THE BEST ARE STRICKEN
Words I'm Memory Of w. C.
Bell.


At regular meeting of the Shiloh Bible So
ciety, held at Shiloh, July 23rd. the following
preamble and resolutions were adopted rela-
W. c. Bell, who died May 2s, 1892.
Knowing that He dOeth all things well, we
bow in humble submission TO the iascrutable
works or Providence. but 1t does seem
strange that the most beautiful characters
and useful members OF society are stricken
down in the morning of life. while the aged
saint, bowed down with years, are left to lin
ger on.
Very few young men have ever lived, and
lever still have ever died. with brighter rec
brance thereof, is veritable benediction Is
his home and community. His piety was OF
the gentle, womanly sort. He was endowed
with great amiability OF temper. tender sym
pathies, patience and charity, and the play OF
these traits gave lustre TO his life, ana won the
love Of all who knew him.
Resolved lst. That in the death or w. c.
Bell we recognize the loving hand OF our
heavenly Father, who doeth all things well
and we bow in humble submission 10 his VIII.
end That in this dispensation OF Provl-
dence our society has lost faithful friend
and wise counsellor, and his loss we deeply
mourn.
3rd. That we, as members of this society,
will warmly cherish his memory. Initiate his
virtues trusting that we also shall be ready
when the summons shall come 10 us 10 meet
him in that home above.
18th. That we tender our most heartfelt
sympathy to his bereaved family, and remem.
bcring them In our prayers, we VIII ASK Go9 q
to comfort and sustain them through lie, ana
when Iife's Journey is ended. may they DE
reunited famiT I'm heaven.
9Th. That :Se resolutions be published In
the county r.ipers and copy be sent 10 the
family of the deceased, also that page In our
minute book be inscribed to his memory.

Hard on the Lecture rs.

]. William Billy Stokes, President OF the
Alliance. says:
at the last State meeting ! recommended
certain changes in our constitution. Some of
those recommendations were adopted-nota-
bly, the lecture system. My own observation
OF that system, during year of its operation.
imprcSscs me that IL has not fully met The
expectations of It's farmers. In some sections
il has been eminently successful: but In the
main, its tangible benefits have not been up
TO cXpections. There Is unquestioned need OF
lecturing. and trust you will makesuch pro
vision FOR IT as Will meet the necessities OF
the case"
He will need to appoint as lecturers some OF
those "men of acknowledged ability and hon
esty," Of whom he speaks, to keep this people
In solid line.

ABUSE OF THE PRESS.
Tyrants md COrruptiOnists in All
Ages Have Feared the Power of
the Press, and Those Who Would
Usurp the Rights OF the People
Would Destroy Free Press and


The Press and Standard of Walterboro. S. G.,
has this to say of the Abuse Of the Press"
We reproduce 1t for what it is worth. 1t may
suggest an idea to the voter, under certain cir
cumstances, but whether it does or does not
the people will still look TO their newspapers ::
To spitefully attack the newspapers of our
State seems to be favorite theme with lot
OF ti1th-rate orators and oftice-seekers OF our
day. The State press Is denounced by them
on every occasion. The people are advised
not to read the papers unless they are the or
paus of their particular band Of office-seekcrs.
Now, their object is apparent. If they could
destroy the influence OF the press, they would
have things their own way. If they could in
duce the people to look only ut their side OF
the picture, they could control the "toilng
masses" without any trouble. The newspa-
pers are the great educators OF the people.
and they are generally more reliable than the
fellows who continually abuse them. Our
people do not read enough. If they read
more any OF them could not be so easily de-
ceived by blatant demagogues and chronic Of
fice-SeekerS. The masses OF the people are
not as well informed on matters that affect
the public welfare az they shonld be. What
they need is In formation. Unless they read
the papers. hear argument and think for
themselves they cannot assume Il position IN
telllgcntly.

should not forget this memorial occasion.
OF all our holidays it is the most beautiful.
1t commentaries the memory of the brave
men who died for the flag and therepubic,
and should be remembered by a patriotic
people. The custom of making it day of
pleasure is being frowned upon by the more
thoughtful 1t is an occasion which takes
every family in the land back to those dark
days when brother, father or lover went
on his last journey from home. There
were no loving hands to care for him, no
kind words to comfort him, no soothing
hand placed upon his brow; only the val
ley of death before him. The doleful sound
of the funeral dirge throughout the coun-
try will take the old soldier back to the
battle ground, the good, loving women to
the hospital bedside, and will instil in
every young and manly heart the reverence
due to those who fought and died, and to
whom we are indebted for a great and
glorious republic.
