The lottery is the victor so far in the
primary elections OF Louisiana; but the
issue is to be tried over again before the
whole people. Still, the rest of the country
must be prepared to expect almost anything
from q State where the mob overrides the
law on the assertion that the courts are cor
rupt and the courts proceed to indorse both
the Indictment against themselves and the
lawlessness of mob murder.

The theory that the big hats at theaters
are all worn by servant girls is a charitable
explanation of the disregard for the COM
fort of others and tbs absence of good breed
ing shown by that article of feminine garD
in the wrong place. Only the servant girls,
when they understand it, may be expected
to have better manners than to stick to the

Beginning to TSll Already.

Cleveland Leader.]
A dispatch from London says that the tin
plate industry in South Wales is very much
depressed. Several large works have shut
down, throwing large number of workmen
out of employment. American competition
is beginning to tell already, and yet the
Democrats said we could not make tin plate
in this country.

IF the express companies will build

AN English journal asserts that the
taking up of new occupations by women

sealskins win Come Higher. It Seems.

''There is no likelihood of sealskins get
ting cheaper as has been rumored," said .
dealer in furs who has been looking at the
market in Now York; ION the contrary, it is
more than likely that they will gradually
become dearer. London sets the price of
sealskins and comparison of the sales Of
January and October of this year will show
that the advance already has been consid-
erable- At the January sale, for instance,
sealsk1ns, taking 'middling and small Alas
kan skins for an example, fetched about s3l,
and fn October the same skins sold at s34;
the New York prices at like dates being
$44 SO and S4S. Hook for a further advance
next year, for the supply is falling of, and
the demand. if anything, is increasing. Some
idea Of how the supply of sealskins has de-
creased may be had from the fact that in the
last decade the largest number OF sales in
London was 226 37S skins in 1887, whereas last
year only 49,, ,653 skins were sold, and to Oc-
tober 26 in this year the sales lIave shrunk
to 90, ,l38 skins. I'm afraid. therefore, that
the sealsKin coat is going to be more of q
luxury than ever, though as yet just as
many people as ever, in Pittsburg at least,
are buying them"

Bad Disease-Heroic Treatment.

Greensburg Sparks.]
Sparks localizes a disease common to small
towns, and prescribes medicine for its cure:
There are some men in Greensburg-and
their number appears to be increasing-who
have acquired the habit of speaking disre-
spectfully Of almost every lady they happen
to pass on the street. They invariably have
some remark to make about the lady's ap-
pearance, dress or manners, which they con-
slider cute and smart. but which, if uttered
in the presence of any loyal friend Of the
lady, would be sufficient provocation for a
severe thrashing. Sometimes pair of black
eyes, artistically administered, is the best
cure for this particular kind of disease.

What a New Main Would Cost.

"I presume the laying of a new rising main
would cost in the neighborhood of $50, ,G00"
he continued, (Which only represents 10 per
cent of the net income of the water depart
ment last year. 1t should be remembered
that the water department is the only one
that yields the city profit, and also that it
Is desirable that the enlargement of the
city's water service should keep pace with
the city's growth, for health, convenience
and protection against fire, but that the
enlargement is positive agent in building
up the city. Take for instance the case of
man who buys property in the suburbs, he
Is not likely to build until he can obtain city
water: and know of many cases in which
the denial of city water is preventing desir-
able locations from being built up. There
fore, if the city increases in population as
fast as it has done in the last decade. at the
rate of 80 per cent, 1t is plain that the inn
provement of our water works is of the first
Importance. When you come to calculating
the cost it is we'll to think of what might
happen IL the present rising main should
break, and while the city is without water q
confagration should occur"

Patent Sides.

We ask the attention Of any country broth
er who may want patent side to the extra
pages which we distribute with the Press and
Banner.
Two pages are printed by the Anderson In
telligencer, and more complete collection OF
selections, or more acceptable pages were
never sent to our subscribers. Without en-
ceptIon, every one who has spoken to us has
been delighted with It, These pages having
pleased our subscribers so WELL we feel like
commencing them to any brother editor who
feels disposed to use a patent outside. For
any South Carolina printer we think the An
derson Intelligencer pages would be most ac-
ceptable, and better suited to the tastes and
desires of the people than any sheets that we
have seen, and any editor who may be con-
templating the patent outside might find II
to his advantage to consult that office. II
anybody should critIcise the quality or the
size Of the paper, we would say that office
uses the paper which we furnish.
