Billy's Budget.
To the Editor of the Dispatch:
Tb<ej mail boxes have come and
already more patrons are being
served and getting their mail nearby.
J volume of mail matter continues
crease and we have been reliably
med the business done on thi.3
exceeds that done on either of
three routes emanating from
h. This speaks well for our
ce here when we take in the
rai surroundings. One of the
h routes has been in operation
w
for about three years, if I mistake
not, aDd ibis one took effect April
2d, 1903 Our people are an appreciative
people and a reading people.
Yesterday was Ascension day and
a; goodly number of young folks and
old ones met at the John J. Smith
old mill pond and etjiyed the day
with a picnic, boat-riding, music,
courting, etc. The day dawned
bright and no fleetiDg clouds obscured
the sky and the sun smiled
down upon a crowd of gay young
lovers, who, in the vision of tbeir
youthful fancy, seemed happier tban
the bright "Alay day of unclouded
felicity. Here and yonder could be
seen little groups of 2's and JV,
sometimes less and sometimes more,
who were possessed with a novelty cf
feeling that caused something to
glow in their youthful miDds that
Had a bewildering and bewitching
cffoni. Iinr.n their facilities. Here
fhey sat and stood by the rippling
waters beneath whose waves swam
the finDy creation and chatted of
things only known by themselves,
while the tiny minnow played upon
the bosom of the crystal waters.
Soon these youthful dreamers will
awaken to the realities of a married
iife. (?) And realize that life is real
and life is earnest.
The annual picnic, the occasion of
Children's day, at Red Bank, will
come off this season on Saturday before
the first Sunday in June. The
big hearted, whole gouled Superintendent,
T. Hayne Williams, ask me
to say that the public is cordially
invited to be present. The Sunday
Ecbool will have exercises in declamation,
songs, etc. There will be
some cool drinks and plenty fo eat?
But you carry your basket well
filled. Billy Felix.

The readers of this paper will be
please to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that sciecce has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure
is the only positive care known to
the medical fraternity. Catarrh being
a constitutional disease, reqaires
a constitutional treatment. Hall's
Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting
directly upon the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system, thereby
destroying the foundation of the disease,
and giving the patient Strd&glh
by building np the constitution and
assistiog nature in doing its work
The proprietors have so much faith
in its curative powers, that they offer
One Hundred Dollars for any case
that it tails to cure. Send for list of
testimonials.

Geo. Bell Tiznmerman,
Candidate for Solicitor of 5th Circuit.
"What an Edgefield paper says:
The readers of The News this week
have Captain George Boll Timmerman
as the first and only candidate
who asks for your suffrage as a candidate
for Solicitor of the Fifth
Judicial circuit to succeed Solicitor
Thurmond, who is not a candidate
for re-election. He is an old Edgefield
county boy, born and raised
here, and he is running unopposed
from Lexington county, which has
never had a Solicitor, but has helped
to elect Edgefield men for 32 years.
He is a eon of that good old Confederate
soldier, Dr. W. H. Timmerman.
He has had experience with the Solicitors
work, having acted in that
capacity at five terms of the court
while the present Solicitor was unwell,
for which he received no compensation.
He is capable in every
way of making the district a good
solicitor, and his habits are the best
and he can be depended upon at all
times to be at his post and do his j
duty. He asks for your support and |
promisee: "An honorable campaign !
and a faithful and fearless discharge !
of the duties of Solicitor if elected.7' j

Klondike's Letter.
To the Editor of the Dispatch:
Yes, this is fishing time now and !
we have wondered why the Editor j
8nd Uncle Jake have not been on the
JSdisto. Some one suggests that Klondike's
big eel has scared them j
away. Now let me suggest that if
the Editor will bring "BillieV long
handle squash to put bait in and
grease his hand with combustible
molapges, and learn to pronounce all
tbe Russian names foUDd in tbe new*,
papers and bring along Editor Bayly's
bottle that be tries to treat preachers
out of, be need fear no barm from my I
fish.? [No! Brother Klondike, you
are entirely out of it. But like tbe
once entrappe d bird, scared of the
loose leathers around, so the fi?h
scales have driven us away to other
waters where tbe relished j*ck, crispy
trout and fat mollies await our tackle
We never get bait out of a bottle and
catch fish out of tin cans.?Ed. Dispatch

The Free BridgeTo
the Editor of the Di^micb:
J
You sav you believe the late
County Convention made a crave I
blunder in mixing politics acd free
bridges, &2. Possibly you are right, j
but we have waited in deep silence
to see if our brothers in arms aDd
office would rescue us, or help us
until we have become faint heart* d
and thought we had better turn cur
cry in another direction and we know
of no more just way than let the
qualified electors say whether or not,
they are willing to help their neighbors
across the river by building a
free bridge across Saluda. Now, Mr.
Editor, your solution jaat meets our
demand. Let the County Commissioners
proceed at once to erect the
bridge and see then if some one else
won't have to do the kicking not me.
We also feel it a duty long neglected
by the people of Lexington and Richland
counties to build a free bridge
across Ccr^sree river. We help to
bridge smail streams, wLy not large
OD63. I feel it is our duty to help
build these bridges by taxation, 3nd
the sooner we can get our miDds
made up to help, the sweeter our
sleep will be. G. M. Adams,
