Dr Ga^cpte is a thoroughly experienced dentist and all who have work to he done in that lino will do well to call on him while in Conway. Some people says it does no good to boom a town too much. Did you ever hear of a progressive town without its o ingboomed. We need more booming, and less "bumming." Let every citizen of Conway take an interest in building up the town, and lend a helping hand in every enterprise that will induce more capital in our midst. ^The Superintendent of Education recommends that the State College be abolished and that the buildings be turned over to a normal college for males and females. It ifc not at all probable that this recommendation will be- adopted, because the administration is pledged to a liberal support of the college, but if it should be there will be a little inducement for other towns to bid for the location of the girl's industrial school. v - ./- . v. - - On lasi Thursday while a number of r^p^from Marion .wQjcfr-flfft Muli. ning near Mullins, a gun in the hands of one of the party was accidentlv discharged and the entire load lodged in the face of Mr. E.

A South Carolina editor makes the following appeal to those indebted to him: "Wanted, at thia oflico, anything and everything that can be used by human beings for what is due us.

Kershaw, of the fifth circuit, whoso term expires next June, has declined to be a candidate for re-election on account of his failing health. It is generally believed that Ernest Cary, of Aiken, will be elected as his successor. Judge Kershaw's services on the bench have been most acceptable to the people of the State and he will retire to private life with the consciousness of having discharged his duties faithfully and well, and enjoying the full confidence of those who have delighted to honor him in the past. o The recent session of the South Carolina Conference in Charleston appointed a committee, consisting of John O.

The men composing the -fedmniittoe are men of affa rs and withal prudent and consi lerate, and we think, will exorcise great caution and prudence in inaugurating it. What are we waiting for? iRn't it time for Conway to wake up and get a more on her. Go to work with a view to build up the town. It is very nice to hare a good time, but we are getting behind at it. Let's have a little more hustle. With a very little effort Conway can be made one of the busiest towns in the State. Conway needs more Mfa and more people. What shall we do to bring these things about? If our citizens will go to work with a public spirit, these things will inevitably come. One | iUALD, Til UK enterprise brings on another. Let the public spirited men of Conway get together and discuss the estab lishincnt of some factory. There is no better site in the State for u canning factory or weod factory than Conway.

Von may be sure that I am, as you say, the friend of every boy, willing to heip himself: but my experience teaches me that I cannot do you a better service than to advise yon not to join the great army of office seekers.'' Little River Locals. since Cleveland's election and the consequent (?) advance in cotton and other produce, our merchants and farmers (those who still have theirs on hand) put on a cheerful look, and declare that never before was business more lively, and prospects more promising. One of our enterprising farmers, Mr. II. J. Vereen now has on hand over sixty bales of cotton of his own make which he is still holding for higher prices and expects to realize this before the season closes. Tlie 'Clam trade" is becoming quite lively. The clams are going and the money is coming.
