was their Sabbath and they sill had on
their Sunday clothes. A very good con
gregation of nice looking people we're at
tentively listening to the preacher. The
tent, which has seating capacity Of 250,
was well provided with seats. Under the
tent where preaching was going on there
was also bed, combination bicycle and
other useful articles. Near the large tent
was smaller one which appeared to BE-
used as a kitchen and dining room. 1t
was provided with cooking stove. The
preachers are nice looking, and are said to
receive nine dollars week for their work.
They are pleasantly and comfortably To-

The State Campaign meeting will taxa
place in Anderson next Tuesday, 7ta
inst, and We hope peace and good order
will reign throughout the day. Several of
the meetings have been disgrace to the
State. but we hope such may not be the
case in our city. Some of the speakers may
say some very bitter and unjust things
to provoke the people, but silent contempt
will be the best answer for the jeers and
abuse. Each and every speaker should
have respectful hearing, and those per-
SONS who do not want to hear any partlcr-
lar speaker shoald 60 away and not re-
turn until the speaker has finished. a
