H. Hinnant and S. J. Kinsler. The matter of whether the provision allowing new entries applies to the second primary in case a candidate withdraws after the first primary came up and tie committee ruled that there could be no withdrawal a ter the first primary. The following motion by R. B. Caldwell, of Chester, was adopted: "Resolvedy Tliat it is the judgment of this committee that in case of no nomination in the first primary only ; the two highest in the first primary shall run over in the second primary, j That there is no provision in tue rules ' for withdrawals between the first primary and the second primary and that the committee must enter on tiie ticket for the second primary tne two receiving the highest vote in the first primary and only t^ese two." This ruling settled the question which came up from Ureenwooa. in that county Jones and Strum are in [ the second race for the legislature; and Jones has withdrawn and GreeD-1 wood wanted to know whether Jones could withdraw. Under the Caldwell ; resolution tne committee rules that ; Jones cannot withdraw and his name goes on the ticket for the second pri-! i mary. j In Berkeley County. |i A similar question affecting some'] , t-> RorL-oiuv fonntv. wijere ?

The new discovery, Croxone, overcomes all such disorders because it removes the very cause of the trouble. It soaks right into the kidneys, through the walls and linings; cleans out the little filtering glands and cells, and gives the kidneys new strength to do their work properly. It neutralizes and dissolves the poisonous uric acid substances that lodge in the joints and muscles, causing rheumatism; and makes the kidneys filter and sift out all the poisonous waste matter and president of the Baptist State ! convention; Jno.
