The farmers are giving all their attention
to cotton now.
At this writing the oats and wheat are
needing rain, and the crop in this section
is not very promising.

success, and good order prevailed.
Capt. Armstrong is having Little River
Bridge repaired. We hope he will do
something with Hog Skin Bridge, for 1t

MusSulmans for the South.

NEW YORK, May 28.-It transpires that
Alexander Russell Webb, the United
States Consul, who four years ago en-
braced the religion Of Mohammed and
who represents the Mohammedans in the
United States, has returned to this coun-
try for other reasons than those he has
already stated. Webb states that a large
number of Mohammedans are planning
to emigrate from India to the United
States, and that they will probably form
colonies in several of the Southern States.
For some weeks past Webb has been in
communication With large property hold
ers South, notably in Georgia and Flori-
da. He declares that he is acting under
authority of many of the most promi-
nent and wealthy Mohammedans in
India in obtaining prices on large tracts
of Southern land. He has secured fig
ures on large strips Of land, and has
already reported these prices to syndi-
cate Of Mohammedans who are from
religious and financial motives interested
in the movement. II am in negotiation" !"
he added, "with responsible men for the
purchase of large tracts of land at Jack
sonville, Pensacola and Augusta. and in
Alabama. The sellers understand the
purpose to- which the land will be put,
and say that neighbors will probably offer
no objections whatever. I have SO re-
ported to the syndicate for which 7 am
acting. The rich men in the movement
have already pledged themselves to assist
financially in the purchase Of the land.
That is to say, they will advance money
on long time notes. Americans will not
find the Mohammedans to be beggars or
charity seekers, but on the contrary val
liable workmen in many industries. Our
plans have gone so far as the preparation
OF plans for the laying out Of the towns
and farms. I have secured 70: such pur-
poses an option of twenty-five thousand
acres in Georgia and on seven or eight
other tracts equally as large"

Long Bicycle Trips.

Two young men were in the city Fri
day who had just made long and very
creditable bicycle run on Colum bia
wheels. They were Graves l.. knight,
son of DR.. S. S. knight, OF Fountain Inn,
and A. E. Ethedge. They left Granite
Vile, where they live at 10 o'clock We'd
nesday morning and reached Fountain
Inn at o'clock Thursday afternoon. The
distance was l30 miles. They averaged
"a miles per day of ten hours, which is
remarkably good travelling considering 8
that they had to take the roads as they
came and much of tho route was through
a sandy country while on reaching the
Piedmont section some very high and
and steep clay hills were encountered.
A party Of young men came in Sunday
forenoon from Clifton, Spartanburg coun-
ty, having made the run, which is about
fifty miles in four hours.
Yesterday morning early rather di-
lapidated wheelman on tired-looking
wheel passed through here at full speed

Sunday at the Worlds Fair.

WORLDS FAIR GROUNDS, CHICAGO,
May 28.-One hundred and twenty-five
thousand people after a week Of toll,
came to the Worlds Fair grounds to-
day, and with souls freed from care,
drank in inspiring music and feasted
their eyes upon the artistic and natural
beauties of tho White City, while their
minds were improved by studying works
OF genius an industry. 1t was the first
open Sunday, and it was success. The
sun was but two hours old when the
people began to come into the grounds.
All modes of transportation brought
their quotas, and from the steam boat
piers and the railroads came long lines
of people.
But the masses did hot begin to arrive
until the afternoon. Beginning about
o'clock the multitude focked into the
grounds at every gate and by o'clock
10000 people were inside the inclosure.
People kept on coming the entire after
noon and overfowed the midway plsis-
ance, whose every show was crowded,
until the attendance mark had been ele-
vated to 100000. After dark k the grounds
were lit up and this, together with other
features of illumination, attracted still
more, and when the crowds were about
ready TO go nome conservative oStiIuate
placed their number for the day and
evening at 125,O00.
It was an orderly, well-dressed crowd,
which evidently was of the opinion that
it had already been kept away from its
property altogether too long, and they
took possession in the name Of "toilers'
day." The Sunday opening was trown-
ed upon, however, in the north end Of
the park where the American State build
ings are grouped to suggest happy and
united family. The doors of fifteen State
and Territorial buildings was locke for
this day only, and visitors were informed
to that effect by card. Machinery hall
was remarkably quiet place. Two or
three high speed and but one big engine
were all that ran during the day to
furnish the power necessary to run the
Fair, and their hum could scarcely be
heard one hundred feet away.
The Government buildings were also
closed. The fine arts building held the
greatest multitude. even the saloon and
foyers being jammed with the quiet, or
derly crowd Of picture lovers.
Paid admissions to the Fair grounds
to-day number $50, ,180.

The Blacklist Smashed.

WASHINGTON, May 27.-Governo Till
mans blacklist was shattered all to
pieces to-day by the appointment of
Robert w. Harris, as postmaster at
Union.
Mr.. Harris, it will be remembered
was one Of the Tillmanite delegates to
the National Democratic Convention,
presumably Hill man, but to the sur
prise and chagrin of his associates, he,
with Mr. Jervey, of Charleston, voted for
Mr.. Cleveland. For this act of disloy-
atty to the dominant clement In South
Carolina, Mr.. Harris was "black-listed"
at Washington by Governor Tillman and
Senator Irby. He was the man. above
all others, whom Irby has been fighting
here.
The appointment is regarded by South
Carolinians here as the signal Of Senator
Buffers success and shows pretty clearly
how the patronage is going. The appoint
ment was predicted several weeks ago in
this correspondence.
Ben Perry sent the following telegram
this evening to Irby, to whom he does not
speak:
"Your friend, R. w. Harris, was ap-
Come and assist me-"
Ir5y is fighting Perry as hard as he
fought Harris.
The Internal Revenue Collectorship

Appalling Floods In Louisiana.

VICKsBURG, MISS, May 29.-There are
at least one thousand homeless and hun
CRY people in East Carroll, Morehouse
and West Carroll and Madison parishes,
Louisiana, and the sufferings and priva.
tions they are undergoing is appalling.
With the exception of few small eleva-
tions, the whole of the northeastern por-
tion of the State is under water.
Forty.four Negroes were rescued from
perilous position near Swan lake, East
Carroll parish, Sunday night. They were
without food four days.
Two children died Friday from expo
sure. Their bodies were wrapped in
blankets and thrown into the raging
waters, there being no dry ground In
which to bury them, and no implements
with which to dig graves.
An old hermit was rescued four miles
from Swan lake, who had been without
food three days. When found, he was
sitting at the side OF his house, munching
meat from the bones of his dog which he
had been compelled to kill. Governor
Foster sent all the tents at his command
to the sufferers at Lake Providence.
MEMPHIS, TENN, May 29.-The heav-
lest rain fall in the recollection of the
oldest inhabitants occurred throughout
Tennessee, Mississippi, Arkansas and
Louisiana Saturday night and yesterday.

culable damage has been done to plan

The Princess Enlalie, Of Spain, who is
ltraWltng In this country, attended SER
fYics in st. Patrick's Cathedral in New
York last Sabbath. The priest, Father
EEaWllle, made the following remarks
Ednrfng the course Of his sermon, which
were doubtless intended to crafty the
xeiiRions vanity Of his royal visitor /:
I4Thn Catholic Church is more strongly
FOUNDED In this country than in any in
the Forld. Indeed, in no part OF the
Iworl isit stronger, more energetic and
lmouEpowerfnl in Its influences on the
hears Of the people than it is in the
SUnitsd States, and indeed in the whole
continent Of America" We prefer to
believe the statement Of DR.. Leonard w.
Baker, In the Forum, as to Romish influ-
senee in this country. He says: zone
hnndred and fifty years ago, the CONT
aent Of North America, except narrow
and interrupted strip Of the Atlantic sea-
hoard, was exclusively Roman Catholic,
mot BY pretension merely, but to an i'm
portante1tent, by actual occupation. How
sisit to-day? The Roman Catholics have
acquired control over two great cities.
Boston and New York, and they have
siost the continent, except what remnant
sof dominion they still precariously hold
An Mexico and lower Canada" The pub
slic schools Of America, taught by Amer
sicans, are great force TO prevent the
growth Of Romish influence in this
broad land.

More Blacklisting.

Blncklisting seems to be fashion now.
It is q new development of our new poll
tics. We have heard from the stump
much talk OF the prescription in which
the sold ring" and the "aristocracy"
used to engage. Lieutenant Governor
Gary has frequently become quite pathet-
ic in his references to the chance every
body was to have under the new admin
istralion and dispensation and in his
recitations of his nice little pieces telling
of tho time when every man would stand
exactly on his own merits without him
dranse from the powers that be.
Yet we have blacklisting on all sides
"referm" holders of reform jobs sending
in secret rolls of persons to be boycotted
and shut out. Governor Tillman and
Senator Irby sent in their little lists to
Cleveland; now we get news from An
derson that Congressman Latimer, he
whose righteous indignation became 80
hot at the idea that he had been blacklist
ed in the postmaster generals Office, has
gone into little blacklisting act on his
own account.
Tha victim, as we are informed, is j.
T. Ashley Of Anderson. He is an ex-
Confederate, lost his right arm in service
and has been straight Democrat and
strong Tillman man. He wanted to be
one Of the County Board Of Control and
as we understand the case, was recon-
mended by the delegation but he was
rejected and the place was given to
another man.
His friends believe that be was black
listed. and that Representative Latimer
had hand in it, aud that his offence con-
sisted in the fact that he happens to be a
brother of Joshua Ashley, representative
from Anderson County and father of the
factory labor bill.
Joshua Ashley thinks his picture has
been turned to the wall and his brother
punished because he has tried to be
sure enough reformer. AS will be re-
mem bered, when he was in the legisla-
ture ne was constantly insisting on doing
something for the interests Of the people
TO reduce taxation aud the number OF
Office holders. He wouldn't keep quiet,
wouldn't accept the idea that he was there
Just to obey orders and do as be was
told.
Furthermore, it is alleged that Con-
gresham Latimer, finding the prospects
of controlling much Federal patronage
rather dim, aspires to boss what there is
left OF local and State pap, most of 1t dis
penssry appointments, and wanted to
work not only his little blacklist but the
appointment of friend of his named
Harr;s-not any relation to the historic
Mrs. Harris who was a mystery in the
story of Sarah Camp, but well known
and thoroughly alive citizen of Anderson
County.-G GreenUttle News.

MILLIONS SAVED TO THE PEOPLE.

Secretary Hoke Smith, of the Interior
Department, 80 late dispatches announce,
has just rendered decision on the PEN
sion laws that will save the government
SIS, 900, 900 or $40, 900 that would have
been paid to fraudulent pensioners dur
ing tbs year.
The decision was brought about by
consideration of the case of a pensioner
who drew a bounty from the public
treasury because of slight deafness, but
was of sound body and good health.
Under this decision Of Secretary Smiths
only those will receive pensions whose
physical disability will prevent them
earning support by manual labor.
The Secretary Is right, altogether right.
Every step that he makes looking to the
suppression of the enormous pension
steal saddled on the country by the cor
rpt and faithless Republican party will
bs right, and will be upheld by the
honest people of the whole country.
We hope the Secretary will persevere
in the good work Of reform until he saves
ut least 500, 600, 600 to the country every
year.
Let the able bodied fellows work for an
honeetliving or starve.
Here's how the steal has grown in the
last few years under the "srand old
party" SO splendidly repudiated by the
people last fall:
Member of pensioners on the roll June
80, 1859, 4se,725.
Number of pensioners on the roll June
80, 1891, 676, increase in two years,
1856, 1876.
Number of pensioners on tho roll April
Is, 1898, $50, OOO-increase in less than two
yea7s, 2s3,s4o.
And Sizes, ,OoO, 900 wac appropriated by
the last Congress to pay this thievish
horde of pensioners for 1893
Happy are we that the country is at
last in the hands of its friends, the Demo-
Gratis. May the party so triumphantly
called to power by the peopia last fall
ever remember the burning words:
"Who saves his country saves all
things, and all things saved will bless
him; who lets his country die let's all
things die, and all things dying, curse
him.
