KEEP YOUR EYE ON THEM.

Whenever a man, protesting that he
is better Democrat in his revolt
against the party than his neighbor who
abides in the ship, gets Republican sup
port and approval, it will do well to
keep your eye on him then and forever
afterward.
In the campaign of 1896 one H. F..
Jones, of the county of Allegheny, an
nounced himself as an independent
Democrat" for the Legislature. He
was "a better Democrat" than any other
man in his county. He received the
solid Republican vote, by private under
standing, and fooled enough Democrats
to get elected. He took his seat on the
Democratic side, but when the crltlcai
time came he showed his true cOiorS
and refused to abide by the Democrat
ic caucus in the Senatorial election. he
became indignant when this paper
showed him up in his true colors, and
still said he was "a better Democrat
than folks who impugned his Democra-
cy." In the next campaign he went
oyer-of course-bag and baggage to
the Republican camp.
At the last term Of Wilkes Superior
Court, this same Jones was convicted
of perjury in a court presided over by
Republican judge, in which nearly
every officer was Republican, by a
Jury composed almost or wholly If Re-
publicans, in rock-ribbed Republican
county. The Chronicle thus gives the
facts:
1.-The matter grew out o. some county
claims. In 1892 a claim of $3o.44 was
issued to Jones. In 1893, Jones repre-
scented that he had lost the claim in
Rock River and was given duplicate.
In 1898. Jones asked for second dupii-
cate, and made affidavit that the cri-
ginal claim was lost, ana that by mis-
take he had torn up the duplicate and
that neither had been paid. 1t develop
ed that the original had not been lost
and that the duplicate had been paid il:
1893. showing the affidavit was untrue
in every respect. The question for the
Jury only was to ascertain whether the
affidavit was wilful and with intent to
defraud or was it made honestly by
mistake. The jury found the former
view and returned verdict of guilty OF
perjury.
mo sentence has been imposed as yet.
A petition has been gotten up asking
that the verdict be set aside. If this
fails, the case will go to the Supreme
Court"
This is what makes us say: Keep
your eye on the "holier than thou" poll
tician who caters to and gets Republi-
can support while antagonizing the par
ty to which he claims allegiance.

THE HALF HAS NEVER BEEN
TOLD"

And now comes the fact that China can
no longer claim to be the only country
that produces the rush from which the
famous Chinese mating" is manufacture
ed This great monopoly can no more
belong exclusively to the Flowery King
dom. Along the banks of the Trent and
Neuse rivers and their tributaries and
marshes, beginning about fifteen miles
above Newbern, there grows beautiful
rush from three to seven feet high, sam
Piles of which were lately submitted to a
Boston expert and declared by him to be
the identical species of the Chinese varie-
ty and from which the Chinese mating"
is made. The supply of this rush in this
State is positively inexhaustible. 1t is a
perennial exceedingly hardy and vigor-
state the stalks are from the size Of a
knitting needle to that of a lead pencil.
1t is conservatively estimated that about
three hundred million yards Of Chinese
mating is shipped into the United States
alone annually from China. 1t will there
fore be seen what the discovery Of this
North Carolina rush really means to the
commercial world, and it's Importance to
the men who will engage in it's manufac
ture. Truly the great and diversified
wealth OK the Old North State is con-
slant and continual surprise 1.-The half

THE DEVIL WANTS ALL.

II have travelled the world almost
over said DR.. Jones to an Ashevlle
Citizen reporter, and have come to the
conclusion that the country is in a process
of fermentation. 1t reminds me Of bar
rel of cider turning into vinegar and in
stead of the devil taking the hindermost
he's for 'em ALL"
One who reads the ultimatum OF Eng
land to the fighting Beers; the outrage
and burning at the stake in Georgia; the
holding IN Of trains in Texas and ILL
nois; the franchise steals in Philadelphia;
the police corruption in New York. the
epidemic of drownings, murders and
wrongs-one who reads only these things
is apt to agree with DR.. Jones. But there
is brighter side which gives warrant
for more optimism.

PROTECTIONIsTs ALARMED.

The New York Sun sees in the bounty
on exported fruit the death-knell of the
protective system and calls upon Sec
rotary Wilson to desist until Congress
can consider it fully. IT says-and SAYS
truly-that 1.-The departure in principle
and the initiative in policy are of enor-
nous Importance" because this is a
bounty on exports" Secretary Will
son has only $4,000 with which 'to
guarantee against loss the persons ship
ping fruit abroad under its supervision.
The Sun, an ultra protection organ
has supported the plan Of increasing
or reducing the tariff by executive ac-
ton or by treaty. Why is it not equally
right for a cabinet officer to make the
new departure of giving bonus to
fruit growers who export their pro-
duct? If it is right to give subsidy to
ship owners, why not to fruit growers
If to the steel trust, why not to the
cotton growers?
1t is because the Sun knows the whole
protective system is built up on injus-
tice and inequality that it wants to
prevent the bonus to fruit growers. II
knows that it's general extension de-
stroys the special advantage which
present beneficiaries enjoy, and has the
wisdom to see that such extension will
raise up enemies against the whole
scheme of robbery under the forms OF
law as the Supreme Court has declar-
ed the protective tariff to be.
Mr.. Babcock's proposition to stop the
bonus to the steel trust and other
trusts, Mr.. Wilson's proposition to
give bonus to fruit growers, and Mr.
Lubin's plan to give bonus on agri-
cultural products eXported-these and
like suggestions alarm the protection
lists who are crying out against any
tariff tinkering" as the only hope OF
continuing the present bonus to the
beneficiaries Of Linsleyism and to deny
it to all others.

A GROWING EVIL.

One of the crying evils pf the times
is the growing habit by justices of the
peace of "suspending judgment on pay
ment of the COSTS OF course there
are cases where such action is neces-
sary, but it is altogether too COM
mon. 1t frequently looks like costs are
the object for which courts are es-
tablished. Besides it robs the school fund
of money that justly belongs to it. II
the judicial officers did not suspend judg-
ment so often, the fines that ought to be
paid would go into the school fund and
offenders would be deferred from yioat :
ing the law.

TAR AND FEATHERS NEEDED.

A lady in Philadelphia, who has nc
symptoms that make treatment neceS-
sary, recently received this letter from
quack doctoring concern which she
had visited:
Dear Madam: Don't you want to get
well, or are you waiting until some
frightful hemorrhage compels you to
begin treatment? Don't trifie with your
life. 1t is too late when the hearse is
at the door,
Is there any punishment short of tai

Mr.. Schwab says that a college edu
cation is a disadvantage to business
man. Why didn't he convince his boss,
Mr.. Carnegie, of this view before Mr..
Carnegie gave fifteen million dollars to

lege education is a help to young man

EARTH AND MOON.
Curious Facts That Carry You
Back a Bit.

TIC Garth "~-'ol"cs on its axis once
in "A hours. Millions Of years ago the
day was % hours; millions Of years be-
fore il was 21. As we look backward
into time we find the earth revolYi-s
faster and faster. There wos q time,
ages ago, long Ueiore geology begins,
when the earth was rotating in a day
OF five or six hours in length. In the
remotest past the earth revelved in a
day Of about five hours. 1t could re-
volve no faster than this and remain
a single unbroken mass.
1t was at this time that the moon
was born-separate broken off, from
the parent mass of the earth. The
earth was then a molten fiattened
sphere of lava. It's whsle body was
fluid The tides, which now are small,
superficial, and, so to say, local, we've
then universal and immense. They oc-
Cured at short intervals The whole
surface OF our globe was affected. And
the corresponding lunar tides in the
fluid molten moon were indefinitely
greater still.
Our day is now "a hours; the dis
tance of the moon is now 100000 miles.
long, the moon was in contact with
the earths surface. 1t had just broken
away from its parent mass. AS the
length of the terrestrial day increased,
so did the distance of the moon. The
two quantities are connected by mex
orable equations. If one varies, so
must the other. Whenever the Tota-
ton time OF a planet is shorter than
the period Of revolution of its satellite,
the effect of their mutual action is to
accelerate the motion Of the satellite
and to force it to move in a larger or
bit-to increase its distance, therefore
The day of the earth is now shorter
than the month-the period of revolu-
tion-of the moon. The moon is there
fore slowly receding from us, and it
has been receding for thousands OF
centuries. But the day Of the earth is,
as we have seen, slowly growing long
er. The finger Of the tides is always
pressing upon the rim of our huge ny-
wheel, and slowly but surely lessening
the speed Of its rotation. SO long as
the terrestrial day is shorter than the
lunar month the moon will continue
to recede from us.

Daily Item Nov. 2eth.


In our columns few days ago, we
reported that Mr.. T. j. McCutchen
had five bales of cotton stolen from
him at night, and that the cotton was
found the next day at Mannville.
We received the letter given be-
low from Mr.. Nat Barnett yesterday
morning. It explains the matter fully
and we publish it in justice to all par
ties concerned and for the information
of the public. The following is Mr..
Barnett's letter:
Mr.. Editor: You should state on
what premises at Mannville the five
bales OF cotton stolen from Mr.. [. j.
McCutchen were found. For the in
formation of the public and in justice
to Mr.. R. J. Bell, who lives at Mann
vile, will state that Mr.. Bells COW
lot is some distance from his dwelling.
In this lot in a shed Mr.. Bell found
five bales of cotton. He did not know
who put this cotton there. On hear
ing that Mr.. T. j. McCutchen had lost
five bales of cotton. Mr.. Bell went
at once and notified Mr.. McCutchen,
that such cotton was found in his COW
she'd.
Mr.. R. J. Bell has been living at
Mannville for twelve years and is well
known as an honest and upright citl-
zen. Nat Barnett.

Watson-Dibble Marriage.

Orangeburg, Nov. 2o.-This after
noon promptly at 6 O'Clock the wed
ding of Whitfield William Watson and
Miss Mary Vendley Dibble took place
in st. Paul's Methodist church in this
city. The wedding was one Of the pret-
tiest that has occurred in Orangeburg
in a long time. Miss Dibble is the
beautiful daughter of former Congress
man Samuel Dibble and Mrs. Dibble,
and the groom is the popular cashier
of the First, National bank at Bates
burg, formerly cashier Of The State
company. Columbia.
Miss Dibble was one Of the most
popular young ladies of Orangeburg
and the people of the town were out
en- masse to see her wedding. They
had decorated the handsome little
church in most attractive manner,
sznilax, crysanthemums and imitation
roses playing an important part in the
decorations. Over the altar was a
handsome design wrought in crysantbe-
NUNS representing a true lovers knot.
tssmilax festoons, a stand of ferns,
another of palms and other floral
designs completed the decorations Of
the altar. On the two side aisles were
handsome floral arches. Through
these the flower girls passed and they
we're followed by the members of the
wedding party.
