he country at large can feel all the
good effects of the revival of trade; but
the revival is a certainty, not Il specu-

SENATOR TlLLMAN'S PROGRAM.

An evening paper in Washington
publishes an article on the political
position of Senator Tillman, In which
1t says that since his speech in the
Senate, Senator Tillman of South Caro-
lima has received numerous letters
from Democrats appealing to him to
state his position, otherwise his speech
in the Senate would be of great harm
to the party. In reply to letter from
a friend in South Carolina, Senator
Tillman writes as follows and puts
himself on record without doubt:
:" / have your letter of February s.,
and appreciate very much your kind
words of commendation. In ordor to
preserve the unity of theI white Demo-
cracy of South Carolina we cannot act
on your suggestion not to send dele
gates to the national convention at
Chicago.
"We have already captured the State
Democracy. We are the State Demo
cracy and we must go to Chicago as
ally ourselves with the free silver men
of the West. 1t would be fatal blum
der not to send delegates to the ma
tional Democratic convention and
would only be putting 1t In the hand
OF our goldbug enemies.
"If the national convention does not
adopt a platform TO suit us and put on
man above suspicion as to his loyalty,
we can then leave the party, but not
before. The effort OF every true friend
of silver and financial reform should
be directed to having our State Demo
cratic convention composed solidly o.
men of their way OF thinking, so as tc
have 1t act as q unit"

oAMPSUN IUPE,
Newberry, s. g., Feb. 18th, 1896.

Congressman I'll. ID. Money, who has
been elected to the Senate from Miss
issippi, will not take his seatIuntil 1899.
The reason he was elected so long ahead
OF the time of the beginning OF the
term Is that under the new Constitu-
tion OF the State of Mississippi the Leg.
islature will meet only once every four
years. The next session OF the Legisla-
ture will be held In 1899. just think
OF thespeaceful time they must have In

fBlature only once In four years.

Outstanding against these assets are
liabilities to the amount of $40, 253.67,
which is due by the State for wines
and liquors pufchascd, making u net
balance of assets above liabilities Of
$243, ,8l6.57, which amount represents
the net earned profit to the State at
the close of the year, and this profit
has been placed by the Commissioner
to the credit OF the general fund of
the State. In conformity to clause
In the new constitution, providing that
all future earnings Of tho State dis
pensary shall go to the schools OF the
State, the Commissioner will place to
the credit OF the school fund all net
earnings which shall hereafter accrue.
From careful analysis of that pro-
vision of the constitution, 1t will be
seen that the school fund will not be
entitled to any portion of the net
earnings to December 81 of $243, 1857
shall have been covered into the State
treasury to the credit Of the general
fund. Hence it will be eighteen
months at the earliest before we may
expect any increase in the school fund
from this source. am happy to state
that the State appropriation Of $50 900
has been refunded to the State from
the pet earnings of the dispensary and
an additional $4,000 surplus covered
into the State treasury to pay the ex-
penses of the constitutional convention.
