The Right Spirit.

The people of Oconee and Anderson
counties seem to be very much in earnest
about building new road from Town
vile to Westminster. When j. j. Fret
we'll, of Anderson. told how much money
it would take to see the enterprise in mo-
tion, the necessary sum was raised under
the light of single sun. This is the
only way to go about thing, and the
concerted action of our neighbors is q
good example for any community to fol-
low. The section of country which the
proposed railroad would open up is one of
the best in the Piedmont and to the ordi-
nary mind it would appear that it could
be made a successful undertaking. The
project seems to be entirely feasible, and
If carried through it will unquestionably
mean a big thing for all that section.-

For Congress.
[Pickens Sentinel Journal. !


Hons. Julius e. Boggs and Wyatt
Aiken are both announced in this
paper for Congress from this, the
Third, Congressional District. They
are both good men, and true, and
the district will be we'll taken care of
no matter which one happens to get
elected.
This paper is peculiarly situated
in this race: Mr.. Boggs is a fellow
townsman, neighbor and friend to
the editor, and at one time editor of
this paper. He has served the town,
county and State we'll and should he
be elected to the Office TO which he
is aspiring the interests of the dis
trict will be in good hands. Mr..
Aiken is equally our friend. He is a
pleasant gentleman, an indefatigable
worker, and stands high in the eyes
of the people and the estimation of
his colleagues. He has been faithful
to the trust reposed in him by the
voters of the Third District and we
cannot go back on him or fight his
record, which is clean, straight and
honest.
Both these honorable gentlemen
have friends in this county, who are
our friends and supporters of this
paper. We are taking no part in
the county campaign, and for these
reasons this paper is strictly out of
this fight.
Persons wishing to "boost" these
gentlemen through the columns of
this paper can do so at our regular
campaign rates, but articles deroga-
tory not inserted at any price.

to make the run and to do the work
seven days in week is moro than one
mtn can stand. During the past few
months there have been repeated :n-
stances Of mail matter being carried by
Its destination and delivered on another
train the same day or the day after, and
this has doubtless been due to the fact
that the postal clerk, N. l.. Fant. has
been overworked.
Congressman Aiken has been working
for some time to secure an additional
postal clerk, and has received assurance
from w. s. Shallenberger, the Second
Assistant Postmaster General, that his
request will soon be granted. Mr.. Aiken
is In receipt OF the following letter:

A Trip Through Horse Heaven.

In order to make up our minds as to
what would be the ideal general pur-
pose horse for the more progressive,
enterprising class of our farmers, our
committee visited the farmers Blue
Grass region of Kentucky and other
horse breeding sections of Ohio, Illinois
and Indiana. In Kentucky the whole of
this famous Blue Grass region is devoted
almost exclusively to the breeding of
trottors, race aud saddle horses, and now
and then q few Kentucky coach horses.
, Near Paris wo had the pleasure of exam
lining and handling "Kentucky Chimes"
which is to our mind the handsomest
3-year-old trotter in the State of Ken
tucky. This beautiful stallion is what
we imagine is true type of Justin Nor
gan when he was three years old. If
nothing goes wrong a colt sired by this
horse may be seen at Clemson College
some day by the side of it's dam, one of
pair of standard road mares selected near
Paris. KY, by our committee for Glenn
son College.
After mature deliberation and weigh
ing carefully all the points of merits and
demerits of the different breeds of horses
our committee have concluded that the
coach horse type is the best type of
horses for general purposes on the farm.
We have seen some of the finest speoi-
mems of Kentucky coachers and French
coaohers, and the writer having seen the
Nfnest stud of Cleveland Bays in this
Scpuntry also, it is important to state here
that our committee settled upon the
German coach horse as the best suited
for the farm and the best bred coacher to
line for coaohers in Germany for more
than two centuries.
Aftur landing at Lafayette, Indiana, 1t
was not long before we were on the stock
farms of ]. Crouch & Son, the largest
iVRprte,s and breeders of German coach
V Ses IN America, the senior member
of this farm being a native of Kentucky
and possessing all the qualities of high
toned gentleman with that staunch demo
cratic convictions of the old stamp of
Kentucky's best men.
Y We were soon cognizant of the fact
that we were in genial company and
talked freely of Clemson College and its
prospects and as its location was at the
old home of John G.. Calhoun and Ben
Tillman, the farmers one-eyed god, was
the daddy of this college, it was plea
sure for Mr.. Crouch to donate the sum of
thirteen hundred dollars in the price of
fine pair of coach mares Zone of which
was imported) to Clemson College.
Among lot of near one hundred fine
stations of German coach, Belgian and
Percheron draft is the famous prize taker,
Hannibal" that last year won all PRICES
in his class in the States and Canada, and
the grand champion premium over all
coach breeds open to the world. Barring
accidents we expect to see fine pair Of
colts sired by this grand horse romping
over the grounds at Clemson College.
This horse Hannibal, we are sure, has the
finest style and action of any horse we
ever saw in any land; he bounces along
like hia legs were made Of steel springs.
