Honea Path Items.

The Honea Path High School opened
last week with about one hundred pupils
and several others have come in since.
The election passed off very quietly at
this place. We think both sides ought to-
be satisfied now. The Conservatives have
til. msn they desired for President, and
th. lilIman men have the man they de.
Aired for Governor. If all white men in
the State will rally to the support of
Cleveland and Tillnlan We think harmony
will be aguin restoi8d. But if either side
refuses to support the nominees, there
may he split that will work lasting in
jury to the State. We think the Tillman
men ought to feel bound to support Cleve.
land, because they sent delegates to the
Convention that nominated cleveland.
We think the Conservatives ought to feel
bound to support Tillman, because they
took part in the primary that nominated
Til!msn. We think that all men ought to
feel bound to support the nominees OF the
party, because negro rule may be the re-
suit Of any further division at this time.
Mr.. R. O. Branyon sold the first bale OF
new cotton at this place last Saturday. We
understand that he received about seven
and half cents for it, though the regular
price would have been about six and three
quarter cent?.
Mr.. G. E. Harper ginned his first bale Of
new cotton last Saturday.
The cotton crop is short and the price
low, but corn is good and large crop
planted in this section. We think about
all the fodder has been saved in good con-
dition.
Messrs. T. II. Brock, J. G. Milford and
J. w. Brock have gone to Northern mar
kets to buy their winter stock of goods.
Mr.. Collins is prepared to do all kind OF
machinery work. He will be found at the
shop formerly occupied by Mr.. T. G. Nor
wood.
Mr.. James Rickets is making molasses
for this community, and judging from the
amount of sorghum that is being hauled to
him there is large crop made this year.
Several plantations near town are for
rent, and parties wishing to get near town
make arrangements as soon as possible. as
these chances have always been quickly
taken, and if you wait you will probably
fail to get place.
