Warning Against Signing the
Sewerage Petition.

Mr. Editor: As good deal Of misappre-
kension exists az to the effect of signing the
petition about to be circulated, among the
freeholders asking the City Council to order
an election to decide the question OF bonding
the city to the additional amount Of $50, ,00e
if necessary to put in system of sewerage, it
may be we'll to let the real estate owners koow
exactly The situation. Only freeholdera can
sign the petitions and majority must eigo
before the election Can be ordered. But tine
election once ordered on this petition of the
fraebolders, every qualified voter, white or
black, freeholders or not freeholders can vote
to bond the city and entail tex upon m.
born generations This fact is kept in the
back ground By those who advocate the bond
Issue. Their specious plea is "Siga the petit
ton to hold the election and you can vote
against the bonds True you Gao vote
against the iesue Of bonds, but any number
who own no property can vote to issue them,
and to tax your property for years to come,
ard outvote you to one. Let the free
holder remember that his ooly hope is
10 absolutely refusing to sigu the petition.
Freeholders remember this, and dom t sign the
petition.

To nv Friends, White and Colored, of Sum.

To my Friends, White and Colored, of Sum.
regret very much to be forced TO make g
newspaper statement concerning my conduct
as Christian minister. have been in your
midst for ten years, and have tried to 80 live
that such would be unnecessary, but the
duties of gospel mioister among my people
are delicate aud varied Last Wednesday l
sent for member and officer of my church to
come to my school house where was teach
ing night school that we might talk between
us, and correct some slanderoos and false
ststements which be said had told him
about some one else. considered the state
ments injurious to me and the cause which l
represent. BE refused to come aud see me
and went to see him. was trying to heed
the Bible Injunction, "Agree with thine
adversary quickly, etc." When at his gate be
refused to reason with me. he began talking
10 boieterous way and ended it by striking
me. | had 40 weapons, but spiritual, but
when struck struck in self defence. Tha: is
ell. he and those about him raised the eis-
,urbance and then carried the affair ioto the
Mayors Court which resulted IN causing me
TO paw fipe for breach Of the peace. do
not value the 6ue4 but do the good opinion
of nv feilow-townsnen. lqoestion whether
a minister ought not to defend himself when
misrepresented and struck. hope this little
occurrence will not change the good opinion
which the good people of Sumter have had OF
me for the last ten years.
Respectfully,

In the Way of Improvement.

Nothing 30 surely indicates the growth and
development of town as the appearance Of
the stores, the arrangement Of the goods and
the quality of the articles tha: fill the show
cases and shelves. The psssing away of uu-
kempt stores With miscellaneous aud untidy
stock of cheap and trashy goode and the ap-
pearauce IN their stead of the handsomely
fitted !up stores, filed with 6ne goods we'll
kept aud srtistically arranged marks the
development Of the town into city and an
patrouize the stores
The improvement and development OF Sum
ter along these lines has been steady during
the past few years and today the stores on the
main business streets of this city will COM
pare favorably with those Of any city in the
State and the displays of ell grades Of goods
are not surpassed in variety or quality by the
displays to be seen in other places. 1t is
Known and admitted by every body who has
ever visited Sumter that there is no better
place for shopping in South Carolina.
One of the most handsomely fitted mp stores
in Sumter is that OF E. A. Bultman, who
bought the old McElhose stand few months
ago and had it overhauled aud remodslled for
O. i=welry store II is papered throughout,
With pretty paper, the floor is covered and
the show cases and wall cases are made of
solid polished oak, plate glass and mirrors.
Everything is in the best taste and the whole
effect is as handsome as could be desired.
The stock of cut glass, sterling silver, im-
ported china, handsome pictures, watchee,
jewelry, diamonds and gems of al! kiDde,
etc that fills these show cases and shelves is
80 handsome and striking that few people
pass the store without stopping to admire II.
Mr.. Bultman has selected very hne stock
of goods, believing that there is demand in
Sumter for the very best that the markets OF
