LAURENS.S. C, April 30. 1805. Nervous People* We have observed among our oxr changes ? criticisms upon Judge Golf who has^^DatfOntly signed' several In Tdn orders, and also certain Attor neys at law who wont bofore tbo Judgo upon eertaln showings and asked rellof for their clients. Certain editors and others set up a howl at tho Institution of those proceedings; thoy are adverse to all action or proceeding and are en amoured of tho status quo in all olvil und political affairs. Complaints are J| .made against Messrs. Pope and Cald well and Douglas ?fc Obcar, that thoy have rushed into tho courts and dis turbed the stagnant political waters In South Carolina. Thoso nervous peoplo are greatly to bo pitied; in some cases the condition results from the natural organization; In others It is the rosult of some abnormal complaint that has become chronic for want of prompt ' treatment; In others it prococds from an exagerated egotism that would dony to others the liberty of action, politi cal or otherwiso, that they assumo thoy . ntonoshpuld be. endowned with. Just so. Charles the Second was content with the status and Cromwoll and his Ironsides stalwarts kept things stir ring and tho good ordor was broken; biter .Tohnlo Wllkos made a to-do and kept lip a monstrous disturbance; tho American revolutionists had an Inning, and George 3d had his siestas brokon upon by disturbing accounts from tho in his colonies, and lator tho ioh revolutionists wont With all tho item world Into hysterics ovor tho ling of a King, and some throe mil ions women and mon. All this rost |nes8, and as you may suggest, outru iaoh of proprloty culminated in giving to tlvLs_genor^Jyj^j|}oiwiinlJ women tho HttloliTjor'fy^ncy on joy.-^i The world will not stand still. Tho status quo was a good thing for Charles 2d and Louis XVI. But in this ago of schools and colleges and philosophy, why should there bo such a furor ovor tho doings of a fow lawyers and a doz en or so judges. Thoro should bo some manhood, somo show of oquablo de meanor, somo grit to endure and keop cool, when only a tomtit Is struck by lightning. Tho readers of tho Adver tiser will not go Into fits at high jinks by Tillman, Evans, Irby, Samps Popo, Goff, "Tray, Blanch, or Sweetheart," big dogs or little dogs. Calmly, coolly and? straight-forward, tho world moves, and men who are men will not, consider or regard your passions or your proju dloos or your Interests. Ono other point, it may bo woll to note right here: this is a thinking ago; It Is ontor prlslng,courage has not fullod mon nor wbmen and all around us stand horoos and heronlos who will not yield ono *\_inoh of honest consclonco in tho fane of millions In opposition. In tho mean while if Goff'8 injunctions hold, lot them hold; if your judges are dishon est remove them; if your course is right and tyranny oppresses it, light it out. As you travel through this life you will oncountor much Ii 1th nnd ras cality; much cleanness, noblo virtue and generosity. Complaining and howling will do no good; boar tho ills or remove thom. Stand for tho right nnd the fight Is finished. White Supremacy. Ex-Governor Northorn, a farmer, is bringing ten thousand white farmers to Georgia, as pormanont settlors from the north-west. Thoy will bring down fifty thousand moro. Tho fow of us in this State must bo pitch-forking onch jftfcor, and how can wo bopo to havo Hiers join in tho cat fight. Pcaco Hu reignod in Georgia when Tom t^kon' gooso was cooked^ every republican In these Statos is really a rascal, wo must havo a stumpy road to travel, indeed, as our junior Senator, would remark. Cleveland is tho only man in thirty 11 vo years who haa managed to ride It rough shod without stumbling or halt. What ro llet huvu Tom Watson and Tillmah brought to their confiding following? Whero are wo at anyway? * * A lawyer Governor, n lawyor supor intendant of education, a lawyor At torney General, a lawyor at tho head of the rum bureau, no wondor at tho rum timo wo aro having with tho Courts. Vory fow can divlno how all thoso law-suits como upon tho state and on tall upon hor so 'many assistant coun sol (Charleston kldglovo lawyers) at beautiful figures. He has boon in tho ring and knows all about it. Samps Pope's four years training with T?lman makes him an ugly cus tomer to doal with. It Is not tho first e of the pupil gcMing tho whip and of tho mastor. ftCa;; Tho white motal soems to gain strength In tho north-wost. This may be a sheen tho light of which Senator Tillman has been anxious about. ?*? The identity of tho "orlglnall" Doll Boyd is still a puzzling point. Now isn't it about the same thing if sho Is or if she isn't. * ? * They talk of honest olectlon laws. Of what avail without honest officials to enforce thom? * ? ? Gov. Evans was tho archlteot of tho Dispensary law, though not tKo author, Why should ho not be the finisher? * ? * Gov. Evans has appointed ton addi tional constables to stand off Goff. * * ? There is nothing liko whistling to keep the courage up, except tall talk. Ever since Tillman came, ti.o poor old State has got Into so much law i ng and trouble that sho has had to employ lawyers from Newborry,- Barnwoll, York, Charleston, Klchland and old Virginia to support the knees of her many Attorney Genorals. And still thoy have no mercy. "Lay on Mo Duff" Is the motto of the cruel minori ty* And the poor old State that in the good old days was won't to defy a Jack son erl?s in her agony: "And when I stoop to beg for mercy, I meet with none, but wfee versa To the Memory of My Dear Father, Hubert Franks. Our dear departed on the morn ing of the 20th of December, 1894. | How hard it is, dear father, to say thou art gone?yes forever gone from earth. His death was caused by an injury received live days pre vious to his death. He bore his suffering with the resignation and fortitude of a true Christian. We ministered to his every want, but all that kind and loving friends could do was in vain. He was so weak toward the last he could not speak to us, but he replaced every tender caie with a glance of unut terable gratitude. He was a kind and loving father, and the void made in our household can never be filled. In vain do wc listen for his footsteps, but it is for ever hushed. Farewell, dear father, wc know thou art gone from us never to return, but thank God wc can go to you where there will be no more parting, no more tears. May we all bo able to say, 4'Thy will oh Lord be done," and think that death did not come too soon to one so kind and gentle. His attending physician was with him when his spirit took its flight. Wc arc all immersed in sorrow at his departure. No more will wc sec his dear face, or hear his loving voice. I will miss you, dear father, but I will endure the separation, knowing that God docs all things well. A light from our household is gone, A voice we loved is stilled; A place is vncant in our home Which never can be rilled. Wc miss thee from our home, dear pa, Wc miss thee from thy place ; Oh life is""ttrenry without f The sunshine of *thy face. We wait for thee at eve's sweet hour, When stars begin to burn ; Wc linger 'round this lonely place And look for thy return. But all in vain thy coming step, We list through all the hours ; Wc only hear the wind's low voice, That whispers through the flowers. We do not sec thee now, dear pa, We do not feel thy love; But on our wounded spirit falls A blessing from above. To luce, oh ! it will be so sweet, With all our sins forgiven, To mingle with our loved and lost, In our sweet home in heaven. Sue.

Read what a prominent merchant of Columbia, S. C, has to say for Harris Lithia Water. "I had long been affected with kidney troubles. I had tried all the mineral waters from Saratoga to Porter Springs. I had tried the Western waters and all others that I could hear of, and I have no hesi tancy in saying that none have benefited me even approximately as much as the Harris Lithia Water. I was using the Buffalo Lithia Water when I heard of this. I do not expect to use the Buffalo Water again. "When J went to Harris Lithia Springs, I had to be assisted out of my chair. After remaining two weeks I could get about as^good as anybody. It acted on me like a charm?quickly and effectively. This water is now being largely sold in Columbia, and I think every person who has tried it will agree with mc in the belief that it is the most re markable water in the country. From a simple interest in suffering hu manity. I would like very much to see it given a trial. 0. A. BALDWIN, Columbia, S. C. Harris Lithia Water Co., Harris Springs, S. C. A&hevills, N. C, September, 9, 1893. Mr. J. T. Harris: We have, been selling the Harris Lithia Water for some time, and find it a ready seller; those who have tried it arc loud in its praise. The doctors here regard it superior to cither the Buffalo or Londonderry Waters. Wc predict for it a wonderful sale when the merits become more generally known. Yours very truly, RAVSOR & SMITH, Prescription Druggist. Prosperity, S. C. Feb. 28, 189.1. Mr. J. T. Harris: I have been under the treatment of several physicians, and been to different watering places during the last ten years for kidney disease. It affords me pleasure to say that I have received more benefit from the use of Hanis Lithia Water than all remedies combined. Respectfully, G. D.
