POLIT1CAL AND OTHERWISE.
President McKinley's speech at the
launching of the Ohio speaks volumes.
"* " He says in substance: "The Phillipine
Islands, Hawaii, Tutila and Guam are not
to be acquired?they are already ours."
Let some of the would-be statesmen of
the ten cents type stop and think. This
was the declaration of the President of
the United States, spoken from a city
which was acquired just as Manila was.
When this territory (California) was purchased
from Mexico for $14,000,000 the
.
little statesmen opposed the ratification
of the treaty with Mexico. A" howl was
made. "Ye gods," they cried, "whither
are we drifting ?" "I oppose the taking
of this territory,'* said one senator, "because
we are required to pay $14,000,000
for a territory made up of a salt desert
over which only a vulture can do business,
while the people are untamed Indians
and Spanish cut-throats. English
people can't live there." Another said:
"The acquisition of this territory is contrary
to the spirit of our constitution.
The ratification of this treaty will disrupt
the Union. Only the people of the
thirteen original States have a right to
allow this territory to be acquired. If
any one of them by a vote refuses to
Ranrtion the acouisition. then clearlv the
P compact is illegal and the Supreme Court
must so declare." But the Court did not
^ so declare. The great territory became a
part of our nation. Great is the statesman
who says we cannot hold territories.
Our mission as a nation is to give the
world the benefit of our glorious
government?freedom. What a momentous
occasion to the people was the
|?: . launching of the Ohio. It meant as clearc
ly as words and acts could speak, the day
is past when the American Eagle will
duck his head in the presence of John
Bull, the Russian Bear, or take fright
when the erratic Emperor of Germany
> froths at the mouth because we are sending
iron and cotton goods from the
South to break down German trade. Fill
your pockets by "thrift" is a maxim, the
truth of which is admitted. Open the
harbors of the Orient to trade, Christianity
and civilization if the people of the
Sooth would prosper. When the Ohio
glided into the waters of the Pacific, another
bulldog of the navy was there to
protect and extend American trade. Let
? another be launched, and another, until
our fleet commands the waters of the Atlantic
and Pacific and carry our trade to
all nations and the islands of the sea.
It is interesting to note the force of
events. See how they, affect the people
of other countries. The old Iron Chan
cellor of Germany?Bismarck?earnestly
advocated the founding of colonies by
>; the German nation so as to stop the great
stream of emigration from Germany to
the United States. His cherished hope
was to build up a great colony in South
America, and had selected the nation
which it meant to swallow. The Monroe
doctrine was supposed to be obsolete.
But when the ultimatum from the United
States to Great Britain, in the Yenezuelian
!
controversy, came flashing from the lips
of Uncle Sam, her Majesty's government
stopped and wanted to arbitrate, but the
German press boiled over that this "overgrown
school boy" should be so insolent
and hurried to assure John Bull that he
had the "Vaterland's" support. How
disgusted the Kaiser was when John Bull
accepted the declaration that the Monroe
doctrine was an international obligation,
, and asked the good offices of this government
to bring about an adjustment.
When Dewey had sunk the Spanish
fleet and we were pressing hard the city
of Manila the German fleet was insolent,
until Dewey sent his famous inquiry tor
know "whether his Majesty's government
were at war or at peace with the Unite^
8tates ?" This followed by a guushot
across the bow of a German boat, which
was violating orders, told the Germans
whoW world that Uncle Sam was
there for business, was ready, apt, and
willing. McLaurin voted for the ratification
of the Paris treaty and prevented
German interference. He was right in
voting for the ratification. President
McKinley says our flag is in the Phillipines
to stay. That they are not to be acquired
but are already ours. Cuba will
voluntarily come into the Union as Texas
did. The ship canal will be built and the
Southern ports will be the great shipping
ports. Southern cotton planters will be
the recipients of this greatest blessing by
these changes. Who do the people want
to go to the United States Senate ? Do
they want a weakling, who wall turn to
Tillman as wet nurse?or a "me too"
statesman, or a railroad slave, or a turncoat
politician? If so, let them select
from Latimer, Stevenson, Jones, Henderson
& Co. But if they want a man to
represent the farmers and business men,
let them take the wool hat boy from the
Pee Dee.
McLaurin's enemies are traducing him
and saying all sorts of evil things about
him falsely. Mr. Latimer would feel insulted
if any one said lie had not made
his $100,000 honestly. Some now doubt
it. It is not well for Congressmen to expect
people to believe everything no
more than that everything said about a
Congressman is true. Senator Henderson
will opportunity to explain

your Uncle Jas. Talbert will be telling j
what he is doing with a telegraph frank

of the transgressor is hard." Meu of
clean records are wanted, men of character,
men of brains, men devoted to the
interest of the people, men who are not
^ afraid of the devil or Boss Ben, but dare
to do right.

McLaurin's policy is not only attracting
attention in South Carolina, hut it
seems that Georgia is to have a tight
along the^samc line. T. G. Crenshaw,
one of the Georgia railroad commission,
is out in a strong letter endorsing the
policy of our Junior Senator, lie also
takes occasion to touch up Governor
Candler, who is said to be a candidate for
U. S. Senator from that State.
Bamberg county is not likely to stay in
the political back-ground much longer.
We have the men who are eminently
worthy to fill high positions of State, and
we propose to put them forward. We
have stood aside for others long enough,
and it is now time for us to assert ourselves
It is Dossible that there will be
some surprises before the next campaign
opens. Aspiring politicians may look
out for Bamberg, for if we do enter the
liug we'll make things warm.
Some newspapers in the State who are
of course opposed to McLaurin are working
very hard to get up a joint debate between
Tillman and McLaurin. This is
only a scheme to assist in the defeat of
McLaurin, if possible, and if the junior
Senator will take our advice he will not
thus play into their hands. Tillman is
not the embodiment of the Democracy of
South Carolina now, no matter how much
he may think so, and there is no reason
why McLaurin should indulge in a debate
with him, which would surely be one
of personalities, and not a discussion of
principles. Mr. Tillman can tai k through
his puppet in the campaign next year, but
McLaurin should take no notice of him
now.
It Saved His Leg.
P. A. Danforth, of LaGrange, Ga., suffered
for six months with a frightful running
sore on his leg; but writes that
Bucklen's Arnica Salve wholly cured it in
five days. For ulcers, wounds, piles, it's
the best salve in the world. Cure guar

The Basis of True Intelligence.
Philip Armour, the great Chicago
millionaire, philanthropist and butcher
said: "Give expansion to the brain, so
as to make it a highly organized establishment
for the production of thought."
Such expansion must be based on five
cardinal points viz: observation, inquiry,
reading, attention and retention.
1. Observation is a supreme art and
one of the ripest fruits of the higher
education. We are told the "consummation
of learning is teaching the use of the eye."
The greatest scientists are those that make
original observations. If Sir Isaac Newton,
Copernicus, Archemides, Galileo and
hundreds of others had not observed,
think what our world would be to-day.
It is said of Macauley, the English historian,
that he never attempted a graphic
description of a scene until he first visited
the place and mastered the detail. Nature
is a store house, where we obtain many
grand object lessons. A wealth of
knowledge is held within the tiny seed
cups, bursting buds, the skies, the birds
and the butterfly that woos the flowers,
but sips no honey and dies in a da}-; how
are we to know all this? Observe?
think. ,
2. Inquiry. This word has three derivations,
French enquerir, Spanish inquirir,Latin
inquiro,all meaning the same,
viz: investigation, asking questions for
one's information. The yankees are
noted for their numerous questions and
we can readil)' perceive the benefit they
derive. An inquiring mind is a recep
tive mind, he who learns from the hum|
blest of God's creatures, will be a wise
man. There is a prevailing weakness
among people, that of being ashamed of
their ignorance and prefer to remain in
it, to asking others for information.
Such folks deserve to live and die in their
unenlightened condition. "We mustn't
stop to look" said a couple of girls passing
down the street of a certain city "for
people will call us country crackers" and
away they went with necks stiff as pokei s.
How weak, how devoid of moral stamina!
Just think, if we gain one fact each day
for ten years we will have in our possession
3,650 facts, such a wealth! On this
line there is one other suggestion to le
made, viz: sending wideawake inquiring
children to bed before they are sleepy.
Oh, parents, it is cruel, it issending them
off with an appetite unallayed and though
you mean no harm, you are dwarfing the
first tendrils as they reach out for strength
?don't do it.
3. Reading is understanding characters
or marks by which we inquire into the
unknown. Our information through this
podium depends on the amount we remember
and the kind of literature we read.
The starch and water books that flood the
market nowadays would dry up any brain
to the size of a last years' walnut, for
they contain nothing that thought can
feed on. Lord Lytton says reading without
an object is walking without an exercise.
Read with an object in view, and
let that be for an improvement.
4-5. Attention and retention are closely
allied. I hardly know how to separate
them. The former is concentration, a
fixed thought on what appears to us
through one or more of the senses. The
act of grasping with the "hook of comprehension,"
a given fact. While retention
is the act of retaining or remembering
what we acquire. A good illustration of
these attributes can be found in a school
where cupid has gained entrance, the
victims of his heart poison seldom acquire
or retain much more than the conjugation
of the verb to love !
We are told in books on astronomical
science, that the sun paints his pictures
everywhere. Suppose we had the power of
retaining these photographs, what a gallery
of beauty--a dungeon of woe we would
have combined! I reach now the great
desideratum and ultimatum, viz:
Parents if you want a reading, intelligent,
inquiry offspring, be given to much
reading yourselves, be intelligent, be inquiring.

Denmark Doings.
Dknmauk, May 21.?Thequarterl)' and
final examinations of all classes are being
held at the High School. It is a season
of many regrets to most school children,
because but few are fond of those things
which test the ability and personal equation.
Notwithstanding, examinations are
very essential. They are good things as
mental exercises and are doubly useful
as an antidote to vanity. Children know
much of the imaginary world. The real
is always too real. It is good for them
to learn the distinction while they are in
life's preparatory school." The greatest
leveler of human affairs is a personal
cognizance of the weakness the thought
of deficiency brings to us. A very successful
year's work will soon close.
Teachers are indebted to their patrons for
the general progress of the year, although
.? l?ot: luif.n .1 r?.)r i\f vovnlntinn V.vprv
" *'v"' " " ? ?J
new ideal must meet the critical test. At
times the demands on children were
honorably exacting. But few, if any,
mistakes have been made. This community
owes its teachers a debt of gratitude.
It is very seldom that teachers
please everybody. Such is not the case
even with the present corps of teachers,
but their work for the past year with its
waves of successes and progress, will
ever be an appeal to all patrons and they
will leave Denmark fully conscious of
the high appreciation of the great majority
of patrons. Their places will be hard
to fill, because it is very difficult to select
a number of teachers qualified in every
respect to teach and to mould the character
of boys and girls. Our lady teachers
are exceptionably endowed with the largeness
of true gifts given them by nature.
The school child of to-day will, when he
shall have taken on the maturity of
j'outh, declare greater praise for them
than that which he willingly bestows
now in his exultant youthful enthusiasm.
The commencement exercises will be
very attractive. On Wednesday evening,
May 29, at 8.30 o'clock there will be a
musical entertainment at the school
building under the personal supervision
of the accomplished Miss Connor, who
has been teaching a large class of bright
young ladies. Thursday evening, May
30, 8.30 o'clock, President Henry S.
Hartzog will deliver the annual address
before the school. Friday evening, May

be rendered by various classes of the
school. Sunday, June 2, 11 a. m., at the
Baptist church, Rev. A. C. Wilkins,
Batesburg, S. C., will preach the annual
sermon. The public is cordially invited
to attend these exercises.
Mr. Herman Walker has secured a position
with the Telephone Company, filling
the vacancy caused by the promotion of
Mr. Geo. Riley. A true young man is a
useful supply in the vastuess of commercial
and business life, which is assuming
larger proportions than ever. The
young man seems to be the leader of it
all.
Your correspondent had the occasion a
few days ago to write to the President of
his Alma Mater and received in reply a
beautiful letter and in addition a tract entitled,
"The choice young man." Every
line is philosophy. I beg that you print
it for the benefit of your large number of
intelligent readers. It reads as follows:
THE CHOICE YOUNG MAN.
Money to the simple, healthy sense, is
but the representative of energy and
power. It is to pass from man to man
only as the symbol of some exertion,
some worthy outputtiug of strength and
life. Save in the way of charity, it is not
to be given or taken* without something
behind it which it represents. With his
mind full of this simple, honest truth,
feeling himself ready to earn his living
and to give an equivalent for all that he
receives, the young man ought to have an
instinctive dislike and scorn for all transactions
which would substitute feeble
chance for vigorous desert, and make
him either the giver or receiver of that
which has not even the shadow of an
equivalent or earning. 1 do not say that
gambling and betting are admirable or
respectable tilings in grayneaaen men. it
is not of them or to them that I am
speaking now. I do say that in young
men, with the abundance of life within
them and around them, gambling and
betting, if they be not the result of merest
thoughtlessness, are signs of a premature
demoralization which hardly any
other vice can show. In social life, in
club, in college, or on the street, the willingness
of young men to give or receive
money on the mere turn of chance is a
token of the decay of manliness and selfrespect,
which is* more - alarming than
almost anything besides. It has an inherent
baseuess about it which, not to
feel, shows a base soul. To carry in your
pocket money which has become yours
by 110 use of your manly powers, which
lias ceased to be another man's by no
willing acceptance, on his part, or its
equivalent?that is a degrading thing.
Will it not burn the purse in which you
hold it ? Will it not blight the luxury
for which you spend it? Will you dare
to buy the gift of true love with*it? Will
you oiler it in charity ? Will you pay it
out for the support of your innocent
children? Will it not be a Judas-treasure,
which you must not put into the
treasury because it is the price of blood?
So I rank high among the signs of a
choice, human youth, the clearness of
right and the healthiness of soul which
makes a man refuse to have anything to
do with the transference of property by
chance, which make him hate and despise
betting and gambling, under their most
approved and fashionable and acceptable
forms. Plentiful as those vices are among
us, they still, in some degree, have the
grace to recognize their own disgracefulness
by the way in which they conceal
themselves. Some sort of hiding and
disguise they take instinctively. Let even
that help to open our eyes to what they
really are. To keep clear of concealment,
to keep clear of the need of concealment,
to do nothing which he might not do out
in the middle of Boston Common at noonday?I
cannot say how more and more
that seems to me to be the glory of a
young man's life. It is an awful hour
when the lirst necessity of hiding anything
comes. The whole life is different
thenceforth. When there are questions
tr? )>? f??nr<'il and <?vt'S to be avoided and
subjects which must not be touched, then
the bloom of life is gone. Put off that
day as long as possible. Put it off forever
if you can. And as you will hold no
truth for which you cannot give a reason,
so let yourself be possessed of no dollar
whose history you do not dare to tell."

"Something New Under the Sun."
All doctors have tried to cure catarrh
by the use of powders, acid gases, inhalers
and drugs in paste form. Their
powders dry up the mucuous membranes
causing them to crack open and bleed.
The powerful acids used in the inhaleis
have ontirely eaten away the same membranes
that their makers have aimed to
cure, while pastes and ointments cannot
reacli the disease. An old and experienced
practitioner who has for many
years made a close study and specialty of
the treatment of catarrh, lias at last perfectcd
a treatment which when faithfully
used, not only relieves at once, but permanently
cures ' irrh, by removing the

all inflammation. It is the only remedy
known to science that actually
reaches the afflicted parts. This wonderful

Not a single newspaper has set up claims
to having brains enough to answer a word
of that speech. In acknowledgement of
the want of brains, as well as for the
want of fact, some newspapers have declined
to talk of that^peech, but, in the
face of his disavowal, they continue to
repeat that old story about his effort to
organize a Republican party in this State.
And then they resort to the refuge of
charging him with "voting with the Republicans."

Negro's Prize "Poem."
A South Carolina reader of the "Odd

"South Carolina is often reproached by
the self-righteous people of the North
with oppression of the negro race. Per
contra, statistics show that voluntarily
and without compulsion the States of
the South, and conspiciously South Carolina,
have provided liberally for the education
of the negro and that the white
people of the State have taxed themselves
for that end, the whole burden falling
upon the property holders of the State,
who are white people, the negroes contribntinfr

"Now for the fruits of this generous
expenditure: A recent negro school exhibition
in the territory which used to be
the old slaveholding district of Sumter
was had, at which prizes were offered for
competitors in the 'Ars Poetica,' commonly
known as 'poetry,' and one little
darkey 'tek de prize for poetry.' His
proud mother brought him before her

Where Are the Mothers I
John Jeffries, president of the board of
supervisors, was an agreeable caller at
our office last Monday. He pertinently remarked:
"What has become of the
mothers of the Confederacy? 'Not a |
mention is made of them in connection
with the great reunion." Sponsors, maids ,
of honor, daughters, sons and their retinue
of sponsors and maids, and lastly
the veterans, and not a word of the mothers;
and if any class of people deserve a
halo of glory around their heads it is the
mothers who gave their sons, brothers
and husbands freely to the bloody sacri- <
fice, endured the isolation, horrors of
raids, abuse of vandals, the agony of suspense,
suffered and endured agonies of
mind and hardships of body that the soldier
in the field neither experienced nor
realized. Truly the mothers deserve at
least a recognition in the voluminous ,

Beware of a Cough. '
A cough is not a disease hut a symptom.
Consumption and bronchitis, which are
the most dangerous and fatal diseases,
have for their lirst indication a persistent
cough, and if properly treated as soon
as this cough appears are easily cured.
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy has proven
wonderfully successful, and gained its
wie'e reputation and extensive sale by
its success in curing the diseases which
cause coughing. If it is not beneficial it
will not cost you a cent. For sale by
Bamberg Pharmacy.
More Hell.
A correspondent, writing from Southwest
Georgia, of "The Hell Questions"
drops into this lurid rhyme :
"It doesn't matter what they preach,
Of high and low degree,
The old hell of the Bible
Is hell enough for me!
"I don't know its location?"
Can't say just where 'twill be.
But the old hell of the Bible
Is hell enough for me!
"Twas preached by Paul and Peter?
They spread it wide an' free;
'Twas hell for old John Bunyan,
And it's hell enough for me."
?Frank L. Stanton in Atlanta Constitution.
Biliousness is a condition characterized
by a disturbance of the digestive organs.
The stomach is debilitated, the liver tor
pid, the bowels constipated. There is a
loathing of food, pains in the bowels,
dizziness, coated tongue and vomiting,
first of the undigested or partly digested
food and then of bile. Chamberlain's
Stomach and Liver Tablets allay the disturbances
of the stomach and create a
healthy action and regulate the bowels.
Try them and you are certain to be much
pleased with the result. For sale by
Bamberg Pharmacy.
Tribute of Respect.
Resolved, 1st. That God in His allwise
providence has removed from our
midst Miss Belle Sandifer, one of our
most faithful and earnest Sunday-school
workers. Oh ! how we'll miss her at Sun-,
day-school and at Bethesda (Baptist
church), of which she lias been a faithful ]
member for about three years; and how
they at home will miss her. We all loved
her, but God loved her most. She often
talked of dying and expressed no serious
apprehension as to the future.
2nd. That our hearts have been made
sad by the death of dear Belle, and we
tender the bereaved family the assurance
of our heartfelt sympathy.
3rd. That her labors are ended. No
more fitful hope can be made by us, than
that she should receive the reward due
her, and that it may be our happiness to
live the pure and undellled lives she lived,
and the glorious satisfaction of meeting
death with that calm, submissive and
sublime resignation of hers. We feel that
God has taken one more "Belle" from us
to reign with Him in heaven.
4th. That in her illness hope and
doubt alternated for days together. All
that a tender mother, a devoted brother,
i r_.ai i.i .1
lilld Ml'p-IIlim-1 I'tmui ut? ? iw iiuiic, nui
God in Ilis infinite wisdom took her Sun- |
day afternoon, April '21st. A throng of (
weeping friends laid her gently away in
the Springtown cemetery, and then with
sorrowing hearts turned away again to
life's work and sorrows.
iitli. That a page in our minute hook
he dedicated to her memory, these resolutions
he inscribed thereon, a copy be
sent to the family, to the Baptist Courier,
and to the county papers for publication.
