Many of the G % b e readers will recall
the train load of reindeer and J4apland-
ers that passed through ST Paul, to the
coast over the Great Northern, for
Alaska, several years ago. 1t cost the
government good deal of money. Both
the deer and the Lapps developed an
unfortunate tendency to die off prema-
turely. One of the returning herd mas
tiers says that the climate of that part
of Alaska to which the deer and their
shepherds were sent was no more rigor-
Gus than that of Lapland in which the
animals and their keepers alike thrive,
but for some mysterious reason Alaska
food and Alaska conditions Of the wea tn
er were deadly to most of the two foot
ed and four-footed eXiles. 1t is puzzle.

Paper is entering largely in uses other
than that Of printing. Furniture made
of paper became popular in English
houses where there was desire to be
imposing. but where good solid furniture
would be too costly. Now decorators OF
houses even of those of wealthy peo-
pie, employ compressed paper largely, es-
pecially for paneling work for halls, cor
ridors, etc Very fine baluster rails are
also made in imitation of mahogany. The
houses of European artists are furnished
throughout with papier macf1e with metal
inlay Even flower pots and vases which
are generally taken for majolica ware
and porcelain afe~eomposed of paper as

In the Southern Christian ADJ
vOcate this week the editor, DR.
John o Wilson, prints over his
initials this pithy article:
AS Senator Tillmau Is trying to
escape deserved censure and to
make capital out of a controversy
he alone caused, it is well to re-
member and repeat to any who
may forget:
l. That while nearly all the
preachers Of our State advocate
prohibition, not one Of them had
assailed Senator Tillman, publicly
at least, previous to his attack on
them at Bennettsvllle.
2. That he came voluntarily
into the campaign and in his first
speech at Bennettsville asserted
There is an unholy alliance be-
tween the preachers and barkeep~
ers, led by Col Hoyt."
3 That he has not denied or
recalled this insulting assertion,
but acknowledging the language,
has attempted to twist the plain
meaning Of his words into some
thing no hearer of common sense
would understand of them.
4. That all protests by preach
ers, in sharp or soft words, against
Senator TilIman's speech, have
been occasioned by their natural
and necessary correction of his
offensive charge against them.
5. That while now PROCESSING
respect for preachers of the gos-
pei, he continues his misstate-
mcnts and Misrepresentation, his
efforts to put them in false posi-
tions and his disrespect in speech
and act.
6. That this is not the first time
he has manifested disrespect
towards men specially honored by
the christian people of our State.
Keep the facts before the peo-
pie. Do not permit the case to
be clouded. Hold Senator Till
man and his cause to the plain,
unvarnished truth !

Finger by finger Ben Tillman is
showing his hand, and the back of
it is toward Miles 3 McSweeney.
The tendency of all his remarks
about the enforcement of the dis
pensary law Is distinctly against
the governor. He would be for
Patterson, as the most serviie of
coattall-swingers, if Patterson
were not such weakling. But
as he could not possibly be elected
he is tending toward Gary. Gary
however, is pledged to local
option between the dispensary and
prohibition. If TlIlman supports
him on that basis he will 90 back
on his own word and record and
if Gary gets his support on a
straight dispcnsary basis he IN
turn will 90 back on his word and
record. So there is a quandary.
But depend on this: the dispensary
vote will be concentrated on one
candidate if TiIIman can manage
it by either speeches or winks, and
that candidate will own Tillman as
his maker.-The State.

Report on Temperance.

The Rock Hill District confer
ence, in session at Hickory Grove
last week on Friday, adopted the
following report of the committee
on temperance:
The NJ f Church, South, has
always taken strong grounds on
the subject of temperance. Her
Legislation on this subject is suffi- :
cient and in full harmony with the
teachings of Gods word. If our
members respect and observe this
legislation, drinking and drunken
ness will be banished from us, and
our church will be entirely free
from any responsibility in the
liquor traffic. Therefore, be it
resolved:
1. That we urge all members
to observe the legislation of the
church as contained in chapter V
of the Discipline, realizing that
the church is the "light of the
world" and is not to consult
popular opinion in dealing with
men and measures but the plain
teaching of Gods word IS to be
her guide.
2. That recognizing that the
liquor traffic in any form is an
enemy to the church, home and
citizenship of the state, we record
our relentless opposition to it.
3. That all right thinking men
recognize that Christian men and
women, and especially Christian
ministers, should oppose this evil
of the ages, we will consiste ntly
do SO in the future rs we have
done in the past. BY our record
We are willing to stand. We
cannot be driven from it by the
baseless charges of an "unholy
alliance with barkeepers." We
are the true allies of this uncom
nrnmisinr la,l,,ot,nn &c IN,l, -,
word: "Woe unto him that giveth
his nelghbor drink, that puttest
thy buttle to him, and makest him
drunken also" Let all men
know this has ever been, and al
ways will be, cur platform.

The YOrkYille Failure.
Judge Gage Refuses to Appoint a
Receiver for the Bank
Hope That the Bank and
1ill Both be Saved.

1orkville Special, July 3Oth, to
Charleston News and Courier.
The financial situation appears
much brighter today than was in
dicated in my dispatch of Satur-
day night. The information sent
then came direct from tho bank
officials, but it has since developed
that IN their decentralization they
exaggerated the situation. Judge
Gage WAS hero today to hear Pc
titlons for the appointment of =
receiver for the bank. w w
Lewis, counsel for petitioners,
presented petition that was
signed last Saturday by a majority
of the directors and some deposit
tors. w b McCaw, attor ney for
the bank, presented another peti.,
ton signed subsequently by the
same directors and numerous de-
positors; asking that the directors
he allowed to wind up the affairs
without compensation. 1t is
quite clear that the Sutro Mill has
been earning large profit on its
entire capital, and that it is still
capable of netting one thousand
dollars a month, even at present
prices of yarn and cotton. With
a little financiering it is easily pos
sib'e to bring the mill out safe and
1t Is possible to save the bank. 1t
Is only a question of back bone and
business ability on the one hand
against the baby act on the other,
and it now looks as if the neces-
sary backbone and business ability
is about to develop.
At any rate Judge Gage lefused
to appoint a receiver at tins time,
and allowed the directors and
stockholders of the bank 81 days
in which to work out their saliva
tion. AS the situation now stands
it appears that if the stockholders
of the bank stand firmly to the
rack they will save Mr. McClain,
of the Sutro Mill, whole, and
their own bank stock also. Other
wise they are likely to get badly
squeezed under the wreck of the
mill. The situation appears clear
enough to all and it is only o
question of the appearance of the
man for the emergency.

Says the Newberry Observer,
"Whilc the subject is up for dis
cussion, it is pertinent to remark
that the preachers were first at,
tackled in their alleged "'unholy
alliance with the old barkeepers,
and their protest at the injustice
and untruth of such an unwarrant.
cd charge is wholly in defense of
their position. The regulation of
the whiskey question is a moral as
well as political one, and If the
people of this day and generation
do not put more religion into their
politics, they will continue to SOW
to the winds only to reap the
whirlwind in harvest of iDcreas-
ing corruption and disorder" "
