Congressman Burrows expresses his
financial views in candid aud snfe man.
ncr. As he probably knows nothing
about finance, he does himself credit by
not attempting it, and is cxcusabc for
judging others by his own standard
Taken all together we do not know that
he is far wrong when lie says: "Today
the best thing that could happen to the
financial interest and the business inter.
csts would be for Congress to pass law
at its very next session to punish with
death any member of Congress thu
would make speech on finance for the
next twenty years"

A SERIOUS RENCoNTRE.-NIr. Rich
ard Gregory and Mr.. Elijah (Ring-
Eyed) Watson were returning from
Johnston's, on the Charlotte, Columbia
and Augusta Railroad, on Thursday last,
to the residence of the former, in this
county, when a quarrel ensued and they
got out of the buggy, which both were
riding in. Watson drew his knife and
inflicted several severe wounds on Greg
ory, on his face, side and arms. Gregory
drew his pistol and fired, hitting Watson
in the arm. They then settled their DIFF
ficulties, apparently, and again entered
the buggy and continued their way, and j.,
after going q short distance, the Quarrel
was renewed, the parties getting out Of
the buggy, when Mr.. Gregory, to avoid
another alteration, drove Off and left
Watson and went to n neighbours for the
purpose of having his wounds dressed.
While they were being dressed Watson
suddenly entered the house with knife in
hand. Mr.. Gregory tried to close the
door to prevent his entering the room in
which he was in, but failed, and had to
escape out of the rear door, closely pnr-
sued by Watson. They ran around the
house several times, when Gregory made
for his buggy, which was at the gate,
and succeeded in getting his pistol, and
fired just in time to save himself from
Watson's knife, the ball striking him in
the side, inlicting an ugly wound.
Watson then far, and Gregory re-entercd
the house and seized gun and fired at
Watson, who entered the bushes near by,
but missed his mark. The wounds are
not thought to be very fatal, but very
painful. 1t is said both were drinking

All of The Southern States ought to
combine in the passage Of law prevent
Ing speculation in futures in cotton. Of
course this would only prohibit citizens
of the States enacting such laws from
participating in this gambling operation,
but 1t would save TO this section large
am. mt of money every year. In the
first place these speculations in futures to
very large extent control the price of
cotton, greatly to the detriment of the
farmer, whose crop is bought aud cold
before it is made. and tho price is there
by regulated in measure by other
causes than supply and demand. In ad.
dition to this reason for the prohibition
may also be mentioned the fact that the
Southern men who go into this branch Of
speculation are as class the losers.
Northern capital combines and frcoucnt.
ly causes the forfeiture of contracts, en-.
failing heavy losses upon those who have
dealings with them. 1t is asserted, by

WELL SAID.-Mr. Henry c. Lodge

WE'LL SAID.-Mr. Henry G. Lodge,
Of Massachusetts,, uttered the following
patriotic sentiments to e. meeting in
Boston, which shows that the doctrine Of
states rights is not go dead in the Day
o;ato as the i.adicals imagine. lie said:
The Union was never in greater peril
than In 1919, when New England threat
encd secession unless the Administration
and ruling party yielded % her demands.
With characteristic caution, she stayed
her uplifted hand and waited little
longer, but no one then doubted either
the meaning or the danger of her atti-
tude. Jf the blow had fallen the Union
would have been dashed in pieces, with.
out hope OF recovery. States rights be-
long to no party and to no State They
are as universal as nationality, and that
| they are 80 Is proof Of their value. But
they go much deeper than their name
implies. They involve II principle as old
as the race itself. This principle was
born in the forests of Germany, is re-
corded IN the pages Of Tacitus, andcame
with the wild Teutonic tribes across the
Channel to britain moro than thousand
years ago. 1t il the great Anglo Saxon
principle of local self-government, and
| ~ tiO 7"'O- Euitid vi OuI llDcTllcS NOW, ~
it has ever been in the past. Without it
there is no health in us. 1t should be
more jealousy watched than any other,
because the tendency in lnrgc coInmuui.
ties is always towards Capitalization.
We see illustrations Of this tendency
every day in the growing habit of both
parties TO judge every question according
to its expcdiency, and not according to
the constitutional principles, which they
as parties, are supposed to represent.
There seems to be no desire anywhere to
oppose measure, simply and solely be-
cause 1t leans more toward Capitalization
than is warranted by the Constitution
This tendency is full of peril. Our
Government is a system of checks and
balances. Destroy one element, aud the
whole fabric falls. Nationality is strong
and safe. Our most important duty is to
protect our local rights wherever they
exist, and feel rs the Colonies did when
the Boston port bill passed-that the
cause of one is the cause Of all. Two
lessons are clearly written on the page.
which record The strife between the in.
born love of local independence and the
broader spirit of nationality created b,
the Constitution. One is reverence fol-
the Constitution, the other carcfu
maintenance of the principle of States
rights.
