Mr. Editor:-No doubt yon havo beard of
tbe little rains we have had on our verdant
fields, except some cotton fields that bare
rusted, where only grass, sheep burrs and
some cracked pods are to be seen I see in
my preambulation8 a great n.any Heres that
will not glut the market aod crowd tbe mills
&nd raise tbe usual cry (lie) of over produc?
tion. We bear of the middle men making
tue most mosey out ofour cotton, but that is
a mis'aken idea, for wt find tb is season that
we are the middle men in the cotton bnsiness.
Wbj? Because the negroes fix the price of
picking and tbe exchange fixes the selling
price, yet some foiks think we are the most
independent peopleliving Ifsomegood talker
would convince me of that I am sure I would
be happy.
All our crops are better than the cotton
just cow, and we won't starve if tbe fleecy
staple goes down to 2& cent3 a day.
This ecribe enjoyed a pleasant week with
:be Srackboustrs and Thompsons, of Marion,
?.nd Covington, cf Marlborough, and surely
tba: is a farmiog country. I saw Bumble
Bte cotton, and on up to what will make
from three to four thousand rounds per sere.
Mr. FL. M. Jenkins and McCoy, at St. Charles,
save cotton tbat will make two thousand
pounis or more, and Dr. H. T. Abbott ha3
finer cotton than any I s*w or ever have seen
is aoy CDuntry The only difference I see is
:ne7 n we auch fiier patches th * n we do.
Mr. Phil Booth bas put up a nice ginnery
at Miss Sue Brown's, so has Mr Willie

good luck.

Featherstone Presents His
Facts.
He Answers the Governor's
Request That He Specify,
Three Instances of
Free Liquor.
gat _
To the Editor of the State: In my
interview which came out io the daily
papers last Saturday, I made tbe
charge that whiskey was shipped to
certain points io the State during .the
campaign by houses from which the
dispensary buys liquor. In. yester
! day's paper Governor Eilerbe calls on
me to specify.
It must be borne in mind that I
I
made no charge against any particu?
lar candidate or candidates I was
discussing the dispensary system,
and undertaking to show how it had
been and always would be used as a
political machine As proof of this I
made the above charge. \
I first made the charge in my
speech at Aiken, August 22d, in
presence of Governor Eilerbe and the
other candidates. At that time the
charge was not denied nor the proof
demanded. But now the governor
wants me to specify, which I will
proceed to do.
First. A box of whiskey (samples)
was shipped to Laurens, S. C , by
express on August 4. 1898 On the
day of the campaign meeting it was
used and handed out to such parties
as were thirsty and who belonged to
the faithful It came from a house in
Philadelphia from which the dispen?
sary buys liquors, and the box weigh?
ed 45 pounds Another box weigh?
ing 60 pounds was also received from
the same source, bot was shipped to
a different party. It is not necessary
at this time that I should give the
names of the parties to whom it was
shipped, for I have'no desire to injure
the parties in the least.
Second At Spartanburg, on the
day of the campaign meeting at that
place, I discovered thst a quantity of
the stuff was on hand and being
need ? was reliably informed that
it had been shipped there a few days
before by the representatives of cer?
tain whiskey houses, who either had
sold, or hoped to sell, their wares to
the dispensary. By whom it was
shipped I know not That it was
shipped there and used, as above
j stated, is absolutely certain.
Third. A goodly supply was on
hand the day of the campaign
meeting at Anderson and used freely.
Where it came from I am not
prepared to say. but it could hardly
have come from the local dispensary,
i for it was generally understood thai
it was closed.
I have specified time and place.
A great many of the candidates
know that what I say is true.
How the whiskey could have been
thus shipped in open violation of the
dispensary law, without somebody
being arrested and puuished, can be
very readily surmised.
That such open and flagrant viola
j tions of the law have been indulged
j in frequently no sane man can doubt.
! It is the system aud the manner in
which it is enforced (?) that I am
after-not men.
j
By the way, it has been industri?
ously circulated by some of my per?
sonal enemies, and friends of the
dispensary, that L have had whiskey
shipped to me at different times and
have frequently been on sprees
myself. At the meeting at Laurens
I denounced such reports as false,
and my enemies dared not try to fur?
nish the proof I did state at that
meeting that on one occasion, some
time last fail, I ordered for medicinal
purposes a bottle of blackberry
brandy and a bottle of rye whiskey.
These were turned over to my wife,
and some of the contents have been
used as medicine I al60 6tated that
on several occasions last year I
bought whiskey at the dispensary for
my wife's grandfather, Dr Win.
Dorsh, who was an aged man,
and 6i*ck for many months before he
j died If suca conduct on ray part is
j a crime I stand guilty.
I i further stated, and state now,
; that ? have not for years touched
! whiskey as a beverage, nor have I
! ever b^eu on sprees, and any charge
; to that effect is absolutely false, as
I can be testified to by the best people
j of Laurens. Such false charges show
;' how desperate some of the dispensary
! people are, and to what dirty things
they wi'l resort to carry their point
1 regret that it has been necessary
for :ne again tc make this statement.
Very truly,
C C. Featherstone.
THE OFFICIAL COUNT
HAS BEEN MADE.

OVER.
Columbia, Sept 6 -Tbe sub-com?
mittee appointed by tbe State executive
committee met last night at 8:30 o'clock
in the Carolina National bank building,
Chairman Wilie Jones presiding.
All the official returns were in by
yesterday at coon, and the committee
were kept busy during the afternoon
figuring up the totals.
Soon after the assembling of the
committee Joo. P. Thomas, Jr.,
announced that he waa the counsel of
Mr. L. P. Eptoo, and he asked that he
be allowed the privilege of inspecting
the official returns with the chairman
or any other member of the committee
that the chairman might suggest
There was no objection to this, and
a motion was passed unanimously to
ailow any candidate the privilege to
freely and fully inspect any of the
official returns.
Mr. Thomas stated that be only
desired to see if any clerical errors had
occurred, and if there were any he
knew the committee would correct
them
Coi. P K. Nelson appeared on
behalf of Mr. Eilerbe, the defeated
candidate from the sixth congressional
district, asked the s a we privilege, and
under the motion his request was
allowed.
The committee carefully went over
the totals, and after verifyiog the vote
from each county, the question of
declaring the result was theo brought.
Mr. Blease thought that if this sub?
committee declared .that if certain
candidates were the nominees of the
party ic would be impossible to permit
any defeated candidate the privilege of
protesting or contesting the result.
Mr. C. P Townsend announced that
be appeared as rbe attorney of Con?
gressman Norton, and thought that
the committee could declare the result,
because under the roles of the party,
ten days are allowed after the primary
for the filing of protests and contests,
and ten days have not yet expired.
The matter was fully disposed of
by the adoptson of the following res?
olution, which was offered by Commit*
teemao Stauland :
"That the result of the election be
declared on the face of the returns as
tabulated subject to any protest or
contest that may be filed within the
time prescribed by the constitution and
rules of the party."

as signed by chairman Jones, and

Storm on the Carolina and
Georgia Coast.
Savannah, Sept. 2.-While Savaa
nah suffered heavily from the cyclone
which swept over the 50 miles of coast
country Wednesday morning, the dam?
age on the coast islands and in the inte?
rior as far as tbe storm reached is prob?
ably greater.
The flooded condition of the country
renders communication difficult, and
many sections it ts entirely cut off and
no news has been received to indicate
what the conditions are.
The first new? from the Carolina sea
islands which were the scene of the
great tidal storm of 1893, in which
thousands of people perished, was re?
ceived to day. While the storm was

Tybee are hoed with wrecks of small
craft and at Bluffton and the small set
lement8 nearly all the bouses were un -
roofted any many were destroyed.

want ashore on Gaskin bank, is a to?
tal wreck to-day. The captain and

lives, oas about disappeared.
Small steamers have patrolled Cala
bogue sound all day searching for the

good deai of surprise has been felt
by officers and civilians alike at the
action of the war department in or?
dering away half of the 7th corps,
after having spent the summer here,
and all preperations made for send?
ing the troops to Cuba. While Gen.
Lee is reticent on the subject, and
as a soldier cannot speak, yet it is
known that he feels both humiliated
! and iudignant that such should be
I done after the most positive assu?
rances were given him at Washing
j ton that the corps would go to Cuba.
' In the case of the 2d Virginia, which
j has been mustered out, it is said
I that this action was taken without
j the knowledge of the Governor of Vir
I ginia, and, a9 a matter of fact, that
j the 2d desired to stay in, whiie it
I was the 4th Virginia that was most
i anxious to be mustered out
"l oan only say/' said Gen Lee to
: dav when approached on the subject,
j "that there are some matters that are
as inexplicable to me as the ordering
