Augusta Secures Encampment.

South Carolina, more particularly
Charleston, lost heavily by not having
the encampment for the States OF
North and South Carolina, Georgia
and Florida held there, as was at one
time practically agreed upon by the
war department Through the indis-
cretion of the governor. this was lost
to the State. And now the announce
ment has been made that the encamp-
ment will be held in Augusta. 1t is
well for the city across the Savannah
and for our sister State that she has not
such a governor as the one that the Pal
metto State is afflicted with. This,
however, is not the first and only loss
that the people have sustained since the
present executive has held despotic
sway.

Consider Seriously

Before condemning the new rules for
the primary, answer this question:
"Should (my vote) the vote of an hon
est, hard working citizen of South
Carolina be annulled by the vote of
some foreigner in Charleston or by
some man brought from Georgia or
North Carolina for the sole purpose of
voting in South Cardinals primary"
Under the new rules only bona fde
citizens of this. state can vote. Surely
no man who wishes to see the primary
election honestly conducted can or will
object to provisions that will prevent
foreign sailors and worthless stragglers
from adjoining States from voting.
Consider seriously before condernning
the work of the State convention.

PLUM BRANCH.
Drought Causes Oats to Ripen
PrematureEy. Mr. freeland's
New Store. 8. Y. P. u.
EDSaTtaIns
EnSertaiES,

Dear Advertisers. Give me space
for a few lines .hiS morning. We
are in the midst Of the mcst serious
drought that we have experienced
for a long time. The farmers of this
portion of the state are looking and
not only looking but are serious
over the outlook. The oat crop tina,
was so promising three weeks ago
is now rlrening prematurely or
rather drying up for the want of
rain, and the seed that they have
planted still in the earth as dry as
a powder house no sign of coming
up. Some OF our farmers have a
stand of cotton and some few that
planted early corn have a stand,
but what little that has come up is
not doing we'll on account OF the
C Id winds.
Yesterday evening the clements
showed some signs of rain which
gave us faint hope, but soon that
hope was dispelled by the cool wind
springing up in the night and stars
shining forth in all their brilliancy
put an end to what little hope we
had in the evening before.
Well, Brother Minis, our town is
moving up to the front with her
manynew buildings and others max
ing preparations to build.
w. r. Freeland will soon be es-
lablished in his new store on the
west.side of town. and like all the
merchants in our town he is pre-
pairing for an extensive trade this
summer and fall Iegardless of the
crop and outlook. While the town
people are doing their part in the
improvement of the town, the rail
road people are also doing their part
by improving the depot and plat
form and work that bas been need
ed for a long. while.
Last Wednesday evening the b.
Y. P. u. enjoyed a very pleasant
time at the home of Mr.. and MRS.
NJ. B.. Sturkey. The oak grove was
beautifully lighted up, and with
Rev. Mr. Coyineton and Mrs. Dr.
Adams to manage the affair and
hand out the lemonade.
While l write the sun is shining
bright, the atmosphere is clear, the
wind is blowing a brisk bre"ze and
from all appearances the rain is in
the remote future.

The Class Opposed to Reform.

Hon. John Gary Evans, chairman of
the State Democratic executive COM
mittee, has received a "black hand"
letter threating him and other party
leaders with death if the matter of
primary reform is pressed. The let
ter was crudely written and bears evil
dence of having been written by an
illiterate person. All sorts of vile epi-
thets were applied to those who have
been most active in their efforts to
safeguard the primary election.
God save the State from this class of
citizens. The restrictions that have
been thrown around the primary were
not intended to debar any honest white
citizen of South Carolina, however
poor or ignorant. BUTT is desired that
every unworthy man, though his skin
be white, who is perhaps sojourning
here for only short season, be debar-
red from voting along with the sturdy,
honest citizenship of this State. We
confidently believe that the vast ma
jority of the men of South Carolina, re-
gardless of factional differences, will
unite for the purity of the ballot.

Largest Vessel Afloat.

The "Vaterland" the largest
steamship ahoat, which was recently
built for the Hamburg-American Line,
has just completed its maiden voyage
with $3.50 passengers aboard. This
monster of the sea is $50 feet in
length, 100 feet in width and has dis
placement of $1,000 tons. On the trial
cruise of two days its engines devel-
oped 80, 600 horsepower, making an
average speed of more than % nautical
miles an hour. This giant of the
ocean is SO unwieldly that it required
20 powerful tugs to dock it after reach
ing its birth in the port of New York.
All modern steamships are veritable
floating palaces, and in its luxurious
appointments the ''Vaterland" out
strips its competitors. The grand din
ing saloon which has seating capaci-
ty of 800 guests is finished in white
and gold and the ceiling is supported
by Ionic columns. The cabin, smoking
and lounging-rooms are as richly and
handsomely furnished as wealth and
art can supply.
Some idea OF the enormous number Of
men that are required to man the
"Vaterland" can be gained from the
dispatch from New York Monday sta
ting that 430 stewards and 600 of the
ships fremen are on strike, demand
ing higher wages. The Stewards re-
ceive from S12 to Sl4 per month and
firemen about $40. The entire crew
consists of l, 234 men.

ALLEN FOES W|ERONESS

No one but D. W. Griffith could have gotten a story for the moving pie lures by combining two of the weird poems of Edgar Allen Poe This however has been done with start ling effect in the Averaging Con- science" in which Blanche Sweet appears at the Lamara today. The story is of the mytsery variety, very much so naturally following the Poe poem. and tells in vivid fashion of the Vengeance of the Lord" a guilty conscience, which follows the man who transgresses the divine com mand, Thou shalt not kill.
 The New York Sun said, The most wonderful picture ever seen in New York" The New York Post Beautifully conceived and eXecut ed;" New York Telegraph, Strong est and most unusual film ever shown"
 The two poems taken to make the complete story are The tell tale heart and "Annabell Lee There are very few who have read the story of Annabell Lee but have been charmed with the smoothness of the wording of it and the wonder of the hidden meaning. This is brought out | in the picture.
