Captain Lewis Jones.

Captain Lewis Jones is no more
He died at his residence in the
town of Edgefeld on Tuesday last
at Z p. m. after long illness, aged
~ years.
Deceased was the last of four
brothers, of a family that has made
itself historic in the annals OF
Edgefeld county. He was for a
number of years before the war,
Sheriff of this County, and we have
often heard the remark that he was
without a peer in the discharge OF
the duties of this high ofice-the
most responsible indeed of all the
county Offices.
Afterwards he served in the Leg
islature, and in all he did and all
he said in that body he was ever
inspired by that same inaexible
determination to do his duty.
When the war began Capt. Jones
raised a company of cavalry and
enlisted in the Sixth regiment,
and the happiest and best recollec-
tions of his long and eventful life
were associated with that organiza-
tion.
After the war he was for a series
of years President of the Atlantic
and French Broad Railroad, after
wards the Carolina, Cumberland
Gap, and did as much, perhaps
more, than any man to give Edge
field a railroad connection with
the outside. world.
In his private life and relations
deceased was all that could be
desired. His manner and exterior
appearance was to the casual OBJ
server cold and stern, but he had
a warm and tender. heart, and those
who knew him best, knew it's
warmth and appreciated his friend
ship. His friends indeed, he bound
to;him with hooks of steel. His
remains were laid 10 rest in the
family cemetery on the. hill which
overlooks the village that he loved
so well-there to rest.till the res
direction morn.
aLife's labor done, securely laid
In this, his last retreat;
Unheeded Ger his silent dust
The storms of life shall beat"

MRS. LEASE SELLS OUT.
She Now Advises Kansas Repub.
licans to Vote for Harrison.

New YORK, Oct, 15.-special
from Topeka, Kansas, says: The
sensation of the day in Kansas is
the interview with Mrs. Lease,
who has been accompanying Gen.
Weaver on his tour through the
Southern States. She recites the
indignities they were subjected to,
and then declares that if a vote for
Weaver is in reality vote for
Cleveland IN this State, her desire
is that the Populists scratch their
ticket and vote for the Harrison
electors. ~
Mrs. Lease is, next to Jerry
Simpson, the strongest leader OF
the Kansas. Populists, and her
expressed wishes have caused
great CONSERVATION, not only in
her own party but among the Demo-
Gratis. She comedies every Sou.
thern State to Cleveland, and
therefore, at this late day, indie
ates her preference for Harrison.
Her advice will be followed by
many, but at this time it is imposs-
ible to say to what extent. !
NOT WANTED IN IOWA.

Lease, of Kansas, is booked for a

party State committee, to-day

lis'led reports that she had advised
the Populists to vote for Harrison

Reason Why.
. Uncle Adam Kinard, of Kinards,
was in town on Friday last to at
tend the quarterly meeting of the
County Alliance. While in our
Office we interviewed him for the
reason awhy shucks on, the corn are
this year thicker than usual" He
agreed with us that the shuck was
heavier and thicker than usual,
but said, athat's no sign of a hard
winter, that corn this year is larger
and better than in other years and
that nature has simply put a
warmer and better covering on the
ear, teaching this lesson to the
farmers: that if they will do their
duty, plant corn ard pienty of it,
she will do hers and try to protect
it until housed" He also told us
he is planting corn from the same
seed be got in 1916.

w. L. Douglass, the Massac-
husetts shoe manufacturer, whose
picture adorns so many of the
newspapers in this country,
knocked the Mckinley tariff out
in one round at Brockton the
other night. Rising Sun. Morse,
who made so great an ass of him
self at the last session of Con-
gress, said some time ago that
Mr.. Douglass was getting SO pro-
sperous under the Mckinley tariff
bill that he could not afford to
run" for Congress. In his speech
at Brockton, Mr.. Douglass infor-
med Mr.. Morse that "the McKiu-
ley bill had nothing to do with the
prosperity of the shoe business, as
/ can prove to him by an examina-
tion ofmy books. The Mckinley
tariff went into effect November
IA, 1890, and for three months
following my business fell off30
per cent. How did I regain it?"
continued Mr.. Douglass. "By
doubling my force of statesmen and
increasing the amount of my news
paper Advertising" MI. Douglass
discussed the free hides question
and it's relation to the shoe
industry. He said that Brockton's
prosperity was due to free raw
material and that what was good
for the shoe industry was also
good for the iron. building, and
woollen industries. Good for the
man who makes good shoes at So
a pair and does not ask or expect
any legislation from Congress to
enable him ia keep up with the
procession. The fearful will

The Female College under Prof.
Townes' care is still, holding it's
own and doing good work.
Female colleges are numerous,
but it seems that all in the State
are well .patronized. And it should
be 80, for the girls go back home
and stay, as a rule, longer than
the boys who go to college: The
old home feels the influence of the
educated girl.
The Graded School under Prof.
Hughes, recently from Reidville,
N. G., is moving on with a full
attendance and g good corps of
teachers. They have done a great
deal for the city. About five years
ago two houses, one for the east
side of Reedy and one for the west
side, were built. Both sides of the
river have felt the good effects of
the schools in bringing in good
citizens to be among us.
Several years ago a Presbyterian
preacher said to the writer that
Baptists were thicker in Edgefeld
county than anywhere he had ever
been or heard of. After due allow
ance is made for his exageration,

of your Baptist readers is, no
doubt, large enough to make some
words about our churches here ex-
cusable, which we may give you in
afuture issue.
Greenville has never what a
boom is, but better still, she keeps
on growing steadily in spite of the
stringency in money matters. She
has the climate and situation and
there is no reason why there should
not be indefinite growth as the
years pass by. G.

After 1s93-whatq

In American politics we seldom
try to look beyond the next pre-
sidential election, and perhaps not
very many people are trying to do
it now, but it requires no special
gift Of prophecy to see that very
soon after 1893 something is going
to happen in the United States and
that in a most unmistakable way.
The times are ripe for it, and the
successful postponement a matter
of very doubtful possibility. -
The election of Mr.. Cleveland in
Novemberisthe strong probability
of the present, and itsis almost
sure to be followed by a great pol
titical upheaval in the Southern
States which will leave the Demo
cratic party little hope of carry
ing half a dozen of them in the
presidential campaign of 1896. We
regard this as one of the certain
results of Mr.. Cleveland's election,
and we are in no way alarmed at
at the prospects. Both the Demo-
cratic and the Republican parties
would have to, adjust themselves to
a new basis, and the civil war
would be eliminated from poll
tics. 1t might cost Mr.. Cleveland
and the Democratic party some
humiliation, but it would hurt
neither of them and would be for
the great advantage Of the county
If we conceive the possibility Of
Mr.. Harrison's reinauguration, the
complete extermination of the
Republican party follows ssna-
turally. Such policy as has been
illustrated by him and his faction
cannot be maintaintained in time
of peace. If he were reelected the
effects of his policy, reacting on
his party, would completely dem
oralize it. The country would rise
in 1894 as 1T lose in 1890, and in
1896 it would complete the work
by polling the votes of nine-tenths
of the States against Radicalism.
In only one way does it seem poss-
ible that such an event could be
averted-by foreign war. After the
defeat of 1890 Harrison seemed to
realize that policy could not be
carried out with the county at
peace. Undoubtedly he was very
anxious to have a war for cam
paign purposes, and if again
inaugurated with the complete
ruin of his party otherwise inevi-
table through its control by his
faction, it is to this old tyannical
and murderous expsdient of fore
ing war to escape responsibility in
peace that he would naturally turn.
Only by forcing foreign war
does it seem possible that the
republican party could long
survive Harrison's reelection. And
this expedient would as surely
react on them as it did on the
Democratic. party which, when it
forced the war with Mexico for
political effect, revived the dying
Wing party, elected the 'Whig,
General Taylor President, and
made inevitable the period of
twenty-five years of retirement
from power in which Democracy
has done penance for the invasion
and subjugation of Mexico.-St.
Louis Republic.

All South Carolinians will be
gratifed by the respect with which
the Governor of the State was
treated by the Governor of New
York. Probably all the other Gov
ernors were kept at home by poll
tics, while the fact that our politi-
cal fight is over left our Governor
free. However it came about, it
seems, that Gov. Tillman was the
only outside Governor at the big
parade Monday in the Christopher
Columbus celebration, and he
received courtesies which cannot
but be pleasant to his constituents.
He and Treasurer Bates occupied
the reviewing stand with Gov.
