Our tender est sympathies are extended to the bereaved ones in their unutterable loss. A Dastardly Deed. Mr. Jack Owdom, living about 10 miles from Edgefield, makes weekly visits to Augusta to-, sell chickens and eggs. About dark the 7th of October , he left Augusta having realized about $30. It seems that a negro scoundrel in the city had seen him with the money, and knowing he was old and thinking him feeble, had fol lowed as far as the five mile post, where he asked for a ride. Mr. Owdom said he had no room. The negro then asked him to stop and demanded his money, whereupon he sprang into the wagon, but was met with a vigorous kick in the abdomen, which sent him sprawl ling in the middle of the road. Before ho could drive further how ever, the negro again sprang into' the wagon, and cut a horrible gash in Mr. Owdom's throat, robbed him of his money and left him insensible. Tho negro has not been seen or heard of since. After some time Mr. Owdom became COD scion s and was just able to reach the next house, where Dr. Shaw was called in. Mr. Owdom says the negro was black and 'smooth faced, was about 5 feet 10 inches, high, wore a red coat and light pants and had a villainous conn ten ance The Edgefield and Augu st authorities are on the lookout.

Doctrines. * . ' ? " ' .... i ? ? \ Zi 3. E. FREELAND, PluinBranchjS. C. DEAR FRIEND : Tell the Company [ can not be with them on the'19th inst., Trot, if alive? I intend tob? ?nth them in,1893, Tell them to 3tick to the Democratic rank?. 'United we stand, divided we fall.". By all means let the South remain 30lid. We have suffered enough. [ do not like the platform .bf the rhird or People's Party. "Notice two of its planks-etWe are in Favor of the Government's issuing money direct to the people and ?harging not more than 2 per Cent, interest, etc.".. We will-have to jpve land opt something oise as ?ollateral 'security. ?uppose a parent dies leaving four children, A., B, C, and D. This land ie di vided into four par-ts' and each mild becomes responsible for his fourth part of the principal and nterest. It may, be ..that they are lot able to pay either-the result s- they cannot sell tho land, and viii become mere tenants. In such t state of affairs we would in 30 fears be in the same condition old ireland is to-day-that" ia, of land ord and tenants, the difference be ug that our landlord will be the United States Government, with perhaps a Republican administra ron, and very probably so if our people continue to split up and mit the Democratic party. But vhat is the use for me to tell you ;he balance? It is surprising to me that some )f our men who suffered so much it the hands of the Republican party during the years immediate ly succeedinS the war can forget it all and be willing to place even bheir property where they will have a chance to get it again. For there is no doubt that nearly or imite all these new. fangled planks indirectly open up an avenue to Federal control of our persons and property, sooner or later. Another plank is : uWe are in favor of the Government's owning and operating all the railroads and telephone lines, etc." Bosh! We'll all quit everything else then and hire ourselves to Uncle Sam to work on the railroads, etc. We object to: the Republican policy which tends to render this a cen tralized government. What will be Ihe condition when all competition has been destroyed and we supinely give this Government the fixing af all freight charges and the con trol of almost one million more appointees-conductors and other railroad employees, telegraph Dperat?rB, etc ? Sir, they who have in their nanda the administration jf governmental affairs already bave too much power. Under those conditions we would have a cen tralized Government in the true ?ense of the word. The Sub Ireasury bill would in addition rive them control of the cotton md other staple products to fix meir own prices upon. Had we lot just as well have an absolute monarchy? The silver bill would do if we have an international agieement to place silver on a par with gold. But as it stands England, France, Germany, and Italy have demon etized silver, and without this in ternational agreement our Govern ment would have to give 131 for 100 cents, in all our commercial transactions with them. As our ?xport trade is worth annually more than one billion dollars, and the silver dollar with them is only Vorth 69 cents it would soon break >ur Government. Moreover I object to the compa ny we would find ourselves in in ;he People's party, composed as it is of the scum of the earth-Union Labor and Knights of Labor par ies, anarchists, and communists, foreigners, and here in the South a :ew good men (for whoml still have rreat respect and the profoundest sympathy in their mistake and cresent bad associations) and all :he old disaffected, unstable, unre iable, disgruntled, war deserters, md liers out in the bushes. If the North J s troubled with (trikes, anarchists, and commun sts, and is plunged into civil corn notion let them go ahead ; but do et the South be a unit, for so long LS we stick together our political memies will be hands off. They ire not anxious to meddle with the inited South, for being united in he late war we shook their Govern nent from centre to circumference. )ur only safety lies in sticking ogether. H. I. BIRD.

Owing to., the stringency -of the times in money matters the attendance will ; fall short of last year by possibly 12 per cent... One hundred and thirty have been enrolled in the college proper and something less than ninety at-the fitting school. Of course there are many new faces upon the campus and a cor responding disappearance of as many familiar ones. , Woftord can boast of one re formation long needed in college communities-we mean the prac tice of the inhuman habit of "haling" the new comers. None but a poor home-sick Freshman can understand what it is to be pulled out "of bed at the dismal hour of midnight-the season for ghosts, apparitions and hobgoblins -by a howling ruffian crowd and subjected to all the tricks and pranks and extempore inventions that may. chance to pass through the mirds of his hilarious tor mentors ; such a -being "bumped" until he sees the "seven stars," or is sent on imaginary urgent' er rands, or in all his Freshman innocence enticed to go on a "snipe hunt," and being led into a dismal swamp it becomes his 'duty to secrete himself with bag in hand and await developements; and lo! to his utter consternation it soon develops that he is "all alone" with nothing' to keep him company but the towering trees and clambering vinos, and no sound to break the death-like stillness save, the hoot of owls and the croak of frogs ! This very pleasant feature ?of college life, we are happy to say, has been eliminated, aud the. new boys- are mjd? to feel at home immediately upon arrival. Edgefield's representation is un usually small, there boing only two here from our County ; both these are in the junior class. Does this mean that Edgefield is retro grading, and that her sons are indifferent and unambitious and no longer zealous county's for their history past and present? The second double execution for this County within the past six weeks took place in the jail yard at ll o'clock the past Friday. Both were negroes, one a man and the other a 17-y?ar-old girl. The for mer was hanged for killing Mayor Henneman sometime ago, and the latter for forcing carbolic atid down the throat of a one-year-old infant to spite her mistress. As we write the cool October breezes come sweeping down from the slopes of the Blue Ridge mountains bearing the purest aromatics, while the sun of: a cloudless day is flooding the eaijth with his warm and welcome rays. But Spartanburg's proximity to, and fascinating view of, the moun tains, her cotton factories of the most gigantic structure, her mon uments of industry, push, and energy, her iron foundries, and literary institutions, her sky piercing steeple churches, her "dummy line," electric lights, and telephones, yea, all she is, has, or ever expects to be can't shut out from our mind's eye the "Rural Village" of Dennys, with its simple, frugal, unostentatious in habitants^, and the thousand and one incidents of our youthful career which have transpired in and around the sacred precincts of our own and our* companions' homes. . * With lore for all Edgefield and best wishes for the fearless ADVER TISER, we are again Yours &c, BUD. Spartanburg, S. C. Elmwood Items* MR. EDITOR : On last Saturday, while Treasuer Stevens was assisting his wagoner to raise up a stock-log to carry to the saw-mill, by some means the lever got out of. their handstand flew up with great force and struck Mr. Stevens on the head a severe blow, which knocked him down and made him very sick for a while. Fortunately he is not dangerously hurt, and was able to be up on yesterday. On Saturday evening last a f thunder storm with lightning and wind passed over this community. The lightning struck a large oak tree near the end of Mr. J. L. McDowel's house and split the oak : open down into the roots ; a part of the fragments struck the cook . room of the house, knocked off some of.the weather-boarding, brok a window sash and knocked a 1 shelf d?wn in the cook room. Fortunately the family was in. the -, other end of the house and no ona ; was hurt. We also had a good rain, which will do gardens and sweet potatoes a great deal of good, but has slightly injured the' cottou which will only-make about three- 1 fourths of crop. Mr, James. Clegg is to leave for Texas to-day. I don't like to see our young men seeking homes in the Lone fe.ar State, they can do well farming here in Edgefield, if they have the right grit and will stick hard down to work. Some men are hunting easy places, which they never will find. I tell you, young men, you never can get the other side of work. It don't matter where you go. After the fall of man God said that man must earn his bread by the sweat of his brow. ' OBSERVES. Elmwood S. C. Rehoboth Dots. MR. EDITOR: Here we come again with both heels up and toe nails dragging. Crops are short in this commu nity, especially cotton. ? " We had the pleasure of attend ing a sociable last Tuesday even ing at the residence of Mrs. C. L. Cul breath, given in honor of her bright and intelligent niece, Miss Pattie Lanier, of Choty.

Burton, G. W. Bussey, P. B. Blalock. L. F. DORN, Mod. S. E. FREELAND, Sect. A Fiendish Crime. MCBILE, Ala. Oct. 10.-The mur der of Richard L. Johnston, and his daughter took place Friday night at 'Davis Ferry, Monroe County, near the Wilcox County line. Johnson was a Northern man, who settled there in 1867 and lived alone with his beautiful and accomplished daughter. The mur derers are supposed to have had designs upon the girl. They called Johnson to his gate and killed him with an axe. Signs ?f a bloodv struggle at the gate showed this. What happened is not known ex cept that the daughter was also killed. The bodtes were placed in the house and the house set on fire. Neighbors were attracted to the scene by the light of the fire-and next morning found the cremated bodies. Search was instituted and at the house of Burrill Jones, colored, three hundred yards distant from Johnson's, an axe with blood on it was found. The shirts of a brother of Jones named Moses and of a son of Jones were found spotted with blood. The citizens have all three men prisoners, and when last heard from were trying to get the boys to confess. Five other negroes have been arrested charged with aiding in the commission of the crime. Thc- negroes are nelping the whites in their effort to prov? the guilt of those ascused. Johnson came from Massachu setts, and a daughter of his, named Grace, is married to a Mr. Capin, of New York city. A coat of paint has no buttons on it. Patience is a virtue-in other people. Falsehood is a hood that covers many crooked heads. What looks like sauce for one man makes a goose of another. A cyclone is like a waiter-it carries everything before it. - "Never mind me," said Mrs. Jones before she was married, and that is exactly what her hus band did after the . honeymoon vas over. : ' '?
