Edgefield Advertiser Lost Note. . Schumpert & Bland, have lost a note. See advertisement of the same. Dont Forget Kind reader, do you owe the printer anything? If you do, don't forget to call-and see him. m Seed Cotton. The seed cotton law is now in force and any one buying such cotton without license is violating the law. Edgefield Hussars. By order of Capt. S. B. Maya there will be a meeting of this troop at the pavilion on Saturday, Nov. 3rd. Contractor Arrives. Mr. Friday, the rock-quarry con tractor, has arrived and will com mence operations in a few days with a large force of hands. Utility vs. Sentiment. Our town council, sacrificing sentiment to utility, have taken away the park fence and allow it to be used now ad a wagon yard, thus preventing the blocking up of our streets as was heretofore so often the case in fall and winter. Onion Growing. Mr. C. F. Sidoner, who lives on Butler Hill, General Butler's home, planted this year one acre in ' onion s, from which he made sixfy bushels and sold them in Augusta at $1.25 per bushel. It took three bushels of sets to plant the acre. An Electric Rock. We hear cf the discovery On Mr. S. T. Hugues's plantation near Trenton, of an electric rock and several springs that, rivalling in virtue the Hillman Electric Well in Georgia, are equal to the healing of the nations. i Gin House Burned. We regret to hear of the burning of Mr. . S. M. Smith's gin-house, four miles from Edgefield in the Harmony section, on Saturday night last. There were four hun dred bushels of cotton seed and ten bales of cotton in the house at the time all of which was a total loss, there being no insurance. The tire was accidental. . Auld Lane: Syne. We publish this week a list of the three companies that went from Edgefield county to the Florida or Seminole war in 1836. This list, and the comments on the departure and incidents of the departure of these volunteers, are copied from an old Advertiser of Feb. lltb, 1836. The names are all familiar to Edgefield county peo ple, but tho gallant gentlemen themselves have all, with few exceptions, passed over the river. Pointed Remarks. It has been charged against the --colored-race* that their preachers never inveigh against the ams of church members, but seek solely for accessions. That such is not the case is proved by the following excerpt from a sermon delivered by a colored clergyman in a colored church not a thousand miles from Edgefield: "God has no respectable persons"-Dis is my text to night, an' "ole Marster" was about half right when he said dese words, for it do seem to me, it do teem to me, dat in dese days, of all de rnmracking sons of damnation some of you church members is gettin' to be de ramrackinist, You goes furder an' you dives deeper in' o al 1 kinds of devilment an' rascality dan de world's people do. You tells more lies, and bigger lies, an' meaner lies dan dey does, an' if you thinks des da water is gwine to save you you, right dar is whar you drapped your money pus." Series of Mishaps. Tom Parks is a colored man who lives in the Horns Creek * country. Onla6t Saturday while driving from Edgefield to his home he was overtaken by the wind storm which prevailed in this section on that day..Tom was driving a. double buggy and .when in front of Mr. Ab Covar's, in South Edgefield, a tree was blown down and fell between the two horses, breaking the tongue and just reaching far enough to split che dashboard, but not hurting Tom or the horses in the least. Next day the buggy wa* carried to the shop. While at the shop for repairs some son of Satan stole one of the wheels; nor was this all-. Unmerciful disaster. Followed fast and followed faster A few days after Tom started to town with a bale of. cotton and while en route his wagon broke down. This is the sum of his disasters to date; if any more should happen before onr next issue we'll try to get them. Personal Mention. Miss Lucia Culbreath was in Edgefield this week. Mr. Willie Cheatham and wife are visiting Col. Oscar Cheatham, in Buncombe. Mr. Julian Strother attended divine services in our Baptist church last Sunday. Miss Jell Richard* returned on Thursday from a tew days visit to Augusta. Rev. L. R. Gwaltney is con ducting a revival meeting at Ridge Spring. Mrs. L. R. Strother and family, having spent the summer on her plantation in Edgefield, have returned to St. Georges. Messrs. Tom Hoyt and Will Ready, of Johnston, were in town last Friday. Master Samuel Nicholson son of A. R. Nicholson, Esq., left for Wofford College last Thursday. Editor in Chief. Cadet W. W. Fuller, of the Pat rick Military Institute, son of Chas. .Fuller, Esq., of Liberty Hill, has been elected editor in chief of the P. M. I. Journal. Reason Why. ? Uncle Adam Ki'nard, of Kinards, was in town on Friday last to at tend the quarterly meeting of the County Alliance. While in our office we interviewed him for the reason "why shucks on the corn are this yea^thicker than usual." He agreed with us that the shuck was heavier and thicker than usual, but said, "that's no sign of^a hard winter, that corn this year is larger and better than in other years and that nature ha? simply put a warmer and better covering on the ear, teaching this lesson to the farmers : that if they will do their duty, plant corn and plenty of it, she will do hers and try to protect it until housed." He also told us he is planting corn from the same seed he got in 1846. Captain Lewis Jones. Captain Lewis Jones is no more ! He died at his residence in the town of Edgefield on Tuesday last at 7 p. in. after a long illness, aged 77 years. Deceased was the last of four brothers, of a family that has made itself historic in the annals of Edg?feeld county. He was for a number. of years before the war, Sheriff of this County, and we have often heard the remark that he was without a peer in the discharge of the duties of this high office-the most responsible indeed of all the county offices. Afterwards he served in the Leg islature, and in all he did and all he said in that body he was ever inspired by that same inflexible determination to do his duty. When the war began Capt. Jones raised a company of cavalry and enlisted in the Sixth regiment, and the happiest and best recollec tions of his long and eventful life were associated with that organiza tion. After the war he was for* a series of years President of the Atlantic and French Broad Railroad, after wards the Carolina, Cumberland Gap, and did as much, perhaps more, than any man to give Edge field a railroad connection with < the outside, world. . > < In his private life and relations ' deceased was all that could be 1 desired. His manner and exterior 1 appearance was to the casual ob server cold and stern, but he had ' a warm and tender heart, and those < who knew him best, knew its ' warmth and appreciated his friend- " ship. His friends indeed, he bound 1 to him with'hooks of steel. His 1 remains were laid to rest iu the ; family cemetery on the. hill which overlooks the village that he loved so well-there to rest^ll the res urrection morn. "Life's labor done, securely laid In this, his last retreat ; Unheeded o'er his silent dost The storms of life shall beat." Mine Creek News. MR. EDITOR: Gathering corn, ] ginning, and trying to meet obli gations seems to be the order of the day. Cotton is about all gath ered in this section. The thundering sound of the 'possum horn and the shrill holler of the merry hunters are enough '' to prove that the nocturnal trav ellers are forced to put a "hump" on. Mr. John Story caught one the other night that weighed ten pounds. That was strength for the 1 smoke-hous6, was it not? ' Mr. J. W. Parish & Co. had a fox ; race last week, and another such a howl and a squall was never heard. They said that they ran him to the ' swamp of "Never," but he got 1 there just the same and left them ' onjoehind. ' Mr. Pinckney Harris's house caught on fire last Saturday, but by fast work and plenty of water " they succeeded in saving it. The ' top was right smartly burned. Mr, James Rodgers has been suf- ' fering very much for the last two , weeks from a throat trou ble. t Brother C. L. T. is so extremely fascinated by his best girl that he can hardly sleep. Went to W. -rd's to-day where we j were interestingly entertained by < our best friend, "Van Star," dur- ? in g our short stay. He had seemed 1 to be in a wayward position in re gard to his girl, but taking things from a feminine standpoint, it is quite different now. By and by, the extreme adoration and homage of the old girl captured him, and ? now he is sailing on the bright j ship of love and reverence. Rev. J. A. Carson has resigned j his pastorship at Richland Spring \ Church. He has accepted a call ! by the Good Hope Church. We 1 regret to have to give him up. There is a young men's prayer j meeting at Richland every Satur- ( day night. We are glad to note j that the young men of this section J are taking great interest in it. Mr. L. W. R-, the young ' astronomer, says that the stars < have become so uncertain that it 1 would take a man that was well versed in the arts of legerdemain to tell some of them from St. Peter. He says he believes there is more pay in studying medicine or phrenology ; any way he has dropped the astronomy question. Mr. Tommie White has returned from the Lexington Commercial College, and is clerking for Mr P.B.Watson. The nights are growing longer indeed, And you would like to grow wiser; Well, you need something to read, Just subscribe to the ADVERTISER. ' ". JOHN BLAKE. Edgefield's Representative at ttye Greenville Colleges. EDITOR ADVERTISER : Tho schools of Greenville have opened well, notwithstanding the he.rd times. The roll of students at Furman is longer by seven names than it was at this time last year. Old Edgefield is well represented. Twelve in number hail from that county. W. Lott, Jr., J. D. Tim mons, W. D. Holland, B. L. Hol land, G. P. White, R. J. Parks, G. S. Andrews, .J. J. Mixon, W. A. Hart, H. M. Garrett, J.. W. Crim, and J. G. Courtney. The Female College under Prof. Townes' care is still holding its own and doing good work. Female colleges are numerous, but it seems that all in the State are well patronized. And it should be so, for the girls go back home and stay, as a rule, longer than the boys who go to college. The old home feels the influence of the educated girl. The Graded School under Prof. Hughes, recently from Reidville, N.C., is moving on with a full attendance and a good corps of teachers. They have done a great deal for the city. About five years ago two houses, one for the east Bide of Reedy and one for the west Bide, were built. Both sides of the river have felt the good effects of the schools in bringing in good citizens to be among us. Several years ago a Presbyterian preacher said to the writer that Baptists were thicker in Edgefield county than anywhere he had ever been or heard of. After due allow ance is made for his exag?ration, (for the Baptists seemed to make him a little unsteady) the number af your Baptist readers is, no ioubt, large enough to make some ?vords about our churches here ex msable, which we may give you in i future issue. " Greenville has never what a boom is, but Letter still, she keeps m growing steadily in spite of the ?fcringencv in money matters. She las the climate and situation and ?.here is no reason why there should not be indefinite growth as the pears passey. C. Elmwood News. MR. EDITOR : Cotton picking is the favorite pastime of the farmers DOW a days, and the hum and whistle of the gins reminds us forcibly of "Old Tuinblin." Marriage bells have at last begun to jingle around Elmwood. We have heard some good preaching lately from Revs. Booth, Blalock, Rook, and Parish.

He fulfilled the pledges which the party made to the people and gave us a wise and economical administration of public affairs.

She Now Advises Kansas Repul?. Heans to Vote for Harrison. NEW YORK, Oct, 15.-special from Topeka, Kansas, says: The sensation of the day in Kansas is the interview with Mrs. Lease, who has been accompanying Gen. Weaver on his tour through the Southern States. She recites the indignities they were subjected to, and then declares that if a vote for Weaver is in reality a vote for Cleveland m this State, her desire is that the Populists scratch their ticket and vote for the Harrison ?lectors. Mrs. Lease is, next to Jerry Simpson, the strongest leader of the Kansas. Populists, and her ?xpresBed wishes have caused rreat consternation, not only in 1er own party but among the Demo ?rats. She concedes" every Sou ;hern .'State to Cleveland, and therefore, at this late day, indic ites her preference for Harrison. Ber advice will be followed by nany, but at this time it is imposa ble to say to what extent. NOT WANTED IN IOWA. DER MOINES, ia., Oct. 15.-Mrs. Lease, of Kansas, is booked for a mmber of/spenches in Iowa. R. G. Scott, chairman of the People's jarty State committee, to-day ielegraphed her that if the pub is'ied reports that she had advised he Populists to vote for Harrison vere true, she need not como into he State. After 1893-What? - In American politics we seldom ry to look beyond the next pre lidential election, and perhaps not .ery many people are trying to 'do t now, but it requires no special .if t of prophecy to see that very loon after 1893 something is going 0 happen in.the United States and hat in a most unmistakable way. [me times are ripe for it, and the nccessful postponement a matter if very doubtful possibility. The election of Mr. Cleveland in November is the strong probability ?fthe present, and it-is almost ure to be followed by a great poe tical upheaval in the Southern "tates which will leave the Demo ?ratic party little hope of carry ng haifa dozen of them in the residential campaign of 1896. We egard this as one of the certain esults of Mr. Cleveland's election, md we are in no way alarmed at it the prospects. Both the Demo ;ratic and the Republican parties irould have to.adjust themselves to 1 new basis, and the civil war rould be ' eliminated from poli ics. It might cost Mr. Cleveland md the Democratic party some ?umiliation, but it would hurt leither of them ?nd would be ' for he great advantage of the county If we conceive the possibility of Jr. Harrison's reinauguration, the lompletfc extermination of the lepublican party follows ?jna urally. Such a policy as has been Unstrated by him and his faction annot be maintaintained in time if peace. If he were re-elected the fleets of his policy, reacting on lis party, would completely dom iralize it. The country would rise n 1894 as it lose in 1890, and in .896 it would complete the work >y polling the votes of nine-tenths if the States against Radicalism, h only one way does it seem poss ble that such an event could be iver ted-by foreign war. Af ter the lefeat of 1890 Harrison seemed to ealize that policy could not be larried out with the county at >eace. Undoubtedly he was very mxious to .have a war for cam >aign purposes, and if again naugurated with .the complete uin of his party otherwise inevi able through its control by his action, it is to this old tyannical md murderous expsdient of forc ng war to escape responsibility in >eace that he would naturally turn. Only by forcing foreign war toes it seem possible that the lepublican party could long urvive Harrison's re-election. And his expedient would as surely eacton them as it did on the )emocratic.party which, when lt breed the war with Mexico for ?olitical effect, revived the dying Vhig party, elected the Whig, General Taylor President, and nade inevitable the period of wenty-five years of retirement rom power in which Democracy ias done penance for the invasion md subjugation of Mexico.-St. Louis Republic.

Douglass, the Massae husetts shoe manufacturer, whos< picture adorns so many of thc newspapers in this country knocked the McKinley tariff ou; in one round at Brockton th( other night. Rising Sun Morse who made so great an ass of him self at the last session of Con gress, said some time ago thal Mr. Douglass was getting so pro sperous under the McKinley.tarifi bill that he could not afford ti run" for Congress. In his speed at Brockton, Mr. Douglass infor med Mr. Morse that "the McKiu ley bill had nothing to do with thc prosperity of the shoe business, &i I can prove to him by an examina tion of my books. The McKinley tariff went into effect Novembei IA, 1890, and for three months following my business fell off 30 per cent. How did I regain it?" continued Mr. Douglass. "By doubling my force of salesmen and increasing the amount of my news paper advertising." Mr. Douglass discussed the free hides question and its relation to the shoe industry. He said that Brockton's prosperity was due to free raw material and that what was good for the shoe industry was also good for the iron,.building, and woollen industries. Go^d for the man who makes good shoes at $3 a pair and does not ask or expect any legislation from Congress to i enable him ta keep up with the procession. The fearful will observe that Mr. Douglass has been prosperous, in spite of the Mc Kinley law, by "increasing the amount of my newspoper advertis ing." A hit, a palpable hit!-News and Courier.
