END OF THE CARNIVAL.

The Dreamland Carnival company
left for Rock Hill yesterday morning
after a week Of fairly prosperous busi-
ness in Yorkville, and taking with II
the good will Of the people generally.
The carnival crowd came to York
willie with the burden Of sentiment
against it. The first carnival was
novelty; and got the benefit Of that
fact. There were some toughs along,
however and they left bad impress
sion. The second crowd did very
good business for itself and 6ehavea
very nicely until the last day and night,
when there was more or less gambling
and robbery.
The Dreamland people therefore
came under suspicion, but 1t must be
confessed that they conducted them
selves in a manner calculated to win
general good will. There are some
sharps and grafters in the lot, and
some people were swindled by skin
games. Mayor Lowry learned Of what
was going on and notified the manage
ment that on the first complaint he
would take action that would not be
pleasant. After that there was very
little more trouble.
Saturday is always the big day with
the carnival people. On that day the
skinners among them are out for all
they can get. But If there were
number of blacklegs among the
Dreamland people, the fact did not de-
velop. Saturday was a bad day, on
account Of the rain, which made things
disagreeable, and the attendance was
not nearly so large as it would have
been otherwise. There was some
gambling, dead sure things for the
proprietors of the tricks; but the num-,

AFTER all, the people Of the south
do not appear to be very much con-
cerned at the election Of Roosevelt.
Some of the newspapers have been
trying to talk as If they considered
the event a calamity; but they do not
seem to be able to make out their
case even to their own satisfaction. 1t
is really fact that Mr.. Roosevelt has
been inclined to be little headstrong,
and that he has chafed under the re-
strictions Of the constitution; but
there is reason to hope that he has
learned something as the result Of past
experience and maybe he will give US
a good safe administration during the
next four years.
