shelters and charged up those long
exposed hillsides through a hail of
death. There are several men here
in the bullring with me who went
through it all and who have told me
all about it.
While the hillsides are bare of vege-
tation, the valleys are tangled and mat
ted wildernesses of tropical growths.
The first evening I rode through there
every stitch of clothing was torn from
my body. On that trip We found the
skeletons of two American soldiers.
We knew that they were our men by
the accoutrements that were lying
near them. I found also many relics,
including buttons off of Spanish coats,
a pair of spurs, cartridges of every
description, a machete, and pack of
playing cards.
There has been great deal of con-
troversy as to whether the Spaniards
used explosive bullets. They did. I
have quite number that 1 picked up
in the Spanish trenches. I also have
two cartridges with brass bullets. One
of them I took out of a gun that I
found in a Spanish blockhouse, and
the other I picked up from the ground
near by. There is no doubt of the
fact that the Spaniards used these sav-
age missiles of mutillation and gan,
creme whenever they had the oppor!
tunity.
1t is my desire to ship The ENQUIRER
some relics as soon as I learn what
will be most acceptable. I am kept
very busy with my duties; but when 1
find time, I will write again about such
matters as may appear to be of interest.

THE PRIMARY.

Method of Nominating Candidates May
Become an Issue.
Columbia Record.
There are signs of a purpose to at
tack the primary system of selecting
Democratic nominees. Every now
and then there is an outcropping of
opposition to the primary. There has
been no concerted fight upon it yet,
and probably if any is made it will not
be begun until the session of the legis-
lature in 1900. But the primary will
withstand all attacks, for, in spite of
all inevitable drawbacks, it has dem
onstrated its superiority to the old
convention plan. But for the primary,
Earle would never have defeated
Evans, and but for the primary it is
doubtful if there would have been any
or much opposition to Ellerbe this
summer. As straws showing how the
wind is blowing, The Record repub-
fishes editorials on the primary pub
lished by two Sumter papers. The
Sumter Herald, which supports Eller-
be, says:
"The primary system of making
nominations is fast falling into disfavor,
and that too by the very men who 80
loudly clamored for it. A charter
member of the Reform movement re-
marked the other day that a return to
the old convention plan was advisable;
that we always got better officers un-
der it. Many are thinking and talking
the same way"
On the other hand, the Sumter Item,
which opposed Ellerbe, defends the
primary thus
"There is much complaint from all
sections of the state that the primary
is unsatisfactory, and there is grow
ing demand for some change for the
better. We capdidly admit that the
primary is not perfect and leaves much
to BE- desired but what better substi-
tute do the kickers offer ?" Not
suggestion has been made. The pri-
mary is infinitely to be preferred to
the old convention plan and we prefer
holding fast to the primary. 1t is
thoroughly Democratic, and when fair
ly managed is the best means ever de-
vised for ascertaining the wishes of the
members of the party. What is need
ed is clearer and more explicit set of
rules, a law requiring the rigid and
impartial enforcement of those rules
and suitable penalties for fraud or
failure to carry out the rules"
And so it goes. But, while the pri-
mary has lost some of its friends, it
has converted many of its enemies and
is today stronger than ever. The can
didate who opposes it exposes his un-
willingness to trust the people.

YOUR ANCEsToRs.-Nearly every
one has more or less ancestors, and
mathematically inclined genealogist
has figured that even a fellow that
couldn't join anything but church
has had during the last 25 generations
no less than 45,476,S62 ancestors, of
whom 22,73S, ,432 were living at the
same time 25 generations back. Call
ing the average lifetime of generation
333 years, that would take US back to
the year of the Norman Conquest,
1866. Each of us had at the time of
that historic event something like
100000 of ancestors roaming about
the various principalities and jungles
of Europe, Asia and Africa, not to
mention the South Sea islands and
Australia, and of these il is reason
able certainty that at least one par
ticipated in the battle of Senlac, either
under Duke William or King Harold.

HAsTY WORDs.-We are told that
we ought to think twice before we
speak. Sometimes we are advised II
we are feeling unkindly, to count ten
before we open our mouth. Yet hasty
words ofttimes fly from our lips, in the
moment of excited feeling, and before
we have time to think twice or count
half of ten, the harm is done, the
keen word has flashed like dart into
some gentle heart. These hasty words
are spoken, too, most frequently be-
tween those who love each other. We
control our speech fairly we'll when it
is with strangers or ordinary acquaint'
ances we are speaking but with those
we love best we are less careful. We
let our worry or our WEAKNESS make
US irritable, and then we utter the has
ty words which, five minutes after,
ward, we would give all we have to
recall. But such words never can be
recalled. They may be forgiven, for
love forgives till seventy times seven
times; but the wounds, the scars, re-
main.

THE VESTS Coal OUTPUT.-The
%, 100000 tons annual output of west
ern coal is plainly insufficient to supply
the local western demand. The higher
price it commands shows not only this,
but also that while the output on the
whole is increasing, the increase is not
commensurate with the increase OF
population in the trans Mississippi re-
gion. There are coal beds throughout
the western states amply able, when
worked, to supply more than the home
demand, and the anthracite area OF
Colorado and Wyoming is bound in
time to rival that of Pennsylvania and
West Virginia. The development OF
the western coal industry offers one
of the most promising fields for the
investment of capital.
