Be a pattern to others, and then all will go well; for a whole city is infected by the licentious passions and vices of great men, I so it is likewise reformed by their moderation. - CICERO. After sixty-seven days of ex amining and cross-examining wit nesseses the testimony is all iu for the prosecution in the Gaynor and Greene trial. Ont of sheer mer cy the lcngsuffering jurors ought to'be granted a thirty days1 vaca tion before the defense opens. For Borne time Dr. George B. Cromer, of dewberry, bas been ~ named as? -a possible opt onent of Senator Tillman. He has put at rest, .however,-all such rumors and political gossip by stating* posi 4ively a few days ago Jlhat he will . not be a candidate for.the United States senate. President Jackson, of the Au gusta-Aiken electric'road, has let the contract for straightening and othei wise improving his road bed. Af ter the contemplated iroprovs mentb shall have been made the - time for making the trip from Aiken to Augusta will be reduced from one hour and a half to one hour, whfcb will increase the popularity ..aud patronage of the rond. The court of final resort of th ic state has decreed that two youi g wbi e men must- buffer the extreme penalty of the the law for wantonly killing a negro in Dar lington couuty a j7ear ago. One is t? be hanged and the other to be ~ imprisoned for 1 ile. Wouder what our northern friends-especially those of Springfield, Ohio, where the negroes have recently been unmercifully treated-will say of this? - The use of request blauks, which the new - board is very properly enforcing, is one of the best features of the dispensary law. Many persous-particularly young men-who would otherwise do so, will not buy whiskey when thf y are required to make a record of the purchase in black and wh*ite.. The non-enforcement .. of tcis clause of the law in the past has doubtless h ad much to do with th? steady increase in tho 'sales of liquor:.!. If Aiken. and Augueta do not Attila other and larger hotels-foir the -northern tourists Edgefield will have to ?nter the field and provide accommodations for them. The over-crowded condition of the ; large tourist hotels of Augusta caused Andrew -Carnegie to be -turned away a few days ago. We are doubtless better off by having some cloBe, narrow, and prejudiced wealthy norther nore remain at home, but there are oihers who ?re broad, generous and philan thropic who should not only be in duced to come among us but tarry late aud long. Judge Alton B. Parker, Demo cratic nominee in the last election, in a recent address in Charlotte, said that in* order to be victorious the Democratic party must select a southern man as standard bear er. Judge Parker has seemingly lost sight of the fact, that while the south has brilliant and brainy men she is woefully lacking lu the other prerequisite of success ?old. ''Money makes the mare go" in national politics now as never before. The southland has not enough national banks, insurance companies and other morned cor porations, not to mention individ uals, as a backing to afford a southern mau a ghost of a chance. Hon.M. F. Ansel, of Green ville, candidate for governor, re iterate8 -his platform so far as the liquor plank is concerned. Mr. Ansel is unalterably oppos?e, to 'the system of a State dispensary, and says in part : "I am in favor of local county option, as between prohibition and county dispensaries: that is, I an. in favor of any couuty in the State voting upon the quBtiou al to whether they wish prohibition -for tbat couuty; or whether th?; wish county dispensaries. If t ?majority of the qualified voters o' the county desire prohibition foi that particular county, then I an one who believes that t^ey should have it." This is a strong platform ; om that tb thoroughly Democratic. What ?6 going to be done tob:in? the Sporfanburg-Aikeu railroad by Edgefieli? Will our people noi T.urn-anaud or make an effort tc secure it? Those who are back o1 the enterprise are thoroughgoing business men, . men who briuj, tb insta to pass. One of them in' writing - from Spa-tanburg . to t citizen' of bur town, has s?id : "Nothing wi'I be left undou? here that would cause the 1 scheme to lag." After plai)3 are fixed and a rou'e definitely decided upon it will tben be too late to act. Should not a committee of ourcitizeus be appniuted to coufer with the pro moters of the road, lo see what eau be dont? Certainly. Patronize The Rural Free Delivery Routes. Ever eiuce Hon. J 0. PatterBcn leceived bis commission be bas beeu actively interested in those thiug8 that are of greaten benefit to the masses of his constitueucy. Knowing that a recent ruling jeopardized many of tbe rural free delivery routes in- bis district,|Con gressmau Patterson called at the department a ftw day8 ago to leam the real status'(if the situa tion, to see if anything could be done. He was informed tha? au inspection of the rural delivery service had been instituted, and while no actual number ofpieceB has been fixed for the continuance or discontinuance of any route, the authorities believe that the -average.m iil route should bauble 3,000 pirces of mail .per month, with a possible minimum of 2,000. However, the action of the govern ment, it is stated, will depend upon conditions along the route. Eveu though 2,000 pieces of mail are handled and it appearB that all of"the persous along the route do not patronize it or avail them selves of the advantage?, the dai ly service will be supplanted with an every-other-day Bervi ;e or dis continued eui ?rel v. ThoBe who reside in fie rural dislr'cts receive no greater boor, from tbe national gr /eminent than bis free delivery -mail service, and it would be nothing whorl of a c? lami'y to have it removed. Ur^ vour friends \au'd neighbors to pat rou iz-* in every possible ?va\ the route that is nearest them. COLD SPRING.

She lived the lift of the righteous and died the death of tba righteous, and ;s now at rest with her Loid. She leaves a father, step-mother, one brother, three sisters, a husband, five small children and a host of friends tb mourn her .IOBS. We pray God's blessjugs^to rest on the bereaved ca'^^gi|^HHM of'?'ef? from, heart-failure. Mrs. Talbert" was about fifty-eight years old. She was for many years a teacher at Rehoboth, Plum Branch and White Town. All of her pupils loved her and doubtless many of them will rise up to-day and call her name blessed. Mrs. Talbert was a devoted Christian. For many years ehe was a teacher in tbe Sunday school at Rehoboth church She was also organist and took s great interest in the music. She was a leader in the ladies mission ary society and all looked to her .br counsel and advice. fcThis good woman was always a friend to her pastor. The Rehoboth church hus lost one bf its very beBt members. Oh, how the Rehoboth commu nity and church will miss her. Mrs. Talbert leaves a husband, two sisters and one brother, two daughters, three sons and a host of friends to mourn her loss. She was buried Thursday afternoon at Rehoboth. Rev. J. T. Littlejohn, her pastor conducted the funeral service. We extend our sympathy to all the bereave " ones. Mr. Willie Seigler. was tbrowr from a wagon last week and sprained his back, and it will be several weeks before he will be abk. to be but again.

Edgefield Mercantile Compam Death of Mrs. W. L. Talbert. There is no d ath to the right eous; What we call d?ath i<? but a transition-an entering upon life tn its truest, broadest, highest, fullest seuBe. Thus we look 'upon the passing away of Mrs. W. L l'ail ert which occurred Ht her home near Rehoboth ou W^dii'S day. In her demise ii tower ol strength, a pi 11 ii r r.f old Rehoboth church has bien rpmovrd. She was, ever zealous in good works, a raith ful laborer iii the Lord's vineyard. Long after hei mortal body shall have returned to i te te i nd red dust the ii fluence of her kind words, noble deed?, exempla ry wa'k and conversation, s ball live to point others to the Saviour whom she lored and s< rved for so many years. While many grieve over this sudden severance ot earthly ties, jet they haVe comfort in tbe thought that to this g^od woman death had ?o sting. j Death of a Saintly Woman. Mrs. May Wates Dorn, the be loved wife of Mr. George Dom, departed this life on Wednesday morning last. The interment was held a.t Red Oak Grove church on Thursday. Five little motherless children and a devoted, sorrow-strickeu husband are the survivors of this once happy household. Strange, ap viewed by finite mortals, are som pf the dispensations of Providence. We cannot UDderstand now but il will be revealed to us at that day Mrs. Dorn w: s a gentle, sweet 8pirited, consecrated Christian wo man, whose influence was a powei for good in her church aud com munity. God has callpd her u, nigher. May He who abounds in i u fin it? ?ove and mercy be as a mother t< the little oi.es that are :efi bf bind.
