The second primary will be
held on the 12th, Tuesday week.
If you are interested in the results
of that contest you should
make it a point to go to the polls
and vote.
With the China war abating
and peace in sight, the South
need not take the advice of the
New England competitors and
shut down her cotton mills, or
cease to build new ones.
THE TRUSTS AND FARMERS.
The trusts combined and raised
the price of nearly every commercial
commodity, and with the
aid of a protective tariff, got great
profits out of the laboring classes
and bled the consumers, mainly
farmers.

on farm products. The
year book of the department of
Agriculture for 1899, which has
recently been issued, shows that
the farin products and farm animals
in 1899, although vastly in
creased in quantity aince 1890,
had fallen off in value to the ex
tent of 706,969,971. This only
counts as farm products corn and
wheat, oat?, barley, rye, buck
wheat, potatoes, hay and cotton.

brought the same prices as did

Solving the Negro Problem.
Detroit, Mich., Special.?The
State Federation Colored Women
has adopted a memorial to Pres
ident McKinley, petitioning him
*_ ?.i. n. ? ?? ii.. ?i.1
LU tlOIV VUU^r^BB IU jJWj tllt9 W1UUW
of the late Postmaster Baker, of
Lake City, S. C., $40,000 in lieu
of the life of her husband, which
was lost during a race riot in that
country. The memorial thus also
states: l,We would like to ask
for a law to be enacted to this
I
effect, that should any Srato he (
found guilty of mob law and
lynching it be expelled from the
Union. The blacks then could
evacuate and all the negro haters .
could have a State of their own,
wherein they need not see a black
face. Thus we solve the negro
problem."
The Canton (Mi8B.) Times calls
upon the farmers to reflect and
act. It says
"The great disaster to the cot
ton crop this year, and which
happens about every six or seven
years, ought to put the thoughtful,
real farmer to weighing matters
in the realm of real facts. It
is hardly possible for a farmer to
lose or nearly lose one crop out
of six and prosper. He should
then turn his attention to some
things to fortify him against the
great and disastrous loss of this
one crop. The way to do that is
to grow stock?especially cattle,
hogs and sheep, in the order enumerated.
The world must eat;
stock and intensive farming must :
and should be the watchword.

Columbia, August 30.?The
official returns came iu slow.
There is uo appreciable change
in the relative standing of the
candidates. The Gubernatorial
race still goes merrily along with
McSweeney having a lead of over
four thousand over Col. Hoyt.

the totals are : McSweeney, 38,

Total, 91,306.
State Treasurer: Timmorman,
43,943; Jennings, 45,184.
Darlington county is the only
county with incomplete returns,
but this can hardly change the
result, unless it be very one
sided, and the absence of the
returns from Darlington and
possible telegraphic errors may
change. Derham, 68,035 ; Brooker,
20,287. McMahau, 52,763; Gapers,
36,334.
In tho lieutenant governor's
race the contest narrowed down
to Winkler and Sloan for companions
to run with James H.
Tillman. The Darlington vote
may change tho resvlt.
The vote for lieutenant gov
ernor is incomplete as to Spartanburg
and Darliugton, and
these counties, * iiieh would not
send official votes as requested,
will decine as to whether Winkler
or Sloan run with Tillman. |
Winkler will most likely be put j

There is a difference ef about
2,000 votes in that reported for
governor and the other Statu
officers. This may be accounted i
for by the vote for governor
being much larger, or an error in
