Ii AUREN 8, 8. O. Oot. 17, 1898. Oov. Tillman's "great speech" at the Louisville convention was we havo no doubt very interesting to listen to as It Is to read, but he neg lected to explain how freo silver can help the f irmer*. He offered nothing in evidence to show that free coinage would swoll the vol ume of the currency or that a gold standard would decrease it. There is not one word in his speech to convince a reasoning m in that the cry for free sliver has a basis in common sense. It Is easy to say that mono-tnetnltom would oppress the debtor class and contract tho currency but the O >vornor does not toll how or why. Nor cm he. Govoruor Tiltman deserves very high praise, howover, for the forci ble presentation which ho mado to the Westerners of the Southern side of tho negro question so far as it relates to politics. In that por tion of his address he spoke with the undaunted candor of a man and did his state credit. And grant that it does come to a party struggle between a single gold standard and bimetallism,? unless tho parity of sil vor and gold can bo guaranteed by international agreement aud a means bo pro vidod to protect the cheaper coin from possible depreciation, the Ad vertiser is for gold. We doubt the possible existenco of anything othor than gold that will ever again pass ns money between nations and a metallic dollar that will buy less than a hundred cents anywhere on the globe is worse than no dollar at all. This paper believes in a strict construction of the federal consti tution, a low tariff, white suprem acy and honest money. If any body would like to call ".at anar chy we havo not Lhe slightest ob .'ectica. if othor people prefer to call their belief in paternalism, sub-treasury schemes, governmen tal ownership of railroads and an inflated currency by such names ns^Jeffersonlun" and"Jack sonian Democracy" we do not care how much of that sort of cheap fun thoy have. A Kentuckian on being informed that the price of whiskey had gone up observed that he had one con solation; it could not go higher than it was worth. If the people wanted silver as much as they do whiskey the government might expect to establish a dispensary and succeed in disposing of some sixty or sevouty cents worth for a dollar. Tho Governor >?poko of himself in his St. Louis speech as a ''plain biuut man." The expression orig inated in tile most brilliant and demlgogic oration ever penned. To say tho least, our Governor in apt when be sets up Mark Antony as his model. In Georgia the parson is still in politics and it begins to look as if the Rev. Mr. Evans would be the next Governor. The frequent oc currence of tho preacher In Geor gia's political firmament leads to tho suspicion that tho average Georgia layman is too wicked t be trusted with the authority ot coroner. Editor Petty is being pressed for the Colhctorshlp. Tho Ad vertiser prefers General Bratton to anybody else because Genera) Bratton deserves the place but tho appointment of Mr. Petty would give entire satisfaction, It is becoming evident that Sen ator lrby's affection for the Presi dent which first manifested Itself last winter was not deep seated or else the course of Ids true love d not run smooth. It could not bear tho appolntmontof Harris of Union. Possibly when Solomon re marked that "of making books there is no end" he had in mind tho issues of tho Congressional Record. Wo should bo pleased to see tho John Gary Evans boomlet arise and smile and assure us that it is not as dead as it seems. Men nnd brethren, how has the cause of tomperance been ad vanced since a dispensary was es tablished in this town? The Sonate of the United States is probably the only paralytic ever known among parliamentary bodies. Suppose tho Senate in its help lessness should lose the power to adjourn ? Was th? word "riot" derived from tho name of the Bra/.llllnn oapital? Allen of Nebraska spoke fifteen hour*. Suppose he had boen a a proacher? Where is the Ocala platform and the sub-treasury scheme? A hundred dollars will pay for a share in the cotton mill. -1 Hat Hut! Malt! Ii Is the feto of Antl'Tillmanites to suffer continuous, annoying and excruciating defeat but once In a while they cross their legs and look on the situation with genuine heartfelt pleasure. Just now those of them who sometimes take a sip aro Importing a good article from Augusta which they purchase at a fair price while the loyal Refawm er Insists upon the puro stuft sold .by tho Dispensary although it costs a lovely little sum extra, which goes Into tho State's till. The Cheraw Reporter says that tho Columbia Register "Interests the Antis because they always want to know what tho Devil is doing and saying for himself." We do not consider the Register a little bit devilish. Does the Roporter be lieve that a veritably stupid news paper eon Id maintain a paid up circulation In the nether regions? Wo should think that to pay down below a paper should have snap and sparkle. It Judgo Hudson Is punished for his honesty ho has tho satisfaction of knowing that thoro is a place reserved for him In tho respect of Democrats by the side of Wade Hampton. With Hudson's and Gary's de cisions and a pitiful lack of profits the Dispensary law totters an though it had imbibed itself. Tho Dispensary has seen Its beat days, all of which were a disgrace to the Stute. State banks of Issue with care ful and stringent legislative safe guards to protect their currency would at least give contentment to the people and would probably prove a stimulant to business. At last accounts that foil de stroyer, T. Larry Gantt, had not extirpated Ool. Dillard. It will be a great wrong to copy right tho palmetto for whiskey flasks. Shall the money of the country be undermined and exploded by the Pops? The United States Senate like, tho giraffe cannot get vo eas iness. ... Tho Advertiser fears that it is just such a heretic as the Spar tanburg Herald calls a goldbug. Judgo Gary, you are something of a Daniel after all. When tho hair begins to come out in combing, it shows a weak ness of tho scalp that calls for im mediate attention. The best prep aration to arrest further loss of hair and restore the scalp to a healthy condition is Aycr's Hair Vigor. Union Meeting. The Union Meeting of the Fifth Section will meet with Huricane Church Saturday bofore tho 6th Sunday in October. 11 A. M.: Introductory Sermon by RffV.T. A Campbell. 11.30 A. M.

This question is often heard and nearly as often unanswered. It is not always remembered, as it should bo, that the occasion of ill temper and irritability is often to bo found in the physclal condi tion of the persons affected. What Is the use of trying to "harmonize" a man whose liver has gone back on him? If a man is tortured with rheumatism, how can ho bo ex pected to ho affable and agreeable? Can a confirmed dyspeptic be ex pected to bo cheerful and always ready to tell a funny story ? Tho only way to remove tho difficulty 13 to get at the cause. Dyspepsia, rheumatism, impure blood and liver troubles yield to Hood's Sar saparillu; this is why it is an effec tive tranquillKor, a peaceful mes senger, and a preventive of domes tic quarrels.
