The Coal Question.

The all absorbing topic from one end
of the United States to the other is the
coal strike which has assumed such
threatening proportions. AS the cold
ness of winter is settling down on this
part of the country and nulnberless
families find that they are deprived of
the usual supply of coal, the question
comes close to home. Those who are
supplied, and have nothing to fear from
the winter, can we'll afford to sit back
and applaud the miners and urge them
to hold out or with just as much vigor
approve of the stand taken by the own
ers. The real question is not the right or
wrong of either party but where is
the winters supply coming from, and
those who have not the coal and cannot
get it are not caring who is right or who
IS wrong if only there is some way to get
fuel. The failure of the president tobring
the walring factions to terms by persua-
sion, should be followed UP by the power,
vested in the government to provide for
the general welfare of the people. If the
coal kings of the east are greater than
the president then we should elect coal
king and not a president. If God AL
mighty put the coal in the earth for the
use of mankind then the owners of the
land have no control over it by reason of.
invention or creation. They didn't make
it and they are not diyinely ordained as
its guardians. When the Indians besieged
this city some years ago and supplies be-
came scarce the stores were compelled to
give up what they had and after a time
the government recompensed them for
what was taken. There was no ques-
ton of right of wrong. and when this
coal famine has extended over the land
to such an extent that. there Is actual suf-
fering and death, there will then be no
question as to the right or wrong of the
government to act in securing supply
for the needs of the people while these
millionaire owners and starving miners
are settling their half-cent difficulty. IF
the president had power to abregate the
tariff on coal there would soon be q settle
ment of the question unless Morgan could
suddenly control the traffic of the seas.
The burden of the distress is going to
fall upon the improvident poor and they
are the ones lease able to make an effect
i've protest.

County ATTORNEY.

In the matter of county attorney the
fight lies between Einar Hoidale and G..
a. Hagberg both Of this city. Notwith-
standing the fact that Mr.. Hoidale came
within three votes of the election two
years ago, a strong effort is being made
to defeat him at the polls in November
and his friends should be on the alert
in his behalf at all times. The manly
way in which he conducted his last cam
paign, and alsothe primary election cam
paign, his ability as an attorney and the
interest he has manifested in the welfare
Of the county and this city and the
evident purpose he has if elected Of
making the interests Of the county his
personal interests, and the fact that he is
q man among men, commanding the re-
spect and admiration of all with whom
he has dealings, makes him an ideal can
didate and an officer from whom the
people may expect unbiased and lmparti-
al service. 81

Post moltem praises and love are il the

stoop to kiss their living; they hover
over their Baskets in hysteric sobs, but
fail TO throw their arms around their
loved ones who are fighting the stern
battles Of life. a word Of cheer Is q

a Chicago fencing master whose
career was as adventurous as D'Artag-
mans. "What is Luck?" by Paul

TRlsUTE or RESPECT.

At a meeting of the Board of Di-
rectors Of the First National Bank Of
Sumter held on the 23d day of Septem-
Der, 1902, the following preamble and
resolutions were adopted:
Whereas, the great Ruler OF the
Universe in His inscrutable wisdom
has removed from the sphere of his
earthly usefulness Our late President,
Col r. Ne. Wallace, it is deemed
Justly due to his memory that some
public recognition of the loss sustain
ed by the Bank, by his brother officers
and By the community in which he
lived, should be made. Conscious
that fnlsome adulation and exaggerat-
ed eulogy would find no place in his
nature, we content ourselves with a
simple and sincere tribute of respect.
Therefore, be it resolved that In the
death cf Col. Wallace this bank has
suffered the loss of President, who
by his extensive knowledge of finance,
his wise counsel, conservative methods,
and unremitting devotion to its varied
interests, has brought the same to a
high position amongst the financial
institutions Of the country; organized
some fifteen YEARS since under the
nest diseouraging circumstances, con-
tending IN 1888 with widespread
and disastrous financial panic through
ont the Union, and subsequently fac
ing for several years an acute and dan
gerous agricultural and commercial
depression IN our own midst, his frm
and quiet management has rendered
It a safe and prosperous banking IN
stitution, evidenced by the high pre-
MUM commanded by its stock, and
has 6rmlv established the same In the
confidence and good will of the COM
munity, as evidenced by its large and
increasing volume Of deposits.
Resolved, That It's Board of Direct
ofs has lost an able, genial and COM
panionable officer, unobtrusive In his
manner, gentle IN his methods,
quiet friendliness OF opposition, and
man with unkind words towards no
one.
Resolved, That in his death the
community has sustained a serious
loss; coming as he did to this city al
most total stranger and differing
with its dominant element in his po-
itical views, yet he made this-his
home; entered fully into the spirit of
progress pervading this locality in
vested large sums in various manufac-
turing and Industrial enterprises in
our midst, and became to be useful
and valuable citizen. -
Resolved That these resolutions
be Inscribed upon the records of this
bank and that the daily and weekly
.press Of Sumter be requested to pub.
ish the same.

MAGNoLIA NEWS NOTES.
School Opens With Large Attendance
Personal Mention.

Magnolia, Sept. 29.-The Mganolia
Graded School with Prof. Brunson,
of Florence, as principal and Miss j.
E. Clark, assistant, opened today.
One of the assistants, Miss Farley,
niece of the late Gen. Hugh S. Far
ley, has not yet arrived, in conse-
quence Of the recent death Of her
mother, but her place was filed by oul
popular and efficient School Commis-
sioner, Prof Baskins, In whom and
for whom, even the children here,
have the greatest confidence and re-
gard.
The names Of over one hundred
pupils we're enrolled, and the prospects
for an unusually successful and inter
esting term are indeed promising.
The principal, Prof. Brunson, mas
won the esteem and confidence of both
children and patrons, and deseryedly
SO. Miss Clark taught last. term. and
by her competency, tact kindness and
frm knowledge of the nature and dis
position Of children (which is es-
sential,to the successful training OF
children) soon gained their love and
esteem.
Miss Farley is highly recommended
and the trustees, no doubt, in choos-
ing her made a most satisfactory selec-
tion.
Col. j. A. Rhame, chairman Of the
board Of trustees, has been untiring
in his efforts, to have the school an
up-to-date one.
Cotton is now nearly all picked out,
and placed ION the. market-nothing
like full crop. We need rain, and
the early planting of oats is retarded
for lack of it.
Capt. D. E. Keels is a shade better,
but still in critical condition.
DR.. Darby paid US flying visit last
week. He was looking extremely
bright and we'll Mrs. DR.. Darcy
went back to Columbia with him, af-
ter visit of three or four weeks in
this place.

is a good deal OF money IN circulation.
