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.

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

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.

MRj CEOSJtii THANKS TH? VOTERS. j (
V>*. 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. He worked agaiost ine at ?
my own box and it is reported that (
I he fi:led out tickets for parties that <
couldn't read and marked my name
ont wben the parties asked to vote for
me.
I now tbank my friends who supported
?e in the primary and feel as
grateful to them as if 1 had been 3

upporters, botk at my home box and
all over the county, were among the
best people in the coanty. And I say
this much for Mr. Corlee, that he
treated me in every respect becoming J
a gentleman. I am how out of politics ;
and am glad to say I go out with a '
clear conscience, having done nothing
or said anything that I am ashamed 1

The candidates, peaches and rairi
which have been so much in evidence
this snmmer seem to have gone together,
and times are easier thau they
ViotTo >>oon f.-vr crime time. What a
ferment tbey have kept U3 in! We :
were endeavoring to manipulate the
peaches, the candidates were manipulating
us, while the rain daily envel- .
oped us all, dampening our ardor
somewhat, but not seeming to affoct (
the spirits of the smiling hai < '-ker*. '
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. I hope that the selections ;
made will prove a "survival of tLe

The crops in this section are fairly
go3d, aud since the weather has cleared 1
cotton is being rapidly gathered. Much '

A HOE 2IBLE ACCIDENT.
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. D. uglass and Coleman were still
in attendance and doing all that sym1
