AUDITOR PATTERSON IN THE RACE. The card of A. A. Patterson, Jr., for re-election to the office of County Auditor appears elsewhere is this refreshments awaited them. Dr. and Mrs. Fishburne will make their future home at Pinopolis. Mrs. Fishburne is a most talented and cul tured young lady who will grace the society of their new home. Dr. Fishburne is the oldest son of Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Fishburne of Walterboro and has been practicing medicine at Pinopolis, in Berkeley county, for the past six years. Among those present who came from a distance were Dr. and Mrs. Porcher and Mr. and Mrs. Coxe of Philadelphia. Mr. and Mrs. Richard 1. Manning of Sumter. Mr. and Mrs. Chailes Stevens of Pinopolis and the Misses Boykin of Camden. should report and let the people see issue. Mr Patterson was elected 2 years ago, after a very close and exdiing a majority of 35 votes over what they were adopting. He thought, however, the moat impor tant question now was not one of electing the officers of the town, tut was the question of finance. Ha had secured a statement from the town treasurer showing the receipts and expenditures fora year. This showed in round numbers $3,000 to run the town and pay the salaries as it is now. while the income of the town from all sources was only $2,500. He thought,, however, that it was high time for some method to be fallen upon to make the expenditures con form with the income. After a considerable discussion of race, by P. M. Buckner, who ran a second race with him. The race for auditor two years ago was most interesting; the fol lowing gentlemen having been candi dates: A. A. Patterson, Jr., P. M. Buckner, J. W. Canon, H. W. Du- Bois, S. B., Saunders, and E. M. Jones. The vote in the first primary for the two highest was, A. A. Pat terson, Jr.,—566; P.M. Buckner—499 Mr. Patterson will be .opposed by Mr. Buckner again this time. It is also rumored that H. W. DuBois, will again be in the race. Mr. Pat* tenon has many friends in the coun ty, who will do all they can to insure his re-election these questions a motion was made. by Mr. Fishburne that the motion of ; CANDIDATE FOR COUNTY AUDI Mr. Smith be tabled. By a vote of tad 2u to 18 the resolution of Mr. Smith , , w t L an l The card of P. M. Buckner for was tabled.

Since that time Mr. Buckner has been Deputy. Sheriff, having resigned that position early this year. Mr. Buckner is a young man of many manly qualities and sterling traits of character and is ful ly competent to fill this important office if chosen by a majority of the voters of the county. He will doubt less prove a formidable opponent in COLLETON'S OLDEST SUBSCRIBER Col. and Mrs. C. G. Henderson, of Walterboro, are here for a few days | the race for this office, and are stopping st the Mansion House. Col. Henderson it the old est subscriber in OoUeton County to The News and Courier in point of time of subscription, having first heen^a subscriber to the Courier, then’ The My News, than Tim ADAMS RUN LOCALS. Adams Run, April 16, —Special: Owing to the presence of many fair and attractive guests, our town has been quite gay, socially, during the past several weeks. Mrs. E. W.

Miss Florence BarnweU spent last week’s end with her parents. Her many friends were-delighted to see her again. Miss Lula Gray of Varnville is the attractive guest of Miss Julia Larsen. Waq glad to see J. B. D. come to the front once more. I do not see why he hides his talent. When one can write entertaining and instruc tive articles they should do so.

I believe the rea son He has not come l»efore isr* be cause His people have not done their duty, they have not preached His gospel to every creature, and when ever wc do that 1 believe our Master will come to His own and His king dom will come here. "Brethren, I am a denomination- alist, and I believe 1 will !>e one in heaven. 1 do not l»elieve that there is anything wrong in denominations; I believe they are- right; and this body does not stand for any thing against them, hut for many years the denominations have been stand ing each for itself and they have carried on a guerrilla warfair, as it were, against the enemy, and we 1 have often felt as much pride in winning a convert from some other church as if we had won him from the strongholds of satan. But this Association stands for the organiz ing of the denominations into an army. The , denominations will stand for 'th£ regiments, divisions and corps, and under the direction of the Great Captain we will have one army that will go forward to conquer this world for Him.” BANNER OFFERED.
