Care of sitting Hens.

All the necessity for care Is not end
ed when the hen is duly installed in her
three weeks task, and is sitting faith
fully. The Asiatic breeds Of fowls, in
Guiding such crosses as the Plymouth
Rock, are so persistent in sitting that
unless the poulterer tempts them off
to eat they may addle the eggs by too
much warmth and exclusion Of the air.
The egg is porous, and the young chick
must get all the air it requires
through the she'll. As Matching time
approaches, there is less danger of adj
ding the eggs by cold, even If the hen
is off some time. The warmth from the
chick will keep the egg from getting
cold, anyway. Sprinkling the eggs
with tepid water is useful where the
sitting is too persistent.
Poultry House Rake.
The poultry quarters should have
four or FIVE inches Of loan or road dust
on the floor for the fowls to scratch in
and dust themselves in, but this soon
becomes covered with feathers and
masses Of droppings. A tine-toothed
rake is serviceable in raking over the
pens, thus collecting all feathers, etc.,

OF the tariff bill The sugar trust and
othef great organizations which were
successful in manipulating the Demo-
cratic bill in their interests are hover
ing about, still hoping to get some
crumbs OF comfort out of the Finance
committee Of the Senate. They admit
that the bill Is far less advanta geous
to them than the present law, and their
only hope is for some amendments by
the Senate Committee or the Senate
but they add that there is little proba-
blllty of that. However, with the enor-
nous Interests at stake they can afford
to fight to the last, for it is generally
recognized that no tariff bill before
Congress for many years has struck so
hard blow at trusts and combina-
tons as does this one.

Another Convert to Gold Standard.
The associated press dispatch from
Lima, the capital Of Peru, printed in
our news columns yesterday, said:
''The Peruvian Government has sus-
pended the coinage of silver at the
prohibition against the importation of
silver coins after the tenth of May
next" Thus another mile post in the
worlds progress has been reached.
Since the first Of the year Russia, ia
pan and Peru have in quick succession
abandoned the free coinage Of silver.
These nations, scarcely pretending to
keep abreast with American progress
and enlightenment, have come to see
in advance of many Of our own people
the simplest truth that the old ratios
between gold and silver cannot be
maintained with free coinage.
The coinage has been suspended In
order to protect the silver already coin
ed and in the hands Of the people. With
a limited amount Of half-dollar dollars
in circulation a nation with fairly
good credit can maintain them at an
equality with gold in the market
Peru, by her action in suspending sill
yer coinage and by prohibiting the i'm
portation of foreign silver coin, pro-
claims to her people that she is going
to protect the integrity of her currency
and make every dollar Of it "as good as
gold" She is not only following the ex-
ample Of all the greater nations of the
earth. but such of her sister countries

senatorial Candidate Mayneld Jumps VI,
GoverDor Again ut And. rsnn

Especial to The Atlanta Journal.
Anderson, S c., August 4.--May-
field was the first speaker at tho
senatorial campaign meeting hero
today. He renewed his charge of
duplicity on the part of Governor
Ellerbe in the matter Of the metro
politan police and said:
''Elle: 'e told your representative,
Mr.. Ashley, that he would remove
the metropolitan police. He told
Representatives Weston and Bacot
that he would remove them but he
never told them he would require
every alderman to sign the agree
ment to enforce the dispensary
laws"
In conclusion, Mayfeld said:
Governor Ellerbe has spoken falso-
ly, not me. Ashley, Ilderton, Bacon
and Crum can show that the COVER
nor is the one who told the fulse-
hood"
Evans who followed Mayfeld,
said Ellerbe, did right in not re.
moving the police. He could not
see why Ellerbe should be called
honest and defended by McLaurin
and be twitted about tho police, for
Ellerbe had his experience to go by.
Evans said he had to apply the po.
lice to Charleston and had no regrets
or apologies for what he had done
and was not talking one way in Char
leston and smother way in Anderson.
There was nothing striking about
McLaurin'a or Irby's speeches.

ADDEvILLE, S. G., August 4.-Sen-
ator Tillman spoke here to. day before
an audience of thousand people.
His speech lasted ono hour and
twelve minutes. He was in fine trim
and made an excellent impression.
Tho crowd was generally with him.
He discussed tho dispensary, the
tariff, Clemson College and his per-
sonal record, He thought that the
dispensary was the best solution. of
tho liquor question and he favored
State control. He admitted that the
dispensary law had been badly man .
aged but blamed the management
and not law. He said the new board
of control had done.more harm to the
laY ttllssaati Judge Simonton had. He
said that the board should not be
elected by the legislature
He defended the Latimer bill and
said he introduced it in tho senate
before Latimer introduced it in the
house. He said he was glad Of one
thing, that Gonzales lost whole
nights sleep from fear of the bill
passing the house. He said that
Simonton was moro tyrannical than
Judge Bond was ut his worst.
He indorsed putting Charleston
under control of the metropolitan po.
lice. He disclaimed taking any sides
in Tho senatorial race and said that
all the candidates were his political
friends.
In answer to question he dis
cussed the tariff and defended Nc
Laurin's position on the same. He
said that he voted for everything that
McLaurin did in that bill.
Ho said that be was opposed to
protection but that if there was to be
a steal he wanted to get the share
due to his constituency.
He said that he was the only farmer
in the United States Senate and that
he represented thirty million of farm
ers in tho country. He said that his
speeches in the senate were as popu-
lar as they arc at home; that when
he rose to speak the cloak rooms
were cleared and the galleries filled
and that lie "threw rocks" there just
as he did at home.

Irby advanced to tho front OF the
stand and began speaking IN worry

seemed for once that he would be
howled down.
McLaurin and Chairman Herndon
requested that he be heard. Irby
was permitted to proceed and charged
that Governor Ellerbe had said he
attended to use tho constabulary
force to elect McLaurin. Cries of
"Hurrah for McLaurinl" "Sit down"
{McLsurin replied that Governor
lGllerbe told him he had said no
such thing, but he had said if his
administration WAS attacked, he would
have to uso his Influence in it's de-

Voices--Hurrah for Ellerbe. Hur.

McLaurin proceeded to close his
speech in happy manner and many
gathered around the platform to
shake his hand and congratulate
him on his magnificent reply to
the various charges Of sinister pur-
poses made against him.
This afternoon the expressions of
citizens from different sections of the
county show McLaurin to be Ear
in the load, if every other county
goes like Oconee. Judging from
the meeting to-day and preferences
OF the voters expressed since ad-
journment, McLaurin will win easily
against the field in the fret pri,

speeches on the Dingley tariff bill.
Their usual charges of Republican

Thrm to Governor Ellcrbo.

Last night there was quite q largo

ored people Of tho city at tho col
ored Odd Fellows hall. Resolutions
in regard to tho recent lyncbing in
Laurens county were adopted and q
committee appointed to wait on Gov.
Ellcrbe and present them to him to-
day.
Tho following address was pre-
pared and issued:
To tho People of the State and
Nation:
We Pgain bring before you our
grievances and hope that in the
namo Of justice and humanity you
will turn a listening ear to our ap-
peal end sympathize with us in our
deplorable condition. We have long
looked forth with prayerful hopo
to the final end Of mob violence, but
to our sad dismay we are compelled
to note an increase for tho worse, not
an improvement.
We thought that the late consti.
tutional convention, by the lynch
law clause, would greatly relieve our
State Of such occurrences, but just
last week Gray was brutally put to
death i'll Laurens county. Chris
Harris, if he has not been over.
taken and murdered, is now being
hunted by raging mob, and dis
order and confusion are rampant.
We appeal to the Christian hearted
and law abiding citizens everywhere
to exercise all their power in pre-
venting the reign Of mob violence,
for at tho hands Of mobs tho inno-
cent perish us we'll rs tho guilty.
In the struggle we hopo the assist.
nnco Of all who favor law and ordor,
because if tho system Of lynching
prevail tho lives aud property Of
every citizon in tho State will bo en-
dangered.
Believing the voice Of tho people
will bo the law Of the land, we pray
that such sentiment will be created
among those who desire tho suprem-
acy of the law that it will bo impos-
sible for a baud Of onraged citizens
to prostitute our form Of govern
ment.
We hope that the governor of tho
state will be encouraged in his eff
forts to uphold and defend The sacred
status, that peace and order might
take place of confusion and lawless-
ness.
Wo hopo that tho press of the
State, being n medium through
which Il great de% G5@ I'd can be
done, will copy this appeal, that it
may receive general consideration.
Refraining from worrying you
with any lengthy appeal, wo pray
that sufficient has been said to
arouse the minds of the readers TO
the surrounding Situation, and trust
the effect may bo to assist in Great.
ing favorable sentiment opposed
to tho mnrderous practice of lynch
law.
