Some of the newspapers that used to be
conspicuous in their support of the McLaurin
idea now show a disposition to
tumble over all obstacles in getting back
on the Bryan platform.?Florence Times.
We would be glad for our contempofrary
to name the newspapers who are
getting back on the Bryan platform. For
the reason that this newspaper believes iu
many policies advocated by Senator McLaurin
and expects to continue to advocate
them. We think it only just to those
of us who are not ready to change our
opinions at the dictates of the office
holders and politicians, that the names of
those who have recanted should be made
known.
At the campaign meeting here to-morj|jS
row (Thursday) our people will see and
hear from a candidate who is decidedly
I out of the ordinary m several respects.
This man is 1). C. Hey ward, a candidate
for governor, and lie has never held any
kind of political office and is not a
"Colonel." Moreover he is a farmer and
nothing else?has lived on the farm all
his life. We trust he will receive favorable
consideration at the hands of our
people, for without any reflection on the
other gentlemen in the race, he is
thoroughly honest and conscientious, is
able and energetic, is a line business man
and has none of the tricks of the professional
politician or wire-puller. Heyward
is essentially a man of the people, and
we can be assured of a sound, clean, progressive,
business administration if he is
our next chief executive.
The Newberry Herald and News does
not agree entirely with our position in
regard to publishing reports of the State
campaign meetings, but it evidently did
not catch our meaning. Of coarse we
expect to print any matters of interest
which may transpire, and shall endeavor
to publish such facts as will enable our
readers to vote intelligently. But we do
not propose to use our paper as an advertising
medium for these candidates and
consume space by publishing long
speeches during the campaign. A newspaper
has a duty to perform to its sub'scribers,
and they want to know and are
entitled to know all matters of importance
in regard to candidates, necessary to
(enable them to decide how to vote intelligently,
especially in view of the fact that
many men will run for office, who are
comparatively unknown. There is however,
another function of a newspaper,
and that is to publish the news. Therefore
we shall not print speeches which do
not interest our readers to the exclusion
of news matters. Our contemporary
should remember that a newspaper is
published for the benefit of its subscribers,
not the candidates, and it is the first duty
of an editor to give his subscribers what
they want. If our readers wish long reports
of campaign meetings, we wilt give
them, but our experience as a newspaper
.man is that they do not. In the past the
writer has noticed that some weekly
papers would consume half or more of
their available space with reports of State
campaign meetings where each was practically
a repetition of the other, the
" speeches of. the candidates being the same
in effect, but possfMyjclothed in somewhat
different language.
Campaign Meetings.
The State campaign opened Tuesday,the
j*v-- meeting for State candidates being held at

;States Senator speaking at Columbia.
The senatorial meeting was very quiet
and tame, as well as being slimlv attended,
only about 400 persons being present. All
the candidates spoke and declared their
views on national issues, there being no
practical difference in the position of any
of them.
At Sumter J. II. Tillman put a little
ginger into his speech in regard to W. J.
: Talbert, and it seems that there will be
friction between these two candidates.
Both are running for governor, and are
from the same county: Edgerield. D. C.
Heyward, candidate for governor, was
the only speaker who was greeted with
any enthusiasm, and he was heartily applauded
at intervals throughout his
speech, which was a strong and clear-cut
outline of his position on all issues.
XW. F. Stevenson, for attorney general,
made a vigorous speech, and took full advantage
of the vulnerable places in the
speech of his opponent, Mr. Guuter, and
made fun at his expense to the amusement
of the audience.
All. the other speeches were tame.
Tillman, however, attempted to explain
?'y. # the charge of falsifying the record of the
Senate, but his explanation did not satisfy
' the crowd.
It is very plain that the people are tired
of the campaign meetings, as this meeting
was called to order with 198 persons
present. The number gradually increased
?roil oKn?t v>nn iccrc in the house, but
most of these left at dinner time. The
^ meeting was closed with a mere handful
/ present.
There are thirty-three candidates in the
p . State campaign party, and naturally each
one has little time in which to make a
speech.
Praying for Rain in Texas.
Dallas, Tex., June 15.?The serious
condition of crops, owing to the long
drought, continues. A light rain fell in
Dallas today, hut it was not sufficient to
do anj- good. Reports from southern and
central Texas show a worse condition
than reported Friday. In many sections,
it is said, corn has been literally burned
Pup and cotton is suffering severely.
At Taylorall business will he suspended
for one hour, between 11 and 12 o'clock,
tomorrow and prayers for rain will be
offered.
Hundreds of bead of stock are being
shipped away to avoid the drought.
Gen. Vouiuans to Act.
This year botii Attorney General Bel-linger
and Assistant Attorney General
v Gunter are candidates in the primary and
have to make the canvass of the State.
While these officials have arranged so
that one of them can be at the office once
or twice a w eek, sometimes oftener, they
did not think it right to those having
business with the office to leave it at any
time without some one in charge, so they
have engaged Gen. LeKov F. Voumans,
one of the most di>tinguished attorneys
in the State, himself attorney general for
some years, to be in charge of the office
during their absence until Sept. 1. This
is an arrangement that will be appreciated
by those having dealings with the
office.?The State.

John Wesley Gaines?he is fond of
being called by his full name?figures
oftener in The Record, perhaps, than
any other member of the house; not because
he "does things," but simply because
he loves the sound of his own Voice.
Some say he is trying to eclipse the
record of Senator Patterson, who has addressed
the senate 537 times in his six
months' service. When "Bob" Taylor
was governor of Tennessee Gaines called
to see him.
"How are you, Gaines ?" said the governor.
"Have a chair."
"I was elected to congress yesterday,"
was Gaines' somewhat haughty reply,
"and prefer to be called by my title."
"That so ?" queried Gov. "Bob," who
is something of a joker, "Then take two
chairs."?Washington letter to Chicago
Post,
Willing to Help.
A story comes of the pastor of a struggling
but enterprising little church who
was making a fervent appeal to his congregation
for funds toward a new building,
says the Philadelphia Times. When
lie paused in his argument, a well-dressed
gentleman arose, stepped forward, explained
that, although a stranger in their
midst, he had taken an interest in their
effort, and asked to be permitted to subscribe
a thousand dollars. Of course, the
pastor was amazed; a single contribution
of $10 would have been as high as his expectations.
"My dear brother," he exclaimed, "may
I askVour name?"
"Smith, sir. I have just settled in
business in the neighborhood."
"Brother Smith," went on the pastor,
"the Lord will reward you, and will increase
your business a? hundred-fold ? I,
my family, every member of my congrefition,
I am sure, will assist you. Seel?
appeal to them, sir!" And turniug to
the ooncrreo-fttion the nastor asked:
? _ 0?n 1 I
"Now, everybody present who will help
Mr. Smith in his business, arise, please."
The entire assemblage was on its feet
in a second.
"The spirit is there, Brother Smith, as
you see!" the pastor continued. "May
I not with propriety before my flock ask
what is your business ?"
"I'm?I'm an?an undertaker, " stammered
the stranger.

Why the Minister Was Called.
The Bishop of Bath and Wells, who is
to flgure so prominently at the coronation,
standing to the left of the throne of the
king throughout tbe greater portion of
the ceremony, is not exactly noted for
his good looks, says the Marquise de
Fontenoy, in the Philadelphia Press. In
fact, he is rather homely. He is quite
aware of the fact, however, and tells a
good story in this connection at his own
expense. It seems that one day as lie
was riding in an omuibus in Loudon he
was annoyed by tbe persistent staring of
a workiugman on the opposite seat. The
man presently addressed himself to him
as follows:
"You're a parson, ain't you?"
'Well, yes, that is so."
"Look 'ere, parsou,' exclaimed the
man,"would you mind 'comiu' 'onie with
me to see my wife?"
Imagiuing the wife was sick and needing
spiritual assistance the bishop at
much inconvenience to himself, went
with the man. On arriving at the house
the man shouted to his wire to come
dow nstairs, and pointing to the astonished
prelate, cried with a grin of delight:
"Look' e'ere, Sairry. Yer said this
mornin' as I wur the hugliest chap in
England. Now, just yer look at this
bloke !"

Higher Authority.
An Irishman, about whom the Detroit
Free Press tells, had enlisted in the
cavalry service, although lie had never
been ou a horse in his life. He was taken
out for drill with other raw recruits under
command of a sergeant, and, as luck 1
would have it, secured one of the worst
buckers in the whole troop.
"Now, my men," said the sergeant in
addressing them, "no one is allowed to
dismount without orders from a superior '
officer. Remember that." i
Tim was 110 sooner in the saddle than 1
he was hurled heels over head through
the air, and came down so hard that the
breath was almost knocked out of him.
"Murphy," shouted the sergeant, when he
discovered the man spread out ou the
ground, "you dismounted !" ]
"I did."
"Did vou have orders ?" 1
"I did."
"From headquarters, I suppose?" with
a sneer. I
"No, from hindquarters." 1
"Take him to the guardhouse!" ordered 1

CHINESE WASTE PAPER.
Every Scrap With a Printed Character
Upon It Ih Sacred.
You will never find upon the street
or in the rubbish heap a scrap of paper
with Chinese characters written
or printed upon it. An intelligent
Chinaman, questioned as to the reason,
explained the matter in this way:
"Melican man never tears up and
tlows in stleet his Bible or hymnbook.
Chinee liting all same to Chinaman as
Melican man's Bible."
Then he still further elucidated the
mystery by leading the way to the cellar
of a Race street house, in which,
piled up before a gigantic furnace,
were bundles of paper and sacks of letters
and newspapers printed in Chinese
hieroglyphics. . ^
Interpreted into plain English the old
Chinaman's story was that the orientals
regarded the written characters
as so sacred that this furnace was especially
set apart, "after being blessed
by the priests, for the incineration of
all Chinese letters and documents.
So sacred indeed was the Chinese
writiug regarded by the orientals that
the most compromising letters of the
highbinders and the private correspondence
of families were left with
confidence in the care of the furnace
attendant, it being perfectly well
known that he would not risk his im:
mortal soul by committing the deadly
sin of pryiug into correspondence committed
to his care to be given to the
flames.
Nor does the oriental regard the Chinese
writing as safe from the hands of
the infidel even when every scrap of it
has been reduced to ashes. After the
paper has been burned the ashes are
carefully collected, and when enough
has accumulated to make a load they
are shipped on board a boat belonging
to the Chinese Merchants' company,
by which society all such matters are
managed, and taken to sea, where they
are scattered over the surface of the
ocean.
To the Chinaman it is horrifying to
see the white man's newspapers used
for wrapping purposes, his letters
scattered around the streets to be
11 .a a .1 j i i n . _ ?
waineu ou auu uis oiu uooks uuug
around when read as though of no
more sacredness than old boots. A
letter, an envelope, the printed slips
extolling the virtues of preserved ginger
or the characters that advertise
a laundry for sale become, after their
usefulness has passed, as sacred as
the gilded ornaments that add to the
glory of the joss.
One man is employed in Chinatown
to collect the waste paper. He calls at
the stores and the rooms and gathers
it up with the utmost care, tying it in
sacks so that not a shred shall escape.
With his sacred burden he goes to the
furnace room and hands the sacks to
the important personage in charge
there, who stows it away ready for the
next burning day. Twice a week the
furnace is lighted and the sacks of paper
solemnly committed to the flames,
with many incantations.?Philadelphia
Record.
How He Proposed.
He wished to propose to the girl of
his choice, but he was nervous. First
he thought of the old romantic style:
"Bv mv halidom. fair one, I would
fain take thee for my bride. Say thou
wilt be mine, and ere the sun gilds the
turrets of yonder castle the friar shall
unite us in holy bonds."
In the face of the prevalent rage for
dramas of the olden style, this form
seemed satisfactory. Being an eminently
modern young man, however, he
thought again and determined to test
the theatrical mode.
But just at that moment the fair
Mary tripped into the room, and he
blurted out:
"Er?Mary?er?will you?er?well"?
But Mary was far from being contrary.
"Oh, that's all right, George,"
said she, "I know what you mean.
Why, of course, I will. Papa will be
delighted."?New York Herald.
Sacking: Poisonous Wounds.

the poisoned blood. The ancients followed
the same methods, and when Cato
made his famous expedition through
the serpent infested African deserts he
employed many savage snake charmers,
called psylli, to follow the army.
They performed many mysterious rites
over men who were bitten, but the efficacy
of their treatment appears to have
consisted in sucking the wounds.

Sam" Jones on Tom Dixon.
In the Atlanta Journal recently, Sam
Jones was writing of Tom Dixon's novel,
"The Leopard's Spots." He concluded
his remarks on the book by saying, "Get
the book and read it, }'ou can never forget
it," and then writes as follows concerning
its author:
"Tom Dixon'9 lectures sparkle and
scintillate and thrill and move men. He
i9 a live wire, mind how you tread upon it.
If he had been a locomotive engine he
would have been the 999 pulling the Empire
State Express on the New \ ork Central
railroad: if he had been a cvclone he
would have made things whirl and tumble
from one end to the other; if he had been
a horse he would have trotted it in two
minutes two and a half seconds; if he had
been a dog he would have been a grevhound.
Hurrah for Tom and his book. If
Tom had as much religion as he has got
fire and vigor and enthusiasm aud brains
he would set this country on fire. But
God gives all things to no man. Tom has
got religion enough to behave himself as
a rule, and that seems to be about as much
as the average fellow has these days."

At a little dinner the other night the
statement was made that the colored race
had longer memories than white folks.
Mark Twaiu, who was present, agreed
with the remark, and to prove it told the
following:
"Some years ago, when south, I met an
old colored man who claimed to have
known George Washington. I asked
him if he was in the boat when Gen.
Washington crossed the Delaware, and
he instantly replied! 'Lor,' massa, I
steered dat boat.'
"'Well,' said I, "do you remember
when George took the hack at the cherry
tree?'
"He looked worried for a minute, and
then, with a beaming smile, said:

I soon became convinced that I
was cut out for a druggist and straightway
invested $2,000 in a pharmacy.
Cut rates were unknown in those days,
and in a short time I was doing well,
but one day I read of a prominent lawyer
receiving $25,000 as a fee for some
case, and instantly I became imbued
with the idea that I would make a
' t \ ^ ^ A ~
great lawyer. 1 uegitMJieu ujy
business to such an extent that in two
years I was $500 to the bad. In the
meantime I read law diligently. After
a time I graduated as a full fledged disciple
of Blackstone and hung out my
shingle. Business not coming my way
as fast as I thought it should. I opened
a small hotel; result, $1,S00 in the hole.
"Then I tried my hand at real estate,
my legal training helping me greatly,
but the same old story will have to be
recorded here?failure. By this time my
money was nearly all gone. What to do
next was the all absorbing question.
One day a friend convinced me that
big money could be made out of chickens.
I invested every ceut I had left,
$1,200, in hens. At the end of six
months I sold out my hennery for $300.
Then I got a government job, and here
I've been ever since. Shortly after my
arrival in this towr I purchased a little
land in the northwest section. That
investment has yielded me a very
handsome return, and I am now thoroughly
satisfied that the only thing for
a man on a salary to do is to either put
a little each month in some good savings
bank or invest his surplus in land
or bricks and mortar. Remember one
thing ?this is an age of specialists.
Stick to one thing, make a success of
it, and maybe one of these days some
big company will offer you a princely
salary for your knowledge. A rolling
stone gathers no moss or money."?

ORCHARD AND GARDEN.
The average life of raspberry plantations
is about six years.
With grapes the rule should be to dig
deep and plant shallow.
For rooting the best cutting of a
plant is a shoot of new growth just before
it grows woody or at all fibrous.
Trees about the house make it more
attractive and homelike, besides shielding
it from the cold winds of winter
and the hot suns of summer.
Cut the young trees back when placing
them in the ground and also trim
off some of the roots, especially those
that are bruised or broken In any way.
Fruit trees cannot thrive on all kinds
of exhausted soil. The trees will make
a growth of leaves and wood on poor
land, but they require mineral manure
to perfect the fruit.
In most cases when planting shade
trees the hardiness of the trees should
be given preference over rapid growth.
It is of no advantage to secure a shade
tree early only to have it die when
most useful.
Changed the Text.
"Dr. De Witt Talmage during his
visit to England in 1879," says the London
Chronicle, "had been engaged to
preach in a church in oue of the large
towns of England. On arriving at the
building he found it besieged by a
throng of from 15,000 to 20,000 people.
Naturally, he expected the place would
be crowded inside. Instead of this he
was surprised to find it ouly moderately
full.
"'WThy,' he demanded of the pastor,
'don't you let this crowd of people come
in?
" 'Oh,' said he, "each person inside
has paid 4 shillings to get in.'
"Dr. Talmage had intended to preach
from the text, 'Without money and
without price.' He changed his subject"

"John," said the man who was dominated
by his mother-in-law, "do you
believe there is any sense in a man

to do it."
