LETTER FROM CHESTER. Correspondence of the Yorkville Enquirer. Chester, May 27.?The Chester County Democratic Executive committee met on Saturday, 24th, instant, pursuant to the call of George W. Gage, chairman. A full attendance was present. The appointment of the State Executive committee, naming July 2nd as the date for a mass meeting and discussion at Chester, was confirmed, while the date of the Chester county convention was tixed for July 7th. A call was made upon the clubs throughout the county to organize for the campaign at once. The following census enumerators for Chester county have been appointed by Mr. Delevan Yates, supervisor of the Second census district: Baton Rouge, W. B. Crawford, John A. Kee; Blackstock, W. T. Corder; Chester town, J. Newton Lewis; Chester township, W. A. R. Wilson, Silas Hawkins, colored ; Halselville, John A. Graham ; Hazlewood, J. W. McAliloy ; Landsford, Leroy Roddey, colored ; Lewisville, Robert R. Gill; Rossville, C. II. Culp. A^ir. Wm. Wilson died near Blackstock last Week, aged 50 vears. Revs. C. R. Hemphill and W. C. Alexander oarrin to Phflstftr Satnrdftv to visit relatives. Both were just from Asheville, where they had been attending the general assembly Some months ago, mention was made in this correspondence of an important invention in the shape of a lock signal to be used on railroads by section men and construction foices at places where the track is up. The inventor, Mr. J. D. Berry, is a section master on the Chester and Lenoir Narrow Gauge railroad, and his invention springs from a knowledge born of experience. The signal is designed to take the place of the llag now in use, and among other advantages, it has that of locking securely to the rail, thus saving the expense of keeping two hands out with flags. The contrivance, like most good things, is simple in construction, and one is tempted, on looking at it to say, "Why did not I think of that myself?" Several citizens of Chester, who know a good thing when they see it, became interested in Mr. Berry's invention at once, and as soon as the patent was secured, work was begun in the way of showing and advertising the merits of the signal, specimens having been made at the works of the Moflatt Man- ] ufacturing company. On the 20th instant a , meeting of those interested was held, and the ! "Berry Signal Lock and Target company" was , organized, with the following board of direct- 1 ors: L. T. Nichols, G. B. White, J. D. Berry, I J. J. McLure, and J. K. Henry. The directors ( subsequently organized with the following officers: J. J. McLure, president; G. B. White, , vice-president; L. T. Nichole, business mana- ] ger; J. K. Henry, secretary and treasurer. The new company will apply for a charter in 1 a few days, ana their capital stock has been ' fixed at $15,000. Three traveling men are al- j ready making known to the railroads of the < land the merits of the signal, with bright pros pects for an extensive adoption at an early date. Sixty-two and a half per cent, of the capital < stock has already been placed, and even the t subscriptions to the remainder are worth a pro- i mium of 10 per cent. j A protracted meeting is in progress at the < Methodist church. The Rev. L. R. Pickett, of Dangerfield, Texas, is assisting the pastor. J Mr. W. A. Barber, secretary of the Chester 1 Fair association, is distributing the premium lists for the next fair, which will open October i the 28th. j Mr. W. H. Hardin, president, and Superin- . /Tendent Duston, of the Chester Manufacturing / company, returned some days ago from Phila- 1 delpbia where they bad gone to purchase a 1 finishing machine for the Chester mill. The i machine is expected to arrive in a few weeks. ( The town council is figuring on the opening ( nf twn n#w streets. one leadinir from tne fair t grounds out past the Walker place; the other 1 runniog from the fair grounds to Pine street, near the Presbyterian parsonage. < The Chester lodge of Good Templars gave its ( members a picnic last Thursday afternoon at ( the sulphur spring near town. The party went ^ out in wagons. The children of the Episcopal n congregation were also treated to a picnic on " Saturday. ! Miss Mav Cornwell is visiting friends at J Hampton, Va. J The Chester Musical association is getting c ready to render "The Little Tycoon," at an early date. c Comptroller-General John S. Yerner, has (j been invited to deliver an address at the clos- ' ing exercises of the Graded school on Friday 1 night, June 27th. Mr. Verner has accepted the j invitation. t Mrs. Jennette Simpson and her grandson, t /Everett Simpson, of Pinkneyville, Illinois, are . visiting Mrs. Simpson's brother, Dr. David Lyle. J Major W. P. Gill died yesterday at his home * near Lewis Turnout, aged 72 years. Major I Gill was sheriff many years ago. and throughout bis long life was a widely known and . popular citizen of Chester county. His remains were interred in the Fishing Creek grave yard. ! LETTER FROM BLACKSTOCK. | Correspondence of the Yorkvllle Enquirer. J Blackstock, May 2(1.?From every quarter I come reports of fine stands of cotton and finely ] growiug corn. The oat crop prospect is also \ very much improved during the last few weeks. But little wheat was planted in this community, so we are not much hurt by the general ' failure in that crop. The scarcity of provisions in our country 1 cau be readily seen from the rapidity with ( which our merchants dispose of corn and < meai. One of our large firms received a ship- , mentof one hundred bushels of meal on Sat- ( urday afternoon last, and by night most of it 1 was sold. i TrtKn Poov Loe rnonntlxr Dafahlikhod ? / beef market in town, furnishing beef about ( twiceaweek. It is to be hoped he will find that j, a business which is such a help to the house- > keepers of our town, especially at this season ' of the year, will prove profitable to himself. Rev. A. M. Chreitzberg preached at Black stock last Friday on his way to Rossville, where j quarterly conference was held at Ebenezer j church. Returning to this place Sunday afternoon, he preached in the Presbyterian church \ that evening. His theme was "God's special r Srovidences," and his discourse was a very neone. * \ Mrs. B. Massey, of Chester, spent several f days last week with the family of her brother, t Mr. E. E. Cornwell. Cadet T. W. Robineon came from the Citadel on sick furlough more than a week ago, and he ? is now lying dangerously ill with typhoid c fever, at his home near this place. * ( LETTER FROM GASTONIA. \ Corre?pondenct; of the Yorkville Enquirer. I Gastonia, N. C., May 27.?The woods are \ now vocal with the young Demostheneses and i Ciceros as the time draws near for the elocu- n tionarv contest in the GastoDia High school. A medal has been offered to the boys for the J best speaker ; also one for the best reader ' among the girls. The music pupils of the ? school will furnish the music for the girls and i the Gastonia brass band for the boys. g It is thought to be a fixture that we are to have ^ a national bank with a capital of not less than . $50,000. The present bank of Craig <fc Jen- . kins will be merged into the new. It will be 1 a hard mattor to find any town that has nun-e 1 enterprising men than Gastonia. ^ c Mr. and Mrs. Jno. H. Craig have gone to f Lenoir, and will continue their "peregrina- s tions" through Watauga. It will be some time before they aro back. Miss Annie Query, of Mecklenburg, came t over yesterday to visit her sister, Mrs. Alex- ] ander, and attend the closing exercises of the 4 school. , Little Robt. Williamson, son of our townsman, Mr. A. C. Williamson, is lying quite low with dysentery. When last heard from, ' Monday evening, it was not thought he would ^ live through the night. brkt. 1 LETTER FROMIOWRYSVILLE. Correspondence of the Yorkville Enquirer. ] Lowrysville, May 27.?We had splendid ( rains yesterday and last night. Crops are growing finely. Grass will soon be growing also. ] Mr. Murchison's school closed last Friday. He informs me that ho expects to go to Wash- 1 ington soon, having secured a clerkship in one ] of the government departments. j Mrs. G. made a discovery the other day of interest to all lovers of blackberry pie. "The red or half ripe berries make a splendid pie. lu this way the blackberry season can be prolonged by two weeks and we have a better pie at no more cost, except the labor of removing the caps. Ye who doubt it, try it. The sight of the Jenkins Rilles to-day, en ' route to Richmond, made some of the boys feel very much like going also. ] No improvement in the condition of Mr. W. , N.Guy. w. <>.<i. 1 FARMERS' MEETING. At a meeting of the farmers of Kbenezer township, May 22, 1890, the follow-1 ing preamble and resolutions were unan-1 imously adopted: Wiiereas, at tnecan 01 uic cnairmaii <>i me executive committee of the Farmers' Association, a convention of farmers, and those who sympathize with them, was held March 27th, and in their wisdom adopted a platform of principles, and made a suggestive nomination for governor, therefore. Resolved, That we fully endorse the action of said convention, confident that R. R. Tillman would make an efficient official and would discharge the duties of an executive wisely and judiciously. Resolved, That tho opprobrious epithets and indecorous criticism of the News and Courier j as applied to Capt. B. it. Tillman, and those I who composed the convention, would have re- ! fleeted more credit on the literature of Grub street, than to have emanated from a journal | that aspires to represent the polite literature of ] the day. R&solved, That a copy of the preamble and I resolutions be published in the Rock Hill j Herald, the Charleston World anil Tuk Yokk- j villk Enquirer. Aefred Moore, Ch'ni. J. A. Shurley, Secretary. The Clemson College.?A meeting of the board of trustees of the Clemson Agricultural college was held at Pendleton last week, and active steps were taken for pre- J paring the grounds for the buildings. Twenty convicts will be put to work im-j mediately, felling timber and doing other preliminary work on the Fort Hill estate. A contract was awarded for three million brick, to be manufactured on the place and delivered at as early a date as possible. A contract for sawing the lumber, to be secured on the lands, was also awarded. Architects, engaged by the board, have submitted plans for the buildings, but they have not yet been adopted. It is expected that the first work will be done on the experimental station and laboratory buildings, the intention being to have the station in operation by October. Steps were taken looking to the location of a station for the college on the Air Line railroad. The station will be a distance of about a mile and a half from the college, though its exact location was not settled upon. SOUTH CAROLINA NEWS. ? All the trouble at Claflin university has been amicably settled. ? Two colored prisoners escaped from Union jail lastAVednesday night. ? Aiken will pay the expenses of her military company to the celebration at Richmond. ?John S. Leaphart, long employed in the Columbia post office, died in Columbia on Thursday. ? Prof. J. F. Brown, of Johnston, has been elected superintendent of the Newberry graded school. ? Governor Richardson has made a contract for a fine mansion to be erected on his plantation near Marion. ? Seven applicants were admitted by the supreme court on Thursday last to practice in all the courts of South Carolina. Vni-mnn oMura havo hppn visitinc houses in Chesterfield county. They were kindly cared for until it was learned they were "Latter Day Saints," and then they were told to "git," which they did in good order. ? Owing to the recent unprecedented amount of drunkenness and disorderly conduct on the public square and elsewhere in Abbeville, the town council has wisely concluded to put on an extra policeman to guard the town in the night time. High license. ? Hiram B. Shirley was killed last Wednesday afternoon on the road from Anderson to his home, about ten miies distant. The exact manner of his death is not known but it'is supposed to have been caused by i fall from the wagon which ran across and dislocated his neck. ? Deaver Hopson, twenty-one years old, son of L. D. Hopson, a prominent Columbia merchant, was drowned in the Snake river, Idaho, last Saturday morning. He was a graduate of the State university, tnd was an engineer in the United States geological surveying corps. ? The attempt to hold an extra term of :ourt in Newberry last week was a failure, :he clerk of the court having omitted to insert the necessary advertisement, as required by law to do. To prevent loss to :he county, the clerk paid the attending urors their fees, of $148, from his own Docket. ? The citizens of Cheraw have filed a Detition with the auditor, authorizing him ;o enter up the levy of three mills for the naintenance of the graded schools, just ?s if an election had been held. They pledge themselves to pay the said tax, vithoutany objections to mode or manner >f its levy or collection. The trustees will ronduct the schools, as heretofore, until he next election on the question. ? At the anniversary meeting of the American Baptist Education society, at Chicago, on Thursday, Col. Jas. A. Hoyt, >f Greenville, was elected one of the four /ice presidents of the organization, Dr. rhos. Armitage, of New York ; Dr. Goodnan, of Illinois, and Joshua Levering, of Baltimore, being the other three. Colonel Hoyt is in attendance on the meeting and lelivered an address before the society. ? The case of Frederick Bound vs. the south Carolina railway, was argued in the Jnited States circuit court, at Charleston, ast Wednesday. The court refused to rrant an order for the sale of the road, and he case therefore goes over till December lext. It is generally believed in Charleson that the Louisville and Nashville lystem will become purchasers of the road ind the refusal to grant the order is said :o be a victory for that system. ? On representations by the board of :rade of Camden, the State equalization aoard have signified their intention to tiave that portion of the Three C's railroad in Kershaw county returned at $11,000 per mile, and this year the penalty being idded, they will probably have to pay taxes on a return of$15,o00 per mile. The reason why this return is not made equal to that of the South Carolina road, is because the Three C's claims to own little or 30 rolling stock. ? The damage suit of Miss Pllizabeth Whitner, of Anderson, against the Richmond and Danville Railroad company for >2o,000 for injuries received in an accident >n the Air Line road, near the Tugaloo iver, in November, 1888, has been decided n Atlanta, the jury awarding $4,o38.38 lamages. It is understood that the amount >f the verdict was considerably lessened jecause it was shown that Miss Whitner lad indulged in dancingsince the accident. The plaintiffs counsel will appeal. ? Governor Richardson, in response to a equest from Secretary Blaine, has noinnated two commissioners and two alter]ates to represent South Carolina at the World's Fair to be held in Chicago in 1893. rhe commissioners from the several States vill elect the officers and boards of the rreat Exposition. The names sent on by he governor are Col. A. P. Butler, of \iken, and Col. J. C. Coit, of Chesterfield, lscommissioners, and Messrs. E. L. Roche, >f Charleston, and H. P. Hammett, of ireenville, as alternates. ? A negro man named Lucius Baxcom vas arrested about four miles from Winns>oro last Saturday and put in jail, charged vith the killing of another negro in Cheser county some four or five years ago. Che statement of the prisoner is that the leceased, on the night of the killing, came o his (Baxcora's) house while a frolic was joing on there and commenced shooting n the house, whereupon he went out and itruck him on the head with a stick. The varrant upon which he was apprehended vas sent by the sheriff of Chester to Sherff Milling, of Fairfield. Strange as it nay appear, Baxcom has, ever since the :ommittal of the deed, remained in Fairield county, and only four miles from the icene of the tragedy, for four vears. ? Of Aiken's defaulting county treasurer he Columbia Register of Saturday says: Mr. J. E. Murray, county treasurer of Aiken, for whose whose arrest a warrant ivas issued by the State treasurer, and who svas sought by Aiken's sheriff in Charlesion and elsewhere, turned up in Augusta, ivhere he was seeking funds to help meet :he deficiency in his accounts. He wilingly returned with the sheriff to Aiken. Yesterday his two bondsmen, Messrs. T. II. Davis, of Beech Island,and L. H. Heulerson, of Aiken, came to Columbia to meet the State treasurer to effect a settlement of the whole matter if possible. The State treasurer being absent at his home in Darlington, the two gentlemen returned to Aiken. It is stated as probable that the whole amount due the State will be paid over and that Mr. Murray will be released. STATE POLITICAL POINTS. ? Belk I-Iill Democratic club, in Kershaw county, endorses the Tillman movement. ? It is rumored in Newberry that Dr. Sampson Pope will enter the race for congress from the Third district. ? It is probable that Tillman and Col. Dargan will meet for political discussion at Eastover, ltichland county, to-day. ? George W. Murray announces himself as a Republican candidate for congress from the Seventh for RpHiifnrtt trict. ? Capt. John M. Patrick, of Anderson, has been nominated by a correspondent of the Greenville News for adjutant and inspector-general. ? The Democratic voters of Corn Township, Colleton county, met at Harleville and adopted resolutions endorsing Tillman. Similar resolutions were adopted by the Farmers' association held at Hebron, Marlboro county. ?'Mt. Tabor and Mt. Zion Democratic clubs of Newberry county, and the St. Paul and Mt. Tabor alliances of the same county, have endorsed Tillman as the farmers' candidate for governor. The Newberry factory hands have also formed a Tillman club and endorsed General Y. J. Pope for attorney-general. ? Chairman E. M. Bray ton, of the State Republican committee, said in Columbia last Saturday, that the Republicans would hold a State convention after the Democratic convention of September 10. Of course, he could not tell what they would do, "but if there were any crumbs to be picked up after the Democratic convention, the Republicans would be on hand to gather them." Mr. Brayton is very wide awake and ready to take advantage of any Democratic dissensions. ? J. Newton Lewis, Jr., writes in the News and Courier: "The farmers claim SO per cent, of the Democratic vote of the State. This, in my opinion, is a big mistake. I was an enumerator in 1880. I found as many negro farmers as white farmers. I also found nearly as many white farm laborers as white farmers. Class the white farm laborers with the merchants, professional men, operatives in factories, with all branches of mechanism, and you will find the actual farmers of the State in the minority. I am confident the statistics will prove my opinion to be correct. ? A Columbia dispatch of Saturday to the Greenville News says: "It is announced here to-day on good authority that Attorney-General Earle is seriously considering unanimous requests from persons throughout the State to enter the field for governor. Friends of General Bratton here also state that pressure on him is so great that he will announce himself next week. There are rumors that several other candidates will soon show themselves. Comptroller-General Vernermade a speech before the Democratic club at Darlington yesterday, in which he declared himself a candidate for re-election. He came strongly out for reform in the manner of the government, but insisted that it is cleanly administered at present." Augusta Waking Up.?An enthusiastic meeting of citizens of Augusta was held in the Cotton Exchange last Saturday concerning the Augusta division of the Three C's railroad from Blacksburg to Augusta. Spirited speeches were made by several gentlemen in favor of the connection with upper South Carolina, Western North Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, Kentucky and Cincinnati and Chicago, and a resolution was adopted endorsing the road and assuring its managers of the cordial support of Augusta's business men whenever their assistance is needed.

Do you propose sowing your wheat and oat stubble land in peas after the grain crop has been harvested ? If such is your purpose you are wise, and will show still more wisdom if you will buy a Coriun Disk Harrow to put them in with. By using the Harrow you can sow your peas in one-liftli the time and at onefifth the expense of the old way of plowing them in, and do bettor work. Sam M. Grist, Sole Agent. May 28 22 tf The Buckeye Light Mower. This world-famed machine has been a standard article of farm machinery for over a third of a century. During this time mowers have been built with nearly every conceivable form of gearing. Competing manufacturers have radically changed the construction of their machines from year to year, because they were forced to get something different from last year's machine. The Buckeye alone has remained for thirty-three years unchanged in the essential features of its mechanism, for the reason that, being based on correct mechanical principles, it has required no change. It is the most perfect machine over given to the world. Illustrated catalogue and prices furnished on application. Sample machine now on exhibition. Sam M. Gkist, Solo Agent. May 14 20 .'It The Yorkville Enquirer. I respectfully beg leave to announce to the people of Blacksburg and vicinity that I am an authorized agent for The Yorkville Enquirer and will receive and forward subscriptions at club rates: One year, $1.75; six months, ?1.00; three months, 50 cents. Lionel Black, May 7 19 tf Food for Thought. There should be a Buckeye Mower on overy farm, where any amount of hay is to be cut. It will cut clover, crab grass, pea-vines or ragweeds, and will pay a handsome per cent, on its cost each year, if given a chance, and will last a lifetime. Machines are doing good work to-day that have been in constant use since 1857?a third-of a century. No other Machine has a record that will compare with this. The following are some of the reasons why the Buckeye should bo on every well regulated farm: It never tells its owner that it has promised to mow for a neighbor, and can't do his work at the time desired. It never strikes l'or higher wages ; only asks to receivo proper care. Never asks for half the hay to be cut. Always cuts every blade of grass, whether it be six inches or three feet high, whether it has been blown down and entangled or stands naturally, and cuts nearer the ground than either a scythe or any other mowing machine. Can be driven on the road as oasily as a wagon. Look into its merits. It will pay you. Sam M. Gkist, Solo Agent. OBITUARY.

QUIl business of last Saturday amounted to something over $550.00! It was something moro than wo expocted,and it was about an we could do to wait on these customers as they presented themselves before our counters. Where they came from is more than we can tell; we only know that thoy did come, and they were supplied with what they wanted. They wanted goods at reasonable prices, and they got them. Our reputation for good goods is before the winds and no man can stay it on its onward march. Our business methods have been built on a rock foundation. We give as much value as possible for the money, and often more than wo can afford. Our one purpose is to please our customers, and we spare no efforts in accomplishing it. We never misrepresent our goods to make sales, and even though sometimes our goods might turn out different from our expectations, it is a mistake of the head and not of the heart, and we are not only willing but anxious to make the proper adjustment. In Gentlemen's Clothing, weare the acknowledged headquarters for York county, having sold over $2,500.00 of Gents' Fine Clothing during the past two months, and the season is not yet over. Such sales are a strong endorsement of our prices, to say nothing of the style and quality or finish of our goods. We are headquarters for Clothing. We won the position by hard work and we are going to hold it. If you want a suit of Clothes for Cash, we will sell it to you at the bottom notch. During the next sixty days we are going to make a tremendous effort to close out our remaining stock of Millinery. Prices will be no object, for wo have determined to close it out for the Cash. If you want Low Cut Shoes for Ladies, now is the time and Latimer's is the place to get them. If you are a cash paying customer and want to buy Laces and Embroideries, go to Latimer's. Ho will sell them to you right. W. C. LATIMER. TO ALL WHOM IT MAY CONCERN. It is utterly out of the question for us to accommodate all the consumers who make application to us for credit each day. We haven't the means to do it. We wish we were able ; but as the matter now stands we have determined to close our Ledger against newaccounts and accommodate only those who have made tho proper arrangements at the proper time. Our business has grown to such a magnitude that this course is demanded, and it will be rigidly adhered to. During the remainder of the season we will offer great bargains for cash, in ordor that more new cuslnmnr? mav bft indnoad to lmv of lis and that we may become better acquainted with their ideas of busiuess obligations ; that is, the merchant to the customer and the customer to the merchant.

THE CAROLINA BUGGY CO., YORKVILLE. S. C. TWO THINGS ARE NECESSARY. TWO things are necessary In order to do a successful business in our line, and it is our constant aim to meet these requirements, and we think we have succeeded. The first requirement is to have the kind of Vehicles that the public want, and the second is to sell them at BOTTOM PRICES. We rarely ever fail to please in both these particulars. We always try to keep on hand a large and varied stock, consistingof CARRIAGES, PHJETONS, SURRYS, BUGGIES AND CARTS, and our object in having these Vehicles is to meet the demands of the public in our line. We now have on hand a very fine selection of the Vehicles above named, and should we be unable to please purchasers with what we may have in stock, our facilities for manufacturing are so complete that we can turn out any style of Vehicle desired ON VERY SHORT NOTICE. We propose to sell Vehicles and lots of them, and we propose to compete both in quality of work, style and prices. We do not ask patronage because we are running a "Home Enterprise." Oh! no, we haye long since learned that that kind of a plea is n? g?, and that in order to do business, business methods must be used, and thus compete with all others in the same line. Come and see us and talk Buggy to us. We l?lv/\ a fnllr T?iwvr?*r frtlLr An/) o vo /lrtnfirlonf "U/fi jiivu iw ioiiv voilv| auu 010 wuuuvuv ?w can interest you. We will now say a few words about WAGONS. We don't manufacture the Wagons we sell, but they are good Wagons just the same. We know they are good, because they have been tried by hundreds of farmers and others in this section and pronounced to be the best. We sell the "OLD HICKORY" and "TENNESSEE." They are first-class Wagons, and at the same time sell at a very reasonable figure. Don't think of buying a Wagon until you see what we can do for you, and if our prices are not as low or lower than anybody's, we will cheerfully submit to our competitors' making the sale. Now, give us a showing. REPAIRING. All repair work entrusted to us will be done promptly and in a proper manner. We solicit this class of work and feel sure that we can give satisfaction every time.
