Reference is asked to the card of W. Boyd Evans, candidate for Railroad Commissioner.

Elected Treasurer. We notice that Mr. Harry GocdiDg, sod of Mr. W. B. Gooding, of Charlotte, N. C., has been elected Treasurer cf Cherokee county, in this State.

C., Aug, 29, 1902. Appealing to Tillman. Frantic Efforts Being Made to Get the Senator to Help the Weak Men, But He Declines to Respond. Since the primary last week frantic appeals have been made to Senator Tillman by panicky candidates. They wish to be saved from defeat if it can possibly be done. They are now willling to make any pledges of loyalty and support to Tillman. But the senator is just a little too astute. He has been in politics too loDg to risk his popularity by attempting at the last moment to overcome a tremendous lead. Then, it is doubtful if the senator really cares to go to the rescue. He may fear that his friends, made too powerful, will attempt to undermine his castle. Then, again, so far as the gubernatorial contest is concerned, it is creditably reported that the senator weeks ago said how the wind was blowing and picked Heyward as the winner. The betting men are offering big odds on the leader in this race. A lead of 18,000 votes has never been overcome in the history of South Carolina primaries and it probably never will. A Card. To the People of Lexington county, with a heart filled with gratitude, I deBire to express my high appreciation of the liberal vote that my follow countrymen gave me in the recent primary election ana for the uniform consideration and kindness which I received at their hands during my canvass, and I hope to be able in the future to do some honorable and valuable service for the citizens of the county that has so honored and trusted me bb a further evidence of my enduring gratitude and of my interest in all that pertains to the welfare of Lexington county and the State of South Carolina. John Bell Towill. Batesburg, S. C. Hotice. The Board of Registration for Lexington county will meet at the Court House on Wednesday, September 10th, for the purpose of making up the books for the new precints, lately established, namely: Pelion, Edmund, Crouts' Store and Lairds Mill. Parties wishing to be registered at these places will either appear in person or send in their names on that day. Sam J. Leaphart, Chairman ?>oard. A Card. To my Fellow-citizens of Lexington county: Being a new man, almost a stranger to a majority of my people in my county, I take this method of showing to them my appreciation for the complimentary vote which I received from their hands for County Commissioner from the Fork. To my distinguished competitors I entertain the kindest feeling and as to their race have only to say. "May the most worthy win." I do herby extend to my supporters my heartfelt thanks for their warm and loyal support Acain thanking mv friends for their ?r*?? o kindness and loyalty, I am very truly yours, B. B. Hiller. Sept. 2,1902 Family Reunion. At Bethlehem church. Black creek, Mrs. Mary Magdalean Smith, wife of George Smith, deceased, celebrated her 85th birthday. On Wednesday, August 13, 1902, at 10 o'clock the family and all connections assembled at the church and after singing some sweet songs, arrangements were made to get the number of children, grand children, and great great grand children. m n o VvA^n in fViici A m A 10 1UC1C wao UJiU ILL LlllO UUUiC JL *d children, 9 living and 3 dead; 92 grand children living, 31 dead; 124 great grand children living, 34 dead: 2 great great grand children. The offspring from this family is 215, and those who married into the family number 65. This was the 85th birthday of our dear grand mother. After the work was about complete dinner was announced. For one hour and ahalf everybody drew near the table, with well filled baskets, for their dear old mother. The pastor being present asked the blessing, then the good mother said, come children, grand children, great grand children, and great great grand children, snd friends and eDjoy these bounties with me. So there was a good time. At 2 o'clock everybody returned back to the church, pastor A. K. Taylor, took the stand, hymn Nearer My God to Thee was sang with feeling; prayer by brother Jas. Smith, then scripture reading from 22d Paalmp, then after some appropriate words to one and all, then he reminded the young people of their grand mother's girlhood days and also told tbem to be likeher. Then it was the desire of one and all to have a greeting handshake, so from the oldest down to the little babes all greeted grand ma. Thus ended this happy day. Singing "Praise God from Whom all Blessings Flow." Benediction by the pastor. A Card. TotheYotersof Lexington County: No doubt that maDy of my friends observed that I was absent from some of the recent campaign meetings. This was due in part to sickness and death in my family and partly to my being hurt by a runaway team, the effects of which I am ? y ? not yet fully recovered from. Taking this in consideration and the fact that the time is so very short until the second election, I . doubt very much that I shall be able to canvass the county as I would like to, still I hope to be able to receive such consideration as you, my fellow citizens, , may see fit to give me. If elected County Supervisor I shall be free to j discharge my duty as I see fit. Thanking one and all for the handsome vote given me in the recent election and for their further support, I am your friend, Geo. A. Shealy.
