Washington, D. C. " AN UNHOLY ALLIANCL" The Columbia State had anoth er Koester* fit. In its issue of last Monday, it covered a space of two-and-one-half columns struggling with its spasm. The State disclaims any intention of prosecuting Koester; perhaps it objects tothe word prosecution persecution would come nearer expressing its intentions. The colored ministerial union of Co lumbia and the Columbia State are active witnesses against Koester to prove that he once upon a time, aided in the lynch ing of a negrofor assaulting a white woman, and because of this alleged aiding in said lynch ing of a nergo fiend for commit ting a heinous offence upon a respectable white woman, the colored ministerial union of Co lumbia and the Columbia State think President Roosevelt should withdraw the appointment of Koester. In the State's two-and one-half columns of retching, there is no intimation whether or not the State is a member of the colored ministerial union, but both institutions, the union, and the State are allied in mak ing the same fight against Koes ter, who has the misfortune of having the bitter animosity of the editor of The State, and it is known, when that editor hates, he will combine with anything, from a colored ministerial union, to the devil,- to crush an oppon ent. Koester may have aided in a lynching, as the State "jocose ly" (?) charged, but if the State is not hypocritical, in its oppo sition to lynch law, why did it not, with the evidence it profess es to have, see to it that Koester was prosecuted in 1893, the time of this alleged lynching, instead of perecuting him, with the aid of the colored ministerial union in 1901? Does the appointment of a personal enemy to a lucu tive office justify the exposing of a crime after concealing it for eight or nine years? Or is it the policy of the State to stand in with lynchers so long as they are personally friendly with its editor. So far as the charge "jocosely" made in the State of Koester's connection with a lynching is concerned, we know nothing of the circumstances, but it strikes us that the editor of the State is the last man on earth to bring such a charge af ter keeping quiet these many years; the moment he "jocosely" made the charge, anybody who knows his hatred for Koester, would have labeled it Malice. SUSPEND JUDGMENT. The arrest of Alonzo Smith and his copartner, W. F. Dennis, former respected citizens of Clar endon, for the burning of Tim monsville, was indeed a great shock to everybody who knew them. The account of the fire is published elsewhere from the columns of the Timmonsville Enterprise and the press dis patches, but since its publi cation, a preliminary has been held and Smith and Dennis re manded to jail to await the giv ing of bond. The published ac counts make it appear very blue for the parties arrested, but we * have it from a gentleman who was present at the hearing and he gave it as his opinion that the men are innocent, and will so prove themselves if ever they get before a jury. We have known Alonza Smith a number of years, had business transac tions with him, and have always found him a man of integrity and high sense of honor, and from our knowledge of the man, before we could be brought to believe that he would be a party to such a crime the proof would have to be very convincing. Mr. Dennis is only a casual acquaint ance, but those who have known him all of his life speak of him as a man of excellent character, and from the section of Sumter county where he was raised the1 best men have volunteered to sign a bond for him in any amount. Mr. Smith's friends s t a n d ready to furnish bail as soon as the order is signed. This speaks well for both of the men who are charged with a crime that, if1 guilty, will send them to the gal lows or to prison for life. It is a confidence in their innocence which prompts their friends to come to the assistance in their distress. We hope that the public will not become prejudiced against the parties charged, and that a suspension of public opinion will be had, for it often happens that men are chargedwith crime from some circumstance, of which they are victims, and when the case is developed and the circum stances are investigated, they come clear, having fully estab lished their innocence, which we hope will be the result of this The State fair was a success, considering the strengency of the times. The management had every thing there to gratify the curious, and to entertain the fun seeking. Colonel Holloway secretary of the association merits the commendations of everybody for his excellent management. The Florence Times, like all other Anti-McLaurin newspa papers, will not give any intelli gent reasoning why it continues to abuse Senator McLaurin, but contents itself with making light of those who will not be dragged into its mode of fighting an opponent. Brother Ayer is a splendid fellow, but there is a cog ia his wheel misplaced, and oc casionily he gets pretty shacke ly. He dont mean any harm by it, and will learn better after awhile. The elections yesterday show a decided Republican increase. New York's mumcipal election resulted in the defeat of Tam many by crushing majorities, and places the machinery of Greater New York, normally Democratic, in the hands of the Republican party for the next presidential campaign. O h i o goes Republican by 50.000. Pennsylvania clings to her black idol. Massachusetts Republicans carry the State without difficul tv. Nebraska, the home of Wil liam Jennings Bryan is another gone wrong. Connecticut same way. Maryland uncertain, but claimed by the Democrats. Ken tuckey came back to the Democ racy. The returns as indicated by the press despatches prove conclusively that the Democracy must find new issues before it can again win the confidence of the people. We had as well face conditions as they exist, and turn loose rejected theories. The Columbia postmastership has gone to an old line Republi can, Doctor Ensor the incum bent, and because McLaurin did not get a Democrat for the place, some of his newspaper opponents seem to take it as a sweet mor sel of hope, that his influence at Washington is not so powerful after all. If McLaurin lands a Democrat, he is abused and his motives are questioned,if he fails, he is no good. It is a case of "damned if you do, and damned if you dont." The Senator doesn't seem to worry at all about this condition, and he goes right along attending to his business of looking out for what he conceives to be the best in terests of his people. He will in a few days deliver an address before th e Southern C o tton Spinner's A'ssociation at Atlanta, and from there he goes to de liver an address before the New York Chamber of Commerce, the most important commercial body in the world. To be invi ted to address bsfore this body is a compliment not only to the Senator's ability, but to South Carolina. Our octogenarian friend of the Laurens Herald, Col. Crews, has become so accustomed to seeing spooks, that he has reach ed the stage where every pro gressive move is regarded by him as something to be shunned It was the same way with hipi when he heard of Fulton pro pelling a boat up the Hudson by steam; it gave him such a fright that he almost took to the woods for fear the thing would reach Laurens, and make sinners of his readers. When he heard of people riding on rail roads, he made sure it was a scheme f the devil to entice people off to torment, and - the thing had been in operation fifty years be ore he would risk himself on ne- It is the same with him to-day, only more so, every idea ot old enough to be covered with moss, is looked upon with suspicion, and as being vile. This accounts for his paroxysms of fright on the advent of~ pro gressive ideas for the Democrat ic party. The old gentleman is wedded to his old pipe and rock in-the-sack-ideas, and he sincere ly believes what was good enough for the people of Laurens nearly a century ago when he ad his friend Hoyt of the reenville Mountaineer were boys, must be good enough now, nd any advancement will be streneously opposed by him. ld age has this effect, the mind runs back to childhood, and hence Crews' weekly blasts to be ware of McLaurin's "Progres sive Democracy." The exposition will be ready to receive exhibits after the 15th inst, and we would ea:mnestly urge our citizens to bestir them selves to make this county have a creditable show. We have the material for a fine display and we should take advantage of the pportunity. There are in this ounty two cotton seed oil mills which could, by spending a few :dollars, place on exhibition as one of this county's products, specimens of the oil, stock food and fertilizers which they manu facture. Then we have a knit tin mill which can get up a splendid display of hosiery, our saw mills can prepare numbers of wood specimens. Our far mers can select various products of their farms, a little from each placed in the hands of an expert can give Clarendon County a grand place in the picture. The town of Manning will give the visitors an opportuity to learn where the finest water on earth can be found, backed up with a health giving climate, and sur rounded by lands that will pro duce anything fit for man or beast to subsist upon. THE c MANNING TIMES offers a ten f dollar gold piece for the best < display of wood from our swamps i and forests, and with what we v know of the import of the. expo- r sition, we would be recreant to I our readers if we did not urge 1 upon them the necessity of tak- < ing advantage of this grand op- i portunity. We call upon the e commissioners to make it known s when and where they will re- Q ceive deposits of the various < things that will be offered them. < If the commissioners haven't the time to bother with it, wont they z do the exposition company the a kindness to ask that others be 1 appointed to do this work. We < believe with commissioners who < will give some of their time, Clarendon can be among the ex hibiting counties. STATE OF OHIo. CITY OF TOLEDO. LUCAs COUNTY. FRANK J.

C., Nov. 3.-Fire broke s ut about 3:30 o'clock this morning in a small store near the depot. The flames iuickly spread and b'eore they could be checked, four buildings were de stroyed. The buildings burned were the stor-es of Mack Morris and A. A. urphy, the residence of the Misses Welch, a small meat market and a shoe shop under the same roof as Murphy's store. The buildings all belonged to Mrs. Jane Holleman and were not in sured. Mr. Murphy lost nearly his whole s-ock of goods. He was insured for about $500. Mr. Morris lost every thing, and, it is said, a good amount of iash and checks. The Misses Welch ived most of their household goods and personal effects. Mr. Morris sleeps in his store and Mr. Murphy and family ive in the rear- of his store. They all bad narrow escapes from the flames. If a the wind had been blowing to any a eight the whole business portion of the town might have been burned, and it was only by hard work that the citi- I tens saved it from being destroyed as it was. Mrs. Holleman, the owner of the loss buildings, had received a letter a few] lays ago warning her that she would be burnt out. From all accounts the fire was un loubtedly the work of an incendiary, and there is something crooked some where. It is hoped that every effort will be made to investigate the matter tt once.-Sumter Item. Modern Surgery Surpassed. "While suffering from a bad case of iles I consulted a physician who ad lised me try a box of DeWitt's Witch Eazel Salve," says G. F. Carter, Atlan a, Ga. "I procured a box and was en ~irely cured. DeWitt's Witch Hazel salve is a splendid cure for piles, giv- a ng relief instantly, and I heartly re ommend it to all sufferers." Surgery s unnecessary to cure piles. DeWitt's s Witch Hazel Salve will care any case. ruts, burns, bruises and all other ounds are also quickly cured by it. Beware of counterfeits. The R. B. oryea Drug Store, Isaac M. Loryea, Prop.

Wednesday morning about 3: 30 o'clock fire was discovered in he store of Smith & Dennis on range street and it quickly 1 spread to the adjoining business aouses.

The money and papers in all of them being unhurt. The contents of the bank vault were in spleneid condition-not even showing any signs of fire. The bank of Timmonsville is now do ing business at the office of the Jno. McSween Co. A sensation almost as great as the fire itself was the arrest of W. F. Dennis and Alonza Smith. composing the firm of Smith & Dennis, charging them with the burning of their store, the place the tire originated. After what was supposed to be suspicious rumors, a committee of six citi zens of the town, accompanied by an officer, went to the home of Smith and Dennis with a search warrant and searched the residence and premises, tinding lots of shoes, hats and other goods packed in boxes and hid den in the barn, being covered by hay. Mr. Dennis was arrest ed on the spot, being unable to account for the presence of the goods, and a warrant was issued for Mr. Smith who had left for his old home in Clarendon coun ty a few hours previously. He was arrested brought to town Thursday morning. .Both are now in the Florence jail awaiting the preliminary trial which will take place tomorrow. The burnt district will be re built at once with sub4antial brick buildings and Timmonsville will once more take her place as the best business town of its size in the State. The burning in no way effects the tobacc.o interest of the town, as some of the largest mercantile establish ments in town are still left, such as the immense stores of The John McSween Co., D. A.
