Makes the food more delicious and wholesome
ABSOLUTELY PURE

We invite tns attention Of our
readers to an article from the pen
Of Senator McLaurin, copied On
our first page from L2slie's Weekly.
It teens with logical conclusions as an
argument for industrial expansion
and is in this respect brilliant
success; but as reasons for territorial
expansion, it is dismal failure. Ter
ritorial expansion does not necessarily
precede or follow the industrial de.
velopment of the South. The Sena-
tor admits this in citing the case OF
the Richmond LOGON otive Works in
competing with the world io export,
log locomotives, and in that OF the
Maryland steel company furnishing
rails for the Siberian railroad. It
will be noticed that in neither case
territorial expansion by this govern
ment preceded or followed the indus
trial Developments referred to. II
territorial expansion is prerequisite
factor to industrial development, as
the Senator argues, then this nation
must have first acquired the world
by purchase or otherwise or the Rich
mond company could not compete
with the world in locomotives. The
fact that the world has not been ac-
ouired is conclusive evidence that
national expansion is not necessary
for industrial expansion and conse-
quently is not 1.-the hope Of the
South"
It is true that the South needs new
markets as an outlet for her surplus
products, but these can be and will
be opened up by agencies other than
territorial expansion. England and
the balance of the civilized nations
need many of the products of the
South. There is healthy, legitimate
and increasing demand for her raw
and manufactured materials, and
this demand, with many products
far exceeds the supply. 1t is also
true that "our Southern mauufac-
turers" of cotton goods ''have reach
ed the teening millions of the East, "
but it is equally true that this indus
trial activity was begun long before
the imperialistic doctrine of McKin-
ley and Mark Hanna startled the
American people. Territorial expan-
sion neither accelerated, aided or as.
sisted this demand. Rhe East
needed our goodss1d this need Gre
ated demand which was supplied
by the Southern manufacturer. They
ha5 the money and wanted our
goods; we had the goods and wanted
their money.
Read the article and draw your
own conclusion. It is only by an in
ter change of opinions that logical
deductions can be arrived at.

a Voice from the Tomb.

The Lexington Dispatch has tne
following:
1--WE notice that many, if not ail'
of the old time anti newspapers are
Justify crying peace, peace, and loV-
inoly talk Of dead and buried faction
slism, vet there is remarkable una
ninit7 among them ccncerlDg tneir
advocacy of Col. Hoyt, a conservative
II the dead past is buried, why 90
we find them urging the election OF
one of their number? II the fires OF
fsctionalism have been extingulsheo,
why are they so solid for Col. Hoy'!
From the outlook it really seems that
the Conservative forces have not dis
banded, but are as strongly united
tcdsv as they ever were IN the past
and that all this cry of peace, peace
when there is no peace, is for the
purpose Of disorganizing and defeat
ing their old time enenies-the hs-
formers"
"The above is absolutely the only
expression tnat we have noticed tnat
recalls the fact that some years ago
the Democrats were divided into
Conservative and Reform factions. 1t
was an issue then, but it has been
buried, and caonot bsresurreeted Tor
anybody's benefit now. 1t Is only
spook that our contemporary SEES.
s.If there is any bitterness IN the
campaign, it is shown by candidate
Patterson against Governor Nc
Sweeney, whom he has charged with
not Only not enforcing the dlspsnsary
law but with patrorizing blind tigers,
Aod both these gentlemen were pro-
nounced ''Rzformers" in the days re-
ferred to by our esteemed contempo-
rary, as we learn by consulting the
dusty records Of ancient history.
Greenvllle News.
Our mountain cotemporary does
not deny that Colonel Hoyt, by rea-
son of being a Conservative in the
"ancsent" past, mot later than two
years ago. will receive the solid vote
of the Conservative element. Ii
there are now no factional lines, if the
fire has been extinguished and there
are now no longer any warning eie-
ments within the party. and a
spirit of brotherly love perVades the
reunited organization, why is it that
the erstwhlle Conservatives are al
most to man supporters Of Con-
ssIyaeive for Governor? If they are
in earnest about burying the dead
past, why don't they give some tangi-
BILE evidence of their earnestness by
a div'~ion of their voting strength!
This would be toe logical sequence OF
a cessation of hostilities, if genuine
peace existed. And this not being
the case, we are constrained to be-
lieve that this socalled peace has ex-
istence only in the Imagination OF
'.Reformers" so as to divide their,
strength and insure the election Of
Conservative as Governor. i this is
''spook" it certaialy is Clothed with
sll the elements of reality. Is is no
desire of ours to rake over the ashes
of the dead past and kindle afresh
the smothered fires of factional strife,
but when the Conservatives profess
one thing and act just the opposite,
we contend that psace is a sham and
delusion. Wounded birds generally
hutter.

Swell the Surplus.

A number of Chinese were charg-
ed in the District Court with receiv-
ing stolen goods. The men pleaded
guilty and it was shown that young
children were in habit of stealing
bottles Of samshoo from the wharves
and selling them at the price of 45
cts. a bottle to the Chinese.
Judge Wilcox gave the Chinese a
good lecture saying that their con-
duct could only encourage small
boys to continue their criminal &C.
'tions and each of the defendants
was fined 500 besides paying costs
and promising to pay the owners of
the stuff the full value of the stolen
goods. The Judge added that 1T
was his duty to swell the surplus.
