engaged in clerical work.
The appearance of the lobby
of the Fort Mill postoffice is decidedly
more pleasing to the eye
in the dress of fresh paint and
varnish to which it was treated
a few days ago.
The Times this week carries a
little more than five columns of
home advertising. If the paper
is worth anything to the community
it deserves better patronage
of the town's business interests.
L. M. Chance, a former
citizen of Fort Mill who moved
to Pineville, N. C., some years
ago, where he has been engaged
in the livery business for some
time, is closing out his business
with the view of moving to the
West.
The Rev. W. A. Hafner, pastor
of the Presbyterian church, returned
to Fort Mill Monday
evening, after an absence of
several days in Chesterfield,
where he had been assisting at a
series of special services in the
Presbyterian church.
The meeting which is in
progress at the Fort Mill Baptist
church is attracting large audiences
to hear the helpful sermons
which are being delivered by the
Rev. Dr. Miller, of Greenville.
The meeting will continue for
several days, with daily services
in the forenoon and evening.
Saturday afternoon the streets
of Fort Mill presented a scene of
activity unusual in mid-summer
' - and a number of merchants report
the best day's business for
several weeks. Special sales
were in progress at several stores
and this fact doubtless influenced
many farmers and others to come
to town.
Governor Ansel will be asked
to pardon Charley White, the
Fort Mill negro who was recently
convicted of killing Will Tillman,
another negro, and given two
years on the chaingang. A
petition praying the governor
to pardon White was circulated
lur siK"ULurt*s in ron Mill
Saturday morning:.
Officers Potts and Coltharp
brought to Fort Mill Monday
afternoon from the saw mill of
Clyde Pettus, a few miles south
of town, a negro man named
Riley Brown and locked him up
in the station house. Brown is
wanted by the authorities of
Fairfield for a misdemeanor he
is charged with having committed
at Ridgeway some months
ago.
The announcement is made
that there will be no services,
other than Sunday school, in the
Fort Mill Presbyterian church
next Sunday. The Rev. Mr.
Hafner, pastor of the church,
will preach to the congregation
of Tirzah church in the forenoon
of that day and in the afternoon
will deliver a lecture to the Bible
class.
Ernest Whitesell, assistant
agent at the freight depot of the
Southern railway in Fort Mill,
who had the misfortune to get
his left foot so badly mangled in
an accident in the freight yards
in Spartanburg last fall as to
necessitate amputation at the
ankle, anticipates the necessity
of having more of the injured
limb taken off in the next few
weeks, on account of the wound
not having satisfactorily healed.
Twenty-five years ago Hugh
Moore was a well known farmer
of this section. One dav he
dropped out of sight and for a
j long time his family thought
him dead, but he was very much
alive and \\<as making considerable
headway in a new home he
had established in the West,
x Saturday he paid his first visit
to this section since he suddenly
left hem a quarter of a century
ago. Mr. Moore is now living in
Greenville county.
YORK PRIMARY LISTS CLOSE
IN TWO WEEKS FROM FRIDAT
Exactly two weeks from Friday,
the Democratic primary
lists for York county will close,
according to the announcement
of the executive committee, and
the voters will then know from
whom thev will have to choose
for county officers and members
of the house of representatives.
The last announcements of candidates
must be in by noon of
Friday. August 12. along with
the entrance fee to secure a
place on the official ballot to be
used in the selection of party
nominees on August 30. The
rules of the party require that
the nominee for each office re
ceive a majority of the vote cast
in the primary, otherwise the
two candidates receiving the
largest vote must enter a second
primary, which is always held
two weeks from the date of the
first primary. Should a second
primary be necessary, it will be
held on September 13.
The official canvass of the
county by the various candidates
begins at Blairsville on August
13 and closes at Yorkville or
August 27. Successors to all of
the county officeis except the
sheriff and clerk of court, whe
hold over for two years, as does
the State senator, are to be
chosen, and there is the prospect
of an interesting campaign,
as there is only one of the present
officers without oppositior
up to this time. There are thre<
candidates for treasurer, four
for auditor, two for superintendent
of education and three foi
county supervisor. The incum
bents of these offices are, re
spectivelv, Harry Neil, J. J
Hunter, T. E. McMackin am
C. F. Gordon. Two new count}
commissinnprs nrr> also h<
elected as is a judge of probate
j but nobody in the eastern sectior
of the county seems to knov
who the candidates for thes<
offices are.
In the race for the Legislature
there are announced in The Time:
six candidates. York county \
apportionment of members ii
the house of representatives i:
four, and unless there are othei
candidates yet to enter the rac<
only two of the number seekinj
the honor will be defeated. 1
is worthy of note that there i
not so far a single Rock Hill can
didate for the Legislature, thougl
it is possible that Mayor John 1
Roddey's friends may preva
upon him to become a candidate
