A FACT WITH A MORAL.
If we remember correctly, the Na
tional Bank of Gaffney in its last
statement, reported deposits to
the amount of fj'G'i.OOH. This is a fine
showing for a liank that had been
operating only one year on a capital
of only $.')<).(HXL Besides the National
Bank we have the private bank of A.
N. Wood, which holds deposits to a
large amount. This is a fine showing,
too, for the amount of idle capital in
Cherokee cour.ty. But what does it
show for the general conditions of
the people?
The greater part by far of these de
posits was driven into the banks by
the dread <tf scarcity and hard times.
Just raise the cry of hard times all
over the land any day, and hard
times will omne. Every dollar that
can possibly be spared w-ill be with
drawn from circulation and deposited
in a bank, or hidden away in some
secret drawer, and this, too, at a time
when every dollar is most needed to
bear its part in relieving,present nec
essity and in bracing up .public confi
dence. In the meanwhile, the croak
ers croak till they are exhausted;
the peotple, somehow, icanage to get
along,; the panic diesindts incipiency ;
and then, like frightened birds that
have squatted close to the earth, to
escape the swoop of the hungry
hawk, the money hoarders begin
slowly to raise their heads and look
out upon the surroundings to see if
the danger is past. After assuring
thettiselves of this fact, they again
put their money intoicirculation and
the world moves on.
H«w all this reveals human nature
and reminds us of the ways of the
world an general! W.« do not scout
the idea of true, disinterested friend
ship. That there is such a thing
we have abundant reasons to know,
but, ninety per cent of friends in
general, are of the sunshine and holi
day order. When most needed they
are hardest to find; when not needed
at all, they buz/ along our pathway
like beee among the May-day flowers,
and like .bees still, when the clouds
begin to gather, they »fiy away to the
hive and Jude themsekres in the in
ner cells until the^sun shall shine
out bright and warm again. As Dr.
Johnson truly intimates in his indig
nant letter to Lord Chesterfield, they
quietly look on while you are strug
gling in the waters, aril when you
reach ground they incumber you
with help.
The lesson to the young is, that
they must depend on their own un
aided exertions to give tham position,
honor and fortune in life. If success
crown their efforts, they will have
plenty of ftieads to rejeice with
them. If failure be their Jot, even
after long and patient efTixrt, they
will still hare the proud consciousness
of manhood or of womanhood dwelling
within them—a possession which
friends cannot give, nor hypocrites
take away.
ROOM AT THE TOP.
It is the general impression that
the professions are all crowded, and
ao they are—at the bottom. The
mass of mankind are content to plod
along the dusty highways of life
without casting even a longing look
up to the clearer, purer regions that
encircle the table lands above. The
masses are struggling on the same
plane, and the struggle is a hard one.
He who fights the battle of life on
the common level, fights not for vic
tory but for existence, and he must
be content if lie holds his ground.
He may expect to be crowded. While
he is preparing to step into the wa
ters, which have been troubled by
the angel, ten to one another will
step in before him, for he is surround
ed by millions possessing the eamo
needs and struggling for the same
ends as himself.
He is a sufferer, but neither a
hero nor a martyr. The martyr gives
his life for a cause which he deems
worthy of it, an 1 the hero climbs the
heights and plants his feet firmly on
ground not trodden by the surging
masses and wrtth an unyielding foun
dation and plenty of elbow room, he
makes his blows tell.
Boys and girls if you would not be
“dumb driven cattle,” herded and
jostled in the low-lands of life, you
must climb the mountain peaks that
kiss the skies above you. ^ ou will
not be crowded and outwitted and
underbidden thexo; there is plenty of
room up there, and none but the true
and brave ever tread those heights.
To abandon figurative and to speak
in plain language, it does seem to us
that there never has been a time
when superior abilities were so much
in demand in every department of
life as they are to-day. The number
of men in political life that rise
above mediocrity are few. Ignorance
shows its brazen face in the halls of
legislation, and pettifoggers, and even
illiterates are elevated to high
places of trust and responsibility.
The times call loudly for men of ex
alted character, pure patriotism and
towering ability, but they don't
answer.
In the professions, in business, in
every employment and avocation,
tho lower rounds of the ladder are
crowded and the upper ones are
scarcely occupied. We can find any
number of positions lor young men
and women of first rate ability and
uncompromising integrity. These
positions are hunting for such occu
pants, while the common crowd are
begging for positions and often beg
ging in vain.
(. 1 1 . J!
APPOINTIMiE NEGROES.
The last session of the Legislature passed
a resolution providing fora Commission to
be appointed by tUr Governor to Inquire into
the practibility of establishing a reforma
tory for youthful criminals. Governor Ell-
erhe lias appointed on this commission
Richard Carroll, a negro. We raise much
caiii about RepublUmns appointing negroes,
wliy not eall down a Democratic Governor
when he appoints negroes? Yes, why not?—
Saluda Advocate.
Has our esteemed contemporary
ever considered Richard Carroll’s fit
ness for the position to which he was
appointed? lHas it even considered
that Carroll was the creator of that
commission? True, Carroll has a
black skin, but beneath that ebony
hue lies a heart evidently as true and
patriotic as-ever beat in man’s breast
and instead of censuring our governor
for this appointment he should be
applauded for his good judgement.
We do not advocate the appointment
of negroes to office, but if their char
acter and ability fit them for the
position color should not be the
grounds upon which we condem the
appointing power.

ENTRIES FROM OUR DAY BOOK.
It is much easier to be critical than
to be correct.

The crutch of time does more than
the dub of Hercules.
We soon live down both evil and
good report, if undeserved.

There is a gift beyond the reach .©f
art—of being eloquently silent.

Cejremonies are different in dilfeir-
ent countries and even in different
coin[nunities, but true politeness is
everywhere the same.
The Columbia Register recently
rebuked the News and Courier for an |
offence against good English and, in
so doing, committed itself a greater
one. Ho true it is, .that it is easier to
teach twenty men what were good to
be done than to be one of the twenty
to follow jour own teaching.

Read the account of “Wild John
Starnes” printed in another column.
Such a freak of nature carries us
buck to primitive times, to the cave
dwellers and mound builders. The
facts told by our correspondent are
undeniable, and “Wild John" is some
10,000 years behind the age.
It has been absolutely necessary
to cut some of our correspondents
this week and to leave out several
which arrived too late. Correspon
dents will please get their letters in
by Monday if possible. Also write
nothing but news items. This will
save us much trouble and avoid the
necessity ol cutting down.

Hmai.i. pox is still in the field and
seems to be gaining grouud. In the
country arouud Pelham, a little man
ufacturing town on the line between
Spartanburg and Greenville, there
are over 000 cases. At the Beaumont
and Arkwright mills, in Spartanburg,
it Is taking hold, and we are reliably
informed there are several cases at
Glendale. All should be vaccinaied.
The sc.iro is over, but the danger is
near.

The State Board of Pharmacy held
a meeting in Columbia last week and
resolved to enforce, rigidly, the law
against all druggists wlio do not ob
tain license from the Board. Those
now in business cun have until July
to prepare themselves for examina
tions, and after that time the Board
will employ detectives in every
county to report to the solicitor of
the circuit every druggist who shall
fail to comply with the law.

The Young Men’s Business League,
of Charleston, have offered free en
tertainment to the veterans attend
ing the reunion on the l!7lh of April.
All that they require is that the vet
erans bring their blankets along
with them and inform them before
hand how many will accept the offer.
Adjutant Thomas is already author
ized to report fifteen from Jake Car
penter Camp, and we hope many
others will send in their names in
time to be reported.

It is now fully settled that last
year’s cotton crop was the largest
that has ever been raised on this
earth. The world is glutted with
cotton and a war is in prospect which
will demoralize the cotton industry
and raise the price of provisions. In
the face of these facts, it is said that
the larmers are buying more fertil
izers than they have bought for many
years.
“Whom the gods wish to destroy
they first make mad."
The man who will not heed the
warnings, deserves to be poor.
The war cloud grows darker. The
board of inquiry on the disaster to
the Maine lias at last reached a de
cision, and their report, at this
writing, is on the way to Washington.
By Saturday, it is thought, it will be
laid before Congress and published
to the world. It is pretty well under
stood at this time, however, that the
Maine was blown up by Spaniards,
and the question is, what is going to
be doo-e about it? A money indem
nity will be demanded, but money
will not satisfy the people of the
United States. The independence of
Cuba must be recognized, but that
will not necessarily be a casus belli.
It is certain, however, that complica
tions will arise out of present condi
tions that may easily precipitate a
convict, and both sides are prepar
ing for it with all their might.
out now the iirst clear night,
about £ o’clock, and face towards the
south, and look a little to the west of
the meridUn, about where the sun is
at this time of the year at 1 p. m.. and
you will see the beautiful constella
tion of Orion, the same that Job look
ed on with so much admiration. The
row• of three stars in the center which
!
he called the bands, points to Sirius,
or the iDog Star, in one direction and
to 'the Seven Stars in the other.
Sicius is the brighLeet fixed eCar in!
the .firmament. When that starj
rises and sets with the sun, we have
“dog days." That is all theae is in'
dog days, except a good manyamper-i
•stitions.
After you have gazed for awkile at,
these -wonderful stars, look to the;
•east and you will see the greatest'
planet, Jupiter, about 1 hour high. 1
This planet is abort 1,4<M> times big
ger than our earth. He hue four!
moons and a system of belts running
around his equator, which, uraiex a
small telescope, looks like strips of
narrow ribbon tied around him for
arnamentc. A good spy glass will
show you the moons.

A MOVEMCNT is on foot in Congress
to revive the office of J.ieut. General
and to bestow it on General Miles, as
the senior odficer now in the aruy.
Hitherto the office has been given
only to men of conspicuous ability
and splendid services. If General
Miles lias any ability it has yet to he
demonstrated, and if he has rendered
any eminent services, except the in-
famously eminent ones rendered in
exercising a petty tyranny over Jef
ferson Davis while a prisoner in
Fortress Monroe, tho world has yet
to hear of them. He now claims
tiiat he had orders from the secretary
of war to put his illustrious prisoner
in irons, and perhaps this claim will
be allowed, hut, he cannot claim
that he had orders to heap upon him
insults and goad him to desperation
with little.mean indignities unworthy
of a man and a soldier—to forbid tho
doctor to send meals to Mr. Davis
except at times very inconvenient to
the prisoner, to insist on having him
to eat out of a tin plate and to drink
out of a tin cup,to keep the prisoner’s
clothing in his own possession and to
dole out to him a change of linen
only at such times as the Command
ing General, as he styled himself,
thought proper, to insist on reading
every word that the prisoner wrote to
his wife and family, to dismiss Dr.
Craven because he had given orders
for an overcoat for the enfeebled,
emaciated frame of the noble repre
sentative of tho lost cause.
We sincerely hope that no southern
troops will ever be called on to serve
under such a man.
PRESS OPINION.
Cuba may yet verge to the front us
the primary issue between the United
States and Spain. Every thing is
now favorable to intervention, which
would he a sweet and humane revenge
for Uncle Sam.—Florence Reform
Advocate.

Lieutenant-governor McSweeney
has made a most capable official, and
will be more than likely to defeat any
man who hankers for his shoes. The
genial Colonel is not yet ready to turn
them over to some oue else, and we
don’t blame him.—Sumter Herald.
♦ ♦
It goes withont saying that Colonel
McSweeney will succeed himself as
Lieut-Governor, and it is but right
that he should.- Col. McSweeney has
filled thaoffice with grace and ability
and bis constituents delight to honor
such a man.—Aiken Journel and Re

State senator Scarborough, of Horry
county, will oppose Congressman Nor
ton for re-election from the sixth dis
trict. This was the information
gained bv tire Columbia papers from
a gentleman who is from Air. Scar

position to know what his friend in
tends doing.—Kingstree County Re
cord.

The jury in the case of Charley
Williams, who was tried last Monday
for the murder of Mr. Lee, has been
very much censured by many people
for their recommendation to piercy,
and while we cannot join in this
censure, we think it is very unfortu
nate that the recommendation was
given, as it may furnish some people
with an excuse for lynching in the
future.—Sumter Freeman.
♦ ♦ ♦ ♦-
There’s no doubt about it, Brother
McSweeney has graced the position
to which he was elected and has dig
nified the profession and established
the fact that they are fitted for other
duties than “pencil pushing." Yes he
deserves re-election, and more, pro
motion ; and we herewith nominate
him for Governor tyo years lienee.
We want to see Governor Ellerbe re
elected this term for the reason that
we believe he also # has tried to dis
charge his duty faithfully, fearlessly
and conscientiously and has done
nothing to deserve defeat.—Kershaw
Era.
Of Advantage to Cotton Growers.
The Manufacturer's Record of this
week says:
Messrs. Banks A Co., of Hernando.
Miss., who operates a round-bale
compress, in a letter in which they
refer to the advantages to the South
of the round hale system, say:
"The advantages of it are many.
We are also farmers, as v ell as mer
chants. We figure, and correctly,
fhat vve save $2.50 per bale on every
round hale put up. We gin and wrap
the hale for $2, which is fifty cents
per bale less than charged for the
square bale. We give from three-
eights to one-half cent per pound
more for the round bale. We find a
market for it every day, thireby | re
venting any loss to us on a decline.
Heretofore we have had to ship the
square cotton to Memphis, taking
the chances of the market de
clining while in transit, including
commission, insurance and storage.
With the round bale we get rid of
all this. We sell it on our platform
for more than we get in Memphis for
square bales, without any charges on
it whatever. The round bale means
simply this—that the commission
cotton merchants and compress men
will have to quit the business, and
that means a saving of at least $3.25
per bale to the farmer, as all charges
are figured against cotton in the
price paid the farmer. W r e contem
plate putting in a second press this
year.”
Raising Cotton’s Price.
[Manufacturers’ Record.J
The Philadelphia Inquirer believes
that the new plan of bonded cotton
warehouses as described in the Man
ufacturers’ Record will result in bet
ter prices for cotton. Commenting
editorially upon tho plan the In
quirer says:
“It is a movement of importance
to both North and South, since it can
hardly fail to help establish firmer
prices for cotton ; and as cotton is still
the chief American product of export,
better prices for cotton mean greater
wealth in this country, a quicker
absorption of the American securities
held by European capitalists, a
pro npter establishment of American
financial independence and greater
freedom from the dangers of English
financial panics, to which our habit
of borrowing subjects this country,
often with disastrous results. * * * *
The bonded warehouse will provide
the farmer with the means for raising
working capital, while it takes away
the necessity of breaking the market
for cotton as soon as the crop is
ready."

Marshall is a neat little city of

Texas. Among its many enterprising
merchants is Mr. V. E. Wyatt. In a
recent letter to Dr. Ilarlman. Mr.
Wyatt says: “I have been afllicttd
with la grippe four times ami the
last time was worse than the first. 1
began to think, after trying «everal
remedies without any relief, tiiat the
disease could not be cured. Two
years ago was the last tirno T had an

cided to try Pe-ru-na

by Pe-ra-na, la grippe leaves the sys
tem it a deplorable condition. It
completely demoralizes the nervous
system, deranges digestion and dis
turbs nearly every function of the
body. Pe-ru-na is a perfect specific

Taylor to Jones.
Nashville Term.. March 17.—Sam
Jones in his sermon Monday criticised
Governor Taylor for his free use of
the pardoning power. When he was
asked about the matter the Governor
said:
"I think it comes in poor taste for
Sam Jones to talk this way. Had it
riot been for the pardoning power
Sam Jones would have been in hell
long ugo. I have only about ten
months to serve in the governor’s
office, and during that time I expect
to do whatever 1 think is right and
for the best interests of the people
and all the devils in or out of hell
can’t keep me from doing my duty as
I see it.”
