propounded, in the affirmative, and expressed
his choice for Tillman for the United States senate.
Tillman, he said, is the Calhoun of the pres- J
ent generation. We need brainy men in the
senate, and for that reason Tillman should go 1
there. Another reason why Tillman should go
to the senate, is that he has fairly won the posi- J
tion. Mr. Stewart wound up with a discussion
of the prohibition question and a strong defense
of the dispensary law, which, he said, was the1
best scheme ever devised by this or any other '
State for the control of liquor. I cannot make a
thorough canvass of the county, he said. My
heart and soul are wrapped up in the Industrial
college at Rock Hill. I have to bo there at least j
once a day and cannot go to all the meetings. I
.However, I am perfectly willing to leave my in-;
terests in the hands of the people of York county.
If they want me to represent them, why I
sliall be more than glad to do so; and if not, I
shall not have a wort! to say.
DR. T. R. CAROTH KRS
was next introduced. He was received with
cheers. With one or two exceptions, he said, 1
ra-ognize every face before me, and it is hardly
necessary for me to attempt to make a speech. |
Though 'urged by numerous friends, it has been
with the greatest difficulty that I have been able j
to get my own consent to become a candidate, j
My personal interests demand that I stay at j
home. In view of the solicitation of my friends,
however, I have decided that it is my duty to [
otter myself and allow you to decide whether or ,
not I shall represent you in Columbia. If you '
send me to Columbia, I promise you now to do !
for you the very best I can. I shall not devote
myself to the business of getting votes two years
hence; but shall regulate my actions in accordance
with what I eonceive to be the best interest
r.r?l.o luwmlu Onn nf flip (rrcutcst issues now
liefore the people of this country is the improvement
of the public roads. If 1 go to the legislature,
I shall confer with other representative
men from all over the State, with a view of devising
a practical system of road improvement.
Our present law, if enforced, would give us
much better roads than we have; but it seems
that it is impossible to enforce this law. I am
aware that if I should succeed in passing a law
that will bo worth anything, for a time its ojieration
will be such as to render me very unpopular
even in my own community. But I am willing
to go through all this. I can outlive it, and the
time will come when you will consider me a
benefactor. To the first and second questions
above, l>r. Oa rot tiers answered yes. To the salary
vs. fee matter, he said that* he was unprepared
to give an answer. He would rather give
the subject more thought, and would probably
be able to answer it more satisfactorily next day.
He was a Tillman man, he said, ami if elected
to the legislature, he would vote for Tillman for
the senate.
S. H. EPFS WITHDRAWS.
At the conclusion of Dr. Carothers's talk.
Chairman Miller read a communication from
Mr. S. II. Kpps, announcing his withdrawal
from the race for the house of representatives,
"After mature deliberation," said Mr. Kpps's
communication, "I have decided to take this
step. Perhaps it may be against the wishes of a
large numl>er of friends who had assured me of
their support: but I desire to say that my withdrawal
is rendered necessary by my inability to
make a thorough canvass of the county."
MR. W. J. STEPHENSON
was announced as the next speaker. Mr. Stephenson,
howover, was not present, and Chairman
Miller introduced
MR. T. (I. CITI.P.
Mr. Gulp said that he was a candidate for the
office of county supervisor. Under the present
system of government, he said, the office of
county commissioner is the most important.
This new office is more important than the office
~r nAi.ntn nmr<miiKiinn?r for the reason that it
practically concentrates in one man all the powers
that are now exercised by the entire board.
In addition to these duties, the supervisor also
becomes chairman of the county board of equalization.
That, of itself, is an important position.
The candidates for the position of county supervisor
are Messrs. Cornwell, Sapoch, Stephenson
and myself. Against these other gentlemen I
have nothing to say. All I claim is that I am as
well able to discharge the duties of the otlice as
any of them, and in comparison with them I ask
you to give me due consideration. Now, fellowcitizens,
I recognize that in one respect, I am at
a disadvantage. I have been county commissioner,
and in this position I had a great deal of
important business to transact. Often I would
have after me a dozen or more people, some of
them personal friends, advocating both sides of
a vexed question. The advocates of cither side
wanted tnings their way. The responsibility
was on me, and the only thing I could do was to
exercise my best judgment as to what was right.
Often it was a questiou of making enemies, 110
matter what I did. '
My friends, politics Is a strange thing. I do
not claim to have always been right; but I do
claim to have always been honest. A great
many people do not consider that. If they do
not get what they want, they consider themselves
aggrieved" Not long ago, the county
commissioners voted to put a tower 011 the :
court bouse. I understand there are sonic people
who think that this action was wrong. The
other day, I heard of a man electioneering
aginst Mr. Cornwell on theferound that he voted
for that tower. Just for my own information, I
took occasion to inquire into the matter. I
found that the man who was electioneering
against Mr. Cornwell, was himself in favor of
the tower; and further, that the record showed
that Mr. Cornwell voted against it. I concluded
that the man had some personal grudge
against Mr. Cornwell, and he merely adopted
this mean way to gratify it. Of course I want
you to understand that I have nothing to say
for or against that tower. The men who voted
for it were just as honest as Mr. Cornwell, and
he was just as honest as they. I give this merely
to show that I myself have made enemies, in
the discharge of my duties, who are trying to
serve me just in the same way.
You know something about this matter of
fees in the township bond compromise suits.
Individual taxpayers in the townships made a
trade with the lawyers and offered to pay the
bills. After the bonds were compromised, it
was represented to the board that it was proper
that all the taxpayers should pay the bill. The
money that had been subscribea by individuals
was returned, and 10 per cent, of the amount
saved was agreed upon as a reasonable fee for
Ihe lawyers. Then came the question as to how
the money should be distributed. From the
way the lawyers talked, each one of them was
entitled to the whole fee. As the best tiling to
be done, we finally decided to apportion the fee
equally among the four firms engaged. One of
the firms took the matter to court, and it is there
now. All I have to say is thutthe board did the
very best it could. As to whether any of 1 he
lawyers are satisfied is doubtful.
Then amiin. a ereat ileal has been said about
the public priming. The mutter hits been
thoroughly aired. You are no doubt familiar
with it, and it is not necessary for me to discuss
it any further. But you know each and every
paper thinks it ought to have the printing, and
whichever one gets it, some ofthe others may be
depended upon to make a. row. I Laughter].
The newspupers have it better way of airing
their grievances than other people, and the
muss is correspondingly greater. In this case,
as in others, however, the commissioners or supervisor
can only do that which he thinks is
right.
.Sow, my friends, I don't claim to be the best
man in York county for the position ; but 1 have
had some experience in the duties that I will
hav.e to perform, and ull I ask is that you size
me up in comparison with the other candidates
who have ottered, and cast your votes accordingly.
MR. S A POP II WITHDRAWS.
Chairman Miller announced the withdrawal
of Mr. K. H. Kapoch from the race for supervisor.
For some time past Mr. Sapoch has been !
suffering from a serious affection of the eyes,
and for this reason he is unwilling to make}
the canvass.
TIIK OTHER CANDIDATES.
School Commissioner Edwards rendered a'
clear account of his stewardship for the past two
years. Mr. John A. Shurley delivered a short
address 011 the subject of education. Mr. C'ansler
entertained the crowd for a half hour with ;
facts and. fancies ; and Messrs. Williams and j
Waters announced their candidacy for the |
Democratic recommendation for the position of!
county auditor. Chairman Miller announced
that Treasurer Neely and Probate Judge Me- ;
Corkle were unable to be present 011 account of
business; but both gentlemen would probably
join the canvass at Kock Hill. The meeting was
then adjourned.

Bi.acksburo, August 14.?While we do not
envy our neigh!?ors in some localities, yet we j
would feel more like rejoicing with them could
. we get some of the rain that has fallen upon and
refreshed their lands. It has come in copious
showers around and very near us several times
during the past two weeks; but Blacksburg's'
soil hasn't had a good wetting in so long, that
we would feel doubly thankful for a twenty-four
hours' rain. The ground is so dry that very :
few people are sowing turnip seed, and are wait- j
ing until there is more certainty of them coining
up.
All of our carpenters are kept busy, and the!
pearance <>t the homes within and around
Rlackshurg, is still showing itself. Besides the I
building which is being done in town, Mr. An- i
drew Goforth is adding a large and convenient,

story upon his dwelling, repainting it and
making other changes that will add to the coinfort
and attractiveness of his home.

Southern Railroad company at Atlanta, and his

Your correspondent has been sharply reprimanded
for not publishing in Thk En qui it Kit a

be made. I will say that the same was sent Th k

to the crowded condition of its columns,
the same was omitted to make room for more
important matter. It is not often that newspaper
men can afford to make room for matters of
mere local interest, to the exclusion of matters of
more general interest. Our local correspondent
published the same in the Union Times, and he
will furnish a copy free to those who apply to
him for it. llope this will set the matter right

Considerable interest is manifested in the decision
of Judge Clary in the case of B. F. j
Hatchings, disposing of property under lieu.
The following is the order of the court in ;
that case:
"The defendant's counsel having demurred ,
to the indictment upon the ground that
the same does not charge an offense, and I
having agreed with the solicitor that the'
mortgage showed a payment after the conditions
were broken, and having agreed to |
submit the questions of law upon these issues
to the court; it is ordered that the demurrer
be sustained and the indictment be quashed,
and under authority of the case of Simrnes
vs. Tallev, the court holds that the indictment
will not lie, the mortgagee having accepted
part payment after the conditions were
broken, and this is held to have waived the I
forfeiture."
Stripped of legal phrases, the decision
mean this : If you hold a ehattle mortgageand
do not take possession of the property ;
when the deed is due, you forfeit your claim
to the property. If you accept a partial payment
on suc h a mortgage, you forfeit your

Deafness Cannot be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot reach the |
diseased portion of the ear. There is only one j
way to cure deafness, and that is by constitu- j
tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed
condition of the mucous lining of the
Kustachian Tube. When this tube gets inflamed
you have a rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely closed deafness
is the result, and unless the intlainiuatiou
can be taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will bo destroyed forever
; nine eases out of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an inflamed condition of
tlie mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot
be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for

The first piece of music that we have selected
or this programme is of a rather domestic and

^his music has a soft, balmy, zephyr air, and

I have left on hand about 25 summer

DIODIS
WILL CURE!
NOW, we last week told you plainly,
that if you had dysentery or bowel
complaint of anykind, DIO DIS would
cure you for 25 cents.
This medicine is put up in small
boxes, containing ten powders and a
small vial, with full directions on the
box. It is not unpleasant to the taste J
and will relieve and cure in 24 hours, j
as has been the case of about twenty
others since the appearance of our
advertisement in last week's Enquirkr
calling the attention of the public
to our remedy. Since then we are
prepared to furnish testimonials from
those who have been cured.
Remember that DIO DIS is the'
cure for ALL bowel troubles. Eat on
drink anything you want. It is per-'
fectly harmless. Contains 110 poison;'
110. dangerous ingredients. Now come
and get a box for family use, and when
the children come in crying with
pains in their little stomachs, just
give them half of a powder and you
will hear 110 more from them. Health
is everything. So says the man of
money. DIO DIS says I will cure
dysentery and bowel troubles. Try it.
MRS. PERSON'S REMEDY.
Yes, we have just received 72 bot-j
ties of Mrs. Person's Remedy, which, |
as a blood purifier and tonic, has no j
equal. It will cure indigestion. Try1
it, as others have done.
We have a complete stock of Drugs
and Medicines, and have just received
another shipment of our most popular
Horse and Cattle powders, which always
does stock good.
Peruna, the great remedy for the
cure of catarrh of the stomach and1
head, is in stock.

IS MARRIAGE
A FAILURE?
LESS need to ask if more people would consider
how much solid comfort and contentment
is allbrded l?y an attractiveset of furniture.
We are in the furniture business, and it is our
purpose to handle such goods and oiler such inducements
in the way of prices, as to make people
know that we do not allow competitors to
monkey with us. Now to get back to the main
point. We have recently laid in a lino of the
handsomest furniture ever seen in tlie Piedmont
section, and are offering a complete set of
QUARTKli-SAWED, ANTIQUE OAK FURNITURE
AT $27..K). Tt consists of the following
pieces:
One Clievnl Dresser, with German Bevel
Glass lH.vffU inches.
One Bedstead,
j One Wnshstand.
One Centre Table.
One ltocker.
Four Chairs,
i One Towel Rack.
tjne nprmg i>?'u uuti .uuiiicss.
j We will sell at the price named at our store, or
delivered free on cars at Rock Hill. Our profit
is distressingly scant, or we would deliver it at
j purchaser's nearest railroad station, free of
| freight. This set of furniture, at the price named,
is a bargain that would make us turn pale if a
! competitor could otter it; but we know they are
[ not "in it." We would be pleased to have all
who want furniture to call and see it and other
goods as well. We'll have more to say about the
$27.50 set of furniture at the proper time. Think
about it, and act.
We desire to call the attention of the pas and
mas of this section, who, alter they have bathed
their faces in the morning and on looking
around for a towel on which to dry, find that
very desirable article missing, having been carried
somewhere and dropped by the "chaps,"
that we have some most excellent and convenient
towel racks; and if the towel is placed on one I
of them it'll always be "on hands" when wantI
ed. They are worth 25 cents. One should be in ,
j every home. It'll save the temper, and it's
worth saving. 1
Don't forget the $27.50 furniture.

ALMOST EVERYBODY
WILL admit that first-class groceries arc
more desirable than those that aro not up
I to the top notch. We believe that every one of
our customers, and they are legion, will say
without hesitation that we sell only top-notch
; groceries. It has, from the lirst day we comj
meneed business, been our oneaimand purpose,
j to sell the people of this community a class
of goods that would make them know that wc
cared something for the interestsof our customers,
and also that there was more than one
grade of goods on the market. Each day we
nave practical testimony of the wisdom of our
course. People who buy from us once, usually
become regular customers.
There are a Few People
However, who have not yet tested our claims,
and we desire to have them try us just one time.
Wo think we can convince them that we know
our business and are entirely competent of sustaining
our claims its to quality and price. Of
course the people whose patronage we solicit are
now patronizing some other establisment, and
we arc willing that they continue to do so unless
we can thoroughly demonstrate the fact that it is
to their interest to turn their faces in our direction.
We can't prove our claim unless they meet
us half way. Of course if they are satisfied with
tho goods they are buying and the prices
they are paying, it is their duty to stay where
they are, because a satisfied man is an individual
to bo envied during these closing years of the
m mt*it'i*i1111 cuiutiry.
We Wont Say What
We have in .stock or what our prices are. Time
and space forbid ; but will close these remarks
by saying that our stock is complete and prices
are such as will please customers and annoy
competitors. Come and see us. Come today if
you can, and if not today, some other day.
