At the time when the political pot became stirring in the spring in county matters, the tormer opportunity seemed to have disappeared, so that he presented his name for re election, expecting to follow the for- ( tunes of the campaign through. But , latterly, the opportunity was revived and he has definitely dicided upon renoving from old Fairfield at the end of the present year. Mr. Meares stated his feeling in the matter then, to be, that the right course was to leave the field open for those who, when elected, could serve (he county without the annoyance and expense attending a special election later on. We concur in this view of tbe matter while we doubtless agree with the j i ~ V * ** Ani? raodorj in rP.

Mr. Editor: There are numerons candidates for the various offices in the county, and the paople will soon be called upon to decide who shall fill them. It is a responsible duty that rests upos them, and it is supposed, as intelligent citizens, that they will cast their ballots for those best qualified to fill the offices to which they aspire. Since the factional lines have hepn onned out. the asDirant for office cannot lay claim to your suffrages because he was a factional leader or a strong adherent of "Ben Tillman", but must stand or fall on bis merits. It is incumbent upon you to select the best man offering for each aod every office, irrespective of factional lines. Of the various offices to be filled th;re i3 one, ani only one, in the list that requires a man who has enjoyed professional training to fill it; and tbat is the office of County Superintendent of Education. The man to fill this office fully and successfully as anticipated by the "school law," must be a tcachcr, and not a farmer, surveyor or preacher. His duties briefly are to supervise the teaching and teacher3 of the conntv. ??i ibe man to do this to the best odvatitage must be ,tcacher and highly cducaied. Now, look at the list of aspirauts for this office and you will find only one disciple of that much abused pro fession?"only one aspirant for this professional position "who can conscientiously say that "I fulJy come up to the requirements of the law," and that is W. L?on Kosborough. Mr. Kosborough graduated in the class of '91 at E*"kine College (one of the oldest chartered colleges in South Carolina), and since his graduation ha3 been engaged in teaching in this county and also io 2iorth Carolina. In addition to his qualifications as a teacher, he is a voung man of high moral character, a consideration that should not be overlooked in making your selectien for this offie. You can cast your ballots for him with the full assurance that he is entirely worthy of your fullest confidence und support. August 3, 1898. Yater. How's This!
