Admiral Dewey has been award

South Carolina leads all the
Southern States in the manufac
ture of cottcn? according to the
Manufacturers Record, haviug
1,757,036 spindles. North Caro

Greenville comes next, wit h six.
Mr. McDonald Furmao, writing
to The State, from Privateer,
Sumter county, says: "Frank
Gary should j be nominated for
governor, Jim Tillman for
lieutenant governor, and things
would be exactly reversed to what
they were ten years ago-r-then it
was Tillman and Gary ; now it
would beGarland Tillman.
Au agt of considerable interest
passed by the legislature which
will affect most towns has attract
ed little attention* The title of
the bill is "An act to make it un
lawful for any mnnicipal officer to
take a contract for work for the
municipal corporation of which he
is an officer, and to provide a pen
alty for violation of this act." The
. bill w?.3 introduced by Mr. Dukes,
of Orangeburg, in the House, and
it went through both houses with
out question.
Lem J. Williams, of Edgefield,
has been electe.d Chairman of the
Board of Directors of the Dispen
sary by tbe legislature. And this
is well. Mri. Williams has shown
by his official conduct in the past
that he is a man of integrity and
honesty. No charges affecting
his character have ever been hint
^,&t, and this is greatly to his
credit, when one remembers the
disgraceful equables in" the State
Boardof Control and the unsavory
charges made against the most of
the members. It is a recognition
of Mr. Williams's ability and
character that he was elected chair
man of the new Board.-Sumter
Herald.
The Denmark Times reports a
movement in that town to organize
a cotton mill, and adds : "It is said
that the su m of $100,000 is already
in sight. It is Also said that an
option has been given on 50 acres
of land in the western part of tbe
town as the sitb of the mill " A
hundred thousand dollar mill has
just been organized at Kershaw,
in Lancaster County. The business
men of Barnwell are also working
fora mill at that place. A dis
patch from Columbia reports:
"There is talk of organizing an
other cotton mill here. Prominent
business men are at work on the
project." Three of these are brand
new projects, not reported, in any
of the recent reviews of cotton
mill building in this State. The
prospect is fair that South Carolina
will manufacture all the cotton it
grows before the next decade is
nearly ended.
Mr D. A. Tompkins, of Charlotte,
delivered au address in Atlanta
last week in which he made eome
interesting statements regarding
possiblities of cotton manufacture
In showing the difference in value
between thy raw material and thc
finished product,.he said that North
Carolina produced, about 500,000
bales of cotton. This cotton, at
8 cents a-pound, would be worth
$4,000,000, but if manufactured
into fine goods would, bring into
the State $50,000,000. or more than
twelve times as much as the raw
material wonIdihring. He stated
further that if these 500,000 balee
were manufactured into mull, an
article produced by the skilled
artizans of France, it would be
worth ^00,000,000. And if it wat.
made into nainsook it -would bring
$1,500,000,000. There was more
to the same effect, but the figur?e
given suffice lo prove that South
Carolina can well afford to support
a school which teaches and trains
ts people to maae something more
profitable than "plain" goode.

The Trip to Cuba.
Yesterday evening the special
committee of the South Carolina
Press association charged with the
arrangements for the press associa
tion's trip to Cuba hell a meeting
at tbe offico of President Aull.
?s a result it was determined to
take the trip, starting out from
Columt ia at 1:25 a. m. on March
18. It was also determined that
all who intend taking the trip
must notify President Aull by
March 8, so as to give him time to
arrange for the transportation.
I etc.
Mr. Aull was instructed to
prepare a statement to be given
the press today setting ' forth all
the preliminary arrangements and
giving the members all ?he infor
mation at the committee's disposal
in regard to the trip. The indica
tions are that quite a number wil?
take the trp and among the cumber
will be Gov. McSweeney, who is a
devoted member of the organiza
tion.-The State, Feb. 27th.
"It is a glowing, shining fact
moreover that Mc Lau rm is one of> |
the most useful men in "congress,
to the McKinley administration.
Ae is a Republican for all the
important purposes of Mr. Hanna.
But he is a Jeffersonian, Jack
ooaian Democrat, of course. If j
he were not he would be utterly
cast out, so far as his State is con
cerned. He retains popularity in
South Carolina. He has only to j
call himself a Democrat and hie!
foibles are winked at by his con
stituents. We all know his true
ctiaracter, but so long as he only
votes with the Republicans and
calls himself a Democrat, he ie
perfectly agreeable to South Caro
lina. He could not be more of a
McKinley lieutenant, in fact, than
ne is and has been ; but let him
dare to cali himself a Republican
ia candor and common honesty
(andinhi8 heart we suspect he!
would like so to do,) and what
this proud old State would do to
him would be a plenty. A fellow [
of infinite variety is Mr. McLaurin
and very smooth."-Laurens)

Disposition of tho Dispensary
Profits.
It ia pretty generally known that
the ''profit feature" nf the dis
pensary law has be? n modified
and the profits accruing to the State
dispensary have been cut down to
1 10 per cent. The net projits from
the State dispensary, aggregating
about $194,000 a year, were devoted
to the common schools
lof the State, "and th?6
revenue will by the new law
I be materially lessened.
There were two counties in the
State which appreciated the proba
ble effect of this change, and they
had the "supply bill," or the
'measure which fixes the levy for
assessment in the several counties,
so amended that in such counties
net profits from the local dis
pensaries are to be divided between
the common schools and the fund
for ordinary county expenses.
These counties are Laurens and
Colleton. The provision for the
latter county is that the apportion
ment amung the schools shall be
made upon the attendance for the
scholastic year ending June 30tb,
1900.
In the same bill it is provided
I that in Chesterfield county the
profits are to go to the past in
debtedness of the county, and any
?surplus into the general county
fund.
In Eugefield one-half goes to
past indebtedness and one-half to
[ordinary county purposes.
In Marion couuty $1,500 is to
past indebtedness if so much be
necessary.
In Orangeburg any Burplun
from dispensary profus or any
other income, after meeting
county's expenses, is to go into a
sinking fund to put the county on
a cash basis.
Before the new dispensary law
was passed, Bamberg and
Dorchester had already decided to
devote the profita to the general
j county fund.-The State.
Cancer Cared rby| Using; X-Ray.
San Francisco, Cal, February
18-After buffering from cancer
of the face for years Dr J. M.
Selfridge, founder of Fabiola
at Oakland, has been almost com
pletely cured by the X-ray. Last
Ootober Dr Selfridge began ex
perimenting with the X-ray iu
connec ion with has son, Dr C. M.
Selfridge, and Dr N. H. Cham
berlain. So successful has teen
the trial that numbers of other
sufferers have taken the same re
medy and have met with like
astonishing relief.
The doctor was led to begin ex
periments by noting the powerful
irritating effect of X-rays on a
healthy skin. He conceived the
idea that the X-ray might dry
up and heal the cancer tissue. So
he made a face mask of a
thin sheet of lead and allowed
only a small aperture over the
cancer. He was placed on an
operating table and his face covered
with the mask, the cancer wound
only being exposed to the action
j of the rays. The experiment was
begun last October. Beneficial,
results were noted at once and the
cancer began to dry up. Now it is
entirely healed, only a scar remain
iug.
Doctors at Fabiola are trying
the cure on other cases and art
getting encouraging results.

Progress of Militarism. .
* . *.
. Washington, February 19.-r,
Secretary Root has turned over to
Gen Ludlow his plan to secure the,
creation of a reserve list of per
sons .in civil life who are fully
equipped for instant . military
service. His purpose is to have
the military schools and colleges
of the cour-try brought into close
touch with the regular army. The
work of officers detailed as in
structors in these institutions is to
be watched and a progrese roll of
the pupils under their instructions
ia to be kept.
After the boys go out into civil
life it is intended that they shall
be kept track of ; if they go into
theNatioDal Guard they will be
given opportuuities for special
courses of military study and
thrown as much as possible into
military atmosphere and the re
sult of all this io expected to be
that, in time of war or emergency
necessitating the sudden increase
if the army, there will be a long
roll of available men for appoint
ment.

All the blood In your body passes through
your kidneys once every three minutes.
The kidneys are your
blood purifiers, they fil

If they ar? sick or out

their work.
Pains, aches and rheu

cess of uric add In the
blood, due to neglected
kidney trouble.
Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady
heart beats, and makes one feel ts though
they had heart trouble, because the heart is
over-working (n pumping thick, kidney
poisoned blood through veins and arteries.
It used to be considered that only urinary
troubles were to be traced to the kidneys,
but now modern science proves that nearly
all constitutional diseases have their begin

If you are sick you can make no mistake
by first doctoring your kidneys. The mild

TJtte experiments of modern phy
sicians and ecientists have
established the fact that many of
the germs of disease enter the body
by the inhalation of air laden with
bacteria or microbes. These germs
are very small but their work is
deadly. Still many of them are
comparatively harmless in health ;
but aa soon as an organ is diseased
it is attacked. The experimets
of Koch and others have shed much
light upon this important subject
But up to the present time the
culture of bacteria appears to have
met with much better success than
theil* destruction. As we oan do
so little to destroy these minuto
enemies, is not the most sensible
course to strengthen and revitalize
the system so that it may repel
and resift their destructive in
fluence, and does it not seem v?ry
fitting that the revitalizing element
should enter the body through
-.nbalation of oxgen which is at
once a revitalizer and germicide?
The experience of years aud the
testimony pf thouRauds show
Compound Oxygeu to be the agent
