WHITE TOWN RESOLCTIUNS.

.
The following was received by The
Advertiser from the headquarters of
Hon. w j. Talbert:
The people Of White Town held a
mass meeting last Saturday evening
at which Ex-congressman w. j. Tai
bert was invited to make an address.
Mr.. G. S. CARTRIDGE presided over the
meeting, while Mr. Luther w. Ride
hoover acted as secretary. Quite a
number Of people were present from
the surrounding country.
After the address the following res
olutions were read by the secretary
and unanimously adopted by the meet
ing.
Preamble and resolutions Of Mass
meeting at White Town as follows:
Whereas it seems to us that the ac-
ton of the late county convention at
Edgefield was not fair reflection of
the sentiment Of the county, and
whereas it apepars that our fellow
citizen from the west side, Col. w. j
Talbert did not receive fair treatment
Therefore be 1t resolyd by the citi-
zens of this community in mass meet
ing assembled,
1st. That we desire to put on record
our high esteem for and our unbound
ed confidence in our distinguished fell
low citizen above named, who was
born and raised among us, and who
has never been found wanting either
in time OF peace or war.
That we hereby heartily endorse his
candidacy for the United States Senate
and earnestly recommend him to the
voters OF his native county OF Edge
field as well as to the whole people OF
the state OF South Carolina as man
worthy and well qualified to fll the
exalted position to which he is hon.
estiy aspiring.

SERIOUS BLACKsBURG FIRE.
Probably 100000 Loss in Cherokee
County Town-Partially Covered by

insurance.
Ganney. May 31.-Fire which start
ed at o'clock this morning burned
the business section OF Rlacksburg TO
the ground, IL stores suffering from
the flames at loss which totals ap-
proximately 100000. While some eS-
innate that the loss may not exceed
$4,000, the first figure is generally
conceded to be nearer the actual loss.
Began Mt Early Hour.
The fire was discovered shortly be-
fore o'clock in a building occupied
by the White Front grocery on Main
street The alarm was given, but
with absolutely no apparatus for fight
ing fire and strong wind blowing,
the property owners were helpless and
stood by watching the buildings burn.
While the fire was confined to one
side OF the street there was some hope
entertained for saving a part Of the
business section, but when the strong
wind famed the flames across and the
Iron City hotel building, the largest
building in town, was ignited, all
hope was given up.
The fire spread rapidly and in few
minutes the business part of the town
was in ruins, five stores being burned
on one side OF the street and six on
the other. When the walls Of the
hotel building collapsed the debris fell
through the roof of the Bank of
Blacksburg, completely demolishing
the interior of the bank and tearing
down the walls Of this building.
Origin is Unknown.
Much speculation has been engaged
in as to the origin of the fire. No
plausible theory has yet been ad-
vanced, although rumor has it that it
was the work of incendiaries. 1t is
known that threats were made by ne
groes following a lynching which oc-
Cured in Blacksburg in March and
some are said to have stated that
"Blacksburg will soon go up in
smoke"
The heaviest losers in the fire were:
White Front grocery, merchandise to-
tai loss, insurance $1,000; Iron City
hotel total loss, insurance $4,000;
Bells drug store, total loss, building
insurance, $500; Bells drug store,
merchandise total loss, insurance, $5,-
600; l.. #. Ligon, merchandise, total
loss, insurance, $1,000; o. II. Sarrett,
building total loss, no insurance; O..
A. Osborne, total loss, building insur-
ance, none; Allie Osborne. total loss,
building insurance, none; A. II. Pol
lock. total loss, building insurance,
none; A. Fl. Pollock, total loss, build
ing insurance, none; Bank of Blacks
burg, partial loss, insurance not
known.
No plans have as yet been made for
replacing the burned buildings and it
is not known whether or not all of
them will be replaced.-The State.
