The pensloners of the United
States on account Of the war for the
Union number 415, 1888. The amount
paid out in pensions since 1861 is
about 81 ,0O0,00O,000, and the cost
of disbursing the fund excseds 49,
100000 per year. During the TWEEN
ty-four years comprised in the terms
of Lincoln, Grant, Johnson, Hayes,
Garfield and Arthur the special
pension acts approved by Presi-
dents number 2,001, while during
the first three years of the present
Administration no less than 1859
such bills were signed by Cleveland.
The additions to the pension roll
during the last fiscal year were Co.
252 names. Not only has the lib
erality of the Democratic admins

of the pensions been greater than
that gifts Republican predecessors.

| Hazel Green Herald I'm speech
at Erlanger, KY, one day last week
Speaker Carlisle, than whom the
| United States does not contain a
greater or purer statesmen, among
other good things, enlightened
some fifteen thousand people upon
the tariff problem. He said the
Democratic party was now a hun
bred years old, and would live as
long as the Union existed. The
Democratic party is not now nor
never has been a free trade party,
because that would revive the sys-
tenn o. direct taxation. one that he
loathed, and onetthat' would work
great hardships on the people.
"Yet / say to you that the Republic
can party by their platform, if car
ried out, will make direct taxation
necessary; for they not only pro-
pose to wipe out The internal reve.
nue. tax, but propose to make the
duty on imported goods so high as
to shut them out entirely, thereby
getting no revenue for the running
of the Government. You can't fail
to understand the illustration. The
tax on wooden goods is SO per cent,
or $50 on the hundred. Go to a
store and buy a hundred dollars
worth of these goods, and let the
tax-gatherer say to you after you
had paid for the goods and got your
receipt, Here, my friend, you will
have to give me $50 before you can
take those goods away do you
doubt that you have 10 pay this ex-
tr duty2 If you do you are badly
mistaken; but how soon you wonld
revolt if it was collected as a direct
tax. 1t is astonishing TO me that
the people of this country can
stand this thing without a kick.
The accumulating surplus caused
almost panic last summer when
all the three per cent. bonds that
were redeemable had been redeem
ed, and no more money could get
out to ease the money market.
President Cleveland, an honest,
faithful man that he is, saw the cri-
sis and knew the remedy and gave
it in his message. Grover Cleye-
land is man who is known to be
always looking out for the best in
terest of the people of this country,
and would advocate no measure
not tor their good There are great
combinations arrayei against us,
but right now, as of old, we'll tri-
umph."

Some of the Reasons
Why Democrats of Lawrence
County Should Not Vote for
Burchett.

Because few years ago Burchett
preferred 70 vote Tor Bluegrass
niger rather than Big SanGy
white man for Register of the
Land Office. Cause why;-Nigger
was a Radical; Big Sandy man
was tainted with Democracy.
Because Burchett is so plejudiced
that he would not vote for his OPP
ponent Wallace three years ago be-
cause Wallace was a Democrat.
Wallace stepped up Immediately
after he so refused and voted for
him.
Because Burchett would not vote
Tor the reelection of the Democrat
ic members of the Board of Educa-
ton of Louisa, with whom he had
been serving the year previous,
Because he would under no cir
cumstances vote for a Democrat,
with or without opposition.
Because he is willing to go around
oyer the country and try to catch
the votes of mechanics by pretend
ing that he is shoemaker, when in
fact he never made pair of shoes
in his life.
Because he would not vote for
Hon. John NJ. Rice, his next door
neighbor, for Judge, when he had
no opposition. Cause why he
was a Democrat.
Because he belongs to a party
that has been and is now by false
pretenses, false issues and false
doctrines trying to deceive the peo-
pile on the tariff question.

Only Six Months for q Hefnos$ Crime.

Only Six Months for 8 NefncsS Crime.
". II. Renbert, white, and Becky FrIer-
son, colo-ed, were convicted last week in
Sumter, of living in open adultery and each
was sent to the penitentiary for six months.
We are informed that onlys few years ago
Rembert married beautiful seung girl,
and after living with her only short while,
.took up with" or "went back to" a black
negress Of rather repulsive charms, and vast
ed his living on her, going so far even,
in his immoral degradation, as to give
her his wife's jewelry. His wife ap-
peared n the court house as witness
against hir. And yet for all this Judge
Aldrich. according to his idea Of night
and jusfce(?), saw st to send each Of them
to the peniteasiary only six months! We
cannot see the justice in sending poor
ignorant negro woman, the tool Of this
mans accursed blacS-heartedness, six
months to the penitentiary while white
man of intelligence, perjurer Of his mari
tai VOWS, is sent for only the same time.
Ten years-a life sentence have
been too short for him.

The Haynsworth Murder Trial.

The main interest of the Sumter court
last week centered in the case Of the State
against Walter ]. Hardy and Peyton G.
Bowman for the murder Of Trial Justice
Haynsworth last December. All parties be-
ing ready for trial, Wednesday was set for
the day of trial. Wednesday it Was found
that the jury panel was not full, 50 the case
was postponed till Thursday. Out Of thir-
ty-six jurors, Thursday, only nine were Sc
leeted. another adjournment till Friday,
that twenty add,tionalju might be added
to the panel, was made, when :1e three re-
naming jurors were selected. The follow
ing then constituted the jury: Harry Ryt-
tenburg, foreman, A. 4. Sanders, D. NJ.
Richardson, Geo. F. Epperson, c. L. With

ter, for the defense Examining witnesses
continued Friday and Saturday, till o clock
Saturday night. Eight hours was then al
lowed for argument, four fer the State and
four for the defense. Each OF the FIVE dis
singuished lawyers spoke, and the argument
Of each is said TO have been a mastery ef-
fort. Just before 12 o'clock Saturday night,
Gen. Earle directed the attention of the
Judge to the tact that the Sabbath was ap-
preaching. the day set apart by God for
rest, and asked that the court adjourn over
Sunday. The judge left the matter With
the Jury, who decided to go on, and the ar
guInents continued till 81 o'clock Sunday
morning. The Judge then charged the ju-
~, who, after twenty-five minutes consid,
Grafton, returned a verdict Of not 9'tslty.
Court was then adjourned to this morning.
as the judges daughter was to have been
married Monday night, and be desired to
be present. The case against Keels and

be tried or mol pressed slisweek. In either
case the result viii be same-acquittal.
The TnxEs last January foseshadowed the
exact result. when it said, ''the tr1as will
very probably be postponed to the May term

be acquitted"

against the above parties, which Will prob

The Winthrop Training School.

Attention has already been called to the
prospective examination, to be held st Man
ming, on the third day of July next, OF
young women desirous of obtaining the
beneficiary scholarship in the allowed named
Institution, to which this County is entitled,
but the importance Of thu subject warrants
us, we think, in adding something to what
has already been published concerning it.
The winthrop Training School for teach
ers was Incorporated for the purpose Of ed
ucaing and training persons desirous OF
following tho profession Of teaching. Ac-
cording to an act OF the Legislature, pub
ished in last weeks TMEs, there shall be
appointed annually from every county IN
the State, one young woman who mas not
the necessary means, TO a beneficiary schol-
arship In said school"
Here is golden opportunity for some
Young woman. not having the necessary
means, but possessing the talent end ambi-
ton to become thorough in the art OF teach
ING, to do so. Such an one can have. II sue
cessfully passing the examination, the ad-
vantage of this training school for nine
months, free Of cost, that is to say. the State
paving the expenses. The importance Of
such advantages can scarcely be oTer-estI-
mated. In ell the Departments OF brain
work as well as manual labor, it IS becom-
ing more and more the rule to employ such
persons only as have been trained IN the
particular calling or profession IN which
services are required; teaching is no eEcep-
ton to the rule, and, even now, the trained
teachers are gradually, bat surely, disp'sssc-
ing those who have not been specially
trained in their professions.
Let Us hope that the young women OF
Clarendon viii not be backward IN enter
ing the competing list for the beneficiary
scholarship; there are many ambitious,
talented, and deserving young women N
ouS county; let them come to the front.
