SNOW Is ALL RIGHT
BUT WHY BEAUTIFUL?
: Especially If You Are the Man
That Does Your Own
: ShOVeling.
III SIBLEY.


SNOW, snow. beautiful snow"
That is what the poet said. 1t is a
very pretty sentiment. Evidently he
had lots of snow TO draw inspiration
from-a snowstorm like the one that
greeted US this morning. no doubt
for he has mentioned snow three
times.
To my mind. he might have left out
the beautiful" and got another snow
in there. but I suppose he wanted to
add a little more variety. From the
optimistic view he takes of the snow,
however, 1 arr inclined to believe that
he had a wife TO shovel the walks for
him. or else lived in a flat and the
janitor did it: at any rate it is plain
that he didn't have to get up at seven
in the morning and wade trough hip
high (hip-hip-hooray) drifts TO get to
his work. This is probably the correct
explanation. for poets usually do their
poeting at home, in bed, or down in
the empty coal bin. which is always
suggestive OF touching sentiment.
Now if it had been assigned me to
write a little verse on snow I should
have said "Snow. snow. omnipresent
snow" I could have used three or
four more SHOWS 10 good advantage
and punctuated it with a Darn" The
first snow would have been that por-
ton which buried my front stoop and
walk. the second those chilling gobs
which forced their way up my trouser
legs, and the third those discomfort
ing flurries which crowded down my
neck and thawing. pursued their in
vestigations further.
The present snowstorm this morn
ing found most of US unprepared for
such tardy visitation. The weather
man has been coaXing us along TO
think the Florida had slipped up a
few notches: we have been wearing
light clothes. thin. pervious shoes
ear muffs and fur caps have been an
unknown quantity this so-caIled win
ter. Most OF Us have lost our snow
shovels and incidentally the desire TO
shovel snow.
Hence. TO awake last morning and

Where was Senator Smith during
the recent State convention? l no.
ticed that he delivered some addresses
in South Carolina about that time
which shows that he could absent
himself from Washington, if he de.
sired to do so. The Lee county con-
vention elected him a delegate to the
State convention. Why did he fail
to attend?
THE recent State convention was
composed of many who were in the
Haskell movement and many others
who were in sympathy with that
movement. An effort was made by
members Of that convention If not on
the floor Of the convention, then GER
tainly by newspaper articles and
otherwise, to influence the convention
to adopt our general elction require
mcnts for our primary. This was not
done, but the convention adopted
rules and regulations that are unjust
that are unreasonable and burden
some and that have disfranchised
many thousand white men.
IF Senator Smith is such friend
to the farmers of South Carolina why
did he not attend the convention and
use his influence to prevent this in
justice to them. Why humiliate an ex.
Confederate soldier who may be un-
able to write by making his mark
Why humiliate any white man who is
SO unfortunate as not to be able t.
write his name by requiring as a pre-

SENATORS DESERT PRESIDENT.

becoming angered and violent in
speaking to Mr.. Richards, was ar
rested.
Mr.. Richards picked up a tumbler,
looking threateningly at the crowd and
cheers for 'Hurrah for Smith" and
"Hurrah for Blease" were frequent
during the reading Of his statement,
which is as follows:
when Senator b. II. Tillman or.
ganzed the farmers in 1890 and
hurled this mighty force Of reformers
against those who had control of our
State government and through ring
rule methods had dominated our pol
itics for years, where was Senator L..
d. Smith then?
Did Senator Smith align himself
with the farmers and those who were
working to place the ballot and the
control of this government in the
hands of the people Of South Carolina
or was he in league with those who,
under the leadership Of Col. Haskell,
had banded themselves together in an
independent movement to defeat the
will Of the people of the State?
Since Senator Smith has been in
the senate of the United States has
he been fair to the farmers and old
line reformers in his recommendations
for appointment to positions in this
State, or has he been true to his pre-
delictions Of 1890 and recommended
only those who in that great revolu-
ton were hand and glove with the
classes against the masses?
Some years ago the merchants and
cotton buyers required our cotton to
be wrapped entirely up with not less
than nine yards Of bagging. Thirty
pounds is deducted as tare before the
price of our cotton is fixed. The price
OF cotton being much greater pei
pound than that of bagging, the farm.
er was in a measure recompensed fol-
his loss in tare. About three years age
an edict, which may be called the edict
Of Charlotte, was issued forbidding the
putting of more than six yards of bag
ging to the bale. which resulted ir
an annual loss to the cotton growers
of not less than 100000.
"Since Senator Smith with two spurs
on jumped astride Of a bale Of cOttor
and rode into the United States senate
the politicians have so completely Gov
4 cred our cotton bales. that it is said nc
other covering is necessary and thai
we may expect another edict forbid
ding the farmers from furnishing
anything but the ties.
Did Senator l.. d. Smith increase
the price of cotton, If so, how?
If Senator Smith increased the
price Of cotton, who increased tho
cost of living? l am having peas
sowed today and they are worth $3.50
per bushel. Who raised the price o
peas?
