Tins is a question we submit for the serious consideration df the young men of tbe town and community. Tlvere seems to be no question as to tho need of such an organization. We are itnated almost on the dividing line between Lexington and Saluda counties, and neither of these counties have a military company. Hatesburg is a central point and easily nccessable to almost any portion of tbe above named counties, as well as to a large portion of Aiken county. Aside from tlie* question of protection, which it would afford the community in time of disorder and danger,'tis desirable as asocial prganization and means of recreation. In the armory could be established a resting room nnd other social features, too numerous to mention here, could be added iu the wisdom of the ojganization. In this way the young men cou Id be b ought in closer touch with each other in consequence of which each would feel a greater interest in the success and advancement of the other. We commend this question to is the serious consideration ok our readers. What we have said has been said simply by way of a suggestion, in consequence of which we hope to see some definite plan formulated for the organization of a much military c.mpany. The Advocate stands ready WBBr and willing to help in way por-ible such a movement. We understood tint Frank L?\er was to liave opposition, out if the c??m-i paign meeting at Orangeburg, whicb dence, Mr. McLaughlin's candidacy is a huge joke. We predict that Lever's majority will be at least -V* 0. Not only has Lever fulfil led the cxpectak tions of his friends, but bis record IS ^ one which w in merit the approval ur.d endorsement or every fair-mimlt d man. We have never regretted championing his cause and confidently believe that the .Seventh District has a representative that will JTdU si rikii?rer i ii.l 1. 1 after her luterests better than any other man in the district. We havr great hopes in Lever's future. Watch him'. It is no discredit to the it her can didutes to any t hut Dr. W . H. Tininie-- I man is undoubtedly the safest man in t lie race for Gevernor The public positions lie has held within the past eight years?that of Lieutenant Governor and that of State Treasurer--have demonstrated Irs ability as a public man whom the people could1 honor with the highest Hire in their gift with the t'surance that ils a Hairs would be admirably managed. A man who has made a success for himself in life can easily make a success for hi< j fellow-man and it is this trait of char- I acter that commends I ?r. Timmermnu to the voters of South Carolina. In every line of work lie is thorough practical, progressive, and it can he said wit h emphasis and earnest r.ess t hat a safer man con I I not he found in all South Carolina for the high oilier of Governor.? Dillon Herald. This opinion is shared by a great numberof people throughout the State, and we confidently believe that a majority of t! e people will recognize Dr Timmerinau's eminent fitness for the exalted office to which he aspires. In all the comments that have been made, not a word derogatory to his < fitness, or his character has bei n n?- i tered. If the people want a clean ad- 1 ministration, by a man r.liu hns been a success in every department of life. Dr. AV. II, Tim merman is the man t?> elect Governor. ___________________ .1 11 is announced that t lie Nort h A uguta Hotel company lias made selection of the name for their beautiful hostelry on Hie Carolina heights. 11 is "Hampton Twrate " The name was selected from j five honored names offered by citi/ens of Augusta and vicinity.

We had hoped that tiie present poll tical cam; aign would have eontintiei ami ended, as it begun, on a higl plane, free from mud-slinging am vituperation and oll'en-ive persona I i ties. In behalf of the sober, thought fnl citizens and Christian people of <>ii State, we enter our protest against tin mud-slinging business in winch soon of our candidates I >r ullice are imlulg ing. Personal abuse, rec: imination charges and countercharges by coin ueting candidates is mean and pusil lanitnous We have had quite cnnugl of that sort of campaign mud in Stmt) Carolina It wnnlil t?.. fn- i I dispense with the political campaign 1 if its oniy purpose is to alt'onl r.n op I portuuitv for a scramble forolllee. 1 political campaign should lie clean fair, honest, e incuting, conducted 01 a high plana of discussion, in whic! the great issues bet ore the people a prvseated, not in a way to stir up st ri I i or appeal to the passions and prejudice ! of men, but dispassionately and intclli gently. A man who does not possej the ability to discuss intelligently t In j principles embodied in a political pi it j form, is intellectually uieapahle of dis i cV:i'ging tin* duties of the ollice wliie he seeks; and the man who plays th i\ !. of a political niountehank anil u d.i'ges in "ihllingKgatc," is morali, ! unlit for any position of pnl?!!?- tru-t We note Willi pleasure that seme ci the candidates scorn the use of Abesiv language? and treat their competitor with the lit mi st court sy. We tak oil* our hat to these gentlemen am ] thank them for their example of g n tlemanly deportiih nt and manly inm pendence in the political arena.
