The farmers are taking advantage of
this beautiful weather. They are put
ting in good time every day. preparing
their land for the coming crop. l hear
some OF them say that they are ready to
plant corn ana will commence next week.
! The farmers certainly ought to make
their w corn and other produce at
home this time, if they don't make any
cotton at all. This is a step in the right
direction and we hope the rest Of the
counties will follow in the same road.
OF course. they aim to plant some cotton,
and it a surplus crop. so they won't be
forced to sell it at the reduced price
! which confronts the farmers at present.
The farmers in this community have
reduced their fertilizer bill this year
about t~wo-thirds, and l heard one say he
intended to commence now and make his
own fertilizer for the next year. Hope
the rest will follow his example.

MI. Smith Explains the Position {
Richland Democratic Club No. 9.
Sr,rcA 6 e. March ii. 1S9.

SENECA, ). C., AarcA IA, 1917.
EDITORS COURIER: My attention has
been called to a sentence in the Richland
correspondence in your last issue, which
I desire to correct. In the communica-
ton referred to your correspondent says:
Gin the campaign of 1890 We who saw
fit to oppose Mr.. Tillman were actually
robbed of our representation in our
County Conventions"
This is a serious charge against the
Oconee County Democratic Convention,
if reference is had to the failure OF The
s:Richland Club No. 2" which was
refused representation in the County
Convention of 1890. Idesire to give the
public a few facts in relation to "Cluo
No. 2' and its out-voted membership.
When the regular Richland Democratic
Club met IS members answered to their
names. Mr.. Thomas II. DENLY was
elected President and Mr.. ]. P. Stribling
Secretary. Mr.. NJ. B. Dendy offered a
resolution endorsing B. R. Tillman for
Governor. Forty-three favored the rest.
luton and ten opposed it. Delegates to
the County Convention were elected as
usual. = BY some mischance the usual
resolutions. ordering the publication OF
the proceedings, were forgotten an1 the
Secretary did not send them to either OF
the county papers. 1t was reported that
some of the minority requested the Pre-
sident not to publish anything: but
another member sent the resolutions
passed and the vote thereon to your
paper. In a few days the "No. 2" was
organized and a delegate and alternate
to the County Convention elected. The
alternate. Nj. w. H. Hughs, attended
said convention. Thus both Clubs
had delegates, and the question was
raised as to whether the "No. q dele
gate should be admitted. a Committee
on Credentials, consisting Of one mem
Der from each Club, was appointed
The committee decided to recommend
that the delegate from R'chland CLUB
No. ? .sbe not seated" said delegate
concurring. DR.. l. L. McCurry was
Chairman of this committee. The con-
vention unanimously ustained the
report.
hope, Messrs. Editors, you will place
these facts before your readers that they
may Judge as to whether or not Rich
land Club No. - was cheated out Of its
representation. Respectfully,
JOHN L. SMITH.

DEAR COURIER: We notice that the
Richiand Democratic Club No. , was
omitted in the call for a meeting of the
County Executive Committee. which was
appointed for yesterday, the 18th. Just
why this was done We cannot tell, but
we wish to state thati if it was intentional
.here seems 10 be no disposition on the
part of tIe Oconee Democracy to try to
baymonixe our past political differences.
Ever since the opening of the campaign
OF lSS1 the minority have been treated
with as much contempt as if Republi-
csals by the majority (fcllow-Democrats),
and many OF Year readers will remember
that IN order 70 relieve this unpleasant
ness Club No. > was organized. 1t may
be dlaJ tie County Chairman thought
we would not want two distinct Clubs
this year. hut unless we are to have a
primary election for nominating State
officers. we propose 70 have representa-
and. OF course, Club No.
zanized for that purpose. In
II thatisnccessary to restore
ein our democratic family is to sub
mitthe nomiHavion OF State officers to a
primary election. Let the man receiving
the highest number OF votes.9 il is only
o,5y. be declay1the nominee, and we do
not believe tL?frc is a Democrat in the
State who w0Gld not support in the gen
cral election n so nominated. and do II
cheuraiIg. We hope TO see in this weeks
paper hore callsfora County Convention
for TIE purpose of sending delegates 70
t4e state Convention of conservative
Democrats. TO be held on the 18th instant.

WESTMINSTER, S. c., March "A, 1892.
DEAR COURIER: No doubt you and
your readers would like to hear some
thing from here. Our town is moving
on quietly and hopefully, notwithstand-
ing the hard times and political excite
ment. AS yet we have no declared can
didates down this way, though a few
prospective ones. Our town is growing
gradually. We have had several addi-
tons to our population this winter from
Spartanburg, and others are to follow
soon.
Mr.. ". j. Porter, of Gainesville, Ca,
formerly of this place, will open up this
week here a nice stock of staple and
fancy groceries. He will occupy a part
of the building with Quillian & Cox, our
druggists. We give VIII a cordial well
come to our town, as we do all good peo-
pie seeking a home among us.
The boys of our brass band, under the
skilful training of Professor Floyd, Of
Fairbern. Ca, are fast securing a reputa-
Jon as musicians. On Saturday night
they visited the Quillian House, ndfrom
The upper verauda ~discoursed sweet
music, which was much enjoyed by
many OF our citizens.
Rev. G. r. Shaffer preached a fine SER
mon Sunday morning to ar attentive con-
gregation. He is much liked by all our
people, and his m are greatly
enjoyed.
Our energetic little friend, j. D. NJ.
billiard. returned last week from Charles
ton. where he vent to carry the citizens
of the City by the Sea some fine noun
tain beef. He reports the market quite
duh and weak.
Our stirring blacksmith, John E.
Gaines, and the Tugaloo Iron Works are
manufacturing some cotton planters for
some commercial travellers of Atlanta,
Ga. 1t is said to be the best planter
extant.
Our merchants seem to be doing a
good business, both for cash and on time.
The lumber and Single business here
is still large.
Our doctors have been quite busy for
some time. There has been cons1dera-
bic sickness around us. but it seems on
the decline. DR.. Quilliaa has been called
quite often to Easley and surrounding
country this winter. Our bachelor doc
tor, (that was) since he had the good for
tune to get a good wife, has been kept so
busy at his practice that he has but lit
tie time to stay at home, to his regret,
no doubt. DR.. MOLLY is IN the 50 all the
time.
Our city fathers have set cut shades
and are putting our streets in order,
ready for the spring campaign.
SO with our three churches, two hotels,
ten stores. four blacksmith shops, foun-
dry. carriage and wagon shops, and one
of the best schools in the State, and hosts
Of GOOD citizens, we feel that we arc on
the upgrade.
