Heyward £ felt In reoeivlng 1 96 per cent and In per cent of the vote of his home county, and that he would cherish the endorsement of Colleton County as the most precious heritage for his children and his children’s children. This en dorsement by the people who knew him best was sufficient answer to the slanderous charges made against him In the second primary. Like a stone wall It stands In refutation of any slanders which had been used against him. He referred to tlie distinguished honor of being the Chief Magistrate of a State which we South Carolinians believe to be the grandest State In the Union, the Slate of the Rutledges, the Middletons and of the Pinckneys, of Marlon, and of Sumter, of Calhoun, Me Du fim, and of Haync. of Barnard E Dee, Mart Uanr, the Bald Kag.c of I ELgeflek), and of Wade Hampton, whom name will ever be a household | word hi South Carolina.

Hat a wholesale case of poiauclBg of this kind occurred la Columbia Thursday night Little Mlm Annie Erwin Me Feet In celebrat ing her 10th anniversary bad a number of little friends to spend the afternoon with her. There were several churns of cream, but strange to my not one of the 40 little ones partook of the chocolate. Later about 10 or 12 grown people ate some of this kind. All of them were poisoned. Mrs. Mo- Feat suffered more than any of the other, and was really in a critical con dition, but was better yesterday Among others who were made sick were Miss Lula Williams, Miss Lillian Irby and Dr. C. J. Oliveros. Careful inquiry developed the fact that none of the cream was infected except the chocolate.—Columbia State. The Old and the New. Governor McSweeney Wednesday night sent the following telegram to Capt. D. C. Heyward at Walterboro: “Permit me to extend my con gratulations and best wishes. May your administration as governor be successful in every particular, as I be lieve It will be. “M. B. McSwbeney. CAPT. HBYWARD’S REPLY. Walterboro, 3. C., Sept, 11. iglilQov; M. D.

M C In nitomenUng en toB enl Jensfipn. UwagncnNnml editor ef Urn Atlanta Jonmal saye Tto above elr- rular esnt out to Urn farmers of Kortk RfoUne will rmelt le great good if they will oo-operate in soiling their seed U.D asaaon as they did last year. The farmers In all the other southern states can do likewise and oo-operaUun In the future sale of our farm products should be the watchword from this time on. It makes no difference whether we bold county or mill Us mam meeUngs, let each individual cotton raleer determine to price his seed to the mill people for not less than 25 to 30 cents per bushel, and stand steadfast on that demand until the price Is paid. We won’t have to bold them long at present prices of oil, meal and hulls. Cruel Employment. The Savannah News says the sub ject of child labor in Southern mill Is one that is receiving just now consider able attention from the Northern press. Revelations on this subject, which are occasionally made, are not grateful to Southern pride nor is a visual inspection of the system in operation a very pleasing experience. In Met it makes a mao sick at heart to see boys and girls of less than ten years of age—sometimes several years less wearing out their young lives In the operation of looms and spindles, without any opportunity to secure the advantagto of education or the healthy freedom that ought to he a child's portkNi.

Thus It was that by oummun Imputar the men. women and children accepted the Idea of tender ing a serenade to their distinguished fellow dUzen, and that from every section of the county there should have assembled the gallant sons of Colleton, desirous of evincing by their presence In Walterboro and by their participation in the serenade the great pleasure and gratification which they felt In having their favorable son chosen for the high office to which he had Just been elected. The spirit of enthusiasm was not confined solely to the citizens of Colle ton, for throughout the assembly could be discerned faces familiar in Dorchester, Charleston and Beaufort counties. That so large and represen tative a gathering should be the out* come of a practically Impromptu effort without opportunity for much public notice, Is only another evidence qf the pooularity of Capt. Heyward where he Is best known and most loved. The vote of Colleton county may be accep ted as an earnest of how well be stands at his home, and It Is this practically unanimous vote of hit neighbors which Capt.
