have passed through. It is generally
supposed that such derelicts have been
swept into the centre Of the pool and
remained in the Sargasso Sea until
finally. cast out by some unusually
violent storm.
The life in this sea is interesting.
Solitary and alone the acres of waters,
covered with the debris, stretch out as
the vast graveyard of the ocean, seldom
icing visited by vessels or human
beings. Far from all trading routes OF
vessels, the sight of q sail or steam yes
sci is something unusual. The fishes
of the sea form the chief life of these
watery solitudes. Attracted by the
vast quantities of wreckage floating In
the sea, and also by the gulf~eed on
which many of them live, they swarm
around in great numbers. The smaller
fishes live in the intricate avenues
formed by the seaweed, and the more
ferocious denizens Of the deep come
hither to feed upon the quantities OF
small fish. In this way the submarine
life ofthe Sargasso Sea is made interest
ing and lively.
The only life overhead is that made
by few sea birds, which occasionally
reach the solitudes of this mid-ocean
cemetery. A few Of the long flyers of
the air penetrate to the very middle OF
the ocean, but it is very rarely that
this occurs. Some have been known
to follow vessels across the ocean, keep
ing ata respectful distance from the
stern. Other birds have been swept
out to sea by storms, and have finally
sought refuge in the Sargasso Sea.
Still others, taking refuge on some
derelict, have been gradually carried to

VIM. D. Hardy was bora near May
binton, Newberry County, on April 20.
1s41. He received a very fair educs-;
tion at Asheyllle. n. G., in the well
known academy taught by Mr. Lee.
He was a salesman at Spartanburg
from 1859 to 1851, when he entered the:
Confederate service as volunteer in
the Spartan Rifles, 5th South Carolina
Infantry. At the reorganization in 1867.
he was made sergeant major, and after.
the battles around Richmond was pro-
NOTED to adjutant Of the 5th regiment.
he was engaged in farming until with
in two years ago, when he moved 10
Prosperity. Mr.. Hardy was delegate
from the Maybinton Club in every
Democratic convention held in New
berry County from 1872 to 1884, and
has frequently represented the county
in States and Congressional conven-
tions. He was president of every Dem-
ocratic convention that met in this
county during the campaigns of 1873
and 1850. IS
He was elected to the House Of Rep
resentatives in 1885, heading the ticket.
He became identified with the Farm
ers' Movement at its inception, and Is
now prominent Alliance man. Being
in thorough accord with the TlIman
Movement, he was put forward in the
primary as q candidate of that element
for the House, and was reelected, ana
this session of the Legislature begins
his second term as member Of thss

"While majority of the delegates
thought President Loueks was entitled
to the position of president, I think
many were influenced by reasons other
wise than his being a Third party man.
Col. Polk, a Southern man. zhai been
president for three years, and they
claimed thatnoB the presidency should

impressed those who opposed him
very favorably, by stating after his
election that if it was thought best by
the council and in the interest of the
general welfare of the order for him to
resign the presidency, he would most
cheertully do so and support any one
the council might agree upon"

"Well that is long story and there
is no need to go over it again. My
opinion is that if some of the officials
Of the Third party had stayed away
from Memphis we would not have
heard Of any division or disagreement;
it was unfortunate that the meeting
occurred 80 soon after the general elec.
ton, and in future the Supreme Coun-
ell will meet in February instead Of
November"
"What of the future of the Alliance,
and what about this decline in mem
bership?'
"a very original Texas delegate said
in his State a great many men joined
the Alliance to buy things cheap, when
the fact of the business was they did
not have any money to buy such
at any price, and so those had quit.
The organization is going to get rid of
its driftwood and continue right along
with its work. It may occasionally
elevate some unworthy person; it may
run ever some deserving one; but this
| is the farmers great work brought
into existence by similar combinations
by all other classes and conditions of
men. The farmers cannot give it up
if they would; if it should down to-day
as the Alliance, it would appear to-
morrow under another name. It has

outside of the currents of the ocean
were cast upon the shores Of some
country, but those which were worked
toward the centre eventually found
their way in the calm waters Of the
Sargasso Sea. Here they remain
peacefully until picked up by some
vessel, or until some storm casts them
back into the great pool.
Vessels very rarely visit the great
sea in the middle Of the ocean, but oc-
casionally they are driven there by
storms or adverse winds. Strange
sights meet the gaze of the sailors at
such times. Wonderful stories-part'
" true and partly false-have been
told by sailors returning from a forced
trip to the vast Sargasso Sea. The
surface of the sea is covered with
floating wrecks, spars, seaweed, boxes,
fruits, and a thousand other innumera-
bic articles. 1t is the great repository
OF storehousc of the ocean, and all
things which do notsink to the bottom
or are not washed upon the shores are

these people are ignorant starving

their debts where there has been q

for losses on dishonest, lazy people.
They are ignorant and need legislation
and the country is plumb full of corn

time to abolish totely the cursed lien
and mortgage sistam.
We also need dog law, as we can't
have sheep nor eggs toany satisfaction
in this mountain part Of the country,
