WEDNESDAY, Februry 19, 1890.
THE F A RKERS MEETING.
In another column will be found a
call for a meeting of the Clarendon
county Farmers' Association, to be
held in Manning the first Monday in
March. The call is in response to
the "Shell Manifesto," to elect dele
gates to attend a farmers' meeting in
Columbia next month.
Two years ago the farmers took a
decided stand in election matters, but
too late to have any material effect on
the result. This year with a complete
organization the farmers have it in
their power, not only to hold the bal
ance of power, but in fact to control
the entire election. They do not pro
pose working out of the Democratic
ranks for they themselves are the
Democratic party, numbering about
=line-tenths of the entire party in this
State.
Ben Tillman has done great good;
has put the farmers to thinking; has
indirectly been the cause of arousing
the people from their lethargic state
into a powerful, influential, and bene
ficial organization, the Farmers' Alli
ance; and he deserves great credit for
the good he has accomplished by his
revolutionary principles and work:
but whether his noble work should be
rewarded with the high office of Gov
ernor of State is to be determined
by the farmers of this State. We d
not believe that he would lower the
dignity of the office, nor are we pre
pared to say that he is the best man
for the position.
We published two weeks ago the
address of Mr. Shell; last week we
published extracts from a number o
our State exchanges, commenting or
this address. We have talked 'wiU
several prominent gentlemen in tbis
county, all members of the Farmers
Alliance, and while they disapprove ol
a good many things in the Shell ad
dress, Yet they say good will probabl
come of the State meeting, and it i
proposed to send delegates to th
meeng. As will be noticed i Pres
ident DesChamps's call, "all farmer
of Clarendon county" are invited t<
attend this meeting.
-Let every farmer in the county
who can possibly attend, come to th<
meeting, and before that time let ther
give the matter careful attention an
due consideration. Let every ste]
aken be such that those opposed t
~respect the motves and results. An
in eleeting delegates to the State cor
zvention, the chief aim of the count
meeting, let the very best men:i
Clarendon county be selected, men<
em uet judgment and conservati1
'ews.
ILLICIT WHISKEY SELLING.
Our editorial last week on "O0
e Ipotent Laws" seems not to ha
been written in vain. Laws are
value only so far as they are enforet
an a they are sustained by the se:
~tment of the people. For years il
-sentiment of this county has sustain<
lliithctale ofhiskey. It was i
-open secret, known alike to coun
agfiers, petit juries, grand Juries, tri
jueties, and plain citizens, that wh:
key was sold. Occasionally, we oug
to have said semi-occasionally, sor
-poor fellow having incurred the ills'
of a former boon companion, wou
-'be indicted for the offense, but the
wereare cases, and did not expri
*the sentiment of the county. But
bope achange is athand.
Summerton, noted for its his
moral influence and principles, has
a mass meeting of its citizens asse
bled, said that illicit whiskey-sefl
Pshall cease, and we believe the citizi
of Summertoni are honest in this
-pression of opinion. They have,
-stated in a communication elsewhe
reported two firms for the illicit a
ig of whiskey, and it will now
-pend on the jury, as to what disp
-tion shall beimadeof the cases. A
the citizens of Summerton are not
done with this matter, or should:
be done with it. In lesthan ahund
miles from Summerton, if rumor
- correct, there are a half dozen ot
whkite men, not to say anything of
gros who are engaged in illeg
selling whiskey.
We say to the people of Sumn
ton, God speed you in your g
work; keep a vigilant eye for the
breakers; and without fear or fa
with an eye single to justice, do y
duty. You are right; engaged
noble cause; and will receive
merited well-done of every good;
honest citizen.

To the people of Clarendon.
I am daily receiving an immense
,tock of spring goods, bought direct
rom first hands and at the manufac- u
urers' lowest prices, which are offered ti
o the purchasing public at tempting a
prices, and I stand ready to convince
any reasonable man or woman that
there is no house in Sumter or Clar
endon that can undersell me this
spring. This assertion is made because
it. has been my special business to s
purchase my spring goods with an eye s
single to capturing the trade of the
large number of farmers that have
made their arrangements to buy this I
year for cash, and I have made up my
mind to offer special inducements to
the people, and put a stop to their t
going to other towns to trade. C
Instructions have been issued to my
clerks not to allow a dollar to leave
my store if it is possible to prevent
it, and any person desiring to buy for 1
cash will have prices guaranteed them.
I have bought the largest and best
asssorted spring stock that has been
bought by me in many years, simply
because I am confident that there is a
disposition among the people of Clar
endon to patronize their county seat
if the proper inducements are offered
them, and this desire I am thoroughly
prepared to gratify.
Therefore, a cordial invitation is
extended to every person in the coun
ty to call and examine my new goods
just being opened, consisting vM all
the latest styles nf 1:ai~es- dress goods,
prints, sateens, ginghams, cheviots,
&c., India linens, mulls, Persian and
victoria lawns, batistes, and in fact all
kinds of white goods, also a most
beautiful line of embroideries and
flouncings, long cloths of all brands,
etc. If a lady can be pleased in any
store she certainly can be at mine
this spring. I have also been exceed
ingly careful in selecting a fine line of
ladies', gentlemen's, and children's
shoes. I have grown tired of hearing
complaints about the Manning shoe
stock, and determined to correct the
evil by placing upon my shelves the
very best shoe that could bo found in
market, and can safely say that I
now have the best shoe that has ever
been displayed in this town. My
clothing department has been filled
with the latest styles of men's, youths',
and boys' clothing, and will guarantee
that I can sell them as cheap as any
house in the State. Just come and
examine my gents' furnishing depart
ment if you would like to see the
prettiest line of neekwear that has
ever been brought to a country town,
and the prices are low.
The grocery and hardware depart
ments are always full and complete,
and I desire to impress it upon the
minds of the people that I will not al
low any merchant in this or any other
town to undersell me. Come and ex
amine for yourselves, get my prices
and then after a fair trial if I fail to
- satisfy you it is your privilege to go
elsewhere. Until then all that I ask
is a reasonably fair chance at your
patronage. MOSES LEVI.

lying Public Money to Catholic Insti
tutions.
In the official report of the city council of
harleston, in the News and Conrier of Jan
atry 30, 1890,we find the following item in
ie bill reported by the committee on ways
ad means, making appropriations for the
seal year ending December 31st, 1890:
'or the payment of the contract
with the Sisters of Mercy for
the support of not less than
seventy-five destitute orphans. $6,000.00
This simply means an appropriation of
6,000 from the public funds to sustain a
ectarian institution--the Catholic Orphan
ouse conducted by the Sisters of Mercy.
We suppose it is no news to the people of
harleston that the public funds are thus
aisappropriated. If we are correctly in
rmed, these appropriations have been
Liade for many years, and the amounts
tave been increased from time to time, un
il now it requires an annual expenditure
f $6,000 to satisfy the greed of the Romish
ihurch.
Appropriations of public funds to secta
-ian institutions at any time and under any
onditions are undemocratic and indefensi
)le; but in this particular case there is not
ven the excuse of charity for this misdirec
ion of the people's money. Charleston has
Ln orph; n house established one hundred
rears ago oy a city ordinance "for the pur
>ose of supporting and educating poor, or
,han children, and those of poor, distress
,d and disabled parents, who are unable to
support and maintain them." This insti
;ution has long been the pride of the city.
e doubt if a more worthy one can be found
tnywhere. it is entirely non-sectarian.
Ihe children of Jew and Gentile, Protes
ant and Catholic, may be sheltered within
Its walls. It is conducted by a board of
:ommissioners composed of some of the
eards citizens of the city and State, who
ire responsible to the city council for their
:fficial acts. The immediate management
is in the hands of Christian women of the
highest social nosition, the most unblem
ished charactei-, and the most thorough
calification for the delicate and responsi
ble work committed to them. If such an
institution, conducted with such signal
bility and success, is not good enough for
ur Catholic friends-or our friends of any
ther dcnomination for that matter-let
them establish and maintain their own in
stitution. Neither that, nor any other sect,
has any right, legal or moral, to draw funds
from the public treasury to support a secta
rian institution, even though it be an or
phan asylum.
This evil ought to be abated, but we have
no hope that the city council will do it. The
Catholics hold the balance of political pow
er in Charleston as they do in nearly all of
our large cities, and they know how to work
the political machine so as to secure their
ends. If any member of the city council
should oppose this appropriation he would
thereby sign his political death-.arrant.
Such is the hold that priest and nun have
over the politics and the public treasuries o
this free American Republic!
But there is a way of reaching and cor
recting this abuse. Thank God, the Stat
Legislature is not yet under the control ol
the strong arm of rome. Let the Protest
ants of Charleston, if they have the spir
of American freemen, petition the Legisla
ture to so amend the charter of the city o
Charleton as to make it forever illegal foi
the city council to appropriate one cent t<
any sectarian institution whatever, Catho
lie or Protestant. Even with such ai
amendment passed and ratilied, it will re
quire eternal vigilance to keep the traine<
and skillful hand of Rome out of the publi
treasury.-Suthernt Christian Advocde.

Rate of Interest.
The most foolish piece of legislation
which the present legislature is guilty is I
act limiting the rate of interest on money
8 per cent, per annum. This is the th:
time within tha last few years the usury la
have been changed.
Money in South Carolina at 10 per ce
is cheap. The value of money depends

- ment. It can't be fixed at an arbitr:
standard by an act of the general asse-mb.
; The farmers, who are responsible for t
change, will be the principal sufferers.
will have the result of throwing the farm
- back into the hands of the Charleston f
- tors, and finally into the hands of the lh
vers.
; Banks have been established all over1
- State under the old rates. These banks h:
done more to relieve the farmers of into.
able burdens imposed by the Charlesi
-commission men than any other thing-a
excepting good crops.
. These banks borrow their money at 6a
s7 per cent. and lend it at 10 per cent. TI
Scan't afford to lend it at 8. The result'i
be that the banks will have to close tl
s books against the farmers and othersv
; want long loans and become merely me
ums of commercial exchange, employ:
-. their own capita only.

other States where the security is equ.

Idiscover that he has badly mistaken

SoMTIIrN ABOUT FLoWER CULTURE.
-With a little energy and persever
ance almost any one can sultivate
flowers, and there is nothing that will
repay one for a little trouble so well.
But to have a nice flower garden of
choice exotics requires an outlay of
means, which few can afford, yet a
small garden cultivated with your
own hands will yield you far more
pleasure than the finest collection
cultivated by an experienced gardener.
Select a few varieties, give them atten
tion, and after gaining some experi
ence, then buy the choicer kinds. For
a brilliant, showy bed the petunia,
phlox drommondii, and verbenas are
the most suitable. If taller kinds are
desired zinrias, gladiolus, and French
marigolds are best. These are recom
mended to begin with as they are the
easiest cultivated. If you wish to have
pretty vines, and the soil outside is
too poor, or perhaps you may wish
them for an upper story piazza, take
a large wooden box about four feet
long and fill with rieb soil. Make a
lattice frame and nail to the back of
the box. Plant near the frame morn
ing glories and cypress vines. In front
plant three or four geraduniq; bright
colors, pansies, etc. Paint the box
and frame, and with -a little attention
you will be well repaid for your
trouble, and have a very pretty orna
ment for the sunny portion of your
piazza. Some drooping vincs to hang
over the box will be an improvement.
CnocIEfD SLrUnPER.-Double zephyr,
or fine Germantown wool of any desir
able color may be used. Begin the
design at the back by making a chain
of 21 stitches. Work 13 rows in
Tunisian crochet, then work 7 stitches
in the air, that are to be joined at the
13th row to make the top of the foot.
Separate the first 21 stitches and work
all around the slipper, having an open
ing on the foot. Diminish by drop
ping one stitch at the beginning and
end of each row, for 12 rows. Close
the slipper on the wrong side with the
hook, also close the under and back
seams by joining the 21 stitches in
the middle, and fastening them on the
wrong side to form the top of the
shoe. Work successively 3 rows on
the 7 stitches in the air. Finish the
whole by working a row of half-bars
all around, and line with silk.--DEonws
