has great chance for a great politi-
cal move.
Mr.. Hemphill thought it likely that
he would have statement to make
during the day, but said that he did
not care to be quoted until he was
entirely ready to fire his gun, but
later decided to await developments
and say nothing.
The Senatorial situation is appar-
emily getting very much mixed up
just at this time.
The Jones' Hampton incident is
bound to have its effect, and to-day's
broadside against Congressman Lati-
mcr in the Yorkville Enquirer is
being extensively figured on, and
will be used as sweet morsel
against Mr.. Latimer.
1t was stated to-day on pretty
good authority, but not officially
from Gen. Hampton, that he had
received such urgent appeals to
make tho race, and there had been
such a spontaneous response to the
suggestion, that it was altogether
likely that Gen. Hampton would be
in the race for the Senate no matter
who might enter, and that his health
would be the only possible bar to his
candidacy.
1t will be appreciated that it would
not be altogether the thing for Gen.
Hampton to be directly quoted or to
talk for publication until all of the
prospective candidates are heard
from.
There arc great many who seem
to think that the present conditions
will have a decided bearing on the
coming fight for the Governors posi-
ton.
The whole incident shows that
from political standpoint it is a bad
thing to launch candidate too early
and that the greatest of political
dangers is to start out too previous.
A campaign meeting about this
time would clarity things TO con
siderable extent and it is somewhat
surprising that some of the wide
awake towns have not started IN
such meeting for business purposes.

Tho Boil Worm.

Yesterday morning Mr.. w. 0. Guy
showed us handful of young cotton
bolls perforated by the boil worm.
Some of these bolls were half grown,
while others were barely out of the
blossom when attacked, but at what
ever stage, they at once shrivccd and
died. Asked if the damage was cx-
tensivo enough to effect the crop,
Mr.. Guy said it would cut it off from
a fourth to third or more. In fact,
the August crop is practically de-
stroycd. But for the worm, he says,
tho cotton crop would have been
heavy. Mr.. Guy tells us that the
boil worm is identical with the worm
that bores into the points of roasting
ears, and that it is much worse in a
wet season. Chester Lantern, Octo-
Dor 9th.

HAMPTON FOR THE SENATE.
Jones Withdraws and Asks Other Candidates to
Withdraw In the Old Generals Favor.

Columbia, October GA good
deal has recently been said about
Col. Willie Joncs's position in the
Senatorial contest, and be was called
upon this morning to see him con
cerning the report that he was not
going to make the race. In reply to
my inquiry he said:
81 have concluded not to enter
the race for the United States Sen
ate next year, because l feel that
cannot give up my home business
interests unless there be a special
demand for it. | have very large
personal acquaintance with the
Democrats of this State. Judging
from letters received and many per-
sonal interviews l feel satisfied that
my chances for nomination to this
distinguished position would have
been fully as good as that of any
candidate whose name is now men
toned in connection with the Sena.
torship. would have no political
fear to run against any man in this
State, except two, namely, Senator
Tillman and Gen. Hampton, because
] believe either of them could beat
me or any other man in the State.
"By the way, | think the very best
solution Of the Senatorial contest
would be for all of the young men,
who are now candidates for the
place, to announce their withdrawal
on the condition that Gen. Wade
Hampton accept the position and
let the old general be elected with
out opposition.
"Without any reflection upon any
candidate now in the field, l believe
that Gen. IIamptons views on
national politics meet with the ap-
proyal of practically all the Demo
Gratis in the State. Such happy
and gracious event as the selection
OF Gen. Hampton at this particular
time would make the Democratic
party Of this State absolutely ire
sistible and save US much agitation
and feeling, when there is 80 much
else for our people to do.
81 happened, in 1877, to be one of
the six Democratic boys who carried
Gen. Hampton on our shoulders from
the platform where he was inaugu-
rated through the streets Of Colum-
bia to the hotel, and to-day again it
would be my great pleasure to CO.
operate in clcvating him to this high
position, because believe it would
be for the good of the great Demo
cratic party Of my State"
