Some Newsy News from Lower Chero kee County. (Correspondence of The Ledger.) Etta Jane. Dec. 7.—Rev. \V. R, Owings preached at Salem yesterday. He chose the 10th chapter of John as the basis of his remarks and couched his subject under the head of "The relation of Christ to his people.” His discussion was one of his charac teristic appeals to the unconverted, j He received the individual attention 4 of his hearers. On account of the bad weather the congregation was unusually small. A collection was taken up to educate colored ministers to work In the home and foreign fields among the colored people and $5.00 was realized. This is as it should be. The white people of this country owe the colored man a debt they have never paid him. Although his cutting himself loose from us was one of the cuusual results of the war it is time that he be returned to the worship his fathers enjoyed in days of yore. As long as the pure Anglo-Saxon blood runs in the views of Southern white men just so long will the col ored man merit his respect for that loyalty be exhibited when the coun try was convulsed in war. On the first Sabbath in January communion will be held at Salem. Miss Mamie Lindsay began her school lust Monday and notwith standing the snow and rough weather ught all week. Some of our neighbors’ boys are on the swopping stock. The Headlight has kindly furnished us with an acceptable ticket for the new county officers. Just as soon as the new county is organized I want Joe Cook elected permanent chairman of the horse ex change association. Bill Vander- ford and Jim Garrett occupy similar position in Union and Spartanburg respectively. •‘Jay” is learning Miss Monroe to play the banjo. Several misprints occurred in my letter last week. If the office boys don’t mind I’ll send my lighting lieutenant up to see them. The snow fell to a considerable depth last Tuesday night and Wed nesday and since then we have been enjoying suitable winter. What have the gossips done with Governor Evans’ wedding? Its time they would let us know whether or not his girl has kicked him. Silence is painful. Sam McDowell fell into the head foremost last Thursday running the battoun across, little steamer has made several down the river lately. Mr. Ed H. DeCump come down last Saturday to attend the new county speaking at Owens’ ford. The snow being several inches deep on the ground and the weather cor respondingly cold our people did not tarn out. Our neighbor and progressive farmer J. A. M. Estes killed two fine home raised hogs last Tuesday. They weighed 408 and 380 pounds respectively. He got 1(5 gallons of lard from them. Cutting and hauling wood and making fires constitute the most of last week’s work. Your correspondent has been on the sick list for several days. Sore tiirout and cold is the trouble. The mail boys arc having a sweet time now. The Union mail missed two trips entirely last week, and most of the time the carrier was be hind schedule time. Rev. Mr. Moody’s comments are truly gratifying to newspaper corres pondents and others enjoyed in such work, when they direct their efforts to the betterment of society, both temporarily and spiritually. He claims substantially that ho has no greater agent in his v.ork than the average newspaper correspondent who properly represents him in the public print. He cites a case in St, Louis in which a culprit was con verted and become one of the most useful and influential members of the chuch and society as well as honored citizens all from reading newspaper reports of his sermon. Contrast this good with the harm done by lying correspondents and editors whose whole aim is to mislead, misrepre sent and stygmatize the sacred truth and render it not only inoperative for good but contemptnble in the right of all decency and respectability. Tlie well meaning correspondent will fully appreciate any responsible posi tion he has obtained and the use or abuse of power entrusted to him. It is very gratifying, I must con fess, to hear some conscientious reader refer to something said in a newspaper correspondence in which j the writer builded better than lie knew. It always happens. Some of our Sabbath schools are ! preparing to go into winter quarters. | The North Pacolet Interdenomina tional S. S. Convention will meet at Getnsemene on the 27th insl. Pro gramme will be publishe 1 next week. The new county election will have passed before this letter appears in print and I expect »o rend a glowing account of a magnificent victory for the new county m the next issue of The Lkdoek I will say, however, that let mutters go as they may, our peo ple) must lay aside all their bicketiogs and work for the good of the masses. It is to he hopedthat no fertile attempt will be made by the deleated party, to thwart the will of the majority as honestly expressed at the ballot box. Any attempt of this kind will meet an ignominious defeat and consign the actors to perpetual oblivion. Uur people were never more determined. From our point of observation the people of this (Union county) have all to gain and nothing to loose by getting in the new county. We have a prospect of getting our taxes re duced and none whatever of having them increased. So “drire out th« cart.” I have received a roll of Company A. 12th S. C.
