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

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

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

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

Family Magazine for Jnly.

Coiumbus.
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
