The Lexington Dispatch G. M. HARMAX. Editor and Publisher. LEXINGTON, S. C., Wednesday. October 30. 1901. We cannot let the opportunity go by vritbout saying something commendatory for the management of the late County Fair;i>ecause all that can be said in its praise is well de served. The concensus of opinion i? that it is the best fair ever held. The exhibits in all the departments, except horses, household and needle and fancy work, were more numerous and of superior specimens. The field crop exhibits were exceptionally fine and would have done credit to our State Fair had there been no other exhibit there. Beside the fair proper the attractions for the amusements of the visitors added a great deal to make the fair attractive and entertaining The high wire riding by the Baums was apparently a daring and perilous undertaking and excited the wonder and won the plaudits of the onlooker. The ocean wave and Ferris wheel contributed their share toward the amusement of the crowds and were liberally patronized, as * ? nr?! were the other tented snows, ine greasy pig could not be caught, ex cept by those connected with the game. Wild Hannah, who was alleged to have been captured in the Philip pine island after a desperate struggle, excited the curiosity of many and then their chagrin. Tbe Gipsy fortune teller told married men that they were single and the single men they were married; and girls that a certain man of such and such color of hair, and eyes, etc., was dead gone on them. All Qf these were new features and the people seemed to eDjoy them. The only draw back to the full en * * I** /^not JO^OICDI WdS liio uuo< from the arena, which at times was unbearable, bat we have the ass.ur ance of the management that this will be remedied by the time of the next fair and that the grounds will be otherwise improved. We are glad to state that the fair 'was a big success in every respect and the management deserve the thanks of the entire county for their untiring efforts to give visitors the full value for their money and the fairness and impartiality in the con duct of the fair. Friday was Veteran's day as well as Farmers', and a large number of "Jhonnie Rebs" and "One Gallus Bjys" gathered to et jDy themselves as their tastes suggested. Col. U. R Brooks, one of the most enthusiastic and unreconstructed veterans in the State, came over from Columbia to be with the boys who wore the gray, aDd he was the bap piest boy among tbem. Mr. w. vv. Lumpkin?, of Columbia, was the orator of the day and was introduced by Col. Brook?, in a few well chosen remarks. Mr. Lumpkins is aa elo quent, graceful and fluent speaker and held his audience spellbound He was given close attention from the beginning to the end of his address the leading thought of which was the necessity of building and maintaining a home for tho old and decrepit Confederate soldier. He contended in a masterly effort that it was the duty of the State of South Carolina to provide a place for the old soldiers who are- homeless and friendless where their needs could be supplied and where they could spend the declining years in peace and free k from want. He did not want the pension appropriation decreased to those who have loved ones and friends to take care of them but to continue to draw their portion tobelp support them as they passed dowD the hill of time to rest under the shade on the other side. In well rounded periods be closed after thanking'the Irene Brass BaDd for the delightful music furnished for the occasion. Mr. Hunnicutt, Editor of The Southern Cultivator of Atlanta, Ga , made one cf the best agricultural addresses that we have ever listened to It was plain, practical and wholesome advice to farmers as to the best modes of cultivating the soil so as to produce the best results. It would be folly for us to attempt to fellow him in our limited space and we shall Dot attempt to do so. We regret that every farmer in the county did not hear bim, and trust that those who did will follow his advice learned from practical experience on the farm in actual work and observation. Mr. H. C. Paulling of St. Matthews, an expert, was judge of the live stock department aDd bis impartiality iD awarding the premiums to the successful competitors gave general satisfaction. He is a pleasant and t it ? J ? i. j genial gentleman auu our pcupic | were pleased to meet him and make his acquaintance. The second section of Buffalo Bill's Wild "West Show was wrecked eighty miles from Danville, Va , on October 29th. One hundred and ten riDg horses, including Colonel Cody's favorite mount, were killed. No persons were hurt. In a race riot at Live Ork church, Louisania, nine negroes and two whites were killed and many negroes were wounded. The negroes are panic stricken and are fleeing the country. * The State Fair is now under full ! headway aod a large number of peo- j pie from this county are in attend- i ance upon it. The Northbound ! train on the Southern yesterday ! afternoon was uncomfortably crowd- J wiaieora Thnae whn return- I OU nivu Iiw<?u?w? >? - ? ed from Columbia report haviDg had a fine time. The fairness and justice with which Admiral Dewey has presided over the court of inquiry has incurred for bim the ill will of some of the enetnie3 of Admiral Schley and in conse- i quence they have been free iu tbtir criticisms of him and the other members of the court. Capt. W. K. Backman, a gallant artillery officer in the Confederate war, died at his home in Columbia Tuesday morning. j I Once a^aiu and lor the last time wp remind the voters of the Seventh Distiiet, especially those of L< X'tig- ! ton county, that the election for Consressmau will take place on next Tuesday, the f>;h of November, and that it is the duty of every Democrat to ?o to the polls on that day and vote for the nominee of the party. T ? -1 1? 1 ' ? i ?. Alti'wAno fA AC 16 DOC OHiy ineu" uuiy aBuu?sus nu do so, but as men who have solemnly sworn to do so. Before depositing his ballot in the Democratic primary each elector voluntarily took aD oath that he would support the nominee of the party?that is the candidate who received a maj irity of the votes polled in the primary, whether the successful candidate was tbe% in dividual choice of the affiant or not. This being true it follows that every person who voted in the last primary is under a moral, if Dot legal obligation to support the cho'ce of the party in the general election. Patriosism would also suggest that each Democrat go to the polls on the 5;b, and support the nominee of the party. It is a well known fact that the seat of the late Dr. Stokes is content~ * ? _? il ed by a negro JLtepuoncan amo iue death of Dr. Stokes by no means end3 that contest, and while the coming election may perhaps have no legal bearing upon that ontest, yet a large Democratic vote would doubtless a have poweiful influence in deciding that election according to the will of the people as expressed through the ballot box. So that every consideration should induce the voters to turn ?ut and give the nominee the largest vote ever polled in the District. Barn urn's / Monkeys "All well?all happy?lots of fun". That is the regular report from the monkey cage cf Barnum's Circus ever since the keepers began closing the monkeys with Scott's Emulsion. Consumption was carrying off two thirds of them every year and the circus had to buy new ones. One day a keeper accidentally broke a bottle of Scott'Emulsion near the monkey cage and the monkeys eagerly O * O - lapped it lip from the door. This suggested the idea that i; might do them good. Sincethen the monkeys have received regular doses and the keepers report very few deaths from consumption. Of course* its cheaper to buy Scott's Emulsion than new monkeys?and that suits the circus men. Consumption^ in monkeys and in man is the same disease.

To the Editor of the Dispatch: If you will allow me a little space in your vuluable paper this week I will give your readers a little news from Arkansas. We have had seme good rains at last but too late to benefit us any, not even our turnip crops. We Lave hsd frost though Qot heavy enough to damage our pea crop. The grass wo.rm has almost ruined our pastures, and in CalhouD county they are destroying even thing greeD, sorghum and all. We are having very little sickness, nothing of a serious nature, no epidemic. Mad dogs are having their day, though we have heard of no one's beiog bitten. The MormoD elders are among us and they go two together like the eaily cisciples did, and they don't seem to mind harsh treatment, and that is just what they receive here. They are driven cut of houses almost like dogs; still they go on canvassing as if nothing had happened. Mormonism is going to give our nation a great deal of trouble sometime, snd I fear that the trouble will come a little too soon for some of us. Our Methodist brethren here quarrel aLd disagreed and several oftheii churches have nearly gone to pieces, and the Baptist are doing no better. The Uuiversalist seem to be appar ently ind.fferent, and, of course the Mormons are making some headway, doubtless. Our public schools have nearly all closed for this year. We hardly ever have a winter term, except in the towns.We pay our taxes in the winter and our Sheriff is our collector. Hurrah for Leve of Lexington count)! Old Lexington is coming to the froit, sure enough. It makes me giad all over to bear sucb news I wab raised on North Edisto river and love to tbiDk of the good old home of the past. J. P. Simons.
