Oar Greeleyyille Letter.

GIEELEyvILLE, Oct. 3.--The political cam
paign has ended, and so haye the dog days.
The mocking bird sings merrily, in utterig-
norance Of the whereabouts Of the candi-
date or the dog star. I agree with you en-
tirely as to the action Of the executive COM
mittee in this county. But You don't know,
perhaps, that the idea is to go with the ma
jority. even though the laws and regulations
have to be disregarded.
Mr.. VIM Cooper and Mr.. F. Marion Brit
ton were active members of the farmers
movement in this county when there was
no politics nor Tillmanisn in it. Mr.. Brit
ton was the first vice president Of the coun-
ty association; Mr.. Cooper was formerly a
member of the legislature. They are both
left out of the Offices they were seeking.
Tillmanism has left the farmers movement
'.in the vocative," as the schoolboys used to
say.
The weather for weeks past has been very
unfavorable to cotton in the pods and pea
vine hay cut and ungathered. The latter
will not be totally ruined however, left to
dry before housing it will be fair forage.
Horses and cattle, with sufficiency of con-
centrated food, still need bulky provender,
and this the pea vine hay VIII furnish.
The ladies of the Mount Hope Baptist
church recently furnished a supper at this
place for the purpose of raising money with
which to purchase an organ for the church
They realized nearly fifty dollars.
There has been q young mems prayer
meeting organized at New Market Metho-
dist church. At this church and also at
Richmond Presbyterian church there is n
Sabbath-school.
Miss Lucilla Montgomery has been i'll for
some time past.
1t is said of lady of this county that her
birthday occurs only once every four years,
while an old man of this place declares he
never had but one in his life, and has no
recollection Of that one
We sincerely sympathizewitn the paren IS
Of those children who recently fell into wells
Of water. Cannot something be done to
prevent such accidents? The board of
health, or the town council, or the parents
themselves should take the matter in hand.
1t would never do to yoke OF hobble the
children, and perhaps the next surest plan
would be to ill the wells with earth

lea ad Poison Cured.

I am painter by trade. Three
years ago I had a bad case of lead
poison, caused by using rubber paint.
I was cured in a short time by S. S. S.
The medicine drove the poison out
through the pores Of the skin. When
I first commenced taking S. S. S., my
system was SC saturated with poison
that my underclothes were colored by
the paint being worked out by the
medicine through the. pores of my
skin. I was cured entirely by S. S.
S. I took nothing else, and have had
no return since.

Mr.. S. r. Chandler, of Motifs, refus-
ed to accept the nomination for the
legislature from the Haskellians in
Florence county.
The Republican State executive
committee and the conference OF
Straightout Haskellians met last Mon
day in Columbia. It was coinci-
dence: wonder if there was any con-
nection or conference between the
two bodies?
The Haskell manifesto has given
our town politicians new subject to
discuss, but with very few exceptions
there is feeling of disapproval The
people from the country that were in
town Monday, Ants as we'll as Till
NANTES, say that they propose to
stand by the nominees of the Demo
cratic party, and that they cannot af-
ford to split.
One of the hardest fought political
battles in>this campaign of hard polit-
ical fights, has been that in tue fourth
district, which in the second primary
was between Shell and Duncan. Each
side exerted its strength to the ut
most tension. and though Mr.. Duncan
had the aristocracy and most of the
newspapers on his side, and all active.
ly fighting for him, yet it looks as if
Shell has won the fight. The second
primary was held yesterday, and it is
claimed that Shell is several hundred
votes ahead, and that the official count
will give him majority of over a thou
sand votes. The vote throughout the
district was very large.

If there had continued to be no organized

THE NEWS AND COURIER


in an editorial last Monday says: There
was a time to combat Tihman and
Til!manism. That time was while the con-
test could be made within the Democratic
ranks, or at least under the name OF Democ-
racy. So long as there was shadow OF a
chance to keep Tillman and his clique out
of control of the Democratic party, the
News and Courier strove, with all its might
to accomplish that end, as the best thing for
the party and the State.
IF the men who have been prominent in
the Democratic party Of South Carolina
heretofore had had the courage of their con-
yictions, and had stood up to the News and
Courier, Tiliman could have been beaten
and the Democratic party saved. II at the
last Straightout Conference there had been
unanimous action and a State primary had
been demanded as an ultimatnm to decide
which faction of the Democratic party was
really in the majority, the alternative being
presented Of an appeal to the polls, We be-
heye the primary would have been granted;
and if it had been refused, the Straightouts
would at least have had color for the claim
that they were the true Democratic party Of
the State.
But all that is past. The opportunity was
lost. This is no time to fight Tillman or
Tillmanism. A renewal of the conflict now
is mere folly and madness, for success can
only be accomplished by disrupting, nay
destroying, the Democratic party. The party
that defeats the regular Democratic ticket at
this election must do so by the aid Of the
Republicans, and this, in the light of past
experience, is enough Of itself to condemn
the whole movement. The News and Cou-
rier fought, as it said It would, just SO long
as there was any chance to fight within the
Democratic organization. That condition
