In our advertising columns this week will
be found our announcement for the new vol
ume of the ENQUIRER, commencing with the
1st of January next.
The hearty support and encouragement
with which we have met in the psst impels
us to renewed exertions; and as will be seen,
in addition to the original stories of superior
merit which we have secured, and other lit
erary attractions which we shall present, we
also offer an elegant premium to every yearly
subscriber who pays $500 in advance. This
premium consists of fine chrome after cel-
ebrated German painting Of which it is per.
feet fac simile, and sells in the art stores for
$500; but by special arrangement with the
publishers, we are enabled to make this un.
precedented offer, which we feel sure will be
as gratifying to all our subscribers who love
the beautiful in art, as it is pleasurable to us
in making them so handsome present. The
picture will be promptly delivered to subscri-
bers as rapidly as possible after the names
are received. Single subscribers and others
not having an opportunity to join club may
remit direct to this Office. Those desiring to
form clubs may commence at once, if they so
choose, and any three-dollar subscription,
paid in advance, whether commencing in this
year or with the first of next, will be entitled

THE ELECTION.

The election in this county last week for
member Of Congress, and State and county
officers passed off without any breach Of the
peace or undue excitement. So far as excite
ment was concerned, the whole thing was
tame affair. The aggregate vote is 534 less
than that cast in the election of 1870, the total
vote at that time footing up 1906. This can
be accounted for from the absence of excite
ment and the indifference of many voters and
by the additional fact that quite number Of
both races have left the county since the last
election. Compared with the election returns
of 1870, there is a falling of in the white vote
of 1863 and in the colored vote of 191. One Of
the remarkable things about the vote at the
Yorkville precinct, is the fact that there is
only difference of one vote between the white
and colored races. Herewith we append the
official result of the election in tabular form 4,
from which the reader may deduce whatever
facts his ingenuity or Imagination may sug-
gest. The white candidates in the table are
indicated by Roman letters-the colored by
itaIic.

1t will be observed that Col. John B. Pal
mer, of this city, has been elected to succeed
Col. VIM. Johnston as President of the Char
lotte, Columbia, and Augusta Railroad. This
we regard as an excellent selection. COL
Palmer is fully identified with the business in
terests of this State AS the manager of the
Saluda Factory, and the Vice President of
the Citizens Savings Bank, and as the Presi-
dent of the Central National Bank, he has
evinced that energy, TACT and ability which
establish his claims to the character of high
toned and successful man Of business. We
feel sure that he will prove thorough, faith
full and sagacious officer. His character, his
training, and his attainments all qualify him
for the post of President of the road. Wean-
ticipate for him an honorable and successful
career in his new role
