THE OUTLOOK.
For the past few days, candor re
quires us to say that the outlook for
the future has not been bright. It
may be the darkness before the dawn.
Let us hope that it is. But with cot
ton at 53 cents and falling a half a cent
a pound from Saturday to Tuesday,
and no demand much for it even at
that price, and with the farmers owing
bank notes and liens and the banks
and merchants pressing for their
money, there is scarcely a ray of light
to penetrate the gloom. Five cents
cotton will not do much debt paying.
It costs about one-fourth of that to
have it picked. If people who owe
money now are pressed the country
will soon be bankrupt and a few men
will own it, and the balance of us will
have to work for those who will be
come, of necessity, owners of the prop
erty. This is a financial crisis through
which we are passing, but it is no time
for brave men with stout beqrts to be
come gloomy and despondent. We are
bound to get through, and the victory
will not be to the faint heart nor to the
timid.. It is no time to nurse our trou
bles nor to sit still and brood over
them. We should face the situation
like men and press forward with hope
to the future. The busier we are the
less time we will have to talk and
think of the hard times Let us go to
work and meet them and brush away
the difficulties, doing our duty faith
fully as it presents itself, and leave the
consequences with a wise and overrul
ing Providence, and all will be well.
We attended in Columbia some ten
days ago a meeting of the Executive
Committee of the State Press Associa
IL:Uere taken to arrange a
program for the next annual meeting
and everything will be done that is
possible to revive an interest in the
association. It was gratifying to us to
know that the other members of the
committee felt such an ibterest in
working up a good and attractive pro
gram. It was also a pleasure to have
with us at this meeting our beloved
and venerable Chaplain, Rev. Sidi H.
Browne, who is full of enthusiasm and
active in interest for the good of the
association. We hope to have the
benefit of his wise counsels and good
judgment for many years to come.
It is time for the Columbia Register
to stop talking about Independents.
Can't you find something else to write
about? Those men whom it terms In
dependents put out no ticket and are
good and true Democrats. We hope
the Register may be able to find some
other subject on which to paragraph.
The State threatened some days ago
to eschew politics and devote its space
and enemgies to building up the material
interests of Columbia and South Caro
lina. We had hoped that it would carry
this threat into execution, but as yet
- ~.L . we note it pays its devotions to politics.
Mr. Gonzales is a strong and a forcible
writer, and if he would devote his
talents and bend his energies to the
material development of South Caro
lina he could do a good work for his
- State. We have entirely too much
of politics any way.
We notice in the Greenville News
that a charge of something over a
hundred dollars was made of tbose
gentlemen who assembled in conven
tion in Columbia on 52th of September
for the use of the Hall of the House of
Representatives. We would like to
know if it is true. Of course we know
it costs something to light up the Hall
and clean it up after the convention
adjourned, but we did not know a
charge was made of the members of the
convention. Was a charge made and
paid for by the members of the conven
tion of the 19th? We are only asking
for information.
NOT FOR GAIN.
A number of the opponents of the
present State ring who for one reason
or another opposed nominations by the
recent convention are receiving a good
deal of rather sticky molasses and
water flattery. They will find, how
ever, that their present position will
not saae4henrfrbm abuser arnd -misrep
2n tesenitation if at any time in the future
they may dare to lift hand or voice
against the ricig, inside the so called
Democratic organization or otherwise;
and that if, like General Richbourg,
they happen to mistake refawm taffy
for sincere good will they will share
the fate of that much betrayed soldier
and find themselves as thoroughly dis
liked and boycotted as the most unre
constructed, impenitent and persistent
bolter, kicker and rebel of us all.
Greenville News.
The Herald and News opposed the
nomination of a State ticket in opposi
tion. to the ticket put out on the 19th,
and, more, we were opposed to the
holding of the "True Democratic" con
vention. We do not expect to be saved
from abuse and misrepresentation by
the ring, and we are not fooled by any
"water flattery," whatever that may be.
We did not take this position with the
hope of office or reward of any kind.
-...~ There is yet left, we hope, such a thing
as doing what one sees and believes is
right and for the best of the State,
without the hope of gain entering as a
factor. We have asked no favors of
the ring and do not intend to ask any
and neither do we expect to be re
warded for anything we have said or
done, further than the satisfaction
which one feels for having done what
was the right thing to be done as all the
facts, appeared to him. The Herald and
News does not undertake to speak for
anyone but itself. If we should ever be
foolish enough to seek office we do not
propose to apologize for the positions
we have heretofore occupied. The true
newspaper should not be the blind
slave of any faction nior even of any
party. No, brother, it was not for
gain.
The State says it has marked those
who opposed nominations in the re
cent convention for the headsman's
axe. No one need have any fear of
this axe. In fact if any of those del
gates ,who were :there desire politi
cal preferment it would be a winning
card to court a few strokes of this axe.

CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION.
The Herald and News is on record on
the subject of a Constitutional Conven.
tion. This question has been agitated
for several years. Opposition to # is
no new departure for us.
The Legislature at its last session
passed a joint resolution providing.fo
alvote on the question of calling a Con
stitutional Convention. It is now left
with the people whether they will vote
for the Convention or not. ~ In the first
place we would like for some advocate
of a new Constitution to state some
good reason for such a conventiou.
About the only argument we have
heard in favor of it, if argument you
can call it, is that ithe present constitu
tion is a relic of radical rule in this
State, that it was made by the radicals,
and that therefore we should throw it
away and make a new one. That is no
reason at all.
To our mind there are many and
unanswerable reasons against a Con
stItutional Convention. This is an im
portant question and we want to state
these reasons calmly and deliberately
and so that the readers of this paper
may know what they are doing when
they vote for or against this question in
November.
In the first place the way we have
been divided and torn up by factional
strife and prejudice in the last few years
the people are in no coBdition to make
an organic law for the State. When we
come to make a constitution we want
to be guided by wisdom and broad
patriotism and by a conservatism that
will take in the whole State and so act
as will best subserve the interests of all
the people. To do this we want to be
in a condition that our best and ablest
men will be sent as delegates to-this
convention.
Thepresent constitution has been in
force for twenty-five years and many,
if not all, of its provisions on which
there could be any doubt as to a proper
iBtrepretation have been adjudicated
by the. courts and the law on these
points settled by the highest tribunal
in the Sta. If we make a new con
stitution all this will have to be done
over again and it will increase litiga
tion and create a deal of trouble and
confusion. True this would be good for
the lawyers but we are looking after the
best interests of all the people.
If there is any serious defect in the
present constitution it can be readily
mended by amendment which is a very
simple process. Lastelection we amend
ed it by abolishing the office of County
Commissioner and putting in its place
the office of Supervisors, though there
is great doubt as to whether this change
will prove a good one.
As little as you may think of it the
holdingof a Constitutional Convention
will be an expensive piece of business.
It will-cost at least as much as a legis
lative session which is not less than
$50,000 and it may cost a great deal
more. Times hard, money scarce, cot
ton low and we can hardly pay our
,taxes now, and yet talking about spend
ing $50,000 or $100,000 of the people's
money for something without which
they would probably be better off. We
had better go slow along this line.
These are no times for foolishness and
reckless spending of the people's money.
Suppose a convention is called. When
it meets it can do what it pleases and
we will have to take what it gives us
and grin and endure it whether .we
ike it or ra,t. When the resoluti on
jcalling the convention was on its pas
sage in the Legislature a motion was
made to have the new constitution
when framed referred back to the peo
pIe to be voted on and ratified or re,
jected, but this motion was promptly
voted down. So if the convention is
called, when it meets it can just do
what it pleases and the people will be
given no opportunity to say what they
think of it, but they will have to take
what is given them, pleased or not as
the ease may be. And the trouble is
you have no opportunity tosay whether
it is good or bad. We would like to
know what the organic law is to be be
fore we agree to change it.
The idea no doubt will be to put in a
property or educational qualification
for voting and if so many good people
will be disfranchised. There is talk of.
doing away with the two mill school
tax, the only school fund wh'b 'iches
and benefits the great , sof the people.
The State now spen.as half as much for
the higher education of some 800 boys
as she does for the 200,003 children in
the public schools. There is no telling
what will be done and you will not
know until it is done and then you
can't help yourself.
We hope the voter will think of
these thinfg and if after giving the mat
ter careful consideration he concludes
that there are good and sensible reasons
for holding a Constitutional Conven
tion at a cost to the tax payers of from
$50,000 to $100,000 why, then let him
vote for it. But on the other hand if
he concludes there is no good reason
for holding such a convention and for
the making of a new constitution, why
let him cast h is vote against it and also
tell his neighbors to do the same thing.
We would be glad to have short
articles from the people on this subject
especially those who favor the conven
tion so that if there is any good rea
san for holding it we may hear of it.
Senator David Bennett Hill has be~
unanimously and with great enthusi
asm nominated by the Democrats as
their candidate for Governor of New
York.
He did not want the nomination but
because the unanimity with which it
was given him he could not refuse.
His speech to the convention was a
broad gauge one and liberal in spirit
and temper and did him great credit.
He is a big man. By making the fight
for Governor he has all to gain and
nothing to lose. He spoke kindly of
Cleveland to the conventlon and seems
to have the united support of the Demo
crats of the State. New York is a doubt
ful State and if be should be able to
keep it in the Democratic column he
will -stand a fair chance of being the
Democratic nominee for President in
1896 and if he should be defeated for
Governor he goes back to his place in
the Senate to await his time. The
Republicans have nominated Levi P.
Morton,Vice-President under Mr Harri
son, as their standard bearer. He is a
clean man and has the "barrel."
The fight in New York will be a
stubborn one but we expect Mr. Hill to
win.
The State Convention of the 25th was
short and did nothing but adjourn, but
the caucus preceding it was long. It is
well that nothing was done. Some
persons are disposed to criticize a little
severely those delegates who withdrew
when it was determined to make nomi
nations. So farasNewberry is concerned
the delegates simply did what they
were instructed to do by those who sent
them there, and, the convention had
notice of it before hand. The less said
about the whole thing now, the better.

Some Observations From Some People in
Our Prosperons Sister City.
PnOSPEBiTy, Octob3r 1.-As our peo
ple pass and repass, they sometimes make
some observations that are good, some
indifferent and some bad. There are some
to be perpetuated and .me are soon for
gotten. Some one has observed:
That a light was sean in the direction of
Little Mountain Thursday, night and
Mr. J. A. Boland's ginnery and
macbinery bined to the ground that
same night, therefore the light was from
that burning.
That Dr. J. Hawkins of Orangeburg
was seen on our streets last Saturday and
wrs happily greted by his many friends
who hope he may accept the work offered
him in our county and b- -ome one of us.

Nora Russell, of Newberry, are visiting

might have been, at lepst, as the one of

high apprecd .UU nisterial office
and offers the mourner's bench to their
misguided office-s-3king preachers to turn
from the error of their ways by repenting
of their folly.
That Rev. R. E. Livingston, ol Lexing
ton, is visiting relatives and friends in
this.count and was seen on our streets
lastSatuay.
That cotton is too low for our people
to feel "happy and so-one."
That two excursions passed here this
week, one to Charleston, the other to
Asheville, N. C., and both pretty well
patronised, which goes to show that
money is not as scarce as hens' teeth yet.
That Mr. A. J. Bedenbaugh is very ill.
That Misses Lucy Wright and Lizzie
Fellers, of Newberry, are visiting the
Misses Bowers.
That all good people should refrain
from voting for these old bachelor-office
seekers.

purposes for which it is Intended, as Cha~m
berlain 's Psi n kBalnm. Hardly a week passes
but some member of the family has need of
it. A toothache or headache may be cured
by it. A touch of rheumatIsm or neuralgia
quieted. The severe pain of a burn or scald
promptly relieved and the sore healed in
much less time than when medicine has to
be sent for. A sprain may be promptly
treated before inflammation sets in which in
suresa cure in about one-third oi the time
otherwise required. Cuts and bruises should
receive immediate treatment before the
parts beconme swollen, which can only be
done when Pain Balm Is kept a.; hand. A
sore throat may be cured before it becomes
serious. A troublesome corn may be removed
by applying it twice a day for a week or two.
A lame back may be cured and several days
of valuable time saved or a pain In the side
