is house. This he did, br.t re- *
li ned the next night and enticed
le girl from her homo. They
rove to Lancaster, where the
oung lady boarded the train the |
bxtday for this city, Caston arving
a day later. Upon reachig
Rock Hill and making in- i
uiries as to the whereabouts of ,
is daughter, Mr. Robertson was

Than IIih 10,000 Majority

Nearly 18,000.
The Stute, 12th inst.
The Stato this morning presents
to its readers the fall vote for the
ontiro State for the senator and
all State nflipnru
Latimer's majority ever Evans
grew steadily on the strength of
the outlying precincts nnd ho fin
ishos with a lead of nearly 18,000
votes. Mr. I ley ward for goveiv
nor has inoro than gotten his 10,000
majority, against which so
many bets were made in various
portions of tho State. Frost wins
for adjutant genoral by nearly 7,900
votes and Gantt succeeds
Cooper as secretary of tho state
by the comfortable majority of
3,025. Canghman receives the
iecond largest majority in all the
contests, 10,498.
The total vote polled has beon
1 surprise. But few thought
that it would reach over 80,000,
but it went over 91,000, but 4,300
less than that cast in the first
primary. A significant fact is
that the scratching in the senatoral
race was not as general as was
ixpected.
Col. Sloan of liichland made a
5ne race for lieutenant governor
ind has beaten Mr. Gary by noary
3,COO votes.

A Card From John F. Croighton. s|
Mr. Editor:?It has been re
ported since I left Lancaster and ei
came to Columbia, S. C., by two
men, whom 1 had supposed were
my friends, at Heath Springs, ^
my former home, that 1 had been
CI
placed on the county chaingang
of Richland county. Now they
have circulated absolute lies on
it
mo. I am 48 years old and have n
always tried to live so that my ei
character would bo above re- h
proach, as 1 think can be easily s<
proven by my friends. 1 havo
been in Columbia for eight ^
months and hare not been to the
mayor's court but one time, anil
that was only as a witness in be
half of a friend. If any one in
1 Lancaster county thinks I am on ^
the chaincanir or have been on it.
