For the Marlboro Democrat.

The Laurons Advertiser, .of last
week said:
"Coals are not brought to New Cas-
tle-wOol is imported to q goats house.
Watch that the entire Egyptian cotton
output is not dumped upon the
great cotton patches Of Col. c.. S.
Mccall or Chancellor johnson over in
Marlboro and Marion. No wonder
that Frye and Hoar are coming to the
help ct McLaur!n and Tilllnan.
In noticing the above paragraph the
Marlboro Democrat, published right
at McCalPs home, says: '"The Advcr-
user was evidently hard up for an item
or else he did not know that q cotton
mill not q dozen miles from the great
patches of Mr.. Mccall, has been using
Egyptian cotton, and q defamation
made by this mill that il a tax is placed
upon raw material the mill will use
none but raw otton, Crawl in
brother" This is vindication enough
Tor the action of Senator'S Tillman and
McLaurin in voting for the protection
OF cotton.
Very well, wise brother. Then it is
all stun about ~"bringing the mills to
the cotton" We, the cotton producers
OF South Carolina are IN Il nice pickle
If cotton can be produced in Egypt,
handled and laid down ten thousand
miles distant over ocean and land at
the Marlboro mills in competition with
cotton grown at their gates. We should
double the capacity and duplicate tho
mills. And by the way it is c~onsoling
to The ADVERTISERS to learn that
there is Il cotton mill down in
Marlboro and that the liberal pro-
prietors are anxious for a tarir to en-
chance the price of the raw material
they consume. The cotton planters in
that noighborhood should encourage
those mill owners. And thus we have
another paragraph, don't you see.

 There is great rejoicing among the Daughters of the Revolution over the victory won by the independents of the society recently, when it's new constitu- tion Was adopted by an overwhelming vote ant Mrs Henry Sanger Snow of Brooklyn became its president general
 Mrs. Charles B. Yardley of Orange, N. J, until then occupied that place. but she joined the ranks of the opposi- ton party, which was defeated, and re- signed, whereupon Mrs Snow, the vice president, took her place.
 Mrs. Snow is prominent socially in Brooklyn and is an active member of the Women's club in that city. She traces her descent to the carly colonial days. She is the daughter of the late David Brooks, the electrician. On her mothers side she is lineal descendant of Matthew Gilbert, deputy governor of Connecticut in 1861. Others of her an cestors were officers in the Revolution. Mrs. Snow is graduate of Vassar col lege. She is leader and has much tact and diplomacy. She is an ardent suf- tragist, but she goes about her work in the cause in quiet, gentle way. She is also philanthropist and is known to many poor families in the slums of Brooklyn, besides being identified with a number of well known charities. She believes ill women and hopes for more for women from the ballot than from anything else. According to her idea, it will equalize wages between men and women.
