It will hardly be practical for us-all .to keep close up .with the investigating committee that is now unearthing one of the rot tenest chapters in the history of cur State. It is hardly credible that a.set of men wishing to hold themselves, in power would be so reckless as is shown -thus far by the cofcmittee. Mr. J. L. Ram c say, who has been conspicuous for his criticisms of men, so far his superiors as to excite his envy, is shown to be hand in glove- with the grabbers that piled up the enormous debt on the State. It was this man that m the" Progressive farmer had the common, . well meaning, plane people of the land believ ing that Democratic officials were corrupt, wasteful and even dis honest. You heard no criticisms from Ramsay when his fusion Agricultural Board was making it cost the State $10,000 more than formerly to inspect ferti lizers amounting to about $2,000 more of revenue. The investigation shows that after the election, too, there was an increase of the recklessness and such shameful raids on the public treasury as should be ac tionable before the law and Tanked along with purgery and larceny. If the great faults found with the long and smooth administra tration of State affairs by the Democrats was inspired by a de sire for opportunities of public : pilfer, such as was practiced in the short fusion reign then let those who will keep up this vein. : While the two records are be fore the people the Democratic party can well enough afford to be maligned by their opponents. TOR ABOUT THE ROUND BALE. Messrs Morris & Moren, of Keo,. Ark., writing to the Manu facturer's Record place a hign estimate on the round bale ; pro cess for cotton. They say : :: "We can unquestionably say that the press is a success in every particular, not only from a ginner's standpoint, but as to practical farmers. The results from sale of our cotton have been eminently satisfactory and much beyond what we had an ticipated. The advantages to planter and operator are so many that it would take up too much space to enumerate them. It is sufficient to say that no one who has baled their cotton on this press would now or hereafter patronize any other. And why should they ? Their ginning charges are less than the square press people charge, and they receive from one-quarter to one half cent per pound more than they could get in.the square bale. There is no question t about the round bale being hete to stay, and we would advise the ginmen, especially those who are near a railroad, to get in the swim at once and exemplify the od adage of the early bird getting the worm. They will not only bene fit themselves, but their friends, the farmers, will get the cream that the middlemen, ' the com mission merchants, have tbeen enjoying and getting rich upon. In conclusion to condense the advantages, will say that the bale is fireproof, waterproof, dustproof , and proof that it is a labor-saving and money -making bale to the farmers. " Now the question arises, are they writing in the interests of the farmer or the round bale monopoly r Either might . be true. We can but . watch and wait. J" We do not doubt the value of the process. But we want to see the benefit properly shared. THE PRESIDENT'S BAD ACTS. We are glad to do President McKinley the homage due from a loyal citizen to the head of this great nation, but his persistent forcing upon the Southern peo ple negro postmasters when his better senses must tell him that the consequences can only be luriner race iriction it seems is beyond defense or apology. It was unwise for him to ap point Baker at Lake City, S. C. It was barbarous for a few to re sent it as they did. It is unbe coming the head of a great n ition of intelligent people for him to punish innocent and guilty to gether by withholding from the citizens their rights to postoffice advantages. But now that he has reappointed a negro post master at Florence which(is near Lake City does not justify the respect those were glad to be stow upon him who were able to rise above party. We can have only condemnation for such acts. When Mr. Cleveland was prominent before the world a few years ago we had men of mirky politics to assert that he was worth some $6,000,000 and we were expected to tell how he came by it hotiestly or admit that he was a great corruptionist. It turned out as we thought, that his finances covered but the smaller portion of one million. Now we are seeing it tliat Mr. Bryan has gotten rich since he has gone into politics. The way to explain how Mr. J3ryan got wealthy is the same, we think, as that in , which a little girl said to her playmate, "Your mother and my mother are sis ters but you and I are no akin. " That little girl simply lied like they who assert the great wealth of these incorruptible men. - Little Wonder. Miss Joetta Nixon, daughter of Mr. James Nixon was taken to the insane asylum at Morgan ton Wednesday. It is a sad, sad case. At the last term of our superior court she was the prose cuting witness in a case against a prominent young man of New tbn, who was charged with ruin ing her under promise of mar riage. The case was compro mised. Constantly brooding over her spoiled life, the poor girl's mind became a wreck. Hickory Press. - If troubled with rheumatism, give Ghamberlaip'a Pain-Balm a trial.

Disasters weigh heavy on most' of us, but minstrels tnnve on breakdowns. We should do by our cunning as wre do by our courage always have it ready to defend our selves, never to offend others. Greville. Five Committed for Counterfeiting. The counterfeiting: eraner at Charlotte seem to have a bad case acrainst them. Five are in jail. One for lack of $250 bond, the others for wrant of $2,000. One Mrs. Ozment is an old hand at the bellows and says she has operated in twenty-two States. SPAIN'S GREATEST NEED. Mr. K. P. Olivia, of. Barcelona, Spain, spends his winters at Aiken, S. C. Weak nerves had caused severe pains in the back of his head. On using Electric Bitters, America's greatest blood and nerve remedy, all eoon left him. He says this grand medicine is what his country needs.
