ADVKRTISKK is not n disci |de of Mr Tillman; nt thc same time, wo soo no reason why he should he hin hoed for the disorder ly conduct of the citizens of Raro- j Well who preferred not to hear Sen- ; ator Y cum ins spea'c. A Joint discussion had hoon arranged. Till-! man und Youmans were the speak ers, and fair-play, to say nothing of! politeness and a sense of justice, should have restrained those who attended the mooting from Inter- i ti ring with the program. We are fold that when the mob hogan to tri ven a preference to the Edge field speaker, and to show a de cided desire to shut off the home raised orator, and to down him hy cries cf "Tillman." Mr Tillman arose and tried to quiet the distur bance. Ile did not succeed, but we see no reason why the Senator from Barnwell should become of-j fended because of his effort to put : down a demonstration which was j ?Uko an insult to Mr Youmans and tho committee who had arranged! the joint discussion. Senator Your- I mans should have held bis temper' ?Md he should have been allowed, to speak, if those present had a desire to show a preference for! Tillman, good and well, but they | had no right to deny to You man the right of free-speech. They could have quietly withdrawn, or shown hy other means, loyalty to their lender; but reformers should not beal down discussion by rowdy ism.! Wo give Mr Tillman credit for ?ill that he does, nod charge to bim nothing for which ho ls not re sponsible. Wo do not believe he desired to interfere with the joint discussion, but the Barnwell epi sode only shows the danger of such reckless talk. When a man comes forward as a reformer and uses such unguarded and flrey denunci ations against existing Institutions, and men in whom confidence ia re posed; whan a people are this ar roused, they are upi to become un managable and often run over their loader. What can those who throt tled Mr Youmans hope to gain? Po they for one moment imagine that in this free democratic coun try a citizen is not permitted to dis pute? Can it bo possible that this mighty reform must be accomplish by .silencing opposition hy brute force? Far from it. If the charges of extravagance and Incompetency in the administration of that gov ernment which rod-shirt democra cy of'7(1 organized-bo true, the followers of Mr Tillman had noth ing to fear from anything that Sen ator Youmans or anyone else might say. Convir.ee the people of South Carolina that they have mis placed canfidon 'e, and they are not slow to acknowledge and rectify the mistake. Convince them that those who were put In office In '70 and who have remained since, are either extravagant or in competent, and we believe that no solicitation or eloquence will prevent their overthrow. But we do not believe that the more conservativo fol lowes of Mr Tillman would sanc tion thc co ursa of those Barnwell people, Rven In Laurens County, where he has ns strong a following perhaps ns In any part of tho Stat*?, WO believe a decent hearing would ho given a man who differs from him. Secrets i y Fairchild has made an offer lo hunks by which much of the surplus can ba distributed where lt ia needed, liv this means the pooplo aro allowed to use free nf chirgn, the money taken n om thom hy tho high tariff. Upon deposit of honda, flo per cent of their value ls gi von to the hanks free of Inter est. This money tba hanks can use, while realising Interest on the lw>nds ffnvlr.ur the seeureties of govern ment which must eventorally ho paid. . \<> government ls of course safe, and as f ho surplus ls not needed, thia course ol t in Secretary la commendable and will hroik the present contraction of the money market. it la thought that the TT. fl. Supreme Court will decided in the prohibition eases of Town and Kanaaa, that the Sind? must comp?nsalo citizens for distilleries ?nd other property rendered ?vermies* by the new law. 7f this be true, prohibition '.viii anon become a Urn Issue in national politl?n, aa the girohlhlttonlata will look to a constitu tional amendment for roller.

Thc Model Man nf tho State ?r7ohon6i<l Unjittcr.] Si ute Treasurer Bamberg has In duced n prominent fanner of his county to attend the Old Farmer Settlers' Convention, which tokes pl.iee dui mg the coining Fair. Though it has been found Impossi ble to .secure the attendance of .Mr Davis nt our Fair, a perusal of the facts given below concerning this farmer delegate will convince nil Hint in this old-time farmer there will he present there a most re markable mun, whose record is difficult lt not impossible to equal anywhere, and to see whom ulone it la worth the trip thither. He is78 years of n^ro, and has ploughed every summer for sixty yen having made fifty-four crops on sumo plantation. 1 ie hus never made a failure in a C roo. Ile bus never bought a pound of bacon or lani for his own uso, but hus always made bacon and lard to sell. He always raised wool enough for his own clothing and to spare. He does not recollect ever hav ing sworn an oath. Ho has never refused a call of charity, ami lins always given lib erally for the support ol' the gospel ami charitable objects. He has been steward of a Metho dist church for fifty years, and has never missed but two steward's meeting in that period. He took bis last drink of whiskey in 1837, fifty years ngo, and thinks it was his first also ns bo does not remember ever having taken a drink before. He regrets nothing in lils pnst i life and has no fears for the future. I A model farmer, a model neigh bor, a model steward, a model Christian, none could be his aupe* rlor; where can bis equal bc found ? A TALKING MACHINE. Edison** Phonograph nt Lust Perfected. Mr T. A. Edison is quoted ns fid lows in regard to his phonograph: "After eight months nf steady work I have made a commercial inven tion, tr'y pbonocrnph I expect to see in every business office. The first five hundred will, I hope, bi ready for distribution about the end of January. Their operation ls simplicity itself mid it cannot full. Tho merchant or clerk who wishes to send a letter bas only to set the machine in motion und to tulk in bis natural voice and at the usual rate of speech into thu receiver. When be bas finished, the sheet or "phonogram," ns I call it, ready for putting into a little box made on purpo.-o for the niall. Wo are milk ing t ho sheets in th reo sixes, one for letters of from eight hundred to one thousand words, another size for twenty-five words and an other size for four hundred words. I expect Hint an arrangement can be made with the |mst office authorities, enabling the phono* gram cores tr? be sent at the some rate as a letter? The receiver of a phonogram will put it into bis ap paratus, und the message will be given out more clearly, moro dis? tinctty, than the best telephone message ever ?ont. Tho tones of the voice on the two phonographs which I have finished are so per fectly rendered that one can dis tinguish between twenty different persons, each ono of whom bas sold a few words. Ono tremen dous advantage ls that the letter may be repented II thousand times if necessary. Tho phonogram does not wear out by use. Moreover, it limy ht; filed away for a hundred years and lie ready the instnnt it la needed. If a man dictates bis will to the phonograph there will be no disputing the authenticity of tho document with those who knew the tones of bis voice in lifo. The cost of making the phonogram will lie scarcely more than the cost nf ordinary letter paper. Tho ma chine will read out tho letter or messngo at th? same speed with ahlch lt wns dictated. I have ex perimented willi a device for en nh? lng printers to set type directly 'rom the dictation of the phono graph, and think that lt will work 0 a charm. It ls so arranged that he printer, by touching a lever 1 Ith his foot, ni lows five or ten fords of the phonogram to be soun led. If he la not satisfied with the Irst hearing, beean make it repeat he same word's over and over gain." Ital* of South Carolina bA?RENH COUNTY, IN raovATtt Where?*, Mrs. ff j t?.
