lARUtNT COPStY CIRCCLATION.
THURSDAY* AUGUST 20, 18!W.
The News and Courier aaya that “All
the opposition to Cleveland so far de
veloped in the Democratic party can be
traced directly to the pergonal hostility
of those who could not run the Admin
istration.”
And wc would remark that those nuyrt
vociferoua for Mr. Cleveland's rtmoml-
nation are those w ho did. “run the Ad
ministration” during hit term—to de-i
feat on Its appeal to the country. Hav
ing lost the reins from their ineffective
hands they should be content to let
others try to regain them. No*possible
management can he worse than tlujtr
utter mismanagement has been.
‘ In *
an address before the hammer
meeting of tip State .Agricultural and
echaateaf t^octet^recemfy held artis^ thrae. JS'jpeX# .bchiaU AHPfts
angeburg lion. Samuel Dibble argued
that the increased tariff duties of the
hlcivinley Act arc keeping foreign pro
ducts from our poftnfwml cites as proof
the fact that the duty for July 1891 was
|8 f 000,000 less than for July 1800.
It seems to us and we think it can be
easily proven that Mr. Dibble took posi
tion like an advocate and' then hunted
for argument to support and Tortiiy it,
instead of judicially hearing and ran
sacking the argument ’before reaching
his conclusion. .
We do not doubt but that his home
merchants at Orangeburg oan give him
better explanation of the cause* of the
decrease hi tariff receipts than he has
been able to collect from the three
volumes of sj»cer!isa made in the Con-.
grcsM during the debate ou the Mills
Bill.
Wc venture to vay that the merchant*
at Orangeburg did dprlug lust July
percentage of trade a* compared with
their transactions of July }*M more re
duced in volume than the percentage by
m Utah the budne-s of the l^ited hute*
fell short in July 01.of the proportion*
•f July W>.
The decrease inctutotuvdueshas l*een
caused by the closer economy practised
In all American homes—an economy
forced by the scarcity of money, the
preseooe of hard time* and the appro
hensieB of greater financial stringency
The drainage of $7!>,UU0,i*JOnr American
gold to Kuro|»eeu coffers, the hoarding
of capital by money king*, the certainty
•f a ester prices for cotton and the de
sire to discharge obligations approach
ing maturity have luduenced our pm*
|1«* to draa togethar their purse strings
It la a condition and not a theory that
confronts the country.

A^tr
1 Aldrici
Stvry.
Col. Alfred Alilrich,of Barnwell, tell*
a good war anecdote about tteti, P. M.
B. Young and some of his staff In one
of the battles in Virginia Gen. Young
was thought by Maj. Church, his adju
tant general, and by Capt. Hubert Aid-
rich, who was assistant adjutant gen
eral, to be mortally wounded. Major
Church, believing that Geu. Y’oung
was going to die, asked Capt. Aldrich
to pray for him, hut the captain replied
that he did not know how', and he In
turn requested the major to pray, but
the latter acknowledged that he too did
not know how to pray. Mr. Sandy
Dunken.of Barnwell, was the orderly
of staff. Maj. Church asked him drat
and then commanded him to pray. Kan
dy gave the same excuse as hi* supe
rior officers, hut he had to obey orders,
like J im Blurisoe—
“He was a careless man in his talk,
And an awkward hand in a row;
But h? never lied and he never flanked,
I reckon he never knowed how."
Sandy took off his cap and knelt by
the stretcher on which the wounded
man lay. He began to pray and to talk
to the Lord in quite a favorable manner,
about as follows: Y'ou know’, Lord,
the general is badly wounded, and not
liable to recover; have mercy on him,
for you know he has been a wicked man.
Just then the general interrupted,
and said : Sandy, what is the use to re
wind the Lord of thaty Why don’t you
gay something good iu my favor y
Sandy being interrupted, was discon
certed and ceased praying, remarking
that he couldn’t pray much nohow, and
if he couldn’t dolt in hia own way, he
wouldn’t do it at all.
The general said that such prayers,
reminding the Lord of his short com
ings, were not calculated to do a man in
fais nx much good, and did not urge
Handy to proceed any further.—Augus
ta Chronicle,
W. II. Johnson died in Chesterfield
county August :*2d,*1890. His wife and
D. J. Jacobs were tried lor bis murder.”
The evidence went to sjiow that they
had given him strychnine In place of
quinine. The jury failed to agree upon
their first trial. Upon their second trial
they were convicted. I^a*t Friday was
fixed for their execution They were
carried to the scaffold and the rope*
put around their neck*. Just as the
Bheriff was about to spring the trap Mr.
D. H. Tompkin*, Private Secretary to
the Governor,' handed the Sheriff an
Executive order granting a reprieve
until the 4th of September. Jacob* and

At a meeting of the Uunines* Agents

The CottouT*p of IfiBl.
The Weather Bureau’s weekly report
issued on Saturday says of the cotton
etop in the different Southern States:
North Carolina—Cotton larg» and
thrifty, fruiting better, though some
shedding.
South Carolina—Early cotton in fine
condition in Eastern and Southern coun
ties, but inferior in Northern and West
ern aection*. Late cotton ha* little
fruit. No damage reported from rust
or caterpillars.
Alabama—Cotton opening rapidly in
South and Middle Alabama and is about
the average, falling off from last year.
Mississippi—Conditions generally fa
vorable, but cotton is late and needs
warmer weather; ills shedding some
what. In the Southern portion cotton
is opening. Few boll worms reported.
Louisiana—^otton in excellent condi
tion, opening in some sections; there is
but little shedding.
Arkansas—Cotton shows slight im
provement, opening in Southwestern
counties.
. Texas—Cotton picking becoming
general, the crop promises a good yield.
Some worms reported but no particular
damage.
Tennessee—Cotton fruiting w’ell; the
warm, dry weather beneficial.
The Law a* to Peddlers.
From the Sunday State we quote the
following section from the reply of the
.Comptroller General’s ottice to the ques
tion, “Will you please write me what
sewing machines taxes are in your
State v ” i
“Yours of the 11th instant to State
treasurer has Iwen referred to this office,
and In reply thereto I will say that sec
tion 1339 general statutes, as amended
.in"!887, requires a license fee of $100 to
be paid to clerk of court in each county,’
by hawkers and peddlers. This applies
to hawkers and peddlers of all goods,
ware* and merchandise except venders
of fruit, maps, newspapers, magazines,
books, vegetables, tobacco, provisions
of any kind or agricultural products, or
■ales by sample by persons traveling
for established commercial houses, or to
sales of staple articles manufactured in
this Ntate.
There teems to be an evasion of taxes
on sewing machine*, and it is intimated
that the comptroller may soon Itcgin
work on them. Hence the importance
of the above quotations.

The first experiments of the govern-
meut to bring rain by the explosion of
itouibs were made in the dry land* of
Texas last week. Copioua rain came a
few hours later over a large extent of
country that had been parched With,
drought for many weeks.
The Cooeaw Company wilI,Yti» »ald,
most positively appeal from the decis
ion of Chief Justice Fuller to the full
bench of the United btatca Supreme
Court. The law allows .them two years
within which to go to the courts of last
resort. Until a final conclusion is
reached Attorney General Pope *hould
be continued in charge of the State’s
case. It is not often well or wise to
change commanders while the battle i*
in progress.
They Haff Been There. t ;
Here is a portion of the examination
to which an old lawyer told a friend
that he was subjected when he applied
for a license. The eldest member of
the examining committee interrogated
him:
“Are you familiar with any game of
chance?”
“No, sir.”
“Don’t you know how to play any
game of cards?”
“No, sir.”
“Surely yon understand euchre?”
** “^Kever-heard-of it-hefore.’ ’—
“It can’t be possible you never in
dulged in a game of draw poker?”
“Yes, sir, it can. I am a’member of
the church and don’t know one card
from another.” / :
“Well (after, a long pause of astonish
ment) young man, we’ll give you a li
cense, but how In the world you’re go
ing to make a living for the first two or
three years after you start to practising
law is a mystery to me.”
