Success and Its Cause.

The phenomenal popularity of the guns
and ammunition made by the Winchester
Repeating Arms Co. New Haven. Ct, is
not surprising when the great pains and
care taken by this celebrated house to put
nothing but perfect goods on the market
Is considered. Every gun they make is
tested for strength. action and accuracy,
and unless II comes up to the high Win
chester standard it never leaves the fac
tory. Winchester ammunition is made
with equal care. every different cartridge
or load being tested before il is loaded for
market. Winchester guns and ammuni-
tons are unsurpassed. as results show

Death of Mrs. Parker.

After q long illness Mrs. Lucia WardlaW
Parker, wife Of Hon. VIM. h. Parker, died al
their home In this city last Friday morning.
Mrs. Parker was truly:a keeper at home
the queen and centre OF household which
has been blessed by many happy days.
Her Iife.work was at home, and al
her thoughts and energies were directed TO
the rearing and preparing OF her children for
active duties in the higher walks OF lie
While che was true and loyal TO her church.
vet II was in the household where her best
and truest work was done.
Men and women may conceal the evil that
is within them or they may fail to exhibit to
the world the nobler character and the better
impulses which may live in their hearts, yet
those who rear families may see their own
real selves truly reflected in the life and char:
acter Of their children.
Judged from this standpoint Mr.. and Mrs.
Parker have reason TO be satisfied with thelr
own selves. They have been we'll mirrored
in the life and character Of their children.
Mrs. Parker was womanly woman. Her
carriage, her grace Of manner, her kindly
heart her cultivated mind, and her devotion
to those who were near and dear to her COM
manded the respect and admiration of all.
The funeral occurred in the Episcopal
church on Sunday morning. conducted by
her, pastor the Rev. Edward McCrady. At the
grave DR.. ]. Lowrie Wilson said fervent
prayer. The attendance Of citizens was large

Geographical Politics-SectiOnal HIS
tories-RebelliOn.

Just at this time the public mind is being
agitated on two or three public questions.
lst. The word rebellion" as applied to
the late war, has exercised chiefly genera
ton which has come on the scene of action
since the conclusion of hostilities. AS rule,
we believe the old soldiers do not object to
the word.
I'd. School histories are receiving attention
because of actual or alleged partizanship.
Sd. The election of Judges is being dis
cussed. The question OF the domcile OF some
OF the Judges is a question which has come
forward, and this perhaps Is we'll. The public
mind will settle down to do the right.
Those who object to the reelection OF any
of the Circuit Judges should urge other rea-
sons than the fact that they once lived out
side the circuit. That objection might have
counted when their names were first proposed
for election, but now since they were elected
and have become bona fide citizens of the
Circuits for which they were elected, the cry
Of non-residence doesn'tapply. These Judges
are now domiciled in their Circuits and are
entitled to all the benefits and privileges OF
that residence.
In this, we have nothing TO say for or
again st any Judge. but spirit of fairness and
justice, 1t seems, would suggest the propriety
Of fighting against their reelection on some
reasonable and just ground. II any Judge is
inefficient and lacks the necessary knowledge
Of the law, then, deal squarely by saying so.
Fight him hard, and hit him hard, but don't
strike below the belt, don't use a subterfuge.
II any Judge is not orthodox In the matter
of politics, and 1t is desired to turn him out
for that reason, why just come out openly
and above board and do so. Don't raise an
unjust hue and cryA Don't fight under cover
II there are any personal reasons why any
OF them are Objectionable state the fact, and
hit manly blow.
II any Judge is wrong on the liquor ques-
tion, and 1t is desired to put him out on that
account, say 50. But don't try to urge An OBJ
lection which is totally and absolutely un-
founded 30 far as this election is concerned.
Fight fair.

Southern Cotton Mills.

Manv Southern newspapers have cited Wltn
the pride the fact that the South was forging
ahead In the building of cotton mills, ana
seemingly gloated over the fact tnat we were
getting ahead of our New England friends.
Well, now, the fact is. that the money o'
New England has been a factor In the build
jng of the Southern Mills. There are very 1e"
mills in the South, where the majority OF tne
stock is not owned by New England men.
In one of the largest OF the Spartanburg mills
we believe the home people own about one
eighth OF the stock.
OF course the South is mighty glad toget the
help of Northern capital. but we submit that
It would be matter of pride and income, 100,
II our people owned more Of the STOCK ofthe
cotton mills. The presence Of cotton mill Is
q benefaction to those who may receive prof.
liable employment in them, and the conse'
ouent activity in all the business circles ben
efits everybody, but 1t would be Of still great
or benefit II Southern people could draw the
dividends.
Everybody who can do 80 should take
stock In q cotton mill.
Stock in q well managed cotton mill ~
worth much, and those who own stock IN the
Abbeville Cotton Mill will likely find that IL
will be q good Investment. This editor mas
faith In the venture, and has invested money
In It. In the belief that 1t will prove safe and
profitable Investment. We have no advice 10
give anybody. We show our faith by our
works. II you want anything that we have
bring along your stock, and you can get any
thing that we have on hand for fair ex'
change in stock. Ifyour conscientious scru-
piles, or your patriotism. is In doubt as to the
propriety Of holding the stock-or II you are
scared-just banter this editor for barter and
exchange.
