week so as to g've complete re
turns in the Congressional contest.

The intricacies of the law,
indeed ! Douglass White, of Montgomery,
Ala., killed a woman
? some five years ago. For that
crime through n istrials, reversals,
and soon, he Iras enjoyed six trials.
At the first he was sentenced to
I death, at the second to life impris-j
onment.at the next to fifty years
imprisonment, at the next to ten
years and now he has been acquitted
altogether. Singular enough,
. also, the man is a negro.
One of the best representatives
of the negro race, as well as one
c.f the most sensible, delivered an
address in Washington, I). (J., recently,
in which he gave som?
sound advice to the negroes.
Amongst other things he said:
uTbe best friend of the Southern
negro is the Southern white Democrat.
I assert that neirro labor in
the South is better paid, better
treated and better fed than labor
of the same grade in the North.
I am firm in the conviction that
!*be salvation of the colored race
lies in making strong friends of
those white Democratic neighbors
I and employers." This is good
- sense. This man is of the Booker
Washington type, who has realized
that the only salvation of the negio
lies-in his disposition to be guided
by the whith men amongst whom
he lives, and by grace he must sur
vive, if survive he does,
Charleston will hold her annual
fall festival tins year. The lesti
val will last a week as usual, the
opening day being Oct. 25, It is
proposed to make the festival one
of the most success!ul and attractive
that has ever been given.
Low rates will be obtained from
ihe railroad and every possible
inducement made to carry visitors
.to the city. The amusements
which will be provided promise to
be numerous and varied, insuriug
to all who attend the festivities a
r weeK ol pleasure. lire l*aJa

the festival are now under way.
Reports from different quarters
indicate that (he colleges and

the approaching scholastic year
says the Newberry Voice of the
/ / People. Such substantial indica
tions that the parents of South
Carolina appreciate the value of
t . an education for their children is j
exceedingly gratifying.No doubt;
a great deal of seW'-denial has been
Bp practiced in order that some of
those children might secure an ed
ncation. But it is self-denial in a
good cause'and we have no idea;'
that those parents who have prac-'t
Eg: . ticed it will ever regret having .
done so. We hope that this lively |
interest iu educational matters
will continue to grow. It is a good
omen. It inspires hope in the full
tvue of South Carolina. , 1

The New York Sun in an e Tlorial
bunches some significant
pension facts, so that the inference
drawn is that a great portion of
pensioners are unworthy of government
bounty a d that the list
should be cut down. Figures recently
published show that at the
present, rate of expenditure the
annual pension list has been con
suraing more than nine tenths of
the revenue taken in at all of the
custom houses in the United Slate;
or again, if the custom duties are
considered as paying the general
expenses of the government, j>en
sions have been using up not less
than 96 per cent of the total re.
ceipts from internal revenue,

How To Find Out.
Fill a bottle or common glass
with urine ai d let it stand twenty
lour hours; a sediment or settling
indicates an inhealtliv condition
if the kidneys. When nrineslains
linen it it positive evidence ofkid
uey trouble. Too frequent desire
to urinate or pain in the back, is
ilso convincing proof that the kidneys
and bladder are out of order
WHAT TO DO.
There is comfort in the knowl?dge
so often expressed, that Dr
Kilmer's Sw 'nip-Root, the great
kidney remedy fulfills every wish

ieys, liver, bladdler and evers
nart of the urinary nassacger. It
rorrects inability to hold urine
ind scalding pain in passing it, o?
lad effects following use of liquor,
vine or beer, and overcomes that
inpleasant necessity of being compelled
to get up many times durng
the night to urinate- The
nild and the extraordinary effect
)f Swamp-Root is soon realized.
It stands ihe highest for its wonlerful
cures of the most distressng
cases. If you need a medicins
