Items of Local Interest
? Every Democratic voter of
the township should see to it that
his name is on the precinct club
roll, which will he found at the
store of McElhancy & Co. fo
vote in the primary election,
m L one's name must be on the roll
r* by August 20.
?City Clerk McElhaney now
has a supply of dog collars and
tax tags to issue to dog: owners
of the town. The tax is $1.00
for males and $2.00 for females.
The officers of the town have
instructions to see to it that
every canine wears a tax paid

?There has been a stay of
execution In the case of Love
Robinson, the young negro from
Fort Mill township, who was
convicted of murder at the last
term of court and sentenced to
be hanged on August 28. The
stay is because of a notice of
appeal serven on me solicitor by
J. P. Ilollis, Esq.?Yorkville
Enquirer.
?The editor a few days ago
visited the smith shop of Mr. A.
A. Young and while there witnessed
the resetting, or "shrinking"
of a set of buggy tires on a
cold tire setter. Py this method
the the tire is not removed from
the wheel and is not heated.
The wheel is firmly fastened in
the machine and by operating a
powerful lever the tire is grasped
by a set of clamps and gradually
closed up. Mr. Young ordinarily
resets a set of tires with this
machine in twenty minutes.
? It is reported on the streets
that an effort will be made next
spring to secure a new ball diamond
for the local ball team.
The placing of a telephone line
across the present ground has
rendered it well-nigh useless as
a ball ground. The new diamond
will, if secured, be located on
the knoll beyond the present play
ground. At this point it is said
by the ball players a much better
ground than the present one can
be had. A public subscription
will De taken lor the erection of
a stand, bleachers and fence. It
is believed that sufficient money
for these improvements will be
forthcoming, as a number of citizens
have expressed a willingness
to contribute liberally to the
cause.
Praise For the S. C. Soldiers.
The Chattanooga News, in an
article Friday anent the encampment
at Chattanooga, has the
following to say, in part, of the
1st Regiment of infantry from
this State:
The South Carolina boys have
^ about the best equipment of any
militia regiment that has been at
the camp. In speaking of their
equipment Gen. Potts, commander
of the camp, was very complimentary.
They have the conical
tents similar to those used in
the regular army, the new regulation
rifles, each man has a
portable cot which, while very
comfortable, can be folded up into
a space three feet long and
three inches in diameter. The
mounted officers have their own
horses with them, and they all
maintain the reputation of South
Carolinians for <?Yrr?llnnt
manship. They have the regular
army horse epuipment which
is in the best of condition. Each
man also has two uniforms, the
khaki and the olive drab, with
hats and caps to match. They
also have a supply of shelter
tents, each man carrying half of
one. In case of a storm they
button two of the halves together,
making a tent large enough to
accommodate two men.
They have the regulation
hospital corps?four surgeons
and twelve enlisted men -equipped
with a complete set of surgical
instruments sufficient to perform
any kind of operation.
There are 610 oflicers and men
in the regiment, twelve companies
and an exceptionally good
band. In fact, the entire agreement
is in as good condition a*
could possibly be expected and
it would be hard to imagine a
jpore gentlemanly lot of men.

Blease and Caughmen.
Before a crowd estimated at
' 300 people Hon. Cole L. Blease,
candidate for governor, and Hon.
! Banks L. Caughman, candidate ;
for reelection as railroad commissioner,
spoke from the stand I
in Confederate park Saturday
afternoon. The visit of these
gentlemen to Fort Mill was in 1
response to an invitation to all
the members of the State cam!
paign party by the local Domoi
cratic club. The meeting Saturday
was presided over by lion.
J. R. Haile, who with a few well
chosen words introduced the
tiers.
Mr. Blease was the first j
1 speaker. He began his remarks ;
[ by citing his record as a Democrat.
He was elected to the |
legislature when a young man ;
i and later to the State senate. !
Had served for several years jus ;
{president pro tern of the senate, '
'and in 1900 and 1904 was elected
j a delegate to the national Democratic
convention. Had served
; both as county and city attorney
of Newberry. Attacked the
Ansel administration for its exi
travagance, giving figures to i
! show that in 8 years the State ap- i
propriations had almost doubled. (
Criticised Governor Ansel's ac1
tion in appointing a negro to'
; office, saying that if he was!
i elected governor no negro would
ever carry a commission with
his name attached to it. This
! remark brought forth hearty
applause from the crowd. The '
speaker favored education, but
thought the higher schools were
, receiving too much State jiid.
Only a small percent of the children
of the "common" people
were able to attend the higher
, institutions. Was opposed to
i the education of negroes with
tax money paid by the white
people. (Applause) He favored
the abolishment of the bureau
J of imigration. ("Do away with
' it," said a voice from the crowd.)
It had proven a worthless ex-,
| pense to the State. Last year's
icAfiuncnce wnn ine witteKinu
J had cost the State some $16,000
' and not one of the immigrants
brought over were earning an
honest living in South Carolina
today. Was of course in favor
of good roads and other improvements
to benefit the commonwealth.
Mr. Blcase had spoken
perhaps 30 minutes when a rain
came on and he was compelled
to close his remarks. He was
given long and hearty applause.
Mr. Caughman sought rc!
election upon his record. He
( had put forth every effort to fill
the position to the satisfaction
of all the people. Had personally
i visited many points in the State
where additional railroad facilities
were needed and had al
ways recommended and ordered
improvements where he deemed
them necessary. Mr. Caughman
was also given a good round of
applause when he closed.
The audience was in a recep,
tivc mood and gave a patient
hearing to each of the candidates.
It was a happy, good-natured
I crowd of voters anil every one
i present was in a generous frame
of mind, for both candidates
were given a good measure of
applause and cheers.
Messrs. Blease and Caughman
left on the early train Sunday
lor Winnsboro to join the campaign
party on Monday.
How to Catch Musk-Rats.
Make an ordinary plank bo.t
: three or four feet long, nail a
: head over one end like a bee-gum
' and bury the box in the ground
11 with head end down on the bank
j of stream, letting the head end
, of box go deep enough into the
i ground to be a little below the
water in the stream, the top end
i being level with the ground, then
cut a little trench from stream
j to box in order that the water
' may cover the bottom of box.
By doing this the rats think,
I bottom of box being covered
" with water, that they can dive
and goon into the stream and
1 will therefore jump into the box.
