Notes..


Not that we love O'Hare more but
Shaw Van less, was the war cry on the
county attorney question,
Jepsen's name was sprung at the
wrong time. Had he been candidate
against Ahart he would have been
nominated
Vail was spanked to finish. But
this is only the first round.
Carey made great mistake in allow
ing his name to be attached as the
guiding spirit of a losing campaign.
Yes, it is the same Bill. Davie who
was beaten last fall.
O'Hare played in great luck in hav-
ing Shaw Van for an opponent
The temperance" candidate did not
cut much ice in a democratic conven-
tion.
Grason was in the iran also" class.
Ditto Fishel. Two silver republicans
who were not wanted.
The same high moral principles
which dictated the defeat of Flaherty
are said to have dominated in the
nomination of O'Hare.
And what will Dugan do to him?
Not thing, of course not. Oh, no.
DR.. Fitzgerald as committeeman
from Vail helping to elect his
friends(?) O'Hare and Holland is an.
other humor of the campaign.

The Nominations.

The nominations for the offices to be
filed were then in order and the chair.
man called for the nomination OF coun-
ty auditor.
A delegate stated that as M. j. COL
Inns was the only candidate In the field
he moved that Mr.. Collins be declared
the nominee by acclamation. This
was done amid applause, and then
Mike was called for to make a speech.
He thanked the convention heartily
and IN good form.
The same procedure was used In the
nomination of Frank Faul for clerk of
courts, and Mr.. Faul neatly thanked
the convention.

Girls 10 Be Used as Messengers.

Chicago, Aug. 29.-The Western
Union Telegraph company has def.
nitely decided that it will in this city
employ no more boys as messengers.
The boys have struck three times
within the last month and the com.
pany has decided that it will employ
them no longer. Girls will be used to
carry messages in the business and
residence districts. For the night
work men will be used, and men will
also be kept in the daytime for the
purpose of carrying messages into the
undesirable parts Of the city. The
change will be made at once.

the east end OF the county two ballots
were taken, although John Holland OF
Jackson township had a good majority
on both ballots. The vote on the first
formal ballot was as follows: Hol-

number OF votes on the informal bal
lot, withdrew his name before the
next vote was taken.
Dave For Representative.
W, A. Davie was almost unanimous.

THE CATHOLIC LADIES
SUPPER,

Next Wednesday p. m.. at the
Opera House, the Ladies of
Sacred Heart Church, will give
a supper and good social enter
tainment for the benefit of their
organ fund. An interesting con-
test for a gold-headed cane, for
the most popular candidate for
Mayor, will be one of the leading
events of the evening The con-
test will be by the way of ballot,
each vote costing 10 cents, and
the candidate receiving a plural
ity of votes will be presented with
the cane. No doubt, the voting
will be spirited, as the outcome
will be a line on the results of
the city election the following
week. Messrs Yandell and Mill
er both have hosts of friends who
will look after their respective
interests on the occasion. The
cane will be exhibited in Johnson
and Taliaferro's show window

last ringer of the bell was Thomas

The Liberty bell has been removed
from the building on four occasions;
tho first, during the revolution, Sep.

when taken from the CITY to New

Another tumble.

The House Saturday passed the
general Jury bill to its 3rd reading
without much discussion.
Captain Hills bill seeking to re-
quire the publication of county ex-
penditures passed the House but
Mr.. Robinson managed to get an
amendment adopted which exempted
pickens county from the provisions
of the bill. It is rather curious that
the House should in one hour have
passed the general jury bill, which
was necessary because the Supreme
Court had said that exemptions for
certain counties made an act null
and void and then in the next hour
have passed Captain Hills bill
which sought to avoid the very. con.
stitutional trouble the Supreme Court
had pointed out and should have ad-
ded clause which makes the act
not worth the paper it is printed on.

THE LIBERTY BELL.
Can Now be Seen in Charleston.

Can Now be Seen in Charleston.
In connection with the coming of
the Liberty Bell to Charleston, the
following history of the bell as given
in The State will, we believe, be Of
great interest at this time to our
readers:
"The bell was cast by Thomas
Lester, Whitechapel, London. The
bell arrived at the end of August,
1852, and was hung. Early in
September, however, it was cracked
by stroke of the clapper without
any other violence and thereupon
recast by, Pass & Stow, two "ingen-
ious workmen," in Philadelphia, and
hung April 17th, 1853. In the re-
casting the same metal was used
with the addition of an ounce and q
half of copper to the pound to make
she bell less brittle. The same form
and lettering were preserved with
the substitution Of the names ant
place and year of recasting it now
bears. 1t was recast by them, tn
first casting not being satisfactory,
and the same year again hung in th,
State House. .>"F> sG@i- e..

onu h"Vo range StOCk TOO, seem
some young stock picking dry grass,
cotton "cups" and nibbling corn
stalks for living. If 1 was some
horses and colts l would tie myself
to a clump of sassafras bushes and
try my powers on them. I am no
saint but I am humane enough to
feel sorry for stock, and very young
stock, that must take such winter
as this out in the fields hunting per-
simmons, blackhaws, locusts, dry
grass, cornstalks, etc., for living.
Beating stock is not the only cruelty
to animals one can think of.
The roads are in a bad fx-so
much mud, and hauling has been
brisk-no stop for rain or mud, and
of course clay roads are badly cut.
Nothing but crosslaying or rocks
will do on such roads where hauling
bnever stops, whether there is abso-.
Lutte necessity or not.
Broad tires will not pack q CLAW
road in wet weather, as many claim,
for l have seen some running all the
week in the rain, or Just after, and
if they have not worked up the mud,
do not know what mud is. Clay
roads will become muddy with only
stock walking over them if it rains
much.
If there is any one thing needed
now, it is q society for the preven>
tion of cruelty to animals, and mem
bers with backbone enough to carry
it along for good, for no doubt there
is much cruelty. A few days ago |
saw something-hair, skeleton and
skin, an evidence of something that
was once mule, and likely one that
was valuable and faithful, and I
asked whose thing that was. Some
one told me it belonged to would-be
prominent negro, and was turned
out to pick living and to shelter
under the canopy of the open hea-
vens, when the corn crop was gath.
cred las fall and had had nothing
else given it since. I thought its
days must be numbered and it would
soon be relieved of hunger and ex-
posure. It died a few days later.
Now this is cruelty. There may be
many others. l know of several
horses and mules that have died of
neglect-laziness in not a long
while. o
l think that there ought to be a
law passed to take up such neglected
stock of heartless owners, and old
decripid stock owned by cruel own
ers and have them condemned and
shot by some proper county official.
1t ID sin l believe to let once good
animals fall into the hands of such
people, to be killed of in such a cruel
manner. l saw a poor wornout,
crippled up old mule, "as poor as
snakes" tugging along the road,
with big, fat, buck negro straddle
of i'll don't see how the negro
stood it-frailing on it with hall
stick and switch, trying to force il
along. With law for the purpose
the animal could have been put Out
Of trouble humanely. The negro
had no use for it, it was not able tx
make living, and was only being
rode and beaten to death. There is
lots of old wornout stock that ough
to be shot and gotten rid of. Many
people don't want them, and le,
others have them to kill by slow
degrees. HEY DENVER.
