The annual city election which
took place last Tuesday drew out
nearly as large vote as that of
a year ago, when the question of
license and no license was voted
upon. The contest centered up
on the candidates for mayor, and
theunprecedented majority given
Mayor Saunders in his re-elec-
ton, is magnificent endorse
ment of his administration of
city affairs for the past two
years. This endorsement was
made more emphatic by the fact
that Mr.. F. B. Roberts, his op-
ponent, was one of the most pop
ular of our citizens, against whom
of himself nothing disparaging
could be said, and the canvass
conducted by the friends of
Mayor Saunders was along these
lines. The verdict Of Tuesday
is that the great body of the peo-
pie of Milbank are satisfied with
the careful and conservative
manner in which municipal mat
ters have been conducted, and
were fearful of any possibility
of a return to the old methods
that virtually bankrupted the
city and left legacy of debt up
on the people, which happily is
now gradually being reduced.
The fact that each of the three
aldermen of the old board were
elected without opposition, is a
complete endorsement of their
Off cial work as we'll as compli-
ment to the gentlemen them
selves.
The following table will give
the vote as cast ia the city last
Tuesday:

NegrO'S Prize "POem.'

A South Carolina reader of the "Odd
Tales" sends the following:
South Carolina is often reproached by
the self-righteous people of the North
with oppression of the negro race. Per
contra, statistics show that voluntarily
and without compulsion the States of
the South, and conspiciously South Caro-
lima, have provided literally for the educa-
ton of the negro and that the white
people of the State have taxed themselves
for that end, the whole burden falling
upon the property holders of the State,
who are white people, the negroes con-
tributing practically nothing.
Now for the fruits of this generous
expenditure: A recent negro school eX-
hibition in the territory which used to be
the old slaveholding district of Sumter
was had, at which prizes were offered for
competitors in the AIRS Poetica,' COM
monty known as poetry and one little
darkey tex de prize for poetry His
proud mother brought him before her
former mistress to say his piece and the
grinning youngster proudly shouted forth
the following prize poem-his own COM
position:
Uncle Dick
He tex sick
And wot you think e all 'em
E drink quart of buttermilk
And den e stommick fail 'em!
Talk about higher education after that |!

Tribute of ReSDect.

Resolved, 1st. That God in His all
wise providence has removed from our
midst Miss Belle Sandifer, one of our
most faithful and earnest Sunday-school
workers. Oh how we'll miss her at Sum-
day-school and at Bethesda baptist
church), of which she has been faithful
member for about three years; and how
they at home will miss her. We all loved
her, but God loved her most. She often
talked of dying and expressed no serious
apprehension as to the future.
End. That our hearts have been made
sad by the death of dear Belle, and we
tender the bereaved family the assurance
of our heartfelt sympathy.
3rd. That her labors are ended. No
more titful hope can be made by us, than
that she should receive the reward due
her, and that it may lie our happiness to
live the pure and undehlcl lives she lived,
and the glorious satisfaction Of meet
ing death with that calm, submissive and
sublime resignation of hers. We feel that
God has taken one more Belle" from us
to reign with Him in heaven.
4th. That in her illness hope and
doubt alternated for days together. All
that tender mother, devoted brother,
and step-fathcr could do was done, but
God in His infinite wisdom took her Sun
day afternoon. April o1st. A throng of
weeping friends laid her gently away in
the Springtown cemetery, and then with
sorrowinS hearts turned away again to
life's work and sorrows.
9TH. That page in our minute book
be dedicated to her memory, these res0-
lutions be inscribed thereon, 4 copy be
sent to the family, to the Baptist Courier,
and to the county papers for publication.
Mr.. J. II. ZEIGLER,

Where Are the Mothers {!

John Jeffries, president of the board of
supervisors, was an agreeable caller at
our Office last Monday. He pertinently
remarked: What has become of the
mothers of the Confederacy? Not a
mention is made of them in connection
with the great reunion" Sponsors, maids
of honor, daughters, sons and their reti-
nue. of sponsors and maids, and lastly
the veterans, and not a word of the moth
ers; and if any class of people deserve a
halo of glory around their heads it is the
mothers who gave their sons, brothers
and husbands freely to the bloody sacri-
flee, endured the isolation, horrors of
raids, abuse of vandals, the agony of sus-
pensc, suffered and endured agonies of
mind and hardships of body that the sol
dicr in the field neither experienced nor
realized. Truly the mothers deserve at
least q recognition in the voluminous
general orders of many new made gener,
als.-Holly Springs (Miss.) South.

Some newspapers in the State who are
of course opposed to McLaurin are work
ing very hard to get up joint debate be-
tween Tillman and McLaurin. This is
only scheme to assist in the defeat of
McLaurin, if possible, and if the junior
Senator will take our advice he will not
thus play into their hands. Tillman is
not the embodiment of the Democracy of
South Carolina now, no matter how much
he may think so, and there is no reason
why McLaurin should indulge in de-
bate with him, which would surely be one
of personalities, and not discussion of
principles. Mr. Tillman can talk through
his puppet in the campaign next year, but
McLaurin should take no notice of him
now.
