MR. WILSON IN YORKVILLE. j
/
Mr. Hugh Wilson of Abbeville, who
is affiliated with the Associate Reformed
Presbyterian church, "AH
Right Presbyterians," he calls them,
was very much interested in the new
church building in Yorkvlle. He
took occasion to go through the building,
the main auditorium, the session
room, the ladies' parlor, the Sabbath
school rooms, etc., and noter carefully
all the appointments and conveniences
of the remarkably complete
structure. He wanted to know wheth\
er the church was on the "pauper
list," and when advised to the contrary,
expressed satisfaction. "Are
you endowed?" he asked, and when
advised to the contrary, remarked
that an endowed church was as weak
and ineffective an institution as a
newspaper of free circulation. Mr.
Wilson was very much pleased to see
the church out on "A front street

"AS TO COOPER AND MANNING"
\
Greenwood Index.
The Index is going to say its say
about these two briefly once more.
The two men stand on practically
the same platform so far as platforms
go.
To show how the two men stood in
the preferences of the people in this
county in the first primary two years
ago it is only necessary to state the
vote. Gov. Manning received the sum
total of seventy-nine votes. Mr. Cooper
received fourteen hundred and sixty-nine
or approximately fifteen hundred.
He almost carried the county
aga:nst the whole field.
Gov. Manning will receive this year
more than the seventy-nine votes
which were given him two years ago,
but most of the votes given him will
be new ones.- - Mr. Cooper as heretofore
retains much of that popularity
which was his two years ago.
Mr. Cooper has excited no bitter
feeling anywhere. People believe he
will be fiir and impartial in deeds as
well as in words. For that reason in
this part of the countiy they are going
to vote for him for governor.
If now those great and good uewsnon?rc
wli (h nm lahorincr for the re
rwi'v* ~ v .
eUctioti of Gov. Manning will just
realize that there are some folks in
the State who intend to vote for Mr.
Cooper and that it is entirely unneccessary
to use a curry-comb on their
spines in the one instance and then
squeal about unfairness and all that
sort of thing in another, we think the
whole situation would be greatly improved.
Lets stop misrepresentation
and buncombe. A vote is a vote and
the man who can get the most of
them is the man we must look to to
turn the trick.

alley," and when told that the members
of the church were paying a per
capita of something more than $20 a
year for its support, he again voiced
hs approval. Mr. Wilson has very
decided views as to church work and
activities generally; but he does not
take much stock in spending money
for foreign missions, especially for
the Mexican mission.?Yorkville En- .

A LETTER TO MR. WHITE.
Mr. Gordon White, City.
Dear Mr. White.?I am going to c<
reruvrf lrnn +/"? ToHHtt Bnnaovelt fnr m
selling me to a boy like Dr. Keller.
I asked you to sell me to an old man,
who would feed me on plenty of
gasoline and oil, and let me stand ^
up in the shade and rest. But' you ar
took advantage of me. Without my er
consent I found myself being driven
by a young man out for sport. Well, vt
I have broken all the speed laws, all
the parking laws, all records on th
Wardlaw street, and the heart of m
every pther car in town, because I *
go everywhere. I ramble the streets to
in the day time, and waltz them at
night. I see everything and do ev- te
erything which a car can do, and do to
it all the time because my young da
master is a game sport and believes T<
in going the gaits. ' M
But I have been telling him he Rj
would come to grief, and if he did ar
not quit spurring me I would run k<
away. Well, Friday morning he
hitched me up when I was not feel- Ci
ing well, and drove me down town, yc
I trotted around tne public square
for a while, when to my surprise my
master said I' must go to the jail, and
away he started with me, but I de- to
murred. As we turned the post th
office corner I asked him why I wps ^
going to jail, and he refused to tell ^
me, but spurred me on. Just then ai
we met some people in the wagon bi
and my master turned to ask them
how he looked and I said to myself, J
I will get away now, and I made a
dash to get under Burnett Eakin's m
house, but my master jerked me and ^
I stumped a toe on the steps and
turned over. I spilt him out on the
ground, and then I saw I had him. I
turned over on him and held him w
tight until some old men came and
got him out, after he promised me
to allow me to go to the hospital to tj
rest up from the nervous exhaustion he
has occasioned me. , J(
While I am here, please sell or o:
trade me to some easy-going courting
