Mayfield Withdraws.
During his campaign speech at
Chester last Wednesday, .Senatorial
candidate S. G. Mayfield charg j
ed Hon. John L. McLanrin with
having tried to form a Populist
party in this State, and said he
could prove it. Mr. McLabrin
said that it was not so, and he
could prove there was no truth in
the assertion. Mayfield said that 1
if McLaurin could prove it was
not true then he (Mayfield)would
withdraw from the race for Sen
alor; but if he could prove that
hlcLaurin had tried to form such
a political party in South Carolina
then McLaurin should withdraw.
The following day, at Yorkville,
Mayfield made an unusallv
B' olomtent, sneech and brought it to !
! a'close in a very dramatic war
by saying that he had Misrepresented
McLaurin, and that, according
to his promise, he would
withdraw from the race for Senator.
which he thereupon did.
it seems that Mavfieldhad taken
Congressman Strait's word for it
4hatSenator McLaurin had tried
to organize a Populist party in j
this State, but, after he had made j
the assertion on the stump, McLaorin
had proved to him he had >
* not only not attempted any such |
thing, hot that he was mainly in
sininients! in defeating a scheme
to. organize a third party, and
;v May field thereupon announced
Ibis intention of withdrawing.
* -If Mayfield really withdrew from
the race because he had made
false charges against Mr. McLaurin,
and because he had done him
a great injustice, then he has done
v; a manly act, and one which will
^loake bira honored among men.
But, or the other hand, it he was
oolylathe race to advertise him
self forth* purpose ot running for
-Governor next year, or in 1900,
a* has been charged by some, and
was only looking for an opportunity
to withdraw from the contest,
Shen he should be, and will;
be, despised among honorable
mea tor his hypocrisy. If he
nfcliy made false charges against
\ Senator McLaurin, and did so |
f upon fhe word of another,!
without any proof save the word j
of that one, then he acted very 1
unwisely and has been taught a j
very severe lesson. lie must j
"V have had implicit confidence in'
the word of Congressman Strait, j
or, be knew that he could not;
prove his charge, and so made his
j* . volunteer promise to quit il he
could not prove it, knowing full
?/>)! that, hp u.*nnM h;ivp tn nnif
~ T.
Any way one looks at it, it does
not look' well for Mr. May field:
Ho either made his charge against
McLaurin upon the mere state-1
ment of another, without any!
proof of his own, or, he made it
so as to hate an opportunity to
quit the race, knowing that the:
charge could not be sustained.;
Which was it?
. < . 'W i
MGod Almighty hates a quitter."

The Piedmont Headlight, an j
Irby paper, says McLaurin will:
not carry Marlboro county: The
Columbia Record and o'her McLaurin
papers say that Irby will
not carry'Laurens. .

alysis is that it cannot be accepted
as an invariable formula, savsj
the Columbia Evening Record.but
must be regarded as an average.
In many eases there is a large
percentage of truth in rumor and
in an even larger nuniber of cases
there is not even a trace. lint, as I
a general average, Dr. Lindsay's i
analysis is undoubtedly about J
correct.

busily engaged in domestic duties
like like a slave, in order that
the girl may enjoy every luxury:
and do nothing; indeed, many j
hardly let their daughters soil the r
hands, says a quiet observer.
There never was a greater blunder
than to substitute good looks
lor good qualities. Every girl
ought to be brought up to have
regular domestic dulies. Idleness
should be forbidden her. The only
dignified life is a useful one.

those who have dignify and candor
enough to conless their own

have discrimination enough to
detect the ignorance ot others.

The origin of South Carolina's
soubriquet, *kthe I'almetto State,"
is thus explained: uOn June 28,
1776, a force of less than 10(J Carolinians,
under command of Co).
Moultrie, protected by the fortification
on Sullivan's Island in
Charleston harbor, made of the
trunks of the Palmetto, repulsed
the attack of a British fleet under
command of Sir Peter Parker, and
when the State of South Carolina
was organized, the State seal which
was first used in May, 1777, was
made to commemorate this victor}'.
A palm tree, growing erect on the
seashore, represents the strenth of
the fort. While at its base an oak
tree, torn from the ground and dennved
of its branches, recalls the
r ^
British fleet, built of oak timber,
overcome by the palmetto."
