In congress yesterday the senate was
entertained by speeches from Senators
Blackburn of Kentucky and Butler OF
South Carolina. The latter gentleman
made the sensible suggestion that the
very essence of all legislation was COM
promise. and that the silver question
must be adjusted on that basis. Both
were unqualifiedly opposed to the un-
qualified repeal OF the Sherman act.
The Democrats OF the house have made
up their minds that the Tucker bill,
repeating the federal elections laws, is a
little too sweeping, and Congressman
Fitch, Democrat, of New York, has in
troduced modified measure.

WE HAVE had occasion to call the at
tention of Angelefios to the very excep-
tionally good condition of the Los
Angeles banks; in fact, to those OF Cal
ifornia at large. Notwithstanding the
sneering references of Comptroller Of
the Currency Eckels to the banks of the
west, and to what he was pleased to
term "boom" regions, the banks of the
Golden State have had a magical record.
We append below table embodying
the suspensions and re-openings OF the
several banks OF the United States &C.
cording to recent figures:

Irby Now Where Johnstone Was.

During the last campaign the "dominant ell.
ement" claimed everything and was willing
TO yield nothing. 1t seems that different
spirit rules now. Senator Irby thinks Cleye-
land ought to make fair division Of the OF
fees between the Cleveland men and the anti
Cleveland men.
AS We understand, that was exactly Con.
gresham Johnstone's position in the CAM
paign. He thought that the National offices
ought to be equally divided between Alliance.
men and non-Alliancemen. Mr.. Latimer, his
opponent for Congressional honors, thought
that the Alliancemen we're entitled to all the
Offices and he would use all his influence with
the President to have them appointed to Of.
fee. The Alliancemen liked Mr.. Latimer's
promises better than they did Mr.. John
stones, and SO they elected him.
But II happened that the Alliancemen were
disappointed in the defeat Of Mr.. Harrison
for President. Nobody thought Mr. Cleve-
land would be elected.
AS 1t 10, Mr.. Latimer introduced the resolu.
tions denouncing Mr.. Cleveland as a tool of
Wall street. and his influence with the Presi-
dent whom he denounced may not be as great
as he could wish.
Senator Irby was more discreet and did not,
In so pronounced manner, place himself on
record. in the campaign, but is now occupy
ing the identical position which Congressman
Johnstone held in the cs,npaign, and which
liberal spirit brought defeat to him.
A spirit OF intolerance sometimes Is not the
best policy.

Among other astonishing things that the

This put him to thinking and enquiring what

interest. When spring came the lender OF
money went TO the store as usual and bought
goods at credit prices, while his neighbor was
paying cash for his goods with the borrowed
money.
How will this do for National financier !?
II that example doesn't suit, we can present
another:

A first class National financier OF the politi-
cal uind might see the wisdom of lending
money ut eight per cent. while buying goods
on lien, while real good hater of National
Banks can have a patriotic satisfaction OF
owning six per cent. bank stock when they
borrow back a part of their own money at ten
per cent. discount
Liberal minded f1nanciers, with broad
views do the country great good, and the
people owe them q debt of gratitude when
they show in practical way how much they
know of finances az applied to home affairs,
to say nothing Of the National finances.
Their object lessons In finances is on llne OF

but IL takes real good hard sense TO see the
wisdom Of the examples OF private or person

ABBEVILLE FORGING AHEAD.
Business Places Occupied-Others to

Country Toward the Town as Evi.
denced in the Establishment of


Abbeville now seems TO be taking on new
growth. All her business firms are doing
we'll, and there Is constant demand for new
places of business. Every little nook and
corner is being filled, while rents are hrmer
than they have been for years.
No man can tell what changes may take
place after the first Of July in consequence OF
sumo that the east side OF the public square
will then become as popular as the west side,
aud that the stores on that side VIII COMMAND
as good rents as any in town. The probaoili-
ty Is, that every one Of them will be occupied.
Blessings, like misfortunes. seldom come
single handed. Now, whe.. we are about to
get the railroad shops, we are regaining
years, and there is greater life and activity In
every quarter-all are hopeful and buoyant:
And 1T is solid and substantial growth, based
on merit.
cate the Abbeville market as O safe and de-
sirabe one in which TO buy or sell.
The cotton buyers have been paying the
highest prices for cotton. and our merchants
the money which passed over their counters.
We are prepared TO gin an INDEFINITE
amount of cotton. and planters are bringing
IL here from long distances, and this business
will continue to increase from year to year. as
the benefits and advantages Of our market
becomes known.
The oil mill and other buyers of seed have
freely bought all the cotton seed that have
been offered, and hundreds OF people have
taken advantage of the opportunity to buy
hulls and meal at the oil mill. The prejudice
against the hulls is disappearing as the people
find out that they are the best cattle food in
the world, aud bis cheapness commends 1t 10
all.
Among the other good things that have
come to Abbeville OF late is the unanimity
and cordiality with which the people in every
section OF the country contributed TO the es-
tabllsh ment of our new bank.
A new bank was needed, but our own citi-
zens had not the ready cash with which to
open It. The farmers from every section came
to our relief by putting up their money.
But Of all the political or financial work
which the farmers have done, the general
public OF Abbeville has not been more bene-
fitted by anything than by the Farmers
Bank. It has established competition and
furnished the capital with which many per-
sons have been accommodated to the needed
cash.
