Rad POLITICS..

The democratic convention, which
met at Davis, for this district, was
guilty of erroneous and really unwise

against their neighbors of Jefferson,
which county is their only hope in
this district. They threw their votes
to Mr.. McGraw, who had been a

led upon Judge Lucas of Jefferson,
who had not been making a strad-

an outrage, from an opponents and
an Independent standpoint. When
Berkeley county democrats want

The street digger, crusher and
roller has been put in operation on
Queen street. The work looks we'll,
but, in our opinion, 1t will not stand
the heavy hauling on this business
street. The experience of other
towns runs that way. Usually, brok-
en- stones, that will go through a
two-inoh ring, are ground up in a
few months, and this little bit of
covering cannot stand the great BUSH
ness requirements. Vitriolized brick
would last from forty to sixty years

the other might be found useful on
