FUTURE IN SOUTH CAROLINA.
Danger Lies Not in the Voters, Bat I'm
Designing Politicians.
(southern Textile Bulletin

The recent primary in South Caro-
Ina has demonstrated two facts of
considerable Importance which will
nave Z great effect upon the future
history OF the South.
The first Is that the cotton mill
operatives )f South Carolina are the
controlling factor in the State cleo
tons, and that no man can in the
future nope to fill a State office with
out their approval.
The second fact demonstrated is
that the daily press of the South has
largely lost it's influence, and that
the support of many OF the papers
has become a liability rather than an
asset,
The first proposition would be of
nc serious moment If the mill opera
lives were left to exercise their own
free wills In casting their ballots, for
they are OF as good blood as there is
In the world, and their natural ten
deney Viii be to vote for good gov
eminent.
The danger, however, lies In the
fact That selfish politicians, ~recogniz-
Ing that they can only secure office
through The support Of the mill peo-
PIE, viii cater to them and strive in
S'S's "'' " SllI up Cnelr passions
and ~preiudlces.
This statement has no reference to
the primary which has Just closed.
but to the natural trend Of politics
In tho future.
The NM owners and tho mill one
latives OF South Carolina have lived
with a Cciendly feeling for each other,
and as It rule the mills have spent
considerable in their effort to i'm
prove the comfort and we'll being of
their employees. We wish to see
such a condition continue and take
no pleasure in evil predictions, but
We know politicians, and that their
natural course is to cater to the class
OF HoteS nat car give them the Of
hccs, and that class in South Caro-
'ina has been demonstrated to be the
cotton mill operatives.
The Gully thing that can prevent
evil "rects in the future will be the
education and morab development
az the mill people.
The safe Of South Carolina will
lave to en- large her educational facil-
tiles, aud the mill wner will have
to nut $ttl more attention upon well
rare work in all Of its branches.

ENGLAND HANDLES HoHOEs.
WEARY Willies' Will Soon 10 Seen
No Longer in that Country.
A dispatch from London a. 70.

A dispatch from London says:
The tramp problem In the British
Isles Is in a fair way towards solu-
ton. The "way ticket" method of
dealing with vagrancy Is accomplish
ing a revolution. The latest re-
ports on the working Of the system
indicate that within a very few years
the ranks of the ragged mendicants
on the highways Of the United
Kingdom will be reduced almost to
vanishing point.
to give a better chance to the I'M
employed who really want to work.
and to make the way Of the profess
sional tramp as hard as possible.
The man who wants to work, but Is
compelled to take the road Is taken
into the poor house at night and re-
leased next morning instead Of suf-
fering the usual period Of detention.
When leaving he Is given a ticket
which entities him to a certain al
lowance Of bread ant cheese along
the road he Intends to take. He is
also put in touch with the local labor
exchanges and everything possible Is
done for him If he shows a genuine
desire to obtain work.
On tho other hand, the hab}tuaI
tramp obtains short shrift. After
spending he night at the poor house
he suffers the usual period Of deten-
ton and gets the allotted task. FL
nally he Is given the ''way ticket"
so that he has no excuse for begging.
Very soon the poor house masters
begin to look >askance at the man
who persistently presents the ticket,
and his journey from village to viii
lage, and from poor, house to poor
house, in the. counties where the
system prevails Is not made any too
smooth. The tramp finally seeks q
county where this method does not
prevail, 80 these s%anctuaries are be-
ginning to adopt the system in self
defense,
The system only btcolnes succps3~
Iul when The ho~uschOldGrs c0-ope
rate, Circulars are f&ancd instruct.
ing them that, since III yagranla
have access to The bread tickets.
there is no excuse for giving food to
beggars, and the tramps who neglect
to provide themselves with the tick
cts are beginning to learn that the
circulars have not fallen on barren
soil.

TO FIND GERM OF LIFE /?
English Scientist Says Possibility Not
So Remote As Supposed.
A dispatch from Dundee, SEQ

A dispatch from Dundee, Scot
land, says:
The most interesting feature Of
the opening session to-day Of the
British Association for the Advance
ment Of Science was the presidential
address this evening of Prof. A.. e.
Schaefer, of Edinburgh University,
which dealt with the nature, origin
and maintenance of life. In his ad-
dress he said:
I'VE may fairly conclude that all
changes in living substance are
brought about by ordinary chemical
and physical forces"
Speaking of the properties Of
growth II reproduction, he de-
clared:
"They are possessed not only by
living bodies, for inorganic CRYSTALS
grow and multiply and reproduce
their like, given a supply of the re-
quisite substance"
Further on he said:
1T has been proved that we can
no longer consider such an appar-
emily vital phenomenon as the fertili-
cation Of the egg as being the re-
suit of living material brought to It,
since 1t is possible to start the pro-
cess Of division Of the cell in the
egg and the resulting formation OF
cells and ultimately Of all the It's
sues and organism short, to bring
about the development Of the whole
body-if a simple chemical reaction
Is substituted for the male element
In the process Of fertilization. We
may eve hope some day to see the
material which composes the nucleus
OF cell life prepared by the combina-
ton OF the proper ~substances.'
In summing up, he said that re-
search Seems to point to the conclu-
sion that the possibility Of the pro-
duction Of life, that is, Of living ma
terial--is not SO remote as has been
generally assumed"

BACHELORS FALL UNDER BAN.
Advocates OF Cei;baeJ III France De.
claIpd Enemies Of Republic.
A dispatch from Paris says:

The birth rate is steadily declin-
ing, bachelors are looked upon as
common enemies, and some of the
newspapers are advocating to pun
ish bachelors as they were pun shed
IN olden times. A number of these
outlandish punishments are being
widely discussed.
Some advocate the ancient Greek
FASHION, which ordered bachelors,
once per annum to assemble at a
certain place and there submit to
having their ears boxed by mothers
who couldn't get rid Of their daught-
ers In marriage.
In other parts Of Greece bachelors
We're looked upon with such con-
tempt that no one would reply to
thelr salute. "Why should WEI"
asked the people. "You have no
die" 80
Again, it is advocated that bache-
iors pay three times the ordinary
taxes, the tax to Increase every year
Ill order to drive them to marriage 20.
On the other hand it Is admitted
that a man without q wife saves him
self a lot Of trouble and but
say the advocates Of furnishing bach
elors, individual life is short, while
that Of the nation Is long or ought
to be long-Hence. get busy and
marry.
Other people write to the news
papers calling the bachelors names,
and denOuncing them as corrupters
of society. One man makes this
suggestion:
Society should be divided into
five classes. All parents of ten chill
dren or more shall belong to the
first class, and three more classes are
graduated according to the number
of offspring. Bachelors, male and
female, shall belong to the fifth and
last class, and shall be obliged to
wear a green and yellow button on
their hats to proclaim to everybody
their utter w~ickedness and useless
ness"
