Die Of Hunger with $500, 900 to Credit.

A recent dispatch from Black River
Falls. Wis, says: The Winnebago
tribe of Indians is facing miserable
end, though it has 100000 with the
National Government to its credit.
The red men are dying by scores of
consumption and are a heavy expense
to several towns. According to a
decision of the Supreme Court of the
United States, it is believed the
towns in which sick and poor Indians
reside must pay for their care, as they
would for any INDECENT citizen Sick
ness prevails and hundreds of dollars
are being needed to treat the decrepit
warriors.
Resident Indian Farmer A. P.
Jones is authority for the statement
that consumption, unless stopped,
will soon kill the whole tribe.
1t is said that little attention is
paid to the marriage rites among the
Indians in this vicinity, which has
resulted in demoralizing conditions.

Good Farming.

We, the people of upper South
Carolina, live in the best country un-
der the sun. Read this from the Easley
Progress of Wednesday: Speaking
of good farming, r. B. Byars, who
lives four miles west of Easley, made
last year 6,445 pounds of seed cotton
on three and one-ffth acres of land,
that eighteen Or twenty years ago was
considered worn out and would not
make one. quarter of bale to the acre.
He made this cotton by thorough
preparation and the use of about $50
pounds of standard fertilizers per
acre, and the variety of seed planted
was the Russell Big Boil. 1t ginned
out 1854 pounds Of lint and about
1000 pounds of seed. Byars has re-
dduuced his acreage this year about one
third and the use of fertilizers one

No Bread for the Poor.

'No home, no home," plead little girl,
At the door of princeiy nail,
AS she trembling stood on the polished
steps
And leaned on the marble wall.
Her dress was thin and her feet we're bare,
And the snow had covered her head.
ooh! give me home." she feebly cried,
"a home and a piece of bread"
"My father, alas, never knew"
Tears dimmed the eyes so bright,
my mother sleeps in new-made grave
'Tis an orphan that begs tonight"
The night wore on and midnight came,
The rich man closed his door;
And his proud lips curled with scorn as
he said:
No bread, no home for the poor.
81 must Freeze" she cried, as she sank
on the snow,
And strove to cover her feet,
Her tattered dress ali covered with snow,
Yes, covered with snow and sleet.
Tho rich man lay on his velvet couch,
And dreamed of his silver and gold,
While the little girl lay on q bed of snow,
And murmured, $50 cold, so coldw
The night wore on past the midnight
hour,
And the drifting snow still fell;
And the earth seemed wrapped in wind
ing sheet,
That came like funeral knell.
The nightwore on and the morning came,
She lay at the rich mans door,
But her soul had fed to that realm above,
Where's there's home and bread for the
poor. Ella Burns.

Farmers Alliance Litigation.

lJos. l.. Keitt, in The State.
The decision of the Supreme
Court dismissing the appeal from
Judge Gary's order, directing the
Master of Richland county to adver.
tise for creditors and stockholders of
the Farmers Alliance Exchange, ap-
pears to be based upon a question of
fact raised by my testimony that
there are no creditors of the ex.
change, and the statement of Nj. L.
Donaldson and j. G. Colts attorney,
who declined to submit proof of the
alleged claims while Mr.. Donaldson
was present at the reference.
desire, for the benefit of the
stockholders, who are numerous
throughout the State, to refer to the
following extracts of the report of
the committee on litigation to the
county trustees:
"The directors, cannot recognize
the claims of Donaldson and Colt as
valid, and no others have been pre-
sented. The. directors have no
desire to dishonor the exchange by
an effort to avoid payment of any
just claim. n On the 26th of
May testimony was taken by John S.
Werner, Master of Richland county.
~ M. L. Donaldson was present,
but much to our regret and disap.
pointment he did not undertake to
prove his claim. \ We saw to
you, gentlemen, that there are no
creditors of the Farmers Alliance Ex-
change, and we will defeat any claims
that are presented. We care not where
or when alleged claimants file their
claims, the courts are open to them,
but in justice to ourselves, in justice
to you, and in protection of the bene-
ficiaries you represent, we protest
against the stockholders filing their
claims with the Master"
A full meeting of the county trus-
tees, to whom this report was made,
adopted the following resolution
unanimously:
Resolved 3. In compliance with
the request of the committee, we
pledge ourselves not 10 file any claim
in court unless it becomes necessary
after final adjudication"
The Master of Richland county
advertised for claims, notwithstand-
ing the appeal, but we have had no
notice that Messrs. Donaldson and
Colt wish to undertake to prove
their claims. Their failure to meet
the issue is the real obstruction. We
are ready at all times to welcome
and meet these alleged claims when
an opportunity is offered, but we
will resist an attempt to smuggle
them through the court.

The South the Land Of Young Men.

The South has come into it's own
again. A few years ago we were
saying that the Southerner was not
aud never could be a business man.
Ever since the Civil war the business
of the South has been carried on by
Yankees, Germans, Jews and scatter
ing Scots and English. The Jews,
always alert in business, have been
in the majority in the retail trade,
and with Germans and Yankees have
controlled the wholesale business,
the financial institutions, and the
manufactures. BY fallacy which
time is disproving the failure of the
native Southerner to achieve bu.i-
ness success was set down to inhe-
rent lack of capacity. His failure
was really due to causes extrinsic
and accidental.
AT the close of the Civil war, only
the few Jewish residents of the
South had much money. The
Southern soldier was not discharged
when sent home to convalesce from
wounds and disease. Upon recovery
he was again in the ranks. He did
not serve three months, nine months,
two years. He served four years.
The larger part of the men who
fought in the Southern army carried
lead and disease ever after. 1t was
this impoverished, discouraged,
stricken people whom the outsider
distanced in the race for money.
Unused to commerce, the Southerner
not only saw the property repre-
sented by his slaves pass utterly
away, and his lands ravaged and his
houses burned, but ne saw men alien
to his region anticipate him in the
dawning opportunities of tardily
returning prosperity. He became an
onlooker in the land his blood had
watered. Others garnered as a re-
suit of his impoverishment.
But not 80 now, for the young
Southerner is forging to the front 80
fast that it now is more likely that
he will crowd the strangers out than
that they will seriously rivei him. He
has taken a leaf out of the book of
his rivals, and by the tactics which
have been at least as great factor
in their success as any other in arriv-
ing at prosperity. The Southern
tandem wedge is boring holes in the
lines of the opposition. The young
Southern men, often mere boys of
twenty-one and twenty-five, are run
ming the banks, the stores, the hotels.
They are exploiting great tracts of
land, feeding vast forests into the
saw mills.f TheyY are the railroad
men, the promoters, the brokers. Oil
wells gush, at their behest, towns rise
at their command. BY men under
thirty the greater part of the busi-
ness Of the South is now being done.
The Northerner who thinks of emil
grating to the South because he be-
lieves he can surpass the natives in
business capacity, will find foemen
worthy of his steel-keen, untiring,
and full of the nerve and enthusi-
asm OF youth. The South is the
new part, the young part of our do-
main. The west has become staid
and middle aged. The young man
has come to the front il the South,
and with him the. South comes into
its own once more.+-eLeslie's Weekly.

Facts About Time.

Time is hard to define. According
to the best poets time has heavy
foot, a tooth, forelock and breaka-
BILE legs. 1t travels in divers places !;
it ambles, trots, gallops, runs, rolls
and stands still it has whips; it
crops roses. So far it seems like a
horse. But it has forefnger, also
a reckless hand that writes wrinkles.
This explodes the horse theory.
Furthermore, time flies. Hence ga
bird of time" Time is money; be-
ing also a bird, time is gold eagle
perhaps money is the root of all
evil and procrastination is the thief
Of time. Therefore, procrastination
is. Opa chicken thief, GA good
thing. ,aoi. n n zgm.srN a3e ,oons.l
The wickedness of timeis beyond
question. 1t is vindictive.5 "T wasted
time" mourns King Richard, "and
now doth time. waste me- Time
waits for no man. Time shall throw
a dart at thee. Time robs us of our
joys. Time will tell. Time is aun.
thinking. Time presses its debtors.
Time is out Of joint, and well may it
be, considering what a nuisance 1T is.
Thine isa a sea, sandy beach, a
shoal and an abyss Also it is a
Whirligig, which seems odd when we
recall that time is quiet as a nun.
Time is good, bad, high, fine, rough,
