EPTON'S DEFEAT.
The defeat of Epton is a lessn to
every man who expects to make his
living out of politics. We do not
know either Mr. Epton or Mr. Der
ham, and really had no personal inte
rest in the election for comptroller
general.
Mr. Epton was appointed by Gover
nor Ellerbe and Mr. Derham was
taken out of the comptrol.er general's
office, in which place the latter illed
the position of clerk. At the time, it
was said that the Governor appointed
Epton comptroller general and re
moved Derham in order to strengthen
himself politically. We ;do not know
whether such influences actuated the
Governor or not. This motive, how
ever, 'was industriously circulated
over the State at the time. Conse
quently Epton posed as the adminis
tration's candidate and he had to bear
all the shortcomings of the adminis
tration. Derham posed as the victim
of a noitical trade; at any rate this
was the argument used in the cam
paign preceding the election.
Mr. Epton is most highly respected
in Spartanburg, and, it is said, that he
made a most efficient county auditor.
His competency to fill the office of
Comptroller General was not ques
tioned. We believe that it was gene
rally admitted that Mr. Derham was
fully as competent.
Two things in this election we wish
to point out. Mr. Derham was at one
time a member of the Senate, and it
is said that "the feeling of comrade
shlp" got him many votes in Lhat body.
A short time ago we made the point
that a man had to become a member
of the legislature if he aspired to an
office which the.General Assembly fills.
This is a natural influence, and one
that can not be well prevented, ex
cept by having the people name the
officers-all of the officers.
The other point we wish to make is
the folly of depending on the uncer
tainty of politics for your means of
support. Mr. Epton had an office
Auditor for Spartanburg couty-and
-- it is reasonably certain that he' could
have held it longer. H ' was offered
aan do ess thou ht
m ly. He was ,ppoite ,P
now without an office. We s
e-that a man such as he is rep-B
res ied to be will ihave no 'difficulty tb
in obtaining employment, but still his o1
defeat illustrates our point.
We remember a few years ago, Mr.
Win. Edrington, then a very old man,
and a man of more_than ordinary ob
servation, said in an article to T1nz
Nzws AN> HERALD that he had never
known a man that got anything out of 21
politics except poverty. It is very sti
near the truth.
THE General Assembly seems to
have a grudge against Go-v. Ellerbe's A
appointees. Both Epton and Calvo T
have been defeated. We regret Mr.
Calvo's defeat. He ought to have 0
been elected in view of his having
almost completed the work. There
was no complaint that the work was
not done satisfactorily by Mr. Calvo,
and considering that only his father's
misfortune caused the r T-2ney in the
office it would have been - hing but
good faith to have elected the~ son.
IT is fortunate that Senator Mc
Laurin was nominated by the people
in a primrary election. Judging from
the fate of the other appointees of the
Governor, Mr. McLaurin would not
have been elected by the General As- ~
sembly.
A REXARKABLE YOUNG MXAN.
Greenwood Index.
It will be remembered that some
eighit or ten years ago, while the two
little boy~s, John and George, of ? rs.
Anna Swearengen, who is a sister of
the Hon. George D. Tillman and
Senator Ben Tiilman, were out hunt
ing, one of their guns was accidentally
discharged, the discharge striking fall
in the face of John and depriving him
of the sight of both his eycs. Ha is J.j'f
the elder of the two boys. After a few U
months of great suffering, duriog A 1
which time everything that science famil
and money could do for him, was ageni
done, vainly, the boy became hpp up) ai
and cheerful, and returned with re- no pr
newed avidity to his studies, which he lar pr
always loved. After four or fiye Excit
years at the Spartanburg Institute for Pre,n
the Blind, in which he gained the may I
highest honors, even becoming withal KELs
a good piano player, he was sent to Phil
the South Carolina College, f'rom - -
which institution comes now, dated SE~
December 23d, 1897, a report bearing
upon its face seven or eight I's each I to I
followed by two ema?l stars. This
means "highest distinction " A nd
more than this, President Wood ward 1
writes upon the report-sent to Mrs.T
Swearengen-"This is the highest
record in College. Your son is onr
finest student, and I congratulate vou
on his continued and progressive im-Ld
Provement." And yet this bov is
blind. A boy from Edgefield rascheQs Ite
the highest record ever atuained ir'.
the old South Carolina Cole2ge. We ca~
rejoice heartily with his Iridowed Addre
mother.
ALearn all you can,
Learn every day,
Not caring a farthing
For what others say.
Both sides of all questions
Read ghen you can,
Remember all books
Were. written by man.
Be kind to your neighbors
And all whom you meet,
If they di:er with you,
Give them the best seat.
And if they don't treat you
In the same way,
They're meaner than you,
All people will say.
If on your way
You meet with a Jew,
Remember he has the same right
To his opinions as you.
If you lived before
You camo to this world,
You know nothing about it
Any more than a squirrel.
If we live after we leave here,
And don't knew it's us,
There is no use at all
In raising a fass.
After death we go
We know not where;
If I could stay young
I had rather stay here.
If that country
Is better than this,
And we could know,
Why, then, be so unwilling to go?
We have nothing to guiae us
Not even a spark;
If you are honest you'll acknowledge
It's a leap in the dark.
If God has talked to others
And never to you,
Why should he damn you
For not believing it true.
The privilege we ask,
To others let's give
And make this world better
Every day th.t we live.
If God sends us word
By man that will lie,
For not beleving
Why should we die? y ]

Bladder Troubles.
The bladder was created for one
purpose, namely, a receptade for the
urine, and as such it is no-i able to
any form of disease except by .one of
two ways. The first waS is fro'm im
perfeet act*on of the kidneys. ~ The
second way is from careiess local
treatment of other diseases.
SAMPLE SENT FREE.
Unhealthy urine from, unhealthy T
kidneys is the chief cause of bladder
troubles. It is comforting to know
that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root fulfills
every wish in quickly curing bladder
and urinary troubles. It corrects in
ability to hold urine and scalding or
singing pain in passing it, or bad
effects following use of liqnor, wine
or beer, and overcomes that unpleas
ant necessity of being compelled to
get up many times during the night to
urinate. The mild and extraordinary
effect of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is
soon realized. It stands the highest
for its wonderinl cures of the most
distressing car.es. If you need a medi
icine .you should ihave the best. A\
