The Florence Convention.
Perhaps there are people who are
laughing at those farmers in Florence
/county who met some days ago
ih convention and resolved to boycott
the American Tobacco Co. And
when the greatness of the trust, on
# i
one hand, and the comparative insignificance
of the farmers, on the
other hand, are considered it does
tend to amnse. But no matter if it
does provoke smiles. It it the right
step. Something has to be done to
check this dangerous trust. It
threatens to rain the tobacco industry
in Soath Carolina. Just at a
time when the farmers were con
grata la ting themselves on having
found something besides cotton for
a money crop this monster comes
*loog and threatens to destroy the 1
industry. The situation is serious.
The American Tobacco Co. has i
millions of dollars and can control i
the market entirely. It can pay
what it wishes for tobacco. Something
will have to be done. It is no ,
t use to depend on legistation to <
ry ^handle the trusts. The trusts con- ;
.dfcol legislation. The only thing (
vJJmt can be done is along the line '
* suggested by the Florence corven,
tiorf^Wiz: refuse to bny the goods of ,
thetrifVt. The farmers, would they
work-in Hudson, could break every ,
1 J
. trust in ttfg* conn try. rney couia
conttolthe }>rlce of cotton and tobacco
and all other product* of the ,
farm. Other people Btand together. t
Why can't the farmers? Let the ,
farmers of Williamsburg follow the
example of our Florence neighbors
and gradually the inovemeut will ,
spread and cease to'be amusing.

A Novel Educational Idea.
Attention is called to the educa
tional campaign which;i?4mentioned
in another column of Thk Record. '
It is announced that on 'the 6th of
September v a ' company of distinguished
college professors will be <
in Kin?stree to address our people
on the question of education. These
gentlemen are representatives of the
several colleges and fitting schools
owned and controlled by the Methodist
cliurch. The idea is a new
one. heretofore each college and
fitting school has sent its representative
out alone to present the claims
of education, but the happy idea of
an educational campaign in which
all should appear has been adopted,
and during the remainder of the vacation
period the representatives of
the colleges and schools will go together
and address the people on 1
this vital quest'ou. Each man mentioned
in connection with the campaign
is a good speaker and thoroughly
acquainted with the subject
to be discussed. Dr Daniel is president
of the Columbia Female College,
and is a live college man. He
-* : ' ' ' ' J *
1ms projected greut improvements on
... c^cilulii^ III tV
thousaud dollars on his building.

Lander cornea in the interest of the
new Lander college, which has been
moved from Williauigtou where it has
Lud a fine renutation for many wars
to Greenwood and magnificently
equipped and endowed. He is an
up to date college man and a good
speaker. Profs Dupre and Sheridan
represent the the two fitting
schools w hich Wofford College owns.
The Methodist church, which from
the beginuinghasstrfcssed education,
has entered upon a decidedly vigorous
campaign within the last year or
two, and this particular idea is only
one expression of its enterprise and
energy. The meeting here on the
6th will be a feast to the town and
surrounding country, and all who
can should attend. We need to be
aroused on this question.
Porttsng ttierc to nn nmn in flip
country who is happier thau Senator
John T Morgan, of Alabama.
For many years the great ambition
of this great man has been to induce
the United States to build the
Nicaranga canal. He has made
this his one great work. The Republican
congress, however, preferred
the Panama route and almost
broke the heart of Morgan. He had
given np] the fight and doubtless
thought his great plan was eternally
buried. Now comes the news that
the Columbian congress refuses to
adopt the treaty which would make
the Panama route possible, and the
only thing left for the President and
his party to do is to fall into Morgan's
plan. Doubtless Senator Mor

Why not have a building and loan I
association in Kiugstree? The old j
town has opened one eye from her
long sleep, and a number of evidence*
of progress are apparent.
Vfhf ihould we not try another eye?
Why not organize this association to
enable men of small means to build
their own homes? 2no town will
prosper when men hare to rent their
homes. There is a pride in the
possession of a home that stimulates
men to a town pride. Nearly all of
the growing towns in the State owe
their growth largely to the building
and loan idea. Organize such an
association and handsome homes
will go up in Kingstree. Suppose
we try it.
Won Winthrop Scholarship.
TheWinthrop Scholarship from
Williamsburg county has been
awarded to Miss Bessie Harper as
the result of the competitive examination
held here on July 10. Miss
Harper is a graduate of Kingstree
Graded school and is withal a very
bright and studious young lady.
The fact that she won this scholarship
over seven competitors speaks
well for her intellectual training
and attainments.

A Sad Recall for Mr Qause.
Hon W B Ctause of Cowards
was in the city yesterday. He
was recalled in the evening by
news of the serious illness of his
little baby girl. When he left
home the little one was apparently
quite well and bright. He arrived
just in time to see her
breathe her Inst. The particulars

afternoon and the little body will
