> Vi. S?iait j) man ?? ^mttywiL WEDNESDAY, AUGUST $ 1892. * " ; - * State Executive Committee. The State Democratic Executive Committee met in Colombia on the State Chairman irby, r, mill a *utt board, Wfr ?xc?pted. signed by-Sam Wm Quattlebaum and Aaron Cannon, of the Conservative faction, was received by the Commit tee and read by the Secretary. This communication was somewhat lengthy, bat the gist of the matter is '^embraced in 4*e following questions, and their answers by the State Exec utive Committee, which, together with certain amendments to the Rules of the party, are ve*y important. The following are the questions and answers referred to : First. Are avowed third party men to be permitted to vote at the Demo ^eratkt primariet jar August, wbeu delegates are to be elected to the September convention, which will nominate the Democratic ticket for Presidential electors for South Caro lina, as well as the ' Democratic ticket Sot State officers ? ? Second. Are onenroBed Demo ' -crafcs entitled to vote at the Demo cratic primaries? lu regard to this we are informed ^^tjitMjT some Cotmtiee have adopted a rule closing the rolls five days before the primary or at the last regular club meeting before the pri mary ; while in others no such action has been taken, and the rolls, there fore, remain open for the addition of names on the day of the primary of Democrats not previously enrolled. The State Democratic constitution declares that the "club roils of the party shall constitute the registry list" at the August primary. Will the County reg a! ?lions ?i tbi*-Ra????, -esc* County fop'ilself in the absence <?f a gniierai rule, be recognized as ?4?g?tim?ie in this election ? Any reasonable rule, well under stood and promulgated, by which every facility is afforded to Demo erat8 to vote, and which, at the same time, sufficiently protects the primary from repeating and from the partici pation of those who are not Demo crats, seems to us to meet the re qnirement8 in this matter. > Upon the remaining questions, we j simply request your announcement of J opinion, so that uniformity of action over the State may be secured. Third. Is a Democrat entitled to wote elsewhere than where he is en roiled? Fourth. Must a democrat be a reg istered voter, under the registration laws of the State, in order to be enti tled to vote at the August primary. Fifth. Rule uine, adopted by your committee, states that "a majority of the votes cast shall be necessary to . nominate candidates, and to elect del egates to the State Convention." We are informed that at a primary .heretofore held a serious question ?rose whether a candidate, who had * majority over competitors for the same office, was nominated, because he did not have a majority of the entire poll list, some of the voters ftaving omitted to vote for the office in question. We respectfully ask y oar committee to state whether a candidate baring a majority of all the -votes cast for the position for which he offers, is thereby nominated ; or whether it is necessary for him to have a majority of the entire poll lists though some voters cast none ibr hint or his opponents Sur the same *>*fc*Z - The following are the answers of | Executive Committee to the fort-go ing questions, as propounded by .Messrs Dibble, Quattlebaum and Cau tion : Dr. Gorman moved that it be re ceived as information. Amended by CDuucan Bellinger that it be referred to the committee of the whole for consideration and answer. The amendment was carried. Upon motion,the questions asked in the letter were taken up seriatim. In reply to the first questions asked it was decided to refer the committee represented by Mr. Dibble to Rule 1 (of the rules governing primary lections) as here amended to read as follows : The managers at the primary election shall require every voter at a primary election to pledge himself to abide the result of the primary, and to support the nominees of the party ; and to * require every voter in a primary election jteiake the following oath, to wit : * - I do solemnly swear that I am duly qualified to vote at this election, 'according to the rules of the Demo cratic party, and that I have not voted before at this election. The following words in said rule being stricken out : Application for membership, or of fering to voie in the primary election, shall be deemed equivalent to such declaration and pledge." The amendment was made upon motion of Mr. Jordan of Aiken. To answer the second question, the writers of tlie letter were referred to the latter portion of Article six of the constitution of the party, which requires that the club-rolls of the party shall constitute t'ie registry list, and also to the amended rules adopted to-night and reading as follows : "No person shall vote unless he has been enrolled on the club list five days before th* first primary election The club lists shall be inspected by and cettified to by the secretary and president, and turned over to the managers to be used as a registry list." This amendment, upon motion of Mr. Bellinger, was adopted The committee answers "No" to the third question. As to the fourth question the com mittee decides that registration under the laws of the State was not required as a qualification to vote in the primaries. A? to the fifth question, the Execu tive Committee refers the inquirers to the latter part of rule 10, already "force, and reading as follows : - *"Tbe question of a majority vote shall be determined by the number of votes cast for any particular office, and not by the whole number of votes cast in aiiy primary." It was moved and carried that the campaign meetings for the benefit of candidates for Congress and the office of Solicitor as to time and place be left to agreement between the candi dates. It Was? "Resolved, That under the rules of the party only three managers of elect ion can be appointed for the pri mary." Also adopted as an amendment to the roles that the respective County Committees are hereby authorized to adopt, such rules as will prevent the plumping of candidates. Mr. Dibble's inquiries of the State j Executive Committee wert well put j and timely. The committee dodged that as to the right of third party ites to vote, and refused to specify that the "party" the voter is pledged to support is the "Democratic party." The Irby dictum that club member ship is not a prerequisite to voting was reversed, and voters must be members of a Democratic club five days before the election or they can not vote. Democrats can only vote at precincts where they are enrolled, and they need not be registered voters. The Sheppard-Tillman agree ment is flagrantly violated, with the object of giving the Tillman?tes a majority of the managers. "Oh Consistency Thou Art a JeweL" Oow is this? The Farmer's Alliance professes to be a strictly non-political or non-partizan or ganization. Still, representatives of the order from all the various counties composing the Sixth Congressional District met here last Monday to select a candidate for Congressman, to which position there are somr four or five aspirants, to wit : Senator Evans, of Marlboro, vice-president of the State Alliance, and Col. Tindall, of Clarendon, Secretary of State, both of whom are large farmn** srru~ TIT full symjpat^ witn the Alliance , Senator ttigham, a farmer; James Norton, of Marion, a farmer, and J L. McLanren, of Marlboro, a lawyer. After a heated discussion, as we have heard, this grave body concluded to take one of the tabooed class, a lawyer from Marlboro, whose profession has heretofore been put under the ban by the sturdy farmers of the country, thus ignoring the claims of their own fellow-tillers of the soil, some of whom no eue can deny are equally qualified with ability and legislative experience. Consistency this, isn't it? But the "Independent Republic of Horry" refused to back the game, and we have assurance that the votera of Horry will stand by their worthy representative, Jeremiah II. Smith, a hard-working farmer whom they have trusted for twelve years in one or the other branches of the State Legislature, and who lias proven true to his ti usts. Nor is Horry alone in her ap pr?dation of this worthy citizen. The other counties of the District, when the time comes, will be found I along side of Uncle Jerry with their ballot-boxes. ! But the worst phase of the affair, after all, is tho sight of a crowd of men caucussing behind closed doors iu order to drive the people under the lash of an oath bound organization to vote for a icpresentative in Con giess; aud then calling themselves Democrats. Is this Democracy 1 If so, then bury the name and let it be forever forgotten.?Florence Messen ger. ?I ii < ? How Our Money Goes. In a speech delivered before the Bank Presidents* Association in Boston the Hon. Hilary A. Herbert, of Alabama, made a very clear statement of the finan cial disadvantages of the south. The southern farmers oatne out of the ; war in debt. They have worked hard, and lived economically, increasing their cottoo crop from 2.000,000, bales in j 1866 to 9,000,000 bales in 1831. Their products have sold for an immense sum in the aggregate, but what has be come of the money? I Mr. Herbert answers this question in his speech. Federal taxation takes annu- j ally about one-third of the money *o cir-1 culation. When federal taxes go into i the treasury, and come out again tbey are principally distributed in the cast and west. These taxes, being imposed on consomption, are levied to some extent I upoD population. The expenses of the government are more '-han ?450,000, 000 a year. Ono-third of this comes from the south. In return we get some offices with their salaries; certain river and harbor appropriations, say about $8.000,000 in every two years or so. But the expenditures for the army, $22,000,000 or more, go north. The fame amount for the navy goes north; with the exception of a little money spent for coal. The pensions go north aod west. Altogether, it if safe to pay that in twenty-eight yeara the south has paid through taxation the sum of $1,400, 000,000 to the north! The pensions continue to grow. The estimate for the present year is over $147,000,000. It will soon reach $200,000,000 Then, wc should consider the millions we pay the fire .*.nd life insurance com pauies of the north, aud the other sums : going in the same direction for food, clothing, uearly everything we use, aud iuterest on borrowed money. We should also bear in miod the fact that our groat staple,cotton, has fallen from 12<>rl3 c<ut.s, twenty years ago, to G cents. Now, in view of these facts, is it any woudtr that the south is draiued of mone\? In addition to all these evils, the gov ernment luakcs its taxes still greater burdeu by its oppressive national bank ing system, and by its demonetization of silver. So the south is left prostrate at the feet of the federal tax-gatherer and the Wall street goldbug! It is not surprising that our farmers wi:h these greivances eatiug them up, are tempted to rush into a new party aud make extreme demands. Their provocation is indeed great. And yet this upheaval may bring about good results. The democracy must neces sarily remain the party of the people. It wiil champion their reforms, sift out the good from the bid, and turn the current of publie opinion into a channel leading to practical result*. All the grisvnees of the farmers will be fought by the democracy, and the remedy, when it conies win come through the democracy. The third party so far f:om accomplishing anything beneficial sim ply poatpooes its reforms, if it succeeds in temporarily hampering the demo cratic party. That's the situation ! The Electoral Vote. It IIns Grown From 60 in 1781) to 444 in the year 1892. When Washington was first ohosen President in 1789 only ten States voted, giving him 69 electoral votes. In 1888 the electoral vote was 401, of which Harrison received 223 and Cleveland 168. The electoral vote of 1892 has been increased to 444, and it will re quire 223 vote? in the Electoral College to elect. The following table exhibits the electoral votes oast for Washington io 1789, the electoral vote of 1888 and the electoral vote of 1892 : 1789. 1888, 1892.

To Prevent Moths. The most destructive of the house hold pests is the moth, and the princi pal requisite for protection against it is promptness and care. The best way to protect garments from the ravages of this busy creature is to wrap thcra in newspaper*, b?ing very careful to leave not even the slightest otack by which a miller may find its way in. This should be done as early in the season as the garments can be spared, and they should be well beaten and brushed before wrapping, in order to dislodge any eggs that may bave been already deposited on them. If they are put away late, it is safer to open them some time during July. The worm will then be hatched, if any eggs had chanced to be left io the garments, and can be easily seen and killed before it does any damage. Cedar chests are of no more use in keeping out moths than any other tight box. Gum camphor is sometimes put among woolen garments, and tobacco is also used ; bnt though these may have some effect in keeping the miller away they are not always safeguards, and the surest way is the simplest : that of wrapping the garments so that nothing can gain an entrance. To keep them out of carpets, sprinkle the floor with turpentine or benzine before laying the carpet, and with a small, flat paint brush apply freely under the surbase and in all the cracks. Benzine poured over furniture and carpets where moths are will kill them. Great care should be taken not to use the benzine near a flame of any kind, and there should be no flame or fire io the room until the fumes have passed away.?From ''Household Pests," in Dcmorets's Family Magazine for Jnly. Skins as Legal Tender. ?. E. Anderson of Arkansas asks: "Were coon skins ever used as money io the United States? If so, where, and were they a legal tender? ANSWER The following act of the legislature of Franklin (now Tennessee) will answer fully the questions whiob Mr. Anderson asks: "Be it enaoted by the General Apsem bly of the State of Franklin, and it is hereby enaoted by the authority of the same: That from the first day of January, 1789, the salaries of the officers of the commonwealth be as follows-: His excellency, the Governor per an num. 1,000 deer skins. His H<?nor, the Chief Justice, per an num, 500 deer skins. Tho Secretary of his Excellency, the Governor, per annum. 500 raccoon skins. Tho Treasurer of the State 450 rac coon skins.

The life aud character of Christopher Columbus, who did not discover Ameri ca, is better known now than ever be fore. He was a very different character from the ideal portraiture of the old books. Several works concerning him have reoently appeared, and many interesting and edifying articles in the magasines have been written about him. One of the articles contributed is by the great Spanish orator Emilio Caste lar. He gives a picture of the great admiral, who was also a pirate, which may bo true to life, or it may be a work of the imagination in part. It is interesting whether life-like or fanci ful. As this country is to celebrate the alleged discovery of America in 1492?four hundred years ago?by the "great Christopbo Columbo," as we think the name is given in Mark Twain's inimitable ma Bterpiece, "The Innocents Abroad," we copy the picture as drawn by the deft hand of the elo quent Spaniard in the Century : "Columbus was of powerful frame and large build ; of majestic bearing and dignified in gesture ; on the whole, well formed; of middle height, inclining to tallness ; his arms sinewy and bronz ed like wave beatea oars ; his nerves high-strung and sensitive, quickly responsive to all emotions ; his neck large and his shoulders broad ; his face rather long and his nose aquline ; his complexion fair, even inclining to redness, aud somewhat disfigured by freckles ; his g-.ze piercing and his eye clear ; his brow high and calm, fur rowed with the deep working of thought. In the life written by his son Ferdinand we are told that Columbus not only sketched most marvclouOy, but was so skillful as a penman that he was able to oarn a living by engrossing ai At the rally of conservatives at Ab beville, VV.

Families were divided by Candidate Tillman, now he has set them to fighting. When Ben Terrell was lscturing in South Carolina he declared that he was a democrat, and that he would always j be a democrat. Ben even declared that a man who professed to be a democrat that would not abide by the action of a democratic convention, even when it. required tbe placing of his individual opinions in abeyance, was no good dem ocrat. Now Ben is one of the busiest of the Third partyitcs, and is seeking to defeat tbe democracy with his new party,?Exchange.
