WEDNESDAY. NOVEMBER ~>l. 1S03.
On the first page of ibis issue
"IVill be found several comments on
the resent letter of Gen. Hampton
in which he intimates that he will i
organize Democratic clubs independ- j
eut of the regularly constituted Democi&tic
party now of the State.
It seems to be ihe opinion of all ;
the newspapers, except a few extreme j
radical ones, that the proposition of
General Hampton is unwise and
impolitic and that the only
result of such a move would
be to bedim the glorious record
of the old General and the absolute
and permanent division of the
white vote and consequently au appeal
to the negro vote, either of which
is to be deplored.
We are glad to see that Gen. !
Hampton has stated that he
morio fViA sno-p-estion and
?oo
would have nothing more to do in ;
the matter unless the people of the j
State signified their desire for him i
? to undertake the work." This, we
think, is a wise decision, ^nd it may
safely be affirmed that this danger
of a division of the white voters has
passed, for, if he adheres to this de^?'
termination, h6 will never be asked
by "the people" to interfere with
their political affairs.
It is uufortunate, however, that the
letter of General Hampton was not
i-i _ a i
written in a more aunaoie temper.
He seemed to Lave forgotten that a
large majority of the men who were
behind him in 76 are now active and
enthusiastic members of the Reform
wing of the Democratic party, and
that they are now just as patriotic
and as good Democrats as then, and
hence his letter is peculiarly insulting
and unjust to them.
TRIP THROUGH THE COUNTY.
In our recent trips iu company
with the County Treasurer on his
rounds we were placed under obligaAlrvnn

by quite a number of citizens of the
county. We spent a most pleasant
night at the hospitable home of
Uncle Josh Shealy, who is one of the
most prosperous farmers in his section.
At Mr. G. W. Lindlers, at
Chapin, we sat down to a most excellent
dinner. He is an energetic,
live business man, conducting a first
"*,5^p^^elj^^t and cabinet busiH.
Suber, who is a clever and popular
gentleman, has unqualified praise
from the traveling public for his excellent
table and comfortable enter
tainment. At \\ mte Koct trie iatcn
string of our good friend J. Cal
Shealy, who is a prosperous merchant
and clever gentleman, is
hanging way out in the street, so bis
friends can easily reach it. AVe enjoyed
a delightful night with him.
At Irmo we spent a night at Mr. E.
F. Metz's who made us feel entirely
at home and treated us like a king.
"Winding up the Fork we ate one of
the best dinners we ever sat down to
at Squire J. AY. Dreher's, who every
body knows as a most hospitable and
popular gentleman, a model farmer,
prosperous merchant and able Trial
Justice.

excellent dinner at New Brookland.
That night we received the most en?
!
joyable hospitality at the house of
Mr. W. N. Martin. Thence we went
to Mr. Archie Wolfe's, where we partook
of a dinner fit forjjan Epicurean.
Mr. Wolfe is one of best farmers of
the county and is successfully working
convict labor. The next night
was spent in the hospitable home of
our old friend, Dr. W. T. Brooker,
who was for years one of the best
Representatives the county has ever
had in the Legislature, and entertains
his friends with lavish atten
^ tion and kindness. We stopped for
dinner at the Johnson House, at
|p? Swansea, where we had as good a
* mpfil as a critical commercial traveler
w
r would wish. Swansea is a prosperous
and growing town and we found
the following clever gentlemen doing ;
heavy mercantile business: Hast &
Rast, and Craft & Johnson We j ,
were most favorably impressed with j j
the outlook of the place, as it will be j
in the near future one of the best
business towns on the South Bound |
railaoad. From there we went to j
Mr. Jos. W. Feeders at the Cross
Roads, where we spent the night and
took dinner, and were delightfully
entertained by that excellent gentleman
and his interesting family.
That night we spent at the home of
that whole soul brother, Sam. P.
Shu u> pert, who has everything
Around him to make a happy one.
Our next stopping was at Mr. G.
W. Reeder's who every body knows
as a kind and hospitable gentleman, :
a successful farmer and turpentine J
manufacturer. Our stop with him J
was most pleasant and homelike, j
Then we weDt to see our old friend j
I Mr. John McCartha, on Black creek, j
I No visitor can fail to be pleased with j
I a visit to John who treats you like a I
I brother and gives you the best of j
fcMj^^^^ervthing obtainable. We enjoyed ;
part oi the following <3a}: Sve e^petii
with that handsome and popular
gentlemen, who we w cinder, has never
captured a fair helpmate, Mr. Ruben
Barr, at the old homestead, where he
and his mother and sister know,
how and do entertain with royal
hospitalit}-. We spent two nights
with Capt. Griffith who everybody in
tho county knows is one of the
i. Li ilL 1 1 J
cleverest geuueiutu iu uei rxjiueis
and who keeps one of the best houses
of ent^tiainment 011 the line of the
Charlotte, Columbia & Augusta raiiroau.
Thence we went to that place
of peace and plenty, Col. D. T. Barr's
where he and his good wife and
daughter exerted themselves to make
us feel at home and sat us down to a
dinner that a Vanderbilt might have

J. Drafts' next day where we were
entertained with that well known
hospitality for which he and his
better half are noted.
The only reason that we were not
ashamed of our eating capacity at
these hospitable homes, was the constant
demonstration of the enormous
quantity of good things which the
County Treasurer and Auditor could
store away. We must be candid
enough ho /ever, to acknowledge thai
we felt a little envious of the Treasurer,
as he was not only the handsomest
man in the crowd, but we
had daily evidence that he is the
most popular official we ever had the
good fortune to travel with. It may
be that eating heartily makes him
popular with the kind people whe
enjoyed seeing their good things
relished.
From what we saw and beard we
gather that the cotton crop in this
county is not more than an average
of one-half. The corn crop was good
in some sections but a failure in
others. Small grain is being bountifully
sown. A great many farmers
are holding their cotton for bettei
prices.
The Ways and Means committee
propose to incorporate a light tax on
incomes which exceed $8,-500 per
annum, in the tariff bill which it is
now arranging. It is believed that
a 2 per cent rate on incomes above
that amount will yield a handsome
addition to the revenue of the gov
nvnmo nrl molrn iirv onr novoooc.

The State newspaper heads an article
from the Dispatch as "Gloating

only ' gloated over the defeat" of
bossism as represented by Mr. Cleveland.

their earthly labors. Win. Thomas
Derrick Sr., with his wife came from
Dutch Fork many years ago, aod
settled near the present site of Lex.
ington C. H., where the children
above named were born. Later in
life the parents moved to within 5 or
G miles N. E. of Leesville, and with
that industry, economy and good
management characteristic of the
Derrick family, accumulated property
' and made an ample support for the
children. After the aged father and
mother died, -Polly and Christena,
who were never married, moved to
their nephew's Oliw: A. Derrick,
where they "lived until their decease.
' These two sisters united with Salem
Ev. Lutheran church very early in
life, and remained truly loyal in their
love and zeal for their Savior until
death. When they were unable in
later years to attend the sanctuary,
they yearned for the means of grace,
1 which from time to time, were dis'
pensed at their home. Increasing
' age and infirmity served to ripen
them for heaven, and when the end
came we doubt not that they were

"William Thomas Derrick passed
1 most of his life as a farmer on the
old homestead. "When quite young
5 he became a member of Salem Ev.
Lutheran church, on whose Kegister
his name is still found. Fifteen
years ago he moved to Leesville.
Five years ago he was stricken with
paralysis; subsequently he was again
stricken; and finally a third stroke
which terminated his earthly life.
He leaves a wife, three sons and one
daughter.
' These aged members were land
marks of the olden days, and served I
' as links to connect the present with
[ this past three generations. Their
death severs that connection, and
reminds us most vividly how rapidly
the years are hastening by. One
r striking characteristic of their life
* was their indomitable perseverance
i and enerer^and they were never so
halid^ "
full of work.
' Their mortal remains lie side by
i side in the old family graveyard near
' which their youthful lives were spent
and together they await the sound of
the last trump. The funeral services
were performed by their pastor, Rev.
L. E. Busby, in the midst of a con'
course of relatives and friends.
L. E. B.
John B. Kyzer was torn March
30th, 1826 and died Oct. 15tL, 1893,
making his earthly pilgrimage 67
years 6 months and 15 days.
He was baptized in infancy and
in early life connected himself with
St. John's E. L. church of which he
remained to the day of his death a
faithful, consistent and zealous member,
occupying for many years a ;
piominent position as officer and | j
S. S. superintendent in the cliui ch of
his choice, which he so dearly loved. ;
As private and public citizen, he filled .
many positions of honor and trust. ;
His usefulness in all the relations ]
of life is best known to those who i
were nearest to him, and who knew
him best. ;
He was the affectionate father of <
nine children four of which preceeded <
him to the spirit land and had also
twelve grand children one of which i
crossing the shadowy river before ]
him beckoned him home.
He leaves the loved companion of 1

it is true; it always appeals to the

Absolute Obedience.
"As an illu Oration of 'Stonewall'
Jackson's belie? in *he matter of absolute
obedience to the letter of an
order," said a Confederate veteran,
"I have heard a story told of an incident
thatoccured during the Mexican
war. Gen. Jackson was then a lieutenant
of artillery, commanding a
f n?A rrMno Tn o
OCUUUU tULu^uacu Ui iivi\j ^ uuo. xii a
certain action be was ordered to
occupy a certain position and open
fire upon the. enemy. Hie two guns
were started for +he place, which was
very exposed, and before reacning it
he saw that he could not remain there
ten minutes without losing every
horse and man he had. At the same
time he saw the by moving some 300
yards away his fire would be more
effective. But his orders to open fire
must be obeyed, so reaching
the designated position, the two
guns were fired. Then they were
limbered up and moved to the newposition,
and fire was opened in earnest
and with effect."
The Silver Agitation.
The silver agitation is making a
great stir but the benefits from it
