With representatives of the largest cot- j ton lirms located here, Bamberg is surely , in position to pay the very highest prices ? for cotton.

Just a little ahead of everybody in style: our collars and cuffs at Byrd's. The county Democratic executive committee, of Charleston, upon the protest of Mr. Jervey, recounted the votes cast fbr sheriff in the recent primary, but it did not change the result.

Last Monday was the first Monday ami salesday, but there were no public sales, and few people came to town. The Supervisor had his office open to pay the salaries of county officers, and the "township board of pensions met aud organized. The supervisors of registration were in session and issued some certificates. Shirts any size and price at Byrd's. We have had so many calls for copies of last week's issue containing the election returns that we reprint the table in this issue. This is the official vote as dehv the countv Democratic execu-1 tive committee, and everybody should keep the paper as a matter of future reference. These papers will no doubt be valuable in the election two and lour years from now. See our lin^ of suits that came in today?beauties?no joke, at Byrd's. Young John Besinger, who was shot at Midway on Tuesday, the day of the primary, is getting along nicely, and hopes of hts recovery are now entertain<\i. We understand there will be no prosecutions in case he recovers. It is a deplorable affair, many of the parties being connected by blood or marriage, and it is sincerely hoped by all that Mr. Besinger will recover and the matter be settled."

So he went over ami got Deputy Sheriff Felder Hunter to assist him, and thev arrested the negro, and he was put in jail. Sunday afternoon Sheriff Outzs came down and carried Clark back to Edgefield Monday morning to stand his trial. There was a "reward of $50 offered for the capture of Clark, and Mr. Jordan returned to Edgefield with Sheriff Outzs to collect the reward. f . , v ' - - ' -W .

Copeland was held before the Master last Saturday. Mr. Nimmons Hutto, of Govan, was found dead in his bed last Saturday morning. An inquest was held over the body, and the jury rendered a verdict that he came to his death from the effects of alcoholism. It apppears that deceased had been drinking heavily for some time, and last Friday night he took some laudnuni and also some whiskey to quiet his nerves. His wife was up with him until about one o'clock, aud she thought he had dropped off to sleep. Being very tired, she went to sleep and did not wake up till the next morning, and upon going to where her husband was sleeping, she found him dead in bed. having breathed his last some time during the night.

Magistrate's Court. Tuesday afternoon Magistrate Ray j heard the case of Andrew Bennett against Darling Curry, Moss Curry and Skottowe! Robinson for entry after notice.

Darliug Curry, the woman, was found guilty and sentenced to pay a tine of $7.o0 or spend twenty days in jail. Moss Curry was sentenced to*twenty days on the chain gang or j *7.bo riiie.

To the Democratic Voters of Bamberg County?In the primary election just ended, you gave me a vote for which I feel deeply grateful, and for which I beg to return my heartfelt thanks, and trust that in the second race between Mr. Joe J. Brabham and myself, you will come to my support in sufficient numbers to elect me Auditor and Superintendent of Education for Bamberg count v. R.~ \V. D. Rowell. September 3d, 1900. A Voice for Rowell. One of the most important offices to be tilled by the voters of Bamberg county, at the approaching primary, is the otilce of School Commissioner and Auditor. Among the candidates for this office we specially single out and heartily commend, to the fair consideration of the voters, Mr. R. W. D. Rowell. We do so in the first place because Mr. Rowell is a competent business man. That is what the office requires: that is what the people should demand. And again, the said candidate is specially qualified for this office. He is a bookkeeper, exact and painstaking, as his books in the railway office, where he is agent, andfin the job office, where 'he is printer and publisher, will abundantly show. As Mr. Rowell was once a school l.imcolf liiu ?.\ in that LClltlKl UiUlCV<?t ?.... field eminently qualities him for the particular and responsible work of superin! tending the public schools of Bamberr I county. > Again, we commend Mr. Rowell because lie is a consistent church member. 1 and a God-fearing man. That is the best f of all. Though not rich in this world's " goods, he has a character that is dearei 1 to him than wealth or position. We believe, therefore, that if Mr. * Rowell is elected, he will elevate the e office he holds, will be exact and careful in all business pertaining thereto, and will give entire satisfaction to every - reasonable citizen in Bamberg county.
