The Successful Man.

The successful man is the man

what he has not done in the way of
achieving wealth and honor, if he

own fault, though he be the highest
in the land he is most pitable fail

Corn and Cash.

Corn in the crib is just like cash
in the bank.
Most farmers who have corn at
this season also have cash.
There are very few farmers who
have cash aNd no corn.
The man who buys corn at this
time has to send out of the country
cash that would be very acceptable
at home.
If York county should raise all
the corn she needs, there would be a
great deal more cash than there is,
because, approximately speaking,
every bushel of corn that comes
here from the West pinches one dol
lar off of the local circulation.
All good business men have more
or less appreciation of the extent to
which corn is a money crop. 1t is
only those who have less business Ca.
pacity who hold that there is no
money in corn.
1t is very rarely the case that a
farmer who makes enough corn to
run him until the next crop getslntc
financial difficulty and it is almost
as rare when a farmer who fails to
make sufficient corn to run his place,
gets to the next crop without
troubles.-YorkwM Enquirer.

WANT WILSON REMOVED.
Another Effort OF Florence People to
Get a White Postmaster.

WASHINGTON, May 3d. The
entire membership of the SoathCar-
olina dele cation in congress called at
the White House to-day and saw the
presi lent in regard to the situation
at the Florence postoffice. J.E Will
son, the present colored incumbent,
has been the postmaster the re for
about sixteen years, and recently a
movement was commenced by the cit
z.nsot Florence to have him removed.
Several meetings of the people of
that place have been held with this
object in view. Representative
Ellerbe was the spokesman for the
party to-day and told the President
among other things that Wilson is
and fer some time past has been
incompetent 10 properly discharge
the duties of the office.
Heis quite an old man and is not
-able to give personal attention to the
work of the office. The assistant post
master and the clerks and employees
lin the Office are young negroes, and
the conduct CT the Office, because of
Wilson's aye and physical condition,
has fallen on them. 1t is said that
they are impudent, impolite and
wanting in high degree in courtesy
and politeness. 1t was shown in ad-
dition to this that nearly 100 per cent
of the patrons of the office, including
both white and colored people,
desire change. Mr. Ellerbe asked
ahat some suitable person be named
for the place, and that if it was not
sPosSible to do this now that the
President would ut least not make
recess appointment.
The president told the delegation
that he would give the matter the
lmost careful attention. The name of
W.. Stroud has been submitted for
Wilson's place, and it is understood
that his appointment would give en-
tire satisfaction to the patrons of the
office. Ners e Courier.

accusation will die unuttered on

In that speech, a masterpiece of
logic, and burning with the eloquence
of sincerely and supreme conviction,
Mr. DAVIS said: II we'll remember

arraigned before the bar of the SEN

Whateverothers may have thought
of him-aud strong in his own con-
victlons of right and wrong, he re-
spected the opinions of others who
differed from him-to his own peo-
pie, thinking as he thought, beliey.
ing as he believed, he was and will
always be the object of their devo-
tion and undying love.
Others there were who cane-not

"Life of John Brown" the man
who had denounced Jefferson Davis,

Walking beneath the giAnt oaks,
strolling along the sandy beach, sit

the twilight, they came to know
each other intimately and well, and
there sprung up between them a
friendship born of mutual respect,
of lofty purpose and Of noble minds.
All was over then, the bitterness,
the blood-shed, the fighting. Citi.
zens of reunited country, they
could look back over the past'with
no bitterness, no regret. Each had
done his duty as God had gwen HIM

between them in the days of that
winter, no one will ever know; but
their souls were gripped together, as
it were, with hoops of steel. Dur

FIRST GOOD HOUSE
G. S. Cryne of Gladstone Erected
First Stone House in County,
But Takes off Hat to Original
Pioneer Settlers Hereabouts.

One day last spring a representative
of the Press in making the rounds of the
city strolled over to the depot to note the
arrivals and departures on No. 4. I
happened that G. S. Cryne was waiting
to take the train.to Glads tone and in q
few minutes the pioneer and reporter
were engaged in a very interesting con-
~versation (the reporter doing the heavy
listening part) relative to the early days
in Stark county. e, 3D..
In the course of colloquy Mr.. Cryne
remarked that he built the first good
house in Stark county. He emphasized
the good and went on to explain that
the first good house in this county was
built over Is years ago out of a kind of
stone, known as horn stone, supposed to
have come down from: Labrador during
the glacial period. The relator then
stated that it was really no supposition
but9a matter, of history Is to. the source
of these stones. ra.
While this interesting story of Stark
county history a being told a third
party. oqnitefan elderly man, became an
attentive Listener The reporter, as
would beaexpected. asked a few ques-
lions and'Sach time received the desired
answers. The third party made no re-
mark until. Mr.. Cryne mentioned for the
second time that ''the stone came down
from Labrador during the glacial period. -
To this our unknown friend remarked,
,Humph, uiI'm something of an old
timer myself, :" and he said it in such
d way that one might think that he dis
credited the story of how the stones
came 10 Stark county. MI. Cryne. did
not feeli Like taking all the responsibility
as to thetafrival of the stones in Stark
county and said to the other pioneer.
t'If1 you don't believe that the, stones
icame down from Labrador. l will refer
you to reports on scientific research.
'Theythird party apparently felt hurt to
think that: the. meaning of his first
fe1natks WAS misconStructed, but he set
himself fight when he replied to Mr..
.Cryne's last remark with these words
"ConfoJhd it, don't o s'pose know
where them stones originated? come
down on one of EN-"
I Mr.. Cryne had just time enough to
take off his hat to the stranger who had
him beaten as a Stark county resident
when the conductor shouted '.all aboard
