speech Of Senator McDufie of South Car

GIN free competition for the market of
the United States, the wages of manufact-
uring labor in the northern states must be
reduced at least as low as the wages of
labor in England. The natural price Of the

is precisely the same as the manufacturing
labor of England, and not cent more"

speech Of Congressman Lewis Of Ala

Southern states is not more than % cents

CALL FOR REPUBLICAN STATE
CONVENTION.

A general convention of the republican
party of Washington is hereby called to
meet at the city of Olympia on Wednesday
the tenth Q0th) day of August, 1892, at
1O:30 o'clock am, for the purpose of nomi-
mating four presidential electors, two con-
gressmen, full state ticket, appointing a
new state committee and for the transac-
ton Of such other business as may come
before the convention.
The basis of representation to the con-
vention hereby called shall be as follows,
to wit:
One delegate at large from each county;
one delegate from each county for every
one hundred 100) votes and one delegate
from each county for each fraction Of fifty
(50) votes or more over one hundred (100);
the same to be calculated from the number
of votes cast in each county for the republi-
can candidate for governor in 1889.
Upon the foregoing basis the several
counties in this state are entitled to repre-

Famous ship,

1t is not generally known that the Ches-
Rpeake, famous for her historic encounter
with the British ship, the Shannon, in 1913,
is in existence today as sound and stanch
as the day she was launched, but is used
in the ingloriOus capacity of -four mill.
After her capture by Sir Phillip B..
V. Broke she was taken TO England in 1914,
and in 1920 her timbers were sold to John
Prior, miller, of Wickham, Hants. Mr..
Prior pulled down his old mill at Wickham
and erected new one from the Chesa-
peake timbers, which he found admirably
adapted for the purpose. The deck beams
were 80 feet long and IS inches square,
and we're placed unaltered hOr-
izontally in the MILL The purlins
of the deck were about u feet long, and
served without alteration for joists. Many
of these timbers yet have the marks of the
Shannon's grapeshOt, and in some places
the shot are still to be seen deeply inn
bedded in the pitch pine. The metamor-
phOsis of a sanguinary man-of-war into a
peaceful, DEMONSTRATING -four mill is an
other evidence of the progress of civiliza-
ton and the general amnesty and increas-
ing good will between the two nations. 1t
is, perhaps, as near an approach to the
scriptural prophecy that spears and swords
shall be beaten into ploWs and pruning
hooks as the conditions of modern civiliza-
tlOn will allOw.-Ashton Reporter.

Whole number

1t is recommended that the republican
county central committees call the prima-
Ties in their respective counties for Satur-
day the twenty-third (23d) day of July,
and the county conventions for Saturday
the thirtieth (30th) day of July, 1892, Un-
less in their judgment they deem it best to
name earlier dates.
1t is also recommended that each county
convention elect alternates as well as dele
gates, so that their representation in the
state convention shall be by duly elected
delegates or their alternates only. In case
a delegate and his alternate are both absent,
the delegation to be authorized to cast the
vote.
For the formation of county and precinct
committees we respectfully refer TO the
"rules" and ask that they be followed.

followed its successful re-occupation. And
Clarence, remembering her older caprices,
ana her remark on her first recognition OF
him, was quite surprised at the easy
familiarity of her reception Of this for
gotten companion of their childhood. But
he was still more concerned in noticing,
for the first time. singular sympathetic
understanding of each other, and an odd
similarity of occasional action and ex-
preston between them. 1t was q part
of this monstrous popularity that
neither the sympathy nor the likeness
suggested any particular friendship
or amity in the pair, but rather
a mutual antagonism and suspicion. Mrs.
Peyton, coldiy polite to Clarence's former
companion, but condescendingy gracious
to his present tenant and retainer, did not
notice it, preoccupied with the annoyance
and pain of Susy's frequent references to
the old days of their democratic equality.
"You don't remember, Jim, the time that
you painted my face in the wagon, and
got me up as an Indian papoose?" she
said mischievously. But jim, who had
no desire to recall his previous humble po-
sitlon before Mrs. Peyton or Clarence, was
only vaguely responsive. Clarence, al
though joyfully touched at the seeming
evidence of Susy's loyalty to the past, new
ertheless found himself even more acutely
panied at the distress it caused Mrs. Pey-
ton. and was rs relieved as sine was
by Hooker's reticence. For he had seen
little of Susy since Peyton's death, and
there had been no repetition of their Sc
cret interviews. Neither had he nor she,
as far as he could judge, noticed the omis-
sion. He had been more than usually
kind. gentle and protecting in his manner
towards her, with little reference, how
ever, to any response from her. yet he was
vaguely conscious of some change in his
feelings. He attributed 1t, when he
thought of it at all, to the exciting ex-
periences through which he had passed
to some sentiment of responsibility to his
dead friend. and to another secret preoc-
cupation that was always in his mind. He
believed it would pass in time. Yet he
felt certain satisfaction that she
was no longer able to trouble him,
except, of course, when she
panied Mrs. Peyton, and then he
was half conscious of taking the old at
titude of the dead husband in metliating
between them. Yet so great was his ex-
perience that he believed with pathetic
simplicity of perception that all this was
due to the slow maturing of his love for
her, ana that he was still able to make her

MODERN REFORMERS.

The world has had reformers, men who were
sternly just,
Who smote the thrones of wickedness and laid
them in the dust:
Meek, tender men, made mighty by mankind's
blood and tears,
Strong men, whose words were thunderbolts to
smite the wrong of years.
Were all these stern reformers OF a breed too
weak to last?
Did all the great wrong.smiters wane and per.
ish in the past?
Did they fight losing battle? were they con-
quered in the fray?
Why are there no refOrmers fighting in the
world today?
Well, tits but thing of labels: the reformers
have not gone,
But they're mixing with the people with mis-
leading piacards on;
For we placard them Fanatics" "Visiona-
riess' "Cranks' and Foois."-
Men denounced by clubs and churches, by the
journals and the schools.
There are men who bear these pfseards daily in
the market-place,
Heroes of the ancient lineage. kings and saviors
of the race,
Yet we never see their greatness through Hfe's
trivial events;
But our chldren's sons will read IL on their
granite monuments

1t was the truth. There was no denying
the authority of the document, the facts of
the situation or lis ultimate power and sig
nificance. There was CONSERVATION, stupe-
faction and even half humorous recogni-
ton OF the absurdity of their position on
most OF the faces around him. Incon-
gruous as the scene was, it was made still
more grotesque by the attitude of Jim
Hooker. RuthIessiy abandoning the party
OF convicted trespassers. he stalked
gioomiiy over to the side of Clarence
with the air of having been all the
time scornfuliy in the secret, and a
mien of wearied righteousness, and
thus hating, he disdainfuily expectorated
tobacco juice on the ground between him
and his late companions-as if to form a
line Of demarcation. The few Mexicans
began to edge toward the gateway. This
detection OF his followers recalled the
leader, who was no coward, to himself
again.

As its two sides cashed together again
he turned deliberately to Clarence:

That's just where we differ" said Clar-
ence, coolly, ''for if you will take the
trouble to examine the house you will see
that it is already in the possession of Mrs.
Peyton-my tenant" He paused to give
effect to his revelations. But he was,
nevertheless, unprepared for an unre-
hearsed dramatic situation. Mrs. Peyton,
who had been tired of waiting, and was
listening in the passage, at the mention of
her name entered the gallery, followed by
the young ladies. The slight look of sur
prise upon her face at the revelation she
had just heard of Clarence's ownership.

mistake OF the assailant. The purpose

been to remove Clarence as a possible wit
