LETTER FROM CHESTER.
Correspondence of the Yorkville Enquirer.
Chester, October 20.?Last week was
consumed entirely by the fair, aud a right
busy week it wasforChesterand its people.
For several years past fair week has been
another name for bad weather, and once
or twice during the earlier days of last
week, there was reason to dread a repetition
of the same experience, but fortunately
these fears proved groundless. There
was a slight rain on Tuesday night, but it
proved a blessing iudeed, for the dust,
which that day had been unbearable, had
entirely disappeared by Wednesday morning.
The exhibit this year was said to
have been far better than at any previous
exhibition.
The display in department F, consisting
of winter preserves, jellies, canned
goods and other building materials
intended for the repair of our clay tenement,
was not quite as full as usual, but in
every other department the opposite state
of atfairs prevailed. Exhibits were in
* 1 * /\M 4ii?o OAlin f ioe ?n fKic
XItillU ITUIXl iUUl \JL II Yt WUUllV/O IM kuiu
State, and also from several exhibitors residing
in North Carolina and in Virginia.
York county was well represented. The
attendance, as a rule, was only ordinary,
although the gate receipts were more
than sufficient to defray all expenses for
this year. The debt of the Association
has also been reduced some from what it
was one year ago, and one or two rousing
big fairs would set things all straight.
There is considerable complaint against
the Richmond & Danville company about
their treatment of the fair in the matter
of rates. If a more liberal policy had prevailed
with this corporation, it is likely
that there would have been a large increase
in the number of visitors. The
Georgia, Carolina aud Northern road,
however, acted handsomely in the matter
of their rates, which were made very low
for the occasion, and brought a large crowd
from all along the line, the delegation
from Monroe being very full.
Thursday's attendance was by far the
largest of any one day. The attraction
for that day was the speech of Senator M.
L. Donaldson, of Greenville. Mr. Doualdson
was introduced by the president of
the association, Capt. R. T. Mockbee, and
his address was along the line suggested
by the present state of affairs in th? farming
world. The speaker referred to the
depressed condition of the farmer and
urged the importance of their organization.

the respect of his enemies, even it failed
to gain their love. Nothing could be accomplished
until unity was attained. Mr.
Donaldson closed his remarks with a tribute
to the ladies.
Capt. Mockbee followed in a short appeal
to the farmers to lend their united
support to the fair, and to endeavor to
lead the State in their exhibits at Columbia.
Congressman J. J. Hemphill was next
called out. Mr Hemphill said he could
not make a speech, but proceeded to make
a short and a good one ail the same, setting
the crowd in excellent humor before he
finished.
Aside from the speaking, the great attraction
on Thursday was the exhibition
of harness'horses, single and double. This
display was very large and very fine, excelling,
itissaid^someexhibitionsofalike
kind at Columbia. - ' I
Friday was rather a quiet day at the
grounds, the only matter of interest being
the award of premiums in the afternoon, j
Among the York exhibitors who were
successful were the Carolina Buggy Co.,
Holler & Anderson, Creighton, Sherfesee
& Co., W. D. Glenn, 0. H. Smith, J. C.
Witherspoon, J. A. Darwin, and S. J.
Kimball.
Sites have been determined upon at last
for the proposed graded school building
and the town hall. For the former, four
acres of land on the Brice tract, lying
southwest of the Baptist church, have

building it has been decided to purchase
the Shannon lot, on the public square.
Mr. Albert Spann, of Leesville,and Miss
Lilly Lemmond were married on Thursday
night at the residence of Mr. Thos.
W. Shannon, the bride's step-father, liev.
G. P. Watson, of Orangeburg, performed
the ceremony. Mr. and Mrs. Spann left
Friday for their Leesville home.
The ladies of the Methodist church gave
a hot supper for the benefit of their organ
fund on Wednesday night, at Nail's hotel.
A well attended hop was given at the
factory building on Thursday night.
Court is still at work. The criminal
docket was disposed of during the fiflt
three days of last week. A remarkable
feature of the calendar was the number of
assault and battery cases in which both
participants were white. One of the most
important of these was the Connor and
McFadden shooting affair, which was continued
from the last term of court. The
verdict at the trial last week resulted in a
failure to agree on the part of thejury, and
hence a mistrial was ordered. The principal
interest in court affairs last week centered,
however, in the Joe Foster cases.
Foster, it will be remembered, was charged
with attempting to rape, and larceny of
a mule on which to escape. He was arrested
at the time at Gastonia and lodged
in jail at Dallas until court should convene
here, to prevent lynching. The prisoner
was brought to Chester on last Tuesday
afternoon, and as soon as he arrived the
lynching talk was revived. The Lee
Light Infantry was ordered out to guard
the jail that night. Wednesday morning,
Foster, who is a mere boy, not over sixteen
or seventeen, was brought into
court, and as there was some difficulty in
the way which prevented his immediate
trial on the graver charge, the mulestealiDg
case was called and tried at once.
A verdict of guilty was reached, and Foster
was sentenced right away by Judge
Pressley to three years in the penitentiary.
It was desirable that the prisoner should
be disposed of at once, and it was determined
to take him to Columbia that afternoon.
The military was again ordered
out to escort the prisoner from the jail to
the depot, and a detachment of five men
detailed to guard him to Columbia to prevent
any attempt at violence on the way.
It was thought that the would be lynchers
might assemble at Cornwell and make a
demonstration, but peace reigned in Cornwell
as well as in Warsaw, and the convict
was landed safely at the penitentiary.
As the Light Infantry had acted under the
governor's orders, the Columbia detachment,
of which your correspondent was
part, was instructed to report to his excellency
as soon as the prisoner had been delivered
to the proper authorities. The
gallant commander of the squad was not
very familiar with the ways of such poten-1
tatesand he made special provision, before
reaching the governor's mansion, in the
line of courtesy and propriety. The result
was that when the governor's butler,
black as midnight, answered the door-bell,
our g. c. lifted his helmet to His Darkness
in a style that was simply sublime. It
was learned that the governor was absent
from the city, and our commander was at
a loss to know whether to report to Mrs.
liichardson, or the private secretary, or the
butler. The last named worthy, realiziug
the dilemma, invited us into the governor's
study, or office, as the case may be,
while he went to summon the aid of Mrs.
Uir>h?rrlsnn. Once in the stuilv our com
manding officer picked out a chair which
seemed to be the governor's own, and in
taking his seat therein, stuck his bayonet
scabbard fair through the bottom of that
big chair. The gaping wound is there to
this day, and if any man is doubtful let
him go to Columbia and stick his finger
through it. Mrs. Richardson appeared in
a few moments, the report was delivered
in fine form, and we beat a hasty retreat
without the loss of a single man.
A slight wreck occurred near town on
the Lancaster road, Saturday, delaying
the afternoon train for an hour or two.
Rev. Mr. Jones, of the Baltimore conference,
is here visiting his brother, Mr. S.
M. Jones.
Rev. John Simpson, of West Virginia,
spent several days in town last week.
Mr. J. E. Wylie has recently been appointed
postmaster at Wellridge.
Miss Adeline Wachtel has gone to Madison,
Ga., on a visit; Miss Esther Gunhouse,
to Macon.
The Presbyterian and the Associate Reformed
Presbyterian churches were both
closed on Sunday, Rev. Geo. Sumrney
being at Spartanburg attending Synod,
Rev. J. S. Moffatt being at Prosperity attending
Synod. Messrs. Joseph Wylie
and A. G. Brice also went to Prosperity
on the same mission.
Rev. Henry D. Ho wren, the reformed
drunkard, and at one time a reporter on
the staff of the News and Courier, is expected
to deliver two addresses in Chester
this week, one on Thursday night, the
other on Friday night.
? Says the Kingstree correspondent of
the News and Courier: Merchants complain
that business is late and almost stagnant.
There is something unusual in this
condition of things. Either the crop is
very late or unusually small, or the farmers
are endeavoring to hold their cotton.
LETTER FROM UNION.
Correspondence of the Yorkville Enquirer.
Union, S. C., October, 2G.?Farmers
have had splendid weather for gathering j
crops, and are making good use of the opportunity.
Nearly all of the cotton has
been gathered from the field. Cotton is
coming in very slowly. Our market is ?
of a cent higher than our neighboring
towns.
The regular monthly plume drill of the
Johnson Rifles took place last Wednesday
night, in the court house. A large number
of ladies were present. . Corporal T.
McNally, was adjudged the best drilled
man. After the drill, the company and
their lady friends repaired to the hotel,
where they partook of a sumptuous oyster
supper. It is very probable that our company
will take part in the "sham" battle
at the State fair.
The gin house of Mr. Jno. C. Richards,
of Fish Dam, was burned last Wednesday
night, together with 25 bales of cotton, and
a quantity of cotton seed. The fire originated
from a spark from the engine.
Business is on a standstill at this place,
but better times are expected in a few
weeks.
Miss Blanche Gage, alter a pieasanc visit
to her friend, Miss Daisy Gist, of Yorkville,
returned home last Tuesday.
Miss Mary Whisonant, a very popular
young lady of York county, is visiting the
family of Dr. J. H. Bartles.
Last night at 7 o'clock a cold rain began
and continued through the night. The
weather this morning is much cooler.
I regret to State that Maj. F. H. Counts
is quite ill.
Mrs. M. A. Sartor, one of the wealthiest
old ladies in this county, died at her home
in Fish Dam last Thursday.
Mr. W. D. Arthur, of this place, was
married last Thursday to Miss Nora Wilson,
of Lodo, Mecklenburg county, N. C.
They arrived home the nextday.
Mr. E. W. Jeter was thrown from his
mule last week while on his way home
from this place, and was very badly injured.
Mr. Samuel J. Hay, one among our oldest
citizens, was attackedjwith his third
stroke of paralysis yesterday morning.
He is some better now.
Miss Mamie Bailey has returned home
from Cooper Limestone Institute, where
she graduated with first honor, w. g. c.
NOTES FKUM LlMYKISVlbLii.
Correspondence of the Yorkvllle Enquirer.
Lowrysville, October 28.?The cotton
crop is very short in this section. Not
more than three-fifths of a crop will be
secured.
The brick for the church are being delivered
on the ground.
Mr. E. H. Abel died here this morning.
He had lived a long and useful life.
He was seventy-seven years of age. Lowrysville
is indebted to him for nearly all
the business portion of the town. He had
recently erected a neat store room on his
lot here, and the carpenters are now erecting
a nice dwelling under a contract entered
into with him some time ago. The
death of Mr. Abel will be a serious loss to
this community. w. o. G.
? The Walhalla Courier says that Powell
& Mitchell, furniture manufacturers of
Marquette, Michigan, have secured nearly
all the timber, such as poplar, ash and
white pine on both sides of Chatuga and
Tugaloo rivers for a distance of over fifty
miles. They have procured a suitable site
for the boom and mills, near the Air-Line
railroad bridge on Tugaloo river, and in
the near future will begin the manufacture
of this immense body of timber into useful
articles of furniture and husbandry.

It Will, It Will, It Will.
Below will be found someof the claims made
by the manufacturers of the Corbin Disk Harrow
for their justly popular implement. The
reader will observe that they use positive language
in presenting its merits. They don't
say it might, or it ought, or it should do so and
so, but that il will :
The Corbin Disk Harrow will level rough
land. Will soften a summer fallow. Will
break up clods and lumps. Will pay its cost
by increasing the yield. Will make the best
possible seed bed for grain. Will work around
stumps, in hollows, or on knolls. Will mix
rough manure with the soil as no other harrow
can. Will lift and turn the soil to bo fertilized
by the sun and atmosphere. Will cut weeds,
corn sialks, cotton stalks, and roots and bury
them at one operation. Will increase the crop
at least twenty per cent, by reason of its thorough
work. Will prepare grain stubble and
corn stubble and cotton stubble lands for sowing
without using a plow. There is no implement
in the world adapted to more uses, and
none has been more successful in every locality
where introduced. The Corbin Disk Harrow
is intended to successfully take the place of the
Cultivator, Drag, Smoothing Harrow, Spring
Tooth Harrow, Drill, am* on some soils the
Plow, for it will do all that any, and more
than most, of these tools will do. Used as a
Seeder it will cover every seed to a uniform
depth. Will pay its cost iti seeding grain
alone, as it covers every seed. Will enable the
j farmer to seed four times as many acres in a
j day. It will sow all kindsof grain more evenly
than can be done by hand.
no i NTS of SVPKRIORITY.
1st. The Corbin is the only Disk Harrow that
! is perfectly flexible.
2d. It is the only Harrow in which the gangs
run independent of each other.
3d. It is the only Harrow having chilled boxes
I and anti-friction balls.
4th. It is the only Harrow with a successful
Seeder Attachment.
5th. It is the only Combined Harrow and
Seeder that covers every kernel of grain in
rows like a drill.
Gtli. The Corbin is unequalled for lightness
of draft, power as a pulverizer, utility for sowing
grain, capacity for covering seed grain at
any depth, ability to mix coarse manure with
the soil and for its convenience in going to and
from the field.
Every farmer who has not already done so
should read carefully from beginning to end

"My father had cancer and my husband died c
of cancer. In 1875 a lump appeared on my *
nose, and from its appearance and rapid growth,
I became alarmed with the idea that I, too, had
cancer. I consulted my physician about it, and
ho gave me an ointment to put on it. When
this did not relieve me, ho then burnt it out,
but the place would not heal. It gradually j
grew larger and worse, and I had fully made c
up my mind that I must also die of cancer. (
Friends prevailed on me to try Swift's Specific ?
(S. S. S.) This I finally consented to do. After t
taking a few bottles I was entirely cured. a
Swift's Specific (S. S. S.) cured mo when the
doctors and all other medicines failed.

Four Years on Crutches.
P'or fifteen years I was afHicted with rheuma- a
tism, four years of which I was compelled to go F
on crutches. Words are inadequate to express ?
the suffering I endured during that time. Du- ^
ring these fifteen years of existence (it was not r
living) I tried every known remedy without o
receiving any benefit. I finally began on
Swift's Specific (S. S. S.), which, from the first,
gave mo relief, and to-day I am enjoying the
best of health, and am a well man. I candidly
believe that S. S. S. is the best blood purifier on
the market to-day. J. D. Taylor, ]

PROMPT PAYMENT
[s Essential to a FirstClass
Credit.
EVERY advertisement that has appeared
in the Enquirer since January 1, 1889,
ver my signature, has heen written strictly
nth reference to the above idea. 1 have under
io circumstances solicited the patronage of
Irones. I have in eyery instance sold goods
n competition with cash competitors at a bare
iving price?olFering all the accommodation
hat lay in my power. These accommodations
rere offered in the hope that 0111* customers
rould appreciate the spirit in which they were
(fered, and reciprocate the favor promptly.
Of course there must bo a settling time?no
nan can go on and 011 in this way eternally,
t will bring disaster on supplier and consumr
alike, and cause untold miseries to be
wrought in a community.
Every dollar's worth of goods which haye
?een sold on credit and taken from our store,
hould have been paid for by the 15TH of OCTOBER;
but some persons have notcomplied
nth their promises. Such should not be the
ase, for several reasons :
First. My plan of doing business for the
iast year has been plainly set forth in these
olumns each week.
Second. That wo only advortised to sell
oods on a credit TO PROMPT PAYING
:REDIT CUSTOMERS.
Third. That these goods were sold in cometion
with cash prices.
Are tho above reasons not sufficient? We
oukl recite many others, but wo think that
lieso are quite all that are necessary, for our
ustomers, as a class, are intelligent, and busiess
men, and we hope that our book-keeper
nil have more to do for the next few weeks.

DOBSON'S RACKET
I Think the only Strictly Cash J
Store In Torkvillc.
Immense Sales during the past Week.
* i
DOBSON'S RACKET lias had nothing like {
the past week for sales. It's sales of all i
kinds of goods during the week outrival its j
highest anticipations. Nothing like it before, r
and the largest portion from entirely new cus- j
tomers. It seems like almost everybody that
came to town called at DOBSON'S RACKET 5
STORE. Two customers?one from the east- j
em and one from the western part of the coun- '
ty?remarked to me: "You must be selling a very
large amount of goods, as nearly every
person we meet says they are buying goods
from you. They say you have a genuine Rack- J
et Store in the full sense of the word ; that you 1
have but one price, and that a low one, to all; that
you treat everybody alike; sell to all for
cash and have no pets that you charge goods to ; 1
that is one reason your trade is increasing so J
fast; that you credit no one, have no books and a
can afford to sell and do sell cheaper than any
house that sells on credit."
"Yer, sir; I can and will. I am fighting 1
high credit prices the same as the alliance is i
lighting the merchants ; and I am succeeding J
well, and I hope they are too. I am adding new c
lines every week. This week I have added the o
celebrated Earl ifc Wilson COLLARS AND c
(jur Picture r ramesat about one ban tne former
price. I Lave also added men and
women's Carpet Slippers and men's Goat and i
Patent-leather Slippers, lower than they have J
ever been sold in Yorkville. I have just re- r
ceived the best School Shoe for boys and girls f
that has ever been shown in Yorkville ; noth- i
ing like them in the place. Sizes,from 12 to 2.
They will do for boys or girls. Don't fail to see
them. My Wool Knitting Yarn has arrived,
and I hope I will not get out any more. I have
a largo stock of almost all kinds of Zephyrs at
10 cents per ounce. I also keep Well Duckets,
Pullevs, Shot Guns?single and double barrel;
also, ilreeehloading single Guns, $1.00; double
barrel Guns, ?5.24; Wood Bench Screws at 31
cents; all kinds of Tinware; some nice Bath
and Foot Tubs, very nice. A tremendous stock
ot Pants, Vests and Coats. Also Knee Pants
for boys at 25 cents. White Bed Blankets at
one dollar a pair. If you find any wool in
them you can bring them back.
My Racket Tobacco and Soda is capturing
York county. Nothing like it in town. I
would be afraid, and could not tell just how
many ladies', men's and children's Shoes we
sold on Saturday last. It would be wonderful
to tell. A genuine good Racket Boot fdr $2.00.
Well, I must tell you a little about my Racket
Millinery and Dress Goods. My Milliner,
Miss KEENE, has just been as busy as she
could possibly be, assisted by Miss CORA
CLARK and myself all the time. I am still
headquarters for all kinds of goods in that line,
selling just quantities of Hats and Bonnets
and just piles of Children's Sacques and Wool,
Plush ana Silk Hoods forchildren. Miss Clark i
and mvoolf will irivn rnn all the newest dots
about Dresses. We have the nicest line of r
Goods and the largest line of Trimmings to be ?
found anywhere, and all at my Sheriff's Sale &
prices. Don't fail to see my Trimmings before o
you buy, as they are pretty. ti
My stock of Perfumery is just beautiful and c
low priced. Some of the newest Novelties in h
town. My Needlo Novelties?nothing like
them in town. I sell two Papers of good \
Needles, 1 dozen assorted large Needles, and 1 b
dozen assorted Lace and Shawl Pins, all for 10 c
cents. I also have the nicest thing in the way
of a beautiful Plush Book, which contains 4 Pa- g
pers of good Needles, all for 25 cents. Sells at r,
sight. Beautiful thing for a present.
I have also added a lot of nice Silver Cups at n
my Racket price?only 50 cents. Slate, Pen n
and 1 dozen Slate Pencils for only 10 cents.
Paper at 3, 5, 7, 9 and 15 cents per Quire. A
bran now Novelty in wooden case: 1 Load Pencil,
1 Slate Pencil, 1 Pen, 1 Penholder, and 1 jj
Rule, all for one Nickel. Slate Cleaners only 5 A
cents. Sponges at 1, 4, 5 and 24 cents. I have ^
a large line of Old Ladies' Caps; very pretty. y
Trunks. If you want to buy, see my big stock q
before you purchase. ft
DOBSON'S RACKET is a big thing and a
genuine Racket, and one that is being felt and
appreciated by Yorkville and York county.
It is selling goods in almost every corner of
York county. When it opened its doors a few
months aero. it was thought that it would not .
amount to much. Now it is a big concern; p
deals fairly and squarely with all mankind ;
stoops to nothing but low prices to effect sales ;
treats all its competitors fair ; wishes them all ^
success; and tries to sell every dollar it can
fairly. It is here to stay, and stay on hightonecl
principles. Sustaining itself by selling
goods at living low prices, and misrepresent- ^
ing nothing to make sales. It is a high-toned,
low-priced, genuine Racket Store, and a onepriced
one, too ; soiling to every person at the
samo price. Children can buy goods as cheap
as the most expert buyer.
Parties taking goods homo to look at must re- I
turn them at once, or send money for them, as *
we frequently miss a sale by not returning
them at once. Thanking my thousands of customers
for their kindness in trading with me, I
bid them adieu until next week, when they
shall hear from me again.

S
"^^"E are ready ! We are leaders?not followers.
Wo are a fixture, and our movements
are watched with an eager eye. We are fol- j?
V
lowed by few and imitated' by none. We ^
have driven many of the old "credit concerns"
into tho "cash system," with the vain hope that
thoy might imitate our method of doing business.
This of itself is sufficient evidence ^
w
to show that we are "objects of envy" to say
nothing of the malice displayed. 1
We are selling goods for a living, and we
treat our customers the best we know how. g
We do not resort to unfair means to give our
goods precedent over our competitors. We
quote our prices with reference to the prices
paid for our goods, and we have always been controllers,
introducers and leaders of low -
prices, and this is the position that we intend to j?
hold. t<
o
Only a few days ago a patron of ours came s<
into the New York Racket Store. He wanted P
si
seventeen pairs of Shoes. lie asked us if we c
would make a special price on seventeen pairs ?
of a certain kind of Shoo. Wo told him to scour
the market and see if ho could get lower prices h
\
than we were prepared to oiler. lie came back 0
an hour later and asked us to wrap the Shoes
up and to give the best prices we could afford
on them. Of course wo did that. We sold the
n
Shoes, and it might bo well to add that we con- is
e
trol the sale of that Shoe in this market, hav- li
b
ing made an arrangement with a Massachusetts a;
Shoe Factory to take so many pair of Shoes __
each year with the privilege of increasing our
odor.
Mr. Randolph Hagans wore a pair of our
$1.<?7 Shoes twelve months without additional
cost. He bought another pair a few days ago.
We haye the best Unlaundried Shirt in the
market for 50 cents.
(So to the New York Racket Store for Men's
Roots for $2.
Not by favor, but by niorit alone, will we
maintain and increase our unrivalled reputation.
Big prices will not do in these times
when even the wealthy cannot atroril to waste
their money, and the poor require double duty J
tt
of every dollar and every penny. Watch us w
for we aro going to bestir ourselves. We have I'
no spaco to quote prices, but we have our goods r('
marked in plain figures and will protect our j fa

T WILL DO TO REPEAT.
EVERAL months ago we made a stateI
ment in The Enquirer which we think
II bear repetition. This statement was "that
are were various grades of fancy, as well as
iple groceries, and that for the sake of an
areased profit, some dealers bought the in ior
article and sold them at the same price
which the best grades were sold ; and at the
me time we made the statement that never,
der any circumstances, did we buy or offer
sale any but the best goods obtainable."
e now repeat the statement. We now have
stock a complete line of the most popular
nned goods and also a fine stock of Fresh
,ncy Groceries.
