In the death of Dr. W. H. Timmerman which, occurred at his home in Bate8burg on last Tuesday evening at 8 o'clock, South Carolina loses one of nature'9 noblemen; his wife a true and devoted husband; his children a fond and affectionate father. It was our good fortune to know him long and well, and we only knew him to esteem him more highly as the years passed by. Dr. Timmerman believed in the fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man. He believed that the man who scatters flowers in the pathway of his fellowmeD, who J lets into the dark places of life the sunshine of human sympathy and human happiness, is following in the footsteps of his Master. His cheerful, helpful life; his devotion to his wife and family and kindness to everybody will long linger as a fragrant memory in the home which his presence bright" "ened and which death has now dark. ened. Though he is gone his record has been made and will remain with us as a lasting treasure. His life was gentle, but like the still waters it wa9 deep. In his heart of hearts he carried those he loved, and his hand was never weary, his step never tailed in caring for and ministering to those who were in any way dependent upon him. The funeral services were held at his late residence in Batesburg at 5 o'clock on Wednesday afternoon, Revs. Hundley, Beasly and Turnipseed officiating, each paying a beautiful tribute to the memory of the deceased. The casket was covered with the most beautiful floral designs loving fingers ever wrought, all of which spoke of peace, purity and immortality. The music rendered was such as to soften all hearts and moisten all eyes. On Thursday morning the remains were carried to Johnston and from there to the old Timmerman burying ground about eight miles in the country, it being his desire to be buried in the community in which his life work had been spent. An unusual long procession followed the funeral car to the silent city. A short - service was held and the body low ered in the ground. May God's purest angels guard his slumbers. "How sweet a life was bis; how sweet a death; Living to wing with mirth the merry hours, 4 Or with his genial tales the heart to cheer; Dying, to leave a memory like the heath Of summer, full of sunshine and flowers, A grief and gladness in the atmosphere." Prom the beauty of his life may we all take an inspiration and go forth to live as he lived, so that when the summons comes we may say as did he, "All is well."

RUTLAN BA Some people are raising a great hue and cry because the executive committee saw fit to arrange for only nine campaign meetings. We fail to see the justness of such a kick. The committee left an "off day" between each campaign meeting and this gives all of the candidates an opportunity to go where they choose; and at the same time it gives those who desire an opportunity to furnish barbecues, and we feel sure that the candidates will vrisit nearly every cue in the countv. We believe that this is the ground upor^ which mo9t of the kicks are based. I| is hard to please all the people all the time, and we believe that the committee acted in good faith in arranging for only nine campaign meetings. "G. R. Rembert spoke." Thus The State reported the speech of Capt. George R. Rembert, a candidate for Solicitor of the fifth judicial circuit, comprising the counties of Richland and Kershaw, and then gave a good synopsis of the speeches of the i other candidates for the same office. The State is too good a newspaper? usually broadminded and inclined to be fair?to snub a capab'le candidate like Capt. Rembert. We regret that our neighbor, The Stat?, the great exponent of truth and right, is displaying such act9 of unfairness toward this particular candidate, who is, in every way, the peer of any man in the race. Capt. George ft. Rembert is a candidate for solicitor of the firth judicial circuit, embracing the counties of Richland and Kershaw. Four years ago Capt. Rembert wa9 in the race for solicitor when the counties of Edgefield, Saluda, Lexington, Richland and Kershaw, comprised the district and he received a very creditable vote indeed. He is a young man of recognized ability and is well qualfied for the duties of the position to which he aspires. The Dispatch would like to see Rembert elected solicitor. It is to be hoped that every road in the county will be put in firstclass condition before the winter season sets in. The national government is not going to take any foolishness; rmlpss the mads are worked some of the rural routea in this county is just as sure to be "cut out" as the sun shines. This would be a slam on the good citizenship of our county, and we believe that our people will see to it that the roads are kept up. It is dollars to doughnuts that Editor Gonzales, of the Columbia State, will receive an invitation to attend the inauguration exercises of the next President of the United States. Mr. Jas. A. Hoyt, of Columbia, was the first man in South Carolina to make a contribution to the .national democratic campaign fund. "They say" prohibition is not an issue. Maybe not, but a good many candidates like to stand on a prohibition platform. Bryan and Kern, the democratic nominees for president and vice-president, are calling on the farmers of UiO UUUUIaJ IV Cuuuiuuv^ uvciauj wv the national democratic campaign fund. Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of the party. i'S BIB BILL y 1st we will sell any Buggj k Bottom Cash price and gb ame, FREE OF INTEREST 0 DAYS ONLY, so come e? reliable makes: : : LI TAYLOR-CANNADY, * ndard Buggies and Carriage neighbor for years and you ey?every job sold under an i - * _ _ ir.
