Extracts from Christian NeighbOr
How Do We Vote?

Some little time ago the attention O
the State was fixed upon Columbia's
municipal election and q discussion te
which it gave rise. With the facts and
alleged facts of that occurrence we
have nothing to do now, nor have we
any words 10 speak as to who was
guilty or not guilty, nor do we say
aught of other men who hold office
city, state, or national, that are said to
be quite as much besmirched with
brides as may have been the cds,ts 6elh
of ward four. Of these things the
time and place for discussion is not
now nor here, but from these events we
are moved to enunciate principle, q
bold one, high one, the only one fol-
a Christian to acknowledge. Under
no exigency of expediency, party
unity, is it ever right to do wrong
ever rightto put in office bad man
ever right to give greater power to
evil. 1t is the true thing, the Chris
tian's duty, to vote always for a good
man who will be competent public
servant, always for pure man whose
influence for good is felt wherever he
is known.
To vote for q bad man in order to
preserve party unity, in order to keep
"the other man" QUITO condone
wrong because it happens to be on
"our side"-to vote for man because
we dare not let it be known we oppose
him-to vote for man because he has
what is termed "high social position"
or family influence" or political
power'-to do this and then at some
other time make scape goat as it were
for our wrong doings of some man no
meaner than dozen we have voted for
aforetime is cowardly and unjust. No
Christian should conform his con-
science to "party' necessities. If all
Christians would at all times vote only
for men known to be pure and true in
private as well as public life-at least
not vote for those known to be the con-
trary- then there would be a Christian
government in this country, and not
before. The Christians can make
themselves felt in the politics of the
land-'God expects every man to do
his duty
What has been said above has been
written for the purpose of impressing
upon nominating conventions the i'm
portance of naming candidates who
are morally unexceptionable. Surely
we are not so poor as to make the thing
difficult

Extracts from LOWndeSVille Advertiser
Third Party.

Great fears are entertained by some
as to the formation of third political
party in our State.
1t is not for us to say whether we
are exactly ready for this or not, but
such an organization is inevitable, and
must come in a very few years.
1t is needed now, and will by and
by come in spite of the loud 'elamors
for loyalty to present parties OF meas
ures. The hest interests of the country
demand political reform, and party
lash, and "demagogueism" cannot de-
fer it beyond limited period.
Any party, wishing to be perpetuat-
ed must be aggressive. 1t must con-
suit the best interests of the people,
and its leaders must labor to this end.
If Southern Democracy would re-
main solid, she must consult the high
est interest of the people, and her mot
to must be principle.

Sam Jones.

Not necessary to spell it out Samuel
nor put in the middle initial P. nor to
prefix Rev" for he is so we'll and
widely known and read of all men
that just "Sam Jones" tells it the bet
ter way. There are other Joneses and
other Sans but this is one who is no
akin to any of the Jones family or
to anybody else-so to express knot
ty problem.
AS the Yatman revival meeting was
going OH last Wednesday night and
another gathering for some other pur-
pose near by, the opera house was not
altogether full to hear the lecturer on
"Get There"
After the lecture he consented to
preach neXtmorning at 8 o'clock sharp
in Washington Street Methodist
Church. The house was full at the
appointed hour.
In a strong and impressive sermon
on great theme, he uttered some
grand gospel truths and also some
home-thrusts dittoes now and then
that made most of the people laugh,
some smiled only, while others looked
mixed and few reported themselves
after the meeting as not at all pleased ;
it might be said some of them were
mad. He did say some hard things,
not "against other churches" but rath-
er against the drinking, dancing, card
playing members of the churches, such
as intolerant sticklers for q form OF
godliness but in their lives denying the
power thereof. In Columbia there are
many church-rimmed "hardshells''
who need few more of Sam Jones'
"shells," if they could be got within
range, to wake them out of the sleep
of "smooth things" into which they
have been indoctrinated by the esthet-
ic lullabys of the pulpit, organ and
choir performances.
One thing about Sam Jones preach-
| ing is his hearers understand what he
means. If he is too rough, five other
preachers are too smooth; if he is too
pointed, half dozen others are too
tame and blunt. The fearless preach
er has left marks in Columbia-some
of them sores, may be-but it is hoped
that all hurts will have healthy heal
ing without the volunteer treatment of
a peripatetic.

When faithful ones complain OF the
"little by little" departures from the

people are ready to call them "croak-

thing dangerous and, perchance, al
ready quite hurtful and possibly be-
ysnd control, these same "no harm,"
"no danger" people will begin to think
it is time Something should be done
to arrest the growing evil" All, yes,

and easily controlled, but wider, deep

THE NEW RAILROAD.
Placing the TrestIe for the New
Route Through the City.
Gpee1lvit{e NelpS


The new railroads route through the city
has been finally adopted, with only possible
complications about right of way to prevent
the line being trestled, graded, ironed ard
equipped within the next few weeks. The
last survey made, extending from the lower
end OF the GreenVille g. Laurens trestle ut the
depot and near the turn table side track, has
been fixed. and the greater part OF the right OF
way Is secured.
The hands in Contractor Burckhalter's gang
are rushing the work on the big pile Of heavy
timbers at the depot. and the greet squared
logs IRE being rapidly turned into trestic sup
ports, ties and sills. Yesterday the prepared
Timbers were being hauled duwn and placed
along the line ready for use. The trcstle will
extend clear across the level lots back OF the
gas works and will be something over 1900
feet long. It is estimated that this with the
other trestles to come will make nearly half q
mile OF trestleing inside the city limits.
Grading is expected to beg in In the meadow
by the Air Line trestle to-day or tomorrow.
Contractor Tanners hands are already work
Jug in this direction near Finlay's bridge.
One of the Construction Company'S men

W. H. GILLESPIE g. CO.'S STEAM RENovA
TOR IS WITH Us.
Advantages and Importance OF hav.
ing Feathers Renovated.

The recent improvements in Feather.
Renovating like other inventions, is due to
the ever-existing and long-neglectcd necessity
Of perfect machine for cleaning, purifying
and enliveniug the unwholesome feather bed
diseases. w. II. Gillespie & Co., who have re-
Gently located here, have the latest improved
machine for renovating feathers, the best, fac
ilities for doing the work, and the most COM
petent workmen employed in that business.
We guarantee perfect satisfaction in renovat-
ing all kirds of feathers, both old and new,
also doing good work quickly and neatly.
There are no chemicals used in the operation, 1t
being purely q steaming process that the
feathers are subjected to, hence IL leaves the
feathers perfectly clean, dry, lively, airy and
healthy, in which condition they will last for
years. The steam used in the process destroys
the germs of any disease that may be lodged
in the beds, either from sickness, perspiration
or respiration which, If left In the beds, will
be absorbed into the system, 1t is the only
means of removing loads Of grease, blood,
animal matter and the disagreeable smell
arising from from oil new feathets. 1t insures
perfect protection against moths and other
animalcules which -Ie the fruits Of unclean-
illness. Let this subject be generally under
stood and the services of the renovator will
be considered as indispensable In cleansing,
your feathers OF this unsuspected cause of dis
ease. Housekeeper, concult your own inter
ests. Let us have your orders and we will
call and get your feathers and return them
free from al ! Impurities, besides increased In
bulk from one-third to oneiourth. Gentle
manly agents will call to see you with SAM
Piles before and after cleaning, and will ex-
plain the work es 1t is conducted. The beds
will be weighed before taken from the house
and also after we return them.
