.."And they didn't succeed in proving it
on Alderman Oliveros at Aiken."?Anderson
Daily Mail. Oh, yes, they proved
it all right, but the jury evidently didn't
listen to the testimony.
It is expecting too much that lynchers
should be convicted in South Carolina,
but a vigorous prosecution by the authorities
would make the pastime too expensive
to be indulged in.
Judge Purdy holds that a prisoner can
not be granted bail after being convictet
of manslaughter, pending an appeal t<
the supreme court. We ought to hav<
more judges like him.
The patriots in South Carolina are no1
rushing over each other in their eagernes?
to contribute to the national Democrats
( campaign fund. Bat in case Parker it
> elected there'll be plenty of the boys ai
the pie counter.
Some newspapers are of the opinior.
. that we have been "brutally frank" ii
discussing the matter of judges. Well,
we are not given to mincing words when
Occasion demands, and now, if ever, is the
time for plain speaking.
"Clear it of suspicion or kill it" is the
cry all over the State in reference to the
dispensary. Well, we are of the opinion
that it will have to be killed, for it has
been under suspicion ever since its institution?twelve
years.
Crime is expensive, and those who are
so ready to put aside the law when it
suits their convenience should remember
ihe cost in dollars and cents if in no other
way. There would be precious little for
the courts to do if it were not for criminal
cases. ^ ns
J. W. Walker, who haibeen contesting
the nomination of his opponent in the
nrimarr havinc been denied
I? i/CtUWiawv j , Q
redress by the county executive committee,
has announced his candidacy for
county supervisor of Greenville county
in the general election. The committee
should have ordered another primary and
settled the question without letting it go
to the general election. The fight will no
doubt be bitter and much harm be done.
Contests between Democrats in the
general election is a situation greatly to
be deplored, but if the party is to be turned
into a partisan machine by those in
Charge, the sooner self-respecting men
refuse to be bossed, the better. The general
management of party affairs in this
State is not what it should be by any
manner of means. Democracy should
express the will of the people, and the
party should not be turned into a machine
to further the interests of politicians.
Partisanship should have no place in party
management.
We do not know that it will do any
good for us to remind the Democratic
roters that next Tuesday is election day,
)ut we propose to do our duty in this
natter. It is a duty which every white man
md Democrat owes his State to cast his
wdlot for the Democratic nominees. The
Republicans have nominated candidates
or congress, and we should see that there
3 no possible ground for contests. This

ote. Over one hundred thousand votes
were polled in this State in the recent
primary. We should poll aS many in the
general election next Tuesday.
Persuasion and Confession.
"Did I understand you to say that this
boy voluntarily confessed his share in the
mischief done to the school house?" asked
the magistrate, addressing the determined
looking female parent of a small
and dirty boy. says Cassell's Saturday
Journal. *
"Yes, sir, he did," responded the woman.
"I just had to persuade him a little,
and then he told me the whole thing
voluntarily.
"How did you persuade him ?" queried
his worship.
"Well, first I gave him a good thrashing,"
said the firm parent, "and then I
put him to bed without any supper and
took his clothes away and told him he'd
stay in bed till he'd confessed what he'd
done, if 'twas the rest of his days, and I
should thrash him again in the morning.
And in less than an hour he told me the
whole story voluntarily."
The court of general sessions will open
next Monday, Judge J. C. Klugh, of Abbeville,
presiding. There are seven prisoners
in jail for trial, two colored persons
charged wiih murder, and five with
less grave offences. The criminal business
will probably be completed before
the end of the first week.?Barnwell
People.
MAKING MATCHES.
Band Labor and Slow Method* Whoa
the Industry Was New.
The first really efficient lucifer match
must be put to the credit of Mr. John
Walker of Stockton-on-Tees, who in
the year 1827 placed them on the market
under the name of "Congrevea," in
compliment to Sir William Congreve,
the inventor of the war rocket These
matches were sold for a shilling a box,
which contained, besides a few dozen
of the matches, a little piece of folded
sandpaper, through which each splint
of wood had to be drawn before it
could be made to inflame. An original
tin box, stamped with the royal arms
and bearing the word "Congreve," is
preserved as a curiosity in one of the
London museums.
As in the case of all other industries,
this one was initiated by hand labor
alone. The spllnta of wood wsre no
doubt originally dipped in the igniting
composition one by one, but subsequently
they were tied up in bundles
and dipped en bloc, the workman giving
each bundle s twist with his hands
so that the end of each splint would
be free to move to a certain extent
and absorb a littls .more of the-compound
than it would if kept quite stilL
The next advance was to fix the splints
in a frame so that each was separated
from lta neighbor, and this frame, containing
about 1^500 matches, would be
brought down on a marble slab upon
which the composition was apreaa.
The tipped matches, still in their
frame, would then be dried in air for
a few hours and afterward placed In
a heated chamber to complete their
desiccation. Manual labor la now almost
wholly dispensed with in the
manufacture of matches. The employment
of yellow phosphorus for the
charging of matches made the industry
a very unhealthy one, and the
workpeople, if not in the best of
health, ran the risk of contracting a
terrible disease known as necrosis of
the jawbone, the vulgar name for
which was "phossy Jaw." With improvements
in manufacture this evil
has now been eliminated.?Chambers'.
YOUTH AND AGE.
Tho Thoughts That Fill*4 tho Maidea
and the Old Lady.
It was 9 o'clock in the evening, the
night of the great dance in the assembly
room.
She was almost ready. A few final
touches, a little readjustment before
the mirror, and then, beautiful and
stately, slie stepped oat into the hall
and slowly descended the stairs.
She was very young, bat her calm,
serious face, her ease and perfect poise
and other certain little gestures of
surety in herself indicated that she
was not new at the business of the
evening. Somehow there was a touch
sadness to her face.
she passed down the stairs she
paused in front of the library, with he'
party wrap over her arm. In the library,
her face half shaded from the
evening lamp, sat an old woman. Her
silver hair was smoothed back from a
forehead that time had. not spared
from wrinkles.
She looked up from the book she was
reading with a bright smile.
"Off again, my dear?" she said.
"Yes, grandma. It's another dance.
I had to go. But if s so tiresome."
She sat down wearily and gazed for
a moment absently into the flickering
fire on the hearth. There was a brief
silence; then the old woman spoke:
"My dear, you do not seem yourself
tonight Of what are you thinking?"
Her granddaughter looked up.
"Of the past," she said, with a sigh.
And then she said as she rose and
gathered up her wraps:
"But, granny, you seem unusually
cheerful tonight Of what pray, are
you thinking?"'
And the old woman replied, "My
dear, I was thinking of the future."?
Twentieth Century Home.
The Tomato.
The tomato has a curious history.
After the revolution of Santo D>
mlngo many French families can e
from there to Philadelphia, where they
introduced their favorite "pomme
d'amour." Although introduced from
South America as early as 1596 into
England, it was looked upon with suspicion
and its specific name, lycopersicum,
derived from lykos (wolf) and
pens Ikon (a peach), referring to the
beautiful but deceptive appearance of
its fruit, intimates pretty closely the
kind of estimation in which it was
held- It is now, however, almost
universally used.
Her Test.
An Oregon newspaper man says he
was once traveling in the back country
of Oregon, and, going to a little inn
for lodging, was surprised to see a
large picture of Dr. Edward Everett
Hale on the wall. The woman of the
house explained it thus: "Well, you
see, a good many strangers come here
and want me to keep 'em, and I don't
know anything about 'em, but if they
know Edward Everett Hale's picture
I know they're good for something,
and I let 'em stay."
Father's Reward.
"Why don't you go to work and earn
mrkrtaxr aa T did q+ rmir flw?"
"My dear father," said the complacent
youth, "If I were to go ahead and
work, what would be the use of your
having done so?"?Washington Star.
Jast a Hint.
Mr. Sloman?It's so strange that we
have no national flower. We certainly
should have one. Miss Waite (significantly)?Yes;
I think the orange blossom
would be nice.?Philadelphia
