with this is not in what DR.. Stokes
SAID, but in what heis reported to have
said.
He said the $40 was still in c:rcula
tlon; and the WORT that could be said
Tor 1t was that it mad no basis behind
1t; but that was no worse than must be
said for 346 million greenbacks, which.
have no basis either. flour cotempor-
ary holds that there is actual or possi-
ole loss to the government in the circu-
latlon of the greenbacks, then is his fear
OF loss IN the case Of sub-treasury notes
well founded. To hold such a view
would be sheer ignorance of political
economy as well as history-but the |
ignorance is not on DR.. Stokes side.

The Atlanta Journal publishes al
interview with Gov. Campbell, Demo.
cratic candidate for Governor in Ohio
on the situation in that State. He
says the all absorbing issue in the pres
ent campaign is the tariff. The Re
publican candidate, Maj. Mckinley,
author of the Mckinley bill, is trying
to draw attention to silver, but Mr.
Campbell is holding him down to the
tariff.
When asked what part the sub
treasury plan would have Oh the cam

reporter:
"We!l, sir, you are the first man 7

ury plan IN Ohio. The people here

one man in Ohio who will mention

a While in. No subtreasury plan dis

Why SoT ESC:iGEAGE OF
STATE lair AISE- .!!e

Governor Tillman, Secretary of State
Tindall and Mr.. J. E. Wannamaker of
the Board Of Trustees of Clemson Col
lege. have issued a leeter to the farmers
Of South Carolina nrging them to at
teno and furnish sample crops and en-
courage the Augusta Exposition as a
means Of benefit ing themselves and
advertising the State and its resources.
That is ali right and proper, and We
hope to see South Carolina we'll repre-
sented at the augusta Exposition, but
we would like to see also our own State
Fair at Columbia a bowling success.
We have no idea these gentlemen
meant in any way to slight our State
Fair or to discourage our farmers from
or sending exhibits thereto
by calling special attention to Augusta
IL the circular letter. At the same time,
however, if they desired to have the re-
sources Of the State brought to the at
tention o. the puollc and properly au-
vert:sed, they might also have directed
the attention of the farmers thereto, if it
was thought necessary to give special
stress to Augusta.
Possibly it was thought that our
farmers would think enough of their
own fair 20 take their own exhibits
here without having their attention
specially called to it.
At any rate every one should feel a
interest in our State Fair, and
We hope that exhibits will be large and
'aried as they should, and that the at
will be good.
We feel that Col. Holloway and |
hose associated with him will spare no |
oains to make the Fair a great sue
:ess.

That Greenwo cd Speech.
Cotton Plant I

The Herald and News (Newberry)
referring to our illustration at Green
wood uses this language in its issue of
October lst:
'If an explanation Of DR.. Stokes
Greenwood speech has ever been made
we have never seen it.n
Again in another editorial iii the
same issue, it says:
"Then we asked him if he really be-
lieved that the government would lose
nothing because the money was still in
circulation, and We have asked him
again, and as yet have received no
reply"
These are remarkable statements in
deed. We corrected The Herald and
News in the first issue of The Cotton
Plant after its question was asked. But
to 60 no further back than August 18th
we said under the caption Claims to
be Fair" the following:
"The trouble lies in his The Her
AIDS statement of it and not in what
DR.. Stokes said. He does not state all
that DR.. Stokes said. The statement
made at Greenwood was, that in the
case supposed the government had not
lost the $40 outstanding. It was in
circulation. The worst that could be
said about it was that it would have no
basis behind it; but that was no worse
than must be said about 346 million of
Greenbacks which have nothing but
the government behind them. He
further admitted that this might not
be desirable result, among those who
believe in money that is based alone on
some valuable entity, tut the question
of loss to the government was settled
by the argument in the negative-un-
less the 346 million Greenbacks repre-
sent loss to the government. If this
is not true statement will The Herald
and News kindly point out wherein it
fails of truth or accuracy? We ass',"1

THE LAW IN LACRESS.
Isaac kinard, Colored, Hanged for the
Murder of his Landlord, Mr.. Lemuel
G.. Oxner.
Special to News and Courier.

Especial to News and Courier
LAURENS, October l6.-The awful
scene in the courtyard of the Jail as
Isaac hlnard was ushered into eternity
is only 4 prelude to that to be enacted
when the eleven negroes pay the
penalty for the murder of Nance.
AT II O'Clock Ninard was seen in his
cell and appeared to be very cool, and
cared little to talk He said be slept
well last night and was ready for the
work OF to-day. AS they took him
from his cell he made only one request.
and that was that he be allowed to tell
his fellow-prlsoners goodbye. This was
granted and with broad grin he shook
their hands and they cried go, meet
US in glory, Ike" BE sure,n and then
as he proceeded down the stairs the
prisoners, who had been singing hymns
to him all the morning, began "Praise
God from whom all !essings flow"
At II O'Clock h vas placed on the
scaftold, and had no request to make
but that a pair Of socks and testa-
ment he had in his pocket be given to
the coloreG preacher. The block then
dropped, and after hanging twenty-five
minutes kinard was pronounced dead
by Drs. Dial, Aiken and Anderson.
Ike kinard was hanged for the muir
der of his landlord, Lemuel G. Oxner,
which occurred on June Is last. He
was sentenced on the 18th of October to
be hanged to-day. His attorneys en-
deavored TO get respite, but the Gov
error refused. Yesterday he expressed
himself to Deputy Winters as being
very sorry that he killed Mr.. Oxner;
that be was the best man he had ever
worked for, and he wished Oxner had
killed him instead of him killing OK
ner. His appearance, however, showed |
no signs of emotion.
A RESPITE FOR THE ELEVEN.
A respite has been given to the eleven |
negroes sentenced to be hanged next |
Friday until the Supreme Court can
act on the motion for a new trial.

Commodore Duncan Nathaniel In.
graham died in Charleston on Friday,
18th instant. He was born in 1902,
and at the age of 10 years was mid
shipmite. He fought through the war
Of 1872 as a midshipman. He served
in the Mexican war as commander,
and at the outbreak of the late war he
resigned. In March, 1861, he entered
the Confederate navy, and was assigned
to Pensacola and then to Charleston,
where he distinguished himself by
breaking up the blockade. He was
bold and fearless as an officer. One of
the most notable events in the navy
was his rescue and release of Koszta, a
naturalized American citizen, from the
Austrian ship of war Huzzar in June,
1858, in the Mediterranean. He had
lived very quietly at his birthplace,
Charleston, since 1866.

Lecturer heitt at anderson.

The Peoples Advocate gives the fol-
lowing report Of Lecturer keitts ad-
dress before the Anderson County ALI
| ance at its recent meeting:
District Lecturer Jos. l.. keitt being
| present was accorded the floor and pro-
ceeded to address the Alliance, more
especially on the question of finance.
He said that all civilized countries had
some system Of finance and that ours
was embodied in the national banking
system, which had SO completely placed
the control of the currency of the
country in the hands of a certain class
that the amount of the wealth of the
country held by the agricultural and
laboriug classes had steadily decreased
for the last three decades and that
during the last decade it had decreased
from So per cent. in 1880 to % per cent.
in 1890. That a great deal of this wealth
was of an invisible nature and the re-
suit was that those who produced the
wealth and owned only % per cent. Of
it paid about So per cent of the taxes
that were collected. That of the 81 ,000,-
100000 spent by the recent Congress
the farmers and laborers paid about
$500, 100000. This was an inequality
and injustice that we were seeking re-
lief from, and instead of the present
vicious and unrighteous system we had |
proposed another and different sys-
tenn by which the govern ment would |
take the control Of the currency from
the bankers and furnish it directly to |
the people based upon the products of
the soil. That this was true jefferson
ian Democracy as eyemplified in the
teachings of Jefferson, Calhoun and
Jackson, under whose leadership the
party had always fought the idea of
national banks as unconstitutional and
dangerous to liberty, and that Mr..
Calhoun had constantly held that the
government should not extend its
credit to the banks but to the people
directly without an Intermediary, and
that this was the underlying principle
of the suo-treasury plan. lis remarks
were continued at some length along
this line and were listened to attentive
ly and approvingly by the delegates.
