It is said that in one county in

In the same county the superin

And the convicts in the penitentiary

A REMENIsCENCEO 1000

"The time is approaching whel
we shall be called on to say what W,
think of the past administration
the one we have witnessed the pas
four years. We predict the mer
who take issue with the return,
when they are in, will be few
and far between. In other words
the issues made against the present
administration will be indeed with
the township primary, or at most at
the county conventions. All these
gentlemen will be heard praising
the 'gallant Aycock" on the day of
the convention, when his admins
tration will be endorsed, and it
surely will be.
We have said this much in order
that we may have good and reason
able foundation for saying some
other things, which we can saw
without hesitation or mental reser-
walton. And it will only require
few sentences to record what we
have in mind. The campaign of
1900 was stormy period in North
Carolina history, it was perhaps a
necessary one, but certainly no sane
man wants to see it repeated. The

Raleigh Evening Times.
The above is quite frank ad-
mission to come from a democratic
paper, but we cannot see how the
editor can say that perhaps it was
necessary to have a stormy cam
palgn sn 1900. And again the
Times says: "The issue, when the
truth is told, was simply to create
strife and antagonism between the
races" etc. We cannot see that the
ends justified the means. This
campaign in 1900 was waged in the
interest of Mr.. Simmons and thew
knew it was necessary to get up
some great issue in order for
him to be elected to the United
States Senate. When it becomes

Pickens Lost a Good Friend in the
Death of Col. ]. E. Hauood.

Col. James e. Hagood, who died
rat his summer home here Friday
afternoon at 6 o'clock, was more gen.
orally known than any other man OF
the county. Notwithstanding the
fact that he had been resident of
Charleston for many years, he never
lost sight of the town and county he
loved so we'll, and always spent the
summer in Pickens.
Col. Hagood was born November
80, 1926, about five miles north of
Pickens. He was engaged in the
mercantile business for lumber OF
years at his home until the year 1856.
In that year he was elected clerk of
old Pickens district, and held this
office until the division of the district
into Pickens and Oconee counties in
1868. During this term OF public
service he made q record that en-.
deared him to the people of his dis.
trict, as he had more responsibility
on his shoulders during the Civil
war than any other individual in the
district. At the conclusion of this
public service Col. Hagood moved to
Pickens and was admitted TO the
bar and practiced law until 1873.
He represented Pickehs county in the
house in 1869 and 1871.
In 1868 commission consisting Of
James E. 1agood, james LOWS,
Reese Bowen, DIR. w. IT, Fields and
James Amber selected the site and
planned the town Of Pickens,
In 1873 Col. Hagood was appoint.
ed clerk of the United States district
court by Judge Bond He served in
this capacity for thirty successive
years. Last spring Col. Hagood,
owing to i'll health, resigned as clerk,
notwithstanding the urgent ontrea,
ties of his life long friend, Judge
Charles III. Simonton, to retain the
Office and employ substitute. In
1947 Col. Hagood married the daugE.
ter of Esther Benson Robinson,
daughter of DIR. John r. Robinson.
