Extracts Which Show the Candidate Is a
Free Trader.
From the Canton QlliuOis) Register,
we clip some extracts 1rCm the speech
Bryan made upon the Wilgon-Gorman
tariff, as follows:
Wool, for instance, is the chief raw
material in the wooden industry, and it
has been placed upon the free list.
Whether the tariff on wool has
raised the price of wool to the sheep
grower above the point it would have
reached without a tariff is question
which has been discussed rather than
settled. Speaking for myself, it is i'm
material in my judgment whether the
sheep growrs receives any benefit from
the tariff or not. Whether he does or
not, whether the wool manufacturer
collects a compensatory duty from the
consumer of wooden goods and pays it
over to the wool grower, or collects it
and keeps it himself, or doesn't col
lect it at all, and therefore does not
need it, l am for free wool IN order
that the vast majority Of people who
do not raise sheep, but who do need
W Oh Ill IlOIIlL-Eo lilCiLl II JIIO
blasts of winter may have their cloth
ing cheaper; and in order that our
wooden manufacturers, unburdened by
tax upon home grown wool-may
manufacture for a wider market.
The committee has left-not only
upon carpets but upon iron, and upon
wooden goods and cotton goods and
all through the bill-far more tariff
! than anybody can justify, even if it
could be shown that any protection is
needed at all or could be rightfully
asked"
The above extracts from BryaI's
speech show ne is an ultra free trader.
Remember this was relating to the
Wilson bill, much stronger bill than
the one finally passed, called the
Wilson-Gorman bill. In that speech
he says the tariff in the Wilson bill is
far too high. How do Republ' cans
relish these principles of the Demo
cratic candidate?-Ogden Press.

For Fiat Money.

One by one the Popocrats are
throwing off the mask and admitting
that they want no bimetallism, but
silver recommendation. H. L. Louks
Of South Dakota, leading Populist,
admits that he wants silver because
it is a step toward fiat money" The
Nebraska patriot, Edgerton, admits
that fiat money will follow silver.
A Kentucky silver man joins in the
song in the Louisville Courier-Jour-
nal:
IF the people want bimetallism at
all, they want the currency depre-
ciated, and this is what would be
done if the ratio of 16 to l should be
adopted. 1t is not parity which we
want; it is not concurrent circulation;
il gold does not circulate here it will
circulate elsewhere, as it is now do
ing; it will still form a portion Of
the worlds money supply. We will
have no need for gold; silver will be
our money, and it will be what we
want, deprecated currency" - Nc

The Spartanburg Herald tells the
following story of a Rip Van Wrinkle,
in North Carolina: Mr.. J. NJ Lam
caster, who lives over in Polk county,
North Carolina, was in the city yester.
day. He said that an old Negro
named Miles went squirrel hunting
the other day near Tyron and not
meeting with much luck, he lay down
under the shade of large tree to
watch for game. The old man being
very tired, he soon fell asleep. The
next morning his wife, alarmed at his
not returning home, collected large
party and went in search of her mis-
sing husband. The posse, after scour-
ing the woods diligently for three
days in vain, gave up the search and
concluded that Miles had quit the
country. Just exactly one week from
the day Miles fell asleep he woke up.
About dusk he arrived home and
commanded his wife to hurry up sup
per as he was very hungry. The old
fellow cannot be made to believe that
he slept one week, and still maintains
that the whole thing is put up job
on him.

Their Arms.

Captured Their Arms.
Adiutant and Inspector General
Watts worked sharp trick on the
colored militia of Charleston last Tues
day. When the new enlistment law
was passed over year ago, the COL
ored troops were mustered out of SER
vice; but when they were ordered to
give up their arms they failed to
do it. The regular inspection took
place sometime back ; but not long ago
General Watts ordered the Charleston
militia to be ready for inspection
again last week. Eight colored and
several white companies turned out.
The inspection was proceeded with
regularly, and after it was concluded,
the colored companies were ordered
to lay down their arms. There were
a good many bulging eyes, but the
order was obeyed. Then the white
companies, with fixed bayonets were
ordered to take charge. The members
of the colored companies muttered
some, but made no further resistance.
The colored companies were then dis
missed, and the members went back
to their armories, minus their arms.
Two colored companies that were evil
dently suspicious, failed to come Into
the inspection idea, and they still have
guns. General Watts will try to dis
pose of them in some other way.

TUNlSON'S
NEW TOWNSHIP, COUNTY, RAIL.
WAY, DISTANCE, STATE
MAP OF SOUTH CAROLINA.

TNHIS new Map of South Carolina has
Il lust been completed and has no equal.
It was constructed by the most accom-
plished draughtsmen and engravers; is
based on government surveys, official
railroad information and other authentic
sources. Unequalled in accuracy, it Is
newer in design than any other, and Is the
only map of the State sold at reasonable
price. Each township Is colored separate
ly in sea shell tint colors by the hand and
stencil process and named. The counties,
Including the new county of Saluda, are
plainly outlined and the principal wagon
roads all over the State are shown, also
the canals.
This is also the most complete railroad
map of South Carolina ever published, as
it gives the entire railroad system of the
State with the correct distance between
every station marked with figures from
official railroad guides. The names of the
railroads are printed on them thus we
can tell what railroad to take to 60 to any
town or place, and the correct distances,
shortest road, and cost Of travel between
any two places.
This map locates each postofice, includ-
ing those most recently established. 1t
gives the population Of towns and coun-
ties, also Of the State according to the last
census and a brief historical sketch Of the
State with views Of Charleston and large
scale map of Charleston Harbor from re-
cent government survey, making it the
latest and most valuable map of South
Carolina ever published.

Columbia Register Wednesday: The
state board of control met last night
in regular monthly session. One of
the matters in which the public has
been interested was the investigation
into the conduct of Dispenser Steven

ing at Winnsboro. The county board
of control made report and it was
given out last night that the board
had exonerated the dispenser from the
"charges" made against him. The
report of the county board was not
made public, but it was accepted by
the state board. A matter in which
all taxpayers are most interested,
however, was the determination of the
board to pay into the state treasury
$1OO,O from the accrued net profits
of the business. This sum will be
paid in four monthly installments, the
first payment to be made on October,
l. That the board is able to pay this
much toward the reduction of taxes
will not only be welcomed by the peo-
pie at large, but is an evidence of the
good business principles on which the
dispensary is being conducted under
the present regime. So far the dis
pensary has paid directly into the
treasury $4,000 borrowed to start on,
$4,000 towards the payment of the
expenses of the constitutional conven-
ton, which is to be followed by this
payment of 100000.

lowing letter which explains itself,
and which he requests US to print
along with the proceedings
To the McGills of the Southland: Greet
ings and congratulations l regret ex-
ceedingly that it is not possible for me to
be with you on the occasion Of your re.
union. Representing many families OF
McGills in western Pennsylvania, who
are Christians and Psalm-singers, l
should esteem it verv great privilege
and pleasure to look into your faces and
form your acquaintances. should be
proud also to claim kinship with family
the fame of which has gone throughout
all the church hes.
I am told that your illustrious ancestor
went from western Pennsylvania, and
that the family has been like unto that of
old-"a fruitful bough, whose branches
run over the wall" For the, northern
branch I send the kindest greeting to the
branch that leans toward the sunny
south. And may the whole tree ever be
like that, "planted by the rivers of water,
that bringeth forth fruit in his season ;
his leaf also shall not wither, and what
soeyer he doeth shall prosper"

There was a strong desire for the
nomination of President Cleveland,
but owing to message from the presi-
dent to the effect that, under no cir
cumstances, would he accept, his name
was not put in nomination.
The Chicago platform was repudi-
ated, Cleveland's administration was
endorsed and gold standard, tariff
for-revenue-only platform was adopt
ed.
The only names presented for the
presidential nomination were those OF
General John NJ. Palmer of Illinois,
and General Edward S. Bragg, of Wis
consin. Palmer was nominated on the
first ballot by vote of 1871 to 1244
Simon B. Buckner of Kentucky, was

Correspondence Of the Yoriville Enquirer.
Rock HILL, September 3.-Major
A. H. White and his sister, Miss Mary
White, have gone for few days visit to
Cleveland Springs. Major White has
had some trouble of a malarial type
lately but is better. We hope few days
at the springs will make him himself
again.
Rev. 81. r. Mosely, after holiday, is
again at home and at work, looking very
much as if he was ready for it. His trip
was in the mountains, getting close to
nature and primitive mode Of life as
seems most health giving; in preference
to few weeks stay in a crowded hotel at
some hot resort, where gaiety in the we'll,
makes rest impossible for the weary.
Miss Blanche May returned last Satur-
day to Blacksburg to resume her work in
the graded school there. The schools are
in charge of Prof. s. M. Rice, who has
had considerable successful experience in
his profession.

DIR. and Mrs. w. R. Simpson returned
home this morning after about two weeks
holiday in the mountains of North Caro-
lima. The doctor reports splendid time.
He enjoyed the climbing much, the fish
ing more, and was entranced in finding
some Indian relics. Of these last he al
ready has quite collection which is daily
growing larger as he has many score
agents on the watch for him. While on

work gathering relics of that neighbor-
hood.
Rock HilPs new guardhouse is COM

of these has two hunks, and in cases of

good many more. Already some few
have shown unnmistakable desire to see
the inside and try the hunks. They were
accommodated.
Rock Hill is little non-plussed over
Senator Tillman's last orders. AS long
as leader proclaims that a party must
support candidate because such candi-
date is his logical successor, and must not
notice his unfitness, so long will We have
a disturbed and unsettled condition of
public affairs. A good deal of surprise was
expressed here on learning some of the
men who had attended the caucus which
seems to have led up to the final order.
