It's an old trick for a discredited pditician to under-ratc his opponents. So when you bear a candidate with several opponents blatantly claiming everything and I masting that he will ''g?? in on the tirst ballot," the chance.* are that the In wistful one is actually scared out of his I loots that le won't get in at all.

The "Independent*' Den.oi rats, by fusion with the Republicans of Tennessee, have won out over the unspeakable Patterson. This means that Tennessee will probably v elect a Republican Chief Kxecu- P tive, but almost anv one would lie ^ t preferable to Patterson, the man who made the Governor's office 0 1 a clearing-house for thieves and a crooks of high and low degree, t Thus the indomitable spirit of the 0 lamented Carmack still lives trium- ^ a phantlv to overwhelm the band of conspirators who tried in vain to > destroy ins influence bv an act of i i foul assassination which must cause the truly brave sons of Tennessee to Im>w their heads in shame for i generations to come. We respectfully call attention to s the fact that all notices of a political nature whether "boosting" I a particular candidate or cards of thanks or clippings from other newspapers favoring certain candi' dates, must l>e paid for at ad! vertising rates. This applies to , State and county candidates. For 1 >ur protection we were forced to i adopt this rule several years ago, ' as the week or two preceding an ^ ( election the paper contained very little else than eulogies of some- j , body's favorite candidate.

COMMISSION LETS CONTRACT \ To Page A Reeves of OUlon to Survey Seceding Territory. At a meeting of the annexation commission held Monday, Messrs. p Page and Reeves of Dillon were employed to make the necessary survey of that portion of Williamsburg, which has petitioned to be annexed to Florence county. The work will be commenced at once. This survey will take in only two sides of the territory named in the petition, as the Government river survey on one side and Florence county line on the other will be accepted. The length of line to be surveyed is supposed to p run about fifteen miles and the territory seeking annexation contains some eighty square miles. Summer Excursionists.

Applause was freely, though not boisterously bestowed, the home candidates naturally coming in for a more hearty greetingthan the visitors. The entire meeting consumed only a little more than two hours. The visiting candi| dates were all entertained at the homes of Kingstree's hospitable peo pie and if anyone was overlooked it , was surely his own fault,for arrangements were made to take care i of every visiti^^iember of the campaign part: !y of the candi 1 dates left ^ the afternoon for' Greelyville to attend the meeting1 there Wednesday and mayhap do a little missionary work along the way. i The candidates for the General As- : sembly really have but one issue up- j on which there seems to be any great difference of opinion?that is the Banquo's ghost that will not down;, the same perplexing problem that has been threshed out on the hus- , tings biennially for a score of years and is as near settled today as it was in the beginning of history or ever will be,to the entire satisfaction of a great many people. It looks like a waste of time to be eternally harping on the same string, but the issue seems to be inevitable and then it is a subject which always commands attention when skilfully handled, it matters not how often or how thoroughly the same audience may have i heard the changes rung along the whole diapason. As we gathered! from their expressions yesterday two of the Senatorial candidates, Messrs Carter and Epps, favor State-wide prohibition and would support such a measure should the opportunity' arise. Mr Beasley declared unequiv- j J ocally for local option?which we understand to mean that he would give every county the right to decide the question of prohibition independently of the rest of the State. Of the six candidates for the Lovlbr House three expressed themselves as favoring State-wide prohibition, viz, Messrs Camlin, Chapman and Prosser,while Messrs Chandler and Kellahan announced that fKou fouAro^ 1a/?qI nntiAn in nrpfpr VlltJ lUTVtVU IVVMI V|/W*VM '?* w?v. a ^ ence to State-wide prohibition.
