WITHIN THE TOWN.

Pursuant to notices posted at the in
stance of the town council, meeting
was held in the courthouse last We'd
nesday night for the purpose of select
ing a nominee for the position of trus,
tee of the graded school, vice DR.. A.
Y. Cartwright, declined. Mr.. w. D.
Glenn was. selected.
Mr.. T. B. McClain is still making
rapid progress in the work of getting
his cotton factory in operation; but he
does not make any promises as to
when he will get his machinery started.
That, however, will not be long. The
boiler room is just being completed at
this time. The big iron smokestack,
about 5 feet in diameter and some 60
feet long, has been riveted together
and is ready to 60 in position. Look
ing over the situation in general way,
it appears that there is not a great
deal more work to be done before
everything is ready for the "wheels to
90 around"

But as to crispness, flavor, ETC., Mr..
Dobson's product is equal to the best
He has another crop on the way this
year, and if he fails to make success
of it, it will he about the first time be
has met with such bad luck.
Major James F. Hart returned on
Wednesday from Newberry, where, on
last Tuesday, he delivered Memorial
day address to large audience. The
exercises of the day consisted of q
monster procession, decoration of the
graves of the Confederate dead ard
two addresses; one by Major Hart and
one by Prof. J. P. Kinard, of Winthrop
The addresses were delivered in the
Newberry opera house, which was
crowded. Altogether something like
1000 people participated in the exer'
cises. Major Hart came back much
pleased with Newberry and the way
the people do things over there.
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1899-05-27

The increase this year can he estimated
in the millions, and the total receipts
will range between $50, 0,OOO and
s1OO,OOO,OOO. The returns so far re-
ceived from the postofices indicate
that as the result of the coming ad-
iustment, in the neighborhood of 100
postofices will be lifted from the fourth
class to the third class, the lowest
class of presidential Offices. About
the same number will 60 from the
third class to the second class, and
quite a number will be promoted into
the first class. Every year a few Of
fees drop hack into the next class be-
low; but this year such Offices will be
very few. Some of them make tre-
mendous advances one year and lose
them the next. This is often due to
the establishing in the vicinity of pat
ent medicine firms or other industries
which use the mails largely. At times
they send out more mail matter than
at others and the receipts of the office
are correspondingly increased. Then
the firms cease advertising for awhile
and the receipts drop off: This was
noticeable in the case of Lowell last
month, when the circular advertising
of firm there sent the receipts up 200
per cent. more than those for the cor
responding month of 1898.

Mr.. #. M. Dobson has been several
times mentioned as one of the most
successful local celery growers. So
far as the reporter knows, he is the
pioneer in this section. He is still a.
it, does practically all the labor in con
nection with the cultivation of the
plants himself, and always succeeded
in making a crop. The product pro-
badly does not come up to the kalama-
ZOO standard as to bleaching. This is
due to the fact that the plat of ground
used is not exactly up to requirements.

and, really, this seems to be calculated
to give better satisfaction than arbitra-
ry selection from anywhere.

- Iron is generally conceded to be
the business barometer of the world,
and when iron goes up there is hope
for Improvement in all manner of in
dustries. During the past few weeks
and still, iron has been advancing very
rapidly. Quotations on iron products
are usually made with clause pro-
viding for acceptance by wire, and the
intending purchaser is given to under
stand that he cannot be assured OF
such prices tomorrow" There is no
doubt that the general business situa-
ton is improving all over the country
but at the same time this section is not
likely to be Immediately affected. If
better times are coming they will be
here later on.

HAMPTON AS A MAN.
The Old Statesman Loves His Fellowman
More Than Himself.

More Than himself.
Commenting on The ENQUIRER S
remarks about General Hampton's
sympathetic kindness to his fellow
man, the Columbia State of yesterday
had the following:
"THE ENQUIRER is right-'there
was never a more generous man in
this state If he had not been gener-
GUS he would now have ample provis-
ion for his old age. For during the
last two decades he has received sala-
ries aggregating very large sum; so
large a sum that an ordinarily selfish
and saving man could have set aside a
little fortune from the proceeds.
"But none has been saved. 1t is all
gone. How was it spentP Not on
himself. Few men in high Office have
ever lived so frugally as Wade Hamp-
ton. He has allowed himself no lux
uries, has had no expensive habits, has
not speculated nor invested his sur
plus. There is only one inference from
these facts, and that is that the bulk
of his earnings have gone to others.
And it is easy for those who know him
we'll to surmise how it has gone, though
they will never have confirmation of
their theory from Hampton's lips.
"Other senators, other men in Office,
have ordinarily used their influence,
and sometimes their means, to aid
those who could in turn aid them. In
giving assistance to others they have
considered first of all whether this ex-
penditure of time or money would
bring them political returns. Not so
with Hampton. We speak from per-
sonal observation when we say that he
gave the preference, apparently by sys.
tenn, to those without influence, the
last people of all who could reward him
with more than thanks. If there were
a poor woman who sought an Office,
Hampton would work for her as he
would not do for a strong politician.
Many and many a one did he get places
for in the departments. If there were
a Negro who had been faithful in war
or peace to the white people, he could
90 to Hampton with the full assurance
that he would spare no pains to get
him work. We have seen him get out
of his sick bed and 60 to listen patiently
and kindly to the opportunities of office
seekers who would not be given mo-
ment's thought by "practical politi-
cians." We have known him to walk
painfully day after day to the depart
ments to advance the fortunes of peo-
pie who from the politicians stand
point were mere nonentities.
"No doubt he was often imposed up
on by the unworthy but no expert
ence of this sort should change the
rule he had fixed for himself-to help
himself-to help those who seemed
most to need help.
"The time has come when we must
think for him as he has not thought
for himself, and provide for him as
being Wade Hampton, an open-heart-
ed, handed gentlemau-he has
not provided for himself. In this we
consult not his pleasure but ours, and
do our duty TO ourselves no less than
to him."

TRIRIITE TO HAMPTON.

The following extract from Con-
federate memorial address delivered
by Jas. B. Bell, Esq, at Salem church,
on last Saturday, is printed at the es-
pecial request of people who heard
and endorse it:
"Among all the true sons of South
Carolina, one form stands conspicuous
No fear blanched his cheeks, no dan,
ger daunted his courageous soul. His
very presence impaired courage, bis
very eye enthusiasm. Unawed by
power, unbribed by honor, he stood in
the midst of the perils that surrounded
him, as brave as Paul before the san
hedrim, ready for bonds or death ; true
as the Spartans at Thermopyle, as
eloquent as Calhoun. AS we now
look back upon that struggle, his figure,
above all others, fixes our admiring
gaze; his crested helmet waves high
where the battle is 6ercest, the pure
rays of the sun reflected from his gilt
tering shield are not purer than the
fires which burn in the breast it covers.
His clarion voice rang out louder than
the din Of battle; like the bugle blast
of highland chief, it resounded over
hill and mountain glen summoning bis
clan to the defense of his home and
liberty, and thrilled every heart and
nerved every arm. 1t was the form
and voice of Hampton !"
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1899-05-27

- There is very general activity in
railroad building throughout the south
Quite number of important projects
have been decided upon and Others
are under contemplation. 1t is the
old established syndicates that are al
the bottom of the activity. They are
looking to the improvement and fur
ther development of their property
New corporations are not doing q
great deal of work or even talk, and
the old corporations are not doing as
much talk themselves as is being done
about them. They are merely fencing
with each other for any and every adj
vantage that presents.
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1899-05-27
Referring to the article in the las

- Referring to the article in the last
issue of THE ENQUIRER on the SUBJ
iect of eligibility of school teachers,
one of the trustees calls attention to
the fact that in so far as the article
gave out the idea that the trustees
had officially considered the question
of discriminating against local teach
ers, it was misleading. The matter,
so the trustee says, has never been up
in the board for formal discussion. In
dividual trustees, however, believe
that the best interest of the school
calls for resolution discriminating
against the employment of local teach
ers. In this issue, a citizen suggests
the idea of competitive examination
as the best solution of the question

GERMAN BAPTIsTs.-The German

GERMAN BAPTIsTs.-The German
Baptist Association held business
session today, which was so orderly,
and the work so swiftly executed that
sine die adjournment was reached at
the close of the afternoon meeting,
says Richmond dispatch of Wednes-
day. The days work began at 8
O'Clock this morning. The attendance
was large. Tonight and tomorrow
nearly all the visitors will leave for
for their homes. The middle district
of Indiana was selected as the next
meeting place Of the association. The
town was not named but will be Sc
lected later.
Women in good standing were passed
upon as being eligible delegates to the
general conference. Instrumental mu-
sic was given blow, the conference
decided that it should not be taught
among the brotherhood. Neckties are
to be worn only as matter of comfort.
Representatives of railroads and land
companies were debarred from eligi-
bility as members of the conference.
Raisers Of tobacco were excluded from
membership in the district and annual
conferences. A vigorous protest was
made by the Virginians.

- That question which has been pre-
seuted to the Presbyterian General
Assembly as to whether ministers
should marry runaway couples is
pretty hard one. There are few runa'
way couples in this part Of the coun'
try, for instance, who would be much
disturbed by the refusal of minister
to perform the marriage ceremony
They would 60 to the nearest magls'
trate, notary public or other civil Oil
Ger with power to administer a legally
binding oath. The general assembly
has done we'll to deal cautiously with
the subject.

- 1t is pretty we'll settled that secre
tary Alger intends to be candidate
for the United States senate from
Michigan. He has said so himself
and the matter is exciting much inter
est. Senator Mcmillan, the present
incumbent, says he will stand for re-
election, and as he is not only reason
ably popular, but is possessed OF
good.sized barrel-as large as that Of
Alger-it is not thought that he car
be easily defeated.
