It mKjb«true that tlte Republican
party In thla county is split into fac
tions, but there is very large room for
doubt and disbelief. But little has been
heard of any such difference until now,
and the proceedings of tbelr conven
tions and the nomination of two tickets
look very much like a ruso to throw
Democrats off their guard and cause
them to lose Interest In the election to
be held next Tuesday. They may hope
to capture the election of delegates
from this county to the Constitutional
Convention through Democratic apa
thy. .
It won’t do to trust to appe-vrancAi in
this world, and on next Tuesday the
Republican vote will be pretty solid for
one ticket.
The full vote of the Democratic party
ef Barnwell County should be polled
next Tuesday. That will Insure suc
cess and mark Its complete and honor
able reconciliation. Let every Dem
ocrat hunt up his registration certifi
cate, tell his neighbors who may not
read the papers so that between 8 a. m.
and 4 p. ra. on next Tuesday every
Democrat in the county will vote for
Robert Aldrich, G. Duncan Bellinger,
C. M. tilers, W.C. Smith, A. Howard
l*dtteraon, Geo. II. Bates.
,Ab**t Fertilisers.
While many crops in this county
have been,jut off somewhat by the
drouth many more have exceeded
planting time calculation# uwtexpee-
; tatlons. Good farmers account for this
unexpected excellence In a very
reasonable way. They say that the
seasons have been exactly suited to the
times, and that the fertilisers ap
plied In former years and not taken up
by the ctops have got in their work
this year.
Now, what about next year? The
surplus commercial fertilizers in the
soil will be exhausted by this year’s
crops, and the fields now green and
flourishing will need help to grow
good crops In ’»«. The low price of
cotton and the little demand for other
crops have shown our farmers that
there Is no profit In the use of com^
snerclal fertilizers. No farmer can
make compost enough to supply his en
tire place, and few can afford to “rest
their lands as was the case before the
war. '
The field pea Is coming to the ^front
as tbe beat renovator of Southern soil
and It deserves all the praise It has
ever received, and more too. The ar
ticle from ITof. Newman, published
this week may eeem extravagant, but
we think It is about as near the exact
truth as a book farmer can get. The
experience of many Barnwell Co'Jnty
farthers, especially in the Eastern
townahips, has proved that the value
of the pea crop Is fully as great as I’rof
Newman says it is. It Is not too late
now to plant them for fertilizing pur
poses. If drilled from a planter In the
cotton alleys, a peck to the acre, they
-will put the ground in fine vigor for
next year, without doing any damage
to the cotton. That’s tbe testimony of
men who have tried and proved this
method of getting good and cheap
plant food. Crimson clover U another
crop much praised In the up country.
KVe do not know if It has been tried In
the lower part of the state, but would
be glad to hear from one who has had
experience with It.. Dean be sown any
time in the fall, up to December, gives
good Spring pasturage and then plowed
In Is said to furnish twenty five dollars
worth of fertilizing material to the
acre. Tbe seed costs 10 to 15 cents a
pound and ten pounds is enough for
an acre.
"Mftjoi L.T. IzlArhas contributed sev
eral strong and well considered letters
to tbe News and Courier suggesting
amendments to criminal procedure In
tended to aecuro swift trial forihe un
pardonable class of offenses, and In so
doing avoid tbe too frequent appeals to
Judge Lynch.

Here is n bit of new law, to be found
In the Acts of the Legislature of .South
Carolina for 1884, pages 808 and 810,
Sectionreads as follows:
Every person who, being appointed
a coffljtulasloner or malinger oi election,
or clerk to cDhcr the boar
or clerk to elbhcr the board of man
agers or of commissioners, who shall
refnae or fall to act as such without
Lawful excuse, or.who, acting aa such,
shall fall to open a poll at the time and
required < ‘
to keei
place required of them by this Act, or
en the same open, as herein re
quired, or who shall make or aid in
making any false count or return of
vote# cast, ,pr shall commit anv fraud
In the management of the said election,
shall be punished as prescribed In the
preceding section.”
The preceding Section prescribes
that offenders “shall be punished by a

WATER.
HY PKOVKSHOR W. TKRTBH I.AXDKR.
Ho many disease germs are introduced
Into the system through drinking wa
ter that nothing can be more important
than to have the water supply pure. A
feeling of general lassitude of any one
In the household, suggests the likeli
hood that something may be wrong
with the water supply. The examina
tion of the water Is a matter of very lit
tle difficulty; but. if not rlght’y done,
the insult may he misleading. Incase
of doubt, It Is only ssffa to take it for
granted that the water is bad, and use
the following simple, but efficient, pre
caution rTowder a I'iecc of copperas
as large as your thumb, and throw it in
the well. The nextday repeat the dose
and so continue dally until coffee made
from the water tastes Inky. This indi
cates that enough copperas has been
added to kill the disease germs, and
there is a little excess., This excess,
by the way Is not injurious, but is
wholesome. After gelling the disease
l erms killed, a dose of copperas given
the well once a week will generally be
all that is needed to keep the water
wholesome. It is fairest to put in the
copperas In the morning.
Home other medicines arc efficient;
but perhaps the above Is best In ordi
nary liamls. Halt or lime, or both, are
often used In the belief that the.water
Is purified thereby, but they arc ntter-
Iv useless for such purpose’. Indeed,
the presence of salt in water Is always
taken aa suggestive of contamination
from cxcrementitlous matter.

ing loaves of bread too rapidly after
taking them from the oven.- “Much i t
the souring of bread,” says Dr. Woods,
“Isdoubtlcss due to lack of care during
cooling. Owing to the high watercon-
tents and the large amount of nitroge
nous substances and sugar which bread
contains, It Is es|»eeially, while warm,
a good soil for the development of va
rious kinds of molds and bacteria. A
loaf of bread,” he adds, “hot from the
oven, taken into a poorly ventilated
room filled with people, will become
sour In the course of two or three hours.

Advises Holding Cotton:
Hector D. Lane, of Montgomery. Ala.,
President of the American Cotton
Growers Protective Association, has
been looking at the cotton crop in Tex
as. On Haturday ho Issued from Gal
veston an address to tbe cotton planters
of the South. He says that a systematic
effort is being made to depress the price
of this crop and get it below value. He
closes by saying : ^
1 have made a tour of the cotton belt
of Texas, and after careful Investiga
tion l am prepared to raise my farmer
estimates of sixteen percent, to twen
ty-five percent, decrease In acreage.
1 find about two and a half |»er cent,
of cotton land abandoned, worms in
some section* doing considerable dam
age, and groat-injury In a large and
most productive portion by rain. The
crop is three weeks late and drought
II ©
still continues. 1 advise farmers to
move their crops to markets just as
slowly as possible, and not allow them
selves to he terrorized to hurriedly
rushing their cotton to markets in a few
montliH, hut to hold hack what there Is
and ‘thereby realize handsome results
by a judicious distribution.
The Agricultural Bureau also issued
its ootton cion report for August on
Haturday, putting Its condition at 77.R
the lowest ever reported for this month!
and prices went up 15 to 17 points.

How To SJpfp Correctly".
Don’t adopt any habitual attitude
when yon go sleep. As you are w hen
you drop away Into the arms of Mor
pheus you are likely to stay for soma
time, and if you tie yourself up In hard
knots, before they are untied by the
soothing power of slumber they will
leave their impress. Round shoulders,
uneven hips, protruding collar bones,
to say nothing of the horrid wrinkles
from squeezing the eyes shut ami knit
ting the face into lines and furrows,
are a few of the tvlls which result from
not knowing how to go to steep. Even
young women are to listen and take
warning, for the bad work is soon done,
and it is hard to undo. Lie fiat on the
back, on a mattress, which is not too
soft, ths head on a small pillow. The
room must be cool and the olothing
warm hut light. The eyes should be
lightly closed and. the hands left easily
at the sides. Don’t draw the corners
of your mouth down, which will make
those ugly creases from the nose to
ward the chin. It is easy to cultivate
this sense of relaxation. Learn to
Imagine yourself heav^ as if you
couldn’t help letting a ton’s weight
down on the mattress. Take a lesson
from the baby; he- sleeps in utter
physical abandonment. That Is why
no falls out of bed, and why, as he
grows older and 1 egins to keep the ten
sion of waking hours through slumber
time, he stops falling out of bed.
Witch tonight and see how you k «re
managing it, and if you aro on your
arms, are crossing your knees, putting
your hands above you on your pillow,
crowding your toes iu between the
mattress and footboard, tucking your
hand under your cheek, curving your
self around like a parenthesis uiai k—'
stop all or anyjsuch practices right
away, and try simple, relaxed repose.—
