If you want a pair of good shoes Levi has them. t The fact that all of the shining lights al of the Republican party are support- p porting Haskell is enough to cause the 'white people to stop and reflect before vot -ing for himi.

Complaints arc made that the bridges onB P ocotaligo causeway, near Manning, are in al a dangerous condition, and we are told that several horses have sustained slight injuries by getting their feet in holes in the bridges. 1 Special attention is called to the magnifi- F cent line of ladies' dress goods at Moses al Levi's.

There are several t boxes, and unless you put your tickets in a the proper boxes your vote is thrown away, o as the law prohibits the managers from counting tickets that are in the wrong boxes. For instance, 'if you vote for governor in the box intended for county officers, that vote must be thrown -away and not counted. ti M. Levi has just received a car load of d: fine fiour which he offers at Charleston ta prices. For several days past a rumor has been floating around town that the Independents have a county ticket which will be sprung on the morniing of the election: therefore r every man before he casts his ballot had i helter read the names on his ticket careful l, as you might find two or three names on t'he ticket that did not receive the regular Democratic nomination.

Sumter county, while on his way home from Sumter that night, ~ was attacked on the public road by three men, two of them supposed to be white. One of them caught his horse and the other two pointed pistols at his head and ordered him to dismount. They then rifled his pockets and robbed him of twenty dollars. He had a few dollars in silver money which they did not get hold of. Last night about nine o'clock the resi- le dents of the southern portion of the town tla were somewhat startled by the cries of "stop e hief" nd the firing of a pistol. Ii was as nough to make one think that the famous Rtube Burrows had come to life and invaded tii our usually quiet towvn. It seems that one Cfle McLeod, a negro. was arrested yes- ~ tr iday afternoon charged with breaking in- a a ouse, and he was placed in the guard i house for safe keeping until the necessary it warrant could be brought to lodge him in jail. When the deputy came with the war rnt last night, he 'was taken out of the I guard house and on his way to the jail, hel gave the officers the slip and escaped. Schwerin & Co., of Sumter, ask that their Carendon friends get their prices before gi buying elsewhere. They claim that good a ney will thus be saved. Panola is solid for the Democratic ticket.

Burgess, of Charleston, rmerly of Summerton, was married yes. rday to Miss Lottie Henderson, of Wal rboro. Mr. Sam China, of Greeleyville, says that will vote for Haskell if by so doing he nks South Carolina into hell. How hell hly inclined! Dr. W. B. Niles, a veterinary surgeon of ylumbia, was at Panola yesterday examin g diseased stock, and he pronounced two )rses belonging to Capt. D. W. Brailsford fiicted with glanders and farcy. The Haskellites of Marion county nomi ded a ticket composed of Republicans and iite men. Since the ticket became public e following nominees, who are white en, declined to allow their names to be ed: Dr. J. J. Weatherly, T. B. Hayes, and D. McLucas.

Every vote not cast for Colonel tackhouse is that much gain to Ed ,nd Das. a ke yonr choice The Clarendon Negroes Endorse the Has kell Tieket. To-day, the day advertised for the Repub lican grand rally in Manning. resulted in a small crowd of negroes assemling around a stand erected under the oaks (n the court house square. A band consisting of a lifi., a bass and a snare drum, furnished the urn sie and did duty for applauding the speak ers whenever one of the "distingtisheid gemmen" on the stage would give tLe signal. On the hand bills advertising this meeting were the names of a great many colonels, majors, &c., and of course a large crowd was expected, but not until the drums sounded as a signal for the meeting to commence was the very slim attendance noticeable. County Chairman Svfax Milton called the meeting' to order. and requested the Rev. A. E . Tor rence to open the me'eting with prayer. The chairman introduced as the first speaker A. S. Boston, who aired his devo tion to "de party" that produced such a man as Patrick Henry, the man that pro claimed to the State, "Give me liberty or give me death;" and then he informed his hearers of the number of white friends he had; and that he would vote for laskell just to show Mr. Tillman that he could vote. The next speaker was Julius DuRant, who was introduced by the chairman as another subject from an educational institution. This speaker followed very much in the train of Boston. and wound up by saying that he thought he would vote for Haskell, but if he did not he would not vote at all. Post Master Stewart was next introduerd. He made a speech of about thirty minutes in length. He used good language, but it was Greek to the majority of the audience. He closed by reading the address of the Re publican committee, and said that it would be submitted to them for their endorse muent. The chairman then came forward to ex plan his position. He had not seen the iddress until to-day, but he did not favor Haskell or Tillman, and he had not bad time to give the address the considera- i tion it should have. If they did endorse he address and vote for Haskell, he would ot be responsible, and wanted it distinctly anderstood that he woald wipe his hands froi any iespousibility whatever. When he Alosed Ed. h. Deas, the Republican candi late for congress, addressed the audience. ,d as he was the only speaker from abroad is coming forward was the cause of a slight >utburst of applause. He started his speech by alluding to his isappointment at the other gentleman not being able to be present, and said his own oadition was very much out of fix, owing to the number of speeches recently deliver d. He then proceeded to pour hot shot into the white people generally, and refer red to the late Confederacy as the bastard government. He pitched into Captain Till man and eulogized Haskell. He advised is hearers to vote for Haskell as it would be the entering wedge for them to get a foot old, just as the Democrats did when they ran the Carpenter and Butler and the Green ind Delaney tickets. The Democrats did not succeed when they first made these fus tons, but their success came as soon as they got a foot hold, and when that was accom phshed they uprooted the Republican par ty, and now is the opportunity for the Re publicans to profit by the example. He spoke about two hours, and at the close of his speech, te Ilaskel ticket was en or)sed. The meeting was very quiet and orderly. and the negroes apparently seemed to take very little interest in it. But they have now got their instructions to vote for Has kell, and next Tuesday they will attempt. to do so. Charming people, these exceptional peo ple !

Do you think that that bit of human nature which you'call "I" is different from the other parcels of human nature? "But you don't know my case." Good friend, i rninety-nine out of a hun dred cases, the causes are the same-im pure blood-and thats why "Golden Medi cal Discovery" cures ninety-nine out of ev ery hundred. You may be the exception. And you may not. But would you rather be the exception, or would you rather be well? If you're the exception it costs you nthing. you get your money back-but suppose it cures you?

Crosson, county chairman of Lexington county, by Congressman Dibble, to be read at to-day's campaign meettng: ORtANEao, S. C., Oct. 25. -D. M. Crcs son, Chairman Demoeratic Executive Con nittee, Lexington County.-Dear Sir: The I sickness of niv son will prevent me from C attending the mueeting of my fellow-citizens of Lexington, in accordance with your kind invitation; but I feel a deep interest in the present condition of our political affairs, anid I therefore write you some reflections, t which appear to me to be appropriate to the occasion. There is an unfortunate division in the Democratic ranks. Let us iealize this, as ien and as Democrats; and let us cease 1 calling each other hard names: and endeav or to avert greater evils than those which al ready impend over us. It is no longer a matter of preference for one man ovec another. It is not simply who J shall be governor of South Carolina for the I next two years. It is the more serious issue of the unity of the Democratic party in our tate. What will bring us together again? That a is the question which we must solve, in a t patriotic and honest way, as a matter of di ty to our State. our families, and ourselves. Let us consider it without prejudice or pas- I ion. One thing is certain, we will not assist in d reuniting the Democracy by abusing each Aher. This will only aggravate the evil, as t has caused it. There are good men on each side of this unfortunate issue, and in he near future it will require their united e :rforts to save Scith Carolina in greater U inergencies than the one now upon us. Oa the 4th day of November next the bal- V ot is to decide several momentous ques- i ions. A great many consider that the most ] mportant of these questions is to be settled it the State boxes. Never was there a more langerous error than this. I assure you rom a knowledge of the situation in all its I a phases, acquired in the position where your 0 mntfrages have assisted to place m, that the struggle which means more of weal or of bvoe to the indivivual citizen, the struggle 0 which will affect most seriously the tl iomes of the people, their comfort, their n ieurity and their prosperity is the contest b t the congressional boxes. I have therefore tddressed myself first to this subject, be- a :ause it is in danger of being overlooked in i he absorbing interest which suriounds P Sutte issues. I have only to add, in emphasis of my issertions, that we lost control of the House f liepresentatives at the last election by il reason of Democratic apathy or division in tl ,wo or three Southern congressional dis ,ricts, and in consequence we are burdened ith the oppression of the McKinley tariff, e ind are threatened with the infamous elec- h ion bill, both disastrous to our continued b prosperity. Uay we not learn front this a lesson for the coming election, and there- . fore do our first duty as Democrats by giv- 1 ing to the Democratic nominee for congress S ur unanimous and earnest support. Let fi aothing prevent this, for the hour is one of peril, and the danger signal must be an swered promptly by every patriot, if he re gards his obligation as a citizen and his duty [ to his own home and fireside. t] And now, as to State pohties. There are two State tickets in the field; one is the Democratic ticket, and the otber is an Inde- - pendent ticket. I will not impugn the mo- 1 tives of those who have instituted this In- o dependent movement, but I shall simply g state some reasons why I shall vote for the regular Democratic ticket. First, because I am a Democrat. d secondly, because the election of the reg- r ular Deuocratic ticket maintains the su premacy of the Democratic orgapization in our State, and the great mass of the Democ racy can be trusted to rectify in the future t such wrongs as may have been done in the 1 present campaign. Thirdly, because the success of the Inde- 6 pendent candidates wvould inflhet a vital alow to Democratic ascendancy in South Carolina, and would furnish tin inducement for disregard of party fidelity in the future. Fourthly, because the Independent move- I ment is supported by the Itepublican party organization in South Carolina, as a mueansI of permanently dividing the Democracy,e and thus giving the ltadicals an opportuni-c ty to regzain power in the future. Fifthly, because if the regular Democrat ie ticket be elected our erring brothers will be again in the Democratic 'fold when the: excitement of the election is over, but if the Independents should be successful they have no fold to which to invite us, for a largea proportion of their supporters-are Repub- f licans, and we wvill not affiliate with them in I politics, for wve are Democrats. ['inally, let me urge forbearance and calm ness in the present crisis. Ab>use of men and their nmotives never strengthenso& cause; if I expect to influence a friend by argu ment 1 must concede the sincerity of his 3 opinions, however much -I may differ with him in my views. Threats and attempts at intimidation will not be successful against men who have been oar comrades in heroic struggles in the past for Demnocratig suprem ac. We can only do our own duty as Dem- 1I ocrats, trusting that the sober second-thought l1 of our erring brothers will bring them to union with us under the Democratic banner, in the troublous days before us, when we will have to act together for our party and 0 our State.

The time for speaking ias passed; the time for action has ar ived. But the mieetings held or londay showed undoubtedly the !rift of the political current, and fore hadowed the certain triumph of the egular Democratic State ticket-the icket nominated by the Septenber onvention, the only ticket which the )emocratic voters can support, and tpon the success of which the unity if the party and the supremacy oJ he white man in the government oJ iouth Carolina absolutely depend. The meetings were all one way, some of the speakers were intensely >itter in their denunciation of the laskell movement, but all were very arnest in their pleas for party unity ,nd party success. No other Inde endent movement in South Carolina as been treated with so great consid ration or has been more deeply de bored. The Haskell Independents re regarded as raore dangerous than he Independents who have heretofore ttempted to disrupt the Democratic arty, because by their intelligence, onesty, and courage they are more angerous to the future of the party nd the State, and because it will re uire the united efforts of all her sons to save South Carolina in greater niergencies than the one now upon s." The choice that the Democratic oter will have to make in this contest i not simply a choice between men. 'he integrity of the Democratic par r and the unity of the white people f South Carolina are the great issues t stake. The wise course, the patri tic course to be pursued in this cri s is not to drive the Haskell nien out E the party forever, but to bring iem back under the Democratic ban er, and to teach such a lesson at the allot-box on Tuesday next as will be watning to all who may be disposed i the future to set up their personal refereuces against the will of the arty. There is no time for speech-making. ig. The few remaining days before 1e election must be devoted to hard, neeasing political work. Look after very Democratic voter, find out where e stands and how be will vote. If he e weak in the faith, strengthen hin. r he be halting between two opin mns, show him that his duty to the tate can best be discharged by his delity to the party. If he say that e is inclined to support the Inde endent ticket because of his person [ preference for the candidates on iat ticket, impiess the fact upon im that it is not the election cf a andidate, but the preservation of the aegrity and supremacy of the Dem cratic party for which we are strug ling. Reclaim the backsliders, trengthen the weak, encourage the espondeut, succor the helpless, and ally the voters from one end of the tate to the ather in support of the nly Democratic ticket in the field Ie ticket nominated by the Septem er convention.-News and Courier.
