ARE WE COWARDS? NIT. Tbe following editorial squib up peared in The State of Sept. 10: "A few weeks ago the governor received a request from the sheriff of Pickeus county for one or two companies of militia to prevent negroes from rescuing one of their race who was about to bo hanged. It was reported that negroes were"orgauizing." The governor denied the request, cr tiering the shoritr to use bis powers in drafting a posse. Of course tliore was no organization or danger. To tbe white man of the coast, where the negroes* are as ten to one, and never feared, tbe idea of fenring them in the Piedmont, where the majority is reversed, is inexplicable. Yet pome panicky person sets going somo "organization" yarn every month or two. There is probably as much foundation for the existence of "Before Day" clubs in Georgia and Florida as there was for tbe uprising in Pickens. All bosh." xne otaio neea uavo no mars aooui the courage of I'iokens county's sher* ilY or its citizens. It is truo that thero were rumors of liberation of the negro rourdoror, Henry Jones. It is equally true that such threats had no more dread among Piftkens county citizens than "the whito man on the coast, where the negroes are ivh ten to one, and never feared." Tho reason for the sheriff's call upon the crovernorer for a comoanv of State rnalitia was simply this; Tho sheriff was laboring under tlie impression that the State malitia exists for tho purpose of quelling just such distur bances as "mi(.ht have" arisen, but fortunately did not. He wua aware of course that he Oould deputize every man in the county if neods be, but thought that the State is taxed to keep up the State militia, which ex iBtB for preHorving peace within tho State, nn<l that a company of militia wan not far away and Hhould ho culled into requiwition simply as a roattor of precaution. It won ftnlliorntively roportod here at tho time that a company of State militia in Greenvlllo remained in thoir armory a mnjor portion of the night ready to come to Pickonn at n iiii/iiiuut n iiutir-u. If thoy wore not acting under the instructions of tho governor, the State will please keep mum and not roport the matter to the governor and have the Greenville laddies court martialed. They meant w?ll and felt that in holding themsolvex in readiness to quell a possible disturbance, they wore discharging their duties as soldiers to the State. No, the fact that the sheriff of Pickens county called on the governor for a company of State militia in no indication that the people of this county are cowards. ? Tho fact that tho Greorivillo company remained in their armony subject to onW is a clear indication that they knew their duty aB soldiers to tho 8tato. If The Htate has no fears of cow ardfl nearer home, it noed not worry about tho lack of bravery on tho part of the sturdy inounttAneers. ktetl -"ml How, brother candidate, just be ruiHo you hav?? won out iu the second ntnarv, don't come <o the conclusion hot you lire the whole thing and oau lever be beaten.

The battles along the Yalu river, at Liaho and on to Mukden fade into insignificance compared to the great battles of Manassas that havo been racing in our own country the past week.

Allgood, of Equality, Anderson county, S. O. Thomas was born near Pickens C. H. 32 years ago, moved with his father to Andorson comity when he was a child, in early youth ho professed religion uud joined the Baptist church at Flat R< ck. lie attended school at Kurman University in Greenvillo. When still young he went to Texas, where he wooed and won for his life companion Mies Alice, daughter of Mr. Med Looper, of Texas, but formerly of PickeuB county, S. C. Three years ago Thomas sold out in Texas and movca to nooarc, vyKia. luomns had done well in Oklahoma during bis short stay there. He was held iu high esteem by the best citizens of the community. At the time of his death ho had farming interests out from the city of Hobart, while he .managed a largo hardware business iu the city and received a tine salary tor tho sumo. Tho cauB'j of his death was a little bug crawled into bis oar while he was asleep. The bug was gotten out, but the drum of the ear was punctured and rose, which" called for an operation. After the operatiou it was thought that he would recover, but death came and carried bun across the river. His broken hearted wife with her four little fatherless children came with hid body to.Liberty, B. C., where his body was met by his masonic brethren and carr^d to his father's home. It was a flight never to be forgotten as the loved ones, father, mother, wife, children, sisters, brothers and other relatives and special friends viewed the body for the last time. From there the body was carried to Mt. Pisgah church, where a short funeral sorvice was held by the pastor, Rev. D. W. Hiott, then the masons took charge, and with the burial ceremony of that fraternity, Capt. Qeorgo Rankin officiating, his body was laid away to wait the morning ol the resurrection, when God shall bid it rise. It must have been a great source cm f iuf&i/tf Jr\?? fn Hia luirAiii/twl muiu to see so many of their friend* at the funeral ready to do anything or sa> anything they could to help thorn in their alHiction. It was by far tin largest funeral that this writer ever Haw at that famous old church aud X have boon going there for the past 28 years. Jesun said, "What I do thou knowest not now, but thou shalt know hereafter." We cannot understand the mysterious ways of providence, but after awhile, if it bo right and bent for us, wo will understHnd. We cannot see why tho old and helpless who are praying to bo released from , suffering are kept bore to linger and sutler on, while t bo healthy and strong are suddenly c died away. Lot ue ! place our hands in His and pray tht Lord to load ub. ' Not now. but in the coming years, , It may bo in tho better lund.
