TWO CENTS.
SECRETARY PRoCToR's SUCCESSOR.
Ex-Gov. Cheney of New Hampshire Believed
to BE the Man

1t Is probable that eX-Gov. Cheney Of New
Hampshire will succeed Mr. Proctor as secre-
tary OF War. Gov. Cheney and Mr.. Harrison
are old-time friends and the President is an xious
to have him In the cabinet. Unless some po-
htical consideration arises to prevent it. which
seems not likely, the appointment will be made
when Mr.. Proctor retires. When Mr. Harrison
first formed his cabinet he wanted Gov Cheney
as his Secretary Of War, but there were reasons
which induced the governor to decline. and at
his suggestion Mr.. Proctor was chosen.
Aside from Mr.. Harrison's personal prefer
ence for Gov. Cheney there is possibility that
the selection might have an important bearing
on the next national convention. There is said
not to be q very strong Harrison sentiment in
New England and that there is no delegation
from there which he can certainly rely on ex-
cePt that OF Vermont, which will probably be
held In line by Mr.. Proctor. DIR. Gal
linger, who comes into the Senate from
New hampshire next winter. is said to be try
ing TO SO shape things as to get control of the
delegation from that state for Alger. He has
declared himself for Alger and is trying to
shape things SO as to have himself and two or
three old soldiers, who will be for Alger rs
delegates to the convention, giving him
control. DIR. Gallinger has had little or
no recognition from the administration and is
counted among its active opponents. With the
bitter fight that is on between Gallinger and
Chandler. the latter may be relied on to take
the opposite side Of any question. Chandler is
now engaged in trying to show that Gallinger
is In cahoots with the democratic leaders,
through the influence of the Boston and Maine
railroad, and to destroy his influence in the
state.
Chandler wants Cheney to 60 the head Of the
War Department and Mr.. Harrison personally
has the same desire. 1t is claimed that If the
appointment is made it will enable the admin
istration people to defeat DIR. Gallingers plans
for the delegation to the national convention
and will also have a good influence upon the
other New England states.
Chandler is making bloody war on Gallinger
IN his paper de is just out with an attack on
him many columns in length, and is said to
have more in reserve. He practically charges
him with being in the hands of Frank Jones,
the democratic boss.

JURY OUT IN ELLIoTrs CASE
THE wIsBECH ELECTION.
Comment Of the London Press on the Re-
sult-

LoSDoS, July 25.-The TiDsss says Of the
result Of the Misbech election: This defeat
is the worst the unionists have sustained.
Gladstone has at length obtained an srgu-
ment supporting his predictions Of success
at the general election. The rsverss
was not due TO popular adoption Of home rule,
but rather to the unionist liberals Withdrawing
their support from the conservative under the
belief that the time has come when they csn
again exercise freedom in their choice II
politics"
The Post saws: "The election was an un-
doubted defeat for the unionists. Nothing can
be gained by attempting 20 minimize it. The
result was due 60 unionist csrelessness and
apathy. The decline of its former spirit
griyely menaces the unionist cause"
The Chrontcle believes the result 10 have been
due 20 the conservative candidates adopting
the protection cry. Laborers recognize tbst
protection for farmers will not increase their
wages They voted for the Gladstonian can
ditate believing that radical measures had bet
ter be trusted to a radical government
The Ddtiy Aetcs Is jubilant. IL declares that
the result Of the election is proof that the
country generally is waiting to reverse the do
cihion of 1855.

The CRAMPS GET THE CONTRACT.
Tracy has decided to award the construction Of
cruiser No. 13 to the William Cramp 4 Sons
Ship and Engine-building Company. The
price agreed upon is 1880, 600, the same
figures submitted by the Bath iron works of
Maine. The Secretary's object in giving the
contract to the Cramps instead of to the
Maine firm is to facilitate the construction of
the ship. At least years time will be gained.
as the Cramps have every facility to do the
work speedily. The vessel when completed
must make not less than twenty y-one knots Der
hour, and this speed must be maintained for
four hours. She viii be one Of the speediest
vessels in the world

Children's day at Liberty Springs
was a as far as the speeches
and recitation and music was con-
cerned but the rain sadly inter-
fered with the social part Of the
day.
The meeting at Liberty Springs
closed or Thursday. There were
five additions to the church and
we trust much other good in the
reviving and spiritualizing the
members of the church.
There has been a large number
of visitors in the town for the past
week.
Mrs, Lucy MCGOWAN and family,
Of Laurens, have boon visiting the
family of DR.. McSwain and others.

Ex-Governor Lubbock and wife,

Cross Hill is still on q boom.
Buildings r going up as if by
magic and the old houses are being
renovated and painted. Our town
council are having some good work
done on the streets, and when we
consider that it has only been ten
months since the first train rolled
over the railroad and only seven
months since tho town was incor.
rorated, it is astonishing how
much has been done, and we are
made confident of the future great
hes of our town.
With six stores In full blast and
two more in the near future and
several residences under contract
Cross Hill is not to be laughed al
as q town.

Enorec succumbs to Laurens.

Enoree and Laurens played great
ball on tho local diamond Saturday and
our W champions captured the victory
and the glory by a score of sixteen to
ten. The strangers played a very pretty
game and are by no means tyros in tho
manipulation Of the sphere. But the
truth is the Laurens boys are all thor
ough ball players and the team that
conquers them will have something to
be proud of.
Laurens took the lead Mt the start and
never let loose. Irby and Cox were the
battery for the strangers and Jim Crows
and John Langston held the points for
the homo team.
