the high and lowly. and giving to all
the advantage Of his deep learning in
his profession. He was foremost in all
matters looking to the mental, moral
and commercial 5etterment of. his coun-
ty, State and country. He was a pol
ished and ornate public speaker and
could always be counted on to lift his
voice and use his great influence on the

Swamp-Root.

a Calamity Hn,rlc,.

The Charleston Gazette still sur
fers with the monomania regarding
hard times 1t took on last summer
and now finds the. country again in
the throes of an awful and far
reaching panic. 1t would not be
surprising to find bordered motto,
Look Out for the Big Bust" at
the head of the Gazette's editorial
column some morning. The Gazette
predicted hard times last summer.
1t predicted hard times last fall. ii
predicted hard times all during the
winter and it is now mapping
out another program OF consterna-
ton, confusion and calamity for the
rest of the present year.
So far does the Gazette carry lis
little joke that it breaches the sun
position of what would happen to
the country had Bryan been elected
to the presidency instead Of Taft
May our lucky stars preserve us all
from such terror-striking apprehen-
sions again! Men are too busy
minding their own business and too
anxious for peace OF mind to want
TO burden the gray matter of their
erains with such disquleting
thoughts.
OF course, the Gazette is entitled
to its little delusion and has tho
privilege of harboring it just as long
as it pleases. But the Telegram
would like to know. merely as a
matter of curiosity, why our esteem
ed contemporary persists in its en-

Defends senator Meredith.

Senator Meredith is the object Of
attacks here and there owing to the
fact that he voted against the sub
mission of the prohibition amend
ment in the form, presented. The
Charleston Gazette comes to his de-
tense as follows, in which are COM
pliments of his ability and exper-
fence, scarcely expected from par
tisan newspaper opposed to him po-
litically:
1t is pitable to observe the COM
ments of some of our neighbors upon
the vote of Senator Meredith on the
prohibition amendment. One would
suppose that this proposition is
fresh from inspired wit and that ey.
erybody is clamoring to go dry" If
these fulminations are to be accented
as gospel. Senator Meredith moves
easily among the strong, effective
lawyers OF the state. He is an edu-
acted. experienced man, who has
thought deeply upon the science of
government. His speeches in the
senate were always brilliant, sci,pl-
arly and logical. His enemies
admit his honesty and the state. ac-
'knowledges his courage. He openly
declared his reasons for voting
against the amendment in the form
in which it was arbitrarily insisted
upon. To place the senator's high
standing as legislator and lawyer
beside these undigested criticisms,
causes mirth here at the capital.
