Hon- ) Walter DoarAmong the representatives elect of Oeorgetown county appears the nawae of Editor J Walter Doar ot the Outlook. Mr. Doar is a young man of brains and energy and we feel confident that the interests ot his constituents will not suffer at his hands. I The Outlook is one ol our bright 1 i . ?

Hey ward in the second primary justifies the confidence of his friends in believing that a man "fresh from < the soil", not aligned with any of the old factious, would win out over his competitors, all of whom have ligured more or less conspicuously in public lift. Capt. Ileyward is u farmer, or a planter, whichever it may please one to teen him. We do not recognize the distinction. He has never held office before, and thousands of voters, for this very reason, turned Consumption The only kind of consumption to fear is " neglected consumption." People are learning that consumption is a curable disease. It is neglected consumption that is so often incurable.

Strange and incomprehensible as this may seem to ;those who cherish the delusion that ;it costs nothing to get out a newspaper, yet it can be established as a fact by referring to our books. This is a condition of affairs that is unusual and it is due to the fact that many of our subscribers M ho, however willing they might have been, were actually unable on account of the crop failure last year to pay the small amounts due us. We realize the situation and, sympathizing deeply with the misfortunes of our patrons, did not cut off any subscribers from # our list or even press them for payment. This entailed a heavy expeuse upon us and we have now reached a point where we can bear it no longer. The people of this county have been blessed with a good crop year and , we believe that every man ou our list will be able to pay us what is due if he chooses, to. do so. True in each case it is only h small sum, seldom more than a dollar or two; but when the. fact is considered that one thousand of thcs<' little accounts amount to $1,000, one can realize what it means to us. We make this appeal in all kindness; it is not pleasant to write on such subjects; but we hope what has been said will be carefully considered .and duly beaded. Within a few weeks we shall begin sending out bills to all delinquent subscribers on our list To save us this trouble and expense and yourselves the annoyance we respectfully urge that all who are indebted to us for the paper come forward at once and settle. The Graded School If there be one institution in which the }>eople of Kingstroo should take a perpetual pride and work to Igotner lor its support aim upuunai ' the high position of chief magistrate. Governor Heyward is a young man, , comparatively speaking, being we believe, less than forty years of age. In politics he has been a Conserva, tive in the true sense of the word, belonging neither to the Reform nor the Haskellite faction. By birth and breeding he represents the highest type of a South Carolina gen! tleman. Personally Capt Heyward [ is possessed of charming manners, ^ culture and refinement. He will ! make an ideal governor of * whom ! every South Carolinian may be justly proud. 1 . Read and Heed. While we distinctly disapprove of 1 the practice of "dunning" delinquent subscribers through the columns of a newspaper, yet there are i1 times when the necessity for doing so seems to be inevitable. The number of people who have read The Record for a year or more without paying anything toward the support of the paper runs up into the hundreds and the time has come when we are forced either to curtail this list or go out of business. It costs us on an iaverageone hundred dollars a month ing, that institution is the Kings tree Graded school. Like everything else worth striving for the evolution of the graded school from the village academy with its two teachers and half a hundred pupils has been attended with no small degree of difficulty and discouragement. Up to a few years ago the school seemed to have reached a stationary period, each year showing about the same number of pupils and .very little advancement otherwise. Then came something like an awakening along educational lines. The building was enlarged and improved, au additional teacher employed, aud?best of all?the graded system adopted. Last year, as the large attendance justified it, the number of teachers was increased to four and, we understand, the maximum enrollment numbered 130 pupils, a decided increase over all previous yours. On next Monday another scholastic year will begin. There i3 every reason to believe that this session will bo a remarkably successful one, as the school seems to have well advanced upon a period of prosperity and progress. The new faculty has been selected with great, care, every member composing it being a trained and successful teacher. The patronage will will doubtless be better than last year, as very liberal inducements are offered to out of town Every year there are pupils from Williamsburg going to preparatory schools in other counties. This is not as it should be, when there is an excellent graded school right here at home. If we did not believe the graded 6chool to be thorough and worthy in every respect we should certainly withhold our unqualified endorsement, however reluctant we] should be to do so. From what we know of the school and its management we Relieve it to be the equal of any preparatory educational institution in this part of the State and it is indeed a pleasure that we can conscientiously make this statement.
