Sir. DAVID Lee, of Salem, wss in
town last Monday, and says that the
voting in Salem last week was un-
Usually small. He attributes this fact
20 the dissatisfaction which a good
rnany people in that section felt over
the management and result of the re-
cent primaries. He claims, as noted
In the TINES two months ago, that
fraud was pracsiced, and he says he
is going to show it up. If fraud was
practiced it should be shown up.
Our politics, and above Ill OUR prinaa-
ry elections, should be free, fair, and

We published an account last week
of an unfortunate difficulty in Sumter
between Col. Earle and AIr. II. r.
Thomas. Mr.. Thomas is out in the
papers, in long card, denouncing
Col Earle's conduct in exceedingly Sc
we're terms. Mr.. Thomass version OF
the difficulty is largely different from
that we published (Which was copied
from the Columbia ReglSter(, and if
true places Col Earle in an exceeding
" uncomfortable position. But know
ing Col. Earle, personally and by rep
utation, we think there must be some
mistake in Mr.. Thomas's statement.
We cannot believe that Col. Earle
would assault (as Mr.. Thomas says) a
man with billet OF wood, while that
man had his back turned to him.
Sumter is competing with the whole
of Edgeield county.

WEDNESDAY,, November ID, 1883.

There is no longer any doubt that
the Democrats have been beaten, and
badly beaten. Not only have the Re-
pubicans by a very large majority
elected q president, but they have
both houses of congress- and we will
for the next two years at least be en-
tirely in their hands We hope and
believe, however, that Harrison will
rise above the petty meanness Of some
of his predecessors, and make a presi-
dent of and for the whole people.

An angler states as his experience that
1t is of little use TO troll for muskallonge
during raw north or east wind. but
when gentle south or southwest breezes
prevail is the best time. Warm foggy
mornings have been found good for all
kinds of fishing.
He who bats his hook for sport will
not fail to bait for the black bass, and il
he is fortunate enough to allure the
small mouth species TO play with him he
may enjoy an experience not soon to be
orgotten-certainly not so long as the
fish is holding an animated conversation
with him. And when the angler has
taken him home-if he is fortunate
enough TO get him that far-he will have
delicate reminder that next TO worthy
conquest is valiant fight and that in
ward satisfaction that cultivated ac-
quaintance alone can give.
1t is matter of interest to note that
the small-mouth species varies to 4 con-
siderable extent in color, so mucl SO
that individual fish have been known to
assume different shade, in harmony
with their surroundings, evidently at
will, and for the purpose of their own
protection. In taking the bait the black
bass is very capricious. Although any
bait to be successful must be one that
the bass is acquainted with, yet bait
that is acceptable at one time will be de
clined at another, so that if the angler
desires to catch instead of being caught
i'm the lurch. and if he consider the
reputation of the diplomat preferable to
the fate of the philos 4phcr he will pro-
vide himself with Il repcrtory of bats
with which he may amuse himself and
the fish until he has caught onto the
popular taste. But let no bass deceive
you. They may flrt with the bait, and
give all the evidence Of being hooked,
when suddenly it is thrown aside in dis
dain. and-you must try again.
The large mouth spec cs is not 50 fas-
tidious Although there is difference
of opinion about his game qualities, his
record as an entertaining companion
does not appear as favorable as his more
diminutive featured relative. 1t is also
said that he receives fewer invitations
to dinner However cautious he may
be about being entertained himself. he
is ever ready to entertain unawarcs.
He appears not to be without appreci-
alton of all the bounties OF nature. In
the cleaning he and his companions as
semble apparently To basll in the mellow
light which is reflected from the pebbles
Often does man do likewise So the
habit shows some intelligence on the
part of the bass Bat if the man who is
doing likewise at the same time has his
rod within reach he may take advantage
of the habit.
For comparatively quiet sport You
might tackle rock bass. The color is
handsome being olive, with q brassy
tinge, and markings Of yellow and green.
A species said to be peculiar to the
Roanoke River, Virginia, is lighter in
color, being described as "silvcry, dust
ed with dark points. This is a fish that
sometimes ladies are interested in catch
ing and-disposing of.

A Needed Lesson.

A unique specimen of womankind,
says a New York letter, was mother
IN a drawing-roOm car, accompanied
by young hopeful and an immaterial
sort of husband. With much ado she
disposed of her wraps, boxes, and bum
dies. In a loud, aggressive voice she
upbraided the car-builders, who had
put too many chairs into the vehicle. A
pleasant old gentleman offered the use
of hook beside his seat for the hanging
up of cloak that was troubling her.
The son whispered to his mother he
was afraid their neIghbor couldn't see,
as the cloak swung over the window.
That's his lookout said the amia-
BILE creature; don't you never worry
about other people. See that you
make yourself comfortable; that's all
you're obliged to do.
The boy belonged to some uniformed
school, and wore uniform. Some
thing was wrong with his cuffs. Al
luding to one Susan, evidently the
laundress, he said:
81 had a good mind to hit her when
| see 'em."
81 wonder you didn't, returned ma.
An elegant lady with 4 nursemaid
and two lovely children occupied adj.
iacent seats. The little girls betrayed
their careful training. Their manners
we're perfect. The elder, graceful
creature of ten or twelve years, won
the undis9uised admiration of the cub,
while the luxurious appointments and
fine atmosphere of the mother was very
attractive to the cubs keeper. who
made oyertures Of friendly nature to
the whole family; but the nurse re-
fused the candies for the children, and
the lady answered in polite but frigid
monosyllables that ended further at
tempts at intimacy. Thrown back
on the society of the cub, the woman's
idiotic counsels amused or inccnsed her
hearers according to their nature.
All of n sudden, in reply to some re-
mark of her son, she broke out:
Never do anything you don't want
TO. Remember that. Through all
your life, never do anything you don't
like to"
The elegant lady raised her eyes
from her book and, with sweet smile,
said to the boy:
viii you favor me with your
name?"
james TAYLOR" answered the lad.
"Jamcs Carter Taylor amended
the mother, with an obsequious smile.
Il shall endeavor 70 remember it, I
returned the lady. "for Mr.. James
