TrOtting Meeting.

First Day OF the Terre Haute
Trotting Meeting.
TERRE HAUTE, Ind. Oct. 7-Despite
the fact that there had been a week of
hard rain, the track of the Terre Haute
Trotting association, while in good
shape, was fully three seconds slow. 1t
improved, however, with every hours
work, and by tomorrow will be in con-
dition to maintain its reputation as the
fastest circular track in the world In
the attendance to-day, both by horses
and visitors, nearly every state IN the
Union was represented. The. talk of
the honr is what will Nelson do? His
owner claims that 200 will be the mark
placed opposite his name after Thurs
day. HOrSemen who saw his miles at
Kankakee and Rushville believe him to
be nearer Oh edge now and that those
miles will be beaten. The great pole
team, Belle Hamlin and Justlna, driven
by their breeder and owner, the veteran
&. j. Hamlin, will Friday be sent
against the pole team record of 2:15L,
now held by them. The attendance
was the largest ever accredited to first
day. The card consisted of the Citi-
zenS' Guarantee stake. Wabash stake

ley, Chicago, and d. z. Cox, Terre
Haute. But three horses took the word
in the 2:22 trot, McDoel having the
speed of the party, and winning as he
pleased. Walter b made game fight

off the cars from Wichita, Kan.

Mr.. Harvey Wilson left last Tuesday for AL

Mr. B. NJ. Cheutham left for Anderson eoun-

he will make longer stay next time.

Mr.. Doolittle, Of Augusta, was here last

Mr. J. II. Thomus with his daughters. Miss

The young gentleman who went to Augusta
not long ago disappointed some of his friends.
They expected him to bring young lady

hapS they will not be disappointed when the

"The Louisiana State Lottery is bigger than
the State and stronger than Governor Ntcli-
OILS. This thing is a disgrace TO the South
augusta Chronicle.
The Press and Banner agrees with that sent.
ment. The lottery is blot on our good
name, and should be abolished.
But we think the State of South Carolina
and the city Of Augusta each charter more
ruinous institutions than the lottery. For o
price, the city of Augusta and the State o.
South Carolina each license the opening o.
saloons whereby the best men Of the city, and
the State, together with their families, may be
utterly ruined in estate and moral standing
Another evil, which is doing thousand-folo
more damage than either the lottery or the
bar room, Is the free and open sale of villain
Gus patent medicines. which not only robs the
patient, but actually hurries him to the grave
False and deceptive advertisements are to be
found in many newspapers, which hold ou
hope to the consumptive, to the sufferer from
bright's disease. fits, and other complaints
which every intelligent citizen knows is In
durable.
The lottery merely robs people Of theii
spare change, while deceptive patent med!-
clnes take from our people The money to
buy medicines which destroy their digestive
powers, that in fact is needed to buy nourlsh
Ing food.
To those who suffer from consumption, we
would say that we have seen the statement In
the newspapers that the doctors of Paris pre-
scribe cod liver oil in not more than
one case in sixteen. All the cod liver
emulsIons are in our opinion delusive and ex'
pensive. In one spoonful of good butter,
there is more nourlshment than there is in a
dose of cod liver oil, or any OF the emulslons
of which 1t is part.
The greatest outrage which is being pcrpe-
trated on the American public to-day is the
unlimited sale Of Nalcnt medicines.
The Louisiana L, terry is as nothing when
compared to the work Of hundred thousand
bar rooms and the Wholesale distribution OF
patent medicines.

Vociferating for the Primary.

The "Straightout Democrats" In council last
week in Columbia demanded primary cleo.
tions for delegates to the State Nominating
Convention.
The demand falls short just one step. 1t
should have been for direct vote by primary
for Governor That Is the rule which governs
at the General Election, and is the only fair
way by which the primaries can be governed.
or course some OF the low-country counties
will claim that their citizeus are entitled to
more power than this system would give
them.
If they should be entitled to more pow
er in the primary than in the General Elec-
ton, then the General Election law should
conform to the present plan OF giving low
country voter from two to four times the
voting strength OF an up-country Democrat.
Let it not be forgotten that the same rule
should apply to the primary that govern
General Election.
AS the Executive Committee found 1t i'm
practicable to give US the primary at the be.
ginning of the campaign, and as the low
country may be able to discern the fact that
the primaries may be possibility in the iu-
ture, the primary for The election Of delegates 10
The State Nominating Convention Is now de-
manded, but that is not the primary which
the people want, and we hope that neither
faction of the Democratic party will be salts
fed with that sort of primary.
The low-country has had the advantage OF
us long enough, and 1t is time to give the
mountaineers fair play.

On High Ground.

At the quarterly meeting OF the Abbeville
County Alliance that body assumed high
ground In resembling the existing boycott
against certain newspapers, and In making
unmistakable declarations encouraging the
brethren to subscribe for as many newspapers
of their own choice, as their means would al
low. They recognize the value Of newspapers
as an educator, and believe that In knowledge
there Is power.
This action last Friday will commend the
Alliance to the favorable opinion Of the peo'
ple of AbbeviIle county, and will do much to
bring about harmony and good feeling among
all the people.
The Alliance may sometimes swing little
out of plumb, but she will finally do the
right and by giving "equal rights to all, and
special privileges to nome" will rise to the
highest positions among the organizations OF
the country.
They have done themselves and the county
honor by passing the resolutions unanimous
Iy, while they propose to stand or fall on the
merits of their order, fearing nobody, asking
no favors of anybody, and yielding perfect
freedom of thought, speech and action 10 eV'
erybody.
Standing on this high ground, Alliancemen
in every part Of hesitate may well follow the
independent, wise and sagacous course OF the
Abbeville Alliance in proclaiming for educa'
ton, newspapers. free speech, and untram'
ueled action for its members.

We Must Not Bolt.

AS will be seen, the Charleston Ne,cs and
Courier holds out a threat, that the straight
outs" will split the party, If the August Con-
vention does not order primary election for
delegates to the Nominating Convention.
The fact is, when the State Convention
meets, 1t will, as 1t has done in the past, take
such action as 1t may deem best. The State
Con ventions in the past have regularly de-
MED the primary, and no splitting was done,
and there should be no splitting now, even II
the primary is denied in August.
Our respected COD ptemporary will, after the
18th OF August have TO cease to irritate the
Tillmanites by speaking of the anti.Tillman-
ties as "Straightout Democrats" The August
Convent ton will heal whatever irregularity
there is, and the edicts OF that Convention
will be the work of the regular orthodox De-
mocracy, and those who fail to fall into line
with that body will make themselves liable
TO the charge of being boilers or independ-
ents.
There is neither wisdom nor policy in shut
ting our eyes TO the facts as they exist The
next Convention is called In the regular way,
and it will be the Democratic party In Con-
vention. If that Con vention acts contrary to
the will of the minority, 1t Is their misfor.
tune, apd as true Democrats they must sub
NIT to the will OF the majority.
Under no circumstances should we allow
our feelings to ALLEVIATE friends and neighbors,
nor should we allow our preJudices TO sepa-
rate US from the Democratic party. We have
nothing to hope for outside Of the only party
that has given us good and honest govern
ment-peace and good will among men.
