THE SITUATION.

The political situation in our county
IS interesting and somewhat exciting.
me democratic primaries for nomina-
tlons on the county ticket are over.
Inc result has been declared by the of
nciai head of the Democratic party in
!, Newoerry County. All the people Sc
lected and constituted this official head
and the candidates and their friends
placed their destinies in the ballots of
the people. The people have spoken
SSISasr~ ballots, and the results have
Seen announced. No protests have been
laid before the Executive Committee
as provided in such cases by the rules
the party. The proper thing now
all the candidates and their friends
Tdo, is to submit gracefully to the will
OF the people, and move on harmo-
niously as one united family.
sMr. Sigh says there will be no inde-
pendent ticket sprung in the county,
and he has been discouraging it, and
gsill continue to discourage it.
When the people get over the excite
,ent and come to think soberly over
snation they will see that this
MA3dependent ticket will not

Son the back streets all is dead anC
: ilstless. Few people go out unless they
have special business, and the streets il
the, back portions Of the city and su.
burbs are as quiet as if the entire pouu.
Iatlon had gone OF on big picnic. At
nearly every block hangs out one or
more of the ever present and sign1fica Mt
yellow flags, and the life seems to be
the presence Of the nurses going to
their tasks or the wagons. OF the relief
committee going the rounds. An occa-
sional ice wagon, the big canvas cov-
ered delivery wagon Of some grocery
store and the hearse seem to be all the
vehicles That break the solemn and
aWe-inspiring stiffness that reigns su-
preme. Even the few children seen,
poor things, have caught the air Of uni
Fersal sadness and sorrow, and sit per-
maps by the open window of an inhab-
lted house or on the porch, listlesslv
gazing out, probably in their childish
way endeavoring to reason out this
reign OF terror, their swings, playthincs
and toys all neglected and seemingly
forgotten. No shout of youngsters at
ball or marbles, or the ringing, merry
laugh is heard. All is quiet, dead and
still. Even the negro boy though |
less frightened or affected by the pres
ence Of the scourge than the white lads.
teel the universal dread that seems to
Welgh down the air, and their exuber-
ant spirits are curbed for once. The
closed and blinded houses, the neg
lected yards with grass foot high9
all these tell the sad story palmer than
the most eloquent pencil or pen. The
ready response to the appeal for aid
makes our people feel deeply grateful.

AS the cunning season is now about to

different violations Of the law of trespass.
