THE EUROPEAN HEGlRA,

1t isestimated than an hundred thou
sand Americans will 60 to Europe next
year. When it is considered that they
will spend not less than $1,000 each
some idea can be obtained of the enor-
nous drain that this exodus year aft
er year occasions this country. This
sum goes out, too; not for goods, but
is so much Of our surplus wasted in
luxury. No other countrycould stand
it for year. The compensation
comes, we suppose, in the new ideas
that they pick up and bring back with
them. There is one thing that they
cannot find in any part of Europe,
and that is remedy for coughs, colds
and all maladieS that affect the lungs
that equals Reds German Cough and
Kidney Cure. This great preparation
has no equal in the world for diseases
that affect the respiratory organs. 1t
contains no opiate, thus making it a
family remedy in which every mother
can put the utmost confidence.

This is, said to be an of:year in poll
tics, but there seems to be no rest anG
everything is kept lively. Charleston
politics has been kept in Turmoil
nearly all the year, but some time age
the two factions got together and ap
parently made peace: The last ten
days, however, have stirred things
again.
Governor Tillman ordered the re.
nloval of one Mr.. Cantwell, Supervisor
of Registration, on the ground that he
held another Office, and one man could
not hold two. We should think that
was sufficient reason, for even with one
Office to the, mar there are not half
enough offices to go round. But Mr..
Cantwell said he would not be removed
in any such manner, and he forthwith
employs Charleston lawyer and the
question is to be taken into the United
States court. The Charleston lawyer
is in good luck this year.

TERRELL TALKS.
Tho Alliance Lecturer Gives His Views of
the Third Party.

The State of the 3lst May had th'
following expression from Hon. Ben
Terrell, the Alliance lecturer, who ba:
been in South Carolina for some time
lecturing:
HE says he finds the Alliance ir
South Carolina in good shape, and al
all his meetings there has been good
attendance.
When asked of his opinion of the
Third party movement and probability
of the Alliance entering it he said: AS
an Allianceman ! tell you we are not to
have anything to do with it. 1t is
against our constitution to meddle with
any party whatever. Politics is de-
barred. But don't understand me to
say that the Individual members can
not do as they please
He then, as an ordinary citizen, said
that the strength of the Third party de-
pendad on conditions-if either of the
two old parties came out with a plat
form granting the demands made by
the Third party advocates, it will not
develop very great strength. Other
wise it is destined to gain strength as
it lasts. The Western States are strong
for it; Kansas, both the Dakotas, Colo
RADIO and Nebraska are almost certain
to go solid for it. IF the demands for
financial reform are not granted he
said, the movement will be hit like a
cyclone. I'm a native Texan, and
always voted the democratic ticket,
but I see men everywhere who will
bolt unless reform is granted and l
travel from Dakota to Florida. The
party which attempts to confne the
campaign of 1892 to the discussion of
the tariff is mad. It's simpossible. The
people have the devil in their necks for
financial reform and you can no more
stop them than turn the direction of
water flowing in river. The money
question is obliged to come in.'
Mr.. Terrell then went on to say that
he always did his best for the interest
Of the people and indicated that fnan-
cial reform was just the thing needed.
In fact he indicates very strongly that
he is heartily in sympathy with the

At the last meetitg Of the Southern
Press Association it was decided to raise
money to erect a suitable monument
to the memory of Jefferson Davis. A
committee was appointed and has is.
sued an address to the public. It has
been decided to hold a meeting in each
town and county in the Southern
States, on June Is, for the purpose OF
taking steps, and raising the necessary
funds for this purpose.
Newber-v had an enthusiastic me-
mortal service in December, 1889, on
the occasion of the death of Mr.. Davis
and we have no doubt will take pleas
ure in aiding and contributing to this
landable work begun by the Southern
Press Association. ....
It would be a good idea if Newberry
is to take any part in this work if it
would be taken in charge by the suryi-
vors association.
The time for the meeting is short and
waat is to be done must be done quick
ly.

All seemed to enjoy the discussions.
Rev. J. 3. Traywick of the Methodist
Church and Rev. John r. Edwards, of
Due West, being present were, by reso-
luton, received as advisory members of
Conference. Their presence added
much to the interest Of the occasion,
both participating heartily in the dis
cussions.
The members of the congregation of
Prosperity were untiring in their efforts
to entertain, and made the delegates
feel at home while in their midst.
The chairman of the Executive Com
mittee being absent, Mr.. A. J. Gibson
read the report of the committee which
was adopted as the programme for next
