The Meeting on Sale l>ny.
Our people should not forget that the County
Democratic Club will meet on Sale Day to 1
re-organize by the election of officers to conduct
the county campaign.
At present there is a disposition to do away
with personal or party factions in this county,
and so far as we have been informed, there j
Will DC no COIllt'Sl iwr me i n-Murut.1 ui iuv
Club. We know of no one wno desires the
office, and we know of no one who lias ony
Particular preference for, or objection to, anyody.
There will be no contest this year for either <
the County Chairmanship or the Senatorship
on the lines which have 11 ere to fore divided
the County. There is a disposition on the! a
part of a great many of our citizens to have j 1
the old party lines entirely obliterated, as j F
they should be. Ill furtherance of this kindly
spirit.Vj which should exist between neigh- a
bore, and citizens of the same county, Mr. n
Parker has determined not to be a candidate ]
for the Sermtoi*>hip If General Hemphill | e
should announce himself for that position. U
So there will bo no arraying of one party]
against another in this race. Many of Mr. ib
Parker's friends will no doubt support Gener-1 fi
al Hemphill in case he should become a can- j
didate. ?
11 like manner there will be no contest for o
County Chairmanship. Mr. Henct will decline
re-election, nnd his friends have no spec-1 b
ial preference for anybody. They are willing j P
to accept in good spirit anybody that may be
elected. t<
These facts taken with the other fact that
we have heard of no utterance of dissatisfac- n
tion at the outlook, we are inclined to the 'J
opinion that this will bo a campaign without
.lwi, ic fnip in nri'stimp that tl
fai I.* nn i iv-, uiuiiau .v ... .-w ,
the Prohlbiilou qu"stlon will give life and an- | '
Lnation to tlie election fur Legislators. All ?
tilings considered we will likely have a pleas- ri
autcurupaign.

The stock show at Abbeville on Sale Day in <;
May is booming. Fine horses from various 'f
quarters will be exhibited on that day. "My (j
Lord." an Imported French Norman horse SI
will be here from Anderson. ".Margin" a j (j
thoroughbred Hamiltonian from Louisville, vt
Ky., will be exhibited from Pendleton. J B.! p J
Cade's celebr.ited horse, "Ilamiitonlan," from jg
Washington, Georgia, will be here. Several
fine blooded horses rrom Ninety-Six are to be bi
registered, besides other numerous horses and w
C 'lis.
l^et all exhibitors reeister their animals at 4\j
Hill's stable. This is necessary to taking a
part In the exhibition.
This exhibition will include fine horses, fine | n
horse colts, and fine mule colts. If anybody ai
has a poor colt, let him bring it along and
sell it. A

Lowndesvillc.
\Vc learn that, the people of Lowndesvllle | a'
are still much exercised as to where the future j ?
business of the town will be conducted. This i C(
doubt causes builders to hesitate. The editor'
of the Pres.* and li'inncr has had some experi- j, ,
ence In building houses, and we have observ-; j.1
ed results from the work of others. As a rule j,}
town property is not worth more than about j11
sixty cents on the dollar of its cost, while in j
smaller towns, the property usually com-;
inands only nominal figures. The builder of
houses Is seldom the owner, after the first ,v
year or t wo. Let no man bo led astray by any ,
idea tint he can borrow money to build a
h<>u*e The business of a town will be done ,,
where the capital Is located.

Give the Words of the Text. ?
When correspondents write notices of ser-J^'
rnons th?y are requested to write the words of j '
the text. The idea of w riling Prov. xx: 30,! |{
involves the trouble of hunting up a Bible ;
nnd scrimmaging around for the words. To
some of us the task would be about as dilH-1
cult as that of unlocking a safe after the com-1
biuatiou had been lost.

Wilms Pkick, colored, of Lebanon, aeed 191 ?
years, died last Sunday, after ten months of i
sickness. He was afflicted in a peculiar way. j _
Jle iiad a sore on the ins ep of Ills foot about, j s
ten months as<o. The sore was poulticed. The j n
'outer skiii peeled off, and it is alleged that an
Innumerable number of worms shot their |.,
lieAdsoutat the surface. Abrasions of the 11)
skin were afterwards made in oilier places i,r
when the worms appeared as before. His! ...
flesh seemed to be full of very smull worms.
as far as we are informed, he made no effort ..
to get medical aid until the day before he .!.
A Dhvsiciati was to so to see him on |
the day of his death. It in reported that, the
dlse?se was the parasite which is imparted to
the human system by eating diseased raw
bacon, but the doctors do not believe this, ft
though they did not see the patient. j a
