THCRSD.ll", JCNE 5, 1902. 55,. &W " __ ? corrir>e has WillG JoneS n uexii gicat iiviMw ever rendered the State that he should be appointed United States Senator? Senator Tillman has announced that V?. *v r. * he will oppose the confirmation of W. L. Harris as postmaster at Charleston, on the ground that the appointee is a carpetbagger. We wish him success in his J efforts. m The proposition from the State Democratic executive committee that the various county chairmen should erdeavor to have candidates entertained at private homes is little short of ridiculous. The people of South Carolina are hospitable, but this is carving matters a little too far. c' - The candidates should repudiate this sugS; gestion. This newspaper is not supporting the |> candidacy of U. X. Gunter for Attorney General, but we must commend his action in resigning as secretary of the Democratic State executive committee because fhe is a candidate. No man should run for office while he holds any party position of honor. Office seekers should have no place on county or State committees, be county chairmen or delegates to a convention. A few years ago it was said that many of Tillman's coat-tail swingers were from the country, but now it seems a good many of them "hail from the towns and that they are former conservatives. The reason of their great change is that they want office, and they are of the opinion that now they can slyly get a strong grip on the Senator's coat-tails which will land them into a political job. But they will hardly fool Benjamin. He will be sly enough to use them for his own purposes and at the same time see to it that his true and tried followers are elected to office. And we don't blame him. These latter day converts or friends disgust one by their actions, and Tillman well knows how much faith to put in their protestatiohs of friendship. The Charleston Exposition closed last - f Saturday night, and we sincerely hope that the hard work and sacrifices of the promoters of the enterprise will not be without substantial results, both to that city and the whole State. The show was admirably planned, and that it was carried out successfully in the face of adTerse circumstances is a matter of surprise, and to those who by their efforts brought success where failure seemed probable, we extend sincere congratulations. A considerable amount of money has been spent on the Exposition, and we trust that some of it will come back in the way of indirect benefits. If the benefit derived is at all commensurate with the amount of money and energy expended, the city of Charleston and the entire State of South Carolina will take long strides forward in the next few years. A paper of McLaurinite leanings, the Bamberg Herald, remarks: "The Colum I, bia State savs the convention adopted its r"" views all along the line. As it is- reryl zL*iUaLthe convention acted as Senator Tillman directed, it might be interesting to know whether Tillman has swallowed The State or has The State swallowed Tillman." As several other McLaurinite papers have made similar comments we are moved to suggest if The r, State made a misstatement in the matter it should be very easy to prove it by cita: Wl * tions from its own columns before the |^\' convention me* As this has not been !v" ? attempted in an> quarter it is tacitly conceded that the action taken by the con'' vention was in general accord with the recommendations of The State. The next step in the inquiry is to find out when V: The State made its recommendations and when Senator Tillman made his. That Jg&a; wopia settle the questionofpriority.de??,;* terminin^ which followed the lead of the other. We have yet to see any proof, or ven assertion, that with regard to the v//. most important acts of the convention Tillmon HPllP St<*tP -~f IJCliatVl JL IHLUOU auvivipttvvu x uv n/vmw. The primary pledge, the platform eraj? phasizing the three issues of imperialism, : trusts and the tariff, the censure of Mc,> Laurin, the resolution against child labor iu the cotton mills, the welcome offered to Cuba?all these represented The State's views. Tillman "directed" nothing what/rf.' ever. His influence was given to some of the measures The State advocated, and it ?j&.^ is not our purpose to detract from it. We only insist that the record sustains the statement we made on the morning after the convention and which has been perxg verted or jeered at by those unable to dis" prove it.?Columbia State. Our contemporary has taken our re. marks as a peg upon which to hang some remarks evidently intended for and applicable to other newspapers. We certainly have no desire to rob the State of any credit it may be entitled to for the . work of the convention. If it wants that g- kind of glory, this newspaper is willing for it to get all that is coming to it. Our r- ^ inquiry was intended to bring out the fact as to whether the State had gone over to J ^ Tillman or Tillman had goue over to the State. From our contemporary's remarks it would seem that Tillman had adopted its views, for, if we remember aright, the recent utterance of Senator Tillman through the newspapers was the first time he had expressed himself ou the labor question. Therefore the State is ahead on this. But it is clear, to our mind at least, that the convention's action was entirely in accord with what Senator Tillman wanted, and we firmly believe this action was taken because a large majority of the members knew they would be doing just exactly as Tillman desired. If there had been a clash between the opinions of the State and Senator Tillman, can any one doubt for a moment who the | convention would have followed? Sup-! pose Tillman had advocated one course v. .. and the State another, we believe even our contemporary will admit that it would rnot have been "sustained." But we must ; congratulate our contemporary on being a little in advance of public sentiment, for < if Tillman has gotten on the State's plat- 1 form it is because he has seen that it was a popular one and that the policies ad- ] vocated were popular in South Carolina , and would sooner or later prevail. | .. Denmark High School. Dr.XMAitK,June2.?The commencement exercises of the high school have been a decided success. " Tuesday night the smaller boys and girls made a great hit in a Tom Thumb wedding. "Broadway Bells" was pronounced by many the tinest thing ever seen during commencement in Denmark. All these "bells" are from this town. The girls and boys who took part in the Chinese lantern drill made it a great success. After this came a very fine piece, "The meeting of the Nations." Thursday night we had the pleasure of listening to an" address by Col. D. C. Heyward of Walterboro. " He made a number of friends while here. The graduating class of seven held the boards the next night. On Sunday morning at the Methodist church the commencement sermon was preached by Rev. Jno. G. Beckwith, of Barnwell. This was impressive and very appropriate to the occasion. The teachers, J. A. "Wiggins and Misses Leland, Southard, Reaves, Nance and Leach have been re-elected for another year and have accepteed. The teacher of music, Miss Eugenia Tinsley, of Spartanburg, has been re-elected, but it is not known yet whether she will accept. Mrs. Dr. Strother, of Johnston, is visiting her sister, Mrs. J. B. Guess. Miss Fannie Strother is on a visit to her cousin, Miss Hattie Lee Guess. H. B. Rice, F. Y. James, R. L. Peterson and W. E. Osteen are erecting residences in West End. One of our successful farmers,'Mr. Will Riley, was married last night "to Miss Anna Elwell, a charming young lad}'. The ceremony was performed by Rev. Jno G. Beckwith. Will Not be Postmaster. Washington, June 3.?The president has withdrawn from the senate the nomination of W. L. Harris to be postmaster at Charleston, S. C., and another name will be submitted shortly. Harris's nomination was made last Wednesday but it subsequently developed that he had filed papers setting forth citizenship in New York State, thus making him ineligible for the office. regretted in charleston. Charleston, June 3.?The news was received here to-day that the appointment of W. L. Harris had been withdrawn as postmaster. The withdrawal was generally regretted. The withdrawal is said tnhptpmnnrarv. nendiner an investigation vv w .v?r ju o n in the matter of Harris' citizenship. It was influenced by disgruntled politicians. The hope is expressed that the appointment will be made again, as Harris is the most acceptable of any of the candidates. It is feared that a negro may be given the office, if Harris is not given the place. High-Priced Service. The death of the famous Paris restaurateur, Bignon, recalls some stories of interest. He was among the first to see that the enormously high-priced cafes had seen their day and, selling the famous house in the avenue to the opera, he retired into private life. An amusing story of his revenge is told. One night after an opera ball a gay party trooped in and presisted in being served by Bignon himself. The old gentleman was in bed, but he got up and threw the traditional serviette of the waiter across his arm. When the bill was sent up there was a grief that could have been photographed among the party. At the end of a financially much-spiced note appeared: "For being served by Bignon, 1,000 francs." He got the money after many protests and handed it over to a charity. Actress Took Care of Herself. V/\ntr Tnnn O ?Trvin cr Q 111LVV JLV/HE*., <J UIH/ JUIU AAUU^, M member of the Maurice Grau Opera company, who lives at 131 "West Sixty-third street, is nursing a badly bruised eye as a result of an encounter yesterday with a drunken man at Sixtieth street and Broadway. The man, who said he was James McDonald, of 571 Tenth avenue, didn't get away until he had been soundly thrashed by a crowd of men and Miss Irving had struck him several times in the face with a whip. She was walking up Broadway with her dog, a small collie, when McDonald reeled out of a saloon at, ' Sixtieth Street. He had a Great Dajrfc with him and in one hand held a Sandwich. McDonald set his dog on.ih? collie and there was the liveliest s*r7"of a fight between the dogs.^Arfter some difficulty Miss Irving separated them. Then she walked o^lrtVMcDonald, who seemed to enjoy:eemng the big dog chew up the JjMte, and called him a loafer. For a reply he threw the sandwich in her face and then punched her over the right eye, knocking her down. She is muscular and agile and was on her feet in an instant. She attacked McDonald with a rawhide whip and his face was soon bleeding and welted. She tore his hat to bits and also yanked off some of hi9 clothes. Several hundred men took her side in the fight, and they all jumped on McDonald, using him for a common punching bag. The crowd was so angry that it was all three policemen could do to break through and save McDonald. He was taken to the West Sixty-eight street station and locked up. The police didn't believe that the dog belonged to him and they sent out an alarm, which resulted in William Oldenberg, of 771 Ninth avenue, coming to the station and announcing that the dog had been stolen from him. An enthusiastic son of the Land 0' Cakes, named Burnet, who resides in New York, recently became the proud father of triplets, and promptly named them, Wallace, Bruce and Walter Scott. He will have a whole houseful of "Scottish Chiefs" in his home. According to the Bound Brook, N. J. Record an undertaker's trust is the latest.

Clement A. Garrison tells a story of the : mayor of Portlaud, Oregon, who, upon ] reading that Portland, Maine, was in flames, dispatched the following message to the mayor of the stricken city: "Portland, Orego, bleeds for you. What can we do to aid you ?" > The mayor of Portland, Maine, replied: , "We need food and clothing, and money to buy both," The Oregon man immediately called a meeting of the city council, but the council were so indignant that the mayor had dared wire without consulting them that i they adjourned without action. The mayor 1 was in a quandary, but he felt that he had ^ done his duty, and sent forthwith the ] following to* the mayor of Portland, 1 Maine: J "Thanks for your prompt reply. 1 < asked only for information." 1 "Now, then, Willie," said Uncle John, 'aren't vou tired looking at the mon- < keys?" * i "All right," reluctantly replied the boy, 1 who was on his first visit to the zoo. t 'Now let's go to the place where the ? jrgan grinders' cage is."?Philadelphia f Press. 1 No Color Line Drawn, Lamar Landou, of Georgia, was holding forth last week at an informal reunion ; of the Southern Society in Sherry's says the New York Times. One of the tales of the South tiiat was told was this: A northerner who had never been below Mason and Dixon's line went down last winter. Guided through the country by an old negro, they reached the edge of a stream, and the traveler said to the darkey: "What is that dark object in the water?' " 'Oh, dat's a alligatah, sah,' was the reply. "And what is that other dark thing over there on the sand?' was asked. " 'Dats a alligatah, too, sah,' the guide answered. " 'Then these alligators of yours are amphibious creatures, are they?' queried the northerner. The old negro scratched his head, pondered deeply, finally smiled knowingly, and answered: " 'Oh, yes, sah; yes, sah. Course dey's amphibious. Dey eats niggers jest de same as white folks.'

Old Joe Onor was very deaf, but he got the idea into his head that he could understand perfectly whatever was said to him by simply watching the lips of the person addressing him. He and his hired man Jake were chopping a well-pole, and looking up the road they saw a man in a wagon coming toward them. Old Joe grasped the opportunity to give an exhibition of his wonderful faculties. So addressing Jake he said: "See that man comin' down the road ? Well, I just know what he's goin' to say. He's goin' to ask me what I'm choppin', and I'm goin' to say 'Well-pole.' He's goin' to ask me how fur down I'm goin' to chop it, and I'm goin' to say right down to that there knothole. Then he's goin' to ask me how much I want for it, and I'm goin' to say $2.50. Then he's goin' to say he woirt give it, and I'm goin' to tell him if he don't somebody else will.

"Well, if you don't somebody else will." The stranger moved on, leaving old Joe serenely happy with the consciousness that he had struck it right.

Stories regarding the editorial "we" are always springing up. The last one concerns an editor, who thus described a fight in a car in which he took part: "We entered into conversation with Mr. C. He made mention of the difficulty between us, and we gave our version of the affair. He then called us a liar, and we clinched. In the scramble which followed we got into the aisle and we got him down and were giving him what he deserved when the conductor and some of the passengers came up and interfered.

Each man was told that he might order his own suit, and send the bill to Mr. Armour, no restriction being made as to the price. In order to avail himself fully of ihis liberality, one young man ordered evening clothes costing $80. When the bill was sent in, Mr. Armour sent for the clerk to vouch for its accuracy, and finding it right, assured the man it would be paid.

"A good many yes rs ago," said a well known Michigan lawyer who was reminiscencing the other day, "I became greatly interested in a state prison case. A young farmer was charged with having driven off ten out of a flock of twelve sheep and sold them to a butcher. He put up a fair defense, but was convicted and sentenced to a term of three years. "There were plenty of people who believed that he was perfectly innocent, and even the butcher who bought the sheep came in time: to doubt if he had identified the right party. After the case had stirred up a whole county I took a hand in it. In my petition to the governor I had the evidence of the young man's father, mother and sweetheart, and I got eight of the jurors to sign it. I made out such a good case that the governor took it under advisement and finally agreed to issue a pardon. In speaking to me of the case he said: " 'There is no sort of doubt in my mind that this was a case of mistaken identity, and I shall be only too glad to restore the young man to liberty.' "It became my pleasant duty to drive seven miles over the muddiest of roads to bear the news to the parents that a pardon was to be issued. The old man was under the weather and in bed in a room cff the parlor. The wife received me and sobbed over the good news and then went in to break it to her husband. That partition wall was thin, and they both spoke in loud tones, and 1 plainly heard her say: " 'Oh, Samuel, there's a man here who says our John is to be pardoned tomorrow.* " 'You don t say!' he exclaimed. ** 'Yes; it's certainly so.' "'Going to be pardoned right out, eh?' " 'Yes; he is.' " 'Waal, waal, that's good news. Say, Mary, what a fool John was not to get the other two sheep while he was about it.' "I left the rejoicing farmhouse, intending to wire the governor to withhold the pardon," said the lawyer, "but it presently struck me that I had advanced about twenty good reasons why the young man couldn't be guilty, and I therefore decided to sing small and let things go on. He was duly pardoned and sent home, and the governor never met me for years after without congratulating me on rehabilitating an innocent man wrongly convicted!"?.uetroit Free Press. COOKING HINTS. For a change try boiling apples in sweet cider. When apples begin to get tasteless, this makes a change. Cocoa losi?s that raw taste if it is allowed to simmer for a good five minutes after being added to the boiling milk. A cut potato dropped in the fat in which vegetables are to be fried will indicate the proper temperature by turning brown. Have charcoal fires for broiling -if you wish for perfect cookery. The hot flames close the pores quickly, and the result is very tender meat. For preparing soup for invalids make a great point of delicate flavorings. Avoid much turnip or carrot, and instead have a suspicion of bay leaf, sweet herbs and mace. When roasting a chicken in the oven, roast it. in the usual way until it is nicely brown, then turn it back upward and let it remain so until cooked. It yyj.il Mt &VUUU 1UUI. buv JU'VV v?

At a famous dancing assembly this was the quite audible comment made by several married belles when a beautiful young matron as yet on the outskirts of the exclusive set entered the room. The newcomer, whose first appearance it was, proved herself quite equal to the occasion. She had a nodding acquaintance with nearly every woman in the room. Some of them even went to her luncheon parties. Calmly turning to the most supercilious critic in the room, she echoed as though in reply: "How did I get here? I drove here, my dear Mrs. Crossbeam.

George Schanb, a well known German citizen of New Lebanon, Ohio, is a constant reader of the Dayton Volkszeitung. He knows that this paper aims to advertise only the best in its columns, and when he saw Chamberlain's Pain Balm advertised therein for lame back, he did not hesitate in buying a bottle of it for his wife, who for eight weeks had suffered with the most terrible pains in her back and could get no relief. He says: "After using the Pain Balm for a few days my wife said to me, 4I feel as though born anew,' and before using the entire contents of the bottle the unbearable pains had entirely vanished and she could again take up her household duties." He is very thankful and hopes that all suffering likewise will hear of her wonderful recovery. This valuable liniment is for sale by Bamberg Pharmacy. .Tosiah George, a member of the Carlisle Indian band at the Charleston exposition, committed suicide ou Saturday because his wife caught him with a letter from another woman.
