An Appeal to Democrats. 1 \ State Chairman Jones Urges them to Vote in General Election for Nominees. ' U Fellow Democrats: In view of the present ap.uhy d which 6eems to exist among the p Democrats ot this State as to n voting at the general election, j, I feel it to be my duty as your | chairman to address you in this es public manner and urge that p you all come out on Nov. 0 and a, Aact unnr xmtna f at? t lia a_ T VCIOI J '/Ml V V'l^o 1 V/i X/ O V/? J, cratic ticket, from governor to S( coroner. Our people have got- tc ten into the way ot thinking th it C! when they have cast their votes w in the primary there is no turth- p es use to vote. Hut this is a very ie dangerous policy to pursue and may result in great harm to our H( State. Our State ticket is sate, n as the Republicans have put up u no opposition at all. 'f Our candidates for congress in et the second, fourth and seventh a( districts have active Republican tc opposition, and it is especially e( necessary in these districts that If a full Democratic vote be cast. s| My information is that in some of the counties Socialist candi dates tor the legislature will y be run. It you do not come out and vote you certainly run the risk i of being represented in coi gress by conegroes or white Republi/?un U I t lc r?/lnAmlo I Kir o I 1 K in VUllOi XV *0 VV/11V./UUVU KJJ CXI l IIKH 11 the next house will he very close M and the past history of the Re- d< publican party proves that they 01 will stop at nothing to count in S a working majority. There is no rea-on why our congressional hi ticket, should not receive every di Democratic vote in the Slate, as ca we are absolutely united on na- tli tional issues. vi We have heard ot late various at throats that our representation bi in congress would be reduced by L a Republican congress on ac- in count of onr small votes in the rn general election. Now, lellow tli Democrats, do not allow this tli s 'rions charge to be made against T] yon, but come out '>11 Nov. and in ca^t your vote lor the grandest a! and best party this country has re ever had, and let the world ri know that the white men of hi South Carolina will always rule b< their State. st Wilie .Jones.

Chicago Tribune. A strange case of sight which e was destroyed by one accident s being restored by another is re t- ported from Leeds. One day 22 years ago, when Marie Louisa Goodyear, of Ileadling, was em^ ployed as a machinist, her stool was pulled from under her bv a I- l fellow worker, and when she fell she struck on her head. The force of the blow caused pressure of the optic nerves and she lost her sight. Twelveyears later she fell down 0 a flight of steps. A medical man 1 who was called in said she had it shaken the optic nerve and declared that if he could give her a r- blow on the head her sight might n be restored. He dared not try e the experiment, however, as it G might jeopardize her reason. Now Miss Goodyear has fallen down a flight of stairs again. The fail was followed by sovere pains in her head and the sudden return of her sight. Iler sight is now excellent. e tr e A Buggy Sixty Years Old. I . From the Atlanta Constitution.
