Body and Soul.

Men have bodies as well as souls.
These bodies and these souls are to be
saved or lost. We often forget this in
our ministratiOns and thus make q
serious mistake. The body Is divine
creation as well as the soul. AS such
it receives our Fathers protection and
care. God has joined the two together,
and what He has joined together, NO
man should put asunder. Our Lord
has taught us in His inimltable prayer
that we are always 70 remember the
body as we'll az the soul. In his public
ministrations He was very particular
to remember the wants of the body.
Not unfrequently He performed mira
cles to express His thoughts and feel
ings in the matter. 1t is even remark. {.
able to notice how many Of the mira
cles performed by Himself or His Apos-
Ties had reference to the body. As
Christians we should remember all
these things and bestow that attention
upon the body which its necessities
require. This is high and religious
duty. True religion is practical. very
practical. 1t neglects no interest,
cares for every want of the whole
being, looks to the present and future.
In our dealings with others-particu-
larry in what are termed our charities
I'VE should never forget this. When
bread is needed let US give bread and
and not stone. When clothing and
shelter are required let us provide these;
In a word, let US remember that soul
and body always 90 together and
should receive such attention ~ they
need.

DR.. Sampson Pope.

DR.. Pope gives notice that we will disregard
the action Of the nominating convention, and
we presume the people later on will give him
notice that they will disregard his action In
running. He will run as an Independent
Candidate for the office of Governor. He asks
that delegates go into the field in every coun.
ty, and seek election in his interest.
In Abbeville county the Doctor received
only four votes. He may be able TO find eight
others, who might support him, but we think
1t doubtful If twelve men in Abbeville county
would do so foolish thing as to run for elec-
ton as delegates to the convention in his in
terest.
II the Doctor is expecting to receive the
votes OF the Ants, we think he will be dis
appointed. According to his own speeches,
he is just as dyed-in-the-wool Reformer as
anybody. and as between Reformers the Ants
care very little. They are all about the same,
as far as the Ants are concerned.
DR.. Pope had better withdraw from the
race. Even If all the Ants voted for him, he
would still lack many votes.

Let Another Town Have 1t.

The patriotic little town Of Aiken sought
out an injunction to close the dispensary In
that place, and Judge Aldrich granted the
prayer OF the complainant.
That Is all right. II Aiken and the learned
Judge prefer blind tigers to the dispepsary
they ought to be beaccommodated-temporarily'
at least
But under the circumstances, It might be
wen to establish dispensary in some other
town in the county. II Montmorenci wants
1t, why not establish IL there?
The days OF the bar.rooms are numbered In
South Carolina. It is evident that great
majority Of the people favor the dispensary
plan OF dealing with the liquor question, and
IL isn't for Judges and anarchists to say that
the people shall not rule. "
It is to be hoped that the reorganized gu
preme Court may make an early deliverance
ON the subject. and whatever their opinion
may be 1t is earnestly desired that they may

lish on an unofending public. Let them

The New County.

Abbeville acts openly and above board as
she expects Greenwood to do.
Abbeville has no apology to offer for vet
ing against the advocates Of the new county.
Abbeville does not expect Greenwood to
vote for we'll known opponents Of the new
county.
Then we have plain open and shut game.
With all the facts clearly and distinctly
stated, where is there any room for charging
anybody with making states.
Each side is simply acting in self'defence'
or In furtherance Of their own interests.
Both sides are acting openly and fairly, Ike
self-respecting freemen ought to do-and each
and every individual Is looking after the In
terests Of the county as he sees 1t. and nobody
should believe for one moment that his ad-
versary is actuated by motives which are
less patriotic than those by which he is
prompted.
The division of the county is public ques-
ton about which equally honorable gentle
men may differ.

Don't Sulk.

We have heard It said that the Antis would
not 60 to the polls next Tuesday. but we hope
that there is error in the report.
As one star differeth in glory from another
star. 90 that doth one Reformer differ from
another Reformer. The Press and Banner e1-
poets to vote, and we are convinced that all
other Ants might do the same.
The primary next Tuesday is the primary
OF the whole party, and we conceive it to be
the patriotic duty Of every Democrat to 90 To
the polls and cast his vote in the interest OF
all Abbevills county. There is strong and a
determined effort on the part OF some OF our
citizens to dismember the old county, and
men are actively advocating this injurious
doctrine from the stump. and seeking election
because Of their advocacy OF a movement
which must be Injurious to the great mass OF
the people, while being advantageous to only
q few.

Gov. Ben Disappointed Them.
Elberton Star.

1t was lively crowd that went from Elber-
ton on last Wednesday To Abbeville. $. C.,
between South Cardinals ablest orators
Governor Ben Tillman and General Butler,
candidates for the United States senate.
The Elberton crowd was composed OF about
500 democrats OF the county, and about 70 or
100 populists.
1t was great concourse Of people that met
Governor Tillinan TO hear him speak. Gov
ernor Tillman has south Caroiins OIL nss IN Ibis ms
as easily as an emperor. He has tenacity and
will power that SO characterized Napoleon
Bonaparte or Cicero. BY his actions as gov
ernor OF the state, Tillman has had much 10
contend with and his name has become a
household word throughout this broad land
It is q synonym OF good or bad, as the case
may be, for those who advocate his policy and
Let his cause be as 1t will or may, and let
those censure him that may. but II must be
admitted that Tillman Is q wonderful man

that he has the destiny Of his state In his

ing President Cleveland, congress and the
senate, be proceeded to do up Tom Watson
and the third party generally, and Re succeed
ed admirably.
Now here comes the funny part:
The third party went over hoping 10 get
sympathy from Governor Ben, but 10 and
behold! he scored them from A to lizard.
Governor Ben Is a democrat and he has no
patience with such party or any respect ior
It. He said that Bull of the Woods Tom
Watson had gone astray-had fallen In the
ditch on his back aud broken his neck and
all of the third partymen were going TO
hell.
The Elbert democrats were jubllant and the
third party men were certainly sick and
Butler made a very good speech, but the
crowd was for Tillman.
All in all IL was big day for Carolina
politics. The Elberton democrats came back
full of mirth. The third party people cannot
get any sympathy from the people OF Carolina
as those chivslrous people over there are not
acquainted with and would not advocate
such principles as are embodied In the popu-
lists platform. They believe In democracy
and hold to its principles.
Success to old South Carolina and her
democracy. May she ever wave her banner
over all that is true in principle and for her
people and forever remain blessing 70 this
glorious Union. W. HI. Kerlen.

God has plans for every child OF

Christianity does not propose to
make man better than his nelghbor
but it proposes to make him better

If tin pals and pans are set out in

Molds should be rinsed in cold water
before using, and to remove creams
and jellies easily they should be dipped
in hot water for few moments.
A simple way to remove spots from

then press u hot iron over it. Two or

IL ft the Greatest Good to the Great.
est Number:

IL it the Greatest Good to the Great.
est Number:
A joint resolution has already passed tne
Legislature providing for a Constitutlonai
Convention.
That convention should take systematic ac-
ton upon the matter of smaller counties
The state should be dealt with by skillful
civil engineer as whole.
II should be required Of such engineer 10
take the whole area of the State and SUD
divide It into counties Of the required size,
say 400 square miles each, making them as
shapely and symmetrical as possible. Due
regard should be paid to vested Interests,
court houses and other public buildings
should be preserved as far as possible TO do so.
II is not right to tear down these or to disre'
gard the rights of those who have invested
their means under state Of things Whlch
they had the right to believe was permanent.
II ambitious communities are desirous OF
having new counties, there can be no reason
against such, provided the rights of others are
not wholly disregarded. We do not know
how many such the,e are in the State, but we
do know that our friends at Greenwood are
very insistent upon the scheme Of divid-
ing this county. II any good purpose is TO De
effected by 1t, and the scheme proposed
should work ont the greatest good to the
greatest number there should be no opposi-
ton to It. The main purposes to be accom-
plished by diminishing the size Of counties
We assume to be symmetry OF shape and the
convenience of their Inhabitants, proximity
to the court house should be certainly one OF
the objects to be attained. The matter Of ex.
pense in public buildings and public offices,
&C., is manifestly against the scheme.
Now, We understand that one OF the pro-
posed lines Of the new county Of Greenwood
will extend to point at or near Higgins Fer
~ ON the Saluda River, which Is between
thirty and forty miles from the proposed new
county seat.
A. at present formed the remotest resident
from Abbevtlle Court House lives about TWEEN
ty.two miles only.
II therefore by subdivision any citizen is
compelled to travel nearly twice as far as al
present the very object to be accomplished by
the division Is not only defeated but the bur-
den of Inconvenience is nearly doubled, TO say
nothing OF increased taxes, DC.
II the subdivision Is made upon the pro-
posed lines and q few other counties la the
State should be mutilated in like manner !,
will be simply impossible to make change
in the size of the counties by any general sys,
venience. These objects as we have said are
paramount to all others and should be main.
taiped by all means.

The Situation.

The nominations for Governor and Lieuten.
ant Governor have been made, and, notwith.
standing the predictions to the contrary, the
ranks haye closed up, and peace seems to
reign supreme. There is no apparent dissat-
isfactlon in the Tillman ranks, though II is
evident that the more moderate men Will
likely get an inning in the next campaign
and the result may be that stronger delega'
tions may be sent to the Legislature.
AS far as we can see. there is not the slight
est sign of gain of strength on the part OF the
Antis.
