It is stated that the organi zation is 'ompOHed of the lower class of people and that it is (living business men and good citizen ot that city no little worry, and well it might. For some cause or other the question of Socialism has been bobbing up quite cxten sivcly all over thisSrafeof late, km well as SoTli "Caroli na. Sn h things will happen. Probably one cause fortius is thfaet that Eugene Debits, Jones an I seveial Socialists have been tourirtg the coua try 01 late spouting t. h r i r creed, an I it is no won Jet- that the matter is talked for a while. There ntvr whs a circus came to town but what all the little piccaninnies were busy mocking the tricKe of 1 he trickster for some t.i m after the performance. The interest soon diesout.just as this Socialistic gush. will Socialism is no new thing. At different times in our his lory we have been troubled by enthusiasts who taught that the world- would tie wrecked and the firmaments side tracked from 1 heir course unless even hod v ''lined" the Socialist at once As in the case of the circus. however, the emotion subsi ded, ana the world continued to move on peacefully, a 11 d the grass never failed tognw in the spring time It is stated that this or ganization at Greenville has as its main principle the gov eminent ownership of lamls, mines, factories in fact, ev ery thing. .

The telegrams from Manila contain this information: 'It is now estimated that fully 900 person were killed or wounded in the fiht be tween American and Morns for possession of Mount Da- jo, near Jolo, capital of the Sulu Islands. The fight con tinued vigorously for four ays. "An unofficial report says hat the families of Moros re tnnined in the viltage located in the center of the crater of the mountain and the wo men and chilren minglil with ihe warriors during the bat tle to each an extent that it was impossible to discrimi nate, and nil were killed in the fierce onslaught. "The Moro constabulary. commanded by Col. Scott, is eenving much praise.

And na twes (the Moro constahula ty) who were traitors to their native land put in the forefront of th. battle waged against the patriots of their own race, This is th latest of the mortilying fruits of imperial ism impel ialism, a -doctrine so abhorrent to the worthy descendants of the patriot. who made good American freedom from for'fcndominu t ion.

C'urlotte Observer. Few people, . perhaps, at tach any importance to th mailer id seed didttlhution by the yoyi rnriu nt, and yet it is a big thing, and the pr position to abolish or at least curtail the amount of seed furnished free through the Senators and Represent a tiveshas brought out some figures that are "somewhat surprising. We ha ye receive! from a concern interested in the abolition of the syetem a letter on the subject in which it is recited t hat the appro priation last year was !J90, 000. resulting in the distri bution of over 50,000,000 packages of seeds. The seed merchant complains that "the g vernment has no bus iness furnishing free seeds, and the evils arising f r o m the practice are H.di-evident to any one who gives the matter uny ihoughUuid at tention. It is estimated that if the Department of, Agruml ture were required to pay postage on the seeds it sends out, at. the same rates as other people, th revenue to the PoKtufflce Department would be increased at least $300,000, nnd the incidental expenses of labor, printing, etc , in handling the seed bus iness really make the c o s ti considering the the postage as above enacted, at. over three quarters of a million dollars. The enormous quart titiVsuf seeds sent through the mail by this free distribu tion are also very largely re sponsible br thedeficit in the r ,.)stolfice department, We are satisfied that this deuVit would be wiped out entirely if the distribution ol free seeds were abolished.". flic original idea regard ing the distribution of seed by the government was that only new and improved van ities weie to be sent out and these to reliable planters in order to get the variety star ted in case it proved desira ble. Lik most things of this kind, it spread to such an ex tent that the seedsman ami others are demanding that it stop. Somet'ffort wus made a few years ngo to curtail the nl'ot merit of seed to each member ofCongress, with the tesnlt. that in some cases members purchased af. their own expi nsa the seed necessa ty to make up the deficiency. Asa matter offact.it doesn t seem, tnat tne governmeur husan.N more reason to fur tiich free seed to the farmer than to distribute young trees to the friiit-gn wer or eggs 'to poultry raiser, bur the system has gone so far it will be hard to stop it. Always Keep Chambei Iain's Cough Remedy in His House. ''e would not be without Cham berlain s Cough Remedy. It is kept on hand continually in our home. says VV. W. Kearney, editor of the Independent, Lowrv City, Mo That is just what every family (.hoidd do. When kept at hand rea dy for instant use, a cold may be checked at the outset and cured in muchlen time than after it haa be. come settled in the system. This lemedy is also without a peer for croup in children, and will prevent the attack when given m soon as the child becomes hoarse, or even af tcr the croupy cough appeirs,' which ran nidi h rfrno when the remedy is Kept at hand.
