Representative Tawney, OF Minnesota,
passed through the city lass night en- route
home, only stopping loaS enough to take
dinner with Congressman Hull, OF Iowa,
Mr.. Tawney has spent the last three weeks
n the state of New York and says that all
talk Of free silver sentiment spreading
among the farmers is sheer nonsense and
that the Republicans will carry the State
by a probably unprecedented plurality.
He also expressed the belief that New
York city would return Republican
majority.

 There are quite a number of negroes residing in Selma and Dallas county who went through the Confederate war, and with an inexpressible love stood by their young masters until many of them were consigned to the dust.
 One of the faithful ones is Edward Harris. a barber by profession now em- ployed by Bob Johnson. Harris lived at Jackson, Miss. and when his young mas ter called for one of his servants to go with him into the war Harris at once volunteered and was the faithful ser want of MT. John Haley for nearly four years. The company in which MT. Haley enlisted was mustered into regular ser vice in the Northern Virginia army and was in the memorable battle of Manas- sas and many other hard-fought battles of the war. Harris received two severe wounds and lay long time in the hos pital. Just before the close of the war MT. Haley was killed and this faithful servant prepared his body for burial, and after putting headstone at his grave made his way back to Jackson, Miss. On reaching his home he at once sought out his mistress falling on his knees and crying aloud, Mistress, this Is all I could bring you of John; he is dead. Then he handed to the broken hearted mother lock of her gallant sons hair. Harris immediately returned to Selma and has since resided here.

Pura En1n.


 Butterinc is much abused product. As a matter of fact it is pure, sweet, wholesome, and infinitely preferable to ordinary country butter. A special correspondent of this paper recently visited the factory owned and operated by the Armour Packing Co.,, of Kansas City, manufacturers of the widely ad- vertised Silver Churn Butterine. A five story building is perfectly fitted for the scientific preparation of this food product. Everything is spotlessly clean; all appliances are the latest and most improved, and every precaution is taken to secure the production of an absolutely pure and wholesome food: All processes are under the direction of a foreign chemist who has made the skilIful combination of pure sweet fats the study of his life. Prof. Charles Chandler, of New York City, says: "The product is palatable and wholesome and I regard 1t as most valuable article of food"
 Prof. J. s. w. Arnold, Medical De- partment, University of New York, says: IA blessing for the poor, and in every way a perfectly pure, wholesome and palatable article of food"

AN OBJECT LESSON.
South CaroIinas Infant Tobacco Industry Brings S1 100000 Per Year to
 the State.

Charleston, s. C., Jan. 31.-The News and Courier will publish special edition tomorrow devoted to the tobacco growing industry of South Carolina. About ten years ago the News and Courier under took the work of establishing a new crop in this state as a relief from the curse of too much cotton. It distributed to- bacco seed and tobacco literature among r the farmers of the state and succeeded in arousing great interest in the new crop. In it's review of the industry to- morrow the News and Courier will say: From the statistics gathered it Is shown that there are II ,S65 acres actually reported as having been under cultiva- tion, making total crop, at the average yield given, of Il ,S65, 900 pounds. Actual sales reported to the 18th of January are within a fraction of 4,000,000 pounds, showing that nearly $4O0,000 has been paid for the tobacco sold to date from something over Il 900 acres of light lands.
 For instance, tobacco men who really know-farmers, warehouse men and buy ers-estimate the total output from the Darlington market at not less than 4000- 900 pounds, and the fact amply and ac- curately confirms this statement. To- bacco was sold in Darlington in large quantities, much was shipped direct from that depot and from other railroad sta tions throughout the county by farmers and not less than one-third of the entire crop is in the hands of the planters to- day. Ten million pounds, and probably not one ounce less, is what the infant to- bacco crop of South Carolina is today. It is still in its infancy for as state crop 1t is just one year old. in addition to the other considerations mentioned above some of the tobacco growing sections were, of necessity only, not included in this article. Many pounds were grown in these sections and the indications are that many more acres will be added to the present number. It must be remem- bered that only a few years ago South Carolina's crop of tobacco was simply nothing. Not one acre of ground, not orfe single, solitary silver trade dollars worth of tobacco was cultivated or sold. Today large and rapidly increasing figures tell their own story. Tobacco farms, barns pack houses, prizeries, warehouses. buy CTS and factories are becoming a strong and representative part of our liveliest towns. The business. already of large and dignifed proportions promises to even rapidly increase The future has golden opportunities. Taking the esti- mated reports of Darlington-and these were made by absolutely reliable and well posted tobacco men-the value of the South Carolina crop for 1895 was not less than $1 0000 000

AtLynchburg.

Lynchburg, Jan. 31.--The Liberty bell special, bearing the famous relic and its escort arrived here over the Southern railway at $50 o'clock this afternoon. Although the skies were lowering and rain threa tened at any moment, about 1000 people had assembled at the union station and, as the platform car bearing the bell came into sight, broke into en- thusiastic cheers. Mayor Smith of Lynchburg boarded the train and extend ed a cordial greeting to the bell and the members of the escort. He introduced to the crowd Mayor Porter King of At lanta, who spoke briefly, referring to Virginia as in one sense the state where American independence was born. At the conclusion of MT. Kings speech rain began to fall The train left at o'clock for Charlottesville, where the night will be spent.
