however, is contradicted by those
who say that Jim Norman was stand

from the house while this pastime

WILL BE COUNTY.
Promoters Carry Election by 5 to 1.
Mccormick County Seat.

Mccormick, Dec. 29.-By an over
whelming vote, 619 to 81, the pro-
moterS Of the "McDuffie" county
movement won out in the election
held to-day in the portions of Able
vile, Edgefield and Greenwood coun-
ties affected. The proposed new
county territory in each old county
gave more than the two-thirds in
favor of "McDuffie" county, which,
after expected favorable action by
the General Assembly, will be South
Carolina's forty-fifth county, the
Palmetto States ''baby." This town
will be the county seat.
The vote in detail, as reported, is
as follows: Abbeville, 375 for and
61 against; Edgefeld, 1913 for and
23 against; Greenwood, 81 for and
13 against.
This is regarded as a great victory.
1t comes ten years after the first
election, which was also by an over
whelming vote carried for the new
county, which lost out on account Of
a very slight error in the matter Of
territory. due to a slight inaccuracy
in the survey. The territory this
time has been accurately surveyed
and the people Of this territory now
look confidently to the General AS
sembly for the formation Of their
much-needed and cherished new
county.
The fight has been long, hard and
tedious, but everybody feels fully re-
paid for the part that he contributed
towards this overwhelming victory

KAISER GLORIES IN ARMS.
Points Out Germany is Still Fighting
on Enemy's Territory.

Berlin, Jan. Emperor William,
in New Years message to the army
and navy, asks them to face the new
year unfiinchingly and to look for
ward to new deeds and new victories
for the beloved fatherland. The
message reads:
After five long months of heavy
and hot fighting, we enter the new
year.
brilliant victories have been
gained and great successes achieved
by the German army almost every
where on the territory Of the enemy,
while repeated attempts of our oppo-
nents to swarm on German territory
have failed.
My ships have covered themselves
with glory on every sea, and the
crews have proved not only that they
know how to fight victoriously, but
to die like heroes when overwhelmed
by superior forces.
Behind the army and the navy the
entire nation stands in unexampled
harmony, prepared to sacrifice it's
hearts blood for the sacred domestic
hearth which we are defending
against outrageous invasion. Much
has come to pass in the old year, but
the enemies are still firmly kept low.
Always fresh hordes are rolling up
against our army and the army of
our faithful allies, but their numbers
do not frighten us. Although the
times may be serious and the task
before us a heavy one, we look for
"ard into the future with the firmest
confidence.
Next to Gods wise guidance,
trust to the matchless bravery Of the
army and navy, and know myself to
be as one with the entire German
nation. Therefore, let us face the
new year unilinchngly, looking for
ward to new deeds and new victories
for our beloved ratherland.

won the confidence and esteem of
many persons. He had completed
his term and been discharged. He
attempted to catch moving train

him, severing both arms and one ear.
He says his father lives at the ad-
dress given above.
