The Old, Old Story.
The two days ohatauqua, political
pow-wow, at Union lias come and gone.
It was not largely attractive, tho at
tendance reported at .">()(), showing that
the sovereign voters of Union were not
so anxious for light after all. The
speeches were from beginning of
Genesis to Uovelatlons a rehash of the
old Story, the argument for and against
expansion, subsidy and taritv revision,
that has tilled the mouth of the States
man for the last two years. Sumc of
the speeches were stronger than others,
Home more ornately set in jems and
flowers and BUgared over und made
more palatable
Congressman Latiraer was a little
"handy" with a pitchfork, after tho
manner of his great captain and ac
cording to report his speech was ener
getically cheered. The following held
down tiie platform on Thursday, the
lirst day of the orating: State Senator
Henderson, of Aiken, candidate for
United State Senate: lion. .1. J. Ilemp
hill, of Chester, a former Congressman,
candidate for United states Senate;
Congressman Asborry C Latimer, of
Anderson, candidate for United Slates
Senate: Congressman Jos. T. Johnson,
of Sparianhu g, Hon. .lohn H.Cleve
land, of Spartan burg, (Capitalist, and
not a candidate), and Hon. Kobcrt Al
drlob, state Setaator of Barnwell coun
ty. Of these Mr. Cleveland alone sup
ported tho MoLaurln Commercial De
mocratic idea.
On Friday, the second day of the In
stitute, the audience was double. This
is an Indication that the men and vo
ters of Santuck and Goshen Hill, or the
laud of Goshen, at beert were modest
and thought that they needed more
light on great political problems of
the day, assuming that such arc pend
ing. Col. W, .1. Talbert. member of
Congress, of old Kdgetiold, candidate
for Governor, bad the lirst say and
spoke right on. Walt Whitman was
on hand and made a point, but Col.
Talbert was not to be diverted. Tal
bert ha.- chosen well?to close his po
litical career as Governor of the State.
He will be hard to head olT. John
Gary Evans, ex-Governor, spoke and
made a good talk, and is a candidate
for U.S. Senate. He wants to bury
MoLaurln and take his shoes. Col.
Oeorgo Johnstone, of Ncwdiorry, fol
lowed with a good speech, but did not
declare himself for anything, but is
probably feeling bis way gingerly, and
if tho way is open, will contest for the
U. S. Senate. He was followed by ex
Congressinan Stanyarne Wilson, who
is in the same category, but who al
ways talks well and is a strong man.
Benjamin ft. Tillman was saved for
the last, the ladies sitting out the long
ecrvice for the desert, tho pie, as it
were, the champagne, the nuts, the
grapes, the raisins, that is to say, tho
sweetmeats as well as the spices.
Tillman bad the usual stormy welcome
and parting.
The entire aggregation were against
the'Commercial Democracy' idea. And
bo tho evidence cumulates and swells
to support the -!l Tillman caddies, late
ly voting the resignation resolution in
Columbia. "Caddie," be it understood,
is tho lad who attends his master In
the fashionable game of golf, just now
finding its way into the unsophisti
cated South.
The aggregation of political teachers
enlightened the innocents of Chostor
on Saturday. Fotunatoly, in Laurens
we are up and on to the puzzling
problems.
* * I
McLaurln Thunders.
From the Olympian Hight? of l'aris
Mountain, a suburb of Greenville,
Senator Mcl.aurin thunders his answer
after the style of tho true Dhilippic, to
the State Executive Committee. They
by resolution had suggested that he
should resign his seat in the Senate,
in common decency, as a misrepresen
tativc of the democracy of the State.
Nobody expected that the Senator
would accept the suggestion and his
answer has been awaited with soino
anxiety. The marrow of the argument
to sustain his determination to "bold
fast" to that which he has and which
ho regards as "good"?is lirst the claim
that, the committee majority were
mere tools of Tillman, obedient to his
whip-lash. And second, a comparison
of McLaurin's record with that of Till
man, including a vicious assault upon
Tillman. But the bad logic lies iD the
patent fact that the conviction of Till
man does not acquit McLaunn. Paint
ing Tillman as black as Urebusdoes not
make MoLaurln white as snow. All
this is clear from a reading of the pa
per from Olympian bights. There is no
use to emphasize. MoLaurln, how
ever, makes one good point in his paper
and there is a smack of Democracy in
it: ''It seems to me the Democratic
massos of South Carolina are compe
tent to say at the polls whether or not
I have been a faithful Senator and a
consistent Democrat."
This is a sound proposition and
when the Senator meets them next
August at Phlllippl?be will lind tho
sands of the sea shore and the grass
blades of the Piedmont hills stalwart
democrats, with ballots reading: Anti
imperialism, anti-militarism, anti-tar
Iff,anti-ship-subsidy,anti-intimacy with
McKinley patronage and anti-every
suggestion of Republican taint, not a
soul will Inquire if Benjamins R. Till
man is clean or unclean, was true or
troachorous to those w ho took him on
their shoulders and hoisted him to
power and place.

Educational.
We print this week the letter of Mc
Laurin in lull, answering the Kxecu
Clltive Committee's call for his resigna
tion. It may prove educational. In
deed, there seems to be abroad in tho
land an idea that tin1 people need po
litical education. The protracted meet
ing?or political I nstitute?held at
Union last week, seeins to bo grounded
on that idea. It might be very well
for every community to get up a sort
of Ohatauqua and hold a summer en
campment that our good peoplo, may
Acquire a sort of primmer schooling in
democratic doctrines. Hear all sides,
is the idea. Hut, isn't it a little late in
the day for the sovereigns to be called
upon to learn the rudiments of their
father's politics. An old liner in this
county w ho didn't want to be bothered
with candidates usually jdedged him
self to the lirst comer and in that way
avoided trouble. One safe way is not
to take things too seriously unless you
have money at stake or hope for an
office.

The World's Greatest Fever Medleiiio.

thorough course of Johnson's Tonic
and drive out every traco of Malarial
poisoning. The wise insure their lives
and tho wiser Insure their health by
using Johnson's Chill and Fever Tonic.

How to ?et Fish.
Congressman Joseph T. Johnson,
who has been making arrangements
for supplying llsh to those who desire
them, is receiving numerous requests
for fish from persons in various parts
Of tho districts, and oven from some
outside the district. The names of
those who desire fish are sent to the
United States commissioner of fishe
ries, ami hlank applications are for
warded by this commission to the ap
plicants. These blanks are tilled out
and returned to the commission. The
llsh ears will come to this section in a
few months.
This should be a matter of great in

living on considerable streams.

Tuscan Proverbs.
We are indebted for tho following
collection of proverbs to a bright young
gentleman writing from Alma, in this
county. The short pithy proverbs of a
people are the vory essence of their
wisdom. Tho Tuscans were the very
earliest of ancient-Italians in civiliza
tion and to thorn may largely be at
tributed the predominance of the Ro
mans among the nations of the earth.
Oi"1 ionng correspondent states that
he makes this collection from thous
ands found In an article in The Eleotio
Magazine. They will bo read with in
terest:
Mouth shut, eyos open.
God helps merry follows.
Every liro-lly is not a tiro.
A long tongue, a short arm.
Talkers sow, the silont reap.
One devil ?Ines not make hell.
Silent tongue, speaking deeds.
Truth and oil come to the ton.
Words are female, deeds male.
A beard washed is half shaven.
A scalded dog dreads cold water.
The leafy vino yields few grapes.
Hope is the Viread of the unhappy.
Whoso milks over much draws blood.
Think much, speak little, write loss.
He that looks at every cloud never
makes a journey.
God is treasurer of tho charitable
man.
A good knight is novor at loss for a
lance.
The miser docs good only when ho
dies.
Ho who has love in his ho?M t has
spurs In his sides.
He who has met with snakes fears
lizards.
Wise on a sudden, fools on reflection
(woman.)
To a shattered ship every wind is
foul.
Hotter be a bird of tho wood than a
bird of the cage.
Who wears a good capo shall easily
scape.
He that hath a bead of wax should
not walk in the sun.
Courtiers are shod with water
melon rind.
Hotter an ass that carries you than a
h<*M*86 that throws you.
One thread ol kindness draws more
than one hundred oxen.
When scoundrels go in procession
the devil carries tho cross,
Speak to your friend as if he were
