THE YEAR 1896.

A few more days and the year
1895 will be a thing of the past.
Christmas is always hailed with de-
light, and is the occasion for general
iollifcation and merry-making, but
who can contemplate the closing
hours Of year without having min
gled feelings OF gratitude and sad
ness-gratitude for so many priyi-
leges ann blessings, and sorrow be-
cause the time has not been even
better spent. One will naturally ask
himself, what have I done, and what
Improvement have I made? The
time is near at hand far new resolu-
tions to be made, and along with the
rest of imperfect humanity The writer
has Il few to make. He resolves 10
keep on hand during the year 1897
one of the choicest lines Of Dry
Goods, Shoes and Groceries for It's
size to be found anywhere. He be-
gan business in September, and al
though on Il somewhat limited scale,
has cause to be thankful, and is pro.
foundlY grateful for all patronage re.
ceived j. H. Lcsesne is always glad
to welcome his friends and the pub
lie. He promises to sell on as close
margin as goods can he sold at
and will endeavor never to misrepre'
sent anything.

HAS'CY ACTION.

The Senate OF the United States
through it's committee on Forcio n
Relations has reported farorably up
on the resolution recognizing the III
dependence of Cuba and if this step
does not provoke a war with Spain i:
will not be the fault of those who are
laboring increasingly to embroil this
country in conflict with that
power.
A great portion of the people OF
the United States seem to be in the
same state of hysterical excitement
over Cuba as were the people OF the
North over the newly emancipated
negroes If the South.
The mulatto statesman Of 1858, at
long range, were no doubt objects OF
great interest to Northerners who
read in the columns Of the veracious
journals OF that section of the fine
bursts of eloquence with which they
denounced the lazy, intolerant and
cruel Southern whites.
How the blood of the average
Yankee must have boiled with in-
dienation over the hecatombs of
gallant and industrious blacks and
mulattos butchered daily by the
blood thirsty Ku Klux Klan of South
Carolina and Georgia; but alas for
common sense a short acquaintance
with the affairs on the spot generally
dispelled these illusions and sent the
Nortnerner back, with the reflection
that much as he pitied the blacks and
as cruel and intolerant as be still re-
garded the Southern whites in their
ideas Of social matters rs an intelli-
gent Anglo-Saxon, be could not sup
port any plan which brought in its
train such saturnalia of corruption
and vice as was the invariable
accompaniment OF negro administra-
ton.
At long range Maceo has an at
tractive character. The Sun mag
ines that he was somewhat of the
type of Ex-Congressman Robert
Smalls and Maceo could be that and
vet be far below the present leaders
OF thought and movement among the
colored people, those who re'lize that
the negro has plenty of courage, pier
ty of vim and pluck in the direction
of destruction; but that the training
to which the race must be subjected
is in the constructive line and in the
power of self control.
However, the wiseacres Of the Sen
ate have recognized the indepen-
dence OF Cuba, and The Sun can on.
ly express the hope that time may not
demonstrate that they have been III
strumeutal in the erection of aro;her
Hayti.

Among the positions Of ofprominence
to be filed by the general assembly
is that of superintendent of State
penitentiary. We learn that the
present incumbant is to have oppo-
si.ion, and we recognize the right OF
every citizen to aspire to public po-
sition, but at the same time we also
recognize that merit already tested
is far more valuable than merit to be
tested.
Colonel W. A. Neal, has made a
most efficient officer, and without
any intention to reflect upon the
record of his predecessors, we can
safely say that under his administra-
ton the State penitentiary has been
managed with strict fidelity to the
peoples interests and on business
principles. When the general assem-
bly, meets, we hope all opposition to
Colonel Neal will have disappeared
and that this faithful officer will re-
ceive his we'll done by a unanimous
election.
An institution like the State pen
itertiary should not be made a prize
for factions to war over, but it should
have at it's managing head, a man
placed there solely on his business
qualifications and his integrity, and
as with all business institutions,
when the management is q success
and is giving satisfaction, it is un'
wise to make a change.

The Edgefeld Chronicle says there
is some talk OF f.annuling the primary,
and if done, will give Judge Earle
vigorous opposition, but it expresses
the opinion that Governor Evans
viii not permit his name to go be-
fore The Assembly. We fail to un-
derstand the object in starting such a
talk, as we are sure that Judge Earle
viii have not opposition unless it
comes from the Republicans and that
will virtually amount to no opposi-
lion, unless it is TO make contest in
the United States Senate. It is
stated that Mark Hanna needs two
or three more Senators and he may
put up Sampson Pope or some other
Republican to oppose Judge Earle
With Instructions to carry the cleo
sion on up to the Senate and depend
upon a Republican majority to per-
form grand steal. In our opinion
Judge Earle will iave the support of
every Democrat, and should an In
dependant or Republican present
himself. the member of the General
Assembly who voted for Governor
Evans in the primary will be Judge

After the second Tuesday il next
month Governor Ellerbe will have
charge of the helm of the State and
then will be the end to factional
differences. Let US all go to work
and give the new Governor helping
hand. He will have many intri-
cate problems to solve and
if the people OF both factions
will hold up his hands his admins
tration will be success and the DIFF
ferences brought about by the two
factions will be laid aside and all Of
US will once again be on the best OF
political terms. All of the most i'm
portant measures proposed by the
Reform faction have become accom-
plishcd facts and there is really moth
ing now to keep up past differences
and unless aspiring politicians spring
some issue for their own advance
ment, the last vestage of political an
nimosity will be wiped out at the
coming session of the general assem-
hlv. Governor Ellerbe will find the
best people Of the Reform faction
ready and willing to give their assent
to g non-factional administration, and
we are satisfied the best element Of
the Conservative faction are likewise
anxious for cessation Of chickering's
and strife.
We have been allied with the
strong factionists, and some OF
our utterances were regarded ex-
treme, but the conditions then ex-
listing, do not exist now and we see
no reason or sense in keeping up
a war with nothing at stake to bat
tie for. Hereafter this paper will
support no man for Office on factlonal
grounds, nor will it advocate the
cause of a faction; but it will sup
port men and measures on their
merit alone. We do not make this
statementas an apology for the past,
but it is made because we deem 1t
proper to let our readers know our
position, as we do not believe in al
Sal;;sh-rag polies IN newspaper and
while we expect 10 express our views
on public matters in our usual posi-
tive manner, we will do so free FROM
factional policy. The factional race
is run, the stake has been passed and
the time and winner announced.

President Cleveland has returned
10 his home after having a successful
aunting trip in South Carolina. Now
everybody is on the look out to see
what he will do with the Spanish
Cuban embroglio. Congress has on
is war paint, but the president has
the key 70 the ammunition house and
If he continues his present policy he
will not be likely to let the boys have
their way in wantingto rush pell-mell
into fight with Spain. Those who are
SO anxious to free Cuba may want
somebody to hold them before the
thing is over, and we think the pres
ident is right in not interfering with
the troubles Of other countries, while
we have plenty OF troubles OF our
own. The United States can get
along very well without Cuba, that
island if annexed to this country
wcGld only be source of annoyance,
as il, would bring to us an element
that the South has for years been
struggling to rid itself OF. We have
no faith IN the sensational reports
about the Spanish-Cuban war, be-
cause they all contradict each other
and there appears to be no reliable
source of information, and if Ameri
cans choose to run the gauntlet and
slip over there to help either side,
they should not expect this govern
ment 10 protect them.
