As tliis is campaign an<l elec
tion year, prospective candidates
will soon be^iti shaking hands
and kissing babies al! along the
line.
Our neighboring towns oi
Chester and Monroe each has a
street named Lancaster. It's n
wonder Rock Hill doesn't call
one of her muddy high "ays
"Lancaster Avenue."'
No doubt a man could go into
a New York court and enjoin bis
wife from compelling him to butlon
up her waist in the back.?
Rochester IK raid.
If he did she would doubtless
rip him up the back.
That's a v?.Id ;.nd woolly storv
Editor Hull, of Rock Hill, ieiL
about the manner in which h^
hurt his hand. Whoever heard of
a newspaper man having enough
money to lay out in piles of "l's,
2's, 5'a. 10's."etc., to bo counted?
Had he said that he had bruised
his lean paw reaching out aftej- i
the disappearing coat tails of u j
delinquent subscriber we would
have believed him.
The Fort Mill Times throws
the following neat bouquet at
Lancaster's new mayor:
The citizens ol Lancaster are ]
to be congratulated upon the excellent
judgment displayed in
the selection of Mr. T. Mcl. 1
Ilughes as mayor o: that town,
Mr. Hughes is a successful bu :
ness man, a citizen who lakes
pride in his town, and under higuidance
Lancaster m<\v be ex
pet ted to set a more glib pace in
the march ot progress. And, b.\
the way, Mr. Hughes is another
^'ort Mill man who i- helping to
make Lancaster famous.
1 he Chester Camera makes
the following timely suggestion
to our lawmaker*, who will a<- (
pemble in Columbia next. Turn
day :
One thought ought to be kept
in the mind t?y every representative
m the legislature? that we
cannot glFord everything that is
good, and everything that would '
pay if we had the capital to invest.
in it. It would pay many
? family to lay in their fuel in
the summer rattier than buy h
dollar'' worth or less at a time
ill the winter, if they had the
THE LAM
means. Handsome dwellings
with all modern conveniences
for us all would be a good thing
if we could all afford it. Our
law makers should constantly
remember that there are many
worthy causes, so urgent, too,
that they border upon necessity,
which we must get along without
in public as in private affairs.
The Iiev. R. L.' Robinson, the
able and scholarly pastor of the j
Associate Reformed Presbyte
rian church of Camden, Ala.,
in a loiter enclosing check in
pavment of his subscription to
The News, says :
' The News is a welcome visitor, i
'There's wit there veMl <*et there!
& !
ye'H find nae i'her where',as the
Scotchman would say."
TO OPPOSE Mil. FINLEY.
The Gaffnev correspondent of
the News and Courier states that
Mr. T. B. Butler, a well-known
lawyer r.f that city, lias definitely
decided to enter the race for
Congress from this distrinct in
the approaching campaign. In
making the announcement ilie
correspondent say-:
Mr. lint lor ha ? keen urg9d to
take this stop, in thus opposing
Mr. Finlev, by his many admirers,
not only in his home county,
but it) all the counties ot the 51ft
district, lie realizes I he popu
larity and strength ot his opponent,
the present Representative,
but through assurance from I
many sources he has been made
sanguine ot success. His friends
in Cherokee county assure him
that out of the 2,900 votes in
Cherok?e he will easily get over
2,500, this by no means beinir a
mean send off. ()l course he expects
York to support, Mr. Finley,
but he also expects a lively!
contes' in t'?? remaining counties.
Mr. Butler's friends are,
elated over the fact that he will
make the race; they say that he
is a ''catchy fellow" on the
stump mkI a strong speaker \vi h '
a firm grip on the people. These |

will.
