Fall and Winter Fashions.

The time is ncw at hand when the
ladies are beginning to reple pish
their wardrcbes with fall and winter
apparel and they are naturally anx-
ious to find out where they can get
the most goods for the least money.
In anticipation of furnishing all
the ladies of Lexington with their
fall and winter goods, ". H. Mopck-
ton, Jr, manager ofthe famous Globe
Dry Goods establishment, of Colrm
bia, has taken advantage of the low
market which prevailed during the
summer months to lay in tremend-
Gus stock of just such goods as will
tickle woman's vanity and please
her fastidious taste and at such
prices as will make bargain hunters
90 into ecstasies of delight. A part
of his stock is now in and placed on
the shelves awaiting the inspection
Of the purchasing public, embracing
the latest and most fashionable
weaves in plsids and woolen goods
and in fact everything connected
with lady;s whole toilet from a
paper of pins up to the finest and
most delicate colors in silks and
satins. His dress fabrics are the
yerv cream of the fall fashions and
such an expert has he become in the
selection of goods in this line that no
woman is considered well dressed by
Dame Fashion unless the goods were
purchased at the Globe. He has all
the novelties in trimmings. He leads
the van in men and boys clothing,
furnishings, shoes and hats and in
these lines he cannot nor will not be
undersold. His establishment is q
veritable bee hive of bargains in the
newest and nobbiest notions, under
vests for men, women and children.
When you need anything in bis
line you should 60 to the Globe Dry
Goods establishment and get your
moneys worth.

The President has evidently been
given startling but true situation
of the condition of affairs as they
really exist in the Philippines and he
has at last been convinced that the
work cf subjugating the Insurgents
on those islands is no child's play
and that to do so requires both men
and means with plenty of ammuni-
ton and endurance. The edited
reports of Otis, with such a color
ing of roseate hue as to lead one to
suppose that the Americans were on
picnic, or holiday excursion have
doubtless been discredit and the
President has awakened from his
dream of inactivity to realization of
the stupendousness of the under
taking and the successfulness of it's
ending.

to our assistance in a way that only

when money was scarce, they rebuilt

By reference to the vote polled in
the recent election for State Senator
from this county, it will be seen that
there was only small number OF
voters who had interest enough in it
to 60 to the polls and vote. This
lukewarmness on the part of the
voters can be easily explained. The
fight for Senator was made in the
primary when DR.. Crosson received
the nominations and his election was
conceded to be as certain as the dawn
of day, and consequently everybody
lost all interest in the election which
was to make him the lawful Senator,
therefore, they, the voters, did not
turn out as they would have done
had there been the smallest element
of doubt in his election. This being
true, it does not however, excuse the
Democratic vote, or relieve him from
his oath taken when he cast his vote
in the Democratic primary-to sup
port the nominee of the primary
from neglecting his duty and failing
to do what he promised to do in the
primary election. The price OF
liberty is eternal vigilance and the
success Of the Democratic nominees
depends largely upon the watch
fuiness of the members of the Demo
cratic party. From the vote polled
on Tuesday Of last week we learn
the lesson that had there been 8
secret effort, sprung only on the day
of the election, to defeat the Demo
cratic nominee. it would have proba
be been successful, owing to the
Indifference and lukewarmness OF the
voters. Let US in the future bs
more careful in the discharge OF oul
duty, which we owe to our party
our selves and the successful nomi
nees of the party.
