This Carrie Nation business may
be getting pretty stale, but is is
nevertheless the leading topic of
the day and one cannot resist
saying something on the subject even
If it is being worn almost
threadbare by the newspapers and by
the public in general. The woman m
question has in one months time &C.
compli,hed more for the enforce.
ment OF the law than those who ridi-
Guile it have done In twenty years.
Her methods are probably illegal and
she is fanatic, but they have been
effective for the present. How endur-
ing the reform will be is a matter for
the future to settle. AS a rule insan-
ity does not build upon rock, and as
to tie mental condition Of the lady
there can be little doubt in the mind
of one who reads her letter written to
Judge Hazen while she was In Jail,
that the wheels In her upper story are
influenced by powerful momentum.
She says in the letter: "Judge Hazen,
l want you to quit your fooling and
let me out OF here, so can be In Peo-
ria Monday morning. l am to edit
the Journal there and get $3.50, and
If you are the cause Of me missing my
engagement there shall not feel like
a ministering angel unto you. 1t is
time for you to recover yourself be-
fore the devil, your master, makes a
clean sweep Of you toto hell. You
know that the storage was nuisance
and that he has no protection at law,
and you know you are prosecuting one
of Gods children, who loves you for
Jesus sake. Now, you let me 60 out
of here, and let me 60 about my bust
ness, trying to help such a poor devil
as you are. Your loving friend,
CARRIE NATION.

French minister of commerce in
troduced in the Chamber of
Deputies a bill to grant bounties
to French-built ships, VIII ich
amounts to so per cent of the
cost of construction. Every civ
ilized country in the world is
paying particular attention at
this time to building up their
merchant shipping and a system
of subsidy of some kind is en-
ployed everywhere. Even little
Japan, a country which we OF
the United States have been in,
clined to regard as only semi
civilized, has for years been
building up subsidized mer-
chant marine until today her
flag is seen twenty times IN the
harbors of the world where the
American flag is seen once. For,
ging ahead to the very forefront
of the nations of the earth IN
almost every department Of in,
dustry and trade, shall the Unit
ed States consent to be a tail
ender in the race for commercial
supremacy? Despite the efforts
of two of the ''leading newspa'
pers" of South Carolina to wrap
themselves and the public in
the graveclothes of dead and
prejudiced past and to shut their
eyes to the dawning of the com
mercial resurrection, the people
have heard Gabriel's horn-they
realize that it is time to wake
up-the music Of the CONNER
cial Democracy is echoing among
the hill of the Piedmont. With
banners flying, the grand army
of progress is marching to the
sea. Join the front ranks of the
procession. The slogan is: For
ward march, and may the devil
take the hindmost. "-Greenville

with negro therefore Bryan's
democracy is the correct politics.
Roosevelt dined with a negro;
therefore ship subsidy is wrong.
Roosevelt dined with a negro;
therefore expansion is undemo-
cratic. Roosevelt dined with a
negro; therefore free silver is
right. These are sample argu-
ments by which appeals are
made to Southern Democrats.
Let everybody keep level
head. Roosevelt may dine with
a hundred negroes every day in
the week if he wants to. But
that will never help the democ-
racy to win the presidency on
dead issues-and that is the i'm
portant fact to be kept in mind.
The Booker Washington Incl
dent will be used against McLau-
rim in his race for recollection
that is if he runs-because Nc
Laurin has been advising with
the President about appoint
ments in South Carolina and is
manifestly on good terms with
him-some think too good.
However that may be-and we
do not undertake to say-it is
we'll enough to keep the follow
ing facts in mind:
l. McLaurin's influence has
secured far superior set of fed
eral officers for the State-and,
so far, white men only.
2. There is no proof that Nc
Laurin is a Republican or that
he intends to become one.
3. But suppose ne is, or shall
be a Republican, that is no argu-
ment against a more progressive
democracy, Of which he is only
an incident in this State.
If McLaurin should play the
traitor to his party and false to
men who have trusted him, it is
so much the worse for him, but
that would not prove that pro
gressive democracy is wrong or
that Bryan democracy is right.

That Surplus.

There is a plethora of money
in the United States treasury,
and the officials are troubled to
find room for it. This, too, at a
time when the government is
spending more mony than ever
since it's foundation, except per-
haps during the war between the
States. The war with Spain,
the conquest of the Philippines
still incomplete. the enormous
appropriations to other purposes
have all demanded an expendi-
ture of money which to any pre-
vious age would have appeared
fabulous. Yet in spite of such
conditions, or possibly by virtue
of such conditions. the surplus
money on hand is so great that
the government is puzzled to
know what to do with it.
In the meanwhile the gigantic
tariff system is in full blast and
the pile of surplus money is
steadily and rapidly growing;
the nation is taxed to the aver
age amount of ten dollars a head
for every man, woman and child
to meet the expenses of one ses-
sion of Congress: an average OF
so per cent or one half of what
the country buys and uses, is
absorbed by the tariff and is paid
by the consumer; millions Of la.
borers are struggling for bread
in grim restlessness and, with
gloomy forebodings: millions of
others are pinched and strained
by reason Of scanty incomes;
and still the growth of the great
pile in the treasury is not check
ed. Every dollar of this money
lying there idle is withdrawn
from circulation and it's legiti-
mate uses among the people,.
Then, too, the great trusts are
thriving and fattening out Of the
very means that impoverish the
people and they go on accumu-
iating and absorbing, until it
seems but a question of time
when all the material resources
of the country will be under
t;heir control and the happiness
and prosperity of the people at
5heir mercy.
No wonder that to the average
mind there seems to be some
where a great wrong, colossal
injustice; that the spirit OF un-
rest is abroad among the people;
and that there is the sound OF
distant thunder in the murky
political air.-Gaffney Ledger.

way, continue to serve his adopt
ed country with honor.
It may be that Senator Nc
Laurin has recommended him to
the Presidents favorable attenl
ton. There is not a man in al
this Southland that would better
fill a cabinet office than Judge
Benet.
We assume that Senator Nc
Laurin will not quit the fight,
which he has commenced, to
take an appointment at Wash
ington, but will be in at the fin
ish, although it is possible that
he may go to Washington, in
which case Judge Benet will take
up the fight. The Judge, we be,
lieve, is a progressive Democrat,
who endorses the retention OF
the Philippine Islands and Porto
Rico, and would hold on to Cuba
through diplomatic arts.
The obstructionists in this
State realize that the sands are
slipping from beneath their feet,
while they see their hated rival
standing on the rocks. The
ghost of McLaurinism troubles
them in their sleep, and in their
waking hours it fills all their Wis
ions.
The obstructionists have been
hit so hard amidship that they
have not yet prepared a new
speech. That class of fpoliticians,
as our people know, live only in
the past. They talk only of the
glory of the former years. They
always dread the future, and
never fail to warn the people
against progress in any direction.
Obstructionists, however, should
not rely upon the same old
speech that has been delivered
perhaps ten thousand times.
When we are told of the great
ness of our ancestors, and when
the gallantry Of the Confederate
soldier is eulogized we can stand
it very well for fifty or sixty
times, but when the old story
becomes an every day diet, we
get somewhat fatigued, and
wonder what the orators take Us
for.-Abbeville Press and Ban.

possesses features which are unique,
says a Utah man. 1T IS very in7igor-

takes some time to become accustomed
to the extraordinary buoyancy Of the
water. 1t is quite impossible to sink
or to drown in the lake, but many peo-
pie have been killed by the water.
When there is q breeze and spray is
dashed upon bathers, the water is so
densely impregnated with salt that the
liquid portion evaporates very quickly
and leaves deposit Of salt on the skin.
"On several occasions people have
drifted out while bathing or been
wrecked and thrown overheard and aft
erward found dead on top Of the water,
choked to death by the accumulation or
salt in their mouths and nostrils."
