Senator Tillman has issued an interview
in the daily newspapers denying
? the charge that he has meddled in the
?.,u?natnri?i ripp He savs he has
guuciuavwtwi w
nothing to do with it and that any man
is free to enter the race.
We are ceriaiuly very much mistaken
in the people of South Carolina if the exposing
of the shortcomings or moral
delinquencies of any man, no matter by
whom, will raise him in their esteem. It
is an insult to the intelligence of the
voter to say in effect: Don't lay bare the
bad moral character of this man, for that
Pwill make votes for him. The trouble is,
the newspapers of this State have been
too lenient in many instances regarding
the private lives and moral characters of
many men offering for public positions
of trust and honor, and the State and its
? people have suffered thereby.
Senator Tillman has written a letter to
Mr. T. R. Waring, editor of the Charleston
Evening Post, in which he says that
though opposed to the candidacy of Mr.
George F. VonKolnitz for the State Senate
^ in a Democratic primary, there is no way
by which he can be kept out under the
rules of the party. It seems to be well
known that Mr. VonKolnitz was possessed
of decided Republican tendencies a few
years ago, and we must submit that he is
hardly the proper or fitting representative
of the Democracy of Charleston. However,
it appears that he will be nominated
without opposition, although Senator
Tillman declares if this happens he will
not interest himself further in Charleston's
behalf.

In f:ict, one can tind in this State almost
any kind of Democracy extant. We have
Tillman Democrats and anti-Tillman
Democrats, Bryan Democrats and antiBryan
Democrats, dispensary Democrats
and anti-dispensary Democrats, imperialism
Democrats and anti-imperialism
Democrats, child labor Democrats and
anti-child labor Democrats, Commercial
Democrats, McKinley Democrats, and so
on atmost without number. The dispenty
N sary law has been put in the State platform
and yet there are men who are candidates
in the Democratic primary opposed
to this plank. The recent State
- convention declared against child labor
in the mills and yet fliere are legislative
P candidates in several counties who hold

exactly opposite. And amidst all
this tangle and confusion there is no
statesman, not even "our noble leader,"
. who can get things straight and tell us
where we are at. And nationally, affairs
are in aoout as bad or worse shape. But
down in this section we are, as Bill Arp

"When Edward Payson Hammond, the
great revivalist, passed through Illinois
in the late sixties he did not neglect Galesburg,
he felt that Galesburg generally
needed him, and that Ox-Horn Marshall
needed him in particular.
A crown of glory awaited any revivaiist
who could win to the heavenly way John
Marshall, the Galesburg tailor, whose
store sign was a pair of huge, wide-curved
horns, arching above his door. No one,
in Galesburg who knew of Marshall and
his record put any faith in the old saw
that it takes nine tailors to make a man.
* It was generally conceded that Ox-Horns
Marshall, when he was properly loaded
and carefully aimed in the direction of
serious trouble, could attend to any nine
men of the vicinity, near or remote. The
ox-horns, which were his crudely improvised
heraldic device, were acknowledged
to be no more than justly typical
of his strength and of his prowess in such
bickerings as the Illinois of that clamorous
day provided.
With Hammond, religion came to Galesburg.
And, as it came to Galesburg with
its wrath and its repeutance, it came to
Ox-Horns Marshall.
> He reformed.
Galesburg, dazed at first, at last accepted
the wonder of his reformation; but it
hastened its eveuing meal in order to go
to church and gaze with awe upoa this
child of evil from whom the blackuess
had been washed out. The glory of his
amendment spread in undiminished radiance
from town to town, and traveling
salesmen?roysteriug friends of his in
the uuregenerate days?attended the revival
meetings in order to see Ox-Horns
Marshall bow that terrifying front of his
in earnest, humble prayer.
There were four of them in the rear of
the sacred edifice, one night, when the
reformed oue felt the time had couie for
him to play a Christian's active part. He
walked forward, seized the plate, and
began to take up the collection. He did
not see his friends of sin until he came
directly to their pew: he was suffering
from the stage fright which seizes every
man to whom that solemn plate is first
introduced with all its stern responsibilities.
Their presence took him by surprise.
But his courage rose with the emergency.
"Chip in. boys!" he whispered hoarsely.

Ai til'sTA, Ga., August 2.?The strike in
the King mill, which was inaugurated
April 7, was officially declared off by
unions here to-day. They claim the strike

A YOUNti LADY'S LIFE SAVED.
At Panama, Columbia, by Chamberlain's
Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy.
Dr. Chas. H. Utter, a prominent physician,
of Panama, Columbia, in a recent
letter states: "Last March 1 had a patient
a young lady sixteen years of age, who
had a very bad attack of dysentery.
Everything I prescribed for her proved
ineffectual and she was growing worse
every hour. Her parents were sure she
would die. She had become so weak
that she could not turn over in bed.
What to do at. this critical moment was
a study for me, but I thought of Chamberlain's
Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy and as a last resort prescribed it.
The most wonderful result was effected.

better; inside of three days she was upon

Izlar, occurred last night at Milledgeville,
Ga., where she had been taken several
days ago for a change and for medical
treatment. Mrs. Izlar's health has not
been good for some time, but it has been

It is with joy I tell you what Kodol
did for me. I was troubled with my
stomach for several months. Upon being
advised to use Kodol, I did so, and words
cannot tell the good it has done me. A
neighbor had dyspepsia so that he had
tried most everything. I told him to use
Kodol. Words of gratitude have come
to me from him because I recommended
it.-?Geo. W. Fry, Viola, Iowa. Health
and strength, of mind and body, depend
on the stomach, and normal activity of
the digestive organs. Kodol, the great
reconstructive tonic, cures all stomach
and bowel troubles, indigestion, dyspepsia.
Kodol digests any good food you
eat. Take a dose after meals. Bamberg

FACT AND RUMOR.
The Story of One Postponed Cabinet 1
Council In bu(;land. 1
Cabinet councils give rise at times s
to rumors that dodge fact and mislead ]
public expectancy. One of Lord Beaconstield's
supplies a case in point.
Queen Victoria, so runs the tale, was
anxious about the state of wind and '
wave in the mid-Atlantic, which the *
Princess Louise happened then to be 1
crossing. A lord in waiting knew a j
professor who was a weather diviner, <
and to him he went with a message j
from her majesty, who sent also a mes- <
sage to Lord Beaconsfield. The lord '
in waiting was sent to a theatrical (
supper?It was Sunday night?in search
of the professor. Him he found in
this lively company and was himself r
constrained to listen to the game of j
words tt.at was passing round. Which <
would they choose if they had to mar- j
ry, Gladstone or Disraeli? All said
"Disraeli" except one, and she said
"Gladstone, so that I might elope with "
JJisraeil anu ureaK nis near*..
The lord in waiting, much diverted, j
went forth and, finding Disraeli In j
rather low spirits, told him this tale <
as an instance of his great popularity '
with all classes of the queen's sub- 1
jects. The whimsicality of the thing .
was congenial to Disraeli, who was '
kept waiting next day at a cabinet ]
council for the arrival of an important 1
colleague. To pass the time he told the <
assembled ministers the story of the s
theatrical supper. Lord Cairns (absit
omen), hearing, did not smile, and his
solemnity put out of countenance the
prime minister, who at once made the
nonarrival of the colleague an excuse
for postponing the council for a couple
of hours. The "balance of power" ]
was then unstable, and that afternoon \
the papers had headings: "War Immi- j
nent. A Second Cabinet Council Sum- '
moned." For once the ladies of the !

THE USE OF COTTON SEED OIL AS
FOOD.
How it Came Into General Use and Why It j
Gained in Popularity?It is Site
and Wholesome.
From the earliest Bible times; to the
present day nations of the countries
surrounding the Mediterranean have
made the oil of the olive one of their
principal articles of diet. It Is used In
111 cooking operations and replaces the
butter and lard of the nations in northern
Europe. There is no question but
what a pure vegetable oil is a most
jseful and healthy article of diet. We
never read of dyspepsia and troubles
>f a similar nature among the people
>f the Levant, doubtless because the
fat taken as a necessary part of a well
regulated diet Is always taken as a
pure vegetable oil. In our own coun.
try up to within the last few years
>11 has been used but little as an ar*
ticle of diet, except by Europeans who
lave made their homes in our midst.
SVe have clung to the traditions of our
Saxon ancestors and used the hard fats
prepared from hogs and cattle. The
people of this country are beginning to
realize their mistake. Throughout our
jouthern States we have trees, small
t is true, but great in numbers, which
produce a fruit far more wonderful
ihan the olive, we refer to our cotton
plant. Its fiber clothes the world, Its
seed yields an oil which is unrivaled
n sweetness and purity by the finest
product of the pressed olive.
Cotton seed oil was refined in small
iuantities prior to the Civil war. It
found its way to Europe and came back
n fancy bottles mixed with olive oil.
[n the early 80's the production of the
>il increased rapidly. Great quantities
Inding their way to Chicago in mys:eriously
marked packages, the contents
)f which properly blended with other
naterial, traveled all over the world in
:he form of lard.
About the year 1887 it was discovered
:hat the amount of lard shipped from
Chicago greatly exceeded the weight
)t all the hogs received and an invesJgation
was instituted by Congress
vhich brought forth the information
:hat the product of the cotton seed was
mtirely unobjectionable as an article
)f diet and liable to be preferred by
nany to that of the hog. For various
easons our people have always been
prejudiced against the oil itself, though
mating large quantities of it in the
form of lard compound. This prejuiice
is no doubt largely due to the
aulty refining methods used by many
)f the manufacturers who turned out
in oil of unpleasant flavor which gave
)lf very disagreeable odors in cooking.
Vlodern science has shed its rays on
his great product of our section and
he oil fis now produced in enormous
iuantities, absolutely free from odor
ind flavor and almost colorless. Shipped
n barrels it finds its way into the larg>st
bake shops of the country, where
t takes the place of many tons of lard
ind butter. Packed in hermitically
sealed cans it is invading kitchens of
>ur best families. It is making friends
tvery where. The greatly extended use
>f cotton seed oil in the household has
idded greatly to the wealth of our farmirs
by making a sure market for all
he seed which they can produce. This
apid Increase in the use of the oil has
>nly been made possible by improved
eflning methods which were the reults
of long, patient and expensive ex>eriments
by the leading company in
he business. Such experiments could
nly be made by the combined reources
centered in a large corporation
vhich can command the needed brains
nd materials and furnish the necesary
money outlay to conduct expenive
experiments on a practical scale.

WHILE WE SLEEP.
The Mtmclea and Organs of the Body
Are Still Working.
If the organs of the body cannot be
said to sleep, neither can the voluntary
muscles. Wituess the phenomena of
sleepwalking, the postilions in stagecoach
days who slept in their saddles
and cavalrymen who do it today. Infantry
who have been known to sleep
on forced marches, sentinels who walk
their beats carrying their guns in a
fixed position while they sleep. For
all we know policemen may do it too.
People who talk in their sleep are familiar
to all of us. Experiments made
by Speir, Armstrong and Child on 200
college students of both sexes showed
that 47 per cent of the men and 37
per cent of the women talked in their
sleep. A number of things might be
proved by these statistics. Of these
sleep talkers one-half of the women
and one-third of the men are able to
answer questions while asleep. More
women than men could answer questions
on any subject, not alone that of
which they had been talking. It has
also been found that most sleep talkers
are under twenty-five years of age.
Evidently, then, with the muscles
and organs of the body all working, it
is the brain only that sleeps, and by

of sight, hearing, touch, smell and
taste may be very much awake while
the subject sleeps. A sleeping person
hears and answers questions, rearranges*
his bedclothing, covers his eyes
to keep out the light, draws away his
hand when the experimenter tickles it
A chi!;d is broken of the habit of sucking
his thumb while asleep by puttfng
aloes on it. He is conscious of the bitter
taste and dreams of wormwood.
The nerves, then, and the brain centers
corresponding to them are awake.

FLOWER AND TREE.
Fruit trees and fruit require potash
t for their best development.
With house plants all extreme
! changes of temperature should be
avoided.
Too many trees prevent rapid growth
and extend the time when a grove is
i well shaded.
Grapevines like their roots to be near
the surface, and the food for them
should not be placed at too great a
depth.
Small growth and too much small
fruit go together. Thrifty growth furnishes
a few large and fine specimens
of fruit
There is no use in growing a tree
very tall. The top limbs are apt to become
slender and break if fruit is produced
on them.
All members of the poppy family are
hard to transplant. By choosing a
rainy day and not exposing the roots
one can sometimes manage a transference.
Avoid straight lines as much as possi!
ble. There is no straight line in nature.

What Puzzled Louis.
Louis Philippe was a wit. What he
specially excelled in was the clinching
of an argument, such as, for instance,
his final remark on the death of Talleyrand.
He had paid him a visit the day
before. When the news of the prince's
death was brought to him, he said,
"Are you sure he is dead?" "Very
sure, sire," was the answer. "Why,
did not your raajesty himself notice
yesterday that he was dying?" "I did,
but there is no judging from appearances
with Talleyrand, and I have
been asking myself for the last four
and twenty hours what interest he
could possibly have in departing at
this particular moment"
A Queer Library.
A curious collection of books is contained
in the .'library of Warstentein,
near Cassel, in Germany. The books
appear at first sight to be logs of wood,
but each volume is really a complete
history of the tree it represents. The
back shows the bark, in which a small
place is cut to write the scientific and
common name as a title. One side
shows the tree trunk in its natural
j state, and the other is polished and
varnished. Inside are shown the leaves,
fruit, fiber and insect parasites, to
which is added a full description of the
tree and its products.

Editor DeCamp, haviug ascertained at
the GafTney meeting, that James Tillman I
bad not the shadow of resentment when
grave charges were made against him,
has concluded to hold up and let the
Lieutenant-Governor enjoy his disgrace.
He says:
"We have no inclination to pursue the
subject further, more than to state that
Jim Tillman's druukeuuess in Columbia
is notorious. He attended the Keeley
Institute in Columbia, where he was
treated for alcoholism, was arrested in
Augusta, Ga., for gambling anddrinkiug,
and we have it on the best authority that
he misappropriated funds belonging to
the Ladies' Monument Association of
Edgefield?tifty dollars contributed by
William C. Whitney?and failed to turn
over to a North Carolina firm money collected
from J. A. Attaway, Saluda, S. C.
