The Campaigners on the Hounds. 5
The publisher of the Dispatch is j
; on the chase of the "Almighty Dol- .
lar," looking up delinquents in every
nook and corner of the county. He
finds this work anything but pleasant
taking long drives with the ther- j
mometer at the tale end of the
nineties and the rays of "Old Sol" .
beating pittilessly upon his devoted
head is very trying, and more
than once along the long,
tiresome and lonely journey he
was impressed with the fact that
"Jordon was a hard road to travel,"
through this wilderness of woe. He
was bouyed up, however, with the
thought of the pleasant associations,
comfortable homes and downy j
couch which awaited him in the
hospitable home of some kind friend, .
when the sun goes to sleep behind
the Western hills, and in this com*
1
forting and consoling thought he has
never been disappointed.
He is making the rounds with the
three gentlemen who are now upon
the mourner's bench anxiously awaiting
the verdict of the people to
put on the Senatorial toga.
The first place where the campaigners
arrived at was at Mr. C. R.
Rish's where the speaking was advertised
to take place. The exercises
of the day were opened by
Capt. J. F. Lyles, who gracefully
presided over the meeting and introduced
the speakers to an audience
of about one hundred voters and a
number of ladies and children. Dr.
Crosson was the first candidate to
appear before the people of Black
Creek township and entertained the
audience with his views. He was
followed by Dr. W. T. Brooker, also
a candidate for Senator in a well
timed and instructive address. Col.
Weslev Harper. tha silver toncued
orator of Savannahunt branch, pre- 1
sented his claims for a seat in the
upper branch of the General Assem- *
bly and fold why he should be sent
there to represent the farmers.
After the candidates for the Senate
were through speakiDg, Dr. J. "VYm.
Stokes, our immediate representative
in Congress, was introducted and
made a ringing speech on national
issues and rendered an account of *
his stewardship, showing that he 1
had been faithful to his promises and
watchful over the interest of his ?
constituents. r
Mr. Rish had prepared a splendid i
baibecue dinner which was eDjoyed c
by all present. The festivities of c
the day were appropriately closed by f
the young people "tipping the light r
fantastic toe," until the cow bells a
came tinkling home.
The next place of the campaigners
were to speak was at Gaston. At
this place the largest number of j.
voters greeted the candidates, there
being between two and three hun- ,

Lexington's gifted youDg sod, was ^
the master of ceremonies and right
royally did he perform his duties to ^
the satisfaction of ail. Dr. Brooker
was the first to speak at this place,
and he told the people how a con- ^
siderable sum could be saved to
those who had children to send to c
school in the purchase of school fc
books by the enactment of a law v
providing for the purchase of ^
school books by the county and sold ^
to children at cost. Dr. Crosson e
followed in an able address in which d
he clearly outlined his policy and his ^
position on matters of public inter- c
est. His speech was very effective o
and well received. Colonel Wesley ^
Harsey was the last speaker and the
audience was greatly amused at his e
droll sayings and amusiDg anacdotes. o
After the feast of reason and the
flow of wit, dinner was announced ?
11
and the assembled multitude refresh- ^
ed the inner man at the well ladened h
table of barbecued meats and re- r(
freshments, prepared under the ^
supervision of Mr. Goodwin. a
Last Saturday the campaigners 1
arrived at the progressive and growiDg
little city on the western banks I ^
ol tne uongaree, Known as lorooK- e
land. Such has been the industry v,
and prosperity of this thriving little a
city that it has won the envy and E
excited the jealousy of Columbia, I ?
who, according to one of her alder- j d
men and the Columbia State, want j
to smother the enterprise of Brook- j
land. The merchants and denizens j ^
of this place were so busy that it | ]?
was hard to get a crowd together to j ii
hear the speakers and it was not ' d
until three o'clock in the afternoon a f
b
sufficient number cf persons assem- j(
bled for the speaking to commence, b
The people at this place seemed to b
be lukewarm concerning the result ^
of the Senatorial race and are conse- j f.
quently not taking much stock in it. I 1
Capt. Bowersox, presided over the j
meeting and introduced the speakers. ! j
Dr. Crosson was the lirst speaker, j j
Dr. Brooker was next and Colonel ; s
Harsey the third and last. I 0
This meeting ended the last of the
series of meetings for last week, and
that night we returned home.
The meetings for this week will

Judge Buchanan's Address
The address of Judge 0. W. !
3uchanan in the court house last j
Sunday morning befere Dixie Lodge, {
*o. 52, LOO F, and a large re- j
ined and intelligent audience, was j
ndeed a rare literary treat of en :
musual and attractive merit.
The address was preceded by the
eading of the Sciipiures, followed J
ay prayer and the singing of the ode. !
The address was elegant in mat- J
;er and delivered with spirit and ani- j
nation. It was replete with thought ,
md ideas and was full of worldly j
wisdom. Throughout the whole ad j
Hress there was a wholesome regard j
ror sacred things which were treated j
ivith that reverence and respect so j
nnusual in these days. Judge Buch- J
man is a most interesting talker in j
public at all times and as a declaimer
ne has few equals. Unaffected and
natural his clear, rich voice was at its j
best and every word was heard all |
ever the court room. The address j
was of a sensible length for the oc- !
casion and took up some thirty-five
minutes in its delivery. At its termination
every one regretted he
could not hear him longer. It was
so captivating, so novel and so original
that the time taken seemed but a
few moments. It was of a most
bappy length. His magnetic delivery
held the undivided attention of a
most intelligent audience. The
3peaker is a man of unusual oratorical
powers being graceful in gesture
md charming in diction.
He began by saying some words
cf courtesy to his audience and passing
up to the merits of his theme?
3uty of Odd Fellows and their reation
to society?he entered at once
:>n bis subject, lie quoted sir William
Hamilton's expression that
'there is nothing great in man but
nind." From this he deduced from
;he superiority of man the great responsibility
for his acts and the
proper use of his opportunities.
With this great superiority comes
;he great duty of responsibility not
inly for the exercise of his intellect
done, but for a refined exercise of
;he feelings and instincts of com- non
manhood and a kind and gener>us
citizenship. He dwelt at length
jpon the benefits mankind most desire
from an institution which so
lelps and develops a proper, just and
jroadened and chritabie view of life.
Che encouragement of a religious
ipirit not of any particular denomi- :
lation or creed, but of all creeds
ecognizing the common fatherhood
>f God, was discussed. The Order ,
lid not discriminate against any
aith nor did it intermeddle in this
natter at all further than to encourige
the observance of common prin:iples
upon which ail denominations
ire founded. It gave great encourigement
to the work of all churches
n that it taught by wholesome les- :
ons the principles inculcated in the
zolden Rule. The asperities of life !
eere calmed, cooled and tempered 1
>y the lessons taught in the Lodge
oom. There was a recognition of 1
he common lot of men and of the
leed to moderate the sorrows and
oisfortunes of suffering humanity,
ill were upon a level in the Lodge <
oom. The greatest and humblest
onsidered it a privilege to meet their ,
irothers in the Lodge room and there
?as a tie that bound all good Odd
bellows to each other. It was an
bligation to do good and was most
onorable. The good man ccnud- ]
red bis obligation sacred. The Orler
practiced relief to all distressed
irothers, aided the widow and the
rphan and buried the dead. In J
onclusion he spoke to the members c
f the immediate Lodge, (Dixie, No. ]
12,) and wished them and all other
mothers, collectively and personally, *
ach and every one of them, the benfits
of a good life and the blessings
f heaven.
After the usual ode was sung and
onors were given, the audience was
ivited to join in ihe doxology which
ras done with a will. The Odd E
Yllows repaired to their Lodge ?
oom and the audience dispersed, t
Ivery one agreed a most delightful
ime had been enjoyed. It will be
n occasion long to be remembered. *
'he members of Dixie Lodge feel c
bat their cause has been advanced i
y the address and are justly proud g
f their Order. Judge Buchanan
xpressed himself as greatly pleased 6
rith his brothers of Dixie Lodge. 1
nd finir? hp had npvpr addrpssed a 1
lore intelligent assembly of pretty j
omen and brave men than were j
athered in the court house on Sun- : !
ay.

There is more Catarrh in this secion
of the country than all other j ^
iseases put together, and until the- ! 4
Lst few years was supposed to be | j
icurable. For a great many years j
octors pronounced it a local disease, ! 1
nd prescribed local remedies, and j ry
constantly failing to cure with | j
ical treatment, pronounced itincura- j j
le. Science has proven catarrh to j
e a constitutional disease and there- j
ire requires constitutional treat *
lent. Hall's Catarrh Cure, manu- i a
ictured by F. J. Cheney A Co., !
'oledo, Ohio, is the only constitu- j
ional cure on the market. It is i
tiken internally in doses from 10 i
rops to a teaspoonful. It acts j
irectly on the blood and mucous j
urfaces of the system. They offer ;

TWO MISTAKES.
There are
^ivc a.t^nyou
into
consumption almost before you are aware
of it; the other is when the trouble is at
last discovered and fully realized to give
up hope too soon.
Begin with these bronchial and throat
ailments the instant they appear ; never
' 1,1 1 - ? ro m i
Wall liu 10 - morrow. i uc hkui
t iken now may save mouths of severe illness.
On the other hand if the illness has
already come upon you; and you find yourself
weakened, wasted and discouraged, do
not lose hope. There is a medicine that will
certainly restore you to health and strength.
" My boy was in ft very bad way when I commenced
to give him Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery," writes J. \V. Price, Esq., of Ozark,
Monroe Co.. Ohio, in a recent letter to Dr. R. V.
Pierce of Buffalo. ?C. Y. " The doctors claimed
he had consumption and we doctored with them
until he was past walking. After using five bottles
of the ' Discovery' he is now all right. It
has been ten months since he stopped taking
your medicine and he is still in good health. We
are %-ery thankful to you for saving our sou."
Hundreds of similar cases are described
in one chapter of Dr. Pierce's great thousand-page
illustrated book The People's
Common Sense Medical Adviser which will
be sent free for the bare cost of mailing, 21
one-cent stamps. It is a veritable family
library in one volume;?the fruit of Dr.
Pierce's life-long experience with the severest
types of obstinate chronic diseases.
Any one may write to him for advice; which
will be sent in a plain sealed envelope,
free of charge.

Take an Interest in Fruit Growing
and Give Variety to Life and
Labor.
When a tree does not bear good
fruit, or none at all, it is hewn
down. We haven't yet been hewn
dowD, but, to the contrary, more of
our trees are bearing good fruit than
ever. 20,000 patrons testify to this
annually. It's a fact that there are
all sorts of everything; so of fruit
trees; ours bear good fruit true to
name. Our growth for over 30
years is a positive proof. Fruits for
all sections. Five varieties of Japan
plums, ripening in succession for
nearly two months without a break.
Twelve varieties of peaches, ripening
in succession from June till frost
without a break; and so of apples,
etc. Free catalogue and pamphlet
of 40 pages on "How to Plant and
Cultivate an Orchard" give particulars.
