THE special committee of investigs-

majority and minority report To the

The Bedford inquirer OF last week.
in double-leaded article, serves notice
on the Hon. J. Esrlsion Thropp that il
VIII oppose him for denomination, aud
gives its reasons therefor. Things must
have come to a pretty pass in Bedford
county when the old, Conservative In
quirer, whose lifelong policy has been
TO preach aud practice the gospel of
peace, aud to frOwn down factional
strife, feels impelled To change its
course and to openly advocate the de-
feat of a candidate at the Republican
primaries. The provocation must be
gsest indeed, or there must be great
wrongs that need righting. for, in the
opinion of many of the friends Of the
Inquirer, had its editor lived in the
days when the Old Testament was writ
ten, it would have contained the Book
of Lutz, instead of Job.

SOUTH CAROLINA, it is estimated,
ranks nsxt 10 Massachusetts ia the
number of its cotton mills, and expects
To lead her by the end Of 1900. This is
not exactly the sort of a future for that
locality to which Calhoun, McDuffie
a ald the rest of the Palmetto States
r representatives. in Congress looked in
the old days. Yet nobody in South
CTOlina regrets the change in the con-
ditions ia that community. South Car
Olins is larger, greater and wiser than
sone of her distinguished citizens of
half century ago supposed she would
be by this time. The change in her
condition is one of the marvels of the
century.

The Republican primary election for
the nomination Of borough officers will
be held Saturday afternoon of this week.
Every good citizen who is a R-pu5li-
can, and most good citizens are, should
attend this primary. 1t is as much the
duty of the honest voter to attend the
primary of his party rs il is to attend
his church or pay his taxes. The very
foundation of our Government begins
at the primary election. 0ne of the
principal reasons for so many incompe-
ten. township aad borough officials lies
in the fact that 50 many good citizens
fad 10 attend the primaries.

CRIPPLED LINER.
The CuItic Has Been Towed to Anchor
 age at Queenstown.

Queenstown, December 16.-The White Star liner Cultlc, Captain Caven, from Liverpool, December 4, for New York, was lowed to anchorage here at o'clock this morning by the British steamer Kansas City, Captain Lewis, which sighted the Cufic, December in latitude 51.3 north, and longitude 21.A west, the day the White Star liner lost her propeller Owing to the terrific weather it was impossible to con meet the hawsers until December 12. These parted in a fierce gale and the Kansas City only succeeded in resuming towing the following day. The hawsers broke again last night off Kinsale but after short delay, towing was resumed. Off Cork a local tug aided. In one of the attempts to connect with the Kansas City, MT. Cros- by, an officer of the Cufc, while trying swim to a line attached to a bpoy, was drowned. The Cufic will await the arrival of tugs here and will then proceed to Liv- erpool. She carries no passengers.
