No Conflict Has Arisen.

Judge Hebbard remanded Mortimer Fox
into the custody OF Chief OF Police Crowley,
who holds him for perjury. Fox tried on
habeas corpus 10 obtain his release on the
ground that the Federal court had original
jurisdiction over his person for rifling mall
Boxes and that his arrest by the police pre-
cipated a conflict between the District and
State courts. Judge Hebbard held that the
question of conflict of Jurisdiction could
not arise until the Federal court made Il de-
manj for Fox and was refused.

Edgefeld should be proud
proud of the fact that she has the
Governor incumbent and Governor
elect-proud of the fact that his
competitor was also from Edgefeld,
a competitor who bore himself, dur
ing the whole campaign, with so
much dignity, courtesy, and fairness,
as to win alike the plaudits of friend
and foe. Standing on platform OF
peace and unity, Governor Shep-
pard made peace and unity the text
of all his speeches. The other can
didates on the same ticket and stand
ing upon the same platform, peace
and unity, were aggressive, bitter,
venomous-the hand of Esau but
the voice of Jacob. With Cover

The "Pirates " Prevail.
Cotton Plant. ]

The election is past, the count is
completed, the result declared. And
what is that result: The Reformers
have prevailed by upwards of twenty
FIVE thousand majority, as far as the
State ticket is concerned, and have
safely carried FIVE Congressional Dis
tricts.
These are the people whom Gen.
McCrady, OF Charleston, in a mo-
ment of swollen arrogance, termed
pirates, and called upon the 'best
people" to throw overheard. This
is the way the pirates have replied
to the insolent imputation, and it is
the reply they will always give.
The only favor they have to ask is
that they be allowed to be present
when the throwing overheard act is
attempted. So far as we know, Gen.
McCrady's motives have never been
impugned. No Reformer has ques-
toned his sincerity or ability; but
when he assumed to set up stan
dard OF Democracy for all people,
and cast aspersions mos. foul upon
his fellow-citizens, he laid himself
open to vigorous criticism, and the
people have administered a crushing
rebuke. From present appearances
the pirates are not only on deck,
but are likely to guide the ship over
Democratic waters for some time to
come. Ii our transcendental Demo
cratic fellow-citizens have any poll
cies they would like to see adopted,
therefore, We would suggest to them
that they try terms of courtesy and
refinement rather than abuse. The
language Of argument and persuasion
is more potent always than abuse.

Concerning "Old Maids"

The term "old maid is rapidly
disappearing from society. People
who are heard to use that opprobri-
Gus epithct can at once be classed
among the ignorant and vulgar. I'll The
fields of labor are now SO much wider
;or women that they are more self
respecting, and are learning to ar
lyze the realities OF life rather than to
Judge of things on the surface, which
was the result OF the old narrow way
OF educating women. They are also
learning the truth, that unless peo-
pie marry for love, and for no other
reason, marriage results il unhappi-
ness and misery for both; and unless
true congeniality can be secured as a
basis for married lie, the better way
is to remain single. The day is going
by when women accept an offer OF
marriage for fear Of being called an
sold mad" That kind OF vulgar
ridicule from the lips OF commonplace
and ignorant people has given rise to
more unhappy marriages than any
ether cause. Now that women are
becoming more enlightened, the ten
dency OF the times is teaching them
that they need not be necessarily
passed or LID away upon the shelf
if they remained unmarried after
reaching the age OF twenty-five. Two
or three years ago the most sought
after and fascinating women IL New
port society were SOM ladies between
thirty and fifty years of age. The
experience of women OF education
and travel, charmingly dressed, has
taught them how to sip Lies pleas
ures with a tact that put their PIN
feathery sisters, with all their advant-
ages of youth and beauty, in the shade.

The Voice Of the People.
REPEATING THE VERDICT OF 1890
AGAINST M'KINLEY1sat.

New YORK, September 1.-THE
Democratic National Committee have
issued the following address:
To THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED
STATES: The Democratic National
Committee congratulates the country
on the result of the recent State cleo
tions in Maine, Vermont and Arkan-
sas. In Arkansas the combined
opposition, after so many extrava-
CANT claims, fell short by over 10000
of the vote of the Democracy alone.
This has brought dismay to the CON-
bination in the South and its manipu-
lators in the North.
In Maine and Vermont the con-
test was conducted distinctly on
national issues. The Republican
managers appealed for votes in these
States on the ground that the "size
of pluralities would exert great moral
influence on the campaign in other
States" and that the poll would be
apractically our vote for President" ;"
Similar appeals summoned to their
aid all the potent resources of their
national organization, with its exhaust
less treasury and its splendid equip
ment of orators of national fame.
With every favoring force at their
command, except public opinion, with
no organization opposed save those
made up within the State by the
minority party, which has been out
of power for generation, and which
was unaided from without, the cam
paign of our adversaries for a tri-
umphant test vote in these States, SO
carefully planned and so thoroughly
and forcefully executed, has ended
in conspicuous disaster. Our friends
everywhere are entitled to take fresh
courage from these results. They
mean that the strong tendency of
public sentiment is with the Demo
cracy, and that the people of the
country are prepared to enforce
rather than reverse the verdict which
they rendered in 1890.

Warning Against Office.See'

The Hon. Albert G. Brown, OF
Mississir.ei "-osious- to ais death,
wrote letter 20 a young friend, in
which he laments that he ever made
political speech or held an office.
Ex-Governor Brown was for thirty
three years, previous to 1865, con-
tinually in high official and political
station, and would therefore seem to
have had as extensive and favorable
an experience as any of his contem-
poraries and associates. We quote
as follows
"True, as you say, have held
many offices. Indeed, | may say
never knew defeat in any OF my aspi-
rations and it is just because | Lad
success which people call wonderful,
that feel confident to administer a
word of caution to the young men
of this generation.
"My young friend, do not be de-
ceived by the glitter OF Office. l am
now past my three score years, and
am fast travelling into the ten. |
have held almost every Office in the
gift Of the people, and can truly
say, with the preacher, lit is oil van
ity and yexation of spirit
''Looking back over long, and
hope not unsuccessful life, | can say,
with clear conscience, my greatest
regret is that | ever made political
speech or held an Office.
aThere is a fascination in office
which b guiles men, but he assured,
my young friend, it is the -
of a serpent, or, to change =
it is the ignis fatuus which
you on to inevitable ruin.
81 speak Of that which l do know.
If my young friends will be
cred by my advice, have
after all my success as
now, IN my L.
for the grave, I feel that It voul'
have been better for me if had fol-
lowed the occupation of my father,
and been a farmer.
The mechanic arts are all honora-
bic. To be blacksmith, carpenter,
or an artisan of any sort is no dis
credit to any man. Better than to
be a jackleg lawyer, quack doctor,
or counter-hopper, or, worse still,
wretched seeker after Office.
''Of all pursuits in life that OF a
farmer is the most respectable. 1t
may have its trials and disappoint-
ments; so do ali others. The ne
chanic may lose the wageS 9i MS
labor, the professional man his fees,
the editor may weep over deiia2a.ea....e,

friends against the beguiling inau-
ence OF Office, and to advise them
most earnestly to stick to mother

Federal administration. This law
applies to all cities having apopula-
ton OF 10000 or upwards. Itapplies
to country districts, exclusive of such
cities, upon application te the super
visors by one hundred voters of such
districts. At the option of less than
one per cent of the voters to be
affected by it this law, with all its
harshness and great expense, can be
put into operation, and this, too,
without the slightest intimation that
injustice or fraud is contemplated in
the management of such election.
As have said, while this bill is
intended specially to control elections
in the South, it may be put into
operation in ever Congressional Dis
trict in the United States. Aside
from its utter disregard of the rights
of the voter, its disregard of local
government and of the sanctity of
:i1t55ffhhes, its expense woul.-- o.aror-
nous. If put into operation in every
Congressional District, as it may be,
it would call into its service at every
polling place Federal election officers
aggregating more than 100000
throughout the entire country. 1t
has been estimated that its cost at
your regular Congressional elections,
if put into general operation, would
fall little short of slO,000,0O0.
This bill in everyline and paragraph
breathes destruction tc the people.
1t is totally destructive of local self
government. 1t would be difficult
to find on any page of our history a
more daring attempt 20 weaken the
power of the people and centralize
all power in the Federal government.
No single officer entrusted with its
execution is elected by the people.
From the Judge who makes the
appointment of the chief supervisors
to the iowy,,c deputy ms.:-@h~'
entrusted with its execution, all
receive their appointment under
Federal authority. The people, the
source of all political power under
our constitution, have no voice in
this elevation of those who, under
the monstrous provisions of this bill,
can sport at will with their dearest
rights. This legislation, my fellow
citizens, is devised in the spirit of
hate. Can it be possible that Ameri-
can people will consent to the enact
ment of law SO Lostile to the spirit
of our free institutions, legislation
which savors only of vengeance and
the successful operation of which
would involve the expenditure of
millions of dollars and bring in its
train untold horrors?
Stevenson's remarks on the force
bill were followed by a discussion of
the tariff similar in substance to his
previous speeches on that subject.
