Miller from the race for , County Supervisor, his many friends , again place him before the voters of this county, and still assert that we owe him this office for his faithfulness as a soldier, for beiDg disabled # from wounds received in the war, his * honesty, and his gift as a workman qualifying him to fill the cffice, we j again nominate him, and his many friends and army brothers ask the voters of Lexington county to re- * member him at the ballot box. 1 < Dropped Dead. The news of the sudden death of { Mrs. E C. Bearden in Columbia, will ^ be received by the readers of the ( Dispatch with profound sorrow and ^ regret. Monday afternoon, having j packed her trunk to go to the springs, j she was on her way to bid her sister j good-bye, and while passing Tarrar j Brothers' store she suddenly dropped \ near the spot where her husband ; was stricken with paralysis some \ years ago. Dr. Philpot pronounced ! the cause of her death heart failure. She was a native of this county ; and has a large circle of relatives J and friends. She was a sister of J Messrs. George B. and J. M. Eleazer J and Mrs. Dr. Wise. J ?? The Yorkville plan of assessing candidates for State officers is reprehensible,and if followed by the several counties, will prevent many a poor, but otherwise worthy man from seeking office. It is time for the Demo cratic voters of the State to repudiate the action of the York county Executive Committee. It has arrogated to itself powers which do not belong to it. By the refusal of a candidate to comply with its unjust, tyrannical and plutocratic demands, the votes cast for him in that county will not be counted, hence the rights of the Democratic voters are trampled under foot and are denied the j i privilege of voting for the men of i their choice. By what right of jus- j j tice, of law or of reason has the Ex- i 1 ecutive committee to refuse to count j the votes of a candidate who has ( * complied with all the requirements !, of the State committee? He has paid for the privilege of having the votes ; : cast for him counted and tabulated, and to make him pay for the same privilege twice, or more, or refuse to tabulate his vote, is bald face rob- i bery of the worst kind. The State j committee should be called together j and stop this thiDg or refund the as- 1 sessment it has collected from the candidates. my t I YOU WANT GOOD GOODS.

C., is I canvassing several sections of the i county in the interest of his institution. r Candidates should not forget to file their pledge with chairman Efird at once so that the tickets can be prepared and printed in ample 1 time for the election. The heat has been oppressively hot during the past week. Fortunately ! there have been no serious results to man or best in this vic:'nity on ac count of it. It is Mr. Samuel P. and not Rev. S. P. Shumpert who is a candidate for County Supervisor. He is a praci tical man and will make a good Su' pervisor if elected. The District Conference of the A M. E. church convened at New Bethel church in this place last Wednesday, and its^Bessions have been largely attended by the colored people of the town and surrounding country. WmPlat' & Co. are making gro j ceries move out their store by selling them at low prices.

Efird | and Meetze last Thursday and re tained them as^ounsel to defend the townships in the courts. The barbecue at Mr. S. B. Smith's last Saturday, was largely attended by tho people of that section of the county. The report is that the speeches by the several candidates were good but the dinner was better. Everybody had a pleasant time and good order and good humor prevailed. Walter Duncau shot and killed Joel Lorick last Friday, five miles north of Batesburg in Saluda county. They were well to do farmers and brother-in-laws. Lorick'e blood was the first to wet the soil of Saluda county and Duncan will be the first man in that county who will have to answer to the charge of murder. The barbecue at Tarrar's Springs next Saturday as an opportunity for our people to enjoy a good dinner t y a and a pleasant time, .uaaiea ana children can safely attend as the ut most order will be preserved. We hope that a large number of the people of this place will attend. Go out and have a pleasant time. There is perhaps no institution of the kind in the South which offers so many rare inducements as the Southern Business College of Asheville, N.

Meetze & Amick's cue was successfully brought off Saturday. Candidates were free'y circulating among the large crowd in attendance and the following made speeches; W. H. Sharpe, H. A. Spann, Luther Smith, and J. D. Farr. The dinner was most excellently served and everybody went away filled to overflowing with wisdom and meat. 1 At a meeting of the patrons of Palmetto Institute last Saturday, Mrs. Alice Sawyer was elected as sistant teacher, and a committee was J appointed consisting of the following persons: M.

H. Gantt, sweetly fell asleep in the arms of Jesus, and ber gentle spirit was wafted upon the wings of angels into the eternal rest which remaineth to the people of God on July 30,1896, in the 33d year of her age, after a short illness on child bed. She was a consistent member of the Graniteville Baptist church, in which she adorned the doctrines an teachings of her Lord and Master, letting her light so shine that others seeing her good works were constrained to to follow her precept and example. Following the golden commandment of doing unto others as she would have others do unto her, she won the love, confidence and esteem of all with whom she came in contact, and had a large circle of warm, devoted friends who weep over the grave of the departed one aQ<* sympathize with the husband and three little children who are left in sorrow and mourning The State Fair. We are in receipt of the premium list of the twenty-eighth annual fain of the State Agricultural and Mechanical Society of South Carolina. The premiums are well worth contending for and we trust that our people will begin at once the preparation of articles for exhibit. This is a farmers institution and they certainly should take a great interest in the success of the fair. OBITUARY. Nicholas Harper, infant son of Dr. and Mrs. B. S.

Dear Sir:?Replying to your letter of the 2nd instant asking for my ruling as to whether there is a vacancy as to the Democratic nominee to fill the remainder of your term as a member of the Fifty Fourth Congress, I beg to state that my ruling is that there is no vacancy and that you are the nominee for the place by reason of your election by the primary of 1894. This ruling however, is subject to protest and in case any objection is made the matter will be submitted to the State Executive Committee to be settled. Unless such protest is made the County Executive Committee should not hold an election for the place and no provision should be made in preparing the tickets for putting in a candidates name for the Fity Fourth Congress.
