That price la hardly the val ue of a single medium sized poplar or •jrpres*. Governor Sayers of Texas proposes a convention of the Governors and At torney Generals of the forty-five States to orgtnlze a campaign and outline a general law against trusts. Such a Hue of action is made necessary by the confession of Attorney General Griggs that the National Government cannot reach the trusts. The convention of Women's Clubs will be held In Chester June Mth-lOth. The programme is almost half a leaded column long. Only two men will be allowed to open their qoouths during the sweet proceedings, Lieutenant Governor McSweeney and Editor James T. Bacon of Edgefield, both past masters at such functions. President McKinley must be in a bad way physically. In the early Spring he sought rest and recreation at Thomasvllle, Ga.^A little later he was sent to the Virginia Springs to try hrd* baths for rheumatism and nicotine poisoning. The doctors have ordered film to walk for exercise an hour every day and he Is planning a trip to the North West. TROURLK IN TEXAS. Peports from South-west Texas bring the intelligence that the Mc.xi* can boll weevil hat again made its ap pearance aud begun its depredations on young cotton. Many believed that last winter’s snow and extreme cold bad killed the i>ost, but Its early ap- !>earance this season is discouraging. Unless some means of exterminating Ibis weevil is found South-West Xmwis will have to abandon cotton raising in * few years. _ PRETTY PEDAGOGUES. Misses Ssrah UandW, Kate Habe- nicht and EJolse Welch, of the Spar tanburg Graded Schools, have baen designated by State Superintendent of Education McMahan to assist in the Hummer Institutes for teachers throughout the State. This Is a new departure and It goes without saying that they will draw better attendance and make proceed ings more interesting than prosy col lege professors could do without wo man's help. UNLAWFUL DISCRIMINATION. Capt. Lawton, of the Charleston re cruiting office, has received orders to (•ulist recruits for service in the Phil ippine islands. Only white men are Wanted. The reason for the war de partment’s discrimination against the brethren in black is not given. Race, color or previous condition of servitude may have something to do with it, but more probably the admin istration wishes to hold them in reserve for the Fall elections next year, when according to the signs in the West as well as the East every vote and more too will he needed to keep McKinley A Co. in Washington. 3 excuse for not attending functions pro posed in his honor, but wa| sufficiently well to pronounce himself strongly li favor of the permanent annexation the PhlUppinea. About the same da^o Dr. Pige, Surgeon of Dfwcy’a flag ship) the Olympia, made the statement that tl|e Admiral was and had been fan good health, that he had ortiy obnsult- ed him cklually during the past year, that be slept well, f ate well an<^ was neve# worried by the responsibility on him. Doctors are sometimes mistaken and Surgeon Psge may be in error, but if so be is not flt for the position be occupies. // ‘g As supporting the theory that the Admiral’s return is somew hat a strate gic movement these facts of the situa tion may be quoted: The coming of the rainy season has endetl Active olun- palgnlng against the insurgent Filipi nos. The rice field country is one broad morass unfit for movements of bodies of troops or army trains. While the American troops have been victori ous in every skirmish and battle the insurgents have been too agile in re treat to suffer decisive defeat. The Americans are too fe^y in number to hold the conquered territory and much of country that was over run has been abandoned by them and reoccupied by the untamed Tags Us. Next winter the work of reconquest will have to he dpne over, unless peace is sooner made. The growing unpopularity of the war will he vastly Increased when the and deprecatejd-the American |>eoplc at home learn that the - -*d»nges that hare taken place in the », 0 .i fuller hrirw, * ociHl worlt l «a* stringently campaign has failed to bring the speedy trltfmplr proinjsed by the ad ministration. Andjkat dissatisfaction will turn into indignation when the full tale is told of the sufferings of the soldiers and the sacrifices of life and health in this side chapter of the war for humanity, so called. How great they have been Is show n partially in the experience of the First Nebraska Regiment, which went out a few months ago 1,032 strong. .While there it received 250 rec/uits. Now they are bringii'g Its remains home, and only 200 of the stalwart^ North-Westerners are fit for duty. Tin' others an- ac counted for as dead, disabled by wounds and shattered by sickness.

Talbert is looking well, as a public servant deserves to do, who has a clear conscience that'he has done his duty regardless of consequences. He has the courage of his convictions and has done more than any other represen tative to correct the monstrous pension abominations that are supporting the North and West at the expense pf the South. In his previous terms he has been hampered by contests for his seat, which his good management has de feated, but hereafter he is not likely to have any trouble of that kind, as the Aiken post office plum is large enough for that chronic candidate Cliatfield’, appetite, antLhe wJll bo able to give his entire attention to public affairs and the interests of bis constituents.* As to cen*ua appointments for the next year: In arranging the districts the officials have made new divisions, completely ignoring the Congressional districts as now arranged Hampton is In on ■.

Such arrangement will increase the difficulty of gec.tng census appointments for his constituents, but everybody can he sure that he wiir spare no effort to secure a full propor lion and that under no circumstances will he dicker with the republicans.
