Remarkable Political Scene at Wana-
makers

Those who attended the dedication
of the great Wanamaker store in
Philadelphia on Saturday and who
are familiar with the political his
tory of Pennsylvania during the last
twenty years were much impressed
with the stage setting. Upon the
platform with President Taft and
Mr.. Wanamaker were United States
Senator Boies Penrose, Justice John
p. Elkin, of the State Supreme
Court; Mayor Rudolph Blankenburg
and others who have played a more
or less prominent part in the politics
of this State. Senator Penrose, as
the leader of the Republicans of
Pennsylvania, has not always been in
accord with Mr.. Wanamaker and
has on more than one occasion op-
posed the Wanamaker wing of the
Republican host Notwithstanding
all this it was Senator Penrose who
presented the Wanamaker colors at
an interesting point in the dedica-
tory ceremonies. Justice Elkin was
chairman of the Republican State
committee in the famous contest
between Wanamaker and Quay for
the nlted States Senate. In the
same campaign Mayor Blankenburg
was one of the chief lieutenants of
Mr.. Wanamaker. Governor John X
Tener, who also took a prominent
part in the ceremonies, pleasantly
introduced Mayor Blankenburg, who
was not among the Tener support
ers in the great fight of 1910. u
was altogether a more significant
peace occasion than the one which
took place in New York a few hours
later. All animosities and political
bitterness were swallowed up in do
ing honor to a great merchant who
has lived long enough to appreciate
the good qualities of men distin-
guished in the Republican party who
did not happen to be on his side
when he sought political preferment

He Woulo Make a Good Candidate

The outgoing Sheriff. NJ. Lee Bra
man, leaves the Sheriff's Office with
a record that has probably never
been equalled in the history of
Wayne county. During his term of
office no person who has had any
business transaction with him have
any just cause to complain and must
admit that they have been treated
courteously by the outgoing sheriff,
and it is a pleasure to transact busl-
ness with that kind of man.
Everyone of the retiring officers leave
with a good, clean record, one that
they need not be ashamed of and
to their credit. All must admit that
they have performed the duties of
their offices honestly and faithfully
to the entire satisfaction OF the peo-
pie of Wayne county. The time is
not far distant when we will be call
ed on to elect Representative to
represent the people of Wayne coun-
ty in cur State Legislature, and why
noG boom the eX-Sheriff for that posi-
ton. While it may be a little early
to agitate the nomination OF anyone
for that office, but it is well enough
for the voters of Wayne county to
be on the lookout for a man to fill
the bill whether it be M. Lee Bra
man or some one else.

Coker-COker.

Bethel, December "a beautiful
wedding took place at the home of
Mr. ] L Coker, Wednesday evening,
November 27, at 4::30 o'clock, when
Mr. L C Coker of Hebron was united
in marriage with Miss Eva Coker, of
this place. The bride is the o'1est
sister of Mr. j L Coker.
The home was filled with reiatives,
friends and visitors, some coming
quite a distance to witness the cere-
mony. The house was beautifully
decorated in white, blue and pink.
Miss Belva Broadway of>Paxville
presided at the organ, the selection
being the Bridal Chorus from Lo-
hengrin." As those soft strains came
forth Miss Louise Wilson of Bethel
entered with Mr. Francis Buddin of
Kingstree, then followed Miss Mary
Burgess of Bethel with Mr. Arthur
Cooper of Bethel, next came Miss
Ruth McElyeen of Bethel with Mr.
John Lewis Coker, a brother of the
bride, then came Miss Jeddie Coker,
q sister of the bride. with Mr. ] Ollie
Gowdy of Lake City, last came the
bride and groom. The couples stood
within the chancel, facing each 9th
er, while the bride and groom stood
beneath an arch of white and ever
green.
Rev Mr. Clark of Olanta in very
simple yet impressive manner, per-
formed the marriage ceremony, at
ter which the newly welded couple
slowly left the home, followed by
the other couples. :,
The bridal party then left for a
drive and returned about dark, when
a reception was awaiting them. Sew
eral courses were served, after which
an evening of pleasure was enjoyed.
Messrs Hardy and Letcher McEl-
yeen acted as ushers for the occa-
sion, being assisted by Messrs Des
Gowdy of Lake City and Lee Cooper
of Bethel.
Mr. and Mrs Coker will make their
future home in the Hebron section.
