The people of South Carolina are still waiting for Mr Ogden's denial of Mr Dixon's charges. but the si K5 """0 / lence of the former gentleman can almost be heard. k' Texas marketed her first bale of new cotton on June 26. It brought thirty cents a pound. And only a , ; week or two ago South Carolina farmers were exhibiting their tirst r blooms. 1 A newspaper special from Pickens , i says that 6ince the closiug of the , dispensary in that county corn has l gone up ten cents a bushel. Won- 1 der how much liquor has gona ' down. ( The cotton crop over the State < ?eems to lie fairlv good, but corn is reported almost a failure in 1 many sections. What a pity the ll 1 ' conditions are not! reversed. A big com crop and less cotton spell pros- ; i parity. With ten judicial circuits and ' two more judges and solicitors on ( the pay-roll certain counties are al- , ready asking for social terms of ] conrt. And it was argued that < these additional circuits would relieve the necessity for special terms ' I for years to come. i ' ? Senator Tillmau will speak in 1 I ^ Greenville on July 4. It is said l that the astute senator scents a ( "coon" up the political persimmon j tree of the Cotton Growers' association. It is not difficult to guess the | identity of the coon that Senator i Tillman thinks he has treed. ! John S W ise, once of \ irginia, ( ! but now of New York, in an ad- 1 dress at Richmond last Febiuarv is * i reported to have said that in Robert ; C Ogden's house "Booker Washington is often an honored guest and . spends weeks at a time" there.

He did - 1 ! t not make tile statement to uisparage, Ogden,but to show tlie inconsistency i J of some who fuss about Roosevelt dining Booker Washington and at j the sauie time wine and bow down to Ogden.
