And to undertake to express my gratitude would be useless. It is said that ''from the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh," but with me "from the abundance of the heart the mouth faileth to speak,'' for I cannot command language half sufficient to convey my appreciation. You may rest assured that I will give you my best services, and my prayer will bo, after my return from legisla tive duties, to be accosted on all sides with, "Well done thou good and faithful servant." Gratefully yours, W. A. STROM. To the Public: I desire through your columns to thank the people of Edgefield county for ?ieir generous and lib eral support of me for the office of County Supervisor in the primary just ended.

Mr. Editor: Please allow me space to thank the gold people of Edgefield county for their very liberal support of me in the cam paign just ended.

X'moBt emphatically thank the Hampton club for so lib?rai a sup port, a club that I always stood by and supported, often against men who have proved to be better friends. Very respectfully, 0. 0. BURNETT. Mr. Editor: Please perm?tame through your valuable columns to return my most sincere thanks Lo the people of Edgefield county for I he generous and loyal support they gave me in my candidacy for the office of Treasurer in the pri mary elec?ou; and to express to my worthy opponents my high ap preciation of the uniform kindness " and courtesy which they manifest ed towards me throughout the en- ' tire canvass. Gratitude upon the one band, and.constantly faithful service to the other, are the returns which a public servant can make to the people for the bestowal of a trust; of the first of these, I have now a heart full ; and as to the second, I hereby give ray pledge by every consideration that can be binding upon my conscience. If I shall be elected, it will be my constant en deavor to become worthy of the great confidence which my fellow citizens have expressed in me. Very respectfully, CM. "WILLIAMS. Mr. Editor: I am sincerely grateful to the people of Edgefield County for the very flattering vote which they gave me in the first primary for the office of Dispenser; and I shall so discharge its douties as to prove my worthiness of the confidence which was thus mani fested in me. I wish also to exprese my ap preciation of the respectful trea ment which I received from my opponents from the beginning to to the (md of the canvass. We met as friends; and we parted as friends; and I trust that those of my competitors who were not so fortunate as to get into the second primary, will find it agreeable to stand by me now. Very respectfully, AVORT BLAND. I take this means of thanking my friends, for their kindness in helping rae in the'race for clerk of court. I have been painfully aiflic':ed with my back and am now under the treatment of Dre. Tompkins and Marsh. For this reason I am not able to make an active canvass but hope that my friends will take care of me in my absence. Respectfully, J. B. HILL. -- / To the Peophof Edgsfield county : The first primary election has been held, I take this method of thanking the good people of Edge field for their many kindnesses shown me during the canvass and for their generous support. I made a cleau, fair race anti beat my op ponents. The second primary elec tion is now on and; I appeal to the people of Edgefield couuty to stand by me. Soine of my oppo nents are circulating throughout the county tfy?t I scratched the J names of Senator Tillman and Congressman Talbert off of my ticket at tbe last primary election, and they are also circulating that I voted for Haskell in 1890. I de riounce these reports as infamously false aud as having been gotten up solely to injure me. If I am be aten fairly at the primary, I will do ae I have always done, support the nominees of the party. But I do not want to be beaten unfairly. Yours respectfully, W. B. COGBUKN. Capt.
