Old Tommy Aull, one of your old
slavery time darkies, MIR. Editor, died
of dropsy on Saturday, the 9th inst.
Mr.. and Mrs. Wicker, of Pomaria,
were visiting relatives in this section
last Sunday. r..
There will be communion services at
Bachman Chapel on the first Sunday
in August. Preparatory services on
Saturday previous at II a. m.
So Kinard was elected principal,
with W. NJ. Bobb as alternate, to rep
resent Bachman Chapel congregation
at the Newberry Lutheran Confer
enee, which convenes at st. Luke's
Church, embracing the fifth Sunday of
this month.
Well, the primary election is all
over and Mr.. Mower has gotten the
nomination. This gives the Conserva-
tive party victory, which we suppose
they feel proud of. Now We hope that
everything will 60 on smoothly and
lovely, and the Herald and News
still continue to advocate peace and
harmony. This was quite peaceable
election; just as they all should be.
But this is in no wise sign that the
Reform party is weakening. The far
mers have been bound up among the
grass so tightly for the past few weeks
that they have had no possible time to
spare for politics. We firmly believe
that instead of this defeat weakening
the Reform party, it will only be
means of bringing them closer to-
gether. Not bit of danger of the
farmers disorganizing; they cannot af-
ford anythingof the kind so long as
there are so many combinations organ
lied against them.
We thought little chastisement
would do that young man some good !.
who has been throwing out some or
his Summers among the young ladies.
But it: seems that he is determined to
carry out full share of slang. He
has been telling the young ladies how
he loves -coWcumber pickles and ing
uns cut up over beans, but is not very
fond of tomathses. He has thrown
out q ioedarter now that will stop
some of the girls and put them to
thinking; be tells them that he has
fine patch of lasses cane growing.
It seems as if we are to have a little
polly tics and few barbecues every
year. It looks like they have the cart
before the horse this time; the polly
tics have ripened and been pulled, but
the barbecues are just now in full
bloom. You must come down next
Saturday, Mr.. Editor, to the Epps
barbecue at the old Wilson place, near
Bachman Chapel. Bring a few of
your politicians with you, and If we
cannot get up little revival on poll
tics we will turn it into regular old
time gooseneck pulling.
With nine goosenecks in one drove,
mixed with few gander necks, i've
in another drove, with w. in the lead,
we have " hipped old general green a
fair fight and now stand ready 10 say,
like the mau who came down stairs
after his wife had killed the bear,
saint we horses" .,
st. Paul's congregation elected the
following officers on the first Sunday
in June: Elders, J. A. c. Kibler, J. Il.
Livingstone, J. D. Shelley, w. S.
Sybt, J. J. Hipp, w. P. Koon; Dea-
cons, J. C. Aull, A. B. Piester, T. P.
Richardson, H. S. B. Killer, j. W.

The Jolly Street Sundsy-school met
on the first Sunday and partially re-
organized by electing Mr.. P. B. Eli
sor superintendent, and J. w. Werts
assistant superintendent. The school
will meet on next Sunday afternoon
and elect teachers.
There has been long talk of consol"
idation between the patrons of Ridge
road and Gallman Academy schools.
Up to now it was all Of no avail. But
our efficient new School Commissioner
carrying into effect the new school
law-says we must come together;
and Ridgeroad and Gallman Academy
schools will from now on only be
Known as a thing Of the past. This
district has been laid off. The lines
run with Curtis creek on the southeast
and Cannon's creekOn the northeast.
It is also connected with the John
stone Academy line on the west side.
At first this arrangement seemed to
give perfect satisfaction, but like most
everything else that happens nova
DAYS, it sprung leak in awhile and
there was some kicking. But we
are proud to say that that leak is about
stopped up and we are going together
like men, hand ia hand, laying aside
all back difference and working for the
educational interest of our children;
and believe in the course of u while
We will have one among the best coun-
try schools in Newberry County.
Yes, let US have peace and harmony,
and whenever we work awhile in the
line of unity we will find ourselves to
be q prosperous people. w.
