Friendship For the South.

BALTIMORE, MD, Sept. 1S.-In q letter
to the Manufacturers Record ofthis city
United States Senator J. l.. McLaurin oi
South Carolina tells of the interview ht
had with Mr. Mckinley one day during
the days of the Spanish war
"The president" says Senator McLaurin
"spoke beautifully and tenderly of the
southern people, and of how he intended
to use the power and influence of his great
Office to reunite our country.
II can recall the words, but who can
paint the earnestnesS and clOquencc as,
raising of one hand on high, he said:
Senator, by the help of God, | propose to
be the president of the whole country, the
south as much as the north; and before the
end of my term the south will understand
this
mo wonder, as true southern man, |
loved and trusted President Mckinley.
stood by him in the senate and elsewhere
and thank God that did.
"Patriotic in purpose, and pure in heart
his noble soul is now with Him whom the
hate of man nailed to the cross. Like
Lincoln, who saved the country, Mckin-
ley, who reunited it, dies martyr to envy
and hate"

An Outrage in COlletOn.

WALTERBoRo, Sept 1S.-The commu-
nitv around Ruffins, in this county, is
very much wrought up over an attempt
at rape near there yesterday afternoon.
About o'clock in the afternoon big
burly negro named Jake Bostick, rs he
was passing the home of Mrs. Ann Cros-
by, seized Mrs. Crosby's little 13-year-old
daughter Daisy and attempted to rape her
in front of her gate. The cries of the child
and screams of Mrs. Crosby frightened
the negro off, SO that he did not complete
his dastardly act.
The family and friends of Mrs. Crosby
were notified and soon mob was in
search of the scoundrel. They secured
the country for miles, but did not succeed
in catching him. 1t is said that if he had
been caught last night no mercy would
have been shown him, but that he would
have been swung to the first tree. Howev
er the leaders of the crowd are more cool
to-day and are now willing for the law to
take its course when he is captured. A
warrant for Bostick's arrest was issued
by Magistrasssee- Reach -tes-day- 70
Mrs. Crosby is widow of a respectable
family and lives near Ruffins. Jake Bos-
tick is a very bad negro who has repu
tation for his frequent service on the
changing.

There has been considerable specula-
ton as to whether Senator McLaurin
would have the influence with President
Roosevelt that he had with President
Mckinley, and We notice that McLaurin's
enemies seemed to be the ones chiefly
interested: They think, like all cheap
politicians, that the popularity of man
or his ideas depends on whether he can
get plums for his followers. 1t seems that
the Junior Senator will still be the power
in Washington that he has been in the
past, and will be able to do his section
some good, but Commercial Democracy"
as some have pleased to call it, goes be-
yond a few political jobs, and is not de-
pendent for success on few postmaster
ships or other Federal positions. In fact,
many of the most prominent advocates of
McLaurin's ideas could not be induced to
accept any political office. They advocate
these policies because they are patriotic,
love their State and country, and believe
them to be the best policy for South
Carolina.

Buchanan Nav Withdraw.

On good authority it is stated that
Judge o. W. Buchanan will not stand for
reelection to the bench in the third
judicial circuit. One of his friends in
another county has made the positive
assertion that Mr. Buchanan would with
draw. However there is nothing official,
SAYS the Florence Times.
The paucity of votes he received as a
candidate for congress in the seventh
district has probably Influenced to some
extent his determination to stand aside.
Judge Buchanan has been criticised a
good deal for entering the congressional
race while still Judge. 4 great many
have said he should have resigned before
announcing his candidacy.
Prominent politicians throughout the
State, even those who are responsible for
the act, are criticiSing the election of
Judges to fill positions in one district
while they reside in another. Three
Judges have been thus elected, and these
have been injured in their political pros
poets somewhat on this account.
The withdrawal of Mr.. Buchanan, if an
nounced, leavas three prominent candi-
dates in the race for judge in this circuit:
George Galletly, of this city, and T. B.
Fraser and r. D. Purdy, of Sumter.

Barlow Warren Case.

In the Orangeburg correspondence of
the News and Courier we find the follow
ing in reference to the case of Barlow
Warren, who was to have been tried for
the express robbery:
Barlow Warren, who was expected to
stand trial again at this term for the ia
nous Fifty Eight express robbery, has
not been captured since he recently muir
dered the principal witness against him
in that case RumOr has it that he is still
in the neighborhood of Branchville and
will soon be apprehendcd. No indictment
for murder will be given out against him
at this term, but Bench warrant has been
issued for him and an order passed direct
ing his sureties to show cause why his
bond should not be estreated. His bond
for 81 800, was given by Il gentleman in
Orangeburg, who is said to be secured by
mortgage on the property of a person
in Branchville, who has been befriending
Warren since the express robbery was
committed.

McLaurin Has Influence.

WASIlN@ToN. ID. C.. Sept. l9.--Amung
South Carolina people there has been
considerable discussion us to the probable
policy of President Roosevelt. and the
opinion has been expressed in some quar-
tiers that the influence of the McLaurin
element in South Carolina may not be as
strong with the new president as it was
with President Mckinley. The time
however, is too early to predict what the
probable Southern policy of President
Roosevelt may be. The indications, how
ever, do not point to any reversal of the
late presidents Southern policy in the
slightest degree. The new president has
declared that he will follow the policy of
President Mckinley and it is supposed
by this he means his Southern. a. well a$
his foreign policies. Moreover the fact
that he has requested the old cabinet. and
also Private Secretary Cortclyou to re-
main in office, will aid the McLanrin
of Senator McLaurin is strong with the
cabinet officials, and he will, it is safe to
say, continue to be strong with the
government officials. Having the intlu-
ence of the cabinet, and private secretary,
and government officials on his side. there
is no reason for believing that there will
be any overturning of the political con-
ditions now existing in South Carolina.
Moreover Senator McLaurin has known
Vice President Roosevelt personally since
the latter became president of the senate,
and their relations have always been, it is
reported, very cordial. Whatever else
NAV be said of President Roosevelt, it
has always been known that he is i man
whose friendships are strong and lasting
and Senator McLaurin will doubtless con-
tinue to be a frequent and welcome viSi
tor at the executive mansion as he has
been in the past.

Let US hope that the day will finally
come when county auditors and county
boards of equalization will do their duty
in the matter of tax returns. 1t is no.
torious fact that much property is not re-
turned at all and great deal Of it too
low, yet no county auditor has the nerve
to say to man making such return {:
"Make higher return than that or l
shall be forced, as matter of duty, to
call the attention of the county board to
it." If auditors and boards of equaliza-
ton would do their duty, lots of the tax
dodgers would be forced to bear their
just proportion of the burdens OF govern
ment.

A. c. Latimer, who is candidate for
United States Senator, is reported in the
papers as saying in his speech at Laurens
that the crowd which cheered McLaurin
at Anderson would have cheered L black
negro. 1t is to be hoped he was incor-
rectly quoted, for it seems to US no decent
white man in South Carolina would have
so low an opinion of his fellow-citizens.
If Latimer has such an opinion as that of
the hard-working, honest people of South
Carolina, he is not so good man as a
good negro, and is certainly unworthy
to hold any Office.

4 Pitiable Sight.
What is more pitiable than to see puny
delicate little child absolutely dying from
neglect. There are many little ones, whose
cheeks would grow rosy whose eycs would
grow bright, whose flesh would be plump
and pretty if only the worms that are
knaWing at their vitals were removed,
which is easily effected with Mothers
Worm Syrup, so nice to take the chill
dren ask for it. Also a cure for tape worm
in grown people. Try a % cent bottle.
The Secret of Good Health.
The secret of beauty and good health is
cleanliness. Uncleanliness breeds disease.
Internal cleanliness is even of greater i'm
portance than external. Keep your liver
active and your bowels thoroughly clean

Ifit is true that Judge O. w. Buchanan

If it is true that Judge y. w. Buchanan
will not offer for reelection as Judge OF
the judicial circuit over which he presides
at present, the lawyers and interested
citizens should see to it that another can
didate is in the field, in addition to those
already mentioned. For, with all due re-
.spect to the gentlemen announced as can
didates, we do not think either of them
is we'll qualified for the position OF judge.
There is good lawyer in that circuit
who would make a good judge, but we
doubt if he could be induced to run.
This man is Joseph F. Rhane, OF Man
ming. He is thorough lawyer, a chris
tian gentleman, and would certainly
grace the bench of South Carolina.

The Exposition Magazine, in its current
issue, publishes an article on the negro
department of the Charleston Exposition,
and along with the article appear the
pictures of the negro men and women
who have charge of this department. In
looking over the pictures, we were struck
with the fact that not one of them is
a full-blooded negro. All of them appear
to have a good deal of white blood, some
more than others. In justice to their
race they ought to have one full-blooded
negro among the number, if one with
sufficient intelligence is to be had.
