Rear Admiral MakarOff.

s'Rear Admiral Makaroff of the Rus
sian navy says the Philadelphia Rec
ord, ''who was recently a guest of
Charles Fl. Cramp, is one of the most
conspicuous figures of modern European
naval history. Although only AZ years
of age, he is first on the list of Russian
rear admirals and is senior to a large
number of officers whom he superseded
by special promotion. He it was who,
during the last Turko- Russian war, was
regarded the Skokeloff of the Russian
navy, and, like that great general, whose
portraits he resembles, was several times
promoted for his daring and enterprise.
His career in that war was an uninter-
rupted series of dashing attacks ON Turk
ish ships in the Batum and other Turk
ish harbors of the Black sea, in which
his skill was second alone to his daring
That is why he is the senior rear admiral
at the age Of AZ years. He recently COM
manded the Asiatic squadron and is
now on his way home to assume COM
mand of the Baltic fleet. -

Dunraven's Rapacious Fish.

The Earl Of Dunraven, finding that
there were too many pike in his waters
at Adare Manor, County Limerick, Ire
land, for successful trout fishing, recent
~ ordered his professional fisherman TO
capture what he could of them. Thirty
four have been taken so far of an aver
age weight of 9 pounds each, the
largest weighing % pounds and the
smallest pounds. Why three-fourths
OF them were females is not understood
at all. That there was need of taking
out the pike is shown by the fact that
several of the fish contained trout, and
nearly all the females were heavy with
spawn The pickerel fry feed ON the
trout and salmon fry, being far better

winning for the people the most important
victory ever decided by the arbitramens Of
court of justice.
Gov. Evans has by tact, ingenuity and
legal Skill succeeded in preserving the DIS
pensary law against the most harrasSlng
efforts of Federal Courts
By his efforts the state made a lnagalhceni
exhibit of its wonderful resources at the
Atlanta Exposition in the fall Of 1898.
Gov. Evans was a strong advocate OF the
calling of the constitutional convention, and
when after hard fight at the polls the peo'
pie decided to hold convention for the
purpose Of framing q new constitution, the
people Of Aiken County again Aolofed Gov.
Evans By electing him to the conStItutiona!
convention He led the ticket over strong
opposition.
Gov. Evans was honored with the ligh
com pl;,ae,lt 81 unanimous election as Presl-
dent OF tie Convention. He presided over
that very intelligent body with great Dig
n:ty. fairness and ability. and IS 2 token OF
the high esteem in which be was held by
the members Of the convention, they pre-
sented him with handsome watch

unanimously elected one OF the delegates at
large from South Carolina. Being an ardent
advocate Of free silver and other demands
of the people, Gov Evans was held in high
regard by The leaders Of the National!
Democracy.
For the demands of the Alliance and the
Reform party, both State and National.
Gov. Evans has taken 2 firm stand, and IS
always t> be found in the ranks OF those
fighting for justice and yightfor the people.
He espoused the cause Of the great COM
moner B. r. Tillman at its very inception,
and had been one Of his most trusted al
visers in council One of his ablest and
truest lieutenants in his warfare on the
enemies OF the people. and ore of his con-
slant and insevering cosdjutors in bis work
in behalf Of the State.
Gov. Evans is a candidate for the Z. S.
Senate to succeed Senator Irby. IN view of
his past success and exemplary record il IS
safe to predict that over thirty counties will

It was gratifying to US to see the
manhood displayed by Governor
Evans at the Anderson meeting last
Monday when be was shown to be in
error in the statement he made about
Mr.. Maxwell the insurance agent.
Like true man he apologized, and
acknowledged his error; many o man
would have stubbronly refused to
apologize, and would have allowed
what he said stand regardless of con-
sequences, but when a manly man
finds himself in the wrong he corrects
the wrong.

Gov. Evans not being candidate for re.
election, there YVES a spontaneous. unso-
licited uprising of the whole people. with.
out regard TO faction. for VIM. H. ElIerbe.
Like Cinciunatus. he was taken from the
plow; but not to lead his people in hostile
array against an enemy; but to accept at
their hands the highest Office within the
gift of our democratic voters. And he will
be nominated and elected by the largest
majority ever given candidate in South
Carolina. Mark this prediction. While a
reformer to the core, Gen. Ellerbe has, by
his superior business capacity, his patriot
ism and recognized ability, won the re-
spect and confidence OF al! classes and all
factions of his people. Wm. H. Ellerbe is
one man upon whom South Carolinians can
unite, for they feel that in honoring him
they also honor themselves snd their State.

The Columbia State is urging the
Conservatives to turn out to the pri-
mary to vote. If our memory serves
US correctly, it used to urge its friends
to stay out of the primary and in the
last general election it advocated the
election of Pope. What is its pur-
pose now for being so anxious about
the primary? It may think the Re
formers are torn to pieces on the
United States Senatorship, but we
can assure them that they are not.
At one time during this campaign a
number of Reformers were inclined
to support Judge Earle, because they
believed he had come over into the
Reform ranks, but Earle's speeches
duringthe latter part ofthis campaign
has convinced them that be is neither
a Reformer or Conservative, and that
he is taking both factions 10 ride. A
man can not be both in this fight. He
must stand square by the people or
place himself against them. The peo-
pie have other demands besides the
free coinage of silver and they want
to vote for mar 20 represent them
in the Senate who will advocate all Of
their demands. Earle has declared
himself for free silver and we believe
he would carry out the promise, but
We have never seen where he has

other hand, John Gary Evans, not

A gentleman who is well known II

us that Judge Earle i'll talking to q

portaut measures IL S,saJe m",.9:s
and Evans proved himself not o1iT

him, but an able advocate Tor the
peoples cause. Every effort to black
en- his character has been made; enc
mics Lave raketl Evans from his
cradle up to date with Il hne tooth
comb, and ali that they have accom-
plished was to bring out few insln-
uations from men who were giving
vent to personal spleen, because EV-
ans saw fit to use>his own head and
not the heads of others. No wonder
Earle can see that Evans will be
elected; every meeting shows plain
~ that the people do not believe the
improved insinuations made against
him. The whole truth of the business
is, that when Evans caused some
changes to be made il made some
people mad and they wanted to get
even with him. They tried McLaurln,
but he was rot playing somebody's
fool; They then whispered their love
into The ear Of Judge Earle without
telling him the motive which prompt
ed them. The iudge being am-
bilious caught At tie bait,and he now

AS newspaper getting its support
from the people we feel it our duty to
sound q warning whenever we think
there is danger ahead, and as long as
we are in the newspaper work we pro-
pose doing what we conceive to be
our duty.
Next Tuesday the white men of
Clarendon are called to the ballot box
to nominate their State and county
officers. It is their duty to respond to
the call, because nomination is equal
to an election. The candidates should
be given due consideration; each OF
them is entitled to be weighed in the
minds Of the people by merit, and not
by passion or prejudice. 1t would be
wrong in any voter to allow himself
Influenced by some rumor or report,
for it very often happens that good
man, one who would make a faithful
officer is defeated just because some
one started damaging report about
him, and again, it would be wrong in
a voter to cast aside candidate be-
cause the brother of the candidate has
been indiscreet in some of his express
sions. We have heard of men refus-
ing to vote for a candidate because
brother of the candidate said some
thing about somebody else. This is
not fair, nor is it creditable to the
man who will allow himself so in
huenced. We say that every candi-
date should be judged not by the ac-
tions OF others, but by his own con-
duct.
It has been our purpose from the
beginning to keep this paper from sup
porting any county candidate and We
are satisfied the people will say, We
have carried out that purpose. There
never has been an issue of this paper,
in this campaign where one line has
been written in favor OF any particu-
lar candidate. We did this because
we desired to treat them all fairly, and
because ours is the only paper pub
iished in the county.
The people alone have the right to
select their officials and whoever a
majority select, we will join in, and
give the fortunate ones hearty sup
port. There has been all kinds of ru-
mors put out aud the county is being
canvassed by candidates and their
friends; in our judgement the cool,
sober thought will finally prevail; we
do not believe the people will allow
themselves to be governed by petty
ru1nors set to float for electioneering
purposes. Next Tuesday will show
whether or not combinations have
been formed, snd when the report
from each clab is published we are
satisfied that some of the candidates,
now out at the invitation of other can
didates, will be sorely disappointed.
Somebody will be found lacking sure.
