I'M BE MR. DABBs.


In to days issue space is
given to communication from Mr..
E.W. Dabbs. criticising our report Of
She proceedings of the County Ex.
ccntive Committee. Mr.. Dabbs
claims that we did him an injustice
"a the report. and he may honestly
believe that we did not give him
space commensurate with the impor-
xance of his remarks, but. as we en-
deavored to give fair and impartial
SEMINARY Of the proceedings, and still
Believe that we did SO, we stand by
the report as printed. To refresh the
memory of cur readers we quote what
vas said concerning Mr.. Dabbs' re-
marks:
..Mr. Dabbs disclaimed the wish to do
Saiussice to any one or to prevent the
fullest and most exact justice to all
parties. he offered his motion as the
best means Of settling the matter, for
SC would be impossible to 60 behind the
sesurns of the sworo managers, ap.
goiotea by the committee. without lead
aog to endless trouble and confusion
aad being the means OF doing greater
iaIussice than the acceptance of the
Sasurns on their face would entail
compare this with other portions
lsof the report. and il will be seen that
Nc Dabbs was reported as fully as
others who spoke.
We joia with Mr.. Dabbs in re-
gretsing that he did not '.put in writ
sng and thereby make part Of the
sscords the reasons why in my (hisJ
judgment the committee could not
20 behind the returns" Had he
done so there would not be excuse
for recpeniDg the case and introduc-
5ng an amended argument. With due
Difference to Mr.. Dabbs, we submit
Chat in his communication he has ad-
Eaaced arguments and made state
menss that we have no record OF or
any recollection of having heard made
.eazriag the session of the committee,
sgiiz:: that Earle precinct was not
sapened until 10 O'Clock; that ali

II is true. as Mr.. Dabbs says, that

the challenged votes, but a motion

The consolidation OF the Three Y. 8
railroad with the South Carolina and
Georgia system removes ali hope
of the extension of the
former road from Camden &c this city.
The Sumter and Camden road will
never be built, unless by an indepen
dent company, and that, we fea7, is
not to be hoped for, as 40 indepen.
dent line would not be self sustaining,
owing to the fact that the expense CT
operating it would be out of all pro
portion to the earnings, sinceit would
be almost wholly dependent upon
local business The dream that Sum
ter would some day be on the main
line of great western and deep
water railway system has vanished,
and it is now more important than
ever before that those who are inter.
ested in the future Of Sumter should
bestir themselves to promote the con-
struction of the Sumter and Wateree
railroad. This road offers the only
feasible outlet for Sumter, and the only
one of which there is the slightest
probability of being built.

The Worcester spy. [volume] (Worcester, Mass.) 1898-1904, 1898-10-01

We would like to have the people Of
Worcester read this letter coming from
Mr.. Graves of Northampton, a chemist
well known and Of many years expert
ence. He writes as follows:
MY opinion Of Vinol and the good 1t
will do is that it is the greatest discovery
Of the age. - :.
that no harm is ever accomplished when
it is used.
''Cod liver OIL in its old form, to be
sure would often do good, but when it
did ii did good in spite of itself. The
reason that in some cases it was benefit
cial was that the really valuable medicine
which was part of 1t was SO truly efficient
that it was able to overcoEle the obnox-
ious and stomach disturbing oil which en-
veloped it.
TN most cases, however, valuable as
these remedial features were, they were
impotent to counteract the harm done by
the oil. Right here is where Vinol' s
great benefit becomes apparent You
have separated the active medicinal priil-
ciples found in the cod S liver entirely
from the fat. For this reason you have
no injurious parts to overcome. You
do have the medicine that you. desire to
do good What is more, you have sue
ceeded, by putting this medicine In de-
licious, mild wine, in giving to the public
in Vinol something that is positively en-
joyable to take. The patient, because OF
its peculiar medicinal properties, finds in
builder and flesh maker, a blood en-
richer tissue creator and stomach
regulator.
ttOther chemists to whom | have talked
In regard to Vinol agree with me fully
that II Is the most wonderful discovery

TATAsslT,s BEST.
Farewell to the Lake Season Was Most
Enjoyable affair.

The social season at the summer
home Of the Tatassit Canoe Club endea
last night with one of the most brilliant
and pleasant parties of the season. The
house and grounds were tastefully dec
GRATED for the occasion, the decorations
IN the house being especially attractive.
All the rooms, and especially the large
| assembly room, were attractiVely dress
| ed in beautiful flowers, arranged by a
committee consisting Of Mr.. and Mrs.
II. A. LANCE, Mrs. F. A. Hyde and Mrs.
Charles Allen. The flowers principally
used were hydrangeas, nasturtiums.
roses and salvias, and they beautified
the room beyond description
The members of the club and guests
arrived at the house early in the even
ing, and were received by the house
| committee, which had charge Of the
affair. At 8 o'clock the guests repaired
| to the large assembly room, where ia
| bles were placed the entire length of
the room, and until 7.3O o'clock enjoyed
! a course dinner, which was q credit to
1 the clubs steward. At O'Clock dane
| ing to music Of Abbott's orchestra was
| commenced, and continued until 10. 80
o'clock. At intermission a pleasing en-
| tertainment of vocal selections was fur
nished by the Clover quartet The
| WUlcD
| were especially chartered carried the
party to Lincoln park about IL o'clock
where special electrics were taken to
the city. The whole affair was unsur-
passed by anything ever conducted by
the club, and was a browning triumph
to the seasons pleasures
| The formal closing Of the house will
| occurr tomorrow, when the members
will enjoy a dinner at 23o O'clock. Il
has been the annual custom of the club
| to close its season with a regatta, which
has always been productive of much
pleasure, but an innovation will BIZ
made this year, and the closing exer.
cises will be of a quiet nature.
The next meeting Of the club will
be held Monday night at the Lincolr
house, and it is likely that some actor
in regard to a reproduction Of ''Blacl
and White, or Othello All Gone Wrong.
which was so highly entertaining las
winter, win be taken.

THE YELLOW PRESS.
shafter Says Their Attacks on Him Are
Outrageous.

Outrageous.
Nashville, Tenn, Sept. 90.-Postmas-
ter Willis received a letter from Gen
shafter today, dated Camp Wikoff, Sep
TENDER &c, in which he says of news
paper attacks upon him.
THE attacks Of the yellow press upon
me and others of the administration are
simply outrageous. The articles are
filled with untruths, beginning with the
one that / was responsible for the
equipment of the army with Spring
field rifles, which you and every other
sensible man knows is lie The be-
havior of some Of the yellow journal
lists was so outrageous before we even
got into Cuba that had to put my
hand on them, and after we got into
Cuba it was still worse. Their letters
are the result Of personal spite. If l
had come back with defeated army
there might have been some excuse for
their talk, but having commanded one
Of the most successful campaigns OF
modern military history 1t is simply an
outrage.
Il am very fond Of Evans (pension
commissioner, and am very glad that
you are defending him. Some of the
G. A. r. are simply unbearable, and
seem TO think if they can't have the
treasury turned over to them they are
being defrauded.
Very truly yours,
