Such assaults tin tiiut committed
on a young mini in this township
Tuesday night ??f last week are (lis- |
graceful to a civilized continuity. 1
The perpel raters of such deeds
should be arrested if possible and
made to sutler 1 lie fullest penalty
of the law.

A big gathering of the wholesale
grocers of the United Slates was
held in Dot riot a few days ago to
consider the formation of a combine
that will include the lending
grocery houses of the country in a j
trust that will rival the steel trust
in magnitude and excel it in the ;
ramifications of its business down
to the very heart of the people of
all sections. The chances seem to
be fair for the consummation of
the scheme.

Now that the elections are concluded
it is announced that the ;
press report that the army in tinPhilippines
is to he reduced to 0,000
or 10,000 inen|is not warranted.
Seventeen thousand men are to he
ke? t to garrison the islands in addition
to 7,000 native con dnbulary,
making a total military force of 2b- I
000 men. Various excuses are ad-j
vanned as reasons for the contiu-j
nance of so lame a force in iiie i
archipelago,among them, the advisability
of being in a position to
adopt the defensive in the event of
any international trouble in the
Orient.
Further developments in regard
to the Anthracite Coal Strike Commission
are looKed for dailj*, now
that the elections are over. Tho
press correspondents with the
commission state that tlie coininiHsionors
are already expressing
surprise that they have heard nothing
from the independent operators
whom they have invited to I
submit their difficulties to the
commission and refusal of the in
dependent operators to he party to
the arbitration is likely to he made
known at any time. The result, it
is feared, will he to invalidate the
work for which the commission
has been called into existence and
Ihus the solution of tho coal strike
accomplished by the President
with such n blaze of glory will end
in n nasco.
The National Democratic Committee
lias conceded the defeat, in
last week's election, of the Democratic
party and the election of a
Republican House. The figures,
as, given out were 183 Democrats
elected, 6 doubtful, and 1D-4 Republican.
Even counting the Republican
majority at 26. the estimate
made by the chairman, it will
be seen that the Democrats have
secured their half of the 211 new
members elected because of increase.
npi>ortionment and have reduced
lh?? Republican majority
from 47 to 26. It is confidently
lielieved that there were more
Democratic votes polled in New
York Stale than there were Republicans.
All during the early
part of the evening of election day
the returns indicated that Ooler
was elected governor, and it was
then noticed, by the shrewd
watchers, that returns suddenly
ceased to be received from up-State.
Lsite r, according to the claims of
the Democrats in Washington, the
up-State Republicans fixed the
CWell majority at the figures nccsdry^to
carry the State. They
are in control of all the election
. machinery in the state and it would
hriVfr been u very simple matter for
them fo alter the tally sheets sufficiently
to pull Ode!I through.
Htiwever, the republicans have won

Tlie Times has iti Fort Mill n
few "dear friends," who take ospecinl
pride and care in gathering
a certain class of local happenings
and, in preference to having them
, published at home, forward the
items to our contemporaries in
Yorkville and Hock Hill. These
expostulations usualy give in the
most flowery terms accounts of
"at homes,'' "leas," "Mr. and Mrs.
- - entertains," "straw rides,'' or
i other such occurrences, always ex
pressing, willi a profound decree of
simpleness. the pleasing style or
hospitable manner in \vhi<-h 1 lie j
host or hostess entertained. And (
whether through fear of ils beinn
cast aside, or what not. the items
are sent away from home for publication.
Realizing, as wo do. that a very
delicate subject lias been touched
upon, every care shall be taken
lest the feelings of these dear
writers lie wounded, and such a
calamity would be too bid; not
only would it likely brine about
the loss of a subscriber, but the
loss of a dollar a year, as some seem
to think, would cause the downfall
of the paper.
The Times has not made a
specialty in the past of publishing
these little '"walk rasies." and
those of which mention was made,
were stated in as few words as
possible. We would not. have it
understood that The Times was
aware of all such occasions, for
lltllliv- WIU'II lir^l l.inrni.il ..I" !>? ....

rusingllie columns of tin* county
contemporaries. Ar a reason for
(lie lilt lo space and few words deVoted
to those published. we would
say, outside of (hose l?v whom the
entertainments were ^iven, the
public, in our opinion, read them
with just so much interest us an
account of a common cat Hj^lit.
That The Times didn't mention
more of these "sit arounds," is accounted
for by tin' fact that the
writer is not (thanks to the Father)
one of the chosen (lock who
thus euj?anc, ami were not informed.
In conclusion, be it said that if
our readers are haif h i well contented
without su?-li news as Tile
Times man, these writers are at
liberty to continue this practice
without further molestation.

in Divide Alliance Money.
The Alliance Kxohange has formnlly
gone out of business. It has
practically been in that eoiulitioii
for several years, though its corporate
existence has been kept up.
The Alliance hail $17,0(10 on hand
\ and there lias been a great deal of
controversy over what disposition
I should be made of it. Theexeeul
live comittce having the matter in
; charge met in this city,and finally
concluded to take this money and
| divide it pro rata. This will be an
immense job, but it is understood
that the sub-alliances will get as
1 nearly as possible tin' amount of
money originally contributed to
1 the fund, and they can inakowhati
ever disposition of it that they
! wish. It is saiil that some will de|
vote their share to charitable purposes,
and others will give it to
j schools. IStill others wil attempt
; to return the money to individuals.
! It will thus be seen that whatever
plan is followed, it is going to he
a difficult matter to equitably dispose
of it, for not only are some of
the contributors dead, but suhalliauces
also have long since been
disbanded.?Columbia ltecord.
A Beautiful Idea.
Away among the Alleghnnies
there is a spring so small that a
single OX could drain it ilrv mi
' summer day. It steals its uiiobj
trusire way among the hills till it
! spreads out in tin* beautiful Ohio
Thence it stretches away a thousand
miles, leaving on its banks
more than n thousand villages and
cities, and bearing on the bosom
more than half a thousand steainIxmts.
Then joining the .Miss,
issippi. it stetohfcs away some 1,300
milesinore, tij^l it falls into the
gieat em^h/ihdf eternity. It is one
of the tributaries of the ocean,
which, obedient only to God, shall
roll and roar until the angel, with j
one foot on the sea and the other
on the land, shall lift up his hand
to heaven and swear that time shall
not be no longer. So with moral
influence. It is the rill, the rivulet,
the ocean, boundless and fathom|
less as eternity?Kx.

Five Die el Smallpox.
The following paragraph from
tli*? Charlotte Olwerver of Sunday
allows to what an alarming extent
smallpox in rauing in that city:
"The Observer feels it necessary
i to state, as a precautionary nieasI
ute, that the smallpox situation in
j this city is serious. In the pest
i house and house of detention there
nrc over 50 persons, tnore than
half of whom are broken out with
smallpox. And in every part of
town there are people who hnve
the disease and are quarantined in
private houses. Five persons died
of smallpox in and around Charlotte
last week. Not a one of the
five hud been vaccinated.''

1 the well-known picture of pome
chickens just out of their s li 11.
He examined the pictlire carefully
and then, with a jjriive. sagacious
look, slowly remarked: '"They came
