Lake has resigned as railroad agent at this place. Mr. Lake has accepted a better ofler in Atlanta, Ga. Mr. Lake made the best agent that Prosperity ever had, and it is with regret that the people of our little towu give him up. We hope the change will prove to be of great advantage to him. Mr. D. M. Langford has been ap pointed agent to succeed Mr. Lake. SENATOR KE!Tr'S SPEEC[f. Senator Joseph L. Keitt made a speech in favor of the sub-treasury plan at Mr. S. H. Fellers' barbecue, on the 11th instant. The following is A synopsis of his speech: The capitalists have falsely educated the people to believe that silver and Cold are the only true monies. Such iQ not the case. Greenbacks is a better money than gold or silver. We need more greenbacks and we will become a prosperous people. When we had $5C per capita we realized 30 cents a pound for cott-n. Now we have only 05 pei capita and we get only six or seven cents a pound for cotton. Question-Mr. Keitt, don't supply and demand have something to do witb i t? Answer-Contraction of the curren cy has something to do with it. Question-Will you kindly explair why we realized thirty cents a pound for cotton when we had a four million bale crop, and seven cents when w( have an eight million bale crop? Answer-I will admit that supply and demand have something to dc with it, but you must remember that, as the currency contracted, cotton went down, and such has been the case fou the p)ast twenty-f-ive years. Suppose we raised 30,000 bales of cotton in Y ew berry County and we had $10,000 tc pay for the 30,000 bales with, you see we could get only 30 cents per bale. Surely any sensible man can un.der' stand that comparison. Scppose eight millon bales be raised, or suppose the demand be eight million and 10 cents the price of cotton. The factories bu3 enough cotton at 10 cents to run on un til January. Then the speculator stepi in. The banka at the North say to th( banks South, you must pay your note Banks South say to merchants, yot must pay your note. The merchanth say to the farmers bring in your cottor and pay up. Then the price of cottot is reduced to 8 cents a pound by the speculator. If we had warehouses fol the 'a:mers, and the farmers coukc make a loan from the government al t wo per cent. we could abolish the spec ulator and sell directly to the factorie: at ten cents a pound. THE NATIONAL BANKS. Senator Butler at Prosperity evade< the questions I asked him about tb< National Banks. He (Senator Butler did not like the word "lien," but pre ferrd the word "tax." I say the gov einent does loan the national bank money at one per cent., and the bank charge the people from 15 to 20 pe cent. for money. If the banks have a right to a circulk tion of money based on their bonds the farmers have a right to circulatio1 based on non-perishable products. .1 the merchants had been pat.riotic, the would have advocated the sub-treasur plan long ago aud would have take the farmer by the band and asked hi! to help them work out the plan. Bt the merchant is under the banker, an is afraid to do anything to displear him. Merchants, the time has con when you must decide where you wi stand! Will you go with the people< will you go with the moneyed powe and help to crush out the farmers? GOING FOR SENATOR U]UTLER. -Senator Butler was dealing unfair1 with the people of Prosperity when 1 discussed the dead bill presented t .Mr. Vance in Congress, and he kne -it. (Put it down. I want it to go 1 the papers.) Senator Butler is again us. He (Senator Butler) has fought tl - emands of the Alliance and is oppost - to the farmers borrowing money at tv - per cent. from the government. He - in favor of the National Banks. - DECLAE!S JIMSELF A TihilRD PAR'] SMAN. .Question-What about the Thi party? -Answer-As an Alliancenman? Question-No, as a citizen. -Answer-I anm a free man. I ha' Sthe right to do as I please, and as: - Allianeman I will stand by the d -mands of the Alliance. If the D)en cratic party will not concede the demands, 1 will go where we can t - them satisfied. [A pplause.] The only applause Senator Keitt eived was when he declared his inte 0tion to leave the Democratic party Cthe dlefmands of the Alliance were tr conceded to within the party. - One of his hearers remarked to yo Scorre.ondent, "We have triedt d Demo~eratic party for a long time, a1i d we are willing to take a little oft 3-third now.'' n The "L XW.

On Vednesday, the 12.h, the con tract was bid oft by Mr. Geo. T. Reid, who represents himself and eleven other enterprising cit;zens of Chappells.

Teachers' Institute. IThe Counly Board of Examiners are .making arrangements for holding a e Teachers' Institute at Newberry fram 7 August 31st to September 5th. .The Board is anxious to make the .Institute a success and therefore ear nestly request that all teachers in the County, and others interested in the common schools, he p,reseot. - We have hp.d an Institute each year e during the past two years, and believe that some good has been done, that some teachers, at least, are better pre pared for their work than before. But we vant all to make progress we want e better methods and better training in all of our se! ools. One of the best means to accomplish this is the County Institute. All teachers can attend it. ~They cannot afford to lose the oppor ttunity to learn soinething which makes them better fitted for their work. The Institute will be in session five days. The grade of the teacher's certificate t- hereafter will depend to some extent upon the number of Institutes he has eattended. ARTHUR KIBLER, School Commissioner. DEATHs. Mr. Win. H.

Has it ever occurred to you that, in slecting a complany iu which to assure your life, there are three points which, ifcorrectly ascertained, will determine beyond all question the best company r *ou to choose ? Here they are: FIRST-SAFETY. SECOND-CONTRACT. THIRD-RESULTS. I. SAFETY (or Strength) is all impor tant: for an insurance contract IS either en tered into for a long period of years Or for life In the case of ant insuranace ompatny (as with an individual or with any other business organization), strength is determined.by the amount of assets OVER AND -'.BOVE ALL LIA LIEs; or, In other words, by the Surplus. As the surpius2 of the Equitable Life Assur ance Society of the United States on Dec. 3st, 15, amounted to Twenty-three and Three Quarte Millions (a sum many millions in ees the surplus held by any other life company in the world), and as the Equitable's ratio of assets to liabilities is 125 per cent., ie., $125 to meet each $100 of indebtedness (a percentage greatly in excess of that of atny other leading company), the question ol greatest safety munst be decided in favor 01 the Equitable.
