MoKie died at borne in the Colliers section on 1 Saturday night after a short illness heart trou ble. Deceased was 69 ye of age. And was an old time ty pi Southern gentleman, without fear a without reproach, and yet withal gentle and mild mannered as a \ man. He left a wife and six childi who have the sympathy of many n loved and admired father and busbai Dr McKie's general worth, his qus ties of bead and heart were such as be worthy a more extended not than we can give this week. Let's Be Up and Working, Mr. Editor: .None can dec that deepite tbe seeming le th ar; -the l.stle&s sleepiness and mc bid drowsiness-of our peop? that the demand upon ns to me the exigencies of the times, shou be forcing ns to take some acti' in response to the requirements the situation. Here we have grand magnificent education Institution, renowned far ai wide for its educational capaci and admirable facilities, oiTerii and gu&?&uteiiug free edueation f the ensuing five years to all thep pils of the Edgificld Scholastic Di trict-extending two miles in a directions. from the court houi square-au offer that many of oi citizens throughout all sections < the county, and even beyond oi couoty limits, are anxious to ava themselves of. Bul owing to tl lack of dwellings-there not beic a single vacant house in the tow -the many who wish to come 1 ouriiown with their families ai debarred'. What we want rigl now, above all things else, is som j ten or twenty neat cottages-thre to fiv? room dwellings. ! On the north and the sout sides of town we have numbers c splendid building Bites, and wh ic would be utilized at once if ou City Fathers, wculd ouly open u two or three new streets, so as t make said building sites more ac cessible. The street leadiug t Macedonia church ought to be con tinned due north, to Addisou ave nue-some four or five bundT yards-and which could be accom plisbed at a cost not exceedin; $125, including long bridge neces *88ary over branch and deep hoi low just beyond Macedonia church And then there ought to be a nev street opened up from the vicioit; of the cotton factory due south and to connect with the old Lonj Gaue road some two hundred yard or more west of the dwelling oi the Abney place. If our town coun eil could;pnly tealize the import ance of opening up these two nev .atreet* -at/once, and go to wort thereon with a vim, an impetui would be given to tho erection o new dwellings gratifying to would be-incomers and astonishing to all. Givens new streets, gentlemen ol city council, and a building boon will set in that will grmtly tend to the progress aod prosperity ol our dear old town. MORE STREETS. . Bryan Gan.ins: Everywhere. Latest' and most authentic advices from New York and In diana are to the effect that the electoral votes of these states will be giv6n to Bryan while Illinois and Ohio are very likely to. join in the landslide againt McKinley. In Indiana the stituation is well defined in the Chicago Record (Republican) which practically concedes the state to Bryan and Stevenson. Marked changes in the laboring centers, a bitter an tipathy to trusts, the Cuban Lostol steals, and the Porto Rican tariff measures, are said to have created a political revolution in. the Hoosier state which has become a stampede since the great Indianap olis convention of Democratic clubs. In New York the Democratic committee makes th? state me ot that Republican defections are re ported from every portion of the state, and tho Democrtic com mittee has so far received the names of over 50,000 Republicans who, it is claimed, will repudiate the preseut policy of their party vote for Bryan Nov. 6. Tho con cessions to the Democratic cause aregreatest in the farming district of the state. i The Democratic campaign managers are much pleased with the outlook and every indication points to a greater Democratic victory in this state than that registered in 1892. No lesB an observer than Lyman J. Gage concede-? Chicago to Mr. Bryan. Local Democratic leaders claim the city by 50,000 plurality. This will carry the state of Llinois into the Bryan column. In Ohio the chances of Demo cratic victory are no less favorable. It is claimed that devland will give Bryan 12, plurality and that 60 per cent of the Jones vote of 1898 will bellst for the Democratic electoral ticket. Maryland, Kentucky, . West Virginia and Dalaware are con sidered by the national committee to be safe for the Democrats. % # -fc BOOK BAGS, BOOK STRAPS, LUNCH BASKETS, IRISH TABLETS, PENCIL TABLETS, SLATES and PENCILS.
