads near him in good condition, hut for the failure of new public roads being cut, or rather he intimated this. \Ve happened to know. - or heard through pretty good authority, that the road blazed out from Sutumerton to Manning failed on account of those whose business it was, failed to meet the Supervisor with others interested at an appointed time for meeting which was final. The Supervisor was on hand at this meeting and only one other met him, and this party as I understood was not in favor of the road, but had all the parties met at the appointed time this 'gentleman (who did meet the Super visor) may have consented for the road to be cut across his lands. as that seemed to be the trouble. As to the blazing out of a roa to Jor dan, if my memory serves me right, the s'atement was not published by the Supervisor. but by some one who advo cated it. I don't think the road has ever been blazed out. At any rate the Supervisor can only do what the law allows. It is ridiculous to hold up the roads of New York and New Jersey as patterns for our Super visor to be governed by for the reason that these States appropriate. I expect, a thousand dollars to our one dollar for public road work. As to building a jail with the chain gang, etc., I think it would be a feather in the cap of the Supervisor if he could devise some way to build a decent jail, and no doubt if the people would con sent for our Representatives in the Legislature to make a small levy, our Supervisor might be able to devise some plan to build a jail, since he is himself a good carpenter. The above is written by one who wishes that we had good roads in every section. and 4 Rusticus " will no doubt agree with the writer that the Super visor, on account of a limited means, cannot put in a perfect condition all the roads in every township in the county at the same time, but will require sev eral years to accomplish the desired condition with the present system, es pecially when we take into considera tion the large number of bridges in the county that are to be kept up. I hope, though. that our Supervisor will do like Pucket's goose-when she covered so many eggs-spread himself. AN OBSERVER. Heartburn.

SORES AND ULCERS Sores and Ulcers never become chronic unless the blood is in poor condition-is sluggish, weak and unable to throw off the poisons that accumulate in it.
