WEATHER AND CROP REPORT.
Weekly Bulletin OF the Weather Bu-
reau for South Carolina.
COLUMBIA, S. c., July 3, 100

oOlUbBlA, .. VI, july s, l3UO.
During the week ending s d. m,
July I'd, the temperature averaged
normal, and ranged between q maxi
mum of 81 and minimum of 66 de-
grees. 1t was extremely favorable on
growing crops.
Heavy rains prevailed during the first
part OF the week, and on June 10Th. In
the southeastern, northeastern, and
northwestern counties the amounts for
the week ranged from / to 6 inches,
while widely scattered localities had
less than an inch. The average for the
State was 2 80 inches. This following
the previous weeks rainfall, rendered
the ground too wet for cultivation gen.
orally, and, in connection with the high
temperature, caused grass and weeds
to grow very fast, so there Ia general
complaint of foul crops. Locally bottom
lands were Overtlowed and crops de-
strOyed, and lands were badly washed
and quilted. The outlook for staple
crops, over large portion of the state,
Ia reported very Door, but in the Con.
garee and lower Wateree valleys, over
a large portion of the Pee Dee section.
and In portions OF Lexington, Edgefeld
Saluda and Greenwood counties crops
are unimpaired and promising. Dry
weather and sunshine are needed for
cultivation and to clean fields. Locally
high winds damaged corn and fruit
trees.
Upland corn is generally in good con
dition, but some Is turning yellow and
firing, while practically the whole
crop lacks proper cultivation. Much
corn was destroyed on bottom lands by
overllows. Late corn on stubble lands
Is doing well.
The general condition OF cotton is
poor, on account OF too much moisture,
lack OF cultivation, and the prevalence
OF lice. Some fields have been aban-
doned, or plowed up and planted to
peas, while the complaint OF grassy
fields Ia now general, except as to sea-
island, which is in excellent condition.
Cotton on sandy lands looks sickly. In
the western portions much has not
been chopped to stands. 1t Is gener.

The Democratic Leader States His
Views On the Questions OF the
Hour.
In the June number of the North
American Review, Hon. oWilliam j.
Bryan, the candidate OF the Democ
racy for president, discusses the issues
OF the approaching campaign. He be-
gins with these words
The Issue presented In the cam
paign of 1900 Is the issue between
plutncracy and Democracy. All the
questions under discussion will, in
their last analysis, disclose the conflict
between the dollar and the mana
conflict as old as the human race, and
one which will continue as long as the
human race endures."
From that point the issues OF the
currency, trusts, and imperialism are
discussed very much in the same way

diences In different parts of the coun-
try, with the exception that the colo.
