T'he legislature will be memor ialized to repeal the lien law and it will also be urged to create legislation which will put "deal jlZs in cotton futures" out of business. With regard to the repeal of the lien law, there is such a diversity of opinion that we are vet to see where any good will be accomplished by its repeal, unless the legislature can also make mortgages on growing crops invalid. In our opinion, as long as a man can give a mortgage of his crop after it has made its appearance on the soil, and this we are told the leg islature cannot prohibit, we do not see what good it will do to make invalid a mortgage given before the crop is planted. We can see how it might work a hardship upon the tenant class to secure supplies before the crop is planted, by making it difficult for a large portion of that class to secure the neces saries of life, and hampering this class by making it difficult to secure advances, will it not have a tendency to drive them from the farms and into the cot ton mils, saw -mills, and turpen tine fields? Those clamoring for the repeal of the 1ien law have an idea it will improve our labor condi tion&; we zre afraid it will not have this :ffect, but on the con trary, if those who cannot obtain credit on open account, and have no real or personal property to give as collateral, finding them selves without.the means to con tinne farming on their own ac count, will give up the farms and seek other means of liveli hood. Should this be the result of repealing the lien law it will moake.our land owners land-bur dened; their lands will not be rented, and eventually they will .fall off in value.- It is a recog nized business principle that property values must be based upon an earning capacity, it is so in all kinds of enterprises, a lumber plant that is earning nothing, is valueless, a store or a bank that does not put some thing on its profit page is a dead institution, and just so is it with a farm. If the landowners' lands are deserted, there is no income and its value is destroyed. We think this matter of repealing a law which affords a means to aid people in conducting their busi ness should be very carefully considered before final action is taken. It is a popular thing for politicians to advocate the repeal of the lien law, and that is perhaps why we hear such a demand for it, but pandering to public sentiment mnanufactured for the unthinking and accepted by them, is not soundistatesman ship. There are other things more detrimental to our farming in terests than the lien law, -but these are not mentioned because they might effect those who practice them, and operate poli tically against the one who calls attention to them. We refer to the present system of labor con tract abuse, the system of entic -ing tenants from one plantation to another, the cloaking of dis honesty on the part of the ras cally inclined, and many other practices which is doing untold harm to the country generally, and making honest men suffer. In this article we throw out what comes to our mind with re gard to the demands upon the general assembly, but we are free to say, should a bill be pre sented in the legislature repeal ing the lien law, and we are shown that its effect will not be disappointing and injurious in the end, we will support it, but we must be convinced first, otherwise we will not have our self recorded as acceding to a demand because it is popular. The government has been called upon to issue a fraud order against the New York cotton ex change, and if the effort suc ceeds the exchange will be ex cluded from the mails just the same as any other concern that uses the mails to defraud the public. Mr. Ulyses B. Hammet. the present chief of the dispensary force, has tendered his resigna tion, in order that Governor Ansel may be free to appoint a new head of that department, and since this resignation was made. Mr. Hammet has been tendered the position of Deputy United States Revenue Collector, by Major Micah Jenkins, with headquarters in Sumter. Mr. Hammet is a former Clarendon man, and lhe has a number of relatives living in the county. He made an efficient officer while in charge of the dis pensary, and this no doubt can be attributed to the offer in the reserve ervie, which pays a Because of being refused the loan of five thousand dollars at a bank in Philadelphia last Satur day, the seeker of wealth gave a "blow-out" by hurling a dyna mite bomb into the bank, kiliing himself, the cashier and wound ing several others, besides al most wrecking the interior of the institution. Perhaps when the bomb-thrower and bank offi cials meet in the next world they can compromise their differences. The sub-treasury proposed for the South is bringing about much rivalry among the delega tions, and our South Carolina representatives are awake to the importance of the project. We should be pleased to see it estab lished in Charleston, for that city has without doubt the larg est banking interests, but if Charleston cannot get it. we hope the delegation will not get divided and all work to have it brought into the State without regard to the location. Since the above was written, Birmingham, Ala., has secured the sub-treasury. There will be a bill iutroduced in the coming session of the legislature requiring the ap pointment of a board composed of experienced telegraph opera tors, to examine applicants for positions in railroad telegraph offices. The purpose of this bill is to promote the safety of the travelling public on railroad trains in this State. We have scanned this bill, and in our opinion, there should be some thing of the kind required. The many accidents on the railroad is due, we believe, to incompe tent service on the part of those who are employed to dispatch trains. Nearly every day .there are collisions resulting in loss of life, and it does seem to us that the law should require more pro tection for those who travel, and also for delays in freight. The lack of interest manifest ed by the farmers in the cotton growers' association is to be de plored. The undertaking was a huge one, the largest and great est ever attempted for the peo ple of the South, and notwith standing the opposition from all sides including the government, it has accomplished a wonderful amount of good to the cotton growing States. We do not think it can successfully be controverted. that the associa tion brought to the Southern States millions of dollars that would not have come here, and because it has not made every individual farmer rich in one season interest has cooled. The fight must he kept up, the man ufacturing world realizes that cotton is marketed for less than its value, and if the growers of the staple will stand by the asso ciation time will prove every thing claimed by those who are faithfully clinging. The State convention heard from President Smith ar- address that every farmer, banker and merchant should read, it is a message of hope, an inspiration to press for ward. He speaks as one who knows, and not one who theo rises. $100 Reward, $100.

A trip through the country to day showed us a good deal of plowing has been done. To be able to say that you have begun to plow usually goes a long way in getting a lien started. By the way, if the liens of one sort are not as plentiful as usual, there will be an unusual number of leans of another kind later on. Rev. T. P.

No one can be happy, light-hearted and healthy with a body full of blood cannot do its duty to every part be. cause of its impurity; therefore, the first and most important work in hand is to purify the blood so that every organ will get the full benefit of a healthy circulation.

Each pill contains one grain of the solid ex tract of sarsaparilla blended with two rains of a combination of pure and ild vegetable products, making it a blood purifier unexclled in character. One or two taken every night for- a while will produce surprising results. Brandreth's Pills have been in use for over a century and are sold in ever y drug and medicine store, either plain or sugar-coated. Pinewood News.

Such dcstruction invites devastating floods in mountain streams and causes the surrounding land to dry up. Forests act like vast m. densing screens. They preserve a Ioist atmosphere about them, atten nate the force of torrential downfalls, promote a more gradual melting of the snow in early spring and protect the soil igainst too rapid evaporation. Anil yOIL thec t-ainner in which forests act ti i beeticent part is not exactly such a might be supposed. They pre vent a large part of the rain that falls frklm reaching the soil at all. It is es tinm ii that in European climates the forests evaporate directly or transpire physiologically four-fifths of the rain that falls upon them. Thus the forest atmosphere is no less important than the forest soil in equalizing the cli matic conditions of a country.-Youth's Companion. Tale of a Coat. The clawhammer, or evening coat, has many oddities of cut. These oddi ties were once essentials. There was, In fact, a time when every idiosyn crasy of the clawhammer served some useful purpose. The cutaw.y front of the coat, for instance, was originally cut away so that the wearer when on horseback would not be incommoded. The two buttons at the back were for fastening up the tails out of harm's way, each tail having in the past a bittonhole at its end. The sleeves, with their false cuffs, are relics of the days when sleeves were always turned back and therefore were always made with cuffs that unbuttoned. The col lar, with Its wide notches, is a sur vival of the old collar that was notch ed in order that Its wearer could turn it up conveniently in cold or stormy weather. The dress coat, in a word, is a patchwork of relics-relies once es sential, but now of no use on earth. Philadelphia Bulletin. Webster's Fine Talk to a Fish. I had a chat once with old John At taquin, then a patriarch among the few survivors of the Mashpee Indians. He had often been Mr. Webster's guide and companion on his fishing trips and remembered clearly many of their happenings. It was with a glow of love and admiration amounting to worship that he related how this great fisherman, after landing a large trout on the bank of the stream, "talked mighty strong and fine to that fish and told him what a mistake he had made and what a fool he was to take that fly and that he would have been all right if he had left it alone." Who can doubt that patient search would disclose somewhere In Mr. Web sters speeches and writings the elabo ration, with high intent, of that "mighty strong and fine" talk address ed to the fish at Mashpee?.-a"Fishing and Shooting Sketches," by Grover Cleveland.
