TTadnesday, September 21,1898 BLLERBE'S NOMINATION Governor IClIeibe has been nominated bv something ]ike 5,000 majority ov*r Featberstone. A shidv of the election res urns 5t? interestiog. If i his election means any one tbiug it means that the people of the State are against the dispensary and its management. They are disgusted with its corrnpliou They are ready to smash it as a political machine. Mr. Featherstone's vote does not show that the people of the State are in favor of prohibition, bat, it is not hard to discover that they are against the dispensary, and tnat tuey will take prohibition rather tban tolerate the dispensary andjits abominable administration. The belief is wide spread that the institution is used in politics, and it is becomirg almost enoagn to beat a candidate to have the dispensary and its managers working for snch candidate. So intense is the feeling against the concern that many voters will give it a VViiCUCTU Ok vuttuw - la i.v?uv?.| Many people voted against Ellerbe for ] this reason. Ellerbe did a great deal to wipe out i factional lines, and a great many, j bitterly opposed to the dispensary, | voted for him on this sole ground-Two years from now, we believe that the successful candidate will be the man who will come out boldly against iuc uife^ciioai y ~3 ju puuvnjii., as wholly against tbe very gecius of ouc government, ani as a corrupt political machine whollv beyond the hope of reforming and purifying on account of the very nature of it. Ic is wrong in principle for tbe Government to be engaged in aay business enterpi ise, and this sound truth w.?l be the winning principle when fairly presented ^to the people of the State. Tf- tTTill Ka "c?cno ?n 1 QAO jli >vm iuv joouv *vvv* Some talk is going the rounds that the war with Spain is not over, and that hostilities will be revived after the peace commission shall have met in "Paria Thin <tJcor)inn ic hsicpri nnr?n language credited to Gen. Joe Wheeler. The rumor is that tb3 American commissioners will demand the whole Plulippine gronp, and the conclnsioa is jumped at that Spain wiil refuse to accode to ;his. Gen. Wheeler is reported as saying that the war is not over, and that "Spain will want ns to oivo tin the Philmmnes. and we will ^ never do that." It is argaefi that Gen. ~s"Wheeler has been in close loach with the President and that be has really given expression to the President's view?. We are icelined lo the opinion that Spain has enough of was with the United S' ites, and that she will accede to aay demands rather than lose the remainder of her nary. It is greatly to. ba regretted that "Priocirlorif air ?e V>?T7?rirr or\ mn/?^ JL IVCXU^Ut ULVAiUiWJ iO JAM V IV UAUVM trouble in securing a commission to investigate th? charges against the War Department. Gen. Gordon declined first of the nine men appointed * and nearly all of the others are following suit. Now is the time for the investigation. The a nicker tke commis sion can get to work, the more satisfactory will be the investigation. BUCKHBAD JOTTINGS. fr*,/ ' The election is over, and I hear that our present Governor has l?een reelected bv nearly 5,000 majority. I j think it a sad thing that Mr. Feather- i stone was not the choice of the people. The people's vote in 1892 was very different from the last election; they then had abont 11,000 majority for prohibition. The people have not had *heir will as recorded in 1892. Mr. ifeatherstone has made a manly stand and fight for the cause of prohibition in our down-trodden, dear old State. It is reported tnat liquor was used at a certain precinct for electioneering purposes in this couDty. Mr. John R. Feaster, of the first j regiment, S. C. V., arrived here in the i neighborhood over two weeks ago ' from Chickamauga, where heba-.i been sick with typhoid malarial fever for many weeks at the Leiter hospital. He told ;:ie shcrtlv after his arrival at Mr., a. . UJay.on's mat no weigoea ociv about 100 pounds; but he is improving. A sid accidenr, resulting is the death of Air. Charles Porter, occurred lasti iloudav. His whole right arm wab drawn in a gin at Mr. John G. Wolling's and cut off. He died on Wednesday. There were three doctors attending him. His funeral took place at weaver ureeK uapust v^uurcu, 01 which he was a member. His family, brothers, sisters and friends have the sympathy of the entire community. He was a cierout Christian. "In the midst of life we are in death." We hare bad a good many fair day# lately, but before that we had nearly a month's rainy weather. Capt. T, M. Lyles Is visiting his J Htejghters, 3irg. A. E.

F.Hilarr The first primary elec- j t tioD is now over and I atu now out of I < it. 1 have no ill will towards auy one j or think that the result of the piimary j ( is in any way unjust. I don't blame } anyone bat myself for nay defeat. All I I ask now is a Jittle space in vour , valuable paper to try and set myself right before the people in regard to a' j report that was said to be started by j a neighbor of .mine, and partly used I on the stump by Mr. Wylie against j i me. The only thipg I regret is that I : j didn't correct it while out on the can- 1 I vass, as I bad agreed to simply an- 1 I nounce my candidacy and was advised by my friends to pay ;?o attention to I it- Jl ! The report that was circulated i j against me is that I am holding five or six offices and had a fine p'ace and j i was iadependant and did n-. c ne.?d the \ J office. JNow tnat is par'. ? ?; aim | I partly not true. As to tfce o 2ccs I \ | now hold, first,! am on the o>ard of [ i scpervisors of registrairon. Jow we < will see what that pays?c-ne hand red 2 ! and fifty dollars for twc years. I \ have to ride twenty-five miles and pat \ in three days each month. I have to i [ pay board for myself and horse. That i | is the best paying office I bold. I am ( j chairman of the township pension ] board, which does not pay one cent, j I have to ride twenty-five miles to : Winnsboro and pay my own expenses / and lose the time for myself and ( ! horse. I am clerk of the county j ! pension board, which pays eight doi- j lars per year, and it generally takes seveu or eight trips to Winnsooro to ? get it fixed up, and it takes more than t tbe eight dollars to pay expenses. I am also notary public, which does not pay roe two dollars a year; and ! am also a postmaster in the county, ' which does not pay for the salt ] in one's bread. Now all of these little ] j offices, except supervisor of registration, wa3 put on me without my asking for them and taken only as an 1 accomodation to my neighbors. ' ( Now as to my being indepcndant and having plenty, that is not so. I , have a small place of one hundred ard fifty acres of thin land ou which, with tbe assistance of the said many offices, ' I try to make an honest living. -My j house was burned down three years a^o. I collected some insurance on it , aud built another, and had to borrow - money and haven't finished my house j nor finished payiog back the money I ( borrowed. My neighbors were very s kind to me and assilted me in savin# what I had in ray house, for which I will always be thaukful to them. < Every neighbor I had for several ( miles around came to my assistance , except the one that is said to have i started said report against mc. clc was at work not far off and went to 1 an opening where be could see what j house it was on firo, and when he ( found out it was mine went bacfc to his work.

' Now the seasoa is over, the lias been run, and some of the candidates, . like the peaches, kave been preservtd ' for future use, whiie otbers, we fear, have soured, owing to unfavorable I conditions.

Mr. Charles Porter's Arm Torn From llis Hotly. A sad and in all probability fatal accident occurred early yes'.erday morning at Mr. J. G. Polling's public ginnery. Mr. Charley Porter, the enginee*, in p.is-iag from i he engine to the pre-s room, found a piece of bagging entangled in the shafting. He took out his pocket knife and attempted to, cut the bagoi^g loo?e, when his arai w^s seized between the bagging and shaft and he too was drawn on the death trap with the bagging and was carried round' at the rate of two hundred revolutions per mintue, ?nd until his arm was completely twisted from his body, taking off all thj flesh up to his shoulder jjinr, leaving a naked piece of bone piotrading fbout eight inches long. As soon as his arm came off he was thrown violently to the floor, wh;n it wa? found that every vestige of his clothing bad been torn off by the shafting except his socks and fhoes, and they were badly torn. Mr. Porter regaled consciousness iu a few moments after being thrown to the floor and lying there denuded of all hi* clothing, battered, bruised, bleeding and one arm gone, he looked up to wnere tne norrioiy maiuareu limb was dangling on the sbafr, and exclaimed, "Oh, my poor arm." After that heart rending; exclamation, he bore his sufferings with a fortitude unparallelied and astonishing" to those who crazed on ids fearfully mutilated at:d quiverinz body. As soon after the accident as possible medical aid was brought to his assistance. Drs. Coleman, Crosby and Jarne-s Douglass were in atrendance. After a sljort consultation they decided to amputate the limb at the shoulder joint *ith but iittle hopes of any good re*ults. They went to work at once, and in the spac? of one hmr the op3ration was performed, and to the amazement of surgeons and spectators he s-ood it remarkably well. He roused up and regained consciousness before he was taken from the ampala:i:i? tab'.e ana asked for a s imulant. Up to 1) o'clock la=t night he was ioingas well, or far better than anv of us"bad hoped for. When we left Drs.
