The unveiling of the memoria
to Henry Timrod May the is
was an event that the Stat<
should feel proud of, for it marke<
the State's appreciation at last o
one of its most gifted sons.
May day in New Orleans wa
marked by an unusual event fo
the Crescent City. Presiden
McKinley who is now taking
transcontinental tour - gave th
city a novel sensation as he wa

then it ought to be avoided

most equal force to shootir

shooting under the former ci
cumstances have been very man
Recent events in college at]
letics have caused a great de
of interest in the subject on t1
part of the general public, nor
it any surprise that thoughtf
jeople are asking where is t]
good in such games where
many irregularities exist. V
have all along been slightly
favor of the encouragement
such contests but we are changi
our opinion in the light of rece
developments.
Our types made it -ppear th
our sights for the county fa
were much higher than they real
are in the matter of the cont
bution from the town coun<
We have all the time thoug
that the council ought to be ve
-liberal in its support of the is
but $500 was just ten times
large a sum as weihad exp~ei
t all the w *t tb
wo give $50 and we feel ec
fident that they will give tl
amount. Should they do so th
contribution together with t
subscriptions already secured
town woould make $250 from i
town and it is quite probable tI
this sum would still be increas
by contributions from those w
have not yet subscribed.
On our first p age is a sugg<
tion from Mr. Jennings in regs
to the establishment of a soldie
home, and as is always chari
teriatic of him he places i

In this matter Judge Buchan
is due full credit for having talb
the first step. He first agital
the establishment of such a hot
and it was he who first made i
suggestion that if the soldie
home be established Winnsb<
should offer her beautiful park
a site for the same. As suggesi
in our last issue it remains:
the State to determine whethet
will have a soldier's home but
the event it should so determi
Winnsboro should be prepared
get it. We are satisfied that i
suggested property would be
most desirable one for a soldie
home, and we believe that
would readily be granted for i
said purpose. But to make si
of the matter, though it is
course a good while before a
final action can be taken, we si
gest that the town council past
resolution showing its willingn
to offer the said property fo:
- soldiers' home in the eventI
State should determine to er
one. While such action on I
part of the council would in
measure be binding, yet it wou
we believe, be readily adopted
a unanimous vote of the citize
of the town. Now while the m.
ter of the establishment of a s
diers' home is being largely d
cussed in the various papers
the State is the time for the cot
cil to speak out, for it would gi

PROF. DAVIS NOMINATED.
The State recently contained a
very full article from Prof. R.
Means Davis on the Charlotte
speech of our junior senator. Im
mediately upon its appearance
there came from some one at
Ridgeway the following admira
ble suggestion:
"As a thorough student and
scholar of the political history
and economical questions of our
State and nation, a true, able
Demecrat of deep and sincere
convictions and a man peculiarly
fitted and equipped to discuss and
elucidate the important issues up
for solution just at this juncture
of affairs,,Prof. R. Means Davis
of the South Carolina College
would be a worthy man to suc
ceed John L. McLaurin in the
United States senate next year.
The people of the State would be
r instructed and improved on the
t questions of the day and our pri
Imary system maintained at a
E high standard with such men in
3 the campaign. Prof. Davis is not
a politician nor is he seeking
office, but could not the State do
v herself timely pride by sending
e such a home-made, South Caro
a lina-bred-and-raised son to repre
i sent her in the nation's great
if councils? His native county,
1- Fairfield, would like to see him
g nominated, and what say you
g Richland, to second the nomina.
- tion?"
g The editor of the State in com:
r- menting on the same, approved
. the suggestion in the following
strong editorial:
- "We are not in the business o
%I candidate-making, and the time iE
e early to offer nominations for th
is United States senate; but we ca1
al not help saying that our Fairfie<
i1 correspondent has made a mos
o admirable . suggestion. Ther
e can be no question of the excep
in tional fitness of R. Means Davi
of for a seat in the Unites Stato
ig senate, and all who know hir
nt will be sure that in that positio
he would make a record of whic
South Ca.olina would be prou<
at As professor of history and pc
r litical economy in South Carolin
y college he has been for man
- years a deep student of the ques
i. tions, political and economi
it which must be dealt with i
y Washington, and besides bein
ir, thoroughly informed he is abli
s and besides being able be -is reli~
y Democraey arid eminently qual
- fied to expond -and defend then
as he is also steeped in the histori
ir sprit of South Carolina and t
e the best ideals of the State. S
n we say without hesitation that
e merit and capacity alone were i
at be conisidered such a man a
d Means Davis could and would I
o chosen to succeed Senator M<
Laurin. But do the voters want
candidate who is not a politicia'
- who will not flatter nor traffic
d the pursuit of office? And woul
s Prof. Davis consent to become
- candid1ate? These questions y
e answer. It would be an idea
e. thing to take a man from the pr<
n fessorial desk and put him at tl
n desk of legislation as William ]
d Wilson was taken. But is
e, possible in South Carolina undi
e our primary system, which ri
r's quires that the man must see
o the office rather than the offic
s seek the man? And would Pro
d Davis give up what is practical]
r a life position, and & congei
it one,to contest for even a Unite
in States senatorship.
e "Withont knowing his views<
o his wishes, but that the sugger
e tion is so good that it must
a conscience be commended, v
r's present the nomination as
it comes to us."
e The editor of the Orangebui
e Times and Democrat has summe
f up the whole situation in a nu
y shell by saying that "Prof. Day
g- is the most suitable man y,
a named for the place." In this y~
s most heartily concur.
ct JENKINSVILLE ITEMS.
e Jenkinsville, May 1st, 1901.
o First and foremost I must me:
' tion the marriages that have tak
7 place during my absence. I a
s surprised to know that notice
the marriage of Mr. Clarke M
Gill and Miss Hattie Burley bol
of Monticello, has not found i
way to your columns 'ere this,
it took place on the 18th of Fe]
eruary last. Weddings are not<
esuch frequent occurrence her<
- abouts as not to be noised abroa
-so better late than never.
I fOn the afternoon of the 181
ofj April at the home of the bride
we. mother, Mr. John Irby and Mit
y Blanche Sloan were united i
marriage by the Rev. Mr. Spit
d ner. Only a few relatives an
u friends of the young couple wei
dered them at the home o tie
groom, who at present occupies
the house of Mrs.'Laura Gibson
near Little River. A number of
useful presents were received by
them, and many good wisies at
tend the launching of their barque
on the matrimonial sea.
Mrs. Bennett Hancock died at
the home of her daughter, .Mrs.
Mary Murphy on the 23rd ult.
She had been an invalid for seve
ral years, and came here to be
with her daughter during her last
days. Her remains were interred
in the old family burying ground
in Union county. A husband and
seven children survive her. One
of her sons, Dr. James Hancock,
is a prominent physician of Union.
Mre. Lou Younginer, is on a
visit to her home, having spent
the last two weeks in Columbia
where she expects to reside for
some time.
Mrs. Martha Mayo, w .,has
been livin for several
her daughter, Mrs. Ra
Feasterville is visiting her r,
Miss Sallie Chappell at thi e.
Mrs. Lily Holley stopped or a
few days with relatives here on
her way to Florida not long since.
She has been living at Pacolet,
Spartanburg county, but since the
recent death of her father, Mr. L.
Hunter, decided to go to Florida
where her brothers and sisters
have been making their home for
some time. She was acco ied
by her two daughters, and
Estelle, aged respectfully and
6 years.
Miss Estelle Holley is visiting
relatives in Chester.
Misses Madie and Lois Chap
pell, Misses Stella and Eunita
Ruff are at home, their sools
having closed.
The school taught by Miiss
t Eloise McMeekin near Wallace
Sville closed three weeks since.
- The school here at Jenkinsville
a closed on Friday last, Mr. Thoma
son, the teacher, leaving on Mon
a day following for his home in
I Laurens. The closing exercises
were quite interesting, a pPam
L being successfully rendereo by
the pupils who have been an
a ized into a literary and deting
I society.
Rev. E. A. McDowell 'expects
to leave with his family in.f few
"days to take up his W! in
gNinety Six where he~ e e
of a church. He has ot r
hin Uni n~unt.- We e
that he will be as happy as
~ much appreciated elsewher as
,he has been here. We wer all
c much attached to him and family.
C) Rev. Mr. Wells, of Georgetown,
0 S. C. has succeeded Mr.- McDow
ell as pastor of Little River1. and
0 Beaver Creek churches. He comes
s highly recommended, and we hope
* to prosper under his ministra
~tions.
a We can scarcely believe that
' again we are to have fruit after
" having such an abundance last
year, as we are seldom so fortu
anate as to have it two years in
esuccession, but the trees are laden
with fruit of almost every variety.
Pears will be scarce I think.
e Some of the farmers are re
~.planting cotton, so cotton seed are
t in demand. They have watched
r and hoped and waited fcr the
sprouting of first planting until
they deem it best not to longer
* delay.
