Let all Democratic voters make it
their business to have their names
put on the club rolls. 1t is bad
practice the way some Of them wait
for some one else to look out for
them. There is no telling but that
some of these careless ones might be
left out, and when they 60 to vote
find they are not entitled. Kicking
won't do them any good then. Have
your names put on the books in time.
If you are on the roll, see that your
neighbor is also.

At the Gafuey meeting very few
voted for prohibition and two-th!rds
of those who voted sent their arms
up in high glee with applause howl
ing for the dispensary. The crowd
hurrahed for Tlllman as of old and
the hurrahs for him seem to keep up

To the Editor of the Dispatch:

To the Editor of the Dispatch:
The rain has at last reached US in
greater abundance and We have
thrown off those long faces which
We had been wearing.
We trust that these rains which
We are receiving DOW will aid Won
derfully in the yield of our crops.
The Candidates keep US thinking
that there will be better times in the
near future, as they promise great
things to the voters, IF you will just
elect me-"
The family barbecue at Priceyille,
on the 2Sth inst, was grand success
over all the unfavorable draw backe;
such as rain, etc, during the early
morning hours. There were several
candidates present and spoke on the
different issues.
Among those that were present,
was Mr.. A. Frank Lever, who made
an interesting and intelligent speech.
Tt also contained much wit and
humor.
Prof. John S. Derrick also distin-
guished himself st Priceville. :.
Your scribe attended the Sunday
School Convention on last Friday
and enjoyed the hospitalities Of the
people OF Lexington.
We do not hear anything MOI
about the daily mail along the route
from Lewiedale to Dupler.
1t is hoped that tie people living
on the Spool Wheel road from the
Augusta road to where the settlement
road, known as the Ridge road, lead
ing from Mr.. J. H. Drafts place on
the Charleston road to the Hays
bridge, will take an interest in peti-
tioning the Post Office Department
for free delivery in some sections
and to preserve the post Offices along
the route, as we feel sure that the
citizens who live on this section of
the Spool Wheel road, also those re.
siding on the Ridge road, need an
increase of mail service.
In changing the route of the car
rier on his return from Dupler by
Messrs Cephas Sease, J. H. and J.
c. Price until he reaches the Spool
Wheel road then distribute the mail
along this section of road that We
have just spoken of until he reaches
the Spring Hill and Lewiedale road,
at this point make the turn for
Lewiedale.
By so arranging the route the
Postmaster at Lewiedale will be
paid something for getting the mail
out on this route, as it is now be
does not get any pay scarcely. For
this reason he does not care to sign
petition for just daily mail along
the old route. We trust that the
citizens will take an interest in get
ting an increase of service on this
route. It will give some one from
our midst steady employment as it
will take just about day to make
the trip.
Much success to the Dispatch.

The first thing he ran up on in

July 80, 1900.

Editorially The Advocate says: 'tIt
needs not many words to character
izs this matter. Senator Tillman's
letter does not modify his charge.
Indeed he explains it and actually
argues to sustain his baseless state
ment-and so adds to the insult.
Whereupon it is our duty to say that
his statement is an inexcusable out
rage-the greater because made by a
man whose position demands partic-
ular regard for truth and at least
ordinary respect for reputable people.
His high opinion of religious people
"cuts no figure" when they diff, r
with him! Then they are blind,
fanatics, ETC." He seems to think he
carries all the wisdom Of our COM
monwealth and to differ with him is
folly. His entire course in this affair
deserves rebuke by all religious peo
pie. His abuse of good men will not
help his pet monatrosity, the dis
pensary, That shame to our State
and damage to our citizens will so.
And barrooms will not come back
either"
