LAUKENS. 8. C, July ?1, 1001. 'Die Testimony AH In. Tbc State lOxeoutlvo Committee met in Columbia on Thursday night, nom inally to arrange u primary for the elec tion of a Congressman of the 7th Dis trict in the place of the late Congress man Stgkcs. This was done and the Primary occurs about Kept. i0tb. The committee consists of forty members, one of each county, and Senator Till man ex-olllcio, he being the state's representative Oil the National commit tee, and of the committee he may be dlsoriued as Magna pars fuit? trans lated, he being the greater part of it. Two sets of resolution.- were intro duced, Olio to require a Congressman to stand by the National Democratic platform of WOO, the canons, and a sub stitute, demanding the resignation forthwith of Senator MeLaurin. This passed overwhelmingly, 21 to ft, only tili counties being represented. There was much debate, somewhat crude In tone, the body no. likely to take rank with the seven wise men of Groece or their accomplishments to take rank with the seven wonders of the world. The minority were of opinion that the Committee had no right to pass tho resolution. But why not'.-' It is only lifter all an expression of opinion and goes far to establish the patent fact that MeLaurin is misrepresenting those ?who sent him to the Senate. The com mittee acted wisely, if there was some loose talk. Senator Tlllman was a llt tle bit savage on MeLaurin, perhaps too much so to do good for the cause he espouses. The Senator is older now and has been around and about and Should bo more prudent. 'The differ t'uee between men lies in whether one controls his passions or his passions him. lint the committee did not blun der. With the evidence of dissatisfac tion now pervading the Democratic ranks In this State as to McLauriu's course, if MoDufile, Hay no or Lowndcs, Htood in his shoes the Governor would have his resignation by wire in an hour. *** Mr. Dial Interviewed. On the morning alter .be meeting of the Democratic Executive Committee at Columbia, Mr, N. B. Dial, Lau rens nienber, who voted with the mi nority, expressed himself to a Char leston Post representative Wo rogret wo have not space to give all he is re ported to have -aid. Among ot her th Inga ".Senator Mcl.au rin, Mr. Dial said, was elected by the people, and he did not believe that the State Democratic lOxecutive Committee had the right to ask for his resigna tion." But Mr. Dial is mistaken, as to fact, he was elected by a party, and the trouble is, he has turned his hand and his small artillery against that party. Again: "Speaking of McLuurin's strength in the up-country. Mr. Dial said that he had seen a number of in telligent men, business men and far mers, who were very pronounced in fa vor of MeLaurin, and there were a great many who have not expressed themselves either one way or the other, but who will vote for MeLaurin when the time comes.*' We don't know about some ? business men,'' but business men generally and "farmers" 1)9 of u inn will vote square ly and tooth and nail against MeLaurin, and his high tarill and republican po'. icics. The Democratic, party will not tolerate a representative who coquettes and ploys "goo goo-eyes" (whatever that is) with the Republican hussy. MeLaurin will spend the Summer on Parrie Mountain. This is a line strat egic position, as from it the whole sit uation can he overlooked. Head quar ter's can bo seen from the great extent of low-lying lauds, easy access can be had, and besides, Iiis Lieutenants are all around him, and a council of war can be had without much ado. It Is excellent strategy. Il all hi? positions had been taken with equal ski 1, he could adopt a Spartan policy, erect no walls around his political fortress, trusting in the heails of his people. * * * Vorkvllle, s. C, has an ordinance making it a misdemeanor to "stagger" on the streets. Law Notes remarks: "If legislation of this character becomes generally popular in South Carolina the govcrner of that State will have to hold his little meeting with the gover nor of North Carolina in the hitters' territory."?Richmond Times. There is little danger of this legisla tion extending this way. Our able council would "slugger" at the sug gestion. *** One Maclay has published a history of the Baited States Navy and In a late volume charges Sehley with cowardice at Santiago,whereupon Sehley demands a court of inquiry which is ordered. Sehley was the senior officer present in the light and the Spanish lleet was ut terly destroyed. Should the court find that Sehley was timid, it will verify now dangerous a cur will prove when cornered. * * * Gov.

This paper has managed for several years to tackle the Spanish and Fili pino wars, the Chinese troubles, the scarcity of corn and hay this Spring, and is weathering along with the heat ed term as best it may. When it conies to tackling the strike situation and the steel trust business it strikes it's colors incontinently, and retreats to Its cor ner. Since our last issue the Constabulary raided Chic30, the Prince of Blind Tigers in Charleston and got a glorious haul. Tho llavor of Tillman's recent handshake could not save his premises from irreverent invasion. A paragraph is going the rounds of tho press thai Senator Tillman is a Director in a great Million Corporation concern. If this should turn out true, then he will be a bold man, who will challenge any of tho fish stories that may circulate during the heated term. *? * * A recent donation by a Hosten lady, Mrs. Carroll, gives to the University of Virginia, an Income tf $10,000, White Man Turned Yellow. i'reat consternation was felt by the friends of M. a.

Grler and family Icuvo to-morrow, Thursday, for their new homo in Ura, in Laurone county, whore Mr. Grler assumes tbo pastorate of the Assooluto Reformed ohurch. Mr. drier has beoil living in Yorkvillc sine?' 1804, having preached bis first Sermon on the lirst Sunday of that year, and has since had charge of the A. K. P. churches at Yorkvllle uud Tir/ah. When he came to Yorkvillc, the church had 00 members, and the number has since grown to xo Til /ah, which then had "1 members now lias 70, after having given oll quite n num ber to Rook Hill, Yorkvllle and other places. The Sunday Schools at both Yorkvillc and Tir/ah have grown very considerably. During Mr. drier's pas torate both churches have largely in creased their contributions to mission ary enterprises: but have made no ap preciable increase in the salary allowed to pastor. The church at Ora has about i*U members and will take u'l of Mr. drier's time. During his stay in Yorkvllle, Mr. drier has won Ehe high est respect and esteem of all the peo ple with whom lie has come in contact. It is generally conceded that he has discharged his duty regardless of i" r Eonal consequences, and the ontlrocom munity feels that his life has been a faithful exponent of the religion which he professes. He has been a strong foe to intemperance of every kind especially to the intemperance grow ing out of the abuse of intoxicating liquors, and although it cannot fairly be said that he has ever been extreme or fanatical, he has pursued his light steadily, consistently ami without com promise. The only dis> uisary that has ever been located in t 'ie county as now constltub ? was that at Tir/ah, in the midst Of one of Mr. drier's congre gations. Observing the pernicious ef fects upon the community, Mr. drier made it his especial business to mar shal all possible inllllollCOS to rid the neighborhood of the evil, ami to him more than to any other one individual belongs the credit for the removal of the Tlrzah dispensary. The results that followed fully proven the wisdom of his efforts, and he has since had much cause to congratulate himself on the work performed. Mr. drier and family will hi1 accompanied to their new home by tho best wishes of many people in this oommuuty, and the mem bers of the Yorkvillc and Tiiv.ah con gregations will, for a long time, feel that in the removal of himself anil his most oxcolloilt wife, a severe loss has been sustained.
