incident, as well as by the further fact that others have received letters from him. Tabulated the Vote. The County Democratic Executivecomraittee?J, S. Brice chairman, W. J. Da- < vis, secretary?met in the courthouse last < "Thursday for the purpose of tabulating the vote cast in Taesday's primary, and j declaring the result. All the boxes ( were on hand but two or three. The j committee, however, proceeded with its ( work, comparing as it went along the ofticial returns with the table published in The Enquirer on Wednesday. The comparison showed up two discrepancies. At Clover McLaurin was credited with 76 votes, when he should have had : hut 75. and at McConnellsville, he was credited with only 75 when he should have had 76. This did not change the : general result in any particular, and as < the report in The Enquirer was so | nearly correct, the committee decided that instead of waiting on the tardy mem- i here, it would just adopt the report as ; published, and authorized the chairman to correct any errors which might be discovered afterward. A motion to that effect was proposed and adopted unanimously. The Flint Hill Gold Mine. Special Referee Carlisle, of Spartanburg, has submitted' his report in the case of Peyton B. Love vs. J. G. Love and others, involving the ownership in the Flint Hill Gold mine, in Cherokee county. The material issues in the case were : 1. A claim of L. U. Campbell as to the validity of an option for the purchase of the property for?7,500. This claim was not 1 sustained. 2. Claim of Messrs. Carpen- ' ter, Cudd and Brown, of one-half interest in a claim of Dr. J. T. Darwin, Mrs. i Ada I. Kennedy, or a one-tenth of the 1 whole property. The referee finds that I Carpenter, Cudd and Brown have no claim, and that the interest of Dr. Darwin and Mrs. Kennedy amounts to one-fifth of the Whole. The report goes on to recommend the sale of the property and the divisiou of the proceeds in accordance with the holdings of the respective owners. The plaintiff in the case is repre- ' sented by Major J. F. Hart, and the defendants hv Messrs. Wehster. of Gaffnev. and Thomasson, of Spartanburg. Dr. Darwin and Mrs. Kennedy are represented by W. W. Lewis, of Yorkville. BLACKSBURG BUDGET. One Marriage on Thursday and Another Announced?Dastardly Work of Train Wreckers. Correspondence of the Yorkville Enquirer. Blacksburo, September3.?There was a very pretty wedding in town last night. Miss Madge Metz, of this place, was married to Mr. Herbert Gaines, of Gatfney. The ceremony was performed by the Rev.. Mr. Bailey, pastor of the Baptist church, at the residence of the bride's father, Mr. A. M. Metz, on Mountain street. The happy couple left on the 11.30 passenger train, over the Southern, for Gatfney, the home of the groom, and today they will leave for a trip to New York. Cards are out for the marriage, on the Hth instant, at the Baptist ch arch, Shelby, N. C., of Miss Lillian Alexander, of Shelby, to Mr. E. Franc Dougherty, of Blacksburg. Mr. A. Tripp arrived home last night from an extended visit to friends and relatives in Pennsylvania and Maine. Miss Lizzie Brown, who has been visiting the family of Mrs. M. E. Deal, for several weeks, leavs this morning for a brief visit to friends at Sharon. She will be accompanied by Miss Catherine Deal, who will spend several days visiting at Sharon and Rock Hill, the home of Miss Brown. Captain George C. Nutting, the veteran bridge and trestle inspector of the O. R. <V C., with bis crew, ran into an obstruction placed on the road near Union Mills, in Rutherford county, yesterday, and sustained several very severe and painful bruises.

September 2.?Miss Marie Good died Tuesday, the 24tb ultimo, and 1 was buried at Bullock's Creek on Wednesday. She was the eldest daughter of the late Dr. J. B. Good. Her pastor, Rev. ( J. B.

Plexico was bitten by a small pilot snake, a few days ago, while out with some other boys in pursuit of a mad dog. j Chills aud fever are on the increase, especially on the water courses. Fever is ' again making its appearance 011 the 1 ridges, also. ' Walter Latham is improving slowly 1 from a quite severe attack of fever. Lucy Bankhead, the eldest little girl of Mr. 1 Jas. E. Bankhead, is quite ill with the 1 same trouble. ! Mrs. Jane Smith has been very sick for < several days at her home near here. < We have had but little rain latel;. The j weather has been very favorable to the < saving of a large quantity of tine fodder. Cotton picking has been commenced on ( a small scale, and from the rapid rate at which the early cotton is opening, it will , be but a few days more until some bales will be ready for market. I think our people generally are very well satisfied with the selection of Hon. ! J. L. McLaurin to represeut South Carolina in the U. S. senate, as he was thought, 1 even by some who opposed him, to be the ablest man in the race. ] The sorghum cane crop is better than usual, at least in outward appearance, < though but little molasses has been made.

Turner, who lives two miles , east of Clover. It was classed good middling, weighed 38S pounds. It was bought ; by the Clover Cotton Manufacturing company at 8 cents. About half an hour 1 later another bale was sold by X. H. Campbell, of Bethel, at the same price to the same parties. Classed also good middling. This was the first cotton ginned l>y Mr. W. II. Smith on his new ginning outfit. .Josh. 1 TUESDAY'S PRIMARY. Incomplete Return* Give an Idea How Thing:* Went.

J. Bryan Still Insists on Proper Settle- I ment of the Money Question. I There was a big rally of Nebraska 1 filverites in Lincoln last Wednesday. I The rally was made up of Democrats, 1 Republicans and Populists, and its ob- < ect, like the Willard Hall conference, ' ...?o tn. nA.ici/^ac a hucia rtf iininn Thp < tTOO VV WAIOIUVI M v??w*w v. ... principal speaker of the occasion was Win. J. Bryan, and he spoke in sub- . stance as follows: "The Democrats, Populists and silver Republicans were led toco-operate ast year because they agreed on opinon upon the subject of bi-metallism, ind also agreed in the belief that the noney question was the paramount issue before the people. If bi-metallism ,vas then right, it is right now. If it ,vas the paramount issue then, it is the paramount issue now. If co-operation ,vas wise then, it is wise now. The .hree parties can act together without * ojury to their party organization; ' vithout sacrifice of principles and vithout barm to each other. "The money question must be setled before other questions can be serously considered. To fight each other n the presence of a united and un- j scrupulous enemy, would not only j jostpone the restoration of bimetal- a ism, but endanger the success of every g >ther necessary reform. Continued ;o-operation between the forces, which icted together last year did not mean s hat any one of the parties will swalow the other two. It simply means hat they will travel together while i hey can, and separate only when they i nust. It means that they will place she success of a great cause above the /emporary triumph of any party, and 8 eave the future to determine which * jrganization is most worthy of public ? support. In this great contest men ire only valuable as they contribute o the success of the cause. Personal : imbitions must be subordinated to the aublic good. The man who here, or jlsewhere, urges bis own candidacy to 1 he detriment of the cause is unworthy j >{ the office to which he aspires." CONSTABULARY TO 00. Municipalities to Enforce Dispensary Law j After October 1. s The days of the dispensary constab- J jlary are numbered. One month ( nore and all but a few of the consta- i )les will be discharged. So said Gov? 1 ;rnor Ellerbe to the Columbia newspa- [ ner men on Thursday. i Hereafter it is the intention of Gov- 1 emor Ellerbe to commit what is left of 1 he dispensary law to the municipal s luthorilies of the towns and cities of e :he state, and the only state consta- ^ ;>les who will be retuined will be kept ? it work in the rural districts. Cost of the constabulary last year was $52,030.06. There was no aunoyiuce then from the decisions of Judge Simonton, and the dispensary was very tvell able to stand the expense. Now, jespite the constables, the dispensary s barely able to pay expenses, and the i constables will have to go. I Under the governor's new plans, ] constables will not be allowed to made 1 irrests in towns or cities. This work will be left entirely to the municipal 1 police, who will also be expected to watch all incoming trains for the pur- 1 pose of seizing illegal packages, etc. ^ If the municipal police fail to do their iuty, then the probability is that they l. will be supplanted by metropolitan 1 police. t The new arrangement is to go into , effect on October 1, and the governor bas given the constables a month's ] notice. Ik Silver Should Become Junk.? Leaving out Spanish America, all the millions of Asia and Africa and the Islands of the sea, and continuing our figures only to civilized Europe and the United States, we find that all the ] gold saved through the gatherings of 1 1,000 years that we know of, if all ( coined and divided per capita, would not give the people $10 each. That means Chinese, not Caucasian, civilization. The United States has something less than that amount, and right , now, except for poor crops abroad, this , country would be under just as much ( % depression as it was last year. When we come to add the myriads of people in Japan, China, India, Central Asia, " Australasia, Northern Africa and Spanish America to the others, we fiud h that ol gold there is not enough to ^ give to civilized and semi-civilized j| mankind $4 per capita. Now, when M the world's property comes to be mea-ured iu that quart cup and prices are fixed accordingly, it will meau simply Chinaizing mankind; that is, if h mankind will stand it. They may in ** some couutries, hut in our country it " would inean that the Republic would n pass away on the flames of such a rev- _ olution, as the world never saw. It would be to our country, so far as the people are concerned, what those cataclysms, the records of which make the s divisions which we call geological per- j* 10(13, are 10 me- somq eann. rruui ^ that wreck and chaos a new civilization m would slowly expand. It would require severul hundred years in which to raise a new breed of such Shylocks J as have brought the present trouble to C the world.?Salt Lake Tribune. n ? if ? New York Times: Residents of Bayonne, N. J., saw a peculiar object suspending in the air ou Saturday af- __ ternoon near the Kill von Kull at a J height of about 300 feet. Closer in tt spection revealed that it was attached " to a line flying five Eddy kites and one Hardrave box kite many hundred p, feet above it. The strange object was a flying camera obscura, an invention _ of William A'. Eddy, the kite man, j who calls it a vistascope, and in its n mirrors were reflected views of the J waters of Newark Bay, with yachts and rowboats and even views of dis- j| tant Staten Island. Mr. Eddy's inven- ~*t tion, which was only perfected a month aago, resembles a giant magic lantern a with lenses and screens. The frame work is about 8 feet square, and screen ~ three feet in diameter. It is attached to a regular kite string and can be turned in any direction. The reflec- ^ tions are seen with the aid of field glasses. Mr. Eddy says his invention will be valuable in time of war. The a memy can be observed if located be- Pj bind a bill or fortification. Distant jbjects at sea may also be scrutinized. Effect on Congressmen.?There _ s already much talk about the effect if the result of this election on con- j sessional contests that are soon to ' jome off. The general impression is bat it will do no good to the Candida- ^ ;y of Congressmen Strait, Latimer g, ind Stokes, who seem to be put down of is having received the hardest raps on ,n iccount of the tidal wave for MeLau- P' in.
