Those farmers who sowed -p
wheat last fall are independent
of the recent big advance in
wheat and flour. Those who ni
have to buy their flour should u
resolve to sow wheat this fall.

The Greenville News points vv
out that there has been a rainfall
there of 9.49 inches during
the month of June against an ^
average in past years of only tl
inches. Crops are in bad 11
shapo and wheat and oats are (j
in bad shape and wheat and oats y
aro sprouting in the fields. Rev.
Mr. Watson who has just returned
from a months visit
there says it rained almost every
day he was there, and when it
did not rain there it rained in m
sight. k

Prohibition ia Not Intended to

From the report of Howard Patterson's oam- S
palgn speech ^
Go!. Iioyt, the nominee of the
Prohibition convention, in the
platform which he wrote and
which was adopted by the con- c<
vention last month, that Neil jr
Dow, the great Prohibition leader
of the State of Maine, said that
the people of Maine saved by
Prohibition over $24,000,000 a ^
year, and that at that time, after ;
they had had Prohibition for al 81
most balf a century, they sold ct
clandestinely about $1,000,000 al
Whereas, under the dispensary a.
. law only $1,788,425.80 was sold w
lawfully last year in South Garo
** lina. Think of it! A Prohibition ni
State for 40 years selling $ 1,000, ^
000 worth of liquor a year. F
Therefore we have more Prohibi re
tion in South Carolina, under the F
dispensary law, than they have p<
in Maine, with a law against the
sale of liquor.
i ne attorney generals report 0j
shows that (luring the year 1898
there were over 1,600 indict- ttl
merits for the violation of the j)
law in Maine. If there were over
1,600 indictments, how many
violations of the law were there
that never came to light?
Col. Iloyt says in effect: "Let w
us all, all opponents ot the (lis- c<
pensary, go together as tar as we *
can, and when we have gone far 81
enough to destroy the great whis- 1'
key machine, which is the chief (?(
impediment to Prohibition, then ^
let us agree,as we can,upon a plan e|
which will give Prohibition a n
major part of the territory wrest
ed from the common enemy."
Now what do you think of t?
this, you who are Prohibitionists a
from principle? Here is the can a
lidate of the Prohibition party ^
favoring a return to the saloon a
system in some counties and Pro p
hibition in others. What is it all p
for? The man who does it simply
wants office. Columbia, Charleston,
Greenville, and Spartanburg J*'
may wish the license system, and
that would be a winning card to e
play. ?

"There is but one smalt chance to b
save your life and that is through an '
operation," was the awful prospect I
set before Mrs. I. II. Hunt, of Fame b
Midge, Wis., by her doctor after vain- K
ly trying to cure her of a frightful d
case or stomacti trouble and yellow w
jaundice. He didn't, count on the mar- 0
velous power of Electric Bitters, to
cure Stomach and Liver troubles, hut
she heard' of it, took seven bottles, v
was wholly cured, avoided surgeon's i.
knife, now weighs more and feels bet?er
than ever It's positively guaranteed
to cure Stomach, Liver and Kid- y
ney troubles and never disappoints. H

THE FAMOUS CLOCK.
A young lady of Chester, Mist '
Bertlui St aim, who is traveling
in Europe, refers in a letter t< ^
the Reporter to the famous clock <
at Strassburg ~s follows :
Last night we arrived at
Strassburg, and have visited tin 4
cathedral liere, which contains {
the most famous clock in the
world. The little chapel in the
cathedral is crowded every da} <
to see the clock strike twelve J
When it strikes twelve the fig
Lires of the twelve apostles move *
iround and bow before the figire
of Christ and as 1'eter pass^
by a large cock (laps his- t
wings and crows, a little angel 1
turns his hour glass, which t
runs again for twenty-four hours '
ind many other interesting ]
lungs occur. This clock was ?
milt in 1335 and has a calender
let for 9999 years. It marks
>ach year and even the days of 1
the leap years are told with ex- }
ictness. it nas tno earth and t
ilauets rotations around the
tun, and the changes of the I
noon. It is said that the peo- *
lie put out the eyes of the maker
if the clock, for fear he would
nake another. And this is a <
rue tale. '
