tobacco barns destroyed this season by ire.
Many were lost this way the past two sea
sons but experience has made all careful
Varnville Enterprise: Varnville is as fine
market for farm products as there is any
where to her population. Poultry, eggs, but
ter and fruit always command nigh price

ers fully realize the fact,
Every person who owns plot of land and
certainly all who own farms ought to grow
grapes. One vine will go a good way and
three or four will supply family. There is
no fruit more wholesome than the grape, and
none more generally popular. The space oc-
cupied Is very triilinR and they viii grow on
any fairly good, well drained soil with very
little care, though, Of course they respond to
proper cultivation. With all 5hese advan-
taRes 1t is remarkable the number Of houses
that are without them.
Columbia Register: The clearing house
certificates were readily received by the cit
liens Of Columbia, and they did all in their
power TO assist the banks in putting them
into circulation. 1t was reported that the
certificates would not be received in payment
of New y DIRK exchange. The merchants were
alarmed, for they would ina the certificates
comparatively worthless il they could not te
so used. The clearing house association
promptly took action to knock this rumor
into the middle Of several years from now.

ceived letters from Major W. O Sanders and
from the state superintendent of the De
Saussure farm. giving an account of the loss

Columbia Journal: That the calamity
bowler only talks for effect and for seasa-
ton was illustrated by the oft repeated ru-
NOR: "Sullivan's Island is aunihilated. " AS
matteY Of fact no one had heard single word
from there and even in the early telegraphic
messages from Charleston there was not
line from that island Our people have got
ten accustomed to the false alarm OF the Ca
lamity bowler" We always trust in Provi-
dence until definite news is reported We are

News aud Courier: There has been most
encouraging growth of sound money senti-
ment in the south in the last three years de-
spite the fanaticism of Ocala statesmen and
the defamation of demagogueS.
In 1890 So southern representatives
voted for free silver and only 10
against il. In 1898 SO south
ern representatives voted against free
silver and only q in favor of it. This is one
OF the signs Of the times. In taking its stand
for sound money the south is laying the
foundations broad and deep for an era of IN
paralleled prosperity in all its undertakings

seventh anniversary of the great earthquake
which will never be forgotten while there are
living people in this state. Gallant old
Charleston has not suffered this year as she
did then, but the fatal month Of August has
again brought her fearful evil and she is
staggering under a new blow. Now us then,
the warm, loving sympathy of the people of
the country generally and the people of
South Carolina especially, is with her; and
the hope that she viii again rise from ruin
and desolation triumphant, strong and
happy will be very strong, very deep and very
earnest.
