ChalToe has within the last three weeks been appointed Post Mas ter for Aiken, about a two thousand dollar job?a plum not to he grinned at. Ohaffee was horn a Democrat and until recently lived u Democrat.Chalfee was of a well-known family. John Q. Capers prominently connoeted in this Stato was appointed as a Democrat to the Attorney General's Ofllco at Wash ington und when McKinley went in Capers did not go out. Last year he Campaigned for McKinley in West "ir triniu. Lust week he was appointed District Attorney for this State, a lit tle $1,1)00 plat e, lie goes in in July, Mc Kinley makingthoappointment before starting on his six weeks tour towards the setting sun region of ou? great and growing empire. These two appoint ments are credited to the Influence and Inspiration of Johny Mcl.aurin and is in line with the authenticated policy of McKinley to build up a Republican purty at the South out of tho EOOalled old time respectability. It is not sur prising that MoLaurln who hassup fiorted the McKinley policy should tack n this direction, 'tis future la 'hi* State lies in building up such a parti and it can.t be a-an Eng suuian wan's his gn g, half wal r and half strong stuff, or as he chosos to call it ?"jollj" arf and arf." McLnu in will find and all hi-* fo lowing that he must bo one or tho other Republican or Democrat. Ho has been located by shrewd ob servers all along, That he should se cure these fat places for young men of talent is not surprising. A well grown and fatted steer when Ills own pasture Is exhausted leans ag. hist the fence of neighboring Holds and nibbles at the tempting tufts within his reach. After a while the pressure forces the enclos ure and ho finds himself up to his girth in the green and juicy neighboring grounds. He la ovtr and like one of Esop's famed animals he presently sub mits to wear the collar and the yoke of tho master of that held lie calls to tho Innocent,supple yearlings to follow, but as a rule the hord are habituated to old domestic grounds and not in a hurrry to change their gra/.ing. This will be tho ease in South Carolina and we believe in the old Conservative South. A century has parsed sir.ee South Carolina voted the Republican or Federal ticket. If it be true, as it so appears, that MoLaurln is in sympa thy with President MoLaurln's South ern program, then he is full-feathered us a Republican and must take his stand under Hnuoa'd colors. Wo con fidently expect himself and the year lings to he lonesome for a long time. MeLaurin will tind himself tut anil frisky and his horns adorned with wreaths of roses, but for the butchers stall. If manufacturers and their de pendents are counted on, it must be set down that a half century must elapse before the South in any practical sense can reach Importance manufacturing. At the lapse of that period she may manufacture a decimal of the thousands of manufactured articles in uso in every household and businessin this country, P. S. Since writing the above Sena tor MoLaurln deli vend a speech at Charlotte before a commercial club of that little town. Wo have not space to review and dissect this official declara tion of his views upon national ques tions or opening speech in a campaign for re-election to the Senate. It is a pretty speech, and might suit a lioston ?1th of July occasion, and might well have been writt n at tho White House, and nodoubt was there read and ap proved. It is specious, deals in glitter ing generalities, descends to harmless sophistry, and will tool very few peo ple, lie applauds the Republican national program, everything re publican, condemns the recent course of the Democratic organi/.ut on, and proposes to die as a Democrat in pub lo or private lifo. It looks very like he is bent on IIguring prominently at a pol itical funeral. 1*. S. S. Senator MoLaurrin pro ceded to Charleston, where he could not resist the blandismcnts of a News and Courier Reporter. < >f Tillman's criticism among other sugar-coated tidbits, he s:iid: "It i* no now rolo for Senator Till' man. He began hh career by abusing and slandering belter men. I have naught but contempt for ;in Intel lectual bully and shameless nret no r masquerading as u ?tutesmun, :-. moral pigrnv posing as iIn champion ol hoc* esty." There is a venerable adage about, pot calling kettle black, but we would not hint an? thing of the kind, for they are our dlgnilled Senators, "'our most pot?nt, grave, and rnveivnd slgnlors, (our) very noble and approved gOOJ masters." Tilliunn on McLauriu. Senator Tillman was interviewed at his home, Trenton, on the matter of Senator MeLaurln's 8p?cch at Char lotto Ha was savage as. a meat axe, as usual. Instead of "carving him as a dish lit for the Gods, ho hews him as a oaroas lit for hounds." We try to bo charitable and full of the milk of hu man kindness and would have preferred that our Senior Senator lot tho people of tho Sta'o take care of the Junior Sonator. Besides, we had all gladly forgotten about the little incident of gobbling a great preacher's thanksgiv ing sermon into atpoooh in tho Sonate. Tho Yankees vote a high tariff and rely upon what they call a home mark et. That is, they force tho consumer here to uso their stutT, keeping out the foreign article. In the meanwhile, Ohio, Iowa, et a), other hoosiors to wMt have developed their corn yield to two billion bushels. The South is their main market. But this Is too limited a territory, and after a big effort they got a hundred millions into Europe last year, most part into France. But now the French, who want to protect thoir own wheat and barley, put n big tariff on the corn coining into their country. Fvory wind that blows, blows good to somebody. '1 hes'u Yankees are smart, but other psoplo aro learning. Ger? many repudidating Western bacon, England Western boef and Franco Western corn It Is but a short while and wo can keep our corn cribs and smoko houses r n the Other side tho Ohio on four cents cotton. Not to bo too sure, however, every farmer should plant corn for two pigs at least. He Kept his Leg. Twelve years ago .I. W. Sullivan, of Hartford Conn .scratched his leg with a rusty wire. Inflammation ami blood poisoning set in. For two years he Suffered intensely. Then the bent doc tors Urged amputation ."but,"ho writes, "J used one bottle of Elootrio Bitters and 1 1-2 boxes of Bucklen's Arnica Salvo and my leg was sound and well as ever."

Only 50 cents. / FJeven gentleinon of Groenvillo, manufacturers, merchants bunkers und preachera in that city invite Senator Mcbaurin to "addross" in that city "Iho public from my (bis) standpoint on certain national Issues now before the people." The Sonator answers that it gives him pleasure to comply with the rcquost and fixes May 22nd when ho will orate. Our readers will readily recognize the sweot kindness of tbo Senatorin consenting to oblige these innocent gontloroon, laboring under blind ignorance of the Senators views on "national Issues" and bis argu ments in support of them. Their in terest in the "public," too, is espec ially to be commended. These be the Requesters seeking light upon them selves and the aforesaid benighted "public": Jas. L Orr..I. II. Maxwell, M.

As regards tho Charleston exposition tho con gressman says that all efforts that were necessary weremado last fall When the bill was being formu lated. In view of (be fact that the appropriation was lost, Congrets man Lntimor wrotoalotfor to Bee rotary .lames Wilson asking him could he not secure tho exhibit, ttio same that ho had promised him (Latimer) la^t fall. Secretary Wilson a fow days ago answered this letter, and it contains good news for Charleston and those who wish to see I he Exposition made a success. Secretary Wilson says that if the Exposition company constructs a building and pays freight charges the ontiro exhibit which was at tho Paris fair and which will be at the Buffalo exposi tion will be sent to the Charleston exposition. This means that Char leston will got tho "next best" to having an Appropriation, it being of course presumed that tho busi ness managers of the exposition will guaranteo tho construction of tho buildings as well as tho pro lection of tho exhibit. Theso ex hibits do not includo any other than the agricultural. Tho agri cultural exhibit llOWOVOr, is the largest nnd most entertaining of all tho different departments of tbo government.

Dalrymple died suddenly at Iiis adopted homo near TownviUe,Anderson county, on the 10th inst. Wo can add nothing of eulogy to tho following no ble tribute of the Anderson Intelligen cer, a representative paper of his adopted county : Mr. Dalrymple was born In the Hope well neighlnirhood, some three miles from Martin's Depot (now Goldvllle) in Daurens County, September 1*12. When the South called her sons to arms in defenoo of her right--, he was among the very first to respond On April 14, 1801, he rendezvoused with his Com pany, commanded by ('apt. Tandy Walker, of the Cross' Hill section, at l.ightwood Knot Springs, near Colum bia, and was mustered into service as a member Of Company F, Third South Carolina Volunteers, and was in con tinuous service, till the close of the war,lacking but live days of four years, a record to which his family and de scendants may point with becoming pride. Ho was thrice wounded; first at the battle of Frederlcksburg, De cember 13, 1002, desperately, when his life was despaired of by the su'gcons, aid twice Bubsequoutly. 'I here was a remarkable coinoidenco of dates in his life. Ho was with lee at Appomattox. April!?, 1805, he united with the Methodist Episcopal I horch, South, April 0, 1800, and April '.?. 1001, termlnvted his earthly earoor. In August, 1807, ho married Miss Alberta Smith, of I.aureus, who by the beauty and purity of her life, is an Ornament to womanhood, and who with six children?ono son and live daugh ters survive him. In 1ST 1 Mr. Dalrymple removed from Laurens to Anderson county, where he settled permanently mar Towiivlllo, pursuing with marked success the busi ness of fanning. His death leave-: but. ono mombcr o Iiis father's family, Mr. Dorsey E. Darlyple, an estimable citizen living at TownviUe.

Dull')'mp'o lost an arm under Luig :-treet in the East Tennessee campaign. The. character of Thomas Jones Dal rymple, well rounded as it was, may be stated in low words. He was an ideal husband and father: ho was a good neighbor and steadfast friend; he was a good citizen in all that the term com prehends; without cant or bigotry he was an earnest Christian, loyal to his church always and in all things. Only a few hours before his departure he spoke calmly and confidently of his readiness for the exchange o( worlds, as if conscious that the transaction must come quickly and suddenly. $10?
