BUTLERB TURN NEXT.

Ruff Shoemaker thinks that if

that Butler ought to have a few
gobs Of mud thrown at him along

newspaper scavenger does not tell

Butler. He is enough Of . can
didate, and is dangerous enough in
this campaign, to call for a hurt Of
that kind. People would readily
believe such things on Ben Butler.
His advance manhood has so much
of handsomeness and grace and
courtesy that people know that
when he was young he must have
been irresistible. Anti-monopolist
as Ben. Butler now is there can be
no doubt but that be could have.
when young, monopolized to him
self pretty much all the tender
sentiments that he had a mind to.
Here is chance for the campaign
liar. Butler is politically danger

fired at him at the earliest possible

PUBLISH ALL COUNTY PRO
CEEDINGS.

When . bill was passed by the
lat Legislature compelling all
Baards of County Commissioners
to publish an itemized bill Of their
expenditures it was met with strong
objections by members of various
Boards throughout the State. 1t
was . good bill, however, and it
passed. It works well, and the
taxpayers are satisfied with it.
Relative to the publication of the
county Board in the newspapers
the Foot Hill Tidings says:
In Alpine county they have only
&c children on the school census
roll and in the county one male
and four female teachers are en-
ployed. In 1882 the county polled
only SO votes for governor. Alpine
county has good newspaper (the
Argus, conducted by T. P. Larkin,
formerly Of this place. and the su-
pervisors of that little county pub
lish their proceedings, and do not
have . clerk rnnning around in diff
ferent precincts, with hammer
and a paper of tacks in his hands,
sticking up manuscript or boards,
trees and dead walls. Alpine
county will grow. People at dis
lance will read that Alpine's su-
pervisors are working in daylight
and are not covering things up, and
therefore those people at distance
will not be afraid to 60 into Alpine
and take taxable property
along with themselves, or they will
not fear to 60 there and develop re-
sources into taxable property. The |
dark counties are those that PEG

Cheap Quinine by Free-Trade.

The Philadelphia Record reports
that the combination Of American
and European manufacturers of quln-
inc which has heretofore controlled the
entire market of the world, has gone
to pieces. and that there has been a
great reduction in the price Of the
drug. A prominent wholesale drug
dealer in Philadelphia says that the
effect of the tumble will be to re
duce the price of pills about 10 or Is
cents per dozen" About the lst Of
January European quinine was quoted
at 81 65 per ounce and American
quinine at $l85 per ounce. During
the first three days Of last week lG,-
600 ounces were sold in New York

knsWssomething Of the Heath, called
on him and learned the facts Of the
case. The girl was bitten exactly
nine months ago by dog which show
ed every symptom of hydrophobia'
and both the girl and her parents
we're in constant dread that she might
at any time be taken with the terrible
malady, more especially at some
specified period after having been
bitten-nine days, weeks or months.
She was taken sick about week ago
and as she had been particularly fear,
ing this time, che at once concluded
that her trouble was that awful mala-
dy hydrophobia. She grew rapidly
worse and at the sight Of wafer was
thrown into the moet terrible convul-
sions. She would ask for water, and
when brought to her would grasp the
tumble, look at the water, then dash
it from her and fall back in spasms.
DR.. Wilcox saw the girl and endeav-
ored to give her some soothing dose,
which she tried to swallow, but failed
her throat being as dry as parchment.
She fingered in this terrible condition,
suffering great agony, until Friday
afternoon when she became uncon'
scious and shortly afterwards died.
The girl in her suffering was some
times very much excited, but offered
no personal injury to any one. The
dog that bit her had been running
loose, exhibing all the rabid symp
toms of hydrophobia. This is tue
first case of the kind occurring in Au'
gusta for FIVE years and clear case
of hydrophobia. The girl was fol
several days without water and must
have suffered excruciating agony
She was an intelligent young woman
and her parents are sensible and up

Sentimental Suicide.

A paragraph in the Columbia Yco-
man states that "Mr. Tillman en-
.dorses Senator Butler'a opposition to
the Blair Educational Bill, and may
speak, as he will vote. against At.
Whenever we learn authoritatively
that Col. Tilllnan is opposed to this
bill, we will furnish some very inter-

Why 1t Is So.

There seems to be complaint Of
short rations in certain sections of the
State. This should surprise no one.
1t is obliged to be the case when we
raise very little else than cotton.
Cotton and the Lien Law are running
our State. We make this prediction:
That .iust so long as the Lien Loac
remains on our statute books, just 80
long mN there be scarcity Of prori-
sions n, the State. Repeal amd
are yiU hare an abundance Of corn,
arheat, oats and meat"
There is no money for the farmer
at the present price Of cotton, and in
order to make farming pay, supplies
for both man and beast must be raised
at home. To repeal the Lien Law to
60 into effect Immediately would be
hard on numbers Of farmers, and
time should be allowed them to get
themselves in better ccnditiog' to
meet the great change. The Houae
Of Representatives had the backbone
to repeal the law last winter but the
Senate backed down and refused to
eustain the House. Members Of the
Legislature claim that if you repeal
the Lien Law, yon take away from
the farmer his basis of credit. This
is done to catch the popular vote, no
doubt. We take the position that no
man can show that this law is Of any
benefit to the farmers of the State.
the people Of Abbeville county should
ascertain the sentiments Of every
candidate for legislative honors, be.
fore casting their votes for any OF
them. Its decidedly to the interest Of
the farmer to have this law repealed
and he will be working against his
own interest if he votes for men who
will not work for i's repeal.-,Sahsdo

In Mohammedan lands, where the

Woman's s condition is something bet

do we find woman elevated to her

necessary that women should be lead

pSophetess and Judge Of Israel, was
the leader of Gods people against
their enemies, while the timid Barak
would not go forth to battle without
her. Jael, woman OF 1srael, killed
Sisera, and the honor Of the victory
upon that occasion was given to a
woman. Lydia is named as leading
the way in believing the gospel, and,
in obedience to Christ, was the first
baptized at Philippi, and the first one
in that heather city to invite the
apostles into her house. 1t was q
woman that led the inhabitants ol

Then every note OF bird-born sound.
That clown of all the feathered tribe,
The catbird, macks with merry ;ibe
An echo of full-voiced rebound.
Through half closed lashes' shading
mist,
A slanting stair the sunlight's rays,
The far-off hills swim in haze
OF purple, gold and amethyst.
Beneath the SUMS alchemic test,
Dull, dust like notes to life arise.

Float on the topaz air at rest.
Unto their work the mowers lean,
hear the swish of swinging scythes,
Before whose sweep the tall grass
writhes.
And falls behind in waves of gree.:.
And, giving voice to joyous verse,
Pitched to the wbetstone's treble ring,
To me are borne the airs they sing
As though forgot the primal curse.
Tne patient oxen bow and strain
To storm. Drowned barns from meadow
fields,
With harvest which the summer yields
High piled upon the creaking vain.
I.oosed from the school-houee near the
town,
A group of children laugh and jest,
The buttercup's chin shadow test,
And blow the dandelion's down.
Adown the West the sun sinks low,
As grows the twilight comes hush,
Save where with vesper chant the
thrush
Sings in the sunsets afterglow.
