Hut the oilier jiajier says: "Tho
question of local legislation does
not avail." On this point we also
differ from our contemporary. The
General Assembly of South Caro
lina have, during tho present ses
sion, had a bill of a general nature
before them to abolish tito nineo of
Master for thc State. After due
consideration they rejected the bill,
and thus declare thal lin; Muster'*
Office isgood for tho State. Now,
this General Assembly is asked io
say that tito Master's O ill CO is not
good for Laurens County. Is that
not local legislation ia its most oh-1
joel tenable form ? < )n this question
we understand tho Laurens delega
tion are equally divided, so that ?Ul
alleen t is made to fore.1 the will of
two members against tho will of
two other members from Laurens,
and also Hie Legislature ns H v ludo.
South Carolina can neve; prosper*)
SO long as laws are made for i he
counties instead of thc Stale.
THE LINE IS OLfiAWN.
Republican politicians pretend
to lu; greatly encouraged, because
of the fact that tho message of Pre. -
?dent Cleveland is i\ tariff rob rei
document, l here can ho no doubt
bul that tho next campaign will bo
squarely on the 14? rt if issue, but,
however much pretended hilarity
now exists in republican head-quar
ters, before tho campaign closes the
great muss of American voters
will bo too well posted on this issuo
to lisien to thu threats of "pauper
labor." The message <>f (ho Presi
dent is only the ex tires-ion in no
uncertain term?, of the doctrine of
tho democratic parly, since ilu for
mation. This sentence embodies
the gist of tho whole matter.
.'The necessaries of lifo used and
consumed by all tho pi oj le, ( he duly

Can tho corroo I ne-s of such a po- ?

A II i anco.
In a letter to tho Charlotte, CN.
C.) Democrat, S. It. Alexander,
president of tho North Carolina
Fur tn era* Alliance and Co-opera
tive Union, gives the following as
the purposes of that organization,
which H said to be gaining ground
in this Stat?- :
To encourage el.nation among
the agricultural and laboring clas
ses and elevate to highor manhood
and womanhood Hmso who bear
the burdens *>f productive industry.
To break up, by frequent mee
tings, thu isolated habits, of farm
ers, improve their social condition,
increase their pleasure and
strengthen the!? confidence in and
friendship for each other.
To make the study and improve
ment of ?tract?cal agriculture in all
its branches ?i par! of the alliance
mission, that Its standard may be
raised, its p roil ts Increased and its
followers made moto prosperous
an?] contented.
To encourage tho study of the
laws of business and trad", tho best
methods of buying and selling, and
tho transaction of all kinds of bus
iness it mivv bc found desirable for
farmers and laborers to engage in,
and under all circumstances shall
discourage the credit system.
To attend io Its o wn business af
fairs in its own way, and make no
tight against any legitimate busi
ness, but shill oppose methods
found to he contrary lo justice and
equity.
To encourage t ho selfing ofall
disputes among neighbors by arbit
ration.
To encourage farmers to put their
saving'- in mn n abed u res--not on ly
for a profit, but tn create a home
market for farm products.
The above is tho ground work
noon which the viii mee rests, it
desires only good mon rather than

Whorl fl' Scarborough, of Madison

ped by o determined woman, who
ropttlsed him nnd a deputy when
they attempted to 'uko her into
custody. At I he term of t he supe
rior court a judgment was obtained
against the woman's husband, John
Moore, for attorney's fees. Mrs.
Moore promised to meet tho obli
gation to-day.
Accordingly she met tho officer
and requested thal the plaintiff
write a receipt in full, which wns
floue. Mrs. Moore asked to sec the
receipt herself. Sho was also per
mitted to examine the papers III
the case. After scrutinizing them
for some time sho locked at the
men for a moment, and with tho
utmost sang froid stuffed the papers
into her pocket and drove off. The
sherill' swore out a warrant against
lier.
Accompanied by a deputy he
procei ?Jed to Moore's house to er
red tho ilaring woman. .Shy wel

SOME STRANGE CONFES
SIONS.
The Rochester (N. Y.) Union te
ports having this dialogue v.ith an
eminent physician :
"Caa you cure a cold for HIC."
"I dare say; where is it Y '
"Doyen treat yourself for colds ?"
"That depends on how bud they
are. I had one Inst week und fix
ed myself up adose, but I didn't
dare take it. I kept lt over night
and gave it to a dead head patient
the next day! .
. Then yon don't dare' take your
own medicine ?"
"No! I don't dare, and I have no
family physicien."
A gentleman a short time ago, %
consulted his physician about a se
vere rheumatic attack. As he was
leaving, the doctor said:
"Should my prescription afford
any relief, U t me know lt, as I am
suffering from un affection similar
to your.;, and for tho lust twenty
years have tried in vain to cure lt."
Thc bes! of physicians now have
tho frankness to admit that the
schools have not yet mastered all
