Edgefield advertiser. [volume] (Edgefield, S.C.) 1836-current, 1892-06-09
Out in the Cold.

The Columbia Register says that it
has been mutually agreed by Gov.
Tillman and Candidate Sheppard that
no campaign meeting will be held at
Edgefeld. This will be great dis
appointment to, many in Edgefield
county.
Summer Boarding.
Persons wanting boarders for the
summer months can leave their names
and rates per month with Mr.. w. 81.
Turner. Reduced rates over the; rail-
roads have been granted to persons
living in Augusta who may desire to
summer in Edgefeld. Next week we
shall give the exact figures if possible.
Our 4 O'clock Train.
We hear that our o'clock train ON
the Cumberland Gap road is to be
taken off, and that Capt. Greneker and
Engieener Whaley are to be transferred
to the main line. This puts Edgefield
in the soup again, temporarily, at least.
The fall trade, however, will make nee
essary another train to carry off ard
to bring up freight.
No Excuse.
1t Is alleged that there is an indis-
position on the part of some candidates
in this county to indicate whether
they are in favor of the progressive
and reform element of the Democracy
in this State or the "get back" crowd.
Now, there cannot be particle of ex-
cuse for. this. If one-half the bad
things said about Tillman are true
you can surely make up your mind to
go against him, and if one-half the
good things attributed to him are true
you can make up your mind to go
for him. In either event, there is no
excuse for vacillation or hesitation. :,
