No Use for q Bribe.

A good lesson was once taught the Civ
er of bribe. The Youths Companion
has told the story thus:
Colonel Ludlow, who was chief OF the
water department of large city, one day
received call from wealthy manufac-
turer, whose establishment had many Ia
vors to ask of the department. Before
this man made his request he handed the
colonel fifty dollar bill, which the Col
laid upon the desk before him, without
saving a word. When his visitor rose to
60, however, he inquired:
"Now, my dear sir, what is this for?'
holding up the bill. .,
"Oh, that's to buy cigars for the boys!
"Yes; then suppose you are fond OF
the weed?"
The manufacturer acknowledged that
he did like good cigar.
Then allow me- said the chief, in his
most genial manner, ito insist upon your
trying one of these"
He took two cigars from box, lighted
his own with the fifty dollar bill anc
passed the burning paper to his amazed
visitor. The man said nothing, but he
never made second attempt to bribe
Colonel Ludlow.

The telegraphic news rumor that th(
South Carolina politicians will try tc
force McLaurin out of the State primary
will prove 4 boomerang If really attempt
ed by the executive committee.
There ought to be the widest diScas
sion of democratic policies and platforms
during the next few years. The details
of the important issues and planks on
which the party will so before the coun
try at the next general election arc not
worked out.
1t is safe to say that the people and not
the politicians will shape these matters
The old line democrats in South Caroline
and in other Southern States would
doubtless like to limit and prescribe demo
cratic doctrine. They would doubtless
like to make 16 to /, support OF Bryan
and thousand and one populistic doc
trines still the measuring yard. 1t is
hardly possible that the old timers car
keep the party vote, clinging to politica
corpses. They would defeat themselve:
and their own purposes ifthcy were to &c
so.
The only chance for practical politica
success is to put new life, new ideas
new vim and energy, enthusiasm and pat
riotism and a great deal of practical pros
perity points into the makeup of the mex
platform. Such a platform will more
nearly approach the ideal, Jefferson dem
ocracy than anything we've had in years
In order to do this, the party ought t.
invite all the people to cooperate ant
come into party primaries and in TIN
general discussion. If the democratic
party is going to be the peoples party
such is the proper course. If it is goin:
to degenerate into the personal part,
machine of Bryan and of Tillman, Scna
tor Jones or any of the national, State o
county politicians, then it had best chang
its name to suit its new purposes.-Au

All this talk about building home for
needy Confederate soldiers is humbug, OF
the worst sort, and is not being done to
benefit the old veterans who are in bad
circumstances. Of course it will help
any city to have such an institution To-
Gated within her borders, and we notice
that Columbia is in favor of the home,
and, of course, wants it located In the
capital city. We want no "poor house
for Confederate soldiers. Let the State
give them all the help possible in the way
of pension and let them stay at home
among their relatives and friends the
balance of their days. The idea OF build
ing "poor house" for the men who suf-
fered for the cause of the South Its lit

The striking machinists will win the
respect of nobody by their lawlessness
and lose the sympathy of some by such
action. But it is always the same. Very
few strikes ever occur unless there is
property destroyed, and men who are
trying to make an honest living are
beaten and abused. 1t is high time such
things were stopped. 1t is all right for
men to strike but they should not inter
fere with the property or employees OF
the company or corporation against whom
they have grievance. The property of
a corporation is entitled to protection
just as much as that of the individual,
and strikers should be taught severe
lesson along this line.

If fGovernor McSweeney has any idea
of running for office of any kind again
he had better make some determined
effort to enforce the dispensary law IN
Charleston. From all that we can gather
the law is being violated more tiagrantly
and openly now than at any time since
its adoption. 1t was charged in the last
campaign that McSweeney had agreed not
to enforce the dispensary law in Charles
ton in exchange for the vote of that city
and many people are beginning to believe
that this is true The present condition
of affairs is shame and disgrace to South
Carolina and the governor, and he should
either enforce the law or acknowledge
that he cannot and resign.

Manila, September 4.-Leutenant Haz- gard of the Third Cavalry has brought in here Arthur Howard, the American deserter who was recently captured by the lieutenant while in command of some Macabebee scouts in the island of Mindora. He was placed in jail and will shortly be courtmartialed. Howard denies that he was ever an American soldier He claims that he was born in Spain, that his father was English and his mother Spanish, but that he espoused the cause of the Filipinos. In 1896 after peace was declared he says he went to Hong Kong and returned in 1898 as Aguinaldos chief of artillery.
 While in that position Howard also says he made friends with many Americans before the insurrection, including General Green. He cast his lot with Aguinaldo at the time of the rupture with the Ameri- cans, and says he brought In sixteen pris- oners under a flag of truce at Angeles, in September, 1899 Howard denies that he commanded the force at San Mateo which killed General Lawton.

Until Venezuela Makes More Definite Response to the Peace Proposition the United States Will Not Begin Work

Washington, September 4-The action of the United States In rendering it's good offices to Venezuela and Colombia to avert war between those countries has not yet advanced to point where thls government has begun the work of med iator.
 It has .signified its willingness to act but it will remain for the countries to in- dicate when the time has arrived for actual mediation.
 Colombia has already made known that she will welcome the exercise of the pa cific action of the United States. In this instance 1t Is understood that Colombia denies she has invaded Venezuela and al- so places the burden of the issue on Pres ident Castro In person.
 The response of Venezuela, is under- stood to be less definite in accepting the good offices of the United States. For the present, therefore, 1t is not expected that the United States will take further active steps, although its tender stands as a clear intimation to the contending parties that the United States Is willing to take such action as is likely neces- sary ito avoid war.
