At the time of this writing the election lins not been held, but we are free to say that if the primary system is to be continued in South Carolina there will have to be changes and improvements. There is certainly room for work on ibis line. Bamberg county should give Heyward a large majority in the second primary, and we believe it will. Every friend of r his should be active in his behalf. Heyward is going to be the next governor of South Carolina, but his friends will do their duty just the same as if the result was in doubt. Let every man turn out and vote, and see that your neighbor vote$ as well. It is a matter of sincere congratulation that we at last have a candidate for governor in South Carolina against whom it has not been charged that there are any disreputable influences behind his candidacy. Such a man is D. C. Heyward, than whom there is no more high-toned, honorable gentleman in the State. He would reflect credit upon South Carolina as her chief executive, so let all our people turn out and give him a large majority at the second primary. The correspondents of the daily newspapers who reported the State and Senatorial campaign meetings seem to be of the opinion that the meetings as a whole were rather farcical. The Senatorial refciT' ' porter says only about ten per cent, of the voting population have attended the meetings. This seems to prove that the voters of the State are tired of campaign meetings, and we candidly believe it would be well to abolish them. Let the primary system be continued and leave every candidate to make his campaign in his own way. ELECTION NEWS. Heyward Leads for Governor and Latimer for U. S. Senator. Practically all the vote in the State in the several races has been accounted for up to early Thursday morning. A total vote of 82.626 is reported in the race for governor. The returns from about ten counties are as yet only partial and there is probably a total of 10,000 or more votes outstanding. In some of the minor races no returns are in from Hampton, Aiken, or Cherokee. On the face of the returns it appears that Latimer and Evans will surely make the second race for the senate and that Heyward and Ansel will run over for governor. Talbert is third man but Ansel is leading him nearly 2,000 votes. Jim Tillman is still in fourth place and is almost certain to stay there. For lieutenant governor Sloan leads out handsomely and will run over with % <5ary. For Secretary of State Wilson leads with several thousand to spare, and will make the second race with Gantt. Gunter is almost certainly nominated for attorney general, leading Stevenson nearly 4,000 votes. For comptroller general Walker and Jones will be in the second race, and it will be a close one. McMahan is probably renominated for superintendent of education, but his lead is only about 1,600 votes. Frost comes out of the race for adjutant general over 6,000 votes ahead of Boyd, with whom he will run over. Bcyd Evans leads the race for railroad commissioner, and will run over with either Caughman or Mobley, who are very close. "Wilborn is badly beaten. The summaries in all the contests are here given.

There has been bitter race feeling among them for years and trouble has frequenly broken out. A ball game this morning between the two factions caused excitement. As the crowd left the field hostilities commenced. Stones, bricks, clubs and other missiles were used. Two hundred persons immediately crushed together in a fighting mass. Twelve or fifteen shots were fired and it is reported one negro was shot, but he was taken from the field before the police arrived. The whites were victorious, driving the blacks from the field, and wounding a number of them. Several white people were badly hurt.

It 4I springs from deep love, which always desires to be first in the affection of ?, the one beloved. A lover, whether man a or maid, who is not susceptible to occa- > sional twinges of jealousy is not truly : In love. 1 While jealousy, considered with ref- | erence to its origin, is not an ignoble } emotion, it is frequently absurd in its , outbreaks. A father is sometimes up- > set with jealousy because he imagines t that his wife loves the children more r than she loves him. Mothers are frequently jealous of the husbands or wives of their daughters or sons. Wives become jealous of the sisters or moth- f ers of their husbands. No one is im- { mune against the little green bacilli of ( jealousy. 1 Generally the tears or frowns of 1 jealousy are swept away with a few ^ kind words and a caress, but there are ! ' j some unhappy persons whose jealousy , Is chronic and who make themselves \ ridiculous and annoying by their fits j and storms of Jealous passion. The i jealousy of such persons is beyond rca- : son. Indeed, It is a form of dementia 5 which begets every sort of violence. ( Pride is the strongest controller of jealousy. The theologians reckon pride among the seven deadly sins, but as a matter of fact pride is at the bottom of much of the virtuous action In the 5 world. Pride is the root of most brav- . ery, fortitude, courtesy, magnanimity, j humility and industry. Pride is the cs- | sential spirit of thorough breeding, and j In spite of being enumerated among 1 the deadly sins pride is not connected with turpitude.?San Francisco Bulle- ' tin. ' ! ONE MAN'S FINE CONCEIT. Massing: of Men, lie Say*, Means j Strength; of Women, Bonnets. "It's an odd thing about women," remarked Jones to his wife as he gettled himself for a special effort "Wo ad- < mire you Intensely in the individual. ? We adore you when taken singly, but It's a strange, sad fact that when a few hund:ea of you get together you lose distinction. A multitude of rare women brought together dn one building for a common cause are far from venerable. Look at Sorosis. The club is < undoubtedly made up of ideal mothers and wives, but one resolutely refuses to And it anything else than a convocation of bonnets. Earnest, intense women recruit the ranks of the Woman's Christian Temperance union, but its mass meetings only amuse the rest of the world. An exclusively feminine tea was never an object of envy to those who pass it by." "And what of you men?" suggested Mrs. Jones. "Are you all so much finer in a crowd?" "Undoubtedly," replied Jones. "It isn't open to dispute that, a 'gang' of men is at all times convincing. If it is only a mob with a rope looking up a criminal, the sight does not lack Impressiveness. The imagination plays about a 'smoker' and speculates as to the quality of the cigars and the stories. And a good share of the world's work has been done by men in mass for a purpose. Union to us is strength, and the novelist has always remained below when the door of the banquet hall was opened ror tne nnng out 01 the ladies."?New York Tribune. Small Things That Coant. It is said that Cfesar chose his generals according to the length of their forefingers in comparison with that of their second fingers. No man whose forefinger was over one-eighth of an Inch shorter than.his middle finger had a ghost of a show. Men with very short f arefingers are supposed to be effeminate. I believe it is so. Napoleon's generals were selected by their noses. Cromwell believed that bowlegged men made the best soldiers. Washington preferred men with high cheek bones. Receding foreheads were the rule among his generals. Alexander the Great judged men by their teeth, those having very large canines being preferred as commanders.?New York Press. Life In New York. Nobody living outside New York knows how difficult it has become in that city for people of moderate means to bring up their children in the love of genuine things. It is still done by many, but with increasing effort and only by dint of a strong will and an inheritance of the truest graces of life ? simplicity, the domestic affections nnd the love of nature and one's kind. It is to the cultivation of these graces that we must look for a rescue from the artificiality and the vulgarity of the pitiable circle in every American city known as "the smart set"? Century.
