A Card from Sheriff Dukes.

1t is being currently reported, so l
am informed, that l, as Sheriff, have
refused to allow the Cotton WeigherS
to use a portion of the jail yard for
cotton platform on which to weigh
cotton. This incorrectly states my
position. Personally l have no oDjec-
tion to using the yard, or portion of
it. for weighing cotton, but the law
requires the cotton weighers to ofurnish
their own platforms, and l am advised
by gool lawyers that l have no power
or discretion to permit the use of the
yard for weighing cotton. In other
words, it is not left to me. If the
weighers can get proper legal sanction
for such use through recommendation
of the grand jury, and an order from
the Circuit Judge authorizing me to
allow such use to be made Of portion
of the yard, l am more than willing.
l only wish to keep within the law,
and be protected as far as my bond is
concerned. So let it be plainly under
stood that l have no objection to a
portion of the jail yard being used for
a cotton platform or for a wagon yard.

A Money Making Scheme.

1t has been announced that negro
convention is to be held IN July for
the purpose of nominating a negro
candidate for president. Should such
a convention be held and nomina-
tion made and all qualified negro elec-
tors in the different States give the
ticket their solid support, it would
put New York, New Jersey, Connecti-
cut, Indiana and some other States
in the Democratic column, for the
negroes in those states, who hold the
balance of power, always vote the Re-
publican ticket. A negro ticket sup
ported by negroes would be forcical in
some respects, but since the colored
brother has the franchise, if he should
support the ticket it would mean the
inevitable defeat of President Roose-
velt. The managers of the Republi-
can campaign have enough resources
to prevent such party disaster. The
scheme properly handled could be
made to pay a handsome dividend.

Wait a Minutei!

Only a few minutes inspection by
those interested in the purchase Of a.
high grade vehicle is necessary to con-
vince them of the advantage in pur-
chasing from me.
A carload of "Rock Hill' buggies
just received, representing all styles.
of this progressive company's goods.
The "Wrenn'' wire wheel Run
abouts," Surries," Phptons," ETC., are
always on hand in all styles, and the
fact that there are over one hundred
of them in use throughout the county,,
giving excellent satisfaction in every
case, is within itself significant OF the
excellence of this now famous line of
work built by a Southern company.
"ColumbuS," "Studabaker," Sum
mers, Barnesville," are all names
which speak for themselves where
an idealvehicle is wanted.
1t costs but little more to buy a
standard grade vehicle than the cheap
Western product which in every case
proves unsatisfactory: so why not buy
the best?
The most complete and extensive
line Of high grade work ever offered by
an Orangeburg house to the public is
now to be seen here.
The public is. cordially invited to
call and inspect. L. e. RILEY.

SuIly'S Failure.

The Commoner says the failure Of
"Cotton King" Daniel J. Sully fur
nishes another illustration of the un-
certainty that hedges about specu-
lative career. Mr.. Sully was more
than usually successful, phenomenally
so, in fact. He became the most con-
spicuous cotton operator in the world
and was supposed to have made a
large amount Of money-but all at
once he suspends. If be, with his
wide knowledge Of the subject and bis
power to influence the markets, could
not succeed, how can the curb-stone
brokers and penny spectators hope
to win? The story of Sully's specta-
cular career has lured thousands and
tens of thousands into gambling IN
cotton futures-will his failure be a
warning to as many? 1t is. a sad COM
mentary on American morals that 1t
is necessary to make against gambling
the argument that it does not pay.
That it is not right should be srffi-
cient reason and will be when young
men learn that character and manhood
are of more value than money.

The Strenuous Roosevelt.

The State says a reputable Wash
ington correspondent asserts that
President Roosevelt has ION various
occasions dictated newspaper dis
patches about himself, written COM
municationS for the state department
and sent them to foreign govern
ments without showing them to Mr..
Hay, ordered Slips to make demon
strations in foreign waters without
consulting with his secretary Of the
navy and done other premature things
not set down as among the duties Of
the president of the United States"
among which was the appropriation Of
s3O,OOO,0OO for pensions without the
consent of congress. In view Of this
temperamental tendency of the preSi-
dent, Golfers Weekly is correct in
saying that the historic divergence of
political thought upon the division of
power between the States and the
federal government has been over
Swallowed by the consideration Of "a
division far more important and fund
amental"-at least far more impor-
tant at this time. 1.-THE division Of
power between judiciary, legislature
and and executive" says Golfers, lis
a cornerstone Of liberty" and free
government cannot exist without
some division Of these powers" In
commenting on the above The State
says most truly that Theodore Roose-
velt is the greatest menace to the con-
tinuance Of the free form Of govern
ment provided for in the constitution,
because he is not content merely to
execute the laws.

Looking Beyond.

Sometimes we feel longing for the pressure
OF hands, grown cold and weary in the
istrifc,
Hands, in the quiet grave now calmy resting,
So full of loving service when in life.
Sometimes our hearts are filled with bitter
anguish
Over some grief that seems too great to bear,
For one, to us more dear than life, has left us,
And all our future seems bercft and bare.
Sometimes we feel deep and earnest longing
For something which in life has been denied,
And our vexed spirits make 4 low, sad wailing,
That we have missed those joys for which
we sighed;
Missed them perchance within this earthly
region
But all we have is not our portion here,
No, our freed spirits have wider kingdom;
4 future lies before us bright and clear;
Bright with the radiance of a holy sunlight,
Clear with the clearness of the crystal sea,
Did not dark sin-mists cloud our earthly
vision,
OF the great Life Eternal yet to be.
But peace, faint heart! let Faith spread broad
her pinons,
Soar to the upper realms of joy and light,
Look on the things unseen with earnest
glances,
Look upward, onward-wal1 no more by
sight.
In the bright joy of that glad Easter morning
The last, the grandest, that our earth shall
know,
What Joy, what rapture in the glad reunion,
When bliss shall rise supreme DER pain and
woe.
Let us walk onward through this lower
region,
Through this deep valley where sins shadow
lies,
Looking beyond, where sunlight gilds the
mountains,
Zen sometimes now too bright for mortal
eyes.
Great Sun of Righteousness, arise, and guide
us,
Through all the dark and dreary ways of life;
In life and death, shed Thy bright beams upon
us,
And make us more than victors in the
strife.

How About Douglass Book?

The Greenville News says: MIR.
Cleveland has again denied the Sian.
derous story that he invited Fred
Douglass, the negro, to his wedding
reception at the White House. The
enemies of the former President have
persistently tried to poison the South
ern mind against him, but it is low
and contemplate, and those of US
who admire the statesman know that
he was not the kind to celebrate at a
mixed feast" What has the News
and other papers of it's way Of think
ing to say about Fred Douglass book?
In that book Douglass says that while
his false friends Of both colorS were
reproaching him because he had re-
Gently married white wife Mr.. Cleve-
land singled him out for special at
tentions. What these attentions were
he proceeds to state. He says that
Mr.. Cleveland never failed to invite
him and his wife to all Of the grand
receptions, and Douglass says that
myself and my wife never failed to
attend them" At these receptions
Douglass states that Mr.. Cleveland
showed to himself and Mrs. Doug
lass" bearing mot less cordial and
courteous than that extended to the
other ladies and gentlemen present" +"
Douglass calls this conduct of Mr..
Cleveland manly defiance by a
Democratic president of the malig-
nant and time-honored prejudice"
Again, to show more clearly how
Douglass understood the true meaning
of Mr.. Cleveland's conduct, the negro
goes on to say that the cordial and
courteous treatment accorded him and
Mrs. Douglass" by Mr.. and Mis-.
Cleveland was extended while be was
surrounded by distinguished men
and women from all parts ofthe coun-
try, and by diplomatic representatives
from all parts Of the wofld, and under
the gaze of the late Shareholders" "
Now, as Mr.. Watson says, If there ever
was anything clear in a book it is
clear that in, this book Fred Douglass
meant to give Mr.. Cleveland credit
and praise for defying malignant pre-
judice on the social equality question,
and for treating himself and Mrs.
Douglass" as social equals in the pres
ence of the representatives of the
white race throughout the world.
What made this manly defiance of
malignant prejudice" the more exqui-
Sitely gratifying to the negro was
that it was done under the gaze of
the late slavc-owncrs." In other
words, Fred says, in effect, that
Southern ladies and gentlemen were
present and were compelled to wit
ness in silence the social triumph of
himself and Mrs Douglass. What
has Grover to say to this?

Criminal Statistics,

We have received the following
from the division of vital statistics OF
the department. Of commerce and la
b0r:
Few social questions are asked
more frequently than, what is the In
crease of crime? The national census
bureau is seeking an answer to this
inquiry. 1t is undertaking to secure
a record of all the persons who are
sentenced to the various jails, peni-
tentiaries and other prisons during
the year 1904. ''The wardens Of the
state prisons and the sheriffs OF the
counties are being requested to act as
special agents to report certain facts
concerning every person delivered
into their custody. Some counties have
not been heard from. In some, per-
haps, there are no jaiis; iii others,
perhaps, the local jails are no longer
used; in still others the sheriff have
possibly neglected the matter. But
the records of the census bureau and
the resulting statistics will not be
complete until all are heard from, and
it Is hoped that the pressure of other
business vii ,ot cause the sheriff of
any county " block this most impor-
tant inquiry" We trust that all
South Carolina officials will comply
with this request. Such statistics are
matters Of general public interest and
are of much Importance in show
ing the people their actual con-
dition as to the number Of crimes COM
mitted within their state boundaries.

Keep the Record Straight.


Recently the Brooklyn Eagle said:
Twelve years ago Grover Cleveland
carried the common wealth Of Illinois.
The state then spoke for democracy
with no uncertain sound, backing the
credentials Of the victor in that year
with a majority of more than $4,000.
Four years later it went the other
way, after the fashion Of an ava
lanche, giving to Mckinley more than
five times the majority placed to the
cradit of his immediate predecessor as
president Of the United States. Bryan
ism operated either as an opiate or an
irritant. Whether IL chloroformed or
incensed, it had one ultimate, one
net result-it denioralized." r~'he Pub
lie, Louis F. Posts paper, comment
ing upon this statement, says:
"Twelve years ago'-1892; four years
Observe the symptomatic
omission of 1894. A truth suppressed.
What Is that truth? Turn to your
political almanacs and see. In 1894

The Knoxville Sentinel says: "Mr.
Cleveland used some of his character
istically plain language in branding as
a falsehood Tom Watson's statement
to the effect that he had dined Fred
Douglass. The old man hasn't for

is Mr.. Watson comes again and gives
his authority for his statements,
which will necessitate more than plain
language to disprove.
