- 1t is too early yet, maybe, to write the
history Of the smallpox scare in this state.
There are still cases in Spartanburg, Or
angeburg, Greenville, and probably else
where. The Spartanburg doctors dag
nosed the frightened patient through a
glass window and unanimously agreed
that he had smallpox. In Greenville,
one physician had the timerity to say it
was not smallpox. Others disagreed.
Both sent for experts and both were sls-
tanned but the majority were on the side
of smallpox, and smallpox it must be.
In Orangeburg, DR.. Lowman, the chair
man of the board of health, after care
ful examination, during which he was in
direct contact with the disease, said chick
enpoX, and not much of that; but the
representative of the state board of health
said it was smallpox, and as tine state
board of health is necessarily Of higher
authority than little local board, the
opinion OF the state board OF health Is
entitled to all due Difference. Smallpox
used to kill. So far as has been heard
from, nobody has been killed. Smallpox
used to pit. So far as has been heard
from, nobody has been pitted. But that
this is smallpox we arc not going to deny.
We know nothing about these things,
and others who are better informed say
that it is sure smallpox. We suspect,
however, that if it really is smallpox, it
is just putting in pleasant vacation, UNI
accompanied by its pitter and killer. and
consequently not inclined to intlict amy
other evil worse than widespread scare.
Even this, however, seems to be losing
its point.

FREE RAW MATERIAL"
Unique Acknowledgement of Generous
Pounding.

Pounding.
Rev. Oliver Johnson, pastor of Nee
ly's Creek A. R. church, and who
lives at Leslie, recently received kind
testimonial at the hands of members of
his congregation in the shape of things
of which he was not at loss as to
how to make use of, and in the last
issue of The Associate Reformed Pres
byterian he makes acknowledgement
as follows:
"This is to certify that I am not alb
solutely sure whether it was Ralph
Erskine's mother, or Ralph himself, or
Ralph's wife, who came forth from
the grave; but of this am absolutely
assured, that one day last September
the people who live around about Ca
tawba Junction came to the manse at
Leslie in buggies and wagons and left
distributed about the barnyard and
the house a considerable amount of
"free raw material"-the kind that is
essential to the running of such an es-
tablishment as 1 have here. Dear
brethren and readers, you need not
expect me to enumerate. A slight
shudder always passes through me
when l pick up the paper and read al
ter brother so and ., as he talks about
lard and hams az. chickens and corn
and fodder. Tne idea of a preacher
whose food is not more ethereal than
these carnal things; but we must 60
blazing it around in public print about
his need of hams, etc. But if the peo-
ple insist on thinking that ever have
occasion to use such things, will sub.
nit. The gratitude felt on the above
occasion is proven by the fact that l
still feel it and am prompted to men
ton it at this late day. There are evil
dences of the visit still lying about
me, tributes of an affection which
these people have manifested towards
me in so many ways. And silently
calling to me to show myself dlligent
in the work of the Lord. Whenever
they desire 10 come again, | shall be
cat Home to them"

We have no idea that the wide tire
bill, introduced by Senator Gaines, of
Edgefeld, will ever become law: 1t
would cause too much kicking, and a
majority of the members would be afraid
to pass it. We hope we are mistaken
but that is what we think. However, the
bill is good one, and would save to the
state in better roads and all that this
means, much more than it would cost in
dividuals to make the change from mar
row to wide tires

Speaking of soft snaps; about the
softest we know of in this state, is pro-
fessorship in a state college. There is
good pay and little work, and man,
with few restrictions, can come pretty
near to calling his time his own.

To the Editor Of the Indianapolis Journal:

TO the Editor of the Indianapolis journal
speak the sentiments of great many
actual veterans who belonged to regiments
the whole period Of the war, when say
that we are often wearied to disgust by the
performance of some men who are making
a great noise about their having been sol
diers and demanding political emoluments
in consequence thereof. These men are
continually bowling that the ''old soldier
does not get his share of the offices. Let us
look at the matter Take the state officers
the Governor, the lieutenant governor, the
attorney general, the clerk Of the Supreme
Court one judge of the Supreme Court,
two judges of the Appellate Court. the
deputy state auditor, the superintendent of
public buildings, the monument commits
sioners. the adjutant general and quarter
master general and several employees and
clerks about the Statehouse wear the
Grand Army button. Take Marion county
three or the four county judges were sol
diers, the county recorder. county assessor
ami one of the commissioners were soldiers,
the county clerk is the son of as good a
soldier as Indiana had in the service. In
each of the county offices veterans hold
clerkshpS or other positions. In the fed
eral offices, the pension agent and every
Republican holding a place under him was
a soldier. One deputy United States marshal
was a soldier, and another is the son of a
soldier. Quite number of the employees
of the postof &c, held there by the civil
service law are soldiers. and some are re-
tanned when younger men might better per-
form the rvice 1 may add that whenever
there has been anything like unanimity on
the part of the Republican veterans in Ma
rion county for good man. who was a
veteran, for county Office he has received
the nomination. At time there was a
clique of young place hunters who de-
manded that the "old veteran should go"
but these have turned now to denouncing
the civil-service law, or else have gone into
the silver party.
Veterans who have occasion to look up
the records of men who are so loud in de-
nunciation of the party for not providing
for the old soldier find that the length of
their howl is in inverse ratio to the length
of their term of service. There are men
who go about bowling for office, denounc-
ing Republican rings and that sort of
thing some of whom cannot place the regi-
ment in which they served. The term of
service of others can be traced from one
hundred days to six months. I recall a man
of six months service who is persstently
wearying the old veterans in the commu-
nifty about his claims as a soldier to office
Since the war this six months soldier has
had six years of public service. There are
hundreds of us who got three years and a
half of public service and some scars Now
will not he wait until we have q time to
speak? If the three years men were given
as much Office as this man in proportion to
the length of his service they would have
thirty-six years apiece. 1t does seem that
these men should have little modesty. and
that they should put it on at the present
time. VETERAN
