Edenfield Advertiser THUS. J. ADAMS,.EDITOR - -; WEDNESDAY, AUG. 31. _ - The negro cotton mill in Colum bia proved to have been a failure. - ' - Georgia realized one million dollars from her peach crop this year. The Philippine natives enjoy 129 holidays a year. They never hurry or worry. The witch doctor is a big man among them. The Ladrones would be a good place for our tramps. Few people work there, and tho bread fruit there supplies them with food. During the breaking up of Gen. Wheeler's camp the Cubans stole a large amount of camp fixtures, and personal effects of the soleiers. Barnwell county had more can didates during the present cam paign than any other county in the State. The number being 47. Out of the 1,021 men enlisted in .the First South Carolina regiment 6S0 have signed a petition to be mustered ont of service. The offi cers are very much chagrined. In the Philippines 200 dialects are spoken ; $25 will build and furnish a native's cottage ; seventy volcanoes are in constant eruption, and an earthquake in I860 killed 7,000 people. It ?3 the President's purpose to promoto the officers who rendered conspicuously meritous services in the land fights at Manila, just as was done in the case of the gallant officers at Santiago. The Philippint. Islands, over which Gen. Merritt will rule as military governor, have an area exceeding that of the New England States, New Jersey, Maryland, and Delaware. The population is about 8,000,000. ~~~~~^~mmm "Trade follows the flag" is the ancient maxim. Applied to Cuba and Porto Rico it means a com mercial revival or boom of no small proportions, and cotton good's in these tropical islands \ will ba in great demand. The biggest flag in the world has been unfurled at Tyrone, Pa. The flag is m feet wide b-jyin&Mui\r-; cable 3,200 feet long from peak to peak of the two mountain ranges . between which Tyrone lies. Judge Day left the cabinet be cause he was too poor to be a sec re cary of state. The president has appointed, it is said, John Hay, who is a millionaire, and another ^-millionaire, White Law Reid, will be ambassador to England. Hay and Reid were newspaper men and married "pluttercrat wives." Governor Ellerbe seems to have made a "help me Cassius, or 1 sink" appeal to Senator Tillman at Edgefield, but the astute politician was to snarp to get mixed up in the fight. He mingled with the boys but did not make a speech. He remembers the Earle-Evans campaign.-Spartanburg Herald. Seven hundred Spaniards have been cremated near Santiago. They ! died of disease and it seemed to be the only humane way to dis pose of them. Stacked upon rails and crossties to the height of ten feet, they were saturated with kerosene and then set on fire. Half burned bodies strewed the ceme tery. The sight was horrible. The design of the Dewey mem orial sword was submitted by Tiffany & Co. of New York. Its marked characteristc is its simple and solid elegance. On one side of the blade is the inscription : "The gift of the nation to Rear Admiral George Dewey, U. S. N., in memory of the victory at Manila bay, May 1, 1898." A great sensation has developed in Washington over the discovery of an alleged plot in the war de partment against Gen. Mrles. It has "leaked out" that President . McKinley wired Gen. Miles to take charge of and direct the San tiago campaign, but that in some ^ inconceivable way the) telegram was stolen and one substituted giving the command to Gen. Shaf- . ter. ____________ i Bill Arp in his travelG over the 1 country makes some shrewd ob- \ serrations, as witness the follow ing : . 1 There is an increased acreage of ' cotton all over this beautiful un dulating region, and it betokens a most bountiful crop. How kind , these farmers are to us. We get our cotton goods now for almost nothing, but the farmers sympa- ( thize with our poverty and intend ( to make them cheaper still. i The city of Manila had street sars long before Charleston. In the Philippines they sweep by tying a string to a greasy rar; and dragging it all over the ??oor. Senator Archer has been poking the auimals at a lively rate. At Edgefield he made a jab which came near bringing the blood. On the platform Candidate Archer said: It was very peculiar that Neal's report gave J. B. Watson, of Ander son, credit for $1.60 for the hire of 30 convicts for one year. This is a very serious intimation wen it is remembered that the Watson referred to is very nearly related to the said Neal. We have had intimations of this character before and in view of the -fact that' the said Neal has assumed the role of grand high muck-a-muck for state and Manager for Governor Ellerbe, it is a little strange that this penitentiary report has figuf ed iso little in the preoent campaign. Now what is Superintendent Neal going to do about it. Is he going to doctor his bookkeeping, or will he lie low and say nothing. The case is with you Mr. Neal !. Senator Archer rests.-Spartanburg Her ald. ? Dun's commercial agency gives the following as a resume of the business outlook for the week end ing Ang. 27th: The volume of business. .fleeted in exchanges at the principal clearing houses is 20.4 per cent, larger than last year, and 26.8 per cent, larger than in 1892, heretofore the year of largest business and highest prospeity ever known. Part of this increase was due to speculation at New York, but there remains a healthy increase over the best of previous years, and though in some branches business is not satisfactory in character, in nearly all it is in volume larger than ever before. No nnfavorable change appears in the prospect of crops upon which the welfare of the country so largely depends, nor is there present threatening financiai disturbance. Europe haB not wearied of buying American securities, although some speculators have been sel?Dg, nor is there shown any want of confidence among American inves tors. The money maket is running smoothly, without any symptom of danger, and the unusual delay ^iSIBufjD6or^?^?wLcr0P?S^^? carried in the banks of that section. WHAT KIND OF A DEMO CRAT IS THIS? Senator McLaurin favored the Republican doctrine of protection in his campaign for the United States Senate, and a good many foolish democrats voted for him, although they must have known it was a|departure ^from the faith of the fathers, and now he goes a step further and favors the re-election of republican President McKinley, hear him: "If the Presidential election should take place now," says Sen ator McLaurin with great earnest ness, "I would be in favor of re nominating him by acclamation and electing him without putting another candidate in the field against him. He has shown won derful judgment in dealing with the war problem. I voted for the recognition of Cuban independ ence, but I am free to admit I made a great mistake. The President was right in refusing to recognize the insurgents. They have demon strated to ail reasonable men that they are nothing short of a coward ly band of robbers, without an or ganized form of government or any army. The President has done a great and lasting service to the country in utilizing the war to wipe out all traces of sectionalism, he has known no section or party in the administration of the high duties imposed upon him, and his appointments of Butler, Lee, Wheeler, Gordon, to high and re spo isible positions has won the hearts and sympathy of the men and women of the South, and he is to-day the pride of the entire na tion. I predict that his peace policy will be as wiee and firm and as much of a success as was his war policy." Endorsing Bryan. Cincinnati, 0., Aug. 24-The Democratic State convention adopted these resolutions today: "We particularly endorse the financial plank therein, declaring for the free and unlimited coinage of silver and gold at the ratio of 16 to 1, independent of any other aation. We are proud of the patriotic conduct in peace and war )f that braye leader of democracy, William J. Bryan, and we favor MS renomination for president in L900." ; The platform favors an income tax and thanks the minority in :ongress for seeking to secure jnst iistril ution of tho war taxation equally upon the wealth and ?orporatione of the country, as well is upon its labor." YOUMANS DEALS WITH THE COTTON YIELD CONVENTION WILL LIKELY BE HELD ON IMPOR TANT MATTER. Southern Planters Have a Plan, Which is Said to -tie the Only On. That Can Save Them From Impending Disaster. A Warn ing. The following letter on the vitally important subject of the handling of this year's cotton crop has been received by the president of the South Carolina Cotton Growers Association : Fairfax, Aug. 22, 1868 Hon. J. C. Wilborn, Yorkville, S. C. My Dear Sir: I have just return ed from Memphis, Tenn., where I have been as the vicepresident for South Carolina to attend a meeting of the executive committee of the American Cotton Growers Protection Association. At this meeting, after electing Col. Max well, of Louisiana, president, to succeed the late Hon. Hector D. Lane, deceased, and after simplify ing the title of the organization by changing it to that of the National Cotton Growers Union, it was determined by the president and vice-presidents to inaugurate a vigorous policy on the part of the cotton growers of the South to meet the requirements of the present threatening exigency of lower prices and impending ruin. From the best informed and most reliable sourcoa of informa tion, the committee unanimously amved at the conclusion that the present crop would fully equal, if no exceed the last, and, if rapidly thrown upon the market, would in all probabil ity sell far below 5 cts. In view of the fact that the cotton growers have the present crop of from ten to twelve million bales now in hand, while manufactures and speculators have only about three million balee, if that, and that if the cotton growers would withhold the present crop from the market for 90 days, say till Decem ber 1st, the world would be bare of cotton and at the mercy of the cotton growers for their supply, determined to effect a thorough and complete organization of the cotton growers beginning with the smallest geographical sub-division with a view of holding the present crop and following up this line of action, through the medinm of township clubs, by enrolling all It is manifestly, clear that such a line of proceeding would place the cotton growers in command of the situation and change the outlook from one of bankruptcy and run to one of profit and com petency. It further seems than an effort in this line would meet with tba aid and approval of almost every businese interest in the south. Well knowing that the principal obstacle to the accomplishment of this undertaking would consist in the maturing obligatiens of the cotton growers, incurred in the production of the crop, a special committee has been arranged for, consisting of one member from each State, to confer with capitalists and provide the neces sary funds to take up these l'ens and carry the cotton until such' time as it can be disposed of at a profit. Under instructions from the executive committee of the Nat ional Cotton Growers Union, with a view of placing South Carolina in a position to carry out these propositions, I now call upon you as the president of the organization in this State to call a convention to meet in Columbia at the earliest possible day. Please UBS such diligence as will secure a full representation from each county in the State. Should our State act with promptness and decision, it would in all probability have a most happy effect on all the other cotton growing States. Th?s is a matter of vital conse quence to the entire cotton belt and too important to brook any unnecessay delay. While I have thought proper to give you an outline of the commit tee's plan of proceedure, it was thought best by the committee not to make it public just yet. Yours very sincerely, L. W. YOUMAKS. Senator McLaurin has put his foot into it, and his latest devia tion from the proper course of a democratic official reminds others of his action soon after he entered the United StateB Seuafe. Per haps his first appointment was given t* a populist, the avowed leader of that party in South Caro lina, when he put Mr. J. W. Bow den in office and displaced a dem ocrat. Senator McLaurin needs ballast in his public career, and is fast proving his incapacity as a political leader-Greenville Moun AIS" ATTACK OF HYSTERIA. A Tendency to Look Only at Surface ' Indications-Let Us Suspend Judgment Until We Know the Facts. The Atlanta Constitution com ments as followsupon the hys terical declarations of the junior Senator from South Carolina : lu publishing the interview The News and Courier intimates that McLaurin was "carried away with his success" in securing some concession with regard to a South South Carolina regiment, and that it was on this account that he went into the fit of "hysteria which seems to have attacked him on the White House steps. For the sake of the Senator, for whom The Constitution has high regard, wo trust the report of his interview is not correct. If it is, I * * * it indicates a tendency to look only at surface indications, which ie expected of a United States Sena tor. This sort of thing is on th? same plane as the work of the Was. hington journalists who hav< succeeded in filling a great deal oj: space in certain newspapers witj descriptions of "how splendid^ the President has stood the strain f of how "there is still color in t?? Presidential cheeks" or is net, just as suits the writer's fancy; ?f -"midnight vigils" and a lot )f other rot in the same strain. The country can see nothiig wonderful in the part the Pr?sidait has played in this war. He las acted as a sensible, wideawfke American through it all ; he Iras .had neither hysteria nor the im jams, and has done his part wall. He has done his full duty. There has been nolhiug wonderful in that The Senator makes grave anc se rious charges against the Cubans, and in this jumps at conclusions with a haste that is unseemly.. Be cause a lot of the American sol diers sent tj Santiago to do police duty have disgraced themselves, the army, and the country, does ihat warrant the Cuban regarding th? American people as robbers, thieves, firebugs, and rape fiends? Because some of the Cubans stole food and clothing from the soldiers, are all the Cubans to be damned as "cowardly xobbeis," as Senatoi McLaurin sees them? It may be that those ?vho voted recognition made a mistake, but il is the duty of a United States Sen ator, as well as the rest of us, tc suspend judgment until we knoi* the facts. Aa for the opening and tjhe con< ' TSaurTfTs marvelousLmtemew;TH( less said the better-for him. I; a visit to the Whice House' causei him to give his indorsement pf tnt Piesident'8 policy in advance ol knowledge of what it will be, and leads to his crying out for the unanimoub re-election of the' man who, however good and wise he may be personally, stands for all that is bad in American politics; if he is going to let visits to the White House have that effect upon his judgment, in all kindness we advise him to stay away. Too great intimacy at that mansion has worked havoc on the political as pirations of mauy a man." In Spite of Hard Times. About fout years ago Mr. J H Pearce came to Williamsburg from Darlington county. He was a poor man and had to work as a farm laborer at six dollars a month, he worked hard aev odhis money and now owns a comfortable home near Cades, a well-stocked farm of 250 acres and is out of debt. This has been done in four years by a man dependent on his own labor, in "If c price can be placed on pain, 'Mother's Friend ' is worth Its weight in gold as an allevi ator. My wife suffered more in ten minutes with either of her other two children than she did al together with her last, having previously used four bottles of ' Mother's Friend.' It ls a blessing to any one expecting to become a mother," says a customer. Thus writes Henderson Dale, Druggist, of Carmi, 111., to the Bradfield Regulator Company, of Atlanta, Ga., the proprie tors and manufacturers of "Mother's Friend." This successful remedy ia not one of the many internal medicines ad vertised to do unreasonable things, .but a scientifically prepared liniment especially effective in aading strength and elasticity to those parts of woman's organism which bear the severest strains of childbirth? The liniment may be used at any and all times during pregnancy up to the very hour of confinement. The earlier it is begun, and the longer used, the more perfect will be the result, but it has been used during the last month only with great benefit and success. It not only shortens labor and lessens the pain attending it, but greatly dimin ishes the danger to life of both mother and child, and leaves the mother in a con dition more favorable to speedy recovery. " Mother's Friend " issold by druggists at $1.00, or sent, by express on receipt of price. Valuable book for women, "Before Baby is Born," sent free on application.

Tere in no State in the Union wjh more natural advantages than Spth Carolina* and no county ij/the State where it is easier to rake a living than Williamsburg. His is only one of the several istances we have in mind, where, aringthe last few years, men darting with no capital, have suc eeded remarkably well as far mers in this county.-Kingstree jtecord. England is said to have contratc d with the Pocahontas Coal Co., to furnish coal for all her coaling stations. Seven cargoes have been recently shipped, aggregating over se jenty thousand tons. If this be true it is evident that in the event of an Anglo-Russian war England will not be caught unsupplied with coal as Spain was. It is possible also that the awarding of such a contract to an American concern may have its bearing on the attitude of the United States. England evidently desires the backing of the United States and it is not unlikely that she would receive considerable encourage ment from America. We have never had a serious difficulty with Russia but there is no bond of sympathy between either the gov ernments or peoples of the two counties.-Ex.. ? The attitude of the enlisted men in the First Regiment who wish to be mustered out of the service will obtain the sympathy and support of their families and friends it home. Under the most favorable circumstances camp and garrison life will not attract the average South Carolinian) and such servioe in a tropical climate with the ex posure to disease and excessive heat will utterly fall to charm our soldiers. The war department seems to be anxious to meet the wishes of all the soldiers, and it is evident that petitions for release from service will be duly consider ed, whether or not the officers of any regiment are favorable. Volunteers are not to be treated ae regulars, and their wishes in regard to continuance in service ought to be respected not only by the war department, but by theil commanding officers as well.
