THE ELECTION,

We have delayed the publication of
The SENTINEL in order to give orr
readers the latest news of the cleo
tion, and we were in hopes that we
might be able to give something de-
finite. But such is not the case, and
at the time we go to press, Thurs
day morning, everything is in doubt.
Wednesday morning after the cleo
ton the ATLANTA Constitution claimed
that New York, New Jersey, Connec-
tieut, Indiana and Wisconsin had
gone Democratic, and that Cleveland
and Hendricks had been tri,unphant
ly elected. The news in. Grcenville
up to late hour Wednesday after
noon, seemed to confirm all the Con-
stitution had claimed, and every man
we met except the Republican office
holders seemed to he happy and
shook hands more heartily than usu
al; Il But when we arrived at Easlcv,
from Crcenville, telegram had been
received there by Mr.. A. w. Hudg-
ems from Mr.. Howell, of the Consti-
tuition, to the effect that the Republi-
cans were claiming Now York.
The operator ut Charlotte, North
Carolina, said to Mr.. GignilGat, the
operator at Easley, i'll response to an
inquiry for information about New
York, that he had later news than
MIR. Howells dispatch, and that New
York was certainly Democratic Latter,
the operator at Greenvillc said "Ncw
York is in doubt" and then the ope-
rator at Spartanburg seemed to think
the Democratic party hid b,rsted
This, i'll substance, is all we can give

Now that the election, is over and we
have a respite from politics in the State
for two years and in National politics for
four years, .Iet;us bend our energies to
the development Of our mineral and ag,

State has been moro abundantly blessed
by Kind Providence than Pickens.
We have a rich soii, pure water and o
bracing atmosphere. Win another rail
