work at once and organize temporari-
", so that when the End day OF Aug
ust comes they will be in condition
to know who to elect as permanent
officers of their respective clubs. In

The Columbia Register says, ''that
Ex-Gov. John c. Sheppard, of Edge
6eld, has made the mistake of his
life, in declining to be candidate for
the Office of governor. The Register
ought to remember that Ex-Governor
Sheppard hasn't very thick coating
of hair on his Uranium, and it would
be utterly useless for him to bring that
well balanced appendage in contact
with Tillman wall. Mr.. Sheppard
has no doubt heard of "the ways that
are dark and the tricks that are vain,
the ants are dangerously peculiar"
therefore he shows good judgment in
declining. The Ne,cs and Courier of
yesterday asks, "what has become OF
Lieutenant Governor Mauldin, OF
Greenville? Why is he not on the
stump, speaking for himself and the
party?" Perhaps Mauldin has been
to mill also, and yet this paper is not
discouraged. It keeps on crying for
help, and still it is not happy. Who
next?
A Miraculous Escape.
