If what Representative Whaley
o. Charleston. says Is t:rue, and
we believe him, Senator Till
man has been misinformed IN
shat matter Of making a s'dirty
bargain, for it turns out,
instead of a ''dirty bargain
made with the Charleston dele
cation, it was a member Of that
delegation who sacrificed Char
leston's wishes, and interests,
rather than accept what he re
garded a dishonorable PROPOSE
ton from the advocates Of the
State dispensary. Therefore the
Senator's assertion Of a "dirty
bargain" made to pass the Nor
gan bill through the House was
either based upon false informa-
ton, or it is the cry Of ''stop
thief" to divert the attention Of
the public.

will look for the Item to fly at

the Senator is backing some
other candidate fer Governor it
may be different.

TIE PEOPLE SHOULD WAKE Up.

From now until the May con-
vention the people viii have an
opportunity to look about them
and consider the matter of Sc

trusted with party affairs.
There is great need for reforma.
ton along the line. The primary
machinery is as much in need Of
reformation as any other institu-
ton which has to do with the
making up Of our government.
If the people want clean gov
ernment they must interest
themselves in the ground work;
they must take an active part in
the reorganization Of the party,
and this they cannot do if they
remain away from their club
meetings. It is the duty of every
citizen to attend his club meet.
ing, and have a voice in the Sc,
lection of delegates to the county
convention which sends dele
gates to the State convention
the body which makes the laws
governing our primary system.
If the people take no part in the
Initiative they are forced to abide
the consequences Of their own
Indifference, and thereby will
have to continue bearing with
the ills they are complaining Of.
We sincerely hope when the
clubs are called together for re-
organization the same interest
will be taken as was taken in
1890 when the issues were strong
and we'll defined. There is 40
reason why this interest cannot
be taken without passion-let
the people come together coolly
and deliberately work for clean
election methods, and a clean
government. If they will do so.
we feel sure there will be an end
to scandal, a condition which has
been daily held up to public
view.
Then again, it is absolutely
necessary, the people should
take lively interest in our po
litical methods, in order that
they may secure the services Of
their best men for the different

A Habit TO be Encouraged.

The mother who has acquired the
habit of keeping on hand a bottle OF
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, saves
herself a great amouns of aneasiness
and anxiety. Coughs, colds and Group,
to which children are Susceptible are
quickly cured by its use. It connter-
acts any tendency of cold to. result IN

The legislature has wiped the
sweat from it's brow: taken OF
it's apron, drawn it's pay, closed
up shop and quit doing nothing.
The most important piece OF
legislation was the pay drawing.
We do not think a single mem
Der can be charged with neglect
of duty, lodging, straddling or
evading the issue of pay certi'
fcates. They all>got ther'n.
What.did the people get: A
tax levy about the same as lost
year, a whole lot Of dispensary
buncombe, and the wiping out
of Hub Evans as chairman of the
State board. The dispensary is
unchanged except in the per-
sonnel of the board of directors.
The politicians would not per.
NIT any change, they wanted an
issue which will give them, with
Senator Tillman's aid, someth-
inc to ride in the coming
summers campaign. Just watch
the me-toos this summer. Sena-
tor Tillman will come before the
people and he will make the
liquor question the issue, then a
number of those wanting to be
governor, but who have always
despised Tillman, will catch his
coat-tails. We doubt if there will
be one original Tillman admlrer
in the list Of candidates favoring
the State dispensary; on the
other hand, there is likely to be
several T1llman-haters wanting
to profit by Tillman's arguments
on the stmmp. In our opinion,
the coming conflict may show up
a return Of Tillman to the United
States Senate, but we do not be-
lieve his tail-swingers will sue
ceed. Tillman may be able to
have himself elected, but he can
not, nor has he ever been able
to have anybody else elected.
The man who goes before the
people with a clear-cut local op
ton platform will win, and the
man who andvocates the State
dispensary will lose, and the
Tillman salt cannot save him.

CAT IN THE SADDLE.
RIDES ON THE BACK OF DOG
THAT SAVED 1T.
Shepherd Rescues the Feline from
the River and Thereafter
the Pair Become
Friends.

McKeever. n. Y.-William North
has an Angora cat that has struck up
such a friendship for his shepherd dog
that he rides on his back wherever he
oes. leeds with him, and ever
scratches up the bones he has buried
and carries them to him. The odd part
e! II is that the cat was tie dogs
when he Gal!antly saved him from
trpwnlng.
ne cat, which Florles in the name
4: hife, was fishing from a log in a
far sized river nor tar from the house
When the log broke loose from the
bGnk and floated out into the stream
lOm. the dog. had been hunting for o
bell cow, and was On his way home
wnen he was attracted by the cries Of
ais enemy, Mike. For few moments
hc seemed to enjoy the cats discom.
iiture, but suddenly Mr.. North saw hin
run down the river few rods anG
lump in above a series of falls.
The moment he struck water Tom
sfruc' out diagonally across stream
and lay In the path of the floating log
a? It passed he grabbed the cat by the
scrufi of the neck and swan with him
to shore. Then he stuck his nose in
The air, shook the cold water from
his shaggy hair, and trotted home
The cat followed, and that night be.
gan series of diplomatic endeavors
&c gain Toms affections. First he de-
clined TO steal his dinner; then he
brought his hero fat mouse: then
finally, when he refused to more than
wiggle the end of his tail, he dug up
one OF his bones and logged 1t to him
This act of servitude won Toms
heart, and the next day Mike was al
lowed to follow him about at a re-
spectful distance. BY the end of q
week both animals were eating from
the same dish, and at the expiration OF
fortnight Mr.. North was surprised to
observe Mike riding about the farm
on tie shepherds back. He has spen'
most of his time in the saddle" ever
since, and If any other dog offers Mike
insult he is likely to pay dearly fol
his folly. While the disputes are In
progress Mike will take the nearest
tree and remain in safety until the
battle is over.
Mr.. North objected to taking Mike
o!onG to the village and to the cream
cry mornings. but Tom sulked, and
the result was that Mike made tn,
trips on his back. He now goes fol
the cows with the dog, rides him to thu

with him. Once. when Tom got In {

RAPID FLIGHT OF TIME.
Mule That Aged Five Years Between
the Months Of February
and June.

Mr.. Justice Brewer, of the United
States supreme court, in lecturing to
his law class at the George Washing.
ton university, says the American
Spectator, told the following story:
Il knew of a case once where two
darkies swapped mules. One of them
was an old hand at the business, and
In making the trade he represented
his mule to be seven years old. and
told Of the many good traits the ami.
NAL had not. This was In February.
About two months later the other
darby began to realize that he had
been victimlzed in the bargain and
that the beast was fully IL years old.
So he decided to go back and tell the
swindler he had lied to him about the
animal. However, owing to 1t being
the busy season of farming, he was not
able to go until about the middle of
June. He finally did go, and told his
man what he thought Of his rascally
misrepresentation about the mule.
"You say" said the other fellow,
dat when you got de mule in Febru.
airy he was seven years old, and now
It's June and he's 10 years old?'
