All the meeting were well at tended. Every candidate was heard with close attention. The executive committee should have provided more meetings. As much as the people say they do not want the meetings, never theless it is a fact that they really do. And as for the candidates, especially the new ones, they surely want them. The largest attendance of ladies and children was at the Salema and Woodward meetings, both of which were most successfully managed. We agree with Candi date Ford in his high tribute to the presence of the ladies-a part of his speech he always gives be the number of ladies one or more. Barbecued hash seems to be the candidates' food as it was in evidence at all the meetings, being served in connection with bountiful basket picnic dinners at Salem and at Woodward. All the candidates improved in their speeches day by day. , In discussing the educational quiestion Candidate Ford a'ways paid a high tribute to Hon. W; S. Hall whom he designated as the founder of Winthrop college, as If any voter forgets that Au gust 26 is the day of the first primary, it certainly is not the fauit of the candidates who told it in season and out of season. The thanks of every citizen of the county are due to Mr. Mc Donald for the admirable way he discharged the duty imposed on him by the executive committee in laying the improvement of the court house before the ..people. His earnestness and unselfish ness in the matter are highly com mendable. Though of jen put last, he always held the cdosest attention of all his hearers. There is nothing that will gladden his heart more than to ha'e the peo ple vote "Yes" tn August 26 in regard to the court house. Several embryonic candidates for two years hence were found. The speeches of Candidates Hood and Wylie were short and to the point. They were the hap piest fellows in the whole party, and the fear of not being left whetted their appetites and in creased their smiles. Two good officers-these who have no oppo sition for re-election. The only prophecy we will make is that Capt. Johnson will easily head the legislative ticket. Many kind expressions of his valuable services as a member of the house were heard. While the crops in some places were a little off, we think it can e safely stated that the crop ditions for the conty are a average. Especially is this of corn. notes will have to be er.
