- The State Democratic Executive conf
mittee meets in Columbia this (Tuesday)
evening, to decide, in the first place, as to
whether or not a primary election shall
be held for the purpose Of nominating a
United States senator for the ''long term,"
and in the event such primary shall be
determined upon, as is likely, to arrange
a state campaign. Quite a number Of
people have made suggestions to the
effect that canvass Of the entire state is
unnecessary that with few meetings
in each congressional district, and the
speeches published in the newspapers,
there will be enough of it to warrant the
people in casting intelligent votes. Chair
man Tompkins, Of the Democratic Ex-
ecutive committee, however, has called
attention to the fact that the constitution
of the party requires meetings to be held
i'm each one of the counties, and if a
campaign shall be decided upon at all,
there is no other way for it than the hold
ing of 40 meetings. The probability is
that the meetings will start with the first
week in July, and continue Oh until about
the middle Of August.

Mr.. James S. Gourley died at his home
near here, on the 18th instant, aged 65
wears. He was one of the old soldiers
who Joined the "Jaspers'' under Captain
Seabrook. After remaining with the
company one year, he joined the Sixth
regiment band, afterward famous as one
of the finest bands in General Lees army,
and, without doubt, the best in Long
streets corps. Since the war Mr.. Gour-
ley has lived the life of quiet, peaceable
citizen and enjoyed the respect of every
| body. He leaves a widow and seven
children. He was buried at New Bethel
church, the funeral services being con-
Quoted by Rev. J. E. Mahatfey.
And one by one the old soldiers are
passing "over the river to rest in the

borhood on the 18th of April, 1861, only
three remain. They are Captain John d.

COULDN'T BE BULLDOZED.

A well-known citizen of Yorkville tells
a funny story of member of the town
council. He mentioned the name of the
member; but that is hardly necessary for
the purpose of illustrating the point in
volved.
The citizen referred to is a bicyclist
who does not think that the wheelmen
have received the consideration to which
they are entitled at the hands of the coun-
Gil, and was arguing the matter with the
warden. The warden had referred to
the proposed meeting of the wheelmen
tonight, as an attempt to "bulldoze' the
council The bicyclist insisted that such
was not the intention and went on to say !:
snow, here; suppose we should be
able to convince you and the other mem
bers of the council that you have acted
hastily, without due deliberation; and,
suppose we should make it clear to you
that we have certain rights, the granting
of which would be no Inconvenience or
Injustice whatever to the general public,
you would, at least, take the matter under
advisement, would you not?"
"I'll he switched if I'll let you bulldoze
