Rash CnnclIIsini1s.

Il don't believe Blank is guilty"
remarked a gentleman few days ago
in speading of certain noted crimi-
nal who was convicted several months
ago of murder.
"Why do you think SOP" he was
asked. You have expressed decided,
positive opinion and you should be
able to give some reason for your be-
lief. Do you know anything of the
circumstances of the killing? Are
you familiar with the evidence that
was brought out at the trial?
"No," was the frank but rash and
injudicious reply, II don't know any
thing whatever about the case but I
never will believe that he ought to
have been convicted. I can't say why
but I believe he is innocent" This
is no immaginary conversation, and
it's bare recital should reveal the NOR
al intended to be taught by it. 81
can't say why but I believe he is in
nocent.' Miserable twaddle. What
is such an opinion worth? 1t is not
worth the breath expended in giving
it expression!

Whence Come the Flies.

From where do all the flies come
The question is often asked and sci
dom receives as satisfactory an an
swer as has been given by contem-
porary:
The common fly lays more than
150 eggs, and the time from egglay-
ing to maturity is only about two
weeks. Most Of Us have studied ge-
ometrical progression. Here we see
it illustrated. Suppose one fly COM
mences to multiply and replenish the
earth" about J@ne l. June Is, if all
lived, would give $50. Suppose sew
enty-fve of these are females, July l
would give US, supposing no cruel
wasp or other untoward circumstan-
ces to interfere, 1880 flies. Suppose
5,625 of these are females, we might
have July 18th, S43,720 flies. For fear
of bad dreams we will not calculate

Ought the Public to Pay for 1t.

1t is the practice of the boards Of
county commissioners of a number OF
the counties IN this State, including
our own, of employing legal advisers
at stated salaries with occasional
charges for extra services and at the
expense of the several counties Great
ing such additional officers.
What earthly right have county
commissioners to employ legal advis'
ers at the expense of the taxpayers
any more than the various sheritts
clerks of court, school commissioners
and other county officers of the State
have to employ and pay such adviser:
in the same manner?
Why should such difference be al
lowed between one set of officials anc
the others, all of whom receive sala
ries for their services, and upon none
of whom is the Office imposed?-uar

WEDNESDAY, JULY II, 1889.
INTER.COUNTY INSTITUTE.

For three years Clarendon county
has had a teachers institute, but so
far this year we have not heard a
word about one. Sumter and Claren-
don united the last two years, but we
have not heard word this year
about the Sumter folks having an in-
stitute. What is the matter? These
institutes were source OF pleasure
and profit, and it was generally con-
ceded that the money was we'll spent.
It was understood, we thought, that
the institute would be held in Sumter
this year, and that an effort would be
made to get other adjoining counties
to unite. We ere sorry to see that
no steps have been taken this year to-
wards holding an lnter-county III
stitute.

News from Oakland.

OAKLAND, July 13.-Since the re-
cent rains the crops have grown very
much. In some places the cotton
crop was grassy, but with the last
week of fine weather the farmers have
their crops in favorable condition.
Mrs. D. E. Hodge and Mr.. S. J. Nc
Faddin have the finest crops in this
section. Their corn crop is very fine.
They have some corn that will make
at least sixty bushels to the acre.
The Baptist and Methodist Sunday
schools united and had picnic at the
residence of Mrs. S. NJ. Hary;n, Fri
day, the 18th inst.
The Baptist church here is under
going repairs.
A Slight shock of earthquake was
felt here last night at $50 o'clock

companied by money received from
the sale of the crop now growing,
and that the use of the substitute for
jute bagglng this year will be deter
mined by the amount manufactured.
There are no signs anywhere of weak
ening.' The farmers are thoroughly
aroused, and upon no question have
they displayed more thorough de-
termination to succeed. TO make
it's general adoption success how
ever, as Gen. Stackhouse says, we
must act in harmony with the other
/ Cotton States.
"It has been claimed that it would
be cheaper for the farmers to use
iute bagging this year. They are
not lighting, however, for the crop of
1889 alone, but for tine crops of next
year and the next and the next. Gen.
Stackhouse says that the cotton bag
ging will be several cents per yard
higher than the jute bagging, under
Alliance pressure, aod that if the
manufacturers and exchanges shall
not make AN equitable adjustment of
tare, the farmers will have to sustain
u further loss of seventy cents per
bale on cotton packed in cotton bag
ging. The difference would be in
considerable, in any event, but Mr..
Livingstone is confident that they
will not lose cent by the use of the
cotton bagging. The question of an
equitable allowance of tare on the
Tighter covering, he says, has been
satisfactorily adjusted with New Or
Ileans, New York, and Liverpool ex-
changes, and if the farmers will main
tain their position, all the concessions
that they can reasonably demand will
be granted in the end.
"The Alliance deserves to be con.
graduated for the determination
with which it has gone into this fight
It is not question of cotton or jute
bagging, but question of whether
the farmers of the Cotton States shall
remain dependent upon a monopoly
which has shown so little regard fol
their rights and interests"

HOW TO WIN SUCCESS

~ OuE pSOSlS mCoo ASoH e0GAL SJSS
open, and ever be on the alert to
stturn an honest penny" As people
we are too wasteful, too negligent OF
the little things, Ithas been said that
q Connecticut Yankee would get rich
on whst a South Carolinisn wastes
and throws away on his plantation,
and we are not sure but there is good
foundation for the assertion. AL
though our Southern people are not
systematic enough, yet we 'get along
;tolerably well, snake ends meet, .
and possibly may get ':in easy circum-
stances, in spite of our careless ways,
thanks to our soil and climate. But
we want to see our people improving
year by year; their farms becoming
more productive and valuable;
the buildings more comfortable
and convenient; the mortgages
ON their property removed; and
their surroundings such, that all may
be said to be sin easy circumstances.
On our farms we ought to raise our
horses and mules. They can be
raised at nominal cost, and in such
8 manner that we viii feel as if they
have cost us scarcely anything. A
good cow ought to furnish an abun-
dant supply Of milk and butter. Our
meat and bread and molasses ought
vall in-ha rsisea on Ashe farnsS L
should be an unheard of thing to
have to buy corn or oats or hay OF
pease. Every year our land should
be more valuable than it was the pre-
ceding year. We should understand
the nature OF our soil, what kind OF
crops it viii naturally produce best,
and what kind of fertilizers it is best
tosapply for certain crops to produce
best results We should have it 80
arranged that in rainy weather, or
bad weather, when it is not best or
practicable to work in the fields, our
hands can be pro6tably employed in
some kind of indoor work. We
should endeavor to free our lands of
stumps, to reclaim waste and sban-
aoned parts, and to supply ourselves
with the best and Aost improved la
bor-saving tools and machinery. In
short, we should endeayor to work
our farms in business-iike manner,
attentive to all the details, with the
high purpose in view of getting the
greatest possible good as result Of
our labors and attention.
The farmer who will thus go at his
work will succeed. He will not in
his tastes and habits be extravagant;
and beyond the peradventure of a
doubt be will shortly become not on
ly 'in easy circumstances" but in af-
fluent circumstances. Any man en-
dowed with the elementary principles
of business, and possessed of &
proper amount Of push, vim, energy,
viii succeed.
But for man to succeed in any
business he has to avork;, WORK, WORK.
That is the key note. He cannot
take too much of life's pleasures. He
must not expect to keep bis hands
encased in kid gloves, OF to spend
large part Of his time fishing, or to
loaf on the street corner, gossiping
OF talking politics. For all these
pleasures and luxuries he must pay.
Man is commanded to work, and in
no other honorable way can he make
a success Of life.
