Extracts from LowndeSville Advertiser
Latimer Locals.

LATIMER, July 2, 1888.
The weather continues hot and dry
Farmers are all blue. Most of them
are well up with their work.
Mr.. E. It. Yarbrough is with Mr..
G.. G.. Graves for the summer. His
many friends are delighted to welcome
him back to the home Of his youth.
Little Thomas, the infant son of Mr..
and Mrs. IT. II. Graves, died last Sun.
day. The sympathy of the entire COM
munity goes out to the fond parents in
their sad bereavement.
After an absence of several months,
Mr.. Bethea filled his appointment at
Salem yesterday, much to the delight
of the entire congregation.
Mr.. Edwin Calhoun, of Monterey,
passed through town last Friday, en-
route for Washington, Ga, to bring
home his little daughters who have
been attending school there for the
past six months. a...-.
Several of our Latimer young Ia
dies joined the Lowndesville excur-
sionists last Friday. The kind people
Of Mt. Carmel quite won their hearts.
They all report charming time.
Mrs. DR.. Dunn, of Augusta, spent
several days with her sister Mrs. T. H.
Graves last week. t.
After O pleasant visit of ten weeks
to friends and relatives, Miss Matte
Harper returned home yesterday.
Miss Matte is charming and made
many friends during her visit.
Several of our young men have
"nobby" new buggies and, of course,
the girls are all enjoying delightful
rides. s..,.,~
Mr.. Arthur Calhoun, of Mon
terey, worshipped at Salem yester-
day. There is some other attraction
in Latimer for Arthur, we think, save
church-going. ~
Misses Meta ahd Lena Brownlee, of
Antreville, are visiting Miss Cora
Hawthorne. s.lf.
Mr.. Carolin Tennent is home from
Marietta, where he has been attending
school. Welcome home, Carolin.

Qorn,ick Neus,

Mccormick is in need Of thoroughly prac-
tical business milliner-one who will attend
strictly to her businessmen one cannot
fail TO build up spleddid trade here.
Why is 1t that the town council persist In
not clearing the sidewalks Of the town of the
weeds? Have they snake farm In conten-
plation with the sidewalks as the place on
which to plant? We hope not.
Why Is It that O farmer will leave his farm,
trot off to town with half dozen Of eggs, and
sit all day talking about hard times, the lien
law and the poorly managed condition Of the
country, when his crop is In the grass? Who
knows?
The conduct of some who attend the Meth
odist church is more fitted for sociable than
the house of God. Giggling is bad enough at
best but when carried into a church must
strike all properly raised persons as abomina-

the vast sreas of Government land
held by alien land holders in the I'm

900 acres, is held by the Holland Com
pany, of New Mexico. An English

The Camden journal of the S2Sta'
ult. says: 4 {s q s.:
The State Convention for nominasy
ting; State officers has been called to-
meet in Columbia on September 8th 4
and now, If there ever has been y tmez
since 1876, is the time for every good
citizen in this State to rouse up and
put on his thinking cap That our
State Government has been getting:
more extravagant every year sincel
1875 no one can speak the truth a1ldl
deny. Every article of food and cloth
ing is cheaper now than they have
been for years, and yet the salaries or
officials have been increased instead OF
lowered, and the tendency to increase
is still in the ascendant.
It will'be said by many that the
Legislature is the cause Of the trouble.
In great measure it is, but the Ex4s
ecutive department is also responsibls
to a great degree, and the quickest
way to remedy all such evils Is to put
q new and progressive set Of men fIt
office-men who will not only preach
reform, but will practice it. There areS
such men in the State, and for one
time we trust that they may be put il8
office this year. 55 &
Now is the time for the taxpayers to-
come forward in their might and cast
about for good men to send as DEL 4
egates to the convention. Send men
who have practiced already the REFORM
that we need. The men who have
permitted a foolish sentiment to gtiiiiea
them up to this time are not the ones
to risk now. Our people are poor in-l
deed, and those men who can support
no one for office but the Generals and
Colonies, ETC., should be left at home.
There never was State more OVER
ridden by sentiment and nonsense
than South Carolina has been and not

mess man at the helm will be ablo$E4

title to outweigh merit and ability in

to the convention should be selectedl
with care. We know that q ticket has
already been made up, and all the ESSl

for it, butwe do trust that for the good
of the State and eyeryb body in IT that J
