Senator lrby is reported to have said that
he was in favor of lynching any colorcd
preacher who gets up and advises the ne
grocs to join tho better element of the
whites in politics. Surely the Senator did
not say this. 1t surely cannot be that Sen.
at"r 1rby is of the opinion that the worst
element Of the whites must rule the State,
despite the better element of the whites.
the colorcd element or any other element.
We would think it commcndablc in the nc
gro TO JOIN himself to the best element lie
could find We do not advocate them
joining the best element or any clement to
give them power, but If they wish to join
the better element OF the whites In politics
and will be subjected by them we sec no
harm.

Pelham Factory has been paving taxes
on slO1, 1000 worth OF property up to this
year. The board of equalization for Green
vile county last week increased the assess
mcnt of this factory $4,000, making 1t
pay taxes now on $4,000. 1t docs not
look much like the people of South Caro-
lima want Capitalists TO como here aud in
vest their money. Let every man who
reads this think for moment and see how
many farmers it would take for their as
stssmcnts to reach $4,000. Go to the
Auditors books in this or any other county
and begin with any letter and take the
names as you como to them putting their
assessments down until you have reached
$4,000 and see how many men or names
you have.
In order to encourage manufacturing in.
dust ries and enterprises we must treat then,
like other people are treated. There arc
very few people In this country that would
take twice as much for their property al
they return it to the Auditor for, and some
who would not take four times as much.

DHSFIiNSARY 'EE:3IPLAERS.

The funniest thing VIC ever remember
nearing is for temperance people to be in
in'or Oh saloons. At meeting of the w.
w. 1. I. at Immonsvillc last week arcso.
.u''''l was offered opposing the dlspcnsary.
mrs. Chapln, tho president, and Mrs. Trax-
ier' inc secretary and treasurer, smothered
ne resolutions, would not put them to a vote
ot''ne mcmbcrs CT The convention for fear
'hey would pass. BY this action the
president aTd' secretary of the Womap's
christian Temperance Union of South Car
o'ina made themselves gagcrs. These two
i"o'es are IN favor of the dspcnsary while
majority OF the members are opposed to
II ana wanted to vote" against it. Mrs
ChaplE has been preaching total obstinouco
io' many years, and how she could be the
iteSoch' OF temperance organization ond
aa'oca'e the dispcnsary is more than wc
can understand.
Mrs' Iraxlcr Is the wife Of Liouor Cam
missioner Traxlcr of South corolir, ,,,'n
Is drawing salary of 81 800 venr ond
IL Is perfectly natural that sho sbo,,ld ~. ~
favor of the dispcnsary.
temperance Is quite different ,hinc :,
what VIC thought it was. If person 10 i,
favor OF the dispensary they arc in favor o
patronizing 1t. If every one who do or Il,
not patronizc them are Temperance peon,e
then every body are Temperance people
This reasoning is the natural deduction q
Mrs. Chapin's action.

An a ncciInG Death.

Several months ago, Dcrinda, the
fifteen year old daughter of Mr.. w.
NJ. Powell, of the Fruit Hill section,
was bitten By dog, supposed to be
mad, while on her way to school. She
was taken to Georgia where the mad
stone was applied, and rs the stone
would moi stick to the wound it was
supposed that there was no likelihood
of her taking that dread disease, hy-
drophobin. She returned to her
home seemingly we'll, and playmates
and friends studiously y refrained from
all illusions to her misfortune. On
Monday week she complained of feel
ing badly, but went to school. On
Tuesday she WAS taken with violent
commissions, and sank rapidly, dying
on Thursday with some symptoms of
tho terrible disease. When they
brought her water to drink she would
say, "Dont bring me water! You
know l can't drink it," In moments
of consciousness she seemed aware Of
the approach of death, saying that
her little deceased sister WAS sitting
near her waiting to so with her to
heaven, and that her grandfather
whose picture hung on tho wall op-
Posite her bed, kept bcckoning her to
come. With rare thoughtful
sho begged the members of her fnm
lily to keep away from her lest she
should hurt them. 1t WAS terrible,
pitiful fate for this child. and an ag.
onizingexperience for afflicted parents

A gentleman in another State said
to the writer recently "My God,
man! do you know that all over the
country your State has become the
byword of every one; and yet L be-
licve the future is far more to be fear
ed than the present. [ tell you, SIR,

Carolina during tho Senutorship cam

Gagged with hycnas. It is going to be

wild and grouDdless dread, but is it
not appalling to find that such n
thought exists and that it believes
what it thinks? And can we posi-
b'y find it in us to laugh at so grim
a,forecast even if it he but a night

indigestion troubles aud they are sick. Then 1t is
that they should take the remedy that makes peo-
pie well; for Pane's celery compound supplies
the system with nerve and brain food. and sustans
the vital force and energy 1t takes away the
drowsiness and nervous headache which result
from protracted work coupled with anxiety.
Pane's celery compound lays the foundation Of
health by making sound sleep possible. 1t soothes
and quiets the nerves when they are working con-
fusedly. 1t tones up the digestive organs.
One of the most enterprising expressmen in Bos-
ton, Mr.. III. Seaver Of 50 Warren street, Roxbury,
Mass, who owns express business running
from Boston to Roxbury and the Highlands, says:
'On the recommendation Of friend got some of
Pane's celery compound for my family. We have
used II a family medicine, and in every case 1t
has proved cure. We will use il and recommend
il to all as long ii proves to be such all-cu-ing
remedy The friend mentioned iS a commercial
traveller. and was cured of dyspepsia by using
three bottles of Paines celery compound, and felt
in duty bound to recommend it,
In these days Of hot and pouring sun rays all
those who are obliged to labor and who feel the
enervating effects of the summer should take
Paine's celery compound 1t makes people well,
as 1t did in the home Of Mr.. Seaver.

The heavy storm of wind and rain which
passed over this section will prove of much
benefit to vegetation, wells, &C., notwith-
standing the leveling of some fine fruit and
shade trees. Considerable alarm was oc-
casoned to some residents living in the
neighborhood of the railroad station, where
the large windmill of Cranshaw 4 Co. be-
came unmanageable, and, with it's rapid
revolutions. caused a noise like the crashing

covered and fear of danger subdued.
