is il not the declared policy OF the DEM
ocrauc party 20 keep every dollar on
parity with every other dollar? How does
Senator Bacon propose to carry out thar
policy if not by the means that have
been employed By the treasury?
There Is a way TO stop the outflow OF
gold. but that way is in the hands Of con-
gress. Legislation is necessary. At the
beginning Of the present session of con-
grcss the President called attention 10
the troubles of the treasury and asked
Tor relief legislation. Has there been such
legislation? There certainly has NOT.
There has been no legislation bearing up
on the financial situation The Senate
has not even attempted to do anything.
FIR. Bacon, who IS a member Of the Sem
ate. offers no help to the administra-
tion of his party. but attacks it by a propo-
sition. that, if adopted. would block the
way TO carrying out the declared policy
Of the democratic party. There are some
strange things in politics these days

4 ViriIe Church.

The Methodist general conference at
Cleveland has been marked thus lar by
sharp differences of opinion, which have
occasioned at times rather spirited con-
troversies. Several incidents, particularly
that Of the discussion Of woman's status
IN the governing bodies Of the church. and
the matter of the Christian Endeavor So
ciety's prayer test. We're at times rather
TART But all differences have been fought
with frankness as well as vigor, and at
the conclusion of the discussions peace
and harmony have prevailed.
There are great many persons outside
OF as well as in the Methodist church who
viii agree with DR.. Quayle OF Missouri.
and an evident majority of the conference
in the matter Of the prayer test" Dr.
Quayle, speaking Of the attempt Of the
Christian Endeavor Society to make a
test Of the efficacy Of prayer by concert
ed prayer for the conversion of Col Robert
G. Ingersol, said the alleged test was
'idiotic." Some one introduced a resolu-
ton that the convention dsclaim all re-
sponsibuity for this shocking statement.
Or. Quayie appealed TO the conference to
know if it sustained him, and shouts of.
1--WE do" came from all quarters of the
hall Finally a resolution to expurage all
illusions TO the matter from the perma-
nent records was carried. Nevertheless,
it is clear that the conference was opposed
to the implied doubt as to the efficacy of
Christian prayer
These spirited discussions and the sharp
differences Of opinion illustrates the fact
that the Methodist church is fun of vir-
iity. There is nothing about it suggesting
stagnation and decay. as would be the case
if all thought ran in the same channel and
every action was governed only by musty
precedent The Methodist denomination is
one Of the strongest in this country. and
much of its success and popularity may
be attributed to its progress!veness and
aggressiveness.

as the democratic candidate for senator
before the meeting Of the national demo-
cratic convention. He has not only writ
ten TO members of the executive com
mittels OF various counties, but he has
put himself in communication with infu-
entail democrats in different parts OF the
state. asking them for assistance.
one Of his letters was sent TO DR. Charles
Hicks of Dublin. Laurens county. DIR.
Hicks answer TO Mr.. Crisp's letter ought
TO be very generally published through
out the state. He tells AIr. Crisp some
very plain truths. which must be very
uapaiatable to Mr. Crisp. because Or.
Hicks has been one of his most earnest
supporters. He is not now one of Alr.

fore the national democratic convention

effort to take snap judgment on the sem

his mind so plainly that Mr.. Crisp will
not misunderstood his meaning. on this
point he says: Rather than forcstau

my Judgment the wisdom of our party
in national convention should formulate

The thinking democrats of the state
are surprised at the anxiety of Mr.. Crisp
to have the senatorial question settled
before the meeting of the national con-
venuon. This anxiety is so great that
he does not appear to care about the well
fare Of the party. except in SO far as
it is necessary for his personal success.
We are inclined to think that there are
thousands of democrats in the state
who feel toward Mr.. Crisp just as Or.
Hicks does They have been his political
friends, but they have not been able to
accept his silver views and they do not
approve his purpose to have himself cho-
sen as the democratic candidate for the
Senate at any cost to the party

old-time political friends. If the national

A nGet Together CIuh.o

A movement was begun in New York
city last week which promises much good,
and which, it is to be hoped, win be ex-
tended to the country at large. Under
the auspices of a committee attached to
the Society for the Improvement Of the
Condition Of the Poor. com
pany made up Of milonaires,
workingmen and professional men met
privately in the rooms of the Industrial
Alliance. They discussed the relations of
capital and laboE with a result that cap
italists and workingmen will form a club
which will probably be known as the Get
Together Club" Its object as its name in
dicates, viii be to bring employers and en-
ployes into closer touch with each other
to the end that each may be benefited by
the better understanding that would be
bound to result.
The dependence Of capital and labor up
on each other is the basis upon which the
pestlent agitator works, to the dissatis-
faction, disadvantage and pecuniary loss
Of both capital and labor The agitator
fattens upon the misfortunes of the labor
ing classes, whose wrongs are magnided to
outrageous proportions; and when there
are no real wrongs. imaginary ones are
manufactured for the occasion. AS an in
stance Illustrating how the asitators profit
by labor trouble, it may be mentioned that
The man who is responsible for one of the
greatest and most disastrous strikes in
the history of this country drew from the
working people-the strikers chiehy-a sal
airy Of 5000 year during the continuance
of the strike, and is to-day drawing the
same sum as pay for going around the
country fomenung discomfort among the
laboring classes.
Get Together Clubs" such as the one to
be formed in New York, would deprive the
labor agitator Ctheno Of his occupation.
Employer and employee would be brought
in touch with each other and discuss and
adjust their difference between themselves.
There would be no third party to the nego-
| Citations. except 10y mutual agreement. The
movement Is one fun of promise. 1t de-
| serves ali the encouragement that may in
any manner be given TO it.

He was Entitled to a Sent.

A story is told down east of comical
old fellow who was elected to the legis-
lature a decade or more ago. says the
Lewiston Journal. He had never before
gone farther away from home than BAN

there he rather exeitedly inquired of the
station lOungers where the state house
was, and for a joke was told to "go

visitors 10 watch the Citadel boys win
the first prize and applaud them for their
proficiency. The News and Courier gave
the May week celebration the benefit of It's

its extensive circulation, advising every
body who could to visit Savannah and
enjoy the entertainment offered. 1t some
times occurs that neighboring cities are
bitter rivals and dwell in perpetual en-
nifty toward each other. But there is no
rivalry between Charleston ana savan-
nah. Each is the others good friend and
wen wisher.
