SAYS 1T BEATS WIfISKEY.
South CarO1inian Invenfs Process
to Make Drink from
WafermeIonS.

j H. Nicholes, of Wedgeneld, S. c.,
believes that he has discovered process
to make drink out of watermelon
juice which will supercede whiskey, says
the Topeka Capital, and he waits the
Kansas state boatd of agriculture to as
sist him in securing capital to exploit the
discovery.
Mr.. Nicholes says that he understands
that some of the farmers of Kansas are
raising watermelons simply for the seed
and are throwing away the melons after
the seeds are extracted. He asserts that
this is simply throwing away millions
Of dollars yearly.
In his letter he says:
Il have the necessary machinery
planned for separating and preserving
watermelon juice, and 1 have process
for clearing the juice SO that in few
days it will look like pure corn whiskey,
and in fifty or sixty days can give you a
nice drink with alcohol enough i'm it to
make you feel it if you drink tumb!er
full.
II believe in temperance according to
the Apostle Paul, and 1 have come to
the conclusion that whiskey, as made
these days, Is an unnatural drink-two
concentrated-and as long as 1 can get
watermelon juice, as make it, never
will drink any more whiskey
81 have sold the watermelon juice for
So per gallon, and there are millions i'm
it at so cents per gallon.''

Help the Old Confederate Soldiers.

10 the generous public everywhere:
The Confederate Soldiers Relief Asso-
ciation Of South Carolina is organized
and designed perpetually to raise funds
anywhere throughout the United States
for the relief and comfort of the INDECENT
and suffering ex-Confederate soldier in
South Carolina.
These funds are to supplement the
pension fund Of the State and to be ap-
piled only in case of actual necessity and
destitution in individual cases which are
not sufficiently aided by the pensions.
Such destitution among the old Con-
federate soldiers does exist to a deplora-
ble extent and it deserves quick remedies.
The scheme of the work is to raise a
sufficient sum each year to reach every
case Of actual need and it will commend
itself to Christian people everywhere, es-
pecially in view of the fact that the gen.
erous contributor to this meritorious
effort will unde rstand that his contribu-
tion will pass through the medium of a
well organized and chartered institution
and will be most judiciously and wisely
distributed with the smallest possible
friction and expenditures.
In presenting this earnest appeal VIC
do so with the fullest confidence that
sympathy and love for the brave and de-
serving subjects in question will prompt
a generous and hearty response in the
hearts of the people Of our Christian
nation.
The appeal is presentl with the ear
nestness it deserves, the need for relief
is great. AS the appeals of the numbers
of the homeless and destitute come to
US, as we appeal to the prosperous Con-
foderate soldiers and the SONS and
daughters of veterans of our State upon
whom fortune has smiled, and to all
people, societies and organizations of
this and other States, north, east, south
and west, who, knowing no section or
prejudice which would obscure their
love for suffering humanity would gen.
erously contribute of their means to so
good purpose as is here presented
We beg that our friends come quickly
to our aid: we need not say more.
God bless the soul forever that comes
to the relief and the hand that reaches
out to help the suffering exc Confederate.
We solicit yearly subscriptions as we'll
as casual gifts with respect.

The democratic candidate for
governor, Louis n. Grill, talked
to the democrats Thursday night
of last week, and attempted to
show up the extravagances and
failures Of the republican admin
stratiOns-state and national.
The democratic candidate is an
agreeable speaker to listen to-,
but his presen tation Of any facts
were not such as to make any
converts to democracy The
truth is that the democratic ad-
ministration of affairs is of too
recent date for men of reason
to want return of the business
depression and hard times that
followed democratic success. In
state matters the speaker unfor.
tunately attempted to make a
comparison between the pOpulis1
administration of Andrew Lee
and that of the repu blicans
which followed it, probably not
knowing that the Lee admins
tration was very unpopular, even
among the democrats and popu-
lists, in this locality, and the
mis- management of affairs caused
it to be repudiated at the polls
People must have longer time
to forget before they will pine
for democratic misrule. An ole
soldier who knew whereof be
spoke, said that if Crili's criti
cisms of republican management
in other lines had no more foun
dation than his criticism of th'
soldiers home. it was a very
fragile structure. The speak Ell
attempted to argue that Roose
welt was the trust candidate ant
that Parker was the hope Of th'
common people, notwithstand
ing that previous to the latter
nomination about every demo
cratic paper in the state is o.
recol d asserting that Parker i
simply a tool of The gold bug

DOURLE-DEALING
Candidate for the
Legislature Votes at Repub-
Hcan Primaries Within Four
Days Of his Nomination in the
Democratic Convention.

1t is generally conceded that a
man S politics are not criterion
of his moral worth, and that a
man can be actuated by honest
purposes and still be member
of either political party, but a
man cannot be an honest man
and be a member of two oppos-
ing parties at the same time.
The fellow who attempts this
should be marked with the
brand of dishonor, and be con
sidered unworthy of standing
in any party. Yet this is just
what A. P. Weymer, the demo
cratic candidate for the legisla-
ture stands convicted of, for his
name is enrolled as number 8, on
the list of voters voting at the
repu blican primary in the town
ship of Lura. This is a matter
of record, and cannot be gain
said. Just how an honorable
man can justify himself by rep
resenting that he is a repu blican
and taking part in a republican
primary on Saturday, and on the
following Wednesday attending
and taking part in a democratic
convention and accepting a nom
ination from that party for an
office for which he has already
assisted in making a nomination
in the repub blican primary is one
of the things that is beyond the
comprehension of the ordinary
| individual. If this man is a
democrat what right had he to
take an active part and vote in a
republican primary. There is
no law governing this matter in
South Dakota, but if there was
Weymer would stand a better
chance of going to Jail than he
would to the legislature. But
while there may be no writer
law to punish such disreputablt
! action, there is that unwritter
sense Of honor which makes
every honorable man law int
himself and distinguishes hin
from tie sneak, whose observ
ance of the law Of right is limited
to the reach of the penalty. Fol
| lowing is the rule under which
| Mr.. Weymer voted: "And ~
one except a person known to b'
a republican voter, or who VII
pledge b mself to support th'
republican tlcket-cOunty, stat'
and national-who is d qualified
voter, shall be allowed to vote a
said nominating election. > Mr.
Weymer either made affidavit t.
the above or he sneaked IN hl
vote through the connivance o
apathy of the judges of election
In either case he stands in
very compromised position, an
he is not entitled to the votes O
republicans, democrats or me-
of any party who believe in fal
dealing.
