Is IT RIGHT ?-Twenty-eight delegates
from Charleston elected by 95 members of
a county convention chosen by / 1867 Dem
ocratic voters; eleven delegates from
Berkeley, representing less than 1000
Democratic voters.
Ten delegates from Greenville elected
by 175 members of county convention
representing 1900 Democratic voters {;
eight delegates from Laurens elected by
so members Of county convention repre-
senting more than 1000 Democratic voters.
That's not the worst of it. Eight of the
Charleston delegates have no right to seats
even on the basis ofpopulation, by the CEN
sus of 1880. Two of them belong to Green
Vile and two them to Spartanburg. The
representation in the State convention is
based on present representation in the
Legislature, and the present representa-
census of 1870, in defiance of the constitu-
ton, every rule of right and every princi-
pie of Republican form of government.
We are not only deprived Of proper rep
resentation for our Democratic voting
strength, but we have been sWindled out
of the representation we have fairly won
by increase in population.-lGreenville
News.
pag The Republican party is the only
party that ever offered as a relief from
high taxes to make them higher-this is,
the only platform that ever declared that
the tax burdel S, made necessary by war,
should be maintained and increased in
time of peace. We hear no more of pro-
lection for infant industries. When these
people tell us that no part of the protective
system is to be given up, it means that
the present black list, containing more
than four thousand articles, is to be main
tanned; that robber rates upon every
necessity of life must forever rule, and
that conditions which the Wastage of war
imposed upon our people must be accepted
as our normal state. When war was on,
we needed war taxes, and we got them.
After quarter of a century of peace, IN
Gods name let the people have peace
rates.-Senator Blackburn, in September
Forum.
na~ The failure of firm of "sardine
packers" in Maine, says the Philadelphia
Record has disclosed the fact that they
owe $1,000 for cotton seed oil, which
masquerades in the packers product as
pure olive oil, and which consumers are
| forced to swallow in order to protect ''an
infant industry" This business Of pack
ing young herring in cotton seed oil and
selling them as sardines phuile d'olive,
is fraud worthy of Yankeeland in its
earlier days, when buttonwood nutmegs
, and Eastwood hams were held to be legiti-
mate articles of merchandise down East.

Too Much Ahsorbed

One of the most amusing incidents of the
picnic party last Saturday is told in the
Yolo Democrat of a gentleman who bosses
a ranch near Woodland, that before leav-
ing in his buggy for the picnic grounds.
some fellow bent upon mischief and fun,
took of the wheels and reversed them,
putting the larger ones in front and the
smaller ones on the rear axles. 1t seems
that the young fellow was so much ab-
sorbed with the idea of spending the dav
out in the lovliness of the shady grove,
listening to the chatter of the little birds
and the merry laughter OF his best girls
pupils, in whose childish amusements he
anticipated delightful pleasure, that he
did not notice the condition of his vehicle
or realize lis very graceful movements. He
was thinking of nobler things" So COM
pletely absorbed and happy was he with
his most intelligent company, that he
is not yet aware of the joke played upon
him and firmly believes he had a glorious
time. OF course he had.
