The United States, through it's minister
at Constantinople, has renewed its demand
on the Sultan for an indemnity for the pill

many times and will fail at last unless the
demand is backed up with a show of naval
force that will bring the Sultan to terms.

Uses of Buttermilk.

According to medical journals,
long experience has demonstrated
buttermilk to be all agent of
superior digestlbility. 1t is in
deed true milk peptone; that is,
milk already partially digested,
the coagulation of the coagulable
portion being loose and flaky, and
not of that iirm indigestible nature
which is the result of the action
of the gastric juices upon sweet
cows milk. 1t is a decided laxa-
tive, a fact which must be borne
in mine in the treatment of ty-
phoid fever, aid which may be
turned to advantage in The treat
ment of habitual constipation. 1t
is diuretic, and may be used to
advantage in some kidney troubles.
1t resembles Koumiss in it's nature,
and with the exception of that
article, it is the most grateful,
refreshing and digestible of the
products of milk. It is invaluable
in the treatment of diabetes, either
extensively or alternately with
skim milk. In some cases of
gastric ulcer and cancer of the
stomach, it is the only food that
can be retained.

A Farmer Indeed.

We had the pleasure of meet
ing yesterday Mr.. J. H. Manning,
of Little Rock, Marion county,
S. G. He was on his way home
from the convention of the Cotton
Growers Association, which held
two days session at Galveston.
The attendance of delegates was
small, only four states being
represented.
Mr.. Manning is a fine specimen
of manhood, and of the independ,
ent farmer. He was born and
reared on the farm. His father
was killed during the war, when
be was only eight years of age.
Heis now forty years old and lie
has been working on the farm all
of his life. He has never failed in
20years to improve his condition.
When he began farming, he planted
fifty acres in cotton. This year,
be has five hundred and fifty acres
in cotton and two hundred and
fifty in corn, oats and peas. He
never fails to raise meat for his
family and to have surplus.
Mr.. Manning contends from his
own personal experience, that any
farmer who devotes himself to his
business can do well. In years, 20
he says, have never failed to make
money at farming. / can make
both ends meet with 5-cents cotton,
but 1 can make money at 7 cents

MRS. e. H. EDWARDS DEAD.
A Well known l. ady of Granite
vile Drops Dead in
New York.

New York, Aug. 90 Mrs. E. II.
Edwards, 45 years old, resident
of Graniteville, S. c., one of the
women merchants who visited New
York, dropped dead in front of the
Fifth Avenue hotel this afternoon
Her fall alarmed people on the
street and within q moment the
thoroughfare was crowded with an
excited mass of humanity. A po'
liceman summoned an ambulance
from the New York hospital, and
when the surgeon examined the
woman and pronounced her dead
he removed the body to the West
Thirtieth street station house
where it now is, When the wo'
man's clothing was examined
checks to the amount of $1OS were
found, also $50 in cash and re-
turn ticket home.

Can Towns License?

All over the State the original
package stores are being opened up
and in very short order, it is safe
to say, they will be in operation
in nearly every town in the
State. They cannot, it appears,
be licensed and there seems to be
no way in which the city and town
councils can get any re 5enue from
them. The dispenary law repealed
the license law and a leading attor-
ney yesterday, when his attention
was called to the fact that the
councils of several towns were
passing license ordinances di-
rected at such places, said
that while some may claim
that the towns have right to pass
such ordinances and collect
licenses from the propfietors of
such places, Judge Simonton's
decision meant that such dealers
were merely merchants and if
any license at all was imposed it
could not in any event exceed that
paid by a dry goods, grocery, or
ether merchant in proportion to
the volume of business done. The
decision, be said, removed liquor
from the police regulation under
which all previous high licenses
were imposed and cannot be called
upon now. In his opinion, there
was absolutely no way in which
the owns could legally pass license
ordinances direct d against such
stores.
On the other hand, an attorney
equally prominent stated that, in
his opinion, the State Constitution
gave the cities and towns the
right to pass such ordinances and
collect licenses. Under the pro-
visions of the Constitution he
thought that the towns aud
cities-all incorporated towns, in
facs-had ample power to pass
such ordinances and collect a
revenue from these stores.
Another point raised against
the possibility of imposing licenses
on original package stores is that
the dispeusary is in the liquor
business and no license could be
imposed upon any one for selling
liquor without the dispensaries be-
ing required also to pay that license.
The dispensary is as much a liquor
dealer as the original package man,
and the ordinance, if passed, would
have TO apply to both. So there
you are.-The State.

A Legal Nut To Crack.

The dispensary law deprived the
private citizen of the right to
traffic in any way in Intoxicating
spirits and the power heretofore
exercised by the towns and cities of
licensing the traffic to be carried
on by their citizens. The United
States Circuit Court came along.
overruled to o large degree the
restrictions placed upon the traffic
by the dispensary law and opened
it up again to every one who felt
disposed to carry it on. Now the
conundrum is, if the dispensary
law is ineffective to prohibit the
carrying on of the traffic why
should it not be also ineffective in
prohibiting the municipalities
from imposing license tax on
dealers.-Charleston Critic.

commemorate this victory. A

Edgefeld county should be

One of the new counties took away
Edgefeld's senator, and she is now
without representation in the upper
branch of our state Legislature.
This is in direct violation of
not only the spirit but the letter
of the constitution, and it is not
right to wait until the legislature
convenes to right the wrong. The
clause creating new counties should
have provided for this, which shows
that our new constitution was the
