Mayfleld is Sure to Win.
The Mirror, a labor paper published for
the textile workers of the Horse Creek
Valley, in Aiken county, and edited by
John Allen Mette, an Edgefield county
man, has the following to say of Hon. S.
G. Mayfield's candidacy for congress:
Hon. 8. G. Mayfield is the logical candidate
for congress in the second district
of- South Carolina. Every man who voted
for Theodore G. Croft is under obligations
to vote for Senator Mayfield, because he
gracefully withdrew from the race for
the short term in favor of the son of
Aiken county's foremost but lamented
citizen.
Senator Mayfield, who is honest, able
and honorable, is entitled to the Domination
from everv consideration of justice
and fairness. The world is ruled by sentiment,
and it was a noble sentiment that
prompted Senator Mayfield to bow submissively
to the expressed will of the people
of the second district, who now have
it in their power to reward true merit by
giving their support to Bamberg's gifted
son.
The lower part of the district is entitled
to the representative at this time, and
Edgefield, Saluda and Aiken will not
hesitate to bestow honor where honor is
d'-e.
Giv your loyal support to 'Senator
Mayfield, the working man's friend.
New Sinister Arrives.
Beaufort, July 31.?Rev. and Mrs. M.
L. La wson and young son, from Bamberg^
arrived to-night and are guests at the
Beaufort house. Mr. Lawson recently
made a very favorable impression upon
the congregation of the Baptist church,
which resulted in his being called to accept
the vacant pastoirate. He will occupy
the handsome parsonage of that church
in a few days. The presence of this able
preacher and his family is much appreciated
here.
To Rest.?The store now occupied by
H. C. Folk. Apply to S. W. Johnson,
Bamberg, S. C.
"We send out this week as a supplement
the platform of Hon. L. J. Williams as a
candidate for congress.
The growth of Bamberg is well attested
by the fact that all the carpenters and
bricklayers here are kept busy all the
time. They don't have to go away from
home to hunt work.
The attention of city council is directed
to the drain on Kaiiroad' avenue in iront
of our house. During and after a heavy
rain the sidewalk is flooded for a considerable
distance, and pedestrians have to
take the middle of the street.
This year bids fair to be one of the
most prosperous in the history of Bamberg.
Every enterprise and business is I
doing well, and we have had do failures. ,
We know of no town in South Carolina '
which is on a more solid foundation than
Bamberg.
A fine flow was struck at the new artesian
well for the town last week, the flow
being about one hundred gallons a min- '
ute. It only held for a few days, however,
and work has begun on it again.
The well is to be bored deeper, and the
work will go on until a flow is. struck
which will hold.
The Misses Gale, of Baltimore, Md., (
will shortly open a millinery business in J
Bamberg. These ladies are now in the
millinery department of the establishment
of Armstrong, Cater & Co., Baltimore,
and have chosen our town in which ]
to eDgage in business on account of its
superior business advantages.
rinr npw ir?h nr#??5 will be in this week. I
and we will be better prepared than ever
to turn out fine job work. Twe old presses
have been shipped off, and they will be
replaced with a larger machine, new and
up-to-date. Last week we received the
largest shipment of paper ever received
by any job printing house in this section,
and w"e can satisfy the wants of all, no
matter what they may be.
Negro Man Killed by Train.
North, Aug. 2.?An unknown mulatto s
negro was struck by northbound freight I
No. 4 on the Seaboard Air Line railway
yesterday afternoon about 3.30 o'clock j
aud instantly killed.
The dead man was about 40 years of
age and is thought by a resident witness 1
to be named Jesse Williams, which name
however, is faintly recalled. From the
coroner's inquest, held by Magistrate W.
A. Johnson, it seems that the negro got 1
off of yesterday's mid-day passenger train 1
and was considerably under the influence I
of whiskey. After lounging around the
depot awhile he went off down the railroad
and was seated on the north end of
North Edisto trestle about two miles south
of this place where he met his death as ?
stated. Evidently he was drunk or asleep
or both.
