THUKSDAY, NOVEMBER 26. 1903. 1 Representative Morrell, of Pennsylvania, has introduced a bill in to render inoperative the ^ jim crow car laws in the South. How sock cattle as this Pennsylvania crank erer manage to break into Cougress is a mystery. Because her beauty had beeu marnd by illness Mrs Brenuan, committed suicide * in Chicago last week. Here is a case where ; ugliness was as destructive as < the "fatal gift of beauty" is popu- 1 larly sapposed to be. "Protection is a system of taxa- < tion whereby many are robbed in order that a few may be hot-housed by legislation into artificial prosperity," is the way the Hon John Sharpe WilHiams, of Mississppi, < the newly elected leader of the Dem- , ocratic forces in Congress, neatly j puts it I Roosevelt, the negrophylc, has reappointed Joshua ? Wilson postmaster at Florence, S. C. This was to be expected, of course. Still the people of Florence have no kick ooming if, as report has it, many of ( the bosiuees men of the town signed a petition stating that Wilson had made an efficient, courteous and obliging official. There seems to be no danger of Mrs Carrie Nation's falling into innocuous desuetude. Last week the Kansas prohibition freak butted into the United State Senate and in the midst of the serious deliberations of $hat austere body, shouted out, "Saloons are anarchy! Saloons are treason and conspiracy!" She was expelled from the gallery and later on fined $25 in the police court. Former Lieutenant Governor James H Tillman, taking umbrage at a sermon preached by a Beaufort minis ter, in which he alluded to tbe Tillman trial and the verdict of the Lexington jury, wrote the preacher a letter referring him to certain passages in the Bible, which he (Tillman) deemed apposite to the subject. It is on record that even the devil < can quote bcripture effectively to 1 carry his point. . i Thirty-one men, mostly employees of the road, were killed in a head < end collision last> week on the "Big | Four" railroad up in Illinois. This frightful loss of life, it is said, was caused by a conductor's disobedience of orders. It is customary in rail- I road wrecks where an employee is to . blame, to dismiss him from service; < and when an official is at fault noth ing is done. There is a law in most < States fixirg capital punishment as < the penalty for the murder of one < man. When wholesale slaughter 5 occurs through criminal negligence j this same law ought to apply, * whether the guilty man be employee j or high official. V" . " . ' - VT.. J . Mr A C Kaufman's term having xpired as commissioner of schools, 3or Heyward will soon appoint lis successor, and the incumbent it i candidate for re-appointment. Ou iccouut of Mr Kaufman's peculiai riews on the race questiou and or tindred subjects?especially when he s interviewed by Northern newo papers?there is some objection in nVtnrloetan >iia fillincr the noflitior igain. There are a pleuty of gooc men in Charleston to take care ol the city schools and Governor Hey ward will, unless we are much mistaken, give the place to a man win is above the suspicion of having en iorsed Crum for collector. TILLMAN QUOTES SCRIPTURE Comes Back at a Beaufort Minister Referring Him to Car tain Biblical Text In a letter received from Edge held Saturday a gentleman secured a copy ol a Idler recenilv writter by Col. James H Tillman to a minister of the Gospel at B^auton who preached a sermon in whicl I I. -J-J . I. l..? ne auuueu 10 l ie rcivm uuuuirr tbiough which Col Tillintit had passed ami the verdict of \lie Lexington jury. The following is a copy of the letter. 'Edgefield, S. 0. November 10 1903. 44l'o Kev VV L Git hens, Beaufori S.C.?Sir 1 notice in the Stati i)t today what purports to be an excerpt from a sermon delivered by you on last Sunday, your lex1 being from 21sL cbupter.lS' n verse of the Gospel of St. Matthew.

I heartily commend to your de voul study also the 5th verse o the afore-mentioned chapter ot St Matthew. Verr truly, James U Tillman." P. S.? YoOr congregatio. mignt also read the 15th verse. This letter was turned 'over t< the religious editor to loek up thi verses alluded to. The verse froi which Rev W L Gilheoe took hi text reads us follows* ' Now in the morning as he returned into thecily he hungered ' Then follow the verses wliert Christ cursed the fig tree and saic that it would never more bear fruit. The texts from which the minis ter is requested to preach are a follows: "For what judgement ye judge ye shall be judged; and with wha1 measuro ye mete itshi'l b? measured to vo uagain". "And win beholdest thou the mole that is ith.v brother's eve but considered not the beam that is in thine own eve?" The verse the minister is ask<?<] to study reads thus; "Thou hypocrite, first cast on the b'janri out of thine own eve: and thenshalt thou see clearly ti cast out the mote out of thy broiIter's eye."

Therefore, be it resolved: 1st?That we appreciate the very able, faitnful and efficient services Bro J E Rushton in the pulpit, in " the homes and especially in admin' istering to the sick and in the ma> terial affairs of the church, and his i very valuable services in suppressing the dispensary in our commui uity, and we greatly regret the i necessity for his removal from us. 2nd?That we commend him , most heartily to any other charge to which he may be assigned. 3rd?That we assure our brother of our continued esteem and love. 4th?That this the preamble and resolutions be published in the ! county papers and in "The Southern Christian Advocate".

Carelessness is responsible for many a railway wreck and the same causes are making human wrecks of sufferers from Throat and Lung troubles. But since the advent of Dr King's New Discovery for Consumption, Coughs and Colds, even the worst cases can be cured, and hopeless resignation is no longer necessary.

"Chamberlain's Pain Balm is considered the best liniment on the market," write Post& Bliss, of Georgia, Vt. No other liniment will heal a cut or bruise so promptly. No other affords such quick relief from rheumatic pains. No other is so valuable for d-ep seated pains like lame back and pains in ihe chest. Give this liniment a trial and you will never wish to be without it. Sold bv I)r D C Scott, Kingstree; Lake City Drug Co., Lake Citv; Dr W S Lynch, Scrantou.
