Not content to let the Charles
ton Sun fawn over Judge Ben-
et, the News and Courier must
needs do a little gushing on its
own account, and compliment
Judge Benet because he man
aged to conduct himself in an
ordinarily able manner while
holding court in Charleston. If
Judge Benet had done anything
especially worthy of favorable
comment, i twould be all right
to puff him a little, possibly, but
when his decisions in the dis
pensary cases were especially
infamous, a newspaper like the
News and Courier is going al
most too far out of its way when
it attempts to plaster on compli
ments altogether uncalled for.
However, theNews and Courier
never seems to tire of bootlick
ing those who are continually
kicking it about.

The Governor has said that he
would use the penitentiary method
with the county chain gangs, giving
them a rebate of one-twelfth of their
sentence for good behavior. It is a
good move, and will doubtle s work
pood to those in charge of the gang

throwing 1,700 employes out of work.
The shut-down was the result of a
strike by the 270 weavers The weav
ers prevented others from taking
their places. The cause of the strike

of the weavers. After a week the
strikers places will be filled.

deal of amusement from certain fea
tures of his Presidential boom He
recently received a letter, misspelled
and almost illegible, from a man

who was a good judge of horses and
cattle, and that he would vote for
Morton if the latter was nominated.

Gov. Stone, of Missouri, has ap
pointed Mrs. Alexandet H. Kayser.
"Captain General of Commonwealth
It is explained that this unique ap
pointment is the result of her partici
pat ion in the interstate prize drill at
the fair grounds last July. She was
sponsor for the Kansas City Zouaves,
and devoted herself enthusiastically to
the service of the soldiers. Mr. and
Mrs. Kayser met Gov. Stone on one
of his recent visits to St. Ixmis. when

him about her appointment. Gov.
Stone replied that he had notforgotten
her, and the commission, signed by
the Governor, with the seal of the
State upon it. has been received.
THE "LILLY WHITE” CONVENTION.
The Melton faction of the Re
publican party held their con
vention in Columbia on Tues
day. C, 8 Nettles, Esq. was
elected temporary chairman and
Dr. 8araps. Pope permanent
chairman. The former made a
short speech in which he pictur
ed the glories of the Republican
party and spoke of the assemb
ling of the Republican conven
tion in Columbia as a happy
day for South Carolina. Dr.
Pope, in his address, after tak
ing the chair, dealt some heavy
blows to his former associates,
the Tillmanites, which weie
doubtless very much appreciat
ed by his new found friends.
The platform adopted by the
convention is conservative, con
sidered from a republican stand
point, and worthy the approval
of democrats and republicans
alike who believe in honest gov
ernment and fair elections.
The following delegates were
elected to the St. Louis conven
tion: L. D. Melton, E. M. Bray-
ton, Geo. W. Murray, S. E.
Smith, R. M. Wallace, A. T.
Jennings, T. L. Daniels and A.
M. Dawson. The convention
adjourned just after a memor
ial to Congress was adopted
asking that body to investigate
and ascertain as to whether a
Republican form of government
is in force in this State.
JOHN D. KENNEDY
Gen. John D. Kennedy died
at his home near Camden early
last Tiiesday morning of appo-
plexy. Gen. Kennedy was a
gallant soldier in the war and
was much beloved by all who
knew him. He was appointed
consul-general to Shanghai, Chi
na, by President Cleveland dur
ing the latter’s first administra
tion, and filled the position with
signal ability. Harrison, how
ever, did not allow him to con
tinue to hold the place, and Gen.
Kennedy was forced to return
to the United States. After re
suming his law practice at Cam
den,he met with success beyond
his expectations, and his sudden
death is a blow to Camden and
the State, as well as to his r'anv<
ily. He was about 56 years old
at the time of his death and full
of health and vigor.
DO YOUR DUTY AND REGISTER.
It is reported that some of
our people are indifferent about
registering as they do not care
to vote again. All who reason
thus make a mistake—the time
may soon come when they may
want a registration certificate
more than anything else. No
man can be compelled to vote
and the possession of a regis
tration ticket does not neces
sary imply that the possessor
will make use of it. Therefore,
all patriotic citizens should go
and register at once. The pres
ent condition of things is not
going to continue forever and
it is absolutely necessary that
the intelligent voters of the
State register immediately.
The outcome of the meeting
of the Irby committee in Col
umbia last week was somewhat
of a drawn battle between Irby
and Tillman. Resolutions were
introduced in the interest of
both champions and withdrawn
and compromise resolutions
substituted. Both sides claim
ed the victory and the bolting
question was left to the May
convention. There will scarce
ly be any necessity, however,
for Ben Tillman to bolt at Chi
cago, as the convention will
probably endorse free silver.
Not being able to bolt the Dem
ocratic party and organize and
lead a silver party, “Our Noble
Leader” will be left somewhat
out in the cold.
Important Meeting
April 21.
The Tobacco Growers’ Associ-
_ L ation will hold a meeting on
The Warehous-i at Lamar to be Rebuilt,- t , ie 31st of this mon th, and, as
Making the Fourth in Thi* County. ! it v/ jji be xer y important One, it
The tobacco warehouse at La ! is hoped there will be a full at-
mar is to be rebuilt, and as the tendance. It is to the interest of
citizens of Hartsville have de- the town and county that an
cided to build one at that place, approximate estimate of the
the Lamar warehouse will make crop to be planted in this coun-
the fourth in Darlington Coun
ty. With four warehouses in
the county for the sale of this
year’s crop of tobacco, there is
no reason why a single pound
should be sent to foreign mar
kets. It is an unquestionable
fact that the local market paid
as good prices for tobacco last
year as any market in the south,
and the fact that the sales of
the two warehouses here amoun
ted to something over two mil
lion pounds hears out that state
ment. With two warehouses
here, one at H irtsville and one
at Lamar, besides the markets
of Florence, Sumter, Timmons
ville and other places in the
State, every pound of tobacco
raised in South Carolina this
year should be sold within her
borders. The buyers on the
South Carolina markets hold or
ders from the largest tobacco
manufacturers in the world, and
can and will pay as much for
the leaf as the buyers on the
markets of North Carolina and
Virginia. The tobacco men of
this State have worked hard for
the establishment of a good,
sound tobacco market in '4outh
Carolina, and now that we have
it, let us retain it!
ty this year be made, and the
different members of the assoc
iation can contribute greatly to
this end by gathering together
as much data as possible be
tween now and the mooting.
The more tobacco planted the
better and more numerous will
be the buyers on this market,
and every tobacco planter in
Darlington county should do
what he can towards making
Darlington the leading market
in the State.
Charleston is to have, about
September 1, a direct line of
steamers to Liverpool. The
South Carolina and Georgia R.
R. is now having plans prepar
ed for the docks and terminus of
the railroad on the Cooper River.
Let us all rejoice at this good
news. If Charleston’s business
men will do their best and render
all possibleassistancetotbis new
enterprise, the old city will un
doubtedly regain her commer
cial supremacy. There is money
enough there to make Charles
ton a largb city, and if her peo
ple will invest it in Charleston,
the improvement in the business
of the port will be truly won
derful.
The Laurens Advertiser of
last week says: _
The Press and Banner sars, that
it does not iret the Congressional
Record since Wade Hampton went
out of the Senate. And who does?
The Congressional Record
comes to The News jffice reg
ularly, sent, I suppose, by kind
ness of Congressman McLaurm.
It cannot be said against Mc-
Laurin that he does not accord
the newspapers the courtesies
to which they are entitled from
their Congressman. While I
was editor of the Cheraw Re
porter, 1 never received a sin
gle public document from Dr.
Strait of the Fifth District.
President Cleveland has ap

A SUNDAY MAIL.
Last Sunday was not only
Easter, but it was a red-letter
day in the Sunday school at
Gully Church. At the begin
ning of the year provisions
were made in the Sunday school
for a banner class and an honor
roll, based on quarterly attend
ance. Misses Nellie Parrott
and Lou Miller had made a very
beautiful banner to be presented
i on that day. The mottoes were
very tastily painted by Miss
Mary Harrell. The banner was
awarded to the infant class
taught by Mrs. H. A. Josey.

Petition Circulated Requesting the

A petition has been circulated
and nutnerousiy signed by the

extend their line to Darlington.
This line would be a great ad
ditionto Darlington’s telegraph
ie facilities and would give the
people a very satisfactory

Mail
Business Men Want A Morning
on the Sabbath.
The business men of the town
are very anxious for the post-
office authorities of the govern
ment to inake provision for a
Sunday morning mail for Dar
lington. The freight train does
not run Sundays and people
have to wait until Sunday night
to get their mail. If the gov
ernment would establish a “star
route” from Florence to Dar
lington to operate on Sundays
only the citizens of Darlington
would be greatly benelitted and
appreciate the effort made to
give better mail facilities.
Since the above was put in
type, Mr. Bright Williamson,
President of the Board of Trade,
has received the following let
ter from the Second Assistant
Postmaster General:
“Again referring to your re
quest for establishment of Sun
day morning star service, one
trip, between Florence and Dar
lington, S. C., I have the honor
to inform you that an advertise
ment has been issued to day in
viting proposals for carrying
the mails on such route, from
July 1, 1896, to June 30. 1900,
and, if a reasonable bid be receiv
ed, the service will be estab
lished.”
