Jfessrs. Editors: In writing up the
programme for the closing exercises of
my school the name of - Miss Susie
Arnette, as valedictorian, -was left out.
The fault was mine in not giving it in the
programme furnished to the editor. In
the hurry to get it ready for hinr before
leaving I inadvertently overlooked
it. I regret, it very much, and beg
Miss Susie, who is one of my best and
most advanced pupils, to pardon me. <
Her rendition of the valedictory was :
done in a manner highly to her in <
every respect, aud particularly so., :
since Miss Susie has had to devote a 1
good portion of her time during the
session to her afflicted grandmother, 3
Mrs. "Wesley Mayfield. I hope Miss <
Susie and my esteemed friends, her
parents, will deem this a sufficient 1
apology for the oversight. '
A heavy rain, storm attended with
a considerable wind and hail, passed through
this section yesterday evening. Considerable
damage was done to corn

-Vrssis. Editors: It is not for the pnr- ]
pose of entering into a newspaper j
controversy with Mr. Milling tbat I j
write, but solely for what I conceive j
^ ft xx f AIS * o/\nnttr
tv# UC tuc 5JVUU <J I VUl wuiikl!
Let ine say iu the beginning ihat
modesty, and not shame, 'deterred me
from signing my own name to the
article; and in assuming a now <le
plume, a spirit of mischief suggested
the word "aristocrat." Pride would
prevent me from "saying to the world !
I was an aristocratpoverty would j
not.
Mr. Milling's mind, when it tells)
him T am not a farmer, is as much in !
error as when it evolves some of its
queer political conclusions, or when it
quotes Pope's poetry and attributes it
to Shakspeare.
This is Shakspeare:
' "Kerne* uer ^larai, me iues ui .u?au
remember:
fr ? ^ * vf*
Shall we now
Contaminate our finders with base bribes,
And sdl the mighty space of our large
honors
Eor so much trash as mav be grasped thus?
I had rather be a dog and bay the moon,
Than such a Roman!"
I did not intend to imply, lar jess to
assert, any degeneracy in Mr. Milling's
case. I believe him entitled to rank in
the "Upper Ten," and I am glad he
has the manliness to assume it.
That he is not an Oligarch is not due
to any faiinre of effort on his part,
perhaps he will become one on the
! next trial.
Answer 2\o. 1 of Mr. Milling's is,
; with the exception of the clause re
ferring to the appropriation of money
by the United States Government for
. certaiu purposes, entirely erroneous.
The oligarchy refunded the United
States gift of $i90,000 which the Radicals
had stolen, and established by
. statute in 1879 the annex along with the
College, which institution has never
been since '7G a purely literary one l'or
the benefit of a certain class.
In Answer No. 2 he again confounds
i the words agriculturists and TillmanMtes:
as the smallest majority the
j fanners have ever had in the Legislature
was eleven, it must be clear, even
i jo the mind of Mr. Milling", that the
[ trill of the agricultural class has found I
. nrce expression.
Mr. Milling ought to know that the J
1 Y8 hole question of the Agricultural j
' College is opposed by numbers of good j
; and true farmers and a matter of in- ;
difference to hundreds of others. Itj
has merely served as a battle-cry fur ;
Tillman aud his office-seekers.
The oligarchy will 110 doubt allow the ;
i agricultural college to control the ex- j
L perimental stations as soon as it (the :
college) can secure services for that j
' purpose equal to those no*.v employed, i

sal will convince every reasonable man \
of the writer's high order of state?- !

Deau Friend?"What's the matter j
with Fairfield anyhow? Is it possible
that our people living in a county with!
a, negro majority of four to one. have (
forgotten the long bitter, years of j
tyranny and humiliation through "which j.
we passed prior to 1876? I was there t]
during that struggle for the supremacy ,
of the Anglo-Saxon race, and am
proud to remember that I took an
humble part in it under the leadership
of that true and tried old democrat,. (

even forget it. But it seeins that a ]
great many of our friends up there
have forgotten ail about it. and have
determined to risk putting our dear j
old State once more into the hands of
just such a band of plunderers as

ever befall her: but I tell you, jny old
friend, that all this agitation, in my
opinion, will certainly end in the
disruption of the Democratic Party?
the same party that rescued our dear
old State from the rule of the alien,
the stranger, the carpetbagger, the

party, under -whose banner we inarched j
shoulder to shoulder to victory in 1876. j
and whose record since that time lias j
never been smirched by a single act of j:
her standard hearers. And yet when j!
this grand old man, Eration, after
having passed the sweet morning of
his life, his youth and his manhood iu
defence of his native State, offers himself
as a candidate for the office of
Governor?an office which the State I
would honor herself by bestowing
upon him?these very men, or some of
them, who followed him ia the days
that tried men's souls, desert him and

charges against decent men and when
called to account has to admit that
there Is not a particle of truth in them.

a noted fact, in the shoe business.

nil time and again accept these shoddy, . ^
worthless shoes, filled with paper, wood

ill leather shoes? Is it because of an
dea of economy ? We think it cannot be

y, would buy a shoddy shoe with the idea
?f cheapness? The adage, "The best is /
he cheapest," especially applies to shoes. . >
rVe do not mean best here to include the
ughest price fine shoes, but we mean an
lonest, well-made, all-leather shoe at an
ddition of only fifteen or twenty cents
)er pair, against a shoe of same appear-* <}
mce, bat made to deceive. We conclude
,he greater part of the responsibility must
est on the retailer in not informing his
:ustomers how his shoes are made. Many
Manufacturers are making a specialty of
noducing a line of shoddy, worthless
;oods especially for this trade, and so dex;rously
is the leather and foreign substances
manipulated the presence of the
shoddy cannot be known except to the
Manipulator or builder of the shoes. As
)iiyers, we require each manufacturer to
say through their agent bow eacn Kind 01
>hoes is made, we are then in possession of
iacts to convey to our customers. "M
The lack of this information, as to the
component parts of shoes, is no doubt the
reason why so many customers become the
possessors of shoes which otherwise they ?
sould not buy at any price. There is no . -r^g
line Of merchandise which furnishes more *
ibundant opportunities for deception than .
ioes the shoe trade. The complexity of
Ihe business, and the variety in the amount y.
ind kind of material which go to make up fl
che product, afford opportunities lor adul* teration
by the use of shoddy materials in
a manner that the eve Of the CUS
fcomer, and in many instances the eye of
the merchant, is captured, by the looks or
a shoe rather than the worth of its mate- ' ^
rial parts. A shoddy shoe filled with :
paste-board, leather-board and wooctcan ^
be made so alike an honest, solid, allleather
shoe that the nnpracticed eye can- "
tiot discover the difference. Where then v - ^
is the safeguard for the consumer? Buy
Four shoes from dealers of known repute- ;>J
tion of handling nothing but good,.wellmade
shoes. To know his shoes and sell V * - :
them for what they are is the duty of the 'T"
dealer. -Not to expect mountains for mole -lyhills
is the duty of the buyer.
We are now buying our fall and winter * jSj
stock of Shoes of all kinds with our usual S
