The rules adopted for the govern ment of the primaries say that the managers of election shall open the polls at 8 o’clock a. m. and shall close them at 4 p. m. This fact should be particularly impressed upon the vo ters, as few understand this regula tion, and unless it is generally under stood many voters are liable to be shut out. The Edgefield Chronicle says “from all accounts theTillmanites—the lead ing ones of Merriwether Township- are raving with wretchedness, run ning about like mad dogs, with tongues hanging out, at the prospect of Ben Tillman being beaten in the primary at his own box. And, truth to say,"he is already beaten.” It is stated that the capacity of the pine fibre factory near Hamburg is about to be enlarged materially The company has purchased all the ma chinery of the pine fibre works near 'Wilmnington, N.

To the voters of Aiken County : Whereas, it is currently reported in some portions of Aiken County that Capt M. V. Tyler, one of the candidates for Sheriff in the coming primary elec tion, did present himself as an indepen dent candidate for said office after his defeat in the primary election eight years ago, and as such reports are cal culated to injure him in his present can vass, therefore in order that justice may be done and that Capt Tyler may be re lieved of said charge, we the undersign ed do hereby desire to correct the same by the following statement of facts, viz: The tickets bearing Capt Tyler’s name, and which were used in the gen eral election on that occasion, were pro cured and distributed on the day of election solely by the undersigned with out the knowledge or consent of him, and therefore he should not be held re sponsible for the result. A. W. Sanders, Geo. K. Toole, James A. Moseley. Aug. 20th, 1892. Mr. Tyler himself adds the follow ing:— “In reference to the above card of my friends, I have the following statement to add, viz.; On the day of the general election of 1884 I heard that my name was being used as an independent candidate for the office of Sheriff. I immediately went to Aiken to stop the report, and stated to the editor of the Journal and Re view that the movement was put on foot without my knowledge or con sent, and that I would not serve if elected. The files of the Journal and Review will verify this statement. “I desire also to add that there is a report being circulated that I was brought out by the Sheppard faction of the Democratic party to defeat my opponent. I denounce such report false. I am a candidate for the office of Sheriff’ solely on my own merits, and many friends in both factions are warmly supporting me. So far as my own political views are concerned, I have nothing to conceal, I have been the advocate of the reform move ment from it’s birth, and expect to vote for the reform candidates for State officers in coming primary elec tion.

It is a truth in medicine that the smallest dose that performs the cure is the best. Dewitt’s Little Early Ri sers are the smallest pills, will per- fojrm the cure and are the best. On Friday while out riding with friends near the base ball grounds lit tle Crim, son of Col. F. M. Mixson, was thrown from his horse. His head struck a three pronged stump and his skull was crushed. His little friends, Chas. McMillan, Ed. Sanders and Virgil Nevils, did all they could for him. Drs. Briggs and Stephens were quickly summoned and dressed his wound. They did not expect him to live longer than two hours but he is perfectly conscious and getting along splendidly.—Barmccrt People.

Now when the hosts were camped over against each other for battle, it was determined to make a numbering of the people. 2. And Samuel ‘the Sheppardite did go in and out among the tents of the Sheppardites, and numbered the men of war, and it was found that there were assembled for battle two score and five thousand faithful and true men. 3. And Benjamin did appoint John the senator to make a numbering of his hosts. But when he had entered upon his labor he was exceeding wroth at the smallness thereof; and sending the captains of tens and the captains of fifties out into the byways and hedges they compelled all "of the timorous to come into the camp of the Tillmanites; and when he had found the number thereof it was two score thousand. 4. But wdien he had come unto Ben jamin his master he made pretense that his hosts were numberless as the sands on the sea shore, and that the number of the Sheppardites was but one score and fifteen thousand men. 5. In this he dissembled in his speaking, and knew in his heart that he spoke not the words of truth, for the camp of the Sheppardites far ex ceeded his own. 6. Now while these things were done the word came unto Zeraccha boam the prophet, saying prophesy. How reaaest thou the signs of the times? 7. Accordingly he opened his mouth from the midst of the camp of the Sheppardites and said, why doth Ben jamin rage and the Tillmanites im agine vain things? 8. The sword of the Sheppardites is upon them and shall overthrow them utterly, so that they shall vanish from the land. 9. The wrath of the people is kin dled against the false rulers who have deceived them so basely and even now the phials of their wrath are ready to be poured out upon them. 10. And thou John the Senator, though thou art falsely exalted thou shall be brought low. Forasmuch as once thov bast been a fugitive and a vagabona in the land, thou shall be again as one. 11. Oh! Benjamin the Tillmanite the w’rath of the people is heavy against thee. Gird up thy self and take again thy staff in thy hand and prepare thee withall senpt for thy purse, so thou mayest render just measure unto the carrier of travelers. 12. For verily thou shalt turn thy face again to the land of thy fathers, and become again as thy brethren, a tiller of the soil. 13. Thou hast been made ruler over much, but thy face has been turned away from justice. Thou hast wick edly spoken against the judges of the people because they declared not the law according to thy desires. 14. Thou hast wasted the treasure of the people and rendered not in due season thy tithes to the tax gatherer and hast wickedly sold thy herds un to the State whereby thou hast un justly made profit of many sheckels. 15. Because of thy evil doings strife is abroad in the land, and father is divided against son and brother against brother. Oh! unjtist ruler thou shalt be cast into outer darkness, where with them who clung to thy gar ments there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth. 16. Inasmuch as thou hast delighted in cursing, let thy curses return and be visited upon thee, thou unprofitable servant. 17. And thou Hugh the captain of the hosts, thy trumpet shall no lon ger call unto the battle. Thou shalt flee with exceeding great haste from before (he face of the Sheppardites even as thou hast fled before the tax gatherer; and from afar shalt thou hear the thunder of the captains, and the shouting. 18. And when the Sheppardites shall have conquered all things, John the Sheppard shall rule in the room of Benjamin, and then shall the land be filled with peace, and unity shall prevail among all the people. 19. Then shall the people call James to sit upon the right hand of John the Sheppard and, Lawrence who Is sur- named Youmans shall be chief scribe to the people. 20. These, Oh people, are the words of Zeracchaboam the prophet, and this sign will I give unto you that ye may know when all of these things have come to pass. 21. When John the Sheppard, and they that are with him shall have be gun to rule in the land, there will be heard a voice of weeping, and lamen tation, and great mourning; the Till manites weeping for their offices and refusing to be comforted because they are not.
