ELECTION NOTES.

The entire Republican County
Ticket was elected except Theodore
Bracken and w. B. Stubert.
It IS reported that the Decker
tickets were destroyed in certain town
ships in this county.
Mr.. Decker got a handsome vote in
his own county. He has reason to be
proud Of the action of his neighbors.
Judge Decker is yet d young man.
He has ability and moral worth and
has a bright political future before
him.
Theodore Bracken, defeated, is to
be honored more than the men who
DETAINED him and circulated false re-
ports about him
Remember that the Republicans
this year had to contend against a
fusion ticket supported by Democrats
and Union Laborites.
The returns show in this Town
ship that about twenty-five Pratt vot-
ers scratched Bracken and Barnes.
The trading Clubs" got in their work,
One of the rOor-backs put afoat be-
fore election was that Mr.. Bracken
had been Jacob Nipps' clerk. That
was false in toto and was told for
political effect
There are seven Republican papers
in this county. Six of them support
ed L. K. Pratt for Judge. The HER
AID is the only Republican paper that
supported S. D. Decker. The result
of the vote in this county is not IN
complimentary to the HERALD.
The election of G. Webb Bertram.
Democrat, to the District Jude shiD Of
this judicial District is conceded.
This of course is the result of a split
among the Republicans of the dis
trict. Mr. Bertram has the reputa-
ion Of being a good lawyer and a
moral, upright, fair minded man.
Our personal acquaintance with him
has been of short duration but he has
impressed us faYOrably, and it will be
remembered that during the hot cam
paign just ended the HERALD spoke
no word derogatory of him as a man,
lawyer or citizen; we believe lie will
be just and good Judge.

Intelligence, and not ignorance, is
what an Iowa Court recently held as
a proper qualification for a juror.
The Judge, in giving his opinion on
this subject. held that the bare fact
that a man has read the newspapers
and formed an opinion therefrom con
corning any case on the trial of which
he may be called to serve as a juror,
provided such opinion is subject to
change upon the presentation of evil
dence to the contrary, does not dis
qualify him for jury service. This
level-headed ruling will go far, if
generally adopted, to overcome one of
the greatest objections to the prevail
ing custom of filling jury boxes with
ignoramuses instead of men of intel
igence and sense-competent to dis
charge jury duty Champion.

keeps it empty. There will be Kansas

abundance to eat, but plenty to wear.
There will be both food and raiment.

The careful little economies which be-

Earning Sharing.

The question of cooperation or the
division of earnings between labor and
capital, is every day becoming more
promine nt. In America, in England,
IN France, scarcely a single newspa-
per or review appears without some
notice of the question, some argu-
ment for or against, some theory on
the subject. The most Indifferent are
anxious to learn what changes will re-
suit and what interests will he affect
ed. In France theory proceeds prac-
tice. The English distrust theories
and want something practical, and do
not form theories till the practical
work is in operation.
The cooperative societies in Great
Britain now number 1,400, with mil
lion of members and profits exceeding
$15,OOOOOO annually Such co-opera-
tive societies we are not now begin
ming to discuss. We may however
quote from one of the earliest English
societies the statement that their prin-
cipal object was 'the equitable divis-
ion of profits. They believe that all
who contribute to the realization of
wealth ought to Participate in its dis
tribution" How is this distribution
to be effected, and on what principal
is it to be based? What is the rela-
ton between capital and wages?
Capital lends money, and interest
Is the rent Of capital, labor lends its
work, and wages are the rent of labor
Between them is made what some cali
profit and others more wisely call
earnings. Capital is the nursing moth
er of labor and must be paid for its
risks. Labor, too, must be paid fo1
its risks by obtaining like capital, its
share of the earning of their united
cooperation. I'VE do not ask" says
a great english leader that prof
it [say earnings shall be devided
when there Is none, but claim when
there is, that the workman shall share
it in the proportion in which the labor
creates it."
Profit sharing, or rather the shar-
ing of earnings, is coming and it must
come in two ways. One is by the co.
operative workshops, of which there
is no question IN this article, or by
some sort of partnership or arrange
ment by which when the working ex
penses, interest on capital and reserve
fund are provided, there is a division
of earnings between capital and labor
As business is usually conducted
the employer gives the least he car
for labor, and the Iaborer does the
least he can in return. But when the
system of profits or earning sharing
prevails the Iaborer puts honesty in.
to his work, he economies material
he raises the reputation of the firm
for the reputation of the firm is h1,
reputation. 1t IS in this direction
that the ADVOCATES of cooperation
look. participation in earning say.
Holyoake, involves no re-casting o.
society, disturbs no business admins
tration. It confscates no mans prom
erty, it makes capital secure and puts
the means of competence into every
industrious mans hands. ST Joe

Notes from Townyille.

Miss Maggie Mattison, of Greenville, is
visiting in the Fork.
VIM. 8. Brown, ESQ, and family, of
Anderson, spent several days here last
week among relatives.
The erection Of a Baptist Church near
Farmers Store at an early day is strong
probability.
Mr.. Cowan Bowen, nice young man of
Abbeville County, visited friends and rela.
tives here last week.
"Dan," the faithful horse of DR.. j. P.
Harris died last week, being thirty.three
years old. "Dan" probably did service in
the late war. The old war-horses are
nearly all dead.
]. G. CAN'T, j. A. Hatcher, W. P. Shell
grove and "A. F. Cromer represented the
Methodist Churches of the Fork in the
District Conference at Walhalla last week.
The Baptist Church at this place are con-
structing convenient baptistery on the
Church lot, which will include attractive
and substantial dressing-rooms.
Miss Matte McCarley, an amiable young
lady of this place, has been quite sick for
some time, but is now somewhat better.
The gin. house of Mr.. c. S. Milford, in
this Township, blew down during rain
and wind storm last week. Mr.. Milford
was at work underneath the building when
the storm struck it, and came near losing
his life in the wreck. The debris complete
ly entrapped him, but he escaped unhurt.

Corner Items.

Always a complaint issuing from our
lips. Last week il was the cry dry! dry I!
this week rain rain! Too much-will it
ever be that we have things exactly to
suit? .=
The town ofCook' is now on boom.
The material is now on the grounds for
the erection of g. dwelling house, Metho-
dist Church and commodious school
room. Would suggest that the painters
brush would add considerably to the
appearance of some of The Improvements
already made.
Rev. Mark Grier, of Due West, was in
our midst last week canvassing for funds
for the improvement Of the buildings Of
Erskine College. We don't know with
what success be met, but hope his mis-
sion proved not failure, for it is certainly
very worthy cause for which he labors.
It is to such institutions that We naturally
look for the upbuilding and support of
our country.
Tho regular semi. annual communion
services will commence at Good Hope
Church on next Friday, 9th inst. the
pastor, Rev. R. G. Ligon, will be assisted
by that very able divine, the Rev. ]. o.
Lindsay, of Due West. Those who attend
may expect something more than ordi.
nary in the presentation Of gospel truths.
A very prominent young merchant at
Cooks Station thinks that Miss Roporin
should be more guarded and careful in
her department. towards young men that
her recent behavior towards him, consid-
ering the time and place, was altogether
unbecoming We don't know exactly all
the circumstances conDected Herewith,
but think it might be very good advice,
especially when in his presence, since he
is so liable to notice and question any,
thing in the least seeming improper
Tom is, any way, quite modest and
timid young man.
Mr.. Albert Bowie, who recently pur-
chased fine farm in this neighborhood,
will at once proceed to the improvement
of the same by the erection of comforta-
BILE residence and all necessary buildings.
A saw mill is now located on the place
ready to furnish all necessary material
for building purposes. Albert has all the
vim and energy, and with the assistance
of his very excellent helpmate, success in
life surely awaits him.
On Friday, 9th inst, there will be meet
ing of the Moffattsville Alliance. 1t is
very desirable that there should be full
attendance Besides the installation Of
officers, there will be other business OF
prime importance to the Order demanding
attention.
Speaking of alliances reminds US that
there is a silent but constantly whispered
rumor Of an alliance being effected
between this and an adjoining Township.
This alliance, though with only two mem
bcrs, and the assistance ofa clergy or n.
p, becomes perfect organization until
do separate us by DEATH" Now,
don't all bounce me at once, forI don't
! mean you besides we didn't tell it, but

A very sad accident took place at
Campton last Monday. Squire William
Camp went out on the creek to look at
the crop. His little grandson Tommie,
son of Mr.. Thomas Camp, went with him.
He was about three years old. Wishing
to 20 over some ground where the little
boy could not we'll get along, he said to
him to wait there until he came back.
After an absence of fifteen to thirty
minutes he returned but the little boy
could not be seen. His fears were arous-
ed and he began to examine the little
stream. He soon found the little fellow
drowned. He had gone 10 the bank Of
the creek and had fallen in Il place too
deep for him. 1t was Il most sorrowful

The rains for the past week or SO have
been dno, and "crops are booming" OF
course the farmer is feeling good. The
rains, in few instances, have been quite
heavy, but the good results will more
than balance.
Fruit and vegetables are plentiful on
every hand.
Would it not be in order for our people
to meet at given time and return thanks
to Him from whom all good eminates?
Some of our people are having their
fruit made into brandy, which will but
help to tighten the cords that some of
them are already hard bound, and bring
their families "however innocent they
may be" to shame and disgrace.
Prof. Willis closed his singing on the
7th inst. He received praises at every
hand for the pains taken to instruct the
class, and for the proficiency the scholars
attained during the short time. His class
at Ruhamah will give concert some time
in September, the proceeds Of which will
20 to some charitable purpose. We be-.
speak for them a full house. No enter
tainment headed by Mr.. Willis will be
anything like a failure.
A meeting will begin at Providence
next Friday night. The pastor, Mr..
Ford, will be assisted by Rev. ]. W. Bios
ser. The meeting will probably continue
for week or more. The services, we are
informed, will be held under the harbor.
We were shown piece of branch bot.
torn of some two acres, few days ago, by
Mr.. G.. l.. Stevenson, which has a crop CT
corn on it of variety called flour corn.
Mr.. Stevenson did all the work that it has
received, except the plowing, himself,
and the old gentleman takes special
pride in showing and giving in detail the
superior quality of this species Of corn.
One advantage is its succoring propensity.
lie planted two grains in the hill some
ten or twelve inches apart, and in nearly
every hill there is from six to ten well
developed stalks, making almost solid
mass from one end Of the row to the other.
Mr.. Stevenson says the fodder that he will
gather from the land will more than pay
the expenses Of cultivation also, that
barrel of flour mixed about the proper
ton of third corn cannot be detected
by the sharpest expert. 1t would be
worth our farmers while to give it a trial,
as it is much surer crop than wheat, and
much more prolific.
Rev. Hugh McLees preached an excel.
lent sermon at Antioch last Sunday. He
will preach again at the same place the
first Sunday in September, and will,
perhaps, protract for several days.
Miss Bette Earle has been confined to
her room for several days with sickness,
which caused her school to stop. We
trust she will soon recover and be able to
resume her duties in the school room.
A protracted meeting was held at Ru.
hannah the better part Of last week. The
pastor did the preaching without any as
sistance. BURKE.
