Edgefield Advertiser THOS. J. ADAMS, - - - ' - . EDITOR THURSDAY, MARCH 23, 1893. = Gen. Wade Hampton has been appointed Commissioner of Rail roads by President Cleveland. Sixty-four of the United States Senators are lawyers, one a preach er, one a doctor, and one a jour nalist. On a dollar bill a Washington board of health doctor recently found the germs of three different diseases. The report of the earnings of the railroads in this State shows a marked improvement over the business of last month. The hearing of the South Caro lina railroad case in the Supreme Court has been postponed from the 27th of March to the 3rd day of April. Rev. Ira Hicks, the weather prophet, makes a dreadful forecast of blizzards, storms, and earth quakes for the balance of March. It is to be hoped that he is out of his reckoning. N. G. Gonzales, editor of The State, is an applicant for the con ship at Shanghai, China. He wants to go where the Shanghai chickens grow so tall that you can't hear 'em crow, in a few days. The Columbia correspondent of the News and Courier says that there is an increasing probability that "Uncle George" Tillman will - be a candidate for Governor next year. _ The new state of Washington has passed a cigarette law that gets next to the skin. It makes it unlawful to manufacture, buy, give away, sell, or have in one's possession cigarettes, or cigarette paper. The year 1893 is to be a great cotton year, but a poor corn year. This is the prediction of Joff Welborn, the great Texas' farmer. The conclusion from this is that you must plant less cotton and more corn. OB---?--^-^fc i j The appointment of Judge Gres ham to be Secretary of State, is the first instance in the history of this country of the appointment of a member of the opposite party ' to that in power to the most re sponsible position in the cabinet. Cleveland will oppose the re election of Crisp as speaker , of the . House of Representatives.' This seems to be settled. If you should ask why, we would hardly be ?' able to tell you, unless it be that Crisp is not in accord with the President on the silver question. Crisp certainly made a very able speaker. If Harrison had been re-elected President the. Republicans were going to introduce a bill in Con gress allowing pensions to soldiers of the Union army for becoming bald-headed during the late war, or since the war, if produced by causes existing during their ser vice. Married men were to be ex cepted from the nrovisions of the bill. ' Secretary of State Tindall, one of the Trustees of Clemson College, say s' there has been a steady in crease in the number of applicants for admission to the College. At the last meeting there were only about 250 young men who had sent notices to the effect that they were certain of attending. Since that time enough additional replies have been received to run up to nearly 400. If there is truth in newspaper reports South Carolina may. enjoy a repetition of the merry campaign Tennessee had a few years ago when Taylor opposed Taylor with two rival candidates for governor. It would be worth while, just for the humor of it, to see a race be tween Geo. D. Tillman and B. R. Tillman.-Greenville News. A fatal objection to this brotherly campaign would be that nothing short of omniscience could tell, when the horny-headed sons er guns hollered Tillman! Tillman 1 which Tillman had the crowd; and the burden on The newspaper reporters, of proving which, would offer too great a premium to pre varication. OUR V. S. SENATORS. The United States Senate Com mittees have been announced, Senator Butler is Chairman of the Committee on Inter-State Com- , merce and the Five Civilized Tribes , of Indians. He is also a member ( of the Committees on Foreign Re lations, Naval Affairs, to Investi gate "trespassers upon Indian Lands and Additional Accommo dations for the Library of Congress. I Senator Irby is Chairman of the Committee on Transportation 1 Routes to the Seaboard, and is also 1 a member of the Committees on Post Ornees and Post .Roads, Mine, Coast Defences and C'vil Servic?. ( COTTON SEED RUBBER. They are now actually making india rubber shoes out of cotton teed oil. This is not a hoax, but m absolute verity. The factory is ocal ed near Savannah. The site )f five acres was purchased four niles from that city, a high board fence was erected around the prop erty, the factory was built in the raclosure, and has been running tor months. Nobody knows what is going on inside the factory ex ;ept a few ignorant negroes, and no one is admitted, because the secret is hot patentable. A writer in the Baltimore Manufacturers' Record writing on this subject 3ays: "The bare facts alone are known that crude cotton seed oil, costing about 50 cents a gallon, or about $125 a ton, is carted in, in five ton lots, and that tons of rubber, worth about $2,000 a tea, are cart ad out and shipped to a very prom inent rubber dealer and manufac turer in Boston. The value of the new industry to its discoverer and his associates is indicated by the figures we have just given. It is not easy to over Bstimate its value to the South and to the world. The uses of rubber are increasing every year, and the demand for the article is taxing the natural supply already. If the artificial product can success fully be employed for all or moBt of the purposes to which the natu ral produot is applied, or would be applied if its cost were cheapened, there will soon be a market for all of it that can be made in the South, and the cotton farmers will be directly and greatly benefited by the increased value of the raw oaaterial, cotton seed oil, which they must supply. It has been predicted that the ieed of the cotton plant will some day represent a larger value than the lint, and that it may yet come to pass that the crop will be plant ad mainly for the profit in the seed. It really begins to appear as if the prediction, wild as it it seemed at first, will yet be veri fied. A berry or nut-or whatever it is-that furnishes at once a wholesome table and cooking oil, the best kind of food for all cattle, a sugar fifteen times sweeter than cane su^ar, a rick fertilizer agent, and material for the making such varied articles of usefulness as Alabama strings, erasers, galoshes, gum boots, bicycle and buggy tires, hospital beds, soldiers' overcoats, iadie-*' wraps and car buffers and springs, has a future before it that it would be vain to attempt to ouk line or;to limit." COL. CUNNINGHAM DEAD. Col. John Cunningham, known in Edgefield as Col. Jack Cunning ham, died at his home in Laurens county on the 10th inst., in the seventy-fifth year of his age. He belonged to a past generation, and not many know of his active career in earlier times. He was the son of Capt. Robert Cunning ham, a prominent officer of the war of 1812, and a distinguished citizen of this State. His mother was Miss Louisa Bird, a Virginia lady. Miss Pamela Cunningham, the famous "Southern Matron," author of the movement to pur chase Mount Vernon, was his sis ter. He was a first-cousin of Wil liam L. Yancey, of Alabama, the great secession orator, and he was also gifted with the fiery eloquence for which Mr. Yancey was cele brated. He was a grand-nephew of Col. William Cunningham, of Revolutionary fame, familiarly known as "Bloody Bill," a dreaded Tory leader. Col. Cunningham all through life was an earnest and enthusiastic advocate of the duelling code. Early in life he met upon the field ot honor Judge Samuel McGowan, DOW Associate Justice of the Su preme Court of this State. Shots were exchanged and Judge Mc Gowan was slightly wounded. In 1856 Col. Cunningham became en gaged in a heated newspaper con troversy with Mr. L. M. Hatch, one af the editors of the Standard. This led to a correspondence be tween the two editors, which ter minated in a hostile meeting. The ancounter, which took place on the Washington Race Course on July 28,1856, was bloodless and after m exchange of shots an amicable idjustment of the difficulty was ?ffected. 'During the last few years of his ife Col. Cunningham developed a ?trong advocacy of spiritualism, ind, with others entertaining the lame opinions, he held weekly leances, at which it is said strange iisclosures were made.'" The Cotton Crop in Sight. NEW YORK, Narch 18.-The otal visible supply of cotton for he world is 4,072,830 bales, of rhich 3,681,600 bales are American gainst 4,72,539 and 4,050,339 espectively last year. Receipts rora plantations 38,355; receipts rom all interior towns 30.711. "rop in sight 5,890,086. CENTRAL ASIA COTTON. The following acconnt of the rapid increase in cotton production in Asia will show our farmers that they must soon perforce turn their attention to something other than the fleecy staple ; for in addi tion to over-production in America they will have to compete with an immense production- the other side of the water. ? In 1871 but 23,000,000 pounds of Turkestan cotton found its way to European Russia. In 1881 this had increased to 45,000,000 and in the year 1891 the total amount sent out was 93,000,000 pounds. While this, when compared to America's production of 2,814, 000,00o pounds yearly may see but minute, a careiul examination will show that the progress of the increase of production is so rapid that it will not be long before this Turkestan cotton will rival American products not only in the Russian markets, but also m those in Western Europe. . Another significant factor is the extremely low cost of production. It is needless to go into elaborate explanations on this head. Suffice it to state that whereas the aver age price of cotton in the United States is about 12 cents per pound, The Turkestan product may be bought at Nijal Novgorod for as low as 7 and 8 cents, and eyen less. Nor is tfie Turkestan staple any inferior in quality to that of America. Indeed, on the contrary, that couutry is very fortunate both in the climate and soil as regards the production of cotton. The climate is soft and the ideal one for the semi-tropical products. The soil is rich with salt and supersulpbate of lime. These two are quite significant items in themselves. Furthermore, the plant, which attains in this region some niuo and a half feet in height, and a thickness of stalk of two and a half inches is singularly free from the various kinds of worm, such as the cotton worm boll worms, etc., which are accredited with destroying nearly 34 per cent of the American cotton crop. While the caterpillar does appear here, it is only toward the end of the summer, and thus does more good than harm, since it eats off the top leaves of the plant, and lets in the sunlight to shine upon the lower portions of it, at the time when it needs it most, as the crop is gathered in August. There are at present sixteen mills at Andijan, and, as these have boen found inffP^l*^-^igg where near filling Che demand, 8 more are already in course of construction, and several others have been contracted for. One of these present mills is capable of cleaning 2,000 puds (about 7,000 pounds) per day. BUTLER AND EARLE. Senator Butler Contradicts Col. Earle. Colombia State. WASHINGTON, March 18-I asked Senator Butler today if it was true as alleged by Col. Earle in the Greenville News that previous to the correspondence betweee them on the 15th inst., Col. Earle asked him personally whether he would vote for his confirmation sf nomi nated, and he said he would do so. "It is not true," replied Senator Butler. I asked Mr. L. M. Fouche of Ninety-Six, who was present at the interview, whether Senator Butler made such a statment. "He did not make it during my presence," said Mr. Fouche. Mr. Fouche to-day addressed the following letter to the senator: ' Dear Sir : At your request. I will endeavor to give my under standing of an interview between Gen. Joseph H. Earle of Greenvile, S. C., and yourself, which occurred in this city on Wednes day, 15th instant. I was at your residence, and there met Gen. Earle, and heard Gen. Earle ask you if it was true, as had been stated by the News and Couier and The State that if he (Earle) was nominated for district attorney that the Senate would not confirm his appointment, and if such statement had been author ized by you. Senator Butler dis claimed having any knowledge of these statements, and suggested to Gen. Earle to not pay any at tention to newspaper squibs. Gen. Earle said he could not allow the papers to take such license; if they did, he would give them a place of his mind. He further stated that he felt a delicacy in asking Senator Butler to endorse him, and thought it useless, as he understood he had pledged him self to Gen. Yournans. Senator Butler again stated that was another mistake, and said that he had placed the same endorse ment ?ii several applications for this same office. "That the with in named applicant is qualified to fill the office asked for," or words to that effect, and that he would give th?j same endowment on his application should it be placed in his Hands. . Senator Butler then asked his authority as tojthe statement that he was pledgedit?'Gen. Youmans. Gen. Earle replied -he. could not give his authority, but that it was a rumor. . Gen. ?Earle then asked Senator Butler if he would reduce this to writing. He said he would ; ann.Gen, Earl?.asked that.-it.be done then and there. There being no paper convenient, Senator Butler suggestea that Gen. Earle address him a Bote to his office, and he would reply at once. Gen. Earle immediately left, and Senator Butler and myself went to his pommittee room. While there, Mr? Sullivan of Charleston camerj Senator Butler a in and handed note from Gen. Earle, asking if Be were nominated for United StateslDistrict Attorney by the Presidentj would he vote for his confirmation. Senator Buffer replied, by Mr. Sullivan, declining to answer the question. I read both noteB. This is as nearly(as possible, the conversation that took place in my presence. Yours, very truly, Lil RE NS M. FOUCHE. The following is the correspon dence : WASHINGTON, March 15. -Hon. M.C.Butler, U. S. Sen ator-Dear Sir : Referring to our conversation this morning, I would be glad to know' whether you would vote for " confirmation should the President nominate me for the position of United States District Attorney for South Caro ma. Very respectfully. . JOSEPH H. EARLE. Kindly send rae a reply by Mr. Sullivan. U. S. SENATE,' - WASHINGTON? March 15, Hoy. Joj^pJtH. Earle, Washington D. C.-r-Dear Sir ; In reply to your letter ,of this date; just handed me by Mr. D. A. J. Sullivan, asking me if I would vote for confirmation if the Presi dent should.nominate you for dis trict attorney for South Carolina, I beg to say it would be improper for mo to say what I will do in executive session ot tie Senate; and I must therefore decline to answer your question. Very respectfully, M: C. BUTLER Col. Karie's Side. The following isgOol. Earle's conception of what was said, as it appears in the Greenville News. Col Earle returned jiere yester day from Washington and when seen by^ a , repres . - _ I Greenville' News flatly"'' and emphatically contradicted the above statement. \. He says ho called, -on Senator Butler and asked ' if ; the senator had said he would oppose his (Earle's) confirmation' if he was nominated for district attorney The senator replied that he had made no such statement. Colonel Earle then asked if the senator would vote to confirm the nomination if made. "Assuredly," was the reply. Colonel Earle says Le then as ked if Senator Butler would put that in writing. The senator said he would. Colonel EH rle asked for"writing'materials,but there were none convenient the conversation having occ urred at Senator But ler's house. Colonel Earle says he .promised at Senator Butler's suggestion to write and send to the. senator's office a note covering the points of their conversation.. He return ed to the hotel, wrote the note, and meeting Mr. Sullivan who said he was going to Senator Butler's office, entrusted the note to him. No reply was received and his first knowlbdge that one had been sent was when he read the . above state ment in The State.

The clothes were put in this, mixed with water and then stamped upon with the feet This process was performed by old people, while boys lifted the clothes out of the tubs. The white garments, after being washed, were subjected to the vapor of sulphur, being stretched on a frame and the sul phur burned beneath.

Incorporated, 1848 Its Policies are the Most Liberal Now Offered to the Publi?. Is the only existing Company whose policies are, or can be subject to the MAINE NON-FORFEITURE LAW. WHAT IT IS. The Maine Non-Forfeiture law protects policies from forfeiture by reason, of default of payment of premiums. It provides that, after three years' premiums have been paid, failure to pay any subsequent premiums shall not forfeit a policy, but it shall continue in force for its full amount until the reserve (less a small surrender charge) upon the policy is exhausted. The reserve is a sum made up of portions of each and every pre mium paid upon a policy in anticipation of its maturity. Beginning with a small portion of the first premium, it is increased each yearby the addition of each subsequent premium, and grows larger year by. year, until, at maturity, it exactly equals the face of the policy. When apolic}T is discontinued therefore, there is in the hands of th? .Com pany a reservo, greater or less, according to the character and age of the policy. Instead of permitting the Company, upon non-payment of premium, to confiscate this reserve, the Maine Non-Forfeiture Law requires the Company to continue the policy in .force until the policy holder receives an equivalent for it in extended insurance. Ho w IT WORKS. If a person, aged 35, pays three years' premiums upon a twenty payment Life policy and then discontinues payment, the policy wil be continued 4 years and 257 days longer; if he pays five premiums, and then discontinues, the insurance will continue 7 years and 357 days longer. If the policy is a twenty year endowment, same age, three years' payments will give an extension of 8 years and 150 days j five years' payment 13 years, 300 days. If the policy is a 15 Year Endowment, ($1,000) same age, three years' payments will secure insurance to the* end of the endowment period and $13.68 in cash if insured lives till that time, and in like manner ten years' payments secures insurance for the full 15 years and $592.17 in cash. . ? These extensions vary with the age of the insured, i he class of policy, and the number of nayments m&de ^ thpy^rp efti?ll *"* pol&yrin-yeareva?'d&y^^?r each humltf?r, ;?i:"payments, so that the - policy-holder knows ata glance exactly what he, is entitled to if he discontinues his payments at any time. What it Has Done. The Company Has Paid over Two Hundred Death Claims, in con sequence of this law,'aggregating in sum3 insured more than Four Hundred Thousand Dollars. In every case there had been a default in the payment of pre mium, and, except for this law, the policies would have been of little or no value. Instead of this, the insurance in each case was extended to the time of death, and the Company was required to pay to the beneficiaries under the policies the sum of $418,335.77. T&e Tie o? Hie Lav Mensis as Guiared WITH F^LIDD-TJF ^LZLVCTES. It is the custom of many companies to provide in their policies that, upon discontinuance of payment of Premium, paid-up policies will be given, without the option of extension. This was the practice jf the Union Mutual before the Maine Non-Forfeiture Law was en acted, but it now substitutes for paid-up values the more advantage Dus plan of extended insurance. The objection to the paid-up system is that the amount of paid-up insurance which is given upon the dis sontiuuance of payments upou a policy, unless it has been in force a great many years, is insignificant, and of little or no value as protec tion ; and it leaves the insured who ceases payment without adequate insurance at the very time he needs it the most. The great advantage of the extended insurance afforded by the Maine Law over the most liberal paid-up system is strikingly shown by the following comparison, and it will be observed that the paid-up v&lue is insignificant in comparison with the amount actually paid by the Union Mutual. The result of two hundred and twelve policies ,vas this : [f the insured had received paid-up policies instead of ex tended insurance, the Company would have had to pay in settlement of the claims only. $98,197.50 . Whereas, in fact, it did pay under the Maine Law, $418,344.77 Making a difference in favor of the beneficiaries under Two Hundred and Twelve pol iciei of $320,147.28 The policies are free from all restrictions, and incontestible after ONE YEAR. A grace of one month is given in the payment of premiums. For further information call on, or address, B. B. EVANS, Manager for South Carolina, Office, No. 1, Advertiser Building, BDGEFIELiD, - S. O.
