Is Cole Bleaae dead, politically?— Jnion Times. WE’VE BEEN EXPECTING THIS. It was a dam bustin rain.—Seneca Farm and Factory. Gentlemen and officers, we con gratulate you. We congratulate Beaufort county on the re-election of Senator Niels Christensen Jr, and Bamberg county on again sending Representative C W Garris to the Legislature. The re-election of these'jgentlemen means that two able and fearless exponents of right have received the endorse ment of their constituencies. IT CAME TOO SOON. Perhaps Nature was merely try ing to wash away some of the mud that had been slung during the cam paign—Seneca Farm and Factory.

We are 1 sorry that this is the case, but it is so and connot be helped.—The Lauren Advertiser. We are sorry to note that Editor E H Aull of the Newberry Herald and News was not successful in his race for the State Senate, but we are glad he was beaton by a man of the mental calibre of Alan Johnstone. The election is now over and the choice of the majority of the people of the county has been made. We are living in a Democratic county and under a form of government in which a majority governs. It may be that the officers chosen are not those supported by an individual voter in every case—doubtless there is not a voter in the county whose entire ticket was elected. But the majority was his, and he is in con sequence your officer, and the county’s officer. As a member, therefore, of the body politic, it be- / hooves one to forget all oppsition and to uphold the hands of the nom inees. Whatever there may have been of bitterness or strife engen dered during the campaign let it be forgotten, and let us all with one accord work for the future destiny of Colleton county. This is no time to cherish animosities—there is too much to be done. * I*t the deed past bury its deac Act, act m the livnig present, Heart within and God o’erhead. ATTACK ON EDITOR GRIST, days age.

GOOD ADVICE. If the signs of the times argue anything, it is that it is as necessary for the Negro, whether North or South to culitvate the friendship of as many liberal minded white folks as possible as it is that he makes himseif strong along lines morally, intellectually and financially.—Char leston Messenger, TOO MUCH POLITICS. BROTHER. We notice the Walterboro Press and Standard omits the “Prohibi tion column” this week. Does this mean that prohibition has done its work in Colleton—or has it lost out? One contemporary has been singular ly silent on this point in his las' issue—The Summerville News. SCHOOL OPENS. The school bell again chimes out “come,” and as we look forth and see the groups of boys and girls on their way to school we note some whose elastic step and cheerful faces are highly indicative of the soul and mind, aud all such will prove a blessing to themaeves, their teachers and their school. Their actions show their anxiety for work; their lessons will be perfectly pre- .pared; their recitations well given apd they will inevitably attain to to that round on the ladder of fame and learning called ‘’success.” They will master all knotty problems, not only in school but in their life’s work. They will not require pun ishing in order to teach them the necessity of studying their lessons. They study because they love to study, are industrious and energetic 'rom principle and their lives will >e a success. Following comes another group of boys whose lagging steps and sullen faces show that the sound of the bell grates harshly upon their ears. These boys will prove unruly, unkind and, unlike the other class named* will take but little interest in ther school work, and at the end of the year, in spite of the tearchers’ earnest efforts in their behalf, will be but little farther advanced than in the begining.—Johnston News Monitor. to announce to the people of Colleton County that he will represent Silcox & Co., the well known Charleston cotton exporters, and asks that he jbe given the privilege of bidding on your cotton before you sell.

More and^more the University authorithories are striving to link the institution to the common schools of the State. Several members of the present faculty have for years been closely identified with the com mon schools—teaching in the State and county school matters. Realizing that the high school situa tion in the State was far from satis factory, the Board of trustees a lit tle more than two years ago es tablished in the University a chair of secondary education, and called to it a man who had taught for nearly twenty years in the common schools, most of that time in South Carolina. Prof. Hand began by pving half of his time to teaching n the institution, and the other half to field work over the State. Within i than a year the demand for hfa time was so heavy that from that time since he has given almost hfa entire time to this high school work over the State. In the mean rime the Ltialature has appropriated $60,000 annually to aid the high oofa, and the State Board of Education made Prof. Hand its Stats Inspector farther linking Abe institution to the nchoofa. are now in round numbers one dred State aided schools, rural.
