ly told the Governor that in our
opinion the people do not want a
primary this year, and if he had
to act on the designations, the
people would be better satisfied,
if he were to make the appoint
ments. provided he appointed
two new men, then it would be up
to the General Assembly to elect
two Senators for the unexpired

If Senator Tillman has been
put in a false position then Col
onel Jones is to blame, for if he
had not. said anything about

wanting in patriotism and we do
not believe they can be frighten-
ed or seduced from duty by the
appeals of narrow-minded poll
ticlans. We believe that when
the matter is properly presented
they will support such measures
that will lead to the expansion
and upbuilding of the South.
We favor progressive public
measures, and hope to see the
day when the progressive De-
mocracy of the South will take
charge of her destinies, and
make her the richest, the happi-
est and most influential section
of our land.
In celebrating this grand cen
tury and a quarter anniversary,
let US all look back over the past
history of this nation, and re-
ioice that from weak and op-
pressed colonies amid the saw
ages of the forests, we are now
leaders in civilization and the
greatest nation of the earth. Let
US who look forward to the future
and take advantage Of our present
splendid opportunities. Let US
study the problems which con-
front US and repudis.te any effort
at intolerance. Let US make
this free country in fact as well
as in name, by frowning down
any attempts to prevent free
thought, free speech and free
action.

Our System of Notation.

Some system Of notation has been
used since time out Of memory. The
first record we have Of it is Of figures
written with q stick on fat surface
covered with sand. Before that all
calculations were made with pebbles,
beans and the like. Even now the
Chinese do their calculating with little
stones or leads strung on wires, In
frame. The Romans first used vertical
lines-I. II. III, etc.-to express num-
bers. The Arabic figures, which we
commonly use at the present time, are
Of much earlier date.
The Arabic system is chiefly yalu-
able on account Of the great conven-
ience it affords by giving a figure
value according to the place it occu-
pies in the line. By this system the
most enormous sums can be expressed
by the ten little characters which form
the numerical alphabet.

GONZALES STILETTO.

In the Columbia State of June
29th editor Gonzales devotes
nearly two columns of it's leading
editorial space, in reproducing
and commenting on an editorial
which appeared in The TIMES
last issue The account of what
took place on the Governors ar
rival from Chickamauga is taken
by editor Gonzales as a sweet
morsel to roll under his tongue,
and it afforded him an opportuni-
ty to indulge in little spiteful
things about US. He goes out
side of the matter in issue to
bring his venom into use. Editor
Gonzales intimates that we are
not always truthful, but in the
editorial referred to he believes
we told the truth. It is needless
to undertake q discussion with
Gonzales, for he wont fight fair,
but now that he has lntimated
that we do not write truthfully,
we challenge him to cite an in
stance when we have written a
falsehood.. Let him cite an in
stance where we have taken ad-
vantage of a man by making
public his private letters, or
betrayed a confidence. Con
zales has lived in Columbia a
long time, let him show where
his townsmen have reposed con-
tdence in him, either politically
or financially without regretting
it. When he has done this, then
we will feel more like being on
an equality with him. Gonzales
alludes to our being VIRTUALLY a
postmaster under a Republican
administration" What has our
connection, near or remote, with
the postofice, got to do with the
questions at issue? Under Cleve-
lands administration we was
appointed to the position of post
master, and was able to hold that
position until a constitutional
question was sprung, when a
change was made giving the
position to a member of our fam
lily. We believe that if Manning
had a suitable Republican, a
change would have been made
by the Mckinley administration
when it went in charge. But
whether under a Democratic or
Republican administration, we
do not!believe that Mr.. Gonzales
can obtain sufficient endorse
ments to secure an appointment
for any position where confidence
is needed.
We do not mind a decent dis
cussion with an editor, but when
it comes to coming in contact
with a man who runs all around
hunting up irrelevant matter to
fill space, we are at loss to
know how to compete with him.
The petty hings in Mr.. Gonzales
article are characteristic of the
man, and it really looks as if he
cannot help making himself dis
agreeable.
