Finley gave the appointment to an- 1 other man. Mr. Finley: That is not so, Dr. j Strait. At the time I told the young man to get up the petition the con- i gressman had the recommendation of carriers, and before the appointment I was made selection was put under the civil service regulations. I could not i have him appointed. Dr. Strait would not accept the ex- ! planatlon. but proceeded to read a letter that Mr. Finley had written to i an applicant for a postmastership, in i which letter Mr. Finley said that his recommendation was no good with the Republican administration, and then asked Mr. Finley: 1 Didn't you appoint the postmaster at Lancaster? ! Mr. Finley said that he did not; i that the postmaster general made the appointment, and that the postmas- i ter, Mr. Hunter, was a good one, too. 1 He had endorsed Mr. Hunter's application. 1 Dr. Strait said that if Mr. Finley's | endorsement was no good he should < not give it. i Next Dr. Strait said that another t nephew of his had asked Finley for a job; that Finley gave the job to an- < other fellow and paid his nephew >80 ; to keep quiet. Tried to bribe him. < But there is no use to try to buy any 1 of my kin; they'll always tell it. Mr. Finley said that the doctor's < assertion was untrue; that this young \ man had represented to him that he j was anxious to get an education and j asked him to endorse his application < for a scholarship in Charleston college. Somebody else got the scholar- ] ship and Mr. Finley employed the j young man to make a usi 01 names of Chester county and paid $80, the < value of the scholarship, for his la- < bor. He explained that the money < came from a fund the government al- < lows for clerical work. Referring to the King's Mountain monument matter, Dr. Strait said he < would hate to admit that a young ] first year man could get an appro- f priatlon that he had been unable to < get after having been in office for eight years ] Mr. Finley said that he and Mr. \ Webb worked together in the matter < and that he was entitled to as much credit as Mr. Webb, so far as that ] was concerned; but the battle was mainly fought by North Carolina < troops and it was appropriate that Mr. Webb should have the credit of i getting the appropriation. In conclusion Dr. Strait reiterated ( his charge that Mr. Finley spent his time buying votes, and building up a i wall around his position. There being no other speakers af- ] ter Dr. Strait, Chairman Brice thank- i ed the audience for its attention and also the band for the valuable as- } sistance It had rendered and adjourned the meeting. ( i LOCAL LACONICS. ( We Will Send The Enquirer From this date until January 1st, 1907, for 80 cents. Destroyed Some Mash. 1 Constable J. H. B. Jenkins, accompanied by Deputy Sheriff Quinn of ' Yorkville, and Constable A. J^ Quinn * of Clover, made a raid in the Betnany neighborhood last Tuesday night after some blockade distillers that they understood were doing business up that way. Their information was straight. At the place to which they had been directed near the A. C. Stroup place, a short distance from Bethany church they found several stands of mash and evidences that the distillers had been operating within a few hours previous. The stills had been removed, however, and no arrests were made. Farm Changes Hands. Mr. W. J. Gordon, who lives two and one-half miles north of Yorkville, has bought the farm of Mr. John F. Gordon, four miles northeast of Yorkville. The trade was entered into yesterday. The farm combines about 160 acres and the purchase price paid was close ? to 631 an acre. It is one of the most highly improved farms in the county and the Gordons, though not related, are two of the best farmers in the county. Mr. John F. Gordon wants to quit because of his health. Mr. j W. J. Gordon wants a home for his old age. Possession is to be given ^ in December, and it is the purpose of Mr. W. J. Gordon to move on the farm at that time. Mayor Little In Gaffney. ] Gaffney special of Tuesday to Spartanburg Journal: There was a large i crowd at police court again this morning. but they were disappointed. "There was nothing doing." After the crowd was seated, in less than three minutes oftor the mavnr came in. his honor * said, "I notice that we have a good < crowd here this morning, and if there is anyone here who wants to say anything, the way is clear. There is nothing before the court this morning, so we adjourn." At that time Mayor Pro-tern Spears came in and stated " that the council was assembling to try the cases before it. The mayor stated that he had adjourned court. Mr. Spears remonstrated with him, but to no avail. The County Commieeionrs. The county board of commissioners held its regular monthly meeting last 1 Wednesday, all the members being present. A petition was granted for the building of a bridge over Neely's Creek at T. M. Allen's ford. Permis- j slon was given for the opening of a i new road from the Adair's Ferry road to the Hickory Grove and Yorkville : road; also for the opening of a road from Broad River school house to Smith's Ford, also for a road from Mr. C. B. McKnight's to the Adair's Ferry road. Messrs. R. B. Riddle, G. ( L. Brandon ana s. 55. uieuu were appointed a commission to open a road , from Zeno to the Oastonfa road. The ( board specified that In none of the above cases would it pay for rights of , way or growing crops. The Case of Son Cobb. Columbia special of Wednesday, to the News and Courier: "Son" Cobb, the Cherokee county lad. who killed , Pink Norman In a shotgun duel, near Gaffney, five years ago, and who was pardoned yesterday upon the recom- , mendatlon of the pardon board, called , to pay his respects to the governor to- , day, but the latter had left for Chick- | amauga. Cobb is a typical young , mountaineer. He is a sort of a dare devil, it is said, but it seems that in the , killing for which he got a life sentence . he was not to blame. He says he was trying to get away from Norman and ( his crowd and that his was a clear case j of self-defence. He felt so confident that no lawyer was employed until the , trial was upon him, while the other I side brought down Major Hart of York- | ville, to assist in the prosecution. , Cobb was a member of the Second reg- | iment in the Spanish-American war. ( and renewed acquaintances on Law | Range today with a number of ex-offlcers of that command. Cobb says that it is all a superstition about a* man dreaming about his deed when he kills another mar. He says the killing of Norman has "never bothered him." He says he could have killed Norman when the latter first picked up his gun , to get out of his wagon, but that he would not recognize the necessity for killing him until he began to look down the muzzle of Norman's gun. Cobb says he shot Norman trom his wagon between the heads of his pair of mules. Cobb has no complaint about the treatment he received at the penitentiary. ROCK HILL AND VICINITY.

Thursday's game was not so fast, but was intensely exciting at times and the scores were made in two innings. Charlotte changed her battery to "Kiser and Parks" and the locals put in Richardson and Mabry who did splendid work. Kirkpatrick in centre did brilliant work for the home team and "Doc" McFadden beats any MoFadden playing and has produced several of the name who could play ball. The score was 6 to 2. Dr. M. H. Sandifer, who is a member of the State Pharmaceutical board has been in attendance on the meeting of that body in Greenville. Mrs. Sandifer and the children met him in Spartanburg Thursday afternoon and they went up to the "Log Cabin Inn," near Tryon, for a few days recuperation.

Letter to Sheriff Brown Yorkville, S. C. Dear Sir: Here's a tale with three or four tails to it. Professor Irvine has an Academy. Nfercersburg, Penn. He paints the floors in summer vacation. It used to take 90 gallons of paint. There were two paint-stores there, and he used to buy (one year of one, next year of the ither) 90 gallons year after year. Now he paints Devoe; 60 gallons; and the difference is a saving of $150 i year. H. C. Fallon was one ol those dealers, good man; but he wouldn't take-up Devoe; so we turned to the other, J. A. Boyd. But Fallon has found it necessary to get a good paint to compete with Devoe. He got one of the eight honest paints. He has a big hardware store and is doing an excellent hardware business; but Boyd, of course, has the run on paint?he's a little hardware man. We don't care how little or big a man is if he wants good paint and is active and sound. Yours truly, F W DEVOE & CO P. S?J. J.
