a very favorable influence. Foreign pur-
chases were unusually large for half holi-

Children's Day at Bethel.

Mr.. EDITOR: Please allow me
to make mention of childrens day
held with Bethel church last Sat-
urday. We had very pleasant oc-
casion of it, the children did re-
markahly well with their pieces.
Miss jamie Quattlebaum deserves
special mention for her excellent
piece entitled "only a dream. We
had host of candidates with us,
and had the pleasure of listening
to Mr.. Simkins and Mr.. Evans.
They gave US some good, sound ad-
vice. In going home some of the
mothers got their babies mixed and
got about half way home before
they found out their mistake.
Only one thing caused the day
not to he one of unalloyed pleas.
ure and enjoyment to all, and that
was all accident which happened
to Mrs. Carrie Clegg and two of
her children. The horse ran away
and threw them out Cher daugb-
ter Miss Bessie Clegg getting
badly hurt, she was not conscious
for two hous afterwards,-glad to
say she is improving now, and
hope sho will soon be all right

Fire Losses Paid Promptly.

About two months since Mrs.
Annie l.. Holson, living in this
town, had the misfortune to have
her dwelling destroyed by fire.
Luckily, however, she held poll
CIV for $4O0 on her dwelling in the
Pennsylvania Fire Insurance Com
pany, in Mr.. D. R. Durisoe's agen-
cy, and on Saturday last it was
Mr.. DIS pleasure to hand her
check for the full amount of her
Policy:
And on Thursday of last week
Mr.. James R. Williams, of the
Gilgal section, was the happy re-
cipient cf a check for $1495 from
the Manchester Fire Insurance,
Mr.. D. R. Durisoe, Agent, in full
of loss incurred by the burning of
his dwelling and furniture in
April last.
Both OF these companies-the
Pennsylvania and the Manches-
ter-are old, strong and reliable
companies and pay their losses
promptly; and we cheorfully COM
mend them to those of of our peo-
pie desiring fire protection.

Mr.. Mette Tries the Case.
INTRODUCES HIS Own WITNESSES,
SELECTS HIS Own JURY, SITS AS
JUDGE IN HIS Own CASE AND, AS
A MATTER OF FACT IF Nor OF
LAW, CoNv1crs THE PREACHER.

Editor Adcertiser /: If we do not
get free silver at Chicago, it is our
duty to bolt. This is 80 apparent,
that it seems waste of Tina to
talk about IT. 1t is hardly neces-
sary to prove a self-evident propo-
sition. You enter into co-partner-
ship with A and B. You soon find
that their methods, if persisted in,
will run the business into the
ground. Yeu demonstrate with
them, and try to get them to pur-
sue different policy, but they re-
fuse. Heve you not the undenia-
BILE right to withdraw from the
firm, and to form a co-partnership
with G and D, who are prospering,
and in whose methods you have
confidence? 1 dare any one to de-
ny that. We now have political
co-partnership with Mr.. Yankee,
who is running our business, and
we propose to Withdraw from the
firm, and to form co-partner-
ship with Mr.. Western Man, whom
we consider more honest and reli-
able. Is lhere any harm in that?
But / have another illustration,
and a better one still. You are a
member of an orthodox church.
Perhaps you helped to organize it.
1t was organized for the purpose of
worshiping God. You go into a
Conference of the church, and find
majority in favor of repudiating
the worship of God, and in favor
of worshipping the devil. You
pick up your hat and start out. A
good brother comes to you and
says: "Since you came into this
Conference, you are bound by its
action. Don't you believe in ma
jority rule ? Stay with us and
worship the devil about four years,
and it may be by that time we will
have things our way again" If l
mistake not, you would look him
straight in the eye AMI say: Ell
ther you are a fool, or you take me
for one!" and you would continue
your progress toward the door.
Politically speaking, the mug
wumps are the only decent, res
pectable people in the country. If
it were not for the mugwumps, the
political party in power would al
ways be in power, unless the other
party conld raise the most chill
dren.

The Edgefield ,angers Re-or-
ganized.----B Barbecue
at Meriwet ser Hall
July Ind.

DEAR ADVERTISER Cuba must
be free but however all right it
may be, we have nothing to do
with it. Let US busy ourselves
with graver and more important
matters. There was organized OF
rather re-organized, at Cheatham's
Store in Meriwether, in March last,
that one time illustrious troop of
horse-the "Edgefeld Rangers.
All Edge6eld knew the Rangers
under the leadership of Capt. Jno.
A. Butler. At the organization
Capt. Butler was again called to
the command. Walter Cheatham,
another old Ranger, was elected
1st Lieut.. with J. 3. Shaw and
Thos. H. Briggs second ieuten-
ants. Several old members aro to
be found in ranks, aud the drill
shows they have not forgotten
tfair cunning.
The company has dec ,ded to
call attention to their existence
by giving a big barbecue, picnic,
and dance OH the second of July
at the Meriwether Hall, and the
public is earnestly advised TO be
present. Things are never done
by halves in the Meriwether pre-
cinct, and they wont be this time.
So come everybody, come regard
less of the weather, come Cuba or
no Cuba, come and laugh and go
home and you will live longer.
