There is no medicine so often
needed in every home and so admira-
bly, adapted to the purposes for which
it is intended, as Chamberlain's Pain
Balm. Hardly a week passes but
some member Of the family has need
of it. A toothache or headache may
be cured by it. A touch Of rheuma-
tism or neuralgia quieted. The Sc
we're pain of burn or scald promptly
relieved and the sore healed in much
less time than when medicine has to
be sent for. A sprain may be prompt
ly treated before Inflammation sets IN,
which insures a cure in about one
third of the time otherwise required.
Cuts and bruises should receive imme-
diate treatment before the parts be-
come swollen, which can only be done
when Pain Balm is kept at hand. A
sore throat may be cured before it be-
comes serious. A troublesome corn
may be removed by applying it twice a
day for week or two. A lame back
may be cured and several days of val
liable time saved or pain in the side
or chest relieved without paying q
doctor bill. Procure so cent bottle
at once and you Will neTsr regret it,

when men read and think for themselves,
all that stuff about ''selling goods cheaper

the writer and the firm back Of it to the
contempt Of all right-thinking people. The
man who has something to offer, and then
tells the folks about in q plain, business
way, Is the man who .'gets there" and
getting there, stands.
Lots of people handle Paint. Some
handle one kind, some another, but they
all realize, IL they have any business sense
atall that in order 10 make that business
apermanent success it is absolutely neces-

In thisconnection we call attention. to
The fact that crops are about laid by, time

Under this proposed provision in 3hc
new Constitution ten white men will
be deprived of their vote in upper
Carolina where it is taken from one in
che black belt.
The farmers Of Spartanburs County
do not want any new Constitution
unless it is submitted to themfor rati
fication or rejection, as they will show
by their votes on the 9th day Of No
yember next. They are not willing
TO place their own political liberty and
their future, as we'll as the rights Of
their children, in the keeping of six
men without the right Of appeal, it
matters not who they be. The de-
mand to first see the new Constitu-
tion, so that they can tell whether or
not they like it. And just here we
will state that our Reform party, now
in complete control of the Govern
ment, cannot afford to endorse such a
concentration of power and trample
under foot the fundamental principles
of our organization as to create new
Constitution for South Carolina, and
force the people to accept it whether
they want to or not. 1t will disrupt
and destroy our great movement to
attempt such a thing, for it would
belle every pledge and pretention we
have made. The Reform party is the
party Of the poor and uneducated, and
to preserve unto them their ballot
secure and intact should be our great
est care.
We would like for the advocates of
a Constitutional Convention to use
our columns to give their reasons and
refute the arguments we have made.
If they can do this we are ready to
change tomorrow. We want for our
people all the light they can get on
this subject, for it is the most impor-
tant issue that has ever confronted
South Carolina.
Why not, as compromise, let the
Legislature that meets in December
frame new bill called a Constitu-
tional Convention, and requiring that
lU Ue SuUlllGGcu w Guc pCOplC 1ul ldGl-
fcation or rejection Within ninety
days time vote can be had on it and
the Headlight will agree to support it.
But we are not willing to trust the
suffrage of our people to few men,
but shall insist that every voter read
that Constitution for himself, and
then cast his ballot for acceptance or
rejection. There are about three
white men registered in our State to
one negro, and there is no danger of
the blacks defeating the Convention.
Even the Ants want the Constitu
tion changed, SO their papers say, and
if an acceptable instrument is framed
they will support it.
We are not opposed to a .Constitu-
tional Convention, but we are too true
Reformer, and love our people too
we'll, to see the fundamental laws Of
our State changed, and the suffrage Of
honest white men imperilled, without
raising our voice in protest.

Deafness cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion OF the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf,
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafnest is caused by an
inhamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is infamed you have0a rum,
bling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, Deafness is
the result, and unless the inaamuna-
ton can be taken out and this tube re-
stored to its normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten arc caused by catar.h,
which is nothing but an inaamed con-
dition of the mucous surfaces.

tion. We are unwilling that free-born
white American citizens shall become
dependent upon any man or political
faction of men to be allowed to vote.
The Constitution of the United States
gives him the ballot, and he should be
permitted to exercise this right and
power without bein" beholden to any
man, or the violator of law. It is an
honor and proud privilege to cast
your ballot as the law directs ; but it
is degradation to an honest man to
have to evade the laws of his State, or
secure the connivance of some one
else, before he can vote And it is
argued that only few white men will
be deprived of their suffrage under an
educational qualification. While this
is not true, for it will affect thousands
of voters in South Carolina, and every
man of them a true Reformer, even
admitting that there is only one white
man in our State but can read and
write Now, is not this one man s
ballot as dear to him as the vote of a
Governor or Congressman is to that
Governor or Congressman And is it
not robbery to deprive him of that
ballot and without permitting him to
say whether or not he is willing to
make the sacrifice ?. If our Reform
Movement must be perpctuated by
such acts of injustice then it should
60 down.
And another reason that we oppose
any educational or property qualifca-
tion to suffrage. The upper counties
of South Carolina are the white belt,
and in this section do you find many
poor and unlettered men. Under the
new Democratic Constitution Of our
State every white voter vii! be given
an opportunity to cast his ballot for
the candidates of his choice. Now
when we make these determinations
we simply weaken our own political
strength to enhance the power OF the
middle aad lower tiers Of counties,

A Citiz"n of GreenyIlle Drowned.

GREENV1LLE, 5. w., October 23.-
A telegram received here to-day from
Capt. 0. P, Mills, Of this city, dated
at Brevard, N. c., brought the news
that T. G. Cover, Of this city, was
drowned his morning while bathing in
the French Broad River.
Mr.. Cover was 73 years old, but
a man of remarkable vigor Of body and
mind. He owned beautiful place in
the French Broad Valley. His home
ran down to the river and he was pas
sionately devoted to swimming, having
often remarked that the water could not
get too cold for him. He went from
here to his summer place last Mon
day, accompanied by Capt. Mills.
Probably he left Capt. Mills at the
house and went to the river for final
plunge, as he was to have returned
here tomorrow. 1t is known he went
alone and the theory was that he was
taken with cramp. The body was re-
covered.
A. G.. Cover, ason of the deceased,
started from here over the mountains
this afternoon carrying a caskct and
an undertaken.
The deceased was one of the most
prominent men of this city. Green
Vile is filled with monuments Of his
public spirit and energy, and he prob
ably did more to build and develop
the city than any other one man. He
was native of Maine, but came here
ffty-odd years ago. He was the lead
or in establishing the Greenville coach
factory, built the Main street bridge
over Reedy River, established the
street car line and city ware house,
and purchased land for Springwood
cemetery, was leader in building the
beautiful Washington Presbyterian
Church and creating the system OF
graded schools. In fact, there is
hardly an improvement or enterprise
in the city in which he did not have a
prominent and active part.
He was a volunteer in the Confed-
crate army and remained in service
throughout the war. He was aide on
the staff of Gen. S. S. Crittenden, of
the United Confederate Veterans. At
the time of his death he was a mem
bcr of three firms, actively in business
here, besides being president of the
Greenville Street Railway and Ware
House Company, actively interested
in lime works at Gaffney City and
having other enterprises in operation.
He owned and rented out more than
one hundred houses in this city. His
estate will probably realize from $780,
900 to SIS, 900, and he is thought to
have carried large life insurance.
Two policies, already known, amount
to 5000. He was an elder in the
Presbyterian Church. His widow and
seven children survive him. Super
intendent Crosswcll, Of the Southern
Express Company, and Capt. 0. ?.
Mills, president of the Greenville
Fertilizer Works, married his daugh.
tcrs, and Frank Hammond president OF
the Peoples Bank, Of this city, is his
nephew.
The body will be brought over the
mountains by private conveyance and
buried here. News of the accident
caused profound sensation and uni
versal sorrow here. Mrs. Cover is a
cousin of Governor Tillman.

arrived in this country with orders for
tickets for western points on the defunct

Company Of New York cannot, in Justice
TO themselves and the steamship companies,

number of immigrants have recently ar

found TO be unable 10 provide food and
shelter for themselves they are to be sap
piled by the officials at Ellis Island under
