MILLIONS 6IVEN AWAY.
It is certainly gratiiyfng to the

the land who are nut afraid to be
generous to the needy and suffering.

Coughs and Colds, have given
away over ten million trial bottles
of this great medicine; and have
the satisfaction of knowing it has
absolutely cured thousands ot
hopeless cases. Asthma. Bronchitis,
Hoarseness and all diseases of
the Throat, Chest and Lungs are
surely cured by it. Call on Crawford
Bros. Druggist, and get a free
trial bottle. Regular size 50c. and

MEN OF THE UNION
TO CONSIDER TRUSTS.
Invitation to Conference in Chicago
Accepted by Hundreds.

Chicago, under whose auspices a
conference will be held in Chicago
Sentember 13-18. to nnn?iHnr
R EN
I-WREKLY.
S. C., WEDNESDAY
of an invitation to attend, the
secretary of agriculture, J. Sterling
Morton of Nebraska, says:
"Trusts which are over-capitalized
are born of the machinations
of shallow and impractical men.
They will fail, and no one be
harmed except those whose credulity
led them to invest in their
securities.
"There is much misapprehension
as to incorporated capital in
the United States. Oratorical
vagarists have endeavored to
make common people believe
that incorporations are not sub
ject to economic lawp of competition,
and that the relation of
supply to demand is not the sole
regulator of values. The fact,
however, remains that money invested
in manufactories or in
railroads belonging to incorporations
is no stronger, no better and
no more exempt from the operation
of commercial laws than the
money which is owned by individuals.
There need be, in my
judgment, no apprehension as to
the trusts crushing out all competition.
"With the exception of the oil
trust and the sugar trust, the failure
among trusts has been universal.
The whisky trust, the
tobacco trust and all the other
trusts of any importance up to
date except those that have been
formed very recently, have been
complete failures. These failures
have come, firstly, from the overcapitalization
; and, secondly,
from mismanagement. Intelligent
competition can enter the
field against any trust on earth
except one which has a natural
monopoly. (By this I mean one
which, like the Standard Oil
company, owns the only oil producing
lands in the country and
successfully puts its products on
the market with the sympathy of
the consumer all on its side)."
Dr. Lyman Abbott of New York
says : "I think what we most need
on the subject of industrial, commercial,
labor and transportation
combinations is just what your
letter indicates this meeting will
endeavor to secure: Light, not
heat. What we need to understand
and what only experience
can teach us is the relation between
competition and combination,
the one the centrifugal, the
other the , centripetal force of
society, lie who believes only in
combination will logically be led
x _ _ .! L - 1: XT ? l n . I
io ninnism. i^euner 01 tnese results
can possibly furnish the
solution of the problems which
now confront us. We must learn
how to secure the advantages of
combinations without destroying
the individual; to maintain broth
erhood in practical forms without!
sinking, obscuring or belittling|
personality."
Hundreds of other letters have I
been received, the writers inj
nearly every case expressing:

the conference.

WAITING FOR DREYFUS.
Place and Time of Landing Still
in Doubt?Demonstration
Feared.
Rrest, June 25.?The French
first-class cruiser Tage put to sea
this evening, the official explana
tion being that she has gone to
experiment with carrier pigeons.

cruiser than the Sfax, which is
bringing Capt. Dreyfus, and the
dispatch of such a big vessel with
carrier pigeons is quite unprecedented.
Usually a torpedo boat is sent,
|
and the opinion, therefore, gains
ground that the Tagc has gone to
meet the Sfax and to take Capt.
Dreyfus on board. The pigeons
can be used to announce the
transfer and the Tage might proceed
to another port to land - the
prisoner.
As against this theory, and as
an indication that the landing of
Dreyfus will be effected here,
there is the fact that a large num
ber orgendermares from the country
around Brest are arriving or
expected to arrive to night.
The treasurer of the amous
league of the French Fatherland
reached Brest this evening from
Paris, and as this organization has
been at the bottom of the antiDreyfus
movement it is thought
he has probably come to organize
a demonstration.
