I have been nominated, and in the

rmed. as one of the three County

who gave me then allesIne late
primaries am due, and take tB4ssgsisss 70; g
lie means of acknowledging, my thanks:
To those who opposed me for other
than natural reasons l have only TO
say, I hope they will find me differ
ent and somewhat better man than
they were led to believe me to be.
While I have a due regard to the
surety that I will have been placed IN
office by the votes of a certain faction,
and hope to maintain their friendship,
I propose in the discharge of my duties,
as far as it is in my power, 10 know
20 man or set of men. Believing that
the highest conception of duty is that
a public officer be no respecter OF per
sons, I will endeavor to be guided and
governed by that rule, hoping to merit,
as desire, the approval if possible OF
all right-thinking and .fair-mlnded
men regardless of factional differences
of opinion. I appreciate the fact that
this is free country and we all nave
and have right to have-our lndi-
vidual preferences; but as that has
been settled by the voters, 1t shall be
my aim to be County Commissioner
of the whole people Of Newberry.
To those townships which voted me
such handsome majorities shall ever
be grateful. TO the section which dls-
likes me greatest, and to which accord
ing to the perversity and the irony of
fate T will be chiefly assigned, I am
aware I will 90 under trying condi-

Notes from Excelsior.

Mrs. NJ. L.. Kinard, of Ridgeroad,
has been quite i'll.
Politics has become a thing Of the
past aud our farmers are uusy gather
ering in their six cent cotton.
Mr.. Walton Lake of our little viii
lape, left last week for several days
visit to Atlanta.
The cotton crops in this neighbor-
hood will be short, shorter, shortest,
but still we are all happy and cheeful,
Our farmers are gathering in good
supply of pears which beats six cent
cotton all around.
The closing exercises Of Miss Lila
Werts' school at Ridgeroad academy
will take place October 7th. Public
cordially invited to attend and bring
we'll filled baskets.
We had a good season of rain last
week and our people have been sowing
turnip seed not in the moon but IN the
ground. We are not much OF be-
lever in signs either in turnlps or
beats.
Mr.. J. II. P Crossson and daughter,
Miss Victoria, of Fredonia, are visiting
relatives and friends in and around our
little village.
Mrs. Pierce Wicker, of st. Phillips
community, who has been quite III
for some time has improved SO that
she Is abfe eseZepssaiii 2 while with her
mother, Mrs. Caroline C0nx8ssS SlalEssisSz fzzs3ais3Sz
ily of our little village. We hope she
may soon be restored to her health
again.
There was no preaching in the acad-
envy on Sunday afternoon as the Rev:
Mr.. McMorries was in attendance at
Presbytery. The next appointment
will be third Sunday afternoon IN
October.
Mr.. D. B. Cook informs US that he
had nice hog shot in his pasture
one night last week. The rogue or
rogues failed to get the hog butt was
left in a bad condition. The weapon
used was shot gun.
We sympathize with the good
people of Mt. Tabor community
who were visited by a desturuc-
tive cyclone on last Tuesday after
noon. The Mt. Tabor communi-
ty contains some of the most sub
stantial farmers of Newberry County
and owing to their heavy loss it is a
great blessing that no lives were lost.
Up to this time our quiet little viii
lage community has been richly blessed
from such destructive winds ind let US
each one pray to our creator that he
may continue rich blessings unto us.
We know not one day what another
may bring forth. SIGMA.

OUR PROSPERITY LETTER.

PROSPERITY, S. c., September 2o.-
Prosperity Literary Society will give a
nublic entertainment ut the academy
building on Monday night next.
The Prosperity Canning Company
las closed down for this season. Fruit
and vegetables have all disappeared.
The cotton crop is being harvested
and marketed Notwithstanding the low
price and short crop. The crop in this
Immediate vicinity is short at least So
per cent.
DR.. Luther and 4. NJ. Lester are now
in the Northern markets purchasing
their winter stock Of goods.
Messrs. T. L. Schumpert and A. NJ.
Lester have formed Il copartnership III
the mercantile business. They are a
strong team and will handle line Of
general merchandise.
When the voters of the Third Con-
gre Sional District chose t., ill the
place of our brilliant and able states
man, George Johnstone, with a presl-
dent of cotton mill, who had sunk
that institution just 81 900 in the short
space of four months, we stood abashed,
dumfounded, dazed. But when the
voters of the Second District stepped
down to the South Carolina peniten-
tiary, and there selected man to oc-
cupy the seat of the venerable states
man, George D. Tillman, then we
cried, Oh, shades of Calhoun, and
Hayne, and McDuffe!! can your bones
remain at rest in the grave? But then
this is all right, I reckon, for our lead
ers only a few weeks ago told US that
we want measures, not men, that party
fealty was paramount to qualifications,
and if taese things be true we ought to
be happy and serene. Our present
leaders tel! US it is right, and of course
if they say 80, it must be correct. 1t
cannot be otherwise. The plain duty
of US voters, is simply to obey without
asking questions. A voter should not
be so presumptious as to question the
instruction of our noble leaders. A
good soldier never questions an order
from his commanding officer, but he
obeys. This is right. Measures not
men; party fealty not personal qualih-
cations, must be our battle cry. 1t
won all along the line from 1866 to 1876.
Hear our leaders and abey. Next.

Mrs. Presslv Brown, of Columbia, is
visiting at Mr.. B. E. Julien's.
County Commissioner-elect Shockley
is preparing himself to enter upon the
new duties which are before him: the
first thing he did after being declared
nominated was to sell his bicycle, which
means no doubt that he will ride a
horse in his rounds when Installed.
A young friend said to US that it was
pleasant to form new friendships but
that he always regretted the parting.
True, and we quote for him:
"Oh saw ye not, fair Inez?
She came into the west,
To dazzle when the sun was down
And rob the world of rest!
X = .
"She took our daylight with her,
The smiles we loved the best,
With morning bushes on her cheeks,
And pearls upon her breast.
~ saw the lovely Inez
Descend toward the shore,
With band of noble gentlemen
And banners waved before.
sSome were bright and some were
gay,
And some were sad, ween,
For the gentle little lnez
May ne'er return again."

support him in the recent primaries.
