HOSE FOR FIRE DEPARTMENT.
Committee Purchases 800 Feet of
Best Material From New Jersey

AT meeting OF the fire department
committee Tuesday the purchase Of
1000 feet of hose from the Eureka
Fire Hose Manufacturing Co. was de-
cided on. the deal was closed and
rush order sent in to the house to
snip the material Immediately.
The decision of the committee was
reached after the several sale smen
present had shown their wares and
each one of them had been heard on
what he had to sell. The committee
chose what they considered the best
hose in the lot and have very reason
to believe that 1t will be in every way
satisfactory when it arrives.

NEW HOTEL RUMORS.
Why No Authoritative Statement Hos
Been Published.

AS a result Of the announcements
made at the annual meeting Of the
Chamber Of Commerce by the presi-
dent, the secretary and the chairman
Of the hotel committee that a mod
ern hotel was practically assured for
Sumter there has been a revival Of
interest in the hotel proposition and
much discussion thereof. Authorita-
tive Information has been sought and
this paper has been requested by
dozens to get the facts and print
them. In ordinary circumstances
this is a reasonable request but in
view of the fact that there has been
so much hotel talk in the past with
out result it has been decided to pub
lish no positive statement respecting
the present hotel enterprise until the
last element Of doubt has been re-
moved and the hotel is a certainty.
The writer has been conversant with
the progress Of the present enterprise
from its inception and as it has now
reached a stage that seems to guar
antee the erection Of the hotel immed-
lately, there should be no reason for
Withholding from publication the
facts, but, although the plans have
been prepared and accepted by all
parties interested, titles to the lot
selected for the hotel have not pass
cd and until this matter has been
closed up the details of the under
taking will not be released for pub
lication. All who are acquainted with
the facts are convinced that a mod
ern hotel is assured, but past hot air
performances make them reluctant
to go on record on the hotel propo-
sitiOn while there remains the remot
est possibility of a failure of the
plans agreed upon. That is why no
positive statement has been printed
and why it will not be printed until
som metime next week when il is eX-
pected ground will be broken for the
hotel.

patient near Dalzell Wednesday and

All Of the other inmates Of the

A number OF persons were exposed
to English before the county was in

could quarantine 1t. But County
Physician Lennon has thoroughly
vaccinated In the immediate neigh

very probable that the trouble is at
an end. but 1t will require several

We heard Governor Bleases speech

OF his speech delivered on Main street.
While it is free country and candi-
dates are at liberty to say about any
thing under the shining sun they
please to say. We refuse to accept
some things he said without rebuke.
His reference to Lying newspapers
and preachers" brought him no en-
viable honors. True, one soul under
the lash of the governors TRADE
against Lying newspapers and hypo-
critical preachers" cried out. send
for Rice" another stirred to dcma-
gogic zeal by the words Of the speak
er, cried: He's got his dose" There
was no word Of condemnation from
the lips OF the governor. His friend
stirred by the denunciation Of The
newspapers and preachers, expresses
the comforting thought that one
enemy got his dose" Would our
worthy occupant of the chair Of the
executive thus reseat himself upon
that position of honor? Must he pay
the price so heavy as that for the
honor he seeks? The people Of this
State will do we'll to think soberly be-
fore casting a ballot for a man who
so far forgets himself as to strike a
man in distress, even when II is his
