Simply Indispensable for the Hauling of
Heavy Animals.
A convenient device for hanging
hogs is valuable assistant in the hand
ling of heavy animals. The accom-
panymg illustration represents the
principal parts of such contrivance.
Stout posts Ia and b., seven or eight
inches square, are firmly fixed in the
ground about 16 inches apart, and
stand ten feet or more in height. These
are connected above by hardwood
beam (c), three inches thick and ten
inches in depth, mortised into the posts
end held bypins or bolts. Aft, near the
post b, and directly over the platform
upon which the hog has been made
ready for hanging, a small pulley is
suspended from the beam, using for,
this purpose an eye bolt passing
through the beam but not above it. The
frame of this pulley should be large
enough that the hook on the end of the,
rope may be readily put through it or
removed. A number of carriages SIM
liar to e are made to run on the beam.
They consist of hardwood roller four
inches in diameter and of about the
same length, from which hangs long,
iron loop inclosing the beam. This loop
should be wide enough below, and eXS
tend downward far enough that the
carriage may pass to the pulley at f..
From the loop hangs a chain about 1s
inches in length. Through the post a
an opening is cut just below the beam,
AID a pulley (k) inserted, over which
the rope is carried down to q windlass
fixed on the post few feet from the
ground. A hanger (h) is provided for
each carriage. In this different length
of stick may be used as 'spreader,"
thus adapting it to larger~or smaller
animals.
In working this device all the car
riages to be used are transferred to the
right end of the beam except one,

GINSENG IN BETHEL.

About year ago THE ENQUIRER asked
whether or not ginseng was idigenous to
the soil of this county, and received
answers to the effect that 1t had been
found near Kings Mountain battle-ground
and also in Fort Mill township.
The plant is also found in Bethel. Mr..
Jerry Walker, of the Clover neighbor-
hood, is our informant, and he backed up
his information on last Monday by bring
ing us some specimens that he found
recently. Mr.. Walker is from North
Carolina and became acquainted with
ginseng up in Burke county. He saw the
paragraphs in THE ENQUIRER about a
year ago, and, upon opportunity, has
been looking for the plant in this section.
He has made diligent search in various
sections; but has never happened to run
across it except in Bethel.
Starting at the roots, which, according
to the Chinese, are similar in shape to
mans thigh, there is about six inches of
green stem. Then from the stem branch
es out three prongs, each about two inches
in length, and from each of the prongs
shoot out five leaves. Once seen and rec
ognized the plant could he identified
anywhere.
The plant is esteemed by the Chinese
for the alleged medicinal value of the
roots. The roots Of the specimens brought
in by Mr.. Walker are very small-not
more than quarter of an inch in dame
ter at the largest place; but MIR. Walker

Colonel F. w. McMaster, Of Columbia,
is out in the papers with proposition by
which he seeks to turn down the organi-
zed Democracy of this State at Chicago.
The colonel assumes in the first place that
the State convention will declare for free
coinage, and this, in bis opinion, is not
Democracy. Therefore, he wants each
town in the State to send to Columbia
gold delegates with view to holding a
State convention on the same day that
the regular convention is to be held-May
I3. This trumped up convention Is to
endorse President Cleveland and the gold
standard and repudiate the free coinage
of silver. If it will do this, the colonel
seems to think that its delegates will be
seated at Chicago. To discuss Colonel
McMaster's scheme would be waste of
space. In the first place there is no sense
in it, and in the second place we have no
idea it will commend itself to any consid-
erable number of people who call them
selves Democrats.

COUNTY EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE


The newly elected County Democratic
executive committee met in the court
house on Monday Immediately after the
adjournment of the county convention,
and was called to order by retiring Chair
man J. s. Brice, who explained that the
first business in order was the election of
q chairman.
IT nominate Mr.. Brice," spoke up a
half dozen members at the same time, all
trying to get the words out first. There
seemed to be no disposition to make any
further nominations. Even II there had
been, there would have been no time.
Mr.. W. J. Davis put the nomination, and
it was carried unanimously by acclama-
ton.
Mr.. J. J. Waters was elected vice chair
man, and Mr.. W. ]. Davis was elected
secretary and treasurer. The committee
was then duly organized for business.
Somebody suggested action on Captain
w. II. Edwards suggestion in reference
to Rock Hills claim for representation on
a different basis than that originally fixed
by the Democratic executive committee.
Mr.. Brice suggested that the State con-
vention has the right to change the con-
stitution at the meeting in May, if it sees
fit, and inasmuch as there is plenty of
time in which to act, it will probably be
best to wait and see whether or not there
are any changes in regard to this special
matter. The suggestion was adopted.
There was no other business Of impor-
tance to be transacted and the committee
adjourned subject to the call of the chair
man.

- That old joke about mountaineer
Democrats continuing to vote for An

ter all. A West Virginia paper pays
the appended compliment to Demo
crat who has been dead for about 10
years: "Mr. Daniel Manning is GER
tainly the choice Of the Democratic
newspaper men of West Virginia for
president. He stopped raids upon the
treasury for gold by telling the Wall
street people that any further efforts
on their part to empty the treasury OF
gold would be met by paying hall
their demands in silver and half in
gold. He experienced no further trou.
Bile while he was in Office. His posi-
ton on this question makes him q
favorite. No bonds had to be issued
during his term of Office to replenish
the depleted gold reserve"
