A <;<:i)'> MAX IOU GOYIOHN'OK.
Tho Un ff noy Ledger calls upon the
tien, t?eorge ll. Cromer, ol" Newberry,
to make Ibo race for Governor of j
South Carolina. '-.Mr. Cromer is well
known to the people of Cherokee
c< unly," says Ibo Ledger, " and it
is the opinion ot' ail that he w/>ubl
moko a splendid Chief Executive."
Tho Ledger ls right in its esti-.
malo of George H. Cromer, of New
berry, than whom tlmro is no more
honest and consett." lions man in
our State or Nation. Besides that he
l as marked ability; be is a stales
man by nature; a deep thinker anti
a clear reasoner, and Iiis judgment
is sound. Ile is a gentleman in tho
line sense and in every sense ot' the
ti im. South Carolina has many men
of large calibre, men ot' big minds,
men of Integrity and ability. The
Ledger lias, however, in our opinion,
called the attention of the voters of
South Carolina to Ibo biggest, clean
est, the truest type of gentleman to
be found in our Stale to-day.
Tile Courier most heartily endorses
the Ledger's suggestion. We hope
that Mr Cromer will take it as a call
.i'r<.iii Iiis people lo offer himself for
service to them in a time when the
need of the hour is great men of his
calibre.
Wc know 'hat Mr Cromer's per
se pa j preference won I tl lake bini far
: i fit"! i.i o Ve rn o r's. Dftio^ and froijv
'a relit
and, though his entrance into poli
llos would entail personal s.'.crillee. ;
to liim, he is big enough to make t o
?; crillee for ?lie good of iii- State,
unless, perchance, I hore be insur
mountable obstacle in tho way, of
which v..- mid other friends of lils
know aol of.
TH IO GA I CAVA Y TO HIGHLANDS,
A citlz.cn of Walhalla brings to
our attention the fact that Walhalla
is "The Gateway to Highlands" ami
suggests that some united action be
taken by the citizens >f Walhalla to
bring this fact prominently before
the outside public, lt is suggested
and thc suggestion seems a good one
- that the Chamber of Commerce
could k?inch a very strong and ef
fect ive work in this lino by moans
of olllcinl action in the matter by
thal, body.
Walhalla has always enjoyed a
considerable business' In tho matter
of transportation of tourists to the
Highlands and other points. Now,
however, with Improved roads lo
tho mountains, our opportunity In
the line of transportation will he
vastly greater. It seems to us, as
well as to tho gentleman who has
called our attention to tho matter,
that H is well worth consideration at
tho hands of the Chamber of Com
merce and tho citizens generally.

finding its largest sale in the discriminating local

A piano of utmost structural integrity, resulting in
durability and economy of maintenance unexcelled.
Thc piano chosen by over 500 leading American

It has been and is being built in but one grade-the
highest-by the same interests, with the same
artistic ideals to-day as in 1880.
