Killebrew are on a visit to relatives in Edgefield. President and Mrs. A. E. Padgett s>pent a dap in Augusta this week. Misses Fannie Marsh and Jessie Day will spend Merry Makers week in Augusta, Mr. W. E. Dobey took a trip to Aiken on Monday, thence to Augusta to take in the merry making. Greenwood is to have a round bale press. How does the Edgefield gin nery stand on this question? A good deal of editorial and local matter was crowded out of this week's issue by letters from the people. Bright and winsome Miss Isadora Tompkins, of Colnmbia, is visiting friends and relatives in Edgefield. Capt. W. fl. Brunson took in the Charleston reunion and was highly delighted. He returned home on Mon day. Mr. and Mrs. John B. Hill with Misses Daisy and Marion, returned from the Charleston reunion on Satur day last. Free rural mail delivery for Edge field has uot yet materialized, but Congressman Talbert says we shall have another chance, and if not why not? Auditor Hal ti wanger is very anxious to have the township assessors bring in their returns in order that he may make out his abstract. Mr. Haiti wan ger begs that these returns be handed in at once. A letter from Mrs. Ellie Jones, of Columbia, daughter of Capt. Jas. C. Brooks, brines the sad intelligence that her father is slowly sinking and may not be alive at this writing. The Newberry Oil Mili and ginnery will make the round bale next season instead of the square. Our Plum Branch correspondent, "Don Carlos," writes of a Lowrey (round bale) gin at that place. Look out for the round bale All the Sunday-schools of Edgefield are i?vited to the mass meeting in the Opera House on next Sunday morning at 10 o'clock. Let all the children come out and fill the Opera House with their presence and their happy faces. Mr. John B. Davis carried a load of hoes up to his Saluda county planta tion on Tursday of this week, the hoes are for cotton chopping. Although Mr. Davis is not a cotton-tot, he makes a little of the fleecy staple, enough to do him. The Edgefield County Alliance will meet at Edgefield on Monday, June otb, 1S99, at 12 M. Sub-Alliances hold ing certificates of stock in the State Alliance Exchange will send delegates to the meeting. S. M. SMITH, Pres. S. B. MAYS, Sec'ty. There will be a mass meeting of the young people of Edgefield in the Opera House on next Sunday afternoon. There will be a number of prominent visitors present, and an appropriate and instructive program arranged. All the young people of Edgefield and visiting young people, and both old young are cordially invited to be pres ent. Some weeks since the Board of Equalization for this ^jun ty appointed a committee to investigate the prop erty holdings in the county, ia the shape of bonds, mortgages, trust funds, moneys, etc., not returned for taxation, and to report same with a view to hav ing such properties placed on the tax books. This committee is now busily at work going throt 3n the records of the clerk's office. If our town has not.an ordinance forbidding the driving of loose horses through our street: there ought to be such ar: ordinance. One day of this week as little Ellen Dunovant, daugh ter pf Mr. and Mrs. W. L. Dunovant, was returning home from school, a drove of loose horses passed through our town, and teeing little Ellen they took after her. two or three of them, knocked her down and pawed at her virile in this helpless position. It is a wonder and a mercy that she was not killed. As it is, the nervous shock was very great, and this bright little girl w?.s confined to her bed for several days, although at this writing she is doing well, and will probably be up in a day or two.

I want to carry you over the roads that are under the direction of our new Bupervison who ?B doing well, as to tbe finances and road working of the county. Sergeant D. P. Self, whojhas control of the chain-gang is the right man in the right place. He has had the roads worked well and as the old saying is "done them up in apple pw order," and from what I have seen I think he has doue them up ia peach pie order. Mr Editor, you krow peach pie and sweet milk is hard to beat-aDd so is Sergeant Self in the management of the chaingaug. I doubt very much if a mau could be found iu the State who could control a chain-gang and work couviets to a better advantage than the Ser geant.

Stoppai Jr. the goverment of the chaingaug. It was uncalled for and unjust. They were mistaken as to the m an age rue nt of and amount of work done by the convi*t3. They did not know what they were talk- j ing about. I believe if the geu fle m?n did know the true state of a??airB they would not have made the report. I There arr; three classes of men liable to road duty. The first are good business men but too selfish. They complaiu of bad roads, but will not accept the position of over seer. This shows they have no public spirit and will not lend a helping hand for the good of the public. The result is the supervisor has to appoint just anyone he can get forover-seer, competent or not The second class hands are men who go on che road when waruod, but do very little work. They growl and complain, the ovbr-seer can never work the road at a time that suits them. They aro stumbl ing blocks in the way of good hands. The third class are men who when warned to work strike a^e^e line for the doctors and for the F. nf ul sum of fifty cents many of the doctors will give them a certificate, sick or not. This is wrong and ought not to 1 e done, no doctor should encourage the road disease but should endeavor to curse it. this disease he could eradicate with out medicine. Thanks to our law-makerp, they bave a remedy for this disease and I am glad a certificate is no good unless a man i? tried by a 'trial justice and acquited. I know a man in this CDiintiy who was tried by a trial justice but his certificate did not clear him. He was put on the chain gang ten days and wished he had never seen a certificate. It is a se rious thing for a mau to go to a trial justice with a certificate and be found guilty and this sentence be prononuced against him: Depart from me ye law-breaker to the chain-gang for ten days." I know neither you nor your certifi calte. The road disease must be cured and the sooner the better for it is a sin and curse to the country. We are needing rain very badly. Tne farmers are blue over the prospect for a good crop. We have clods upon top of clods and it will take hard work to pulverize them and faimers are behind with their work-one fourth of the corn crop is hardly planted yet; the wheat crop, generally, look.s well but oats will be almost a failure.
