OUR SENATORS IN DISGRACE.

The violent episode in the chamber of
the United States Senate last Saturday
afternoon between Senators Tillman and
McLaurin is indeed to be deplored. Such
an occurrence at any time and place
would have been bad enough, but within
the precincts of our highest Legislative
body on the anniversary of the birthday
of the "Father of His Country it as
sumes unwonted prominence of a most
malignant type. Considering the time
and place it was the unexpected that
happened.
1t is plain that it has reached point
where the Senate ought to investigate
and fix the responsibility. The punish
mont should be meted out speedily to
the individual or individuals so that
South Carolina may again have proper
representation in the Senate. AS it now
is the people of this State have no voice
or vote.

and to whatever kind of gathering and
you will find people hopping. surrep-

hopping. The inevitable smudge new

handkerchief.
BE it lace or linen. or just common
cotton, no handkerchief is too good for
this service. The ornamental square
which is tucked in at the belt of n
dinner gown or hidden away in a
sleeve Is not too good for it, neither is
the generous cambria which shows it's
corners above the breas tpocket of top
coat.
Despite the abuse which the hand
kerchief is thus obliged to endure. it
is an ornamental and graceful piece
Of furniture. 1t was not meant to be

to that service. 1t is used by the

laughs at this rule of etiquette. IL
she would assume an innocent air
there is nothing she will more quickly

her handkerchief. She flirts with her
handkerchief and hides her embarrass-

gaudily. but ut the same time wear
ing expensive clothes.
These 1000 Greek negroes live In
tract of rich land called the Canadian
River bottoms. and Okmulgee is their
town and trading point. Okmulgee is
the capital of the Creek Indian nation.
and has been for years negro town.
Recently. however. white people flock
ed in and have taken possession. The
negroes are starting their own towns
along the branch of the Frisco Rail-
road.
Notwithstanding that many of these
Creek negroes are Industrious. there
are some among them who rent out
their estates and lounge in idleness
about the railway stations. 1t Is a
common sight to see 5OO-acre tract
Of rich land in the Canadian bottoms
being titled by white man. Invaria-
NY, upon inquiry as TO his landlord,
he will refer to the negro owner in no
complimentary terms. Meanwhile one
will find the owner shooting craps or
enjoying himself eating turkey and
'possum in neighboring village.
When the Creeks freed their negroes
in 1864 the two fraternized for time,
and even intermarried. but that has
all passed now. In accordance with
the terms granting their freedom. the
Creek negroes are allowed a voice In
the tribal government. and so they
have their own members in the Coun.
Gil. have their own schools and all
that; but the Creek Indian feels above
the Creek negro and refuses to asso-
ciate with him.
