THE PRIMARY ELECTION.

TIC Tuie5 iur governing the Primary Elec-
ton in this County are published on the
fourth page Of this paper, and persons who
have not already familiarized themselves
with them would do we'll to read them
over. Where the managers of these elec-
tions have not been appointed, the Execu-
tive Committee of each club should at once
appoint them and arrange for the election.
The Executive Committee Of each club must
also be in session at the place of the election
to receive and act upon applications for
membership on that day. We hope every
Democrat in the County will 60 out and
vote on that day, so that the result of the
election, whatever 1t may be, will represent
the wishes of the largest number of all the
Democrats in the County. The election
comes off on Friday the 18th day of October,
at the usual place of meeting OF each club,
unless otherwise ordered. Tho polls open
at o'clock a. m, and continue open until
4 o'clock p. m, giving eight hours for the
balloting. After the election is over, the
managers must proceed Immediately to
count out the votes, keeping the poll list
and the ballots together with the result,
and return the same to the County Execu-
tive Committee, at Anderson Court House,
by IL o'clock Q. Ia. on .f:o following day,
Saturday the 10Th inst. We have made
these comments in order to attract the at
tention of all our readers to the mode of
conducting the coming Primary Election,
and we hopo there will be no misunder-
standing about it on the part of any person.

stand where stood in 1876, when, in de-
clining q nomination for the Legislature, I
advocated in your issue of the Srd of Au-
gust straight-out nomination for oil the
State and County offices as the only means
Of preventing the banner of State rights and
reform, under which we would do battlo
from being trailed through the mire Of Rad
ical corruption. In conclusion, I will say
that l have always endeayored to discharge
my official duties faithfully and impartialiy
and I appeal to the voters at the primary
election TO prove by their votes whether
they think have done SO or not.
Yours truly,

The Children's Missionary Society of
Anderson, of which Miss Pearl Cochran is
President, will have an entertainment in
Masonic Hall on next Friday night for the
benefit of the yellow fever sufferers. Thcy
will have an elegant hot tsupper-with cakes,
ice cream and other Gelicacies in addition.
The price of admission will be ten cents, or
9 ticket for supper and admission also for
fifty cents. The evening will be wound up
with Mother Goose Party" This enter
tainment should be largely attended and
literally patronized for two reasons. First
of all, because 1t is gotten up by little girls,
who should be encouraged in their lauda-
BILE desire to alleviate the sufferings of
others; and second, because the particular
object of this supper deserves contribution.
The suffering and want in the smitten cities
has increased, and literal starvation in add-
ton to the plague is upon them. We hope
the entertainment Of next Friday night will
be great success, and that all Of the ladies
and gentlemen of the town who can do so
will patronize it.
