Judge Simonton has decided that
railroads can haul and deliver whis-
key without fear of it being seized
by Tillman spies.
The question is asked if the future
historian will speak of the dispen
sers and the armed hosts of whiskey
spies as the “Palmetto Regiment.”
“The Reform Advocate” is the la
test “official organ” for Tillman in
Florence. This “organ” has the reg
ular stops, and in whineing notes
plays the same old tunes.

From what we gather, the finau-
cirl situation does not seem to im-
>rove. Congress has met, the debate
on the silver question drags along
wearily, and it is not likely that any
good results will be felt soon from
that source. The repeal of the Sher
man bill might restore confidence in
the value and stability of the dollar,
and in that way cause those who have
funds boarded up to invest in notes
and securities, when they have reason
to know that those notes and securi
ties will be repaid in the same meas
ure of value as when they invested.
But as long as the investing pnblic
has any cause to believe that the cur
rency might be depreciated, just
so long will they abstain from part
ing with their money or len ding
credit toothers.
There is as much money in the
country to-day as there was a year
ago, for the gold that has been
shipped away has been more
than replaced by the purchase of
4,f00.000 ounces of silver per month
by the government Yet the scarci
ty of currency has never been equal
ed. Confidence in investments and
securities of all kinds has been shak
en to the core, and pnblic confidence
is a thing of slow growth. People
have become alarmed about things
which there was no canse for; cur
rency, the very article they first be
came alarmed about they have fool
ishly hoarded in their bosoms.
There is no doubt about the scar
city of currency, but if those who
have money will put it freely into
circulation, and it is kept there, a
little will go a long ways, but if the
farmer sells his bale of cotton and
keeps the proceeds in his pocket, it
it will not serve to pay for another
bale of cotton, until it gets to the
merchants or banks again.
If the money in the community
was deposited in the banks in
stead Of keeping it out, the banks
would immediately pay it out again
and again, and if the farmers
and merchants would, they conic
very materially help themselves am
others by simply putting their
money into circulation.
While there will not be as much
money in circulation as usual at
first, we believe that as soon os cot
ton begins to move away, that it wil
suiely bring hack gold in return,
And, with the return of gold, wil!
come confidence and prosperity.
shocks of oats ami hay were on every
hand. In one thing the people of
Ohio and Indiauua are far behind
South Carolina, and that is in regard
to the fences, especially the old
worn fence that very sadly mars the
beauty of their farms. They have
competitively little timber and why
they should waste it in making rails
is often asked. Chicago wfts reached
about two o'clock on Saturday and
up to this time we have had very
ittle opportunity of seeing the many
beautiful things in this truly won
derful city, the bustle and rush of
which is bewildering to town folks.

The WwrM’s Fair.
Chicago, August 20.—The Edi
tors excursion left Columbia on
schedule time Tuesday, the only mis
hap attending the departure was the
absence of the Pullman cars that;
were to have been wating for us at
our starting place. The run was
made from Columbia to Spartanburp
without incident, and there we were
joined by the balance of the excur
sionists. Left Spartanburg on time
and the train was soon pulling its
way up the mountains, no easy task
as two locomotives had to be put on
and they puffed and smoked as i:!
they were apparently very nuhap]
and exhausted. We took in all t
beautiful scenery along the route am
li is needless to say how much it was
enjoyed by those accustomed to
ccmparatively level country. Only
short stops were made at Saluda ani

had two hours, the time being spent
in getting supper and viewing this
beautifully situated city. We di<

interesting of the night’s experience
was the ride, in an elevator, to the
of the great Masonic Temple,
imposing structure is built of
granite, marble and steel, and des
pite its dizzy and towering height has
one apperance of great solidily and
strength. To give an idea of its
heigth it is only necessary to men
tion that it is twenty two stories
high and that some of the sto
ries are very lofty. The walks along
state street with its magneficent
stores and other, buildings, all bril
liant with electric lights, was almost
worth the fatigue of this trip.
We will have to defer any mention
of the fair until our next trip.
It is simply hut just to say that we
had three of the finest Pullman cars
in which to make the trip and that
they were in charge of conductor A.
T. Darrow, a native of North Caro
lina, one of the most perfect gentle
men and most obliging officials it has
ever been our fortune to meet. The
whole party became his devoted ad-
miren.
