The New York Times speaks ot the epeecbes of Representatives Dargan and IkwapbiH on the silver question as “a Wow at the Dvraocrstic party and the aoiid South.’’ If the Times wilt open its Mrs and listen onto wisdom it will hear TJneleOeorge Tillman, next Saturday, eiailiugup the eracks that the two freah- enau hare made. ’The nomination of Democratic candi- •dates for all popular ( ffices in this State foy primary elections is cowing and why met let it come at once ? The people would enjoy it end it would do the eandi- data a world of good. Nothing would no fortfy the coDatitu»ions of Congress men against the malaria of Washington' ms good doses of speech making to and hand shaking with their constituents. And there is some probability that they would learn aome things not printed in •the hooka but none the hrs* worthy of acceptation because of that. Let s try it. We don’t see much fun any way. Oor exchanges show that the foreign land loan associations aia extending thrir operations and finding fresh fields in all parts of the State. It is not our bush ne-a but we can uot imagine by wbat process of reasoning any man, who has so far not accumulated enough to enable him to paddle his own canoe, can hope to be able to pay se much forar litt’e. It assy be true that the associations may • not want the lands pledged as security, 1 but they will want their money when > it becomes due and their debtors need not expect, for tiny will not receive. 1 that merey whieh home creditors are ac- t vustomad ta extend. It does not mat. 4 ter to the land owner who buys his borne • but aomr body will purchase it and he " •wifi become a hewer of wood and a draw* •“wr of water for its more fortunate pos. >■ aeaaor. Capital throughout the United A-tiUtee is seeking investment in real ca pitate and with the Uck of profit in other Stdireetion* such investment* will rapidly *• inereaae. A wealthy Pennsylvanian of ~ our acquaintance, who is interested in i many ventures, says that the rental of !• his real estate in this county pays a If better interest than his stocks ia min ••a «• Sod manufactories and, iu the near future, «'there will be a boom in Barnwell land* • equal to that which has transformed £ Florida from a wilderness to a paradise. These land loan associations are, in our ‘ deliberate .opinion, good things to let • alone, and if correctly informed the peo. ' pleol Kansas and other States, from which they have withdrawn, arc of the mu* paiuful belief. But we will not have long to wait before we find out whether or not we are correct. Over seventy tracts of lapd in this county have been mortgaged to them and when they foil 8m, unless we are greatly mistaken, the old story of the Trojan horse will be again developed. The South needs capital, home made capital and economy and arithmetic are often more valuable than the almighty dollar, the bait that catches the unwary. Two weeks ago Thb Pkoplx sug- gaateo that “a meeting be held hers next ■ale day to elect delegates" to the con vention called to meet in Columbia on tbo 29th inst. We believed than and our opinion is still unchanged that a oan vendon of eooaarvative, representative fkrmert, who ha re no political ambitions and aspirations to gratify and no reven ges to reap would bs productive of good, not by inaugurating all the visionary ra- fjrms preached and, promised by the upoatlss of tbs naw deal, but, by giving to the aaemben of the convention an ac curate knowledge of the condition of pob- Re afikhw and public sentiment, so that they might be convinced that the jere miads of Mr. B. R. Tillman and his co adjutors are not correctly representative of the State sod iu affairs. But uiir sug- gesthm mama to have fallen flat and as yet it baa elieited no reaponaa of appro val. And b trying to learn why the people knee not been aroused by the nammooaof the new Moees, we have aaoda a better aequaintanos with public that has led ns to approve the aoand common sense of the who have not been led aatny by Ms gfoomy platitudes. A careful analy se of the cnS for the OMVMtiptf shows !j| foequeat Inaaaafotonmss, and an exami nation of the raeords of the eallen, so for as (mown, reveals the &ct that only a flew of thorn have been nod me repre- Only one of them, so has beau intimately with the State Agrieukunl fug the-Rvfttbfican era,! the bri-t and only siifotlitmj for the lyg- NTn ii ii m g-j. #n, l which revivwl, at its am. L Vditor nod Rmwfotnr ^ koowledge th* good I) MitOi *Wi rropiwmr. mcn ftB< j woineg| ,n over the State, were waiting and watehiqg for the first oppor- tunity to redeem the commonwealth.— Why did not these ninety-two gentlemen, now so solicitous for the welfare of tbe farmers, come to the frout in those troub lous times? And the wrongs and grievances of which they complain can easily be cured by ordinary agencies without resort to heroic, revolutionary treatment. Men must always have somebody at some thing to blame au<) especially so when times are hard. Then any change that promises relief is risked. Now a little excursion through the history of the Stale since the rc-atoratiou of Dcmocmlic rule will show that the agriculturists have hiid such contrdling n prcseoUition os was, until receutly, entirely satisfac tory to them. No man complains of that and if they want more their demand will be gratified and the followers of other occupations will be content. Of three Governors elected during that time, directly by the people—tvro have been farmers and one a teacher, and like pro portions have prevailed in other positions where no special tiaining or adaptatiou has been required. Tbo attempt to ar ray different professions and occupations against one another might be childish in other communities and conditions but it is simply, purely and inexcusably crimi* ual in South Carolina at this juncture— for “united we stand, divided wo fall," lawyers, meredants, farmers and all, and the cold shoulder, so far given by the people jf Barnwell to the shufflers of th» new deal, shows that they realize it. If, contrary to appearances, there should be a meeting next Monday, wor thy to be regarded as representative by its numbers and character, it will be well to consider the propriety and advisability of electing delegates, but, If there should not be such a gathering, it will not be right for a corporal s guard to assume to represent the people of this county. And now and hereafter it will be well to remember that in political overflows trash and drift wood always float and solid timber stays at the bottom. ’ Un ti Ur b* ConttiMrat.-BLoe Mr. Cleveland entered tbe While Hoove he Lm gained forty-two poaodo la weigh L He It the hardest worker who- has ever filled the position of Chief Executive. He worts from early tfi the morning without intermission, ex cept for s brief drlve v oo pleasant days, sod to receive the peopie st stated times, until ml I night. His rapid Increase In weight, considering his already great physical proportions when be became President, and con sidering also tbs great mental strain that his official duties necessarily keep him under, has led to the remark fie- quently of late that be was peculiarly a subject for an apoplectic attack. He greatly resembles Mr. Manning In phy sical proportions, barring tbe dleet- mtlarlty In their site. His neck Is very short and thick, and bis bjeatblng is at times labored. Local physicians have been saying since Mr. Manning’s prostration that tbe President is al most an ideal subject of apoplexy, and the opinion Is common that unless be shall relax tbe tension of bis Exctutlve duties be will within another year be come tbe victim of apoplexy. ■— ■ ■■ ———■ I .1 ■ ■ Thk iMpgpgANCK ox Goon Wivna.— No man is better than bis wife. That is true t n general principles, and true In ninety nine in a hundred. If a man hasn’t got a good wife, be has got a bard road to travel if he ever gets to heaven. He will be one of that num ber that tbe angels showed John that came up through much tribulation. (Laughter.) If there Is a being that ought to be happy It U a man that has a good wife, a pious wife, a noble wife. How a man can be happy with any other sort of a wife is a mystery to me. If I should catch my wife In one false hood, and she knew she varied from the truth In a positive statement, I never would have any more respect for her.—i$am Jones. Our farmers must kuow that legis lation cannot make agriculture a pro fitable buslnem. All that it can do is to provide such rules of government as will give those engaged In agrloul- ture tbe opportunity to conduct their business with as little Interference, and as light taxation, as possible. The Legislature cannot make Its people rich, but it may give the protection of law without imposing onerous bur dens upon the people. In our State government we do not think legisla tion has been unfriendly to tbe farmers of our State, but our government Is cumbrous and expensive because of our Constitution, which Is a relic of radicalism. It has given us a most expensive system of Courts and of County government, which can be re duced without Injury to the public ser vice, If wo could have a Constitutional Convention. We have too much legls latlon, and the expenses for this de partment of our government might be reduced by having only biennial meet- Inca of tbe Legislature. The worst feature about our legislation Is the failure to equalize taxation, and the rei.tlAt is that aome Counties are pay ing more than their part of the State razee. Of course this bears heavily upon the sections of the State which are thus over taxed. It will be very difficult for our friends to get any con siderable sum In which they can econ omise tbe expenses of our State gov ernment The celebrated caucus of the economical members of tbe last Legislature bad to give It up as a bad Job, and adjourn without findings sin gle reform that they could unite upon. The State government requires a con siderable sum of money, it is true, but every other institution does that also. Our farms themselves require money to run them. It ie easy enough to stand off and claim that there Is ex travagance, but when one comes to put the finger upon particular Items of extravagance, the task Is not easily ac complished, as was demonstrated by the caucus to which wc referred.—An derson Intelligencer. ■ Thk Coming Comkts,—The two comets that are approaching tbe earth are c<<mtug at a tremendous rate—as comets will—and promise to be objects of great brilliancy. Prof. H. A. New ton, of the Yale Observatory, thinks they will be blighter about May 1, and will show well In the northwestern sky. The one dli covered by the French ob server, Fabry, will come, as the Times has stated, relatively very near—with in a distance of only 15,000,000 miles or but a little more than one half the dis tance of the planet Venus. It is uot yet certain that both comets will be visible at tbe same time In tbe same quarter of the heavens, but it Is possible that that unuaual spectacle may occur.— Hartford Times. It looks like childishness for grown men to raise a hue and cry against the State government, tending to tbe dis ruption of our political entity, and the prostration of the State’s credit. Wbat the people meet want In tbe present money pressure, arising from consecu tive bad seasons and a most abnormal prostration of trade tbe world over— resnlting in a great reduction In the price of staple commodities, and espe cially In the cotton crop—Is not rabid reform but prudence and common sense, and the adjustment of our fi nancial affairs so as to lift the burdens of taxation as far as possible. If the people want new men in office H ie their full right to have them. But wbat will it pay theta to turn tbe State upside down to elect any man ? What will these elections do for anybody, save those elected to office?—Colum bia Register. Tbs total earnings of the railroads in this Stats for January, 1886. were $524 318.06, against 6607,20*304 95 for (Mty tliflfc W«S fo Ikt Demoeraej 1 Mae mooth last year, Mrs. Oniflelii has offered her Cleve land bouse for rent, and will hereafter live at M*ntor, the former Garfield homestead, where aome 649,000 has been t xpended in beautifying the house and grounds. Girls, never run away from your pa- reuts until you are sure the young mao you elope with pron’t run away from you. This advice is worth a years subscription, but we give It gratis to girls. A few Southerners, who left their native land In disgust after the col lapse of the confederacy, reside at Son Pedro Lula, Honduras. They exercise considerable Infleeeeeta focal affaire, and seem to be contented. A scientific paper publishes this bit of Information : “Lay a piece af char coal upon burns and the pain subsides Immediately. By leaving tbe charcoal upon tbe wound an hour it will be healed. The remedy ft’ very cheap and simple.” * ^ The Governor baa refused to pardon Madison Minus, colored, who was con victed of breach of trust at tbe No vember, 1885, term of Court for Barn well county and sentenced by Judge Pressley to Imprisonment in tbe Peni tentiary for two years. It is said that Jennings W. Perry will oppose Mr. Dibble for congress, this campaign. In the First District, that Hon. D. S. Henderson will oppose Hob. OHBi Tillman in the Second, that Dargan and Hemphill will have no op- sition, that Mr. Aiken’s health will not permit him to run egaln, and that Smalls will have a republican oppo nent in tbe “Black District.'’ Mr. Martin Frey, of Cobb county Oa. tried tbe new way of catching rats He took a beg and filled it about half- full of water and placed cotton seed on top of tbe water, which floated on the surface. He then sprinkled meal on the top of the cotton seed and trac ed tbe keg in bis barn. Next morning Se emptied his keg of one hundred and ninety drowned rata. According to a recent report of tbe Hon J. T, Henderson, oommftsioner of Agriculture in Georgia it coeta nine cents per pound to raise cotton in that State. In this State tbe average cost of production ft probabl> aagreat, and as contracts ore already being made for tbe delivery of cotton to be grown this year, at X a cent below present prices, a little calculation as to results ft bow In order. Oapt. B. R. Tillman, who has made ao considerable a stir la South Caroli na, has but one eye. Years ago, when a lad, he gathered ligbtwood knots du ring the day, and at night, by their fit ful sod scorching glare, studied Greek. Because of that strain, bis vielon be came affected. A pulpy tumor formed in one of bis ejee, and, In spits of medical treatment, the light of that orb went out forever. Had such a ca lamity pot occurred, Ben Tillman would have studied law sad cared lit tle r r faming. fll«Bt Nigger, Kaa.

Somebody polots out that this year came to on Friday and will go out ou Friday, and have fifty-three Fridays. Two months in the year come in on Friday and two go out on Friday. There are five mom ha in the year that have five Fridays. The phases of the ufrion change five times on Friday, and the sun was eclipsed on tbe 5th of March, which fell on Friday. Tbe lon gest day in tbe year and the shortest, both fall on a Frbiay. People who have a aupeistitinuH prejudice Against Friday will be apt to see.strauge coin cidences in this. The policy adopted by the Equal izing Board places us as a State upon a falae basis and in a- light which ia detrimental to the inti rest of the coun try. Tbe statistics of the State under existing valuations will represent us as poor people, taxed to death, when such Is uot tbe case. We have low as- i-essmeuts, ami as a natural conse quence high levies. We understand a petition ia circulating to have undone wbat baa been done.
