Ifo* |mii Atui E. H. AULL, EDITOR. Entered at the Postoffice at New berry, S. C., as 2nd class matter. Friday, October 30, 1<JU8. SILVER STREET. Silver Street is located seven mile "west of Newberry on the Columbii *'"'1 Greenville division of tin; South ern railway. For many years, and in fa el, until recently, it was a flaj station with only one small stor< which was run mainly for the plan tat ion of the owner. Recently new life and energy aiu faith in tlie place have heen put ir action and now it is a centre of lrad< :""1 ('"iiini<Tcial activity. The South ' in has erected a nice passenger am treight depot and has a regulai agency with a telegraph otliee. i1 h a fine farming section tribu fory to Sliver Street (here is m reason why ii should not he a good trading place. The young men who are in business there are active and energetic and have faith in (heir town and are showing their failh hy I heir works. Arrangements will he made io buy cotton and this will bring trade. The Herald and News in this issue ( resents a brief resume of the business enterprises of the young town and of the merchants. There is already a good school. This is a community in which should be estahlish?!' <he high schools provided hy the legislature. A Lutheran congregation has been "'-ani/ed and a handsome church building will be erected soon. I he 11 era h I and News extends ill?e-l \vi>hcs i..

I lie election for president of iht ( lilted Stales, and in I his for Siali "llieers. will l,e liel.l next Tuesday. <M course, -n far as the Stale election I> concerned i| is merely a for mal matter as ihe selections wen made in the primary. It is verv im port ant. however, tliat a full Demo craiic vote should be polled. The lie publicans in congress use as an argu liiciil lor culling down our represen 'ation the small vote which is usual!' polled ill the general election. Be sides thai j| js important that w should give Mr. Bryan as large popular vole as possible, and in niak "P 1 he total lice vole ??f Soul! Carolina will he counted. 11 is hop ?d. therefore, that every Denioera will lake (lie time and the trouble f -o 1,1 Ihe polls next Tuesday and cas his ballot. 'I'he New York Herald has bee priming estimates of ||,e result fn president and about two weeks ag The Herald and News presented a estimate of the New York Herald, j new estimate was printed on Ihe 2(>t of I ''is month. In order that thos who desire to make calculations an guess at results may gratify thn wo l,ril" last est i mat made up hy the New Yor Herald. The Herald we believ claims lo be independent but 'this yea has decided Republican leanings. it will be seen that the Herald' estimate gives Mr. Tal'l 280 vole which are IIS more than are necesar.v. It lakes 212 votes to elect president. If New York should b eat tied bv the Democrats then ur der this estimate the Republican would lack one of a majority. The Herald gives the Democrali party only lot! voles. The Democrat claim Indiana, Kentucky, vand N< braska as certain but those withot New York would not give Democrali victory. 11 seems that all of the ci timales which are made place Ne York in the position of holding tli balance of power, and either party t win must carry New York. The ha tie is being waged in that Slate fit week. Some people claim that Mr. Bp nn will have a landslide, so t speak, in the west. If |,e should, < course, his election is assured eve if lie loses New York. Rut we gi\ you the Herald's estimate and 1< you figure out the result to suit vou sel f.
