Cheohce, August l0..-As we
haven't heard any news from this

This community is blessed with
good rains, which are beneficial to
crops.
Mr.. and Mrs. Jessie Ross and little

Mr.. and Mrs. Reuben Lee recently.
There is always a welcome for these
good people.
The Cbcohcc High School is under
the supervision of Mir. j. S. Coilcy,
of Salem. We are glad to notice
that the trustees did so well in select
ing Mr.. Collcy rs teacher.
We are real sorry to note that
Chcohcc has no preacher this season.
We hope some good preacher will
visit us and conduct n series Of meet
ings.

because he knows that tho facts and
arguments are all against him. His
hope is to keep those facts and argu-
ments from the people of South
Carolina.
Accept my condolences on the un-
happy and absurd situation into
which the would-bc dictator has led
you. You may be assured that he
will find crevice through which to
crawl, leaving you to stand the fire
when it becomes hot, and that hav-
ing used you he will cast you aside
like many he has formerly used.
l desire to proclaim to the world
that you do not represent the in
tclligence, the Democracy or the
people of South Carolina and to
you and Senator Tillman, that he has
never been my master and shall
mover be; that he shall not escape
the vengeance that must surely fall
upon him when the people have been
made to understand his motive, his
methods, his dcbased character and
his shameful record. TO that grand
conservator of free government, the
reserved patriotism and common
sense of the people I make appeal
against partisan intolerance and
tyranny. Very respectfully,
John Lowndes McLaurin.

1t is no cause for wonder that Se-
nator Tillman should seek to make

to power by venomous abuse of many

opposed him, for which he has al

him while he needed friends. Nor

Party policies are determined
from time to time by party elections

all Of your committee together, has
not the power to exclude from candi-
dacy nor the polls at the Democratic
primary the humblest citizen of
South Carolina who declares and
pledges himself to support the party
nominees. Suppose in 1890 the Ex-
ecutive Committee of the State had
ruled out of the party all who en-
gagged in the "Farmers' Movement %

An Outing In tho Mountains.

Dear Courier On the last day of
July our party left Walhalla for
brief mountain trip. We visited
Highlands, Horse Cove, Cashiers
Valley and other points of interest.
We reached Mr.. w. w. Russell's
at sundown on the first day and
spent the night at his hospitable
home. Several guests were already
there and our party that night mum
bcrcd about thirty. We reached
Highlands the next day at noon and
stopped with Mr.. David Norton as
our attentive host. His father, Rod.
erick Norton, was related to the Nor.
tons of our county, being cousin
of the late Judge j. J. Norton. EIe
related many interesting stories
about the early settlement of his
section Of the country. In those
days deer and bear and other game
aboundcd and many adventurers
sought delight in the chase. He
told us how his father once had a
fight with bear in laurel thioket
and came near losing his life. Being
hard pressed by tho boar, he threw
down his hat which was caught up
by the bear and torn to pieces. In
this way he managed to reach the
open woods when he drew his knife
and slew the bear in close encoun-
ter.
Highlands is a beautiful town and
of recent years has become a cele-
brated summer resort. 1t was
founded twenty-three years ago by
5. F. Kelsey and Mr.. Hutchinson.
The latter soon sold his interest to
MIR. Kelsey, who remained there
until about twelve years ago. The
climate is superb and very invigorat-
ing. The altitude is 5000 feet.
Visitors find accommodation at seye-
raj up.to-date hotels. Fine lawns
beneath native shade trees afford
great pleasure in many places. From
the top of Satula mountain one has
fine view of the surrounding coun-
try. This point is 5000 feet above
sea level. by the use of field glasses
on clear day one can see for many
miles in all directions.
The next day we visited Horse
Cove. This beautiful valley took
It's name from the custom of raising
stock in the cove. BY reason of fine
pasturagc, stock could live there
nine months in the year. One of
the first settlers of this community.
Col. Mckinney, had some Cashier
stock and one fine filly which had
strayed off was found in another
valley which thereby became known
as Cashiers Valley. This, too, has
become great resort. Here is the
summer home of the Hamptons. 1t
was n rare treat to us to visit the
place where the old hero, Gen. Wade
Hampton, spent so many summers.
Cullasaga Falls, on Sugar Fork
Creek, hcadwatcrs of the Tennessee
River, is also grand place. Here
we spent few hours viewing grand
sights. With such falls as Cullasaga.
Tallulah, Glenn, Issaqucna and
Whitcwater, we wonder why our peo
pie go so often to Niagara and other
points i'll search of scenery.

Jones, Vest, Bacon, Bate, Berry,

Tillman and McEncry, who voted

with the Democrats. Senator Till

with the Republicans. See Con

1877.
In the second session of the same
Congress Senator Tillman and my
self voted together on 80 of 95 roll
calls. One vote on which we differ
ed was motion to adjourn, intended
to defeat resolution calling upon
the President to intervene in Cuba.

floods, caused by the overlooking of
the Yang Use, have caused the death
of many thousands in China. The
river has risen forty feet and for
hundreds Of miles the country is a
great lake, with only tops of trees

the houses to their roofs. At Kiu

and two feet of water stands in the
foreign settlements. Lower down

IRRIGATION DAM BROKE.
TaIley West of wichita Falls. Tex, Flooded
Steady Rains at Other Places Make
the situation Serious.

Wichita Falls, Tex, May 21.-The ir-
rigation dam on Holiday creek, six
miles west of this city, broke Monday.
Two hundred feet of the wall gave
way, and the whole valley was soon
flooded. This was the largest reservoir
in Texas, and was only finished about
so days ago. It was more than one
mile in length and when filed with
water would cover $500 acres of land,
sufficient quantity to irrigate TO-
900 acres. Holiday creek has been
dry until the excessive rains COM
menced last week, and the reservoir
had been filling up.
There has been steady downpour
in the vicinity of Denison for the
past week. The flood situation is
very alarming. Red river has over
flowed and submerged number of
farms. Many cattle have been
drowned The same condition exists
on the Washita and other territory
streams. All ferry communications
were abandoned. Telephone messages
from the territory report unprece-
denied rains. A large number of
bridges have been washed out.
In cloudburst and strong wind
storm at Paint Rock, the Masonic hall
was almost totally wrecked, and other
buildings damaged.

Law and Order League of Kansas City
VIII Stir Up Sentiment for Sun
day Closing.

Kansas City, Mo-, May 21.-The eN-
ecutive committee of the Law and
Ordinance Enforcement league is lay
ing the foundation for making Sunday
closing of saloons in Kansas City a
matter of state interest. The local
committee which is working for Sun
day closing ordered 10000 copies of it's
platform printed, half of them to be
sent to influential people in Missouri
who do not live in Kansas City. In
cidentally, these circulars are eN-
pected to show to the state that the
people who demand Sunday closing
are not radicals, but that from bust
ness point of view as we'll as a moral
one the open saloon on Sunday is a
bad thing.
It hopes to be able to express the
sentiment Of the people who do not
believe in Sunday saloons in such a
way as to strengthen the police board
or possibly interest Gov. Dockery in
keeping the saloons closed.
