I9«6 We congratulate the grand jury upon their presentment—ii.wa* abort. Mr W. W. Lumpkin has withdrawn from the race for United States Senate against Senator Tillman. Nobody is surprised. — • •• • —— Tiie candidate* for county office* are atill coming out, and it ia not too late yet. There is over a month within which to file pledges and pay asaeM- ments. Besides we can spare one more column for new announcements. It is stated that Senator Tillman will c keep his engagement to speak at the varions places heretofore mapped out, hr him. notwithstanding thejwlthdraw* al of Col. Lumpkin. Can he not be in vited to come to Colleton also? What My yon, members of the executive com* mittee? v- In withdrawing from the race Mr Lumpkin ia confident that he has “not intentionally wronged any one." He need not worry. The only wrong done was to himself. In coming out against Senator Tillman, his reputation for o good, hard common-sense received a seritos blow. This is abent the only injury that was done. — —— \ The extend re rains have serious'y injured the crops in this county. Un less the crop* come out wonderfully, there is going to be hard times in this country again. The thing to do then, is for our people to guard well their ex penses. Recent years of prosperity hare encouraged habits of extravagance* mud a short crop now, will fall heavily on some. l he business aud professional men of Abbeville hare formed a commercial tdub for the purpose of advancing the Interest of that town. Why not or- gnnir.e a dub in W<erboro to push the advancement of this town? It is true Walterboro is growing very Rapidly in .spiteof lack of concentrated effort on (he part of the business men ; bnt how much faster it would grow if our peo ple would baud together for.that pur pose. Organization, concentration of effort, is what we need. -- -■•■p* In view of the general 00mplaint about the scarcity of tabor, we would call attention to the fact that there are quite a number of well, able-bodied men loaf ing on the streets of Walterboro who have no visible means of employment. There ia a law on obr statute books in tended to get at this class, and we would suggest that our policemen lodk It up. There is absolutely no excuse % for an able-bodied man to be idle in this towu. There is plenty of work. 'Near ly every man yon meet wants som > cue to work and is willing to pay go d wages. . fut these idlers to work. If thsy win not work for pay, make the A work on the street without pay. tat We think the member* of the bar and BoHeitor Jervey did a wise thipg in re- fneelipg the Judge to adjourn conn af ter the dispositioa of the prisoners in &L On aooooot of the recent and oon- iMias, the crops in the ooanty, the most part, are in bad condition; A FACT ABOUT THE “BLUES” .

Another thing in favor of the action taken i* the fact that Wed nesday was a legal holiday. The jurors aud witufeoaen would have been dis charged Tuesday afternoon to return Thursday. If the usual custom bad prevailed, jnrors and Witnesses coming in late, practically nothing would have been done nntil Thursday afternoon and Friday. This would have been very expensive to the county with very little to show for it. 80 on the whole, we think it was a wise thing to adjourn court Tuesday—especially wben there were no very up. important . -r cases to come the of fol- onr IMPORTANT. We beg to call attention to lowing notioe at the head editorial column: “Communications must be accompanied by the real name and addreM of the writer in order to re ceive attention. No communication of a personal nature will be published ex cept as an advertisement." Notwithstanding the fact that the above notioe has been published for over two years, there are still'' some people who send us annonymons communica- tious.for publication. There are also a number of people who seem to think that a newspaper is the place to air the faults of other people and also to attack the personal character of others. Last week we received a communica tion attacking one candidate for a par ticular office and praising up another. We votiM not publish it for three rea- o sons: First. It was a personal matter with which the pnblic hud nothing to p do. Second. It was an advertisement of one candidate to the detriment of another. Third. It was not signed* We haven't the sliithtest idea where it came from or who wrote it. We jjavc no objection whatever to publishing letters boosting the claims of any candidate, bnt s.ach commanlca- tions are advertisements and must be paid for as such. A Guaranteed Cure for Piles.
