The meeting of the State Candidates at
.bbevllle passed off' quietly. Hon. K. B.
ary was Chairman 01 th6 meeting. The
leetlng was opened with prayer by Rev. P.
. Wells.
The first speaker whs Mr. McLoud, caadiate
for Lleutenaut Governor. Mr. McLoud
jmpllmented the Couuty on the manhood
nd statesmanship of Its leaders and said
iat an Abbeville man was treasurer of hla
ome county and wished for more such cllians,
He pledged his best services to the
tuple and promised to loot after their interns
II elected
Mr. Ij, M Kagln, of Richland County, candlate
for Secretary of state, then spoke. He
ild that the office of Secretary of State was a
erlcal office and consequently there were
o Issues for hirn to discuss In selecting a
lan lor thin office b? said that there were
wo requirements; first, that the man be
ualified lor the position, that he have a
lorough knowledge of the workings of the
[See, books, etc., and second that be be
onest in the discharge of the duties of the
dice. He remarked that he had had five
ears experience and that part ot the time he
ad worked ibe office singie-nauaea ana
lone, without even the aid of a typewriter.
He related tbe story of a certain Dad boy
ut <n Tenoesee. Tbe Father of this boy
ime home hurriedly one day aDd ripping
ito the bouHe yelled to his wife to lork
uhUDle up in the hum. Johnnie's mother
egau to ask questions, and again tbe lather
>id her to lock Johnnie up quick. Why,
ild tbe mother. Well, was the reply, three
ilnlsters are coming to dinner and 11 you
on't lock Johnnie up you'll be sorry you
Idn't. No, do, said the mother, Mhcdh's 111e
man wouldn't make Mama ashamed, and
tie proceeded to lectuie Johnnie on good
tanners.
Soon tbe ministers put in tbelr appearance
od dinner was announced. All were seated
ad the lather proceeded to ask Bro. John>n
if be would be helped to turkey. Mo,
ild Brother JobnsoD, I have dyspepsia and
in't eat turkey.
Johnnie's eyes began to open*
May I help you to some chicken then?
No, no, said the brother, I nave dispepsla
ad can t eat chicken.
Johnnie's eyes began to open wider.
Let me help you to some rice Brother
sbnson.
No, was tbe reply, I have tbe despepeta and
in't eat rice.
Jobonle could stand It no longer with
loutb watering and eyes bulging he
hooped: "Give the old tool a raw egg, pa,
laybe be can eat that.
The speaker then referred tbe audience to
te other candidates for this office, aDd eug;sted
tbat If they seemed to be suffering
it h dtfsneDgia. to eive them raw egg.
Hod. J. M. Morrinon was the next lo speak,
e eaid thai while itie speaker preceeding
im did Dot look like a dysptptic, be did
em to be sutterlriK with wind colic, lie
ild that be came noi to tell jokes, but to
> business. Ibe office Is an Important ooe.
i considerable tees are paid ibe office. He
lid that some of these teen bad been beld
ick at times and suggested that the flees be
ild directly to the State Treasurer aDd not
i tbe office. He referred to Mr. Eagln's
atement of his qualifications and said that
Dt every corporal is flt to be a commander,
e advocated Immigration from the west as
ie best solution of the negro question, that
was a question to be met, and tbe sooner
ie better.
The Hon. J. Fraser Lyon was next lntrciced
by tbe chairman and arose amid ap
ause. Some one In tbe audience yelled out.
nake a home run !" Mr. Lyon replied that
b expected to make a home run tbe very
'St lime be came to tbe bat.
He said that he bad not been derelict In bis
ity.tbathe had discharged himself of bis
>ligatlon to tbe people of bis county to tbe
>st of his ability. He referred to the graft
lat had been carried on In tbe Dispensary
id urged as a relief, tbe adoption of count?
Ispensaries. County dispensaries could be
lanaged better than tbe State Dispensary,
icause they would be right under the eyes of ,
ie people, and graft could be prevented,
aoh oounty, then, would get all the money
crueing from Its dispensary and tbere
ould be no necessity of division. He advls1
lo cut off lrom tbe rotten Instuotlon in
Dlumbia. Talk about no fraud, said he,
ben the chairman snaKes iuouuhdu uuimr i
)i? In tbe race of people as money tie has
iade. He referred to w. W. Smoke aDd Mr. I
ralker and the abougan and suit ofoiothee, I
le Bald tbat Budwelser beer could be bouahU
>r 810 per onse and tbat tbe dispensary wai
Hying $12.02 per case, and tbat Deep Springe
14nor sold In Chattanooga for 81 T5 and tbat
ie dispensary paid $8 for tbe same whiskey,
e said that Joe Jones and fat Rocbe were
oove susploion and tbat tbe members of tbe
tea) board were above suspicion and tbat
lese men ought to be out loose from tbe rot- |
snness In Columbia.
Mr. A. W. Jones, candidate for Comptrollereneral,
waanext introduced. He said tbat I
ie poor people were paying more tban tbelr
lare of tbe taxes ana tbat tbe matter sbould (
b regulated, tbat tbree years ago tbe State \
arrowed 850U.000.00 and paid Interest amount'
>g to fltteen or t enty thousand dollar*,
ml be bad sncoeeded in collecting SM.000
lthout cost to tbe State, Last year tbe
tale borrowed only 8900,000, and next year
e hoped to run tbe State on a cash basis. He
lid that be bad uncovered many irregularis
es and mucb bad book-keeping throughout
ie State.
Hon. J. D. Boyd, of Greenville, candidate
ir Adjutant and Inspector General, next
joke. He referred to his record of tbree
ears in tbe State malitla, and said tbat be
onld rather have a single lose at tbe bands
f tbe people now tban have a bed of roBes on
is grave. He asked tbe people only to exmine
bis record and if tbey found bim capDie
to give blm tbe position,
Hon. L. W. Hatkeil spoke on tbe import
Dee of tbe office and of the part the Malltla
lays Id tbe Government, lie said that be
van a grbduete of lbe Citadel, for tbree years
ct mmaLdant ol nialitla, that be bad been
iBHlbieot Adjutent General aud tbat tbe exerlence
be bad thus gained eminently fitted
1m for tbe position be asked.
Mr. Richard Manning, of Sumter, was nexi
itioduced. He stands for Improvement in
je common schools; better pay for teacbers.
lgber learning and good roads. He knew
aat whiskey was an evil:?tbe question was,
ow best to settle It, He said tbat the same
Id prejudice against the dispensary was
.111 allve;that tbe mismanagement of tbe dlseqsary
ought to be correcttd; tbat tbe sjs:m
should not Le blotted out unless there
'hs something better to offer, tbat pioblblon
wan not tflecilve and cannot be. The
roposed county dispensary would be even
'orse (ban lbe stale Instliulion. He advomed
a bill Ibat would call for tbe appointment
ol a committee toopen bids lor llquoi
apply to last twelve months, lbe purchasing
ower to be taken away from the board ana
ested In lbe committee, After a twelve
Qonibs supply bad been bought tbe commit
ie to retire lrom < fQce and a new committee
amed. Liquor could be thus supplied wltb
be government stump, and all possibility 01
rait precluded. The salaries of the dispenser
bould not depend on the amount ol whiskey
[>ld, but should be a slated amount. The
berlffs and county ottiolals could not run a
lopensary, they have other duties to peroral.
Hon. M. F. Ansel, of Greenville, thought
bat as tbe Government was spending tbouBnds
of dollars on seas and rivers, some
loney bhould be spent on publio highways,
'be most prosperous cities have good roads
?adlng to them, He is opposed to tbe State
llspensary System and tblnks that each
cunty should vote for itself, that such a procedure
Is good democracy.
Mr. Bruuson stands out fiat-footed for
roblbltlon and classes tbe dispensary alone
nib bar-rooms, and would Dlot out tbe
rbole thing. He Is op tbe water.wagon. He
ays tbat 11 tbe Slate Dispensary was tied in
Kn Mluontu Polio II prinlil tint hp vrnRhPd
lean. He Hay8 that 1/ whiskey continues to
>e sold we should erect an asylum for Inebrlites.
Hod, J. J. MeMah&m takes a different tack,
ie says tbat tbe dispensary la not tbe paraDount
question 01 I be day?that tbe question
if education bolds tbe uppermost place. We
lave too mucb book learning and notenougb
leart training. If we were (ducated rlgbt
itber questions of grave Importance now,
could adjust themselves. He advocates a
xiodel larm school for boys aud a model
tome school for girls In eacb county of tbe
tate. In ihese schools the boys and girls are
o be taught such things as will be useful to
hem in after life. He thinks that prohibiten
Is not practicable now, and that tbe
iiate Dispensary Is the best solution at
present.
Col. Jno. T. Sloan Is a Plfdmonter. He
lays that the liquor question 1b the only Issue
31 tbeday, end thinks tbe dispensary Is tbe
best solution of It. He says tbat Mr. Ansel
bas prohibition under one arm and whiskey
under tbe oiber. He stands tor education
e rd wants a school bouse on every bill top.
Mr. W. A. Edwards of Saluda, Is not satis
led with the way tbe laws are being enlorc;d.
He thinks that very little respect Is
bown tbe laws of our state and shows com>arisons
between Chicago and South Caroll>a.
He would put a tax on all whiskey orlered
from other states and thus raise 83,000,'00
00 for tbe state. He thinks tbat tbe cusom
of ordering whiskey Id other people's
>8me should be stopped at once.
Mr. J. W- Ragsdale said tbat he would make
io attack on any man's character, but that
le would question Mr. Lyon's record as to
louble pay. He said tbat a man could not
jold two oftlces of trust apd emolument at
ihe same time. Let Lyon pick three solicitors
and me pick three, said be, aDd if lam
wrong In this I w'll pay glOO to any orphan:
age In the state. If be Is wrong let him pay
bsck the money be received to tbe State
treawurer,
Kagsdale stands for ibe State Dispensary,
He vcould like to know the difference be.

He read a letter from the Stale

Mr. Walker, of Greenville, candidate fc
Comptroller General, thought tbat tber
soonld be more power in tbe office of comj
troller.
Mr. James Cansler, of Tlrzah, made a cbai
acterlstlc speech. He spoke of tbe bands c
tbe present commissioner being tied an
said that they were tied with free passes, an
that their (net were lied to the pullman pa

It is sometimes said tbat "corporations bav
no souls." Not so with theSoutbern Rallwaj
Under tbe lead of Col. A. B. Andrews th
Southern b?s a soul as large as a moun'ali
and as broad sh tbe sea. When p trlotlc wo
men appeal to blm be l? more generous am
more liberal than wbr King Ahasuerus to tb
beautiful Quten Esther, wben be asked
"What Is tby request ? I' shall be even glvei
thee to the half of the Kingdom."
Weil, now, everybody knows of Col. An
drews' courtly manners, aDd wben Confede
rate ladles appeal to blm. he surrenders hear
and sou'. aDd be becomes their will prlsonet
Not knowing whether they would demand i
line of nt-w oosctMB from Jericho to Confede
rate Cross Roads, the bland and lDCompara
bly polite grest railroad telDg of today wa
more gallant tban was tbe Persian King o
lonit aeo.
When be learned tbat the Confederate la
dies asked only the free transportation of lb
Marine band wbicb Hon. Wyait Aiken bac
secured to furnifh music for Ibe unveiling o
Ibe Confederate monument, be simply fell o!
bis chair and ordered free transportation fo
all tbe musicians in tbe cl'y of Charleston.
Tbe ladles In keeping wllb their well know
Ing southern modest; aBked tbe kingly offl
clal of their Congressman, Hon. Wyatt Aiken
who Is not only pwtlent with Republlcai
Presidents In Washington, but who nas tbi
e?r of all other big folk, Including rallroai
cfllolals, and never fears to let bis wishes b
known .of all men. He. like Col. Andrewc
surrendered at discretion, and the result 1
tbat we are to have tomorrow the best mu4
that ever rang oat over tbe neighboring hill
end valleys that surround this historio oli
town that has always stood at the forefron
In tbe vlotorles of peaoe and in tbe artso
war. When great Congressman and powerfu
railroad magnates surrender lo tbe bent wo
men tnat ever honored a soldier in hlsflgb
for tbem.we little folk can only say, "Here
Lord, I give my sell away."
It may be a?certed positively that a corpo
ration that bas such a generous big hear tec
man at its bead as Col. A. B. Andrews ma:
be depended on lor acts of generosity an<
kindness.
A case In point 1* in connection wllb tbi
unveliiDg ceremonies to take place heri
Thursday, August 2ard. Tbe ladles of Abbe
vllle by their untiring efforts have erected i
beautiful monument to tbe confederate dea(
in the olty of Abbeville.
Every cent tbat could be raised was appllet
to the purchase of tbe monument.
They appealed to Congressman Aiken t<
get tbe gratuitous services of a governmen
hnnir lnratprl at Hharleston. Mr. Alkan sue
ceeded in this, when tbe ladles fouDd tba
the expense of transportation, some two ban
dred dollars, coold not raised. Appeal wai
again made to Mr. Alkea and to tbe Abbe
ville Preea and Banner and tbe Abbevllli
Medium to mafee united request for'tbi
Southern Railway Company to transport th<
band free of covt. Acoordlncly tbe reques
was made of Col. Andrew*, and assurance!
were sent at once tbat It would be granted.
Col. Andrews la a southerner, who slep
with tbe confederate boys on manyahar<
fought battle field. The aauthern womai
could make no request of him In vain am

Gentlemen
| It's sound sense that we tell you.
I It will cost less dollars to paint your
k church with L. & M. Paint, because
\ more painting is done with one gallon
I of L. & M. than with two gallons of
/ other paints, and the L. & M. Zinc
hardens the L. & M. White Lead and
s' makes the L. & M. Paint wear like
iron.
Any church will be given a liberal
quantity free whenever they paint.
4 gallons L. & M. mixed with 3 gallons
Linseed Oil will paint a moderate
sized house.
jg Actual cost L. & M. about $1,20 per
gallon.
J. E. Webb, Painter, Hickory, N.
C., writes, "Houses painted with L. &
i. M. 15 years ago have not needed
in painting since."
