Since the last issue of this paper events
Pof the sensational kind have transpired
in South Carolina politics. Senators
Tillman and McLaurin have tendered
their resignations to the governor, and
? ?
therels to be a campaign between them
this fall for the long term in the Senate.
This action was brought about as a result
of the speaking at Gaffnev last Saturday.
t Wednesday of last week Senator McLaurin
made a s]>eech in Greenville, by
appointment and at the invitation of the
most promiuent business men of that
city. In that speech he outlined his policy
and advanced arguments which are
simply unanswerable. We hope to publish
the speech in full in the form of a
W' supplement, so that our readers can read
it for themselves, therefore we shall not
comment on it here. McLaurin had also
been invited to speak at Gaffnev on Saturday
and had accepted. This invitation
was also extended by business men. After,
this invitation had been extended to McLaurin,
Tillman gets himself invited to
speak the same day?thereby in an officious
and cheeky manner injecting him
I sen into a meeting wnere ne was not
wanted and interfered in a matter with
- which he had nothing to do. Let it be
borne in mind that he was invited by a
different committee from that which invited
Senator McLaurin. However, McLaurin
consented to a joint debate with
Tillman, as he was not afraid to meet
. him, or any other man, in a discussion.
The meeting was duly held and McLaurin
spoke first, making a strong, logical
speech on the issues he represents. Tilltman
followed ripping and ranting around
as usual, making no argument against
the views presented by McLaurin but indulging
in the harangue of a demagogue.
McLaurin replied and poured hot shot
into Tillman. The result of the meeting
was that immediately after it was over
Tillman*sent a proposition to McLaurin
for them both to resign. After some
changes, a paper was signed by each of
them and mailed to the governor, tendering
their resignations to take effect September
15th.
This means that there will be a race
for the U. S. Senate between John L. McLaurin
and B. R. Tillman, the campaign
to take place during the months of Octo-.
ber and November, unless some action
shall be taken before that time to free us
from the excitement of a useless political
campaign. As it stands now the seats of
both senators will be vacant after SeptomKor
Thic trill nef>?xcifitp a nrini#rr
for both places. Tillman and McLaurin
Sfe. will undoubtedly make the race for the
long term, and there are several candidates
already spoken of for the short
? term. It seems certain now that the candidates
for the place will be: Latimer,
Wilie Jones, Geo. Johnstone, M. B. McSweeney,
G. Duncan Bellinger, D. S.
Henderson, and possibly others.
When the entries are all in we will
announce our preference of candidates.
jsj&y % In the race between McLaurin and Tillman,
this newspaper will earnestly support
McLaurin. We were both raised in
the same town and have known him all
our life. We know him to be honest in
every way and true to his people and his
State. We have always supported him
heretofore, and our support of him in this
campaign will be no new thing for us.
We regret that we are to have a campaign
this year. There is absolutely no
use for it, and it was brought about by
Tillman's egotism in going to Gaffney,
and meddling. He said in his speech
there: "If vou elect McLaurin I will
take it as notice that you do not want me."
He made a bluff at McLaurin ahoat resigningand
McLaurin called it^ We think
both men made a mistaj^H^resigning,
and hope that the mattf^vill be- settled
in some way withoa^naving a primary
"this year: We'ifre to have one next year
anyway, and we think the people should
have a rest. If Tillman was so anxious
to
fight McLaurin, he should have tendered
his resignation to take effect next
year, and run in the primary next summer.
There was no need for McLaurin to re*
.
1^. sign, as he has to run again next year
an)'way.
The incident has convinced us of a few
things, however:
1. That the so-called "McLaurin movement"
is very strong all over the State.
Ben Tillman doesn't fight spooks.
2. That Tillman thinks he is the strong
est man in the State, and the only one
that can beat McLaurin.
3. That the idea of a primary this year
is to prevent as far as possible the dis-'
semination among the people of the views
held by McLaurin.
4. Tillman sees ahead the downfall of
himself unless he can kill this movement
in its infancy, and that is why he has
thrown himself into the breach.
5. That Tillman and other old-line
politicians t>elieve the only way to defeat
McLaurin is to have the tight on him
made this year, and that thev actuallv
want the extra primary.
Senator Tillman says if McLaurin is a
Democrat he is not. What kind of Democrat
is the senior Senator ? A few years
ago he threatened to leave the Demo- J
cratic party and talked a good deal al>out:
seeing "light in the West." lie also
abused Grover Cleveland, who was at
that time president and naturally the recognized
head of the party. Will Senator
Tillman please inform us if he was a
?.... Democrat then; if not, what was he? If
a Democrat then, what is he now? Wliat
kind of a Democrat was he then and J
what kind of a Democrat is he now?
When is a Populist a Democrat, and
'a** when is a Democrat a Populist ? Can a !
Wt - man be a Democrat and Populist at the
W V;.- same time? As Mr. Tillman lias set himself
up as an>^ample of "Democracy" in
South Carolina, we make bold to ask
these questions.v
We confess to not being posted on
such matters, but if Gov. McSweency lias
the right to refuse to accept the resignations
of Senators Tillman and MeLaurin,
he should do so. It is wrong to plunge
; our people into the turmoil and excitement
of a political campaign this year.
A large majority of the voters don't want
it. and there should be some way to stop
such a piece of foolishness.
When MeLaurin went back to his
home at Bennettsville, from the Galfney
meeting, a large crowd of the best citizens
of his home town went down to his house
and called him up out of bed to assure
him of their support in his race against
Tillman. This shows the confidence the
I men who have known McLaurin intimate[
ly all his life have in hint. We have not
heard that Tillman had any welcome
gathering of his people when be got back
home.
McLaurin and Tillman have set an example
which should be followed by all
aspirants for Senatorial honors. Evenman
who holds a political position should
resign it when he enters the race for the
Senate. For instance, McSweeney should
resigu as governor; Latimer as congressman
; Jones as State chairman; Bellinger
as attorney general; Henderson as State
Senator front Aikeu county. All these
should give up their present positions if
the}- run for U. S. Senator.
Wanted it to Stop Her Talk.
I A woman fainted in town yesterday.
She came in with her husband to see the
circus?any circus is "the" circus, you
know. Under the acres and acres of canvas?every
circus spreads "acres of can
vas," you know?she became suddenly
ill, whether at sight of the roaring lion
or sound of moaning whang-doodle, was
not discovered, but, becoming ill, the good
woman promptly fainted.
A cab was called hurriedly, and the
husband placed his wife in the cab, they 1
were driven hurriedly to the office of a
physician. The physician felt of the
wife's pulse, tested her heart action, and '
then, placing a febrile thermometer in
her mouth, he bade her close her mouth
and keep it shut, she having recovered
her senses.
The wife did as she was bidden, and
the doctor looked steadily at his watch,
his finger on her pulse, and counted; the
seconds run into a minute, two minutes?
.three! And then the husband asked
eagerly and anxiously:
"Say, doc, what'll yer take fer that 1
thing?" pointing to the thermometer.
"Why?" demanded the physician.
" 'Cause hits the first time I ever knowed
'er to hoi' 'er tongue that long."

Drawing the Line on Jackson.
A good story is told in Missouri at the
j expense of its once famous governor,
j Claiborne F. Jackson. Before he solved
! the enigma of love-lock he had married
[ five sisters.!?in reasonable lapses of conj
secutiveness. After one wife had been
[ lost and appropriately mourned he espoused
another, and he kept liis courting
within a narrow circle of his own rela
I tives, for he rather liked the family.
The antiquated father of these girls was
| almost deaf, and when the governor went
I to this octogenarian to ask for his surviving
daughter the following conversation
ensued:
S "I want Lizzie!"
j "Eh?"
"I want you to letmehaveEliz-a-beth!"
"Oh, you want Lizzie, do you. AY hat
for?"
"For my wife!"
"For life?"
"I want?to?marry?her!"
"Oh, yes! Just so. I hear you, boy."
"I'm precious glad you do!" niuJ^erelT
the governor.
"Well," slowly responded the veteran,
"you {needn't holler so that the whole
neighborhood knows itf Yes; you can
have her. Yotrre got 'em all now, my
lad; but-foTgoodness' sake, if anything
happens to that 'ere poor misguided gal,
don't come and ask me for the old woman
!" :
Jackson solemnly promised that he
never would.?Tit-Bits.

Only an Episcopalian.
One of the Southern Bishops enjoys
telling the following story on his own
daughter. Strongly imbued with her
father's doctrine. she had yrown Ul> a
strict Episcopalian, and had never at- 1
tended a revival or camp meeting in her
life, although, as her younger brother re- :
marked, "The woods were full of them."
When she was about sixteen she went '
to visit an old friend of her mother's, in
New York, and her hostess, after much
persuasion, prevailed on her to go to
hear Tom Harrison, the famous boy
evangelist.
"But, Mrs. Burnett," she had finally i
objected, "suppose he would speak to me,
I'd be so frightened I shouldn't know
what to say." ,
"Why, Virginia," her hostess had re- i
plied, "the church will In1 so crowded '
that nothing is more unlikely than he !
should single out either one of us."
But the girls fear's were realized.
As the great preacher left the pulpit
and passed down the aisle, exhorting first ^
this one, then that one, he paused at the ,
pew where the Bishop's daughter was
seated.
"My dear child," he said earnestly, "are 1
you a Christian ?"
. 1
"N?no, sir," she replied/Tm an Episcopalian."
With a twinkle in his his eye the evangelist
passed on without another word.

"Something New Under the Sun."
All doctor* liavc tried to cure catarrh
by the use of powders, acid irases. inhalers
and druirs in paste form. Their
powders dry up the niucuous membranes
causing them to crack open and bleed.
The powerful acids used in the inhalers
have entirely eaten away the same membranes
that their makers have aimed to
cure, while pastes and ointments cannot
reach the disease. An old and experienced
practitioner who has for many
years made a close study and specialty of
the treatment of catarrh, has at last per?

The Champion Horse Liar.
Frank Ingrain, a negro, was tried in
the criminal court at Opelika, Ala., for
horse stealing, says the Anniston Hot
Blast. When placed on the stand he told
the following story, in an interesting,
straightforward manner:
He said he was passing the stable
where the horse in question was, and seeing
the open gate he thought he would
shut it. He decided there was no use to
close the gate if there was no stock inside,
so he looked to see. Seeing the horse there,
he started off to fasten the gate, and
stumbled against a bridle lying on the
up and discovered
that the horse was following him, and the
bridle caught on the horse's head, and being
one that closed with a snap, it
fastened.
Realizing that no one would believe
that the bridle would fasten itself, he decided
he would fasten the gate, climb the
fence and flee, this he did, and the horse
jumped the eight foot fenca and pursued
him. He fled in terror, and the horse ran
him nearly a quarter of a mile. Seeing
that the horse was gaining on him, he got
to one side of the road and squatted partly
down to let the horse pass without
seeing him. The horse ran between his
legs and caught him up on its back and
carried him on. despite his efforts to get
off.
When seven or eight miles from the
stable, he says, the horse became conjured,
*nd told him that he was going to throw
liiin off, which was done. That was the
last he saw of the horse.
lie told the story in dead earnestness,
while the court ollieers stood with bated
breath and gaping mouth, and listened
with awe at the weird story. The jury,
having no case against the horse for kidnapping
the negro, promptly convicted
the negro for the strange ride.
"It is with a good deal of pleasure and
satisfaction ihat I recommend Chamberlain's
Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy,"
says Druggist A. W. Sawtelle, of
Hartford, Conn. "A lady customer, seeing
the remedy exposed for sale ou my
show case, said to me: 'I really believe
that medicine saved my life the past
summer while at the shore,'and she became
so enthusiastic over its merits that
I at once made up my mind to recommend
it in the future. Recently a gentleman
came into my store so overcome
with colic pains that he sank at once to
(lie floor. I gave him a dose of this remedy
which helped him. I repeated the
ilose and in fifteen minutes he left my
store smilingly informing me that he felt
as well as ever." Sold by Bamberg

Taken at His Own Word.
A recent tour of a rather well-known
lecturer included a certain small town
in New England. The lecturer was
waited on by the chairman of the committee
in charge of the alfair, with a request
that he tell him what to say in introducing
the speaker to the audience.
'Tell them any old thing you please,"
was the characteristic reply. "Say, if
roll like, that I'm the most distinguished
man itt the country."
The committeeman was a man without
humor. "Ladies and gentiemen," he begaii,
"I have the honor to introduce to
you Mr. . of New York. I don't
know him. I never saw liini before and
I know nothing about him, but he tells
me he is the most distinguished man in
the United States."
There is one lecturer, now, who thinks
levity is bad taste?unless you Jsnow

It is now generally known ami under- i

were old friends, out several 01 mem uuu
not met before for years. Therefore the *
three-year-old hopeful of Mr. Mac and
Mrs. Mac was not only a new acquaintance
of the others, but was an object of
unusual interest by reason of the manner c
in which the father boasted of the little \
chap's intellectual attainments. 1
While awaiting the appearance of the I
ice cream, Mr. Mac grasped"Be" oppor
tunity to dazzle his friends with the *
brightness of the boy.
"Now, son," he said, "won't you spell
'Jim' for the ladies and gentlemen ?"
?
"J-i-m," reponded Jimmy Mac in faint, t
hesitant voice. t
"That's a good little man " proudly
said the father. "And now spell 'cat.'" t
"C?" said Jimmy, and after consider- s
able thought and some doubt, "a?." 1
"Correct," anounced Mr. Mac. "Now 1
goon." ' . J
But Jimmy apparently had struck a j
snag and the proud parent was compelled j
to volunteer assistance. \
"Don't you remember the last letter?" I
he inquired. "What is it we drink at home t

"Whisky," promptly declared Jimmy.

The Bride at Last Said "Obey."
In Jelling about "Some People I Have

for June, the Rev. D. M. Steele says: ^
"Reins' an Eoisconalian I always use the ;
o * *
formal printed service of the Praver-Book. 1
In this the greatest stickler is 'obey.' B
One day a couple came to me, bringing
as witnesses the parents of both bride and
groom. Everything proceeded smoothly
to the point 'love honor and obey,' when t<
the bride refused to say the last. I re- "
peated it and waited. Again she refused, j'
and I shut up my book. Then there was "
a scene. They talked it over, and the l'
more seriously they argued and discussed ?
the more stubbornly she refused. The T
parents became angry, the groom excited,
and the bride hysterical. To humor her
he joined in the request to have me leave
it out. But I liked the fellow and decided
that a little sternness from me in the ores- n]
ent might be a favor to him in the future. <4
So J told them I had 110 authority to ^
change it and >youJd not do so. I tried (;
to show the foolishness of hpr obipetioji. u]
but it was no use. Finally, I said "to him! ?)(
'Well, this household must have a head u

you will say it.' Then jt was his time tp t ;,j
refuse, which he did. He gathered up ?

presto change! she sprang after him,
led him back by the hand, looked meekly

In a list of the British navy, as it

BILLIARD CUES.
low They Are Blade?America Par- I
nlahen the Best.
"Most billiard cues," said a New York
nanufacturer the other day, "are made
n two pieces?the cue proper and the
landle. The cue Is made generally of
naple, and the butt which is wedge
ihaped, is inserted into a handle of
osewood, snakewood, ebony, maliogmy,
walnut or some other fancy dark
,vood, which Is cut to dovetail with the
ong part I
"The maple wood used Jn making the
landles is sawed into suitable lengths
md seasoned. The logs are then split
nto pieces from which the handles are
nade. These pieces are called bolts.
The bolts are sawed approximately to
lie shape of the handle to be finally
nade, and in this shape they are hanIle
blocks. The handle block Is turned
:o the shape of the handle in a lathe,
tnd when the butt has been fitted it is
inished and polished. j
"The finest and best cues are fitted
:o the handle or butt by means of a
louble wedge. At the top of the cue is
l ferrule of ivory, of horn or bone, in
vbich the leather tip is fitted. While
he ivory ferrule is the most expensive,
>f course it is less durable than the
lorn or bone ferrules, which are less
iable to crack. The extra workman;hip
on cues is put in on the butts,
;ome of which are elaborately inlaid
ind carved in beautiful patterns. I
"There are a number of billiard play*rs
who will not permit another person
:o use their cues, and for the use of
hese particular players cues are turn?d
out from which the tips may be unicrewed,
leaving the cue with unfinished
points and useless. !
"American billiard cues are the lights I
?st, strongest and neatest made any-1
vhere in the world. They are made
n all weights and lengths an<i-nHik in {
)ric?_f.rom_ 30-eents to $25 and more
iach, according to the quality and flash
of the article.?Washington Star.
The Lesson He Wonted.
In his autobiography, "Up From Slavfry,"
Booker T. Washington tells an
mi using anecdote of an old colored
nan who during the days of slavery
ranted to learn how to play on the gular.
In his desire to take guitar lesions
he applied to one of his young
uasters to teach him. But the young
nan, not having much faith in the
ibllity of the slave to master the guiar
at his age, sought to discourage
llm by telling him: "Uncle Jake, I will
five you guitar lessons. But, Jake, I
vlll have to charge you $3 for the first
cbsob, $2 for the second lesson and $1
'or the third lesson. But I will charge
-ou only 25 cents for the last lesson."
Uncle Jake answered: "All right,
>oss, I hires you on dem terms. But,
)oss, I wants yer to be sure an give me
|gt las' lesson first"
