We BE Brethren.

1t seems that the reign of the disturber ol
peace Is about over in South Carolina. II we
understand the different reports Of the recent
political meetings throughout the State there
Is a strong desire on the part OF the people 10
get together.
The kickers In Columbia utterly failed to
keep up the division, and the Conservatives
determined to give the Reformers two dele
gates to the Convention. Greenville seems
disposed to have peace, and Charleston has
rubbed Oft her war paint.
The general result has been a surprise to
the Press and Banner, and shows that we are
much nearer an era Of peace than at any time
since 1890.
The Conservative element, as a rule, while
opposed 10 Ti.lman, has been true TO the DEM
ocratic party, and this accounts Tor the re-
union Of the party.
OF course in saying this we do not mean TO
urge that there are not exceptional instances
where members of the Conservative party
would gladly leave the Democratic party, II
the negroes had sufficien: power to elect them
TO Office. We would not deny that there are
extreme Haskellites who will not be recon
clled, but the smalness of their numbers Will
hencefOrth prevent their being even disturb
ing factors in politics. Even If they should
declare themsemselves too good and too pure
TO associate with respectable white people
who differ from them in politics, their action
need give nobody moments consideration
or an hours uneasiness one way or the other
It seems now that the Democratic party Is
again reunited, and that no known power
can prevail against II.

SOME HARD SENSE.
The Newspaper The Proper Advertis.
ing Medium.


ing Medium.
A Washington piano house ia just
now using considerable space in the
local papers to advertise voting con-
test. The most popular school teacher
in Washington Is to be presented with
q free trip to, Europe, lasting thirty
days. The ticket to cover all transpO-
tatioD charges, hotel bills, carriage
drives, etc, from Washington to Eu-
rope aud back again.
This may be very good sch heme,
but doubt it. 1t is hardly what ]
would call legitimate advertising. A
trip to Europe and the most popular
school teacher have nothing on earth
to do with the desirabilaty of the pla-
nos. 1t will be talked about, more or
less, and in so much, is advertising,
but I doubt very much if it will result
in any very great good. l would very
much rather take the money that this
trip costs and use it in straight news
paper advertising.
Advertising. properly considered,
and in its strongest sense, IS merely
telling people what and where ana
why-why they
should buy some particular thing.
Advertising isn't good unless it accom-
plishes this, and convinces u greater or
less number of people that the advertis'
er and thing advertised are just exact
ly what they have been looking for.
A trip to Europe doesn't prove any
thing. 1t has nothing whatever to DO
with the piano business, and anybody,
from butcher up, might use it with
equal propriety.
I do not believe in scheme advertis-
ing of any kind. In some cases II
may pay. but they are few and far be-
tween: The kind of advertising that
can always be depended on is news
paper advertising. 1t always does
what it is intended to do, if it is prop
erly used. If it ever fails, it is not the
fault of the medium, but the fault OF
the advertiser, or the way he adVer-
tiseS.
The right sort of advertisements in
the newspapers 60 right into the taml-
ly circle, exactly where the dealer
wishes his goods to 60. For the rea-
SOB, if for no other, it is better than
any other possible method for bring
ing business. :
I have had quite a good deal of ex-
perience in managing different out
side schemes for advertising a busi-
ness. and have been able to figure up
the results rather accurately. / have
never yet seen an untaking of this sort
bring back enough money to pay for
itself, either directly or indirectly.
This free European trip will certain.
ly cause more or less talk, but. VIII II
cause the right kind of talk? Will It
carry onefourth the conviction that
straightout, common sense talks in
the newspapers would do? These are
questions on which the piano people
will probably be extensively lntelll-
gent after the contest is over.

Imprisonment for Violation Of the
LiQuOr Law

All OF our readers will be interested in the
account of the arrest and imprisonment OF
William Sheppard for contempt OF court In
selling liquor after he had been enjoined from
doing SO.
Nine-tenths of our people will be glad TO see
that even the liquor element of Columbia
must obey the laws Of the state.
In the cities where The hquor element pre-
vail 1t Is almost impossible to bring offenders
TO justice, and even when brought into court
they are turned loose In the face OF indisputa-
BILE evidence OF their guilt. %.
The law abiding element Of the State, as a
rule, will uphold Judge Townsend, and rejoice
In the fact that the State has some Judges
who are not afraid to do their duty. Having
aligned himself With the law.abiding element
it is TO be hoped that he will pursue his course
unfiinchingly and with vigor.
We have only two elements in this State
the liquor or lawless element and the temper
ance or lava bding element.
Judge Townsend is clearly with the law.
abiding element, and we hope that other cir
cult Judges may be not less firm.
In enforcing the law, the Press and Banner
would suggest; however. that the penalties be
not too severe: We endorse the arrest and
Imprisonment Of any violator of the law, yet
we do not wish to see unmerciful punishment
inflicted.

THE SHEPPARD CASE.
An Appeal to be Taken to the United States
Courts.
Columbia Register.

Sheppard, the blind tiger dealer. Judged as
being in contempt by Judge Townsend ana
sent to the tiary for eight months. Is
still in the hospital of thai institution. Su-
perintendent Neal says that as soon as he
gets out of the hospital he will be put In
stripes like any othe convict.
Mr. John McMaster, attorney for SHEPPARD,
intends to take the case 10 the United States
Court on various grounds. al alleging that Shtp-
pard had been Imprisoned contrary TO the
Constitution Of the United States. Among
the points principally relied upon is that
Sheppard had been placed in the penltentiary
when he had not had q trial by jury.
1t was learned yesterday that number Of
men in Columbia, are interested in getting
Sheppard out of Jail because some time they
might be in the same fix, had determined 10
take up subscription and pay the expenses.
Mr.. McMaSter has raised another point In
the case IN that the order Of arrest did not
pass through the Clerk of Court to the Sh eritf.
who, be claims was the only man who could
direct any man 10 serve the warrant. This
may or not be made one of the grounds OF ap-
peal. There are a number ofiDteresting legal
questions In the case, which may be decided
in the course of human, events, but Judging
from recent experience most OF the people
now living will he dead when the decision Is
rendered, Tor if the flaws delays" were ever
eXemplifed they have been in eveTyth ing d.
rectly or indirectly connected with the Dis
penSary.

A Tittie 'rOsiet.

"While going to the penitentiary Sheppard
said to Chief Daily that he woul have sur
rendered TO him or to Sheriff Cathcart, but ne
never would surrender to conStableS until
he was compelled to."-The Register
This statement would Indicate that Shep-
pard resisted arrest. It matters not who fired
the first shot. The presumption is, that Shep-
pard being iucensed at the indignlty offered
by the State constabes in proposing TO ar
rest him, made effort TO resist arrest.
The Press and Banner Is glad that no serious
damage resulted from the shooting
We would suggest that Governor Evans en-
poy Chesterieldian diplomat to interview
members OF the lawless liquor element and
ascertain from them III advance the manner
of arrest that viii! be most in con formity with
refined taste and cultivated feelings. This
thing Of being arrested by common every day
constables should be stopped.

MUST SUFFER.
The Supreme Court Refuses New Trials for
Walker Derrick and Allen Chiles.

The Supreme Court has refused TO grant a
new trial for Walker Derrick, who was con-
victed OF murder at the last term OF the court
and sentenced to be hanged. He was re-
iected loyer. The crime. Of which he is con-
victed was that OF shooting the husband OF a
eride of Il single day. The next evening after
the marriage the bride was sitting on the
knee of her husband IN their little country
home The door was open. IN the darkness
a shot was fired. and the husband was Killed
while holding his bride. Walker Derrick was
con victed OF the crime on circumstantial evil
depce. He now awaits the October court
when he will be re-sentenced, and another
day set for the execution OF the death penalty.
Allen Chiles, under sentence OF seven years
servitude In 'penitentlary for killing his
wife, appealed to the Supreme Court for an
other cha nee TO get clear. but IT seems not to
be the universal rule OF the court TO give
criminals the necessary new trials to secure
acquittal And so 1t IL that Allen Chiles Will

The Seaboard Has Been Gobbled.

The latest acquisition of the Southern Rail-
way Company is the seaboard Air Line Rail-
way. From the News and Courier of .yester-
day, We take the following:
Atlanta, Ga. July l5.-For several days 1t
has been common report that the Southern
Railroad has secured controf of the Seaboard
Air Line. The Seaboard officers here say mat
they understand that the reports are current
and that they expect to lose their Jobs when
the Southern takes active possession. The
contract has been signed. The Seaboard sys-
tenn reaches from Portsmouth to Atlanta,
with steamship lines from Portsmouth to Bal
timore, New York, Providence and Boston.
The railway mileage is about $50 miles. The
Seaboard has been making costly fight on
the Southern, and it is stated that the South
ern considered 1t cheaper 10 buy its rival than
to fight it.
If the report is true it may seal the fate OF
the road from Abbevlle TO Hodges. The
same system, 1t seems to us, would not need
two separate and distinct lines to tap the Col
umbia and Greenville road, and SO it may be
that Engineer George w. Syfan may live TO
see the road abandoned, on which he laid the
irons more than forty years ago.

The News and Courier.

The News and Courier has made progress in
the mechanical execution Of the paper. A
new and splendid press has been put in, and
type setting machines now do the work
which MIN Bile fingers formerly did.
The new facilities will cheaper the produc
tion of great pauer like the News and Cou
rIer, and we presume the readers Of that pa
per Will share with the stockholders the bene
fits to be derived from the advanced step
The press work is great Improvement or
the old, and the new type makes pleasant
paper to read-if its editor will only keep on
the lines of peace. South Carolina Is evident
~ tired of so much fussing. and no power lr
the State can be as effectual in contributing
TO peace, as the News and Courier.

The Difference.

When a convict, suffering under sentence
of the law, attempts to make his escape, and
is shot by the guards, q few OF the papers may
note the fact in a few lines
When n criminal violates the law of the
State in order 10 make a few dollars, and
then attempts to shoot and Kill the State con-
stables, a great hue and cry Ia raised against
the law and the constabes-(not against the
lawbreakers.j
The man who goes about the country in the
night time armed with rifles and pistols to
protect himself from aurest is made to appear
lamblike officer is pictured as bad citizen
indeed.

Tit for Tat.

When Simonton was sending constaoies 10
jail because of the technical violation OF or
pers which were not explicit, the act received
the hearty commentator Of the city press.
But when State Judges sentence criminals
to Jail or to the penitentary for wtlful Vlola-
lion of the laws we hear much Of the right OF
trial by jury.
When the opponents of Tillman, forget the
high and worthy principles which actuated
them, and they become attorneys for the law
breakers, the ranks Of the Straightout or n
dependent or Anti faction is greatly thinned.
There are many Ants who are not apolojists
for crime and who do not care To align them
ssl y.s with The lawless liquor element.

SOME FACTS
Or Solid Chunks Of wisdom.

The Savannah Press truthfully says: "lt
payS to advertise In a newspaper all The year
round 1t pays Just as well In summer AS IT
does in winter. That ancient and very fool.
ish superstition that advertisers could afford
to keep out OF print during the bot montns
has been ef1ectually exploited. The puolic
consumes food, wears clothes, shoes, and hats
and purchases furniture and all the necessa-
ries of lie in summer as well as winter; in.
deed, the number of people who are shrewd
enough to see that IL Is often profitable To
wait ior summer bargains Is constantly In
creasing. The merchant ho attracts these
customs by seasonable and Interesting an
nouncements OF what be has to sell VIII MAKE
money whether the weather Is hot or cool,
dry or rainy"
