Tho New York Sun, which is own ed out and out by the trustB ?nd which defends their interest on all occasions, calls upon Senator Till man of South Carolina to speak in regard to the candidacy of William Jennings Bryan. It concedes the great influence of the South Caro linian upon tho political sentiment of the South, but says that "the question is one of pure expediency at a critical moment in ihe fortunes of the Democratic party." ''Wc all know," tays tho Sun, "that Tillman doesn't believe that Bryan could win if nominated, and so we hope every thing." That is to say, tho Sun hopes that Mr. Tillman will consent that South Carolina shall be repre sented in tho Convention at Denver by an uninstructed delega tion. "It is not the habit of tho .Southern States," says the Sun, .Vto send instructed delegations. Virgin ia does not, nor yet Louisiana. . Ala bama has.not the habit, nor Tennes see, But there is ono of them that can do more than all the others to keep th? questioniopcn until tho del egates assemble at Denver, and that just now is South Carolina. Sena tor Benjamin R. Tillman has on ly to speak and all will liston anx iously. Will Senator Tillman speak?" Why this great solitude about South Carolina's action in sending dele gates to tho National Democratic Convention on the part of tho Now York Sun, which is ono of tho bitter est Republican papers in 'ho coun try? Why is the Sun so anxious to have Bryan who il admit s will bo elected President, defeated in the nominating convention? ls it be cause Mr. Bryan is too good a Dem ocrat to suit the Trusts, whom the Sun serves? The Sun need not wor ry itself about Senator Tillman, Me is for Bryan and will use his influ ence to have a Bryan delegation sent from this Stale, and all the honeyed words of the Sun will affect him not.

Jf the ideas of this lawyer were carried out there would never be another conviction of a criminal in any of our courts.

A bumper crop of roi (on this year means low prices next Kail. There is no market for goods. The mills cannot soil their products and in consequence they have been compelled to curtail pro duction. A big crop this your means six cents for cotton next Kail.
