to reports received by the Marine Hos

There may have been more heaithful
places than Marion, but II SO no official

rate of the phenomenally low figure of

rate in all the cities and towns was

Senator Hanna and the President,

The popular hope of tariff relief,
springing from the outspoken attitude
of the late president, and indorsed IN
bulk by President Roosevelt, seems
destined to be dashed to the ground.
That the president will weaken before
the assault of the protected interests
is every day becoming more apparent,
and that reciprocity will be slaug
ed in the house of its friends is certain.
The other day Senator Hanna spent
an hour with the president, following
close after the heels Of Senator Al
drich. While, of course, such reports
of the interview as those men might
give to the press would be colored by
their own wishes, The New York Her
aid has learned enough to say that
President Roosevelt is not convinced
Of the wisdom of opening up the ques-
ton of tariff revision. Senator Hanna
will try to persuade the president that
the tariff should not be touched, and
ne will not have much trouble IN doing
it. -
The more's the pity that the presi-
dent should be so easily turned from a
course which, if not absolutely ac-
ceptable to the people, would at least
have been a step in the right direc-
ton. On the very day that President
Mckinley spoke so earnestly against a
continuance of the policy of exclusion.
Senator Hoar, addressing Massachu-
setts audience, declared in favor OF
governmental plumber of the people for
the benefit of the few. The newspaper
organ of one member of the cabinet
assailed the motive of the president
while he was writhing upon bed OF
pain, and Senator Warren could not
allow the period of mourning to pass
without a declaration that no matter
by what name it might be called, IT
would be the same old game Of multi
plication and division. The only hope
for realiztion of the promise of Presi-
dent Mckinley lay in the Endorsement
of the new president. With the power
Of patronage and veto President
Roosevelt might have whipped in such
number of republicans as to have
passed reciprocity law in which the
people at large would have some con-
sideration. But, with the presidential
action neutral1EeQ, bAeEe 1s NO0 sn0
faintest hope for relief.
The Constitution must express It's
regret at such: a elimination. 1t may
be good party politics to profit by the
mistakes Of others, but the country is
entitled to the best that every party
can do. It takes the patriotic inhu-
ence of all combined to bring about
tho best results. With orr tariff legis-
lation placed in an advanced position
by the republican party, that much
az least would have been secure, but
as tits, the whole battle remains to be
fought over. It. isAan int lerable thing
that the views Of few interests
should outweigh those Of the nation,
and that the mass Of the people should
be compelled to SITTER from the Off
cial brigandage known as protecti on.

The Week as Told by Bradstreet's.

New York, Nov. 15.--Bradstreet's
tomorrow will say: Favorable features
are still largely in the ascendent and
the current of business is running full
the country over. In some directions,
indeed notably in the matter of for
Warding of general merchandise, grain,
ore, coal. iron and lumber, complaints
of insufficient transportation facilities
have become more marked. Season
able weather conditions at the south,
however, have not been entirely favor
able, and complaints of slowness of
collections due to the backward cotton
crop or the lower prices paid therefore,
have been more Numerous. A favor
able feature as regards this latter
situation, however, is the turn for the
better in prices.
Demand for iron and steel is heavy
and nearly all lines share in the
strength. Pig iron is active at all
markets and 25c per ton premium is
freely paid for immediate delivery.
Stocks are smaller than month ago.
Steel billets are also in demand and
find ready sale at s2S per ton at Pitts
burg. The rail situation is one of
special strength, the leading interest
being reported as having its output
for the entire year 1902 booked.
Manipulation in print cloths some
weeks ago caused an advance in the
face Of declining raw cotton, and this
week the reverse has happend. Print
cloths have lost one-eighth Of cent.
while raw Gotten has gained 3-l6c.
Home demand has been rather limit
ed, but printed fabrics are firmly held.
In woolen goods the scarcity of mems
overcoatings has been marked and de-
mand in this line is active. More or
ders for spring delivery are being re-
ceived by the mills.
Aside from the strength in raw cot
ton, the features have been the in
creased strength in such cereals as
corn and oats. due to the sprinsging
up of better demand, some light
frmness in lard and a seasonable ad-
vance in butter and eggs and other
dairy products. Wheat and also -four
have weakened due mainly to realizing
upon the late advance, but renewed
speculative interest is evident on ev-
erv decline, and, though prices are
slightly lower on the week. the tone
of the market is much better than
some weeks ago.

Sensation.
The get rich easy scheme which
was written up in the Times the
other day seems to be the sensa-
lion of the day in three States.
Every paper in the State OF
South Carolina and Georgia is
copying the article, each with a
plant from its own people to the
same effect and number of let
ters have been received by the
Times asking information on the
subject of the scheme,
A-few days after the publlca-
ton of the article several OF the
ladies here who had been anxious
ly looking for their checks for
some three months, got them, and
were encouraged to think that all
was well. They have been sent
TO Monticello, Fla, for payment
and may be paid all right, but the
confidence Of the people IN the
get rich easy scheme has been
sadly shaken.
The following letter has been
received from man in Florida
who seems to have been the party
referred to. though at the time
the article was written the party
and his residence was not definite
ly known by the Times:
Publisher Daily Times, Florence,
Dear Sir: My attention has just

I would be glad if you would
fully investigate the matter you

have not made a mistake. Let

gated the matter far enough to
assure itself of the truth Of the
statements published, and would
advise those concerned to unite
in the matter and have the postal
authorities investigate the matter.
The civil authorities of Florida
may also be of service in the
matter.

matter says:
