A Power If Properly Exercised.

We call attention to an article copied
from the Anderson Inteiiycncer, on the
subject of not giving employment to those
wLo insist on voting in the interest of
those who have plundcrcd our State
The article in question is written so
plainly, so forcibly, and with such COM
prchension of the situation, that VIC must
commend it to the careful consideration
of every true South Carolinian. who
wishes to lift the State from her present
degraded position.
If we do not use all the means in our
! power 10 Ancnn, n,.,lish tie nob!e under
taking of putting to fight the vultures
and ill birds of prey which have been de-
stroying us, we fail to discharge the com
, monest duties.
AS the extract, says, under ordinary
circumstances, it is bad policy to allow
| politics to make dividing line in busi-
ness; but if cur. present circumstances
! arc not extraordinary, then, when, in the
name of all that is good, will the circum-
| stances be extraordinary
| Governor Chamberlain in his Morton
letter, boasted and regarded it MS a great
virtue in his administration, that there

| The Radical party appoints to office
and rctains in office, only those who vote
for it and sustain it. The Democrats of

they can reward their friends. But each
individual has Offices, and he would be
untrue to his political faith were ne not
to give them to those who are his friends
not only in discharging the duties Of such
offices, but in sustaing him in the posses
! sion of, his farm or factory.

The BURIAL CURE.-In 1913 ther
lived ut South Shields, England, laLoy-
ing man named Dickinson, q native of
the village of Qoniscliffe, near, Darling
ton. He was afflicted with paralysis,
which for some years had crippled his
limbs, and deprived him of the use Of the
left side of his body. One day, as he was
slowly ,'sawliug along tue street, he met
witi:s an elderly we'll dressed man, who
stated that he was a physician from
Edinburgh, and he on hearing Of Dick
inson's case, advised him to return to his
native village, and have, himself covered
up with earth, which operation would
cure him. The poor fellow, nothing

acquaintance 70 assist him in temporarii

with his spade, dug hole in the ground,
in which the patient was to lie for four
hours. Dickinson stretched himself in
the excavation, with his head only at the
outside, and soil was heaped upon him to
the depth of fwof feet. Atthe expiration
of q quarter of an hour the patient broke
out into profuse perspiration, and an
intense pain at the same time attacked
his left side loin and leg. Notwithstand-
ing the agony he endured, he remained
thus til the expiration of the allotted
time. The man who buried him, seeing

ApvERT1sING MAJoR, GENERALS
The last Ridiculous pretense set up by the
Republican press to shield their party
against the wrath to come, is the asser-
ton that tthe leading generals of the
Union"' are all ON the side of Grantism.
And this while Custer still lies unavenged
in the premature grave to which Grantism
sent him. the truth is, the great naiori-
y.ofIth6 fighting GENERALS were aid are
Democrats. while the great majority of
the Republican generals belong to the
same category with a certain Major
General who WAS captured early in the
war, together with thirty mules. When
the news was brought to Mr. Lincoln he
looked muck depressed for moment,

The regular meeting Of the Cook County
Greenbach Club was held at their new hall,
southeast corner OF Monroe and Clark streets,
on Friday evening. 3lst ult., A. q. Cameron
presiding, and DIR. J. Taylor, secretary.
| The minutes OF the previous meeting hay
ing been read, the chairman introduced Sgd
ney Myers, esq, manager of the Merchants
Farmers and Mechanics bank Chicago who
made forcible and eloquent address on the
currency question. Mr.. Myers commenced
by reviewing the fundamental principles of
money and currency. He then followed up
the history Of money from its introduction
INTO civilization uD to the present time. He
elucIdated the Rank of Venice system, by ex-
planning the credit upon which it was based,
and the manner in which that credit was es-
tablshed. He then went into the English
system and gave very full explanation of
the English consal and the operations Of the
and simple illustration showed the advan-
tages that specie resumption would be to the
great money centres Of the world The
speaker said there were four points winch he
would urge IN favor of staple currency. In
the first place every man in this country
should have a currency that when be gives it
out he should receive an equivalent for il.
Tins would give US currency as good as
any other country, and by fixing the rate Of
interest on the bond we can make the pre-
MUM as high or low as We please. In the
second place the interest on the bond should
be such As to make it on a par with gold.
In the third place the currency department
should be distinct and separate from the rev
enue department, and in the fourth place
this system should not he subject to sudden
or partizan legislation by Congress
Mr.. Myers proceeded to show that the
British Bank Ring and their agents in this
country, are the only ones who are in favor
Of the present system and the resumption of
specie payments
As an illustration of how the moneyed
power Influenced legislation in this country,
he said that on certain occasion a deputa-
ton Of % men representing 1908, 900, 900, went
to Washington and had law passed in their
interests, while millions Of the producing
classes we've denied legislation to protect
them. In referring to the improvements in
mechanics within the last fifty years, the
speaker said he believed our monetary sys-
TEN was as susceptible OF improvement in
the same manner the system Of mechan-
les.
Mr.. Myers spok for nearly two hours aud
made one Of the most eloquent, argumenta-
tive, lucid and forcible speeches that has been
made by any speaker on the subject. A reso-
luton To appoint committee OF three for
the city at large, to be added to the Central
Committee, was adopted, and the meet

never done any work in their lives, but
had accumulated their money by robbing
the people Of the interest on their (the rich

said, "We1l stop that" Whereto Hooton

tors But we cant do it through the old

have proven false to the interest Of the

publican party to help them escape from
this extortion, but without success. They
had asked assistance from the Democrats,
but unsuccessfully, and the only slterua-
tive was to organize q new party to protect
