Through the County.
My father, on account of the pressure
of other business which
demanded his individual attention,

on his rounds in the Fork, sent this
writer to represent the Dispatch and
to hunt up delinquents.
Tuesday morning, in company
with Mr. J. Weir Addy, who was
duly deputized by the Auditor, I left
the staid old town of 'Lexington for
the rich hills and fertile bottoms of
that country known in song and
history as the "Dutch Fork"' of Lexington
county, the inhabitants of
which are worthy representatives of
a noble ancestry. Without reflecting
upon the other sections of the county,
it is my opinion that the people of
that section are industrious, progressive
and well-to-do, and that it
embraces some of as rich and fertile
lauds as can be found in any other section
of the State. At nightfall we
arrived at the hospitable and pleas

Mr. Haltiwanger has an interesting
family and is a generous and thoughtful
host.
We spent Wednesday Dight with
Mr. James B. Addy, who unstinted in
his attention to us and he left nothing
undone that would contribute to
our comfort and pleasure. He is
one of the most ardent Alliancemen
in the county and an all round good
fellow.
Thursday night found U3 comfortably
housed beneath the hospitable
roof of Mr. J. E. Fulmer. he has a
pretty home and is surrounded with
peace and plenty. Fortune is certainly
smiling on him as a reward of
his thrift and industry.
One of the Fork's best and most
prosperous citizens is Elias Metz,
where we put up Friday night. We
always found a hearty welcome there

the rule.

the counters of the Bazaar, where

Mr. E. Sease who resided on Little
Hollow Creek, after suffering for several
months with heart trouble, peacefully
and calmly passed from this
transitory life and entered that rest
which remainetb for the people of
God at 1 o'clock Thursday last in the
7oth year of his age. In early life he
gave his heart to the Master and
picking up his cross he humbly followed
in the footsteps of Jesus,
and striving to live up to the golden
rule of doing unto others as he would

this he lived at peace with God and
man and won the esteem, respect
and love of a large circle of relatives j
and friends. For many years he
was a faithful officer of Little Hollow
Creek church and discharged his '
duties with marked ability. As a
citizeD, he was law abiding and patriotic;
as a neighbor was kind
hearted in whom the suffering and
afflicted found a friend. In the discharge
of his family duties he was
ever thoughtful of the comfort and
happiness of those who were dependent
upon him. Truly a good man
has passed from this stage of action
! and has gone to receive and enjoy

To the Editor of the Dispatch:
Doling the Christmas holidays the j
young people of this part of the j
county, and everybody <lse, enjoyed f
themselves very much.
The Christmas tree given by the
St. Andrew's Sunday school was a
success in every particular. Every
scholar got a present. With Mr. J
W. Bouknight, as organist, the choir
sang a number of beautiful and appropriate
pieces. Addresses were
made by Hon. C. M. Efird, of Lexington,
C. H., and Prof. Archer, of
Irmo.
i
During Christmas week most do- |
lighlful parties were given at the |
hospitable home of Mrs. S. G. Huff
man and Mr. A. S. Nuuainaker. Last j
Tuesday evening another party was
given at the cherry home of Mr.
Ambrose M. Wingard. There was
a host of visitors here during Christmas
week.
Miss Nola Haltiwanger, of Lexington,
spent several days with her parents,
Mr. and Mrs. Isaiah Haltiwanger.
Messrs. Benjamin Nunamaker and
Curtis Speuce, of Newberry, spent
the week visiting friends and rela
tives.
Miss Minnie Black, of Columbia,
spent a day or so with Miss Ella
Huffman.
Miss Daisy Wright, of Columbia,
visited her grandmother, Mrs. Sallie
Huffmau.
Mr. Edgar Clark, of Fairfield, and
Mrs. John Swygert and daughter,
Miss Annie, visited the family of
Mr. A. S. Nunamaker.
Mrs. Maiiah Nunamaker, of Selwood,
spent several days in the
neighborhood with friends and relatives.
Mr. Charlie Huffman, a student of
Newoerry College, spent the week
with his parents, Mr. and Mrs.
Joseph Huffman.
Miss Nannie and Miss Minnie Nunamaker,
of Columbia, spent the
Christmas holidays with their parents.
Mr. G. F. Younginer visited his
brother, Mr. T. P. Younginer, of
Fairfield.
Miss Mamie Lietzsey visited
friends in Lexington and her brother,
Mr. Hugh Lietzsey, spent the week
with relatives in Newberry county.
Miss Olive Haltiwanger, principal
of Shady Grove Academy, spent
Christmas week with her parents.
Mr. William Smith, of Congaree,
was among the visitors here Christ
mas week.
Masters Holmes Huffman, of Congaree,
and Carl Huffman, and Joseph
Wright, of Columbia, visited Mrs.
Sallie Huffman.
Mr. S. P. Younginer has returned
from a business trip to Florida and
Georgia.
If every farmer in South Carolina,
would emulate the example of Mr.
Joseph Huffman, Sr., it would make
but little difference about the low
price of cotton. He has corn two or
three years old and will make enough
meat this year to do him two years.
He does not believe in having his
corn crib and meat house in the West.
His idea is to raise his own meat and
bread and make cotton a surplus
crop. The result is he has plenty of
the necessaries of life for himself and
his fat and sleek mules, horses and
cows.
Mr. J. W. Younginer will move
his saw mill in a few days from
Richland county over in the Dutch
Fork where he will saw for the public.
The half dozen or more "Dutch
dirt ovens" in this section are curiosities
to your correspondent, who never
saw anything of the kind before. I
am told that a whole week's cooking
can be done in one of these ovens at
one time.
Mr. Joe Mc-etze has recently bought
land near the State farm aad has
already moved to it.
Mr. Haltiwanger has rented the
house recently occupied by Mr. W.
W. Spence who has moved to Newberry.
Mr. Dock Ellisor has moved
to the John Lorick place.
Messrs. Thos. A Cbaffin and J. B.
KobinsoD, spent Sunday in Columbia.
There is evidently some special
attraction over on that side of the
river.
Mr. Spires from near Lexington,
moved into the house formerly occupied
by Mr. Haltiwanger.
Mr. Arthur Meetze moved into his
new dwelling one day last week.
Messrs. Frank Leitzsey and Thos.
Younginer, killed a sixteen pound,
wild cat during Christmas week.
Mr. J. M. Geiger, of New Brookland,
was buried at the Nate's bury!
ing ground near St. Andrew's church
j o o
week before last. His death was
I caused from paralysis. He was
| eighty odd years old and leaves a
| wife and several children to mourn
their loss.
AYe had the pleasure a few days
; age of walking over the Lexington
State farm, which is ably superintended
by Mr. Sam Miller, a native |
of Abbeville county. The lands have |
| been very much improved under Mr. j
I Miller's management. We never j
j saw better terraced lands anywhere, j
j He made a splendid crop last year j
| and is preparing to make another
good crop this year.

Sandy Hun Cotton Growers.
To the Editor cf tbe Disp^tcl;:
TLe cotton growers of Sun.lv Run
o *
township met at Culler's school house,
Saturday, January S, and organized
by electing Dr. "\V. T. Brooker, President
and X. B. Wanurwaker Secretary.
A permanent organization was
effected, as follows: lion. W. T.
Brooker, President: Capr. J. C. I.
Wannamaker and K. J. l??x)f, Vice
Presidents: X. B. Wannamaker, Secretary.
Dtlegates to the County
Convention were th cted as follows:
Dr. W. T. Brooker, X. B. "Wannamaker
and W. H. Wannamaker; al- j
ternates, M?j H. J. Seiblep, John C.
Muller and J. W. Criin. The following
committee was appointed to
draft a constitution for the government
of the Association: X. 13. "\Vannamaker,
John C. Muller and J. W.
Crim. The following resolutions introduced
by X. 13. Wanuamaker were
adopted with out a dissenting vote:
Resolved, That it is the deliberate
judgment of this meeting of the
cotton growers of Sandy Run township
that the lien law should be
blotted from the statute books of
South Carolina now and forever.
2, That said lien law is the most
pernicious, baneful and foolhardy law
ever placed upon the statute books of
this commonwealth.
3, That we believe that there
should be coucert of action along
this line by the law making bodies of
every State and Territory whose
principal money crop is cotton.
4, That we require our represenL
A- 1 __1 _ r IV. ? T
tauves iu uom uruucueo ui iuu
islature to labor for its speedy and
unconditional repeal.
5, That the privilege tax on fertilizers
should be reduced to a nominal
sum?an amount sufficient to pay the
expenses of au analysis and no more.
G, That while this reduction would
doubtless militate against the interest
of the A. and 51 College of the
State (the sole beneficiary of this tax)
its efficiency would not be materially
impaired thereby, and at any rate we
must be just before we arc generous.
The farmers are by no means the
only people who are to be benefited
by the A. and M. College, but theirs
is the exclusive privilege to paying
this tax.
7, That the euforced of
the cost of producing
quence upon the great cf^reciation
in the price, renders it imperative
that every element of cost possible
of elimination be sedulously weeded
cu'; and as commercial fertilizers is
an appreciable and necessary element
of cost, our Railroad Commissioners
should see to it that the rates charged
for hauling feitilizers for the ap.M-nnnliin
oooarm eVirmlrl lip GYP/I
jjl UUbUiL)^ OtttCUU WUUUiu mw m?vv?
with special reference to the diminished
returns from our principal crop.
8, That we give our hearty and
unequivocal endorsement to the anti
option bill introduced by our immediate
Representative in Congress,
Hon. J. Wm. Stokes, and now pending
before that body, and we trust
every effort will be put forth to expedite
its passage so that its benefits
may be secured to the cotton
growers at the earliest possible moment.
The Sandy Run Cotton Growers'
Protective Association then adjourned
subject to the call of President.
W. T. Brocker, President.
N. B. Wannamaker, Secretary.
During the pust two years, Mrs. J
W. Alexander, wife of the editor of
the Waynesboro, (Miss.) Times, has,
in a great many instances, relieved
her baby when in the first stages of
croup, by giving it Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy. She looks upon
this remedy as a household necessity
and believes that no better medicine
has ever been put in bottles. There
are many thousands of mothers in
this broad laud, who are of the same
opinion. It is the only remedy that
can always be depended upon as a
preventive and cure for croup. The
