That big majority for Blease in
Newberry, his home county, failed
to materialize. He and Ansel run
* neck and neck, and Blease only carried
the county by about 100 votes
out of nearly 2500.
We suppose George Johnstone will
now be convinced that the people do
not want him for United States Senator
If Johnstone had been out of
the race, Rhett would have had a
* better showing
Just as we expected, the second
race for the United States Senate is
between Smith and Evans. At one J
time we thought it would he Rhett
and Smith, but Mr. Rhett made a
mistake in not making public the
contents of that letter earlier. We
voted for him, and it is a source of
much regret to us that he will not
be the next Senator. He is a South
Carolina gentleman, he made a clean
,j V . campaign, something we have not
?, . been accustomed to in this State,
and we feel proud that there was
one man who did not try to get the
office by criticising his opponents.
Of course the late entry of Mr. Rhett
had something to do with his defeat.
However, he and his friends have
reason to feel proud, and no doubt
there are larger things ahead for
'! him. ^
Election Notes.
There will be general rejoicing
throughout the State that Niels
Christensen, Jr., has been returned
to the Senate from Beaufort. The
1 r whiskey element made strong efforts
to defeat hija, but he won out handr
somely.
11 was said that Blease would car\-v
ry Bamberg and Orangeburg couni.*
tloe hut tho rotnrna fpll a HifPprpnt
tale. We never thought so, and
stated that Ansel would carry Bam-j
berg, for we know the good people
1 of this section of the State and felt
* that they could be depended on to
endorse the present governor.
The Herald asked Bamberg county
voters to give Ansel and Thomp
son good majorities, and they did it.
We are not so conceited as to think
that our support of these gentlemen
was the reason they carried the
/ county so large, and our only reason
' in mentioning it is to thank our voters
for their interest in the cause of
good government.
m'
In this county 'iome good men were
elected and some good men defeated,
but they accept the verdict of the vo'
ters in good faith, and nobody is
sore. This is as it should be, and
we are glad to see such a spirit displayed
by the defeated ones. Let us
all hold up the hands of those elected,
and give them our hearty support
in all matters pertaining to the
good of our county and its people.

Politics Causes Killing.
S4
Walhalla, Aug. 26.?Logan Railey
^V1- . shot and killed "Little Bill" Thrift
yesterday at Long Creek. Politics
is said to have been the cause. There
was great excitement at Long Creek
and Railey was hurried to jail. Both
men are prominently connected.
Railey is about 23 years of age and
unmarried. Thrift leaves a widow
and several small children. Thrift
is well known throughout the county
and every one deplores the trouble.
The coroner, sheriff and several
members of the bar left for Long
Creek to-day.
Thanks, Voters.
I desire to extend my heartfelt
thanks to the voters of Bamberg
county for the flattering vote given
me in the primary election on last
Tuesday. I keenly appreciate the
honor conferred upon me by the voters,
and in return car. only promise
that I will endeavor to faithfully discharge
the duties of the office and
conduct the business in such manner
as to merit the confidence reposed
in me by the voters of the circuit.
Gratefully yours,
JAMES F. BYRNES.
Third Receiver Named.
Union, Aug. 21.?On Wednesday
Judge D. E. Hydrick appointed Mr.
H. B. O'Shields, cashier of the Citizen's
Savings bank of this city, as
coreceiver of the People's bank
which recently went into voluntary
liquidation. This action was the result
of a petition of a large number
of stockholders and depositors of
the People's bank who were represented
by Hon. B. F. Townsend.
The appointment of an additional
receiver was resisted by Messrs.
Simpson & Bomar, attorneys for B.
F. Arthur and W. H. Gist. Among
the affidavits were some from B. F.
Arthur, president of the People's
bank. L. M. Jordan, vice president
of the bank, Dr. H. K. Smith, director,
and Mr. Giles L. Wilson, State
bank examiner. In substance these
affidavits were to the effect that it
was considered that the appointment
of another receiver was unnecessary
and that the men in charge of the
institution's affairs were men of int<3iiiprpnr?f>
and inteeritv and had the
ability to bring about the best possible
outcome of the bank's affairs.
Judge Hydrick, however, took the
opinion that the appointment of the
additional receiver was advisable
and Mr. H. B. O'Shields, who was
named, yesterday filed his bond,
qualified today and entered upon his
duties.
In this connection it may be mentioned
that Mr. O'Shields has for the
present retired from the cashiership
of the Citizen's Savings bank, or will
retire on September 1 for a few
months at least because his physician
advises him that so much indoor
work was too confining. On
September 1 Mr. O'Shields will assume
his duties as secretary to the
board of commissioners of public
works.
Rhett Will Stump for Bryan.
Columbia, August 24.?Mayor
Rhett,of Charleston, has been asked
to take the stump for the national
Democratic ticket in other states and
has consented to do so.
Mr. Rhett to-day received a letter
from Mr. J. H. Atwood, chairman of
the committee on speakers of the
national executive committee extending
the invitation. "I write to
ask," writes Mr. Atwood, "if you
can give at least a part of your time
in outside states. Kindly advise me
if you are willing to help, also what
sections would you prefer to speak
in. We would appreciate your help
in this great contest very much."
To this Mr. Rhett replied as follows:
"My Dear Mr. Atwood:
"I have your letter of August
22nd, asking me to take the rostrum
for Mr. Bryan during the progress
of the presidential campaign.
AS a lilt: luug ucuiucitti, as a. iujai
supporter of Mr. Bryan, a firm advocate
of the principles set forth in
our party's platjform, it will afford
me great pleasure to place my services
at the disposal of your committee.
Feeling as I do that Mr.
Bryan's election is of first moment
to the nation, I shall be happy, if I
may contribute in any way to that
devoutly,to be desired end. I shall
be glad to deliver one or more addresses
in what ever state or states
your committee sends me.
"Very truly yours,
R. G. RHETT."
Letter to Geo. H. Smoak,
Bamberg, S. C.
Dear Sir: You may like to know
what you pay for the paint in a gallon
of "paint," assuming the purepaint
part of all"paints"to be alike;
which it isn't; and worth $1.75 a
gallon.
Of a paint adulterated 10 per cent,
the pure-paint part brings $1.94 a
gallon.
15 per cent brings $2.06 a gallon.
25 " 2.33
33 1-3 " 2.62
50 " 3.50
75 " 7.00
The average adulteration of paint
in this country is about one-third; 1
so, you see, the average price the ,
American people are paying for
paint is about $2.62 a gallon. 1
It is a game of wits. Adulterators ,
are always too sharp' for the bulk of
consumers. People won't pay $1.75 1
a gallon for paint. So they pay i
$2.62 a gallon for paint and something
that looks like paint mixed 1
with it. (They pay the painter, be- i
sides, from $2 to $4 for painting
those useless gallons.)
Why do they do it? They don't i
know Devoe.
Yours trulv

Mrs. Webb Convicted.
Chicago, Aug. 12.?Mrs. Alice L.
Webb, divorced wife of Brodie L.
Duke, millionaire tobacco manufacturer,
was to-day found guilty of defrauding
the Great Northern hotel
by passing a worthless check. Motion
for a new trial was made and
will he argued later. If not granted, ,
sentence then will be passed by the ?
court. '
Garbed in black, Mrs. Webb was
composed and expressed confidence
that the verdict would be in her favor.
Her plea that the check, which
was for $50, was written while she
was under the influence of stimulants
and narcotics taken to alleviate the
pain of an attack of pleurisy, she believed
would be sufficient to influence
the jury to bring a verdict of acquittal.
At the word "guilty" Mrs. Webb
flushed and trembled, but only momentarily.
Shfr recovered quickly
and was apparently perfectly composed
while her lawyer, Alfred E.
Case, made his motion for a new
trial.
The extreme penalty of the crime
of which Mrs. Webb was found guilty
is a fine of $2,000 and imprisonment
in the county jail for one year.
Mrs. Webb was released under
bond of $1,000.
Mother and Infant Killed.
Fountain Inn, Aug. 29.?Mrs.
Dave Sims and her infant daughter
were instantly killed by lightning at
their home on Monday afternoon.
Mrs. Sims is survived by her husband
and three small children. Mr.
Sims is a farmer and lives about
three miles from Fountain Inn.

There is more Catarrh In this section of the
country than all other diseases put together,
and until the last few years was supposed to
be incurable. For a great many years doctors
pronounced It a local disease and prescribed
local remedies, and by constantly failing to
cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to be a
constitutional disease and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co.,
Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure
on the market It is taken Internally in doses
from 10 drops to a teaspoonful. It acts directly
on the blood and mucous surfaces of the
system. They offer one hundred dollars for
any case it falls to cure. Send for circulars
and testimonials.
