Bryan and Silver.

The National Campaign now begun
will be of more absorbing interest than
any siloe 1876. The contest will ex-
tend to every State North and West.
and Massachusetts will be as debatable
ground as Michigan. The Democratic
standard-bearer, William j. Bryan,
will take the flag of Free Silver into
the very citadels of Gold, and from first
to last, ,,ihe struggle will be sensational.
There will not be dull week from
now until November. The State is the
Leading South Carolina Newspaper
supporting the National Democratic
Ticket and the National Democratic
Platform. 1t is the admitted champion
of the great issue of Bimetallism, upon
which the battle will be fought. 1t
has always heen a good newspaper,
and will be better than ever during
this struggle. 1t will keep the people
of South Carolina closely informed of
the progress and prospects of the cam
paign. No Democrat seeking Demo-
cratic news and doctrine can afford to
be without it.

When few months ago the r. mains
of JuliasJ. Fleming, Esq., were laid
away in our Baptist cemetery it was
not in the minds of any of us that his
son Norwood Fleming who was at his
fathers funeral, would so soon follow
and be laid by his side.
Norwood Fleming was citizen Of
Atlanta but died in New York whith-
er he had gone in the business interest
CT the firm he represented. In that
city the fatal illness seized him and
although attended by the best physi-
clans and trained nurses of that
metropolis it was not in the power or
the skill of man to stay the impending
afliction.
In the city of Atlanta where deceas-
ed was best known, and especially in
busiress aud financial circles, he en-
joyed the esteem respect aid honor of
all, for his probity, his business quail
ties, his genial bearing. He was also
leader in church and SunGay-schcr u
and there as elsewhere won the high
regard and love of all who met him
and knew HIM. In the sacred home
circle he lived this motto, as exempli-
fled In the living of it,
81 live for those who love me;
For those who know me true;
For the heaven that smiles above me,
And waits my spirit, too"
Deceased leaves wife and three chill
dren, mother, and sister, now In our
midst, who had the consolation of
knowing these things while he lived;
and such legacy of character may be
laid up by them as priceless treasure
along with the blessed assurance of
meeting again beyond the stars-a
meeting, but never again parting!
.Sw eeter than scent of new-mown hay,
Sweeter than sky larks thrilling lay,
Softer than tints on sunset sky,
Softer than mothers lullaby,
Sweeter than mnsic on the sea,
Sweeter than loves glad minstrelsy,
Are thoughts cf hopes that anchored
lie
Across the sea-beyond the sky"

BREVITIES.

On Sunday morning last at 10
O'Clock at his home near Monetta, this
county, Captain James Boatwright de-
parted this life after a short illness.
He was about GA years of age, and left
wife and eleven children to whom
we extend our deepest sympathy.
Captain Boatwright was gallant
officer of the Confederate army and did
his duty in that sphere as soldier
should. He was good citizen ten
der and affectiona:e husband and
father.
There now remain of this large and
influential family only two survivors,

were turned over to Policeman
Davidson by Conductor Whit

at Wynnewood, l. T., by some
unknown parties who said that
relatives would meet the little
fellows at this depot. Not find
ing the relatives the conductor
put them in the care of the
policeman who, after making a
search for their friends or rela-
tives and failing to find either,
lodged them at the Santa Fe

A Dangerous Position.

The Middle-of.the-Road Pop
ulists may find lesson in the
o--erience Of skeleton Um-
brella" Bohannon.
Mr.. Bohannon illustrated his
political position by standing in
the middle of Chestnut street.
His attitude was digniied and
impressive until an electric
street car came booming along.
The question of Mr., Bohannon's
position then resolved itself into
tire alternative of jumping or
. bcing run over. MIR. Bohannon
took the better horn of the di-
jlemma and jumped to the side
of the road.
The situation of the Middle
1f-;he-Road PopulistS is similar
10 thut of Mr.. Bohanou. THE
great popular movement led 10y
William +. Bryan is sweeping
along with irresistible power.
The mass of the people who on
pose gold monometallism, mon
opoly and syndicate govern
ment are in the Bryan army
. The Middle-of-the-Road people
j must jump or be run over.
If the leaders refuse TO sane
ton the combination OF all tn,
] forces against the Mckinley
: syndicate under the Bryan ban
rer they will not hurt the cauS,
! as much as they Will damag,

TOWNSHIP CONVENTION.

4 number of papers are agl-
tating the question of townsite
legislation and tOwnsite conven-
tons, and in this connection
the ARDMoREITE desires to say
that while a tritie early III the
season to begin, still something
in this line must be done before
congress meets in December.
Ardmore. in this as in all other
matters pertaining 10 the we'll
fare of our people, will furnish
| its share of the expense money
necessary to the work. This
place has expended OH an aver
age $1,000 per annum for six or
seven years trying to better the
conditions of non-citiZens in the
territory, and is well satisfied
with the result of the invest
ment.
Ardmore made the first fight
for United States court in the
territory and won in the face
of overwhelming odds.
! Ardm0ra made the fight
against the Fort Smith anC
Paris courts year after year
and in the Fift,--third congress
| in the winter of '94 and '95, al
iArdmOre man secured the pas
sage of 4 bill by which, on the
first day Of September next
these courts will lose their ter
ritOry jurisdiction.
ArdmOre went into IL town
size convention last fall il
which ali the prominent town
in the ChickastW nation wer
represented, and after the dele
: gates were elected Ardmor
| paid perhaps 80 per cent of tn
total expense account incure,
by the delegation at Washing
ton. In addition to this Ard
more alone sent a delegate +
the national capitol when th
: repeal of the jurisdiction bil
: was threatened, who was ampl
prepared TO make IA vigorou
: fight had it been necessary.
Yes, ArdmOre is in favor of
: townsite convention and wi
: elect delegates thereto and bac
l the delegation to WashingtO
with cash, and if it is all tn
same to all the parties concern
ed would Ike very much to hav
that convention meet in thi
