The last two fairs were as full and equal all respects in point of the number and excellence of exhibits as an v preceding Fa though more slimly attended because of cessive railroad rates charged visitors, these draw backs having been satlsfacio adjusted, there Is do reason why this i should not be as successlHl as any heretoi held. Attend the Fair, and eucournge with your presence, and assist in this gr enterprise. Yours truly, Thomas J. Moore, 1'residen Thos. \V. Holioway, Secretary. , Don't Trim Postal Cards. It is ruled by the postal authorities t any reduction of the size of a postal card clipping, rounding off the corners, or otl wise, will subject the receiver of the card \ charge of one cent on delivery. This ma the cost of a postal card equivalent to lei postage, Many persons Inclose postal card correspondents in eoVtfibpes too small, i imagine that a little clipping will not mi any difference. Others round off the cort for ornamental purposes or convenience handling. ^ The State of South Crolinj COUNTY OF ABBEVILLE. I'KOltATE COL'KT. In the matter of the Estate of M. Richf eon, Dcceaued.

The Register does Greenwood gravo injuf tlce in two instances In Its issue of yesterday In one editorial paragraph It says : "There are Homo ugly rumors floating around that white men, with their face; blacked, had a hand In the killing of Consta bio Mosely. Probably there is nothing ir these reports, but they should be thoroughly slued by the grand Jusy of Abbeville County which is now In session. The killing ol Muse ly was murder most loul and the gulltj should not be allowed to escape." We do not know from what source the Reg later obtained its information, but we dr know the report is absolutely false. J. J Mosely was untimely taken otrby our brothei In bluck and we do not think a single wblU man In Greenwood or in the adjacent ccunlrj condones for an instant the foul murder doue on the contrary, every man with an ounce o white blood coursing through his veins, ha: done, Is determined to do, all In his power tc have Justice meeted out to the guilty. , Again the Register says editorially: "'1 he Greenwood citizen who blames th< Dispensary law for the killing of Constabl( Mosely has probably forgotten that Green wood has voted 1 tnelf a dry town. It waf only dry nominally as the-shlpment of thirty eight packages of liquor there Saturday nigh) proved. Mosely's eliorts to make Greenwood in reality,fes well as name, a dry town wcr< not appreciated, even by many of the meu whose votes helped provent the legal sale o liquor there." Here the Register Is In error again. We dc not think a single sane citizen ol our town can be found wno blames the dispensary law for the killing, but we one and all blame thai fiend, who hofouly, brutally, cowardly mur dered him, nnd are determined that prlncipn and accessary before and after the act shall pay the penalty in full for violated law. In proof of our assertion, we cite the fact 01 a Jury ol 15 silting nlmost unlnteruptedlj Iroin Sunday, 4.-:J0 a. m? until Tuesday 11 a. m and the most excellent way that Jury ferreted out the guilty, and if the Jury doe* its duty sc well as the jury of Inquest, Mr. Mosley.s mosl foul taking off will be avenged. It Is true the dispensary law had its oppon ents In Greenwood as It can number them in every town. We dare say the law has ai strong moral support here as it has in anj town. Mr. Fmui and other constables sale that they had never been treated so well It any place. That they had the moral support of the citizens?they felt It and appreciated It I Short Slops. Duo West S.
