,DEAR GoUaIER: The weather Ii hot
and plenty Of rain has fallen SO fer, and
everything la the crop line Is doing we'll.
The protraoted meeting, conducted by
Rey.sJ. s.. Abercrombie, at Ocomea Ne the
dist church, Was brought to q close
Thursday evening, July 80. q. t5j
The weather Is hot. So lis the can,-
paign. q.
Tho general query at presentis is: aHaye
ye so@ed any tpsnins VT p' Everybody
should have q patch OF this useful yeger
table, SO that next winter nobody will
have to say, "Billy, run over to scruggs's,
an tell 'em we'd like to have mess5 O.
turnip salet, an be quick, too" "
a great deal lis being said about ssthe
situation" in South Carolina, but If the
whites, Tillman or anti tril!man, stick
together there is not much Of a s'situa-
tom" about 1t. Let the minority 60
with the majority, as it should do, and
the State is safe. For q long while the
anti -Tillman faction has boon ranting
aheat tloyalty to tho Democratic party
and II 'Iillman is nominated, (wlich we
think he will ba, to support him will be
to show the much talked of loyalty. If
Earle is nominated, the Tillmanites like
wise. 8 Is ; ;4i
Mr.. j. f.. Kelley, now of Columbia,
made q short visit to relatives living near
here last week. Ed. is looking we'll and
Is as jolly rs ever,
Miss A. G. Jones recently returned
from Highlands, where she spent several
weeks. in the cool atmosphere of the
s'city above the clouds /" :
Protraoted,meetings on every hand.
Before this is printed tho Congressional
speaking will be over ct Walhalla and
the men who want to grace the halls Of
Congress will have s'said their say and
dono their do" in tho only county which
hasn't an aspiring candidate for Congress
in this District.
Candidates should buy plenty of cider
for the pionics. We do not intend to say
that they should t,ribe voters with apple
juice, but people like cider and as they
all pretend to be solicitous for the well
fare of tho "poor down -trodden farmer"
pIioy ihiSAG uclp Hlth W SitFo nlS apples
by bnying his cider.
Somo months ago tho COURIER said |:
"Keep an extra hoe on hand and when
the candidate comes around, pretending
to be a good friend of tho farmer, ask
him to take row." But the hoeing soa-
son is over now and we want to ask
''What is tho matter with row of fod-
der?' short time hence.
A now public road is talked of, extend
ing from tho public highway, near Mrs
G. jones' house, on Tomassee, to the
public road above the old "sink spring."
traversing the farm of Mrs. G. Jonos and
tho farms Of hfessrs. Leo, Massey, Cal
houn and Todd. 1t is to be hoped that
this road will be accepted by the Com
missioners, as q road is badly needed rs
an outlet to market for populous COM
munity. Then perhaps mail route will
DO established through this section. It
should be put into operation.

DEAR CoURIEis:: yye are having some
bsaatifui snnsliny days now. IL has
not rained any here in several days. The
nights are quite cool and pleasants. & SS
The cotto,:: crop lis look king remarkably
well. Late corn is also doing s,cIl !; IN
fact, i think that corn and co tton may be-
estimated at an average crop at least.
The sweet potato crop Is quito promis-
ing, and if we can only have \ few.
showers of rain occasionally, in order
,q e, sae,,se good turn; ..!.;,I that
wowill DO able to meet the ,ib-treasury.
Politics is getting to bo q very dull
thing with us. Even the school-b boys
have learned oil the politics Of the day.
We have noticed a great many oandi.
dates passing through hore in the last
few days, and how different they seem to
what they used to i'll the grand old times
when they would go about and hunt us
up and give us instructions as to all tho
difficulties and dangers into which we
wore liable to fall. Why they don't even
like to talk on the subject of farming.
much less the Farmers Movement now
adays, but must confess that they are
the most agreeable follows I ever saw.
I do wish could get to spend moro time
with them, but willnot be selfish with
them, as ] know that their aim is to DO
doing good and not to show any par
tiality They arc also tho most enor-
getic people we hayo; but if farmers arc
not energetic they can't expect to sue
Good. So our candidates are all good
follows in tho right place. But alas
thoy can't tall be elected.
Mr.. j. p. Wilson and bride, of Whet.
stone, stopped over hero ono night last
week on their way to Montana. We wish
this happy couple great success.
Mr. w. j. Porter, of this place, has
returned from q visit III Georgia. He

day evening for homo and was found
Sunday morning, about o'clock, in OF
near Snow creek, in q dying condition
His clothes were literally torn in shrcds
