In the race for Governor, Cole L. Blease, of Newberry, has maintained a lead over his nearest, opponent,- C. C. Featherstone, of l^aurens.

Duncan sixth. The total vote ip the first primary- will no doubt reach 105,400, some what to the surprise of many who expected a much lighter vote. The rains of the Bee-Dee and Piedmont apparently had little effect in keep ing the voters from the polls. Spar tanburg was the banner county, poll ing over 8,000 votes. The voting was Tightest in the coast counties where the terrific nUJHr'bf Monday had put the n)ads'Tn such condition as to de tain many from the polls. In the race for Governor, Cole L. Blease has 33,;164, while C. C. Feath erstone has L’0,P04, a lead of 3,400, the latter having more than a 4,000 lead over Thos, G. McLeod.

' T.ast Wednesday was fhe twenty- six earthquake which shook Charleston, causing damages to property aggre gating more fjpan' $5,000,(100 and the loss of iwenty odd people, killed outright/and the injury of several hundred, many of whom died from their injuries. All the older people remember what an awful night it was. The following from the Char leston Post at>otit the earthquake will be read with interest: The shock occured on a Tuesday- night, at 9:54 o'clock. On the Friday morning previous a slight shock was felt by some people in Charleston and Summerville, but the people generally ridiculed the idea of an earthquake until the great shock came which left no dpubt of a dis turbance of the kind having occured The terrible visitation gave no warn- ing There was a sudden rumbling noise, a puff of breeze, causlrtg the leaves to rustle and then the ground lifted and lowered with a wave like motion and the buildings tottered and fell, burying hundreds in the ruins while those who could do so made hasty retreats for the parks and open places, where many lived for weeks after the great shock. To add to the terrors of the occa sion, several fierce fires occurred in the overturning of lamps. The en gines hud difficulty in getting to the tires op account of the debris in the streets and then some of the horses of the fire department forgot their tiaining and escaped from the sta tion houses. The fires were however extinguished in the several secti uis, without contributing very materially to the losses of property values. The cries of the negroes who be came h.vstericaJwmany believing that the day o£"fudcment had come added no little to the terrors of the occasion With the scenes of havoc and dis tress on all sides robbery of resi dences and stores was consequently occurring and between protecting lives and property the police officers had no small task on their hands, WPh the congested crowds on the parks and open places the sanitation f these qua iters l>ecame a problem o the health authorities In many wavs and times. Charles ton passed through an ordeal which few cities of the country had before endured. The terrors exceeded those of fires and cyclones which had sev- ral times laid a heavy hand upon Charleston aud to many, the scenes nd experiences of the earthquake were worst than those of war. Charleston lived through it all The city arose phoenix-like from tier ashes *und it was nut many months before the general evidences of the disaster were completely obliterat ed. A close inspection of many buildings today in Charleston reveals the presency of bolts, new plaster work and other work which bear m the outlines the story of the repairs of property and fhe rebuilding of I^ANDIT KILLED Made ai Atte»pt te Held Up Paueafer Train ei Western Read.

The night had brought to the Genrgta' mast ermn-tres the heaviest tain in years, Die precipita tion exceeding eight inches. At Ex- ley, a flag stop 16 mile* north, of Savannah, the loeOiriotive plunged into a washout, with .fatal results to engineer Fred Pierce and fireman Sam Dukes, colored. That no othef causalities occurred was probably due to the fact that No. 66 Is a very heavy Drain, carrying several Pull mans besides the regular comple ment of day coaches. t A (Teorgi* Cotemporary Pays a High TR’ibute to the Me* Who Carry the Mail..

As a matter of fact, the occupation reacts on the man with beneficial results.
