Whitm,re Gleanings.

This neighborhood has at last fresh.
ened up, thanks to the fine seasons we
have been having Of late. The farmers
are consequently in far happier frame
of mind. The corn and pea crops are
looking fine, and the hog crop is
better than it has been for years in this
section. So says the oldest inhabitant.
The farmers think it is in order to
have little fun before the busy cotton
picking season commences, therefore
to start the ball Messrs. Fant and Cam
erou will give a grand barbecue on
Saturday, September 1st, when two
match games Of baseball will be played
between Santuc and Whitmires, wind
ing up with dance for the young peo-
pie at Cameron's hail. Music will be
furnished by the Chester string band.
We hear that Mr.. J. H. Stokes, of
Santuc, has leased the Richards build
ing for five years and intends opening
Up general merchandise business on
September 1st.
A masonic lodge has been organized
here, and from all accounts will soon
have quite large membership. The
meetings are held in the masonic hall
every month over DR.. Hamilton &
Jeter's drug store.
The protracted meeting of the Bap-
tist church closed last Thursday morn
ing. The services were conducted by
Rev. J. D. Mahon, of Clinton, and Rev.
Vaughan, of Union, S. G. Good cor.
gregations assembled every day, and
much interest manifested.
The community was very much
shocked to hear of the sad death Of Mr.
James Matthewes, son of Mrs. Mat
tbews, proprietress of the Wbitmire
hotel. He died at Trenton on Thurs
day afternoon, and was buried on Fri
day at Williston, Barnwell County.
He had recently accepted position at
the rock quarries of Col. Coleman, in
Edgefeld.
Hard times are past, as evidenced by
the fact that DR.. Jeter has added gal,
liant grey to his stable, and by the
handsome new turnout driven by Mr.
J. S. Spearman.
Professor Harper has gone to Honea
Path for the present, and intends
studying law in Washington. We dc
not know who will be his successor as
teacher of the Whitmire school. Sev.

warded to the school board. II.

PROSPERITY LETTER.

PROSPERITY, August 2S-To-day's
election ought to be the choice of the
people. A machine is labor-saving
apparatus; political machine saves
thought as the machine does the think
ing for the people. At best, then, We
can only have the choice of machine.
The contest between Prosperity and
Monticello was triumph for the latter.
They played two games. The one on
Thursday evening was a good game,
but Prosperity was clearly not in it
from the beginning. But the best game
ever played on the Prosperity diamond
took place on Friday morning when
Monticello's batting took the shape of
sky balls and bid fair to send the balls
back to Fairfield through the air. The
fast into the hands of Monticello catch
ers that not before the fifth inning was
one score made for Prosperity. The
score stood S to i. Monticello then
played and completely shut out Timo-
thy Creek.
Rev. D. Tiiler, Mr.. J. B. Robertson
and probably others, have about COM
pleted arrangements 10 give Prosperity
another school. Mr.. Tiller says his
reason for making this move is found
in the fact that there are in the town
numerous persons who say Prosperity
High School is dying and his own OBJ
servation led him to the same conclu-
sion, and he thought it necessary to
provide a school for the education of
his own children. 1t seems that all our
people would like to know if these
things are well founded. Is the school
dying? The catalogue for last fall shows
an enrolment of 10, and while the
school closed its session with only about
half that number, some of the patrons
will remember that whooping cough
played havnc with the attendance the
latter half of the session.
We presume, however, that the
Board of Trustees will throw some
light on this subject.

intense. Mr.. Kinard was, perhaps, the

ISoecial TO New and Ceurier.7

Especial to New and Cenrier.l
WASHINGTON, August 2.-Judge
Izlar is going to make the race for re-
election to Congress from the 7th dis
trict. His determination in that direc-
ton was fixed some time ago, and with
in the past few days he has received
substantial endorsements from the best
elements of the Democratic party in
that district. He will not go into the
Reform" primary trap, which would
be sure political death, but he will
stand out in the open field when the
general election takes place and contest
every inch of ground with the Ike
form" candidate whoever he may be.
Judge Izlar will leave Washington
tomorrow after the final adjournment
Of Congress, and he will take charge Of
his own campaign and conduct it on
the most vigorous plan. It would be
futile for hn to subject himself and
friends to Il e cut and dried process
which will prevail at the reform"
primary, and his enemies had hoped
that be would surrender without a
struggle. He is not made of that kind
O stuff. He has won the admiration
and the esteem of the genuine Demo
Gratis in both houses of Congress during
his brief sojourn in Washington, and
they will watch his campaign with the
keenest interest. He is con6deat-af-
the support and encouragement Of the
true Democracy in the 7th district, and
be is prepared to abide by their deci-
sion at the general election. R. ". L.
