■— DUTIES or HOME
The word homo seems to oe insepar
ably connected with certain specific
duties. One cannot dwell with tbe
circle of home without being morally
responsible for tbe discharge of special
duties tbat owe their origin to the
home relation. The first duty of
borne in tbe order of development,
since it is developed as scon as the
home Is established is the duty of
buaband and wife to each other. Men
too often forget tbat they owe any
special duties to their wives, and yet
there is no man who has a worthy
wife but owes her a debt be can never
pay. She has given him what fortune
cannot purchase, a human heart. She
has paid him the. highest compliment
thatone human being can pay to an
other. She has told him by actions
that cannot lle lbat be is morelo her
than all tbe associations of her life;
more than tbe sweet playmate of ber
girlhood; more than her sister’s ca
rees and brother’s pride; more than
the love and tenderness of parents;
more than her dear old home. She
leaves all these for him, although ber
heart strlrgw cannot be unwound from
any of them, but be broken and torn
away. Does humara life present a
more touching spectacle than that of
a young bride suppressing her tears
and forcing a smile while she kisses
her mother and father and brother
and sister farewell? How hard heart
ed, how unworthy of ber, bow even
beastly must be the man, if we may
give him that (itle, who does not
under these clrcikmlances feel his
knees bend a with tbe insane
live impulse of adoration. The hus
band can discharge the duties which
he owes to bis wife only, by keeping
perpetually In bis mind that he owes
her a debt to pay which, it will be
necessary to take advantage of every
passing opportunity.

SHALL WE BEAD NOVELS.
Last week we promised to give you
our opinion of novel reading.^ As tbis
opinion costs nothing you cannot
severely complain should it ‘ differ
from your own. Standing as we do,
chin-deep In fictitious literature,-the
question is naturally asked by tbe
young people “Shall we read novels”?
ST-#' ^
There are novels that are pure, good,
elevating to the heart and ennobling
to the life, but while this is true we
have to confess that in our bumble
opinion ninety out 01 every hundred
novels In tbis day are baleful and de
structive in tbe last degree. A pure
etorork of fiction is history and poetry
o,r thablned. It is a history of things
which nd us, with tbe licenses and tbe
ammo t, names of poetry. Tbe world
al m* n In the State. We further re-
cognlz* the fact tbat tbe cotton
manufacturers are desirous of main-
la n ng a stable price fur cotton, and
we b&leve that this organization will
promote the interests of tbe cotton
manufacturers of the south. This is
an age of combination and organiza
tion; other agricultural organizations
have been able to fix and maintain
stable price for tbe commodities to
tbe mutual benefit of producer and
consumer and have succts-sfuily eliini
sated the demor&lizlpg infiuetca of
tbe violent fluctuations consequent
upon reckless speculation, wbica has
proved as disastrous to the manufac
turers as it is to tbe producer.
We declare it to be a necessity for tbe
welfare of tbe cotton growers of the
South to organize for the purpose of
protecting tbe raw material. We wish
to Impress upon tbe cotton growers
tbe fact that they put upon the mar
ket within 90 days the bulk of their
crop and desire tbe commercial world
to take it at its full value; to take tbe
risk of storing, tbe expense of Insur
ing, tbe loss of Interest for nine
months without compensation to the
purchaser, whereas common sense
would teach them that in order to
realiz* the highest price they must
carry these risks themselves and place
upon the market their cotton as the
trade n quires it; in other words, in
stead of selling their cotton from Sep
timber to December, we protest tbat
it is common sensa and business to
perfect a plan by which we may sell
it from September to September. To
this unfortunate custom of dumping
our ootton on the market In so short
a time regardless of demand or price
is largely due the unremunerative
prices to the producer. Wbat is tbe
remedy ? Milhous of dollars are wait
log profitable Investment in good se-
QuritigL The world knows and con
ceives that there is no better security
than cotton. Hence a plan by ahicb
tbe cotton can be retained Jn -the
bands of tbe producer and used as &
collateral upon which he can secure
money at a reasonable rate of interest
to meerweMinjr aebta, Bnabnng~nTm
thereby to place his cotton upon tbe
market at such time and in such
quantity as tbe price justifies is most
ceslrabte^— _gt
To this end we ask ttie cotton pro
ducers in every county in South Caro
lina to meet at once and organize for
tbe purpose of sending delegates to a
meeting in Columbia for the purpise
of formulating a specific plan to car^y
out the ideas ab ive suggested and to
perfect an qiganlzatlon which will
maintain cotton at such price as will
properly compensate the grower. We
congratulate the cotton growers of
tbli State that other cotton produc
ing States are organizing for this pur
pose and tbe future is bright with
promise for a national organization to
maintain a stable and remunerative
price for cotton. With this end in
view we suggest that in each county
ttaejxjtton gias^rs iSiftaableAndjend
voters.
Tnere are States represented on a
basis "of population in which less than
two per cent of the population votes,
while the average vote in others is
anywhere from fifteen to twenty five
per cent. Before the war these States
were allowtd to count three-fifths of
their non-voting slave population;
now ,tbey count the whole of tbeir
non voting free population. Is this
equality?—
There is a district in Mississippi In
which one-half of one per cent of the
population votes; In another only one
person in 133 votes; and votes for John
Sharp Williams, who is protesting
against government without represen
tation in tbe Philippines. One vote in
Mississippi equals from seven to twen
ty-live In any Northern State.” Judge
Parker says he objic'eto government
by ae ohgarehv. Where do you think
tbe Oligarchy is in this,,country, and
whit do you want to do about it?
Tbe accompanying tables show th'
number of votes received by tbe win
ning candidate in eaoh district, tbe
whole number of votes oast in tbe dls
trios, its popu’ation and tbe propor
tion of tbe voters to the population.
It will be observed tbat in many of
tbe Southern States .the successful
candidate ran without opposition pol
ling -th* entire vote cast in his dls
trlct; while in N >rthern States the op
position, devided among several par
ties, frequently oast more votes than
were cast for tbe winner of tbe elec
tion. If a healthy opposition is a sign
of wholesome political life, this fact
Is certainly significant.
Compare the First South Carolina
district, which takes in the city of
C larleston and has a population of
196 390, with IheF.ftb Pennsylvania,
which Includes a part of Puiladelpbia,
population 196 315 Mr. Legate of
South Carolina received 3,749 votes
out of a total of 3.924; Mr. Morrell of
Pennsylvania, 25,358 out of 25,640,
both candidates having practically no
opposition. Mr. Legare received the
votes of one fiftienth of tbe popula
tion of his district. Mr. Morrell the
votes of one-seventh thef population of
his. One voter in South Carolina
equals seven in Pennsylvania.
Compare the Sixth South Carolina
district, population 201,577, with the
First Matsicbusetta, population 201,-
378. In tbe one Mr. Scarborough gets
3 981 votes, with no oppts tion; in tbe
other Mr. Laurence gets 14,093 votes
against an opposition of 12,009. In
Mr. Scarborough’s district one only
person inAO vcted; in Mr. Lawrence’s
the proportion was one In seven.. One
South Carolina vote equals seven In
Massachusetts.
Compare the Seventh South Caro
lina district, population 183,753, with
the Nineteenth New York, population
183,375. In one the successful Demo
cratic candidate was elected by a vote
of 4,220 against an opposition of 167
Republican; in tbe other tbe«Republi-
can candidate got 17,878 votes agaihst
17,338 Democratic and 1,529 divided
among three other factions, the total
vote polled being one fifth of the pop
ulatton, as against one-forty-second of
the population of the Seventh South
Carolina. One voter in South Carolina
equals eight in New York, and doesn't
b&ve to work so bard to elect his man.

ate 132 people in his own district wbo
are not voting to one wbo is it seems

present Congress by the total vote of
bin district, 1,433, and there are 190,*

of them voted.
In the Eighth New Jersey district
Mr. WiJey received 18,814 votes—more
than ten times as many as Mr. Wil

him got 12,006—more than eight

yards fion-the mouth of the tunnel
when the explosion occurred.
“Tbe explosion 1 .was preceded by a
low rumbling sound, resembling an
earthquake, which made the earth
tremble and startled the neighbor
hood. — —
“I looked toward the mine and out
of the mouth of the tunnel and two
air shafts came a great volume of
smoke and dust which continued for.
nearly a minute. Out of the two air
shaft*, each of which is seven feet in
diameuer, timbers that were fully two
to three feet in diameter were shot
into tbe air and broken into splinters.
R icks were thrown over the'eamp for
arbstance of a quxnennrmne' In
fact it rained rocks, broken timbers
and all kinds of debris for fully a min
ute and many people were injured by
being struck with these missiles.
' The explosion, which resembled a
volcanic eruption, caused the wi dest
excitement. Men, women and chil
dren rushed to the m >utb ’of the tun-
oel and wemsn whose husbands were
in the mine bad to be Jorought away

curred employes 80 men and it is be

mine at tbe time. News of the ex
plosion brought assistance from the
adjacent camps Friday night hundred-
of men were trying to enter the mine
Deadly fumes overcame the fescuins
frequ ntiy but their places immediate
ly were taken by others ready to ri»k
their lives. It was not thought pos
si lie that any one in the mine could
escape death.
It was impossible to secure name-
of the dead and Wj ired Friday night.
Nearly all the miners employed arr
Slavs. The expljsloa is supposed to
have been caused by dust. But or.e

occurred.
