to the size of joss stick that Is to be
made, Is skillfully rolled on an in.

Nominating DR.. J. II. Miller.

Cannot DR.. John II. Miller, of Cross
Hill, be induced to stand for re- election
to the legislature?
He is man who has succeeded in
his own affairs the only kind of man
who is really competent to look after
the public interests. AS Il rule, it is a
pretty risky business to expect man
who has himself been a failure to be a
successful legislator
DR.. Miller has served his county well
in the Legislature for the last two
terms, consequently he has experience
in such matters, which only fits him the
better for enlarged usefulness.
Again, DR.. Miller, if we mistake not.
is not only a good physician, but he is
also farmer and merchant, a comb
nation which enables him to know the
need of all classes.
He is, no doubt, a busy man, and 60
ing to the legislature will entail consid-
cradle monetary loss ON him, but we
believe he is patriotic enough to throw
aside such view and serve his county
Ordinarily, the man who can so with
out loss to himself is the man who is
not needed. Solid substantial business
men arc the ones needed by the ones
needed by the State to look after her
business.
Will not the doctor heed the call and
announce himself?

THE CURRENCY QUESTION.
A Matter Upon Which We Need Educa.
tiOn and Representation.

The discussion of the currency cues.
tlon by the candidates for United States
senator is an excellent sign of the times
Tor The obvious reason that the currency
Is not a partisan question and contribu-
tons to it are welcomed in congress,
whether the come from Republicans or
Democrats.
While South Carolina Democratic
senator must be soundly informed on
the tariff and other party issues, it is
PLAIN that he can accomplish no great
things in regard to them unless the
Democrats be in the majority. A Dem
ocrat Informed about the tariff would be
able to strengthen his party in debate,
but he would not be able to offer sug-
gcstion likely to be favorably received
by Republican majority. When the
tariff is mentioned in congress Demo
Gratis and Republicans instantly draw
their weapons.
On the financial or currency question
ton the division on party lines is not SO
clear and sharp. When the Aldrich-
Vrceland bill was under discussion two
or three weeks ago Mr.. Bryan tele-
graphed Democratic senators advising
them to support the contention of Sena-
tor La Toilette, Republican. Repub-
leans in the house, under the leader
ship of representative Fowler, differed
widely from Republicans in the senate,
Ohio, announced early in the session
that he would vote for any measure
offering relief, regardless of the party
proposing it.
1t follows that the senator about to
be elected from South Carolina, who
ever he may be, will have the ear of
Democrats and Republicans alike if he
have thorough understanding of the
currency question, if he have something
substantial to offer for consideration.
The truth is that few representatives
and senator's in either party showed any
respectable comprehension of the cur
rency and banking matters during the
recent debates in congress; any man
whose study of the subject has been
close and sincere and who has some
mastery of it will be heard with eager
ness in the next congress, though he be
staunch and uncompromisng Demo
crat he will have the opportunity of so
imprcssing his views that they may be
enacted into law upon their merits.
Hence, this topic to which three or four
candidates are directing attention is one
of Immediately practical Importance in
a measure far greater than is any other
question. A Democrat who really
knows about currency questions will
always be sure of a hearing. The News
and Courier.

An impulse to make his presence

And skies above are blue;

When with her cheeks aelcw.

Her bounty 10 bestow.
The cherry trees inviting stand.
With ripened fruit afame.
And in their summer setting bright
Look good enough to frame
The sod is soft as velvet way
And yielding to the tread,
While modest little yellow flowers
Look from their iowly bed.
The air is fragrant with the breath
From fields of clover bloom.
And every gentle breeze is rich
With natures sweet perfume.

Around the sheltered hive.
And. sizing up the case all round,

HARD LUCK ON ALL SIDES.
Cold sternness OF the Law Felt by

When Mr. Audibert. merchant a;
Salon. learned last June that the po-
lice had discovered in the cellars of
a certain Durand six cases of brandy
which had mysteriously disappeared
from his own cellars, he rejoiced, for
sc gallons of brandy represents con
siderable money. The magistrates in
due course sentenced Durand to six
months in prison and ordered the
cases returned to Mr.. Audibert.
Calmly then one day Mr. Audibert
went to the excise Offices where he
! had been told his brandy was and
asked for it.
What brandy?" asked the function
airy on dutF.
The brandy Durand stole from me "
Excuse me-" said the functionary.
did not Durand remove that brandy
from your cellars to his own?"
That's what thieves generally do"
said the merchant but why"
The functionary interrupted:
Had the said Durand before effect
ing the transfer taken out the permit
and paid the dues necessary before
alcohol can be transferred from one
cellar to another?'
Il think not, Mr.. Audibert was
forced to confess.
Then" said the functionary with
the tone of a supreme court judge.
this alcohol has circulated Illegally
and l coniscate it in virtue of the law
of April 2s. 1873
Since then Mr.. Audibert has ap-
pealed to justice. and that justice
which had ordered the brandy to be
cestored to him has declared the con-
fscation valid regular and legitimate

but all in vain. His brandy remains
in the clutches of the excise people,
and he is drawing up this notice to
affix to his cellars;

cellars to be kind enough to provide
themselves with a permit. New (
