Cotton Wei shea* Elected. On Monday last the County Board of Comir issioners held an election in the office of the board in order to give those who sell colton on the Edgpfield ixarket au opportunity to express their preference as to who should be chosen as public cotton weigher There were, a goodly number of representative farmers iu from every section' whieh made the vote heavier than was at first expected. Two hundred and eighty three votes were cast as follows: J. W. Cheatham, 130; H. C. Watson, 113; M. A. Taylor, 34, and J. W. Reecp, 6. Mr. J. W. Cheatham having received the highest num ber of votes he was declared elec ted. The position of public cotton weigher is not a sinecure. While it pays well (about $400 uet)for the amount of actual work that is done, yet there is a world of un pleasantness conuected with it. The weigher may be conscientious and try.very so hard to please the public* yet if he holds the good will and esteem of seventy five per cent of the people with whom he.d?alsheis fortunate. In this position, as in every other of a public nature, it is impossible to Eatisfy everybody. You may please "Tom" and "Dick" but "Harry" is certain to fall out with you. Mr. Cheatham will have a com modious platform and well balan ced ?cales, ready to weigh your cottou when the season opens. Prayer-meeting Topics. Rev. C. E. Burts bas done everything possible to increase the attendance upon and arouse a deeper iuterest in the Wednesday evening prayer-meetiugs at the Baptist church and his efforts have been crowned with success.

Several miles above Mr. Williams' farm the ciops wore greatly dam-, aged by hail. The cry for water, more water, comes from every section of the couuty, and slate, too. Hundreds of wells are dry, springs that never failed before have ceased to run, branches in many pastures are aB dry an Sahara. The very limited rainfall which has extended overi a period of two years has caused it all. However, it.will turn out| all right. What is needed now is more patience and more faith. : FOR SALE : All kinds and grades of lumber. Send me youij orders. D. B. HOLLINGSWORTH. A report to the effect that Mr. R. E. Morgan has decided not to make the race for treasurer has been circulated in some sections of the county, and he desires to correct that false rumor by assur ing bis friends that he is in the race to the finish. Owing to very grievous misfortunes he has not been and will not be able to make as thorough canvass as he would like. Mr. H. G. Arthur drove in town ou Saturday in a buggy that was purchased by his uucle, the late Capt. H. B. Gallman, thirty-three years ago. The vehicle was built "by hand" of selected material and can stand more "wear and tear" to-day than many buggies that are just out of the factory. The beau tiful new coat of paint, the handi work of_Mr6. Arthur, hes given it a new lease of life. Some of my friends persuuded me to make the race for Couuty Commissioner, which I did not de cide to do until a few days ago. I will say to my frieudB and voters that it will be impossible for me to make a thorough canvass of the county but will try to attend ail campaign meetiugs and if you see fit to elect me as mo of the board J will try to attend to the duties of the office to tlie best of my ability and to the interest of Edgefield Couuty. I thank you for your support two years ago, and in advance for same in coming election. Resnectfully. J. 0. SCOTT. A few .in asl ins, au I mercerized white goods left. Yours at Cost. C. E. MAY. In this idsue of the Adveitiser Mr. W. D. Holland, one of the leading citizens of Trenton, an nounces his candidacy for the office of Superintendent of Educa tion. Mr. Holland is well fitted, both intallectually , and in ac tual experience as a teacher, for this important office. He is a full graduate of Furman University and was for several years superin tendent of the Johnston Institute, which Fchool he managed very successfully. Mr. Holland is an aggressive young man of high ideals and exalted character, and if elected will make a good officer. We like best to call SCOTT'S EMULSION a food because it stands so em- 5 piratically for perfect nutrition. ?

This is the reason KO many of our citizens and best class of farmers ere humbugged into buying a cheap piano and very, frequently at nu exorbitant price. Some finns have a method of sending out flaming literature with a lot of testimoni?is from people who know absolutely noth ing about a piano. This class of stuff is priced from $500.00 to $1,000.00, but can be bought for almost nothing, for it is worthless io a musical education. Then the retail dealer cornes along and pushes the cheapest pianos he can get for the biggest price. Don't get picked up by these fakes. You want the best and cac got it. Your children deserv-o a good piano aud au artistic piano. We note thal, our greatest col leges usejthe Stiert1 piano. Elizabeth College, Charlotte, uses it exclusively and has twenty. Converse College, Spartanburg, S. Cuses it exclusively and has thirty-six. Brenau Conservatory of Music, Gainesville, Ga., USCB it exclusively and has fifty. The Baptist Female College, Raleigh, has placed an order for thirty-one and will use it exclusively. Old Salem Academy at Salem, N. C., has adopted the Stieff. It is med in many colleges all over the South and East. When the heads of such colle ges select the Stieff piano, wouldn't it be well for you to profit by their knowledge and ex perience? Besides, the Stieff piano is a Southern product manufactu red by a Southern man and is sold direct from factory to friendn, saves middleman's profits in your home and you secure the finest pia^o made.
