Harmon. Mr. Car penter's nanagenteit of the affairs of the company was not satisfactory, and I the directors of tihe company petitioned the Legislature at the session of IS93 I to grant theii charter privileges to op erate without a general agent. This charter was granted, and the meeting on Saturday, composed of a majority of the policy holders, unanimously adopted it and passed the following rwMolutionl:( That all policies of tha "Farmers' Mutual Insurance Association" of New- S berry County, issued under the old charter, be cancelled by February 24, 1 1894. t On that day there will be another S meeting of the policy holders to shape the afntirs of the company to be organ- c ized under the new charter. t A committee of five-consistidg of S J. A. Slizh, L. P. Miller. D. J. Hentz, 5 A. J. Gibson and Dr. W. E. Lake was appointed to draft a constitution C and by-laws to be submitted at the r meeting on February 24. It was decided to have two directors fr.m each township, instead of one as a heretofore. The following "ere elected: 8 Township No. i-H. H. Folk, B. C. t Matthe "s. Township No. 2-A. J. Gibson, B.

A Batch of Interesting News from on Sister Ciiy. i [Correspondence Herald and News.] PROSPERITY, Junuary, 22.-Mr. H C. Moseley has returned from Florida whither be had gone Dn a busines trip. A. H. Kohn ought to have the velloa flag raised over his residence. He, hi: wife, mother, aunt and three childret are in bed with grip. Mrs. K. bas beet quite ill. It is hoped that nothinf serious may result. The Prosperity Stock Company hav received another carload of line mule! and brood mares. Messrs. Kobn and Birge have just about closed out theii carload of mules which they receivec only a week ago. It is all stuff to cr3 "bard times and no money." To set three carloads of mules in as many weeks, don't look like hard times and no money to this pilgrim. Businest seems to be improving in town. Con fidence in monetary circles is being restored and the outlook seems brighter Our people are all in good circum stances, and no body is going to suffet on these coasts. Last week some black knight of darkness, entered the Post Office by means of a false key, and relieved the cash drawer of its little change, amount ing to about five or six dollars, and then went his way rejoicing. No clue to this knight of the night. As yet, we have no Dispensary estab lished along our coasts, but we have nc guarantee that things will remain so, Our town was "dry" by Statute and by charter, but by the last "June bug' Legislature, at the instance of a mat of "tuperior judgment," the "dry Statute and charter was perfectly an nibilated, and the way made broad and easy to establish a State liquor saloon in our midst. Now what are the people of Prosperity and township number nine going to do about it. Are we going to stultify ourselves by voting for a State liquor saloon now, when in the last election a majority of us voted for prohibition? We cannot say. Othet towns and places have established pre cedents. Newberry might have been, under the first State liquor saloon bill, a dry town had not some of her best church members, and church ofiicers, and prohibitionists recommended cer tain good men for State barroom keepers, just like it was any more honorable, or decent or pious or less sinful for the State, the great State of Soutt Carolina, to sell liquor than Dan Ward, and Jim Dunbar or any body else. The inevitable results are the same, it makes no difference under what conditions whiskey is sold. I only mention Newberry as an illustration, beca use there are many other places itn the State in the same condition. Good men, church men, prohibitionists, and even some ministers of the gospel sanc ti('u these State liquor saloons-they are nothinig else. Now it is a lament able fact that the endorsement by such men as above menti-ned, gives tone and character to liquor selling by the State and many young men who would have blushed with shame to have entered an old time barroom, do not now hesitate to enter a State saloon, because of the lone and character given it under thbe sanction of a law endorsed by the best men ini the church and in the prohibition party. Now, our people ere are no better than tile citizens of Newberry or any other place where whiskey is sold, and we may have a real live State barroom in Prosperity. I don't know. WVe dry town people, a nd w hiskey people, and ch urch people, and prohibition people are getting badly mixed and tangled. Our condition reminds me of a cer tain little boy in our town, who, on a certain occasion, had the misfortune to get one of his trouser legs reversed. When he tried to put his pants on again he easily got one leg in the prop er place, hut the other leg could not gain an entrance. The little fellow tried and cried, and tried and cried, when, finally, he spied Cap:. B. com ing down street; he picked up himself and his pants and came running out on the street with his cheeks streaming with tears, and said, in a crying voice, "Cap-n, ca ca-can y-you t ell a-a-a fel ler h-h-how to un-unwantangle his brich-briches?" Tbe Captain kindly "untangled" the little fellow's "brich es" and he went on his way happy and serene. Now it seems to me that we have got our prohibition-whiskey curch "briches" badly tangled, try ing to get a prohibition leg and a church leg in to reversed whiskey legs, and the three won't work. WVe need a good Samaritan to come along and "untangle" our "briches." YC-BE. MARRI ED, January 9, 1894, at thbe home of the bride, by Rev. M. J. Ept.ng, Mr. J. Luther Mayer and Mies S.

Hf has played Congressman Latimer anc un ielf false in a matter that shows hi i duplicity and want of that trait thal is necessary to make an honorable anc reliable man. He promised my friendi in the spring of last year to endorsE me for the office of statistician of South Carolina, with the furtber declaration to them that Mr. Morton, Secretary of Agriculture, had given him the re fusal of this place. I went to work and got up a petition, which was signed by all the Democatic Congress men who had a chance to sign it. While I was expecting the appoint ment, I saw, through the columns of the papers, the appointment of Col. J. \Wash. Watts, *im inveterate and im placable enemy of the movement, wb bad denounced us as a vile horde, and who had refused in 1894) to sign a testi monial of character for Mr. .Shell. This Congressman Latimer did not understand, and, when Congressman Latimer approached Shell he denied having endorsed Watts and afterwardt when he was knocked down byastreet car and taken to the Metropolitan Ho tel he called Mr. Latimer to his bed side and made a dying confession. As to whetber he believed he was going to die, some people have their doubts. In said "dying confession" he told Mr. Latimer that be had never endorsed Colonel Watts for this position. After wards, in order to verify this state mtnt, which was generally doubted, Mr. Latimer and I went to the agri cultural depsrtmueut and found a letter from Captain Shell endorsing Colonel Watts for this place and saying, among ot1wr things in the letter, that be would be ondorsed by General Hampton and otber prominent Conservative citizens of South Carolina. Now, i1r. Editor, if this is the kind of a man that is to be selected by Mr. Bowden to lead the Reform forces in South Carolina, may God save the movement. I have never been prom ineut other than in the manner stated above, but I wish it distinctly under stood by all parties that this kind of a man cannot lead me. .1 want to be led by men who have never faltered and can be relied upon in daylight or dark. I suggest humbly that the leading true Reformers of each county be calmed together and inaugurate the campaign, in order that justice may be done to all parties. If that is not done trouble is bound to conme, and the abuse and destruction of our leading nien by the Register will not tend to save this movement. I say give us an open and fair field, and, if Bowden 's and Sbell's se a can contral this con yention, then the movement is too weak to have stood anyhow; but I do not believe that the Reform Democrats of this State are ready for any sc. leadership. Very respectfully, J. Y. JONES. Can't be beaten! Mr. J. G. Wittig, Blue Mound, Ills., writes: "I have used Salvation Oil with wonderfuil success for intiammatory rheumatism in my foot. It cannot be beat." Those Laurens Resolutions. Editor Register: The Laurens Conn ty Alliance resolutions whbich I offered have produced such a seethiing political cauldron that I wish to say a few words in reference to them. All Reformers are agreed as to the necessity of having a convention. The resolutions stated the reasons why we preferred July, to wit: giving all can didates an opportunity of putting their claims before the people. 'Then when the township conventions are held the vote?rs will be able to act intelligently in selecting their delegates to the con ventions. For these reasons we prefer a rather late convention. The rea'on we want Tillman to call the convention is because the Farmers Association is in a dormant condition. There has been no reorganization for ive years. The March convention in 1890 did not, if I recollect right, do any t bing but make nominations. We know that Captain Shell was the last State nresident, but with this exception we don't believe there is one man in five hundred who knows the other State, county and township officers. It is ne cessary to have proper rules for hold ing the convention. Tillman being the father of the Reform movement, wie believe he is the proper one to call the convention. We see it stated by some of the anti papers that some of the Reform leaders have decided that Tillman must take a back seat. We don't t>elieve it and they are counting without their host, for'the rank and file, the privates, do not intend that he shall occupy any suchm position. Tillmran is the u-ame we conjure wi thyet. We hope this article will not give the ant: press the jin-jams for the ghost of Irb.; is nowhere hidden in it. In con clusion: we will say let the convention be held when it will, the Reformers of L: urens County will put their shoulders to the wher.l and help roll it to success. J. A. JoNES.
