R|NGLING BROS. AT CREENV|LLE
Worlds Greatest Show
to Exhibit There on
Wednesday Oct.
goth.

Ihe people OF this vicinity Will
have but one opportunity of seeing
Ringing Brothers Worlds Great
est Shows this year, the exhibition
at Greenville, October 30th, on
Wednesday, being the only one to
be presented near here. 1t is an
opportunity that all lovers of good
amusement should avail themselves
Of, as the Ringing Brothers have
organized a circus so excellent, so
large and so full of novelty that it
is above comparison with any 9TH
er show.
Foreign agents stationed in Eu-
rope and Asia were instructed last
winter to engage every act Of prom
inence regardless Of cost, and the
result is a performance absolutely
monopolizing all the worlds best
talent. What these agents left for
other shows to engage was not
considered good enough for the
Ringing Brothers to bother with.
There are over 800 performers with
the circus and 100 big acts, not
one of any other show could afford
to pay for. The Ricobono horses
which wear trousere, coats and
boots, and stand and walk on their
hind feet all the time they are in
the ring, are the grea test trained
animal act the world has ever seen.
Other attractions are Alexander
Patty. the only man on earth who
can walk on his head as others
walk OH their feet: De Rocks
wonderful dog that walks around
the ring OH its hind feet, balancing
a man OH its head; the wonderful
five Bedinis, from Italy, who jump
simultaneously to the back of a
single horse; the great Kaufmanns
who ride unicycles OH a high wire
with the handle bars removed. .:the
Holloways of London; the Mar
nello- Marnites, acrobatic bell ring
L
ers; Daisy Hodgini, the celebrated
Italian rider and only woman who
can turn somersalt while OH horse
back, and the Mize Golem troupe,
loaned to the Ringing Brothers
BY the Shah of Persia.
If the space were to spare 100
more acts, better than ever before
seen in this country, could be
mentioned: Suffice it to say that
Ringing Brothers have an organ
ization so wonderful as to stand on
plan by itself high above any
other kind of amusement. And
there will be but one opportunity
for the people of this vicinity to
see it.

A young lady at fashionable

tected stealing money and jeweIy
from the other students and from
the other students and from the
authorities of the college. She is
said to be member of a very

ible effort is being made to keep
the matter quiet and charge it to

poor girl it would be plain case

fortunately true that it looks as if
danger prophecied some years
ago is about to be realized: that is,
that you can't keep the. negro out
of politics because the white man
is going to bring him back into pol
itics.
1 therefore sound the warning
note and urge that unless you de-
sire that the conditions which pre-
vailed thirty years ago should re-
turn. it is absolutely necessary that
you should defeat any independent
who may run against the regular
Democratic nominee. l therefore
believe that vote for an indepen-
dent candidate is "a vote directly
aimed at the party Organization
itself and will tend strongly to
hasten its disruption. I am no al
armist, and there is no man who
believes that every individual
should have a right to his own op-
inion upon all questions more than
II believe it. But all democrats
should fight their differences of
political opinion out in the party
ranks. 1t may indeed be true
that some questions that arise up
on which an individual nominated
for Office may be determined to act
may not have arisen until after
the primary but that is no more
reason to bolt the ticket, and vote
for an independent, than if the
matter was threshed out in the
primary election. Once the noni-
nee of the party has been declared,
the action is final, and should be
supported by every man in the
Democratic party. 1t has been a
long and arduous fight for our
fathers and ourselves to establish
Democratic and WHITE SUPRE-
MACY insBolivar county. as well
as in the entire South, and there
fore look with profound appre-
hension upon any effort to disor-
ganize the party ranks by the can
didacy of an independent run
ing against the regular nominee of
the party. Those of you who diff
fer OH the question of the division
of the county can fight it out at
some other time, and some other
place. 1t is my understanding that
the nominee for Senator and one
nominee for the Lower House are
opposed to the creation of new
county. while the other nominee
for the House favors same-the1l
why not let the Democratic Legis-
lature settle the question rather
than disrupt the Democratic party
of Bolivar county. Do not refuse
to vote for the regular nominee of
the party, who was nominated by
and because of your votes, for this
or any other reason.
therefore urge you to cast your
vote for the entire Democratic
ticket, including Mr.. w. H. Fitz-.
gerald, and thus in the defeat of
an independent candidate. stamp
your disapproval once and for all
against attempts to bring disrup-
ton in the party by independent
candidates.
