The School Commissioner. j)(
In our notice of the new officers In the
Court House last week, we unaccountably at
omitted the name of that faithful old officer n<
, and good friend Captain E. Cowan, the School
Commissioner, who has served this people so b<
efficiently In the years that are past, that cl
they have repeatedly re-elected him to the
office which he now holds. It was through n<
his efforts that the children now enjoy double
the length of school term. There are no a
counties in the State which'gives ;as many as
schools and give {as long terms as Captain sc
Cowan gives. w
The DilTerence.|
The G., C. & N. agent was la town last week
settling the tax question with Treasurer
Blake. He is reported to have said that the
tux In Abbeville county was more than hall
the entire tax In the State of Georgia, and
that the road paid more taxesou about one
hundred miles In South Carolina than the
company paid on about four hundred miles
In North Carollba. ^
City Drug Store.
Mr. G. A. Doug:a?s will open a new drug
store on the first of January. His stock will
bn new and fresh ; his prices will be reason a- /
b>, and his attentiou will be promut and efli- "
cipnt. Mr. Douglass is one or our most subsiantial
citizens, and his ability and Integrity
inspire public confluence. See his advertise- .
nient and then call at his store. *c
Trotting Hatch. {j!
Recently Mr. J. L. Henderson and Mr. Par- se
ker, depot agent at McCormick, trotted their n
tine horses, Mr. Henderson's horse winning sc
three times. The fourth trot was a tie. It is
Bxid that Mr. Henderson has the finest horse si
in that section. rc
