N Rogers Bayly 1 have consented to assume the J duties of editor of this Issue of the Advocate. In making this explanation 1 beg to ask of of every critic pursuing this column, a bountiful "Deposit of Charity," and bear in mind the fact that this is my lirst attempt at journalism. Win, M CARTER. A WORTHY CANDIDATE. Circumstances, happily open an opportunity of saying a word of praise for a candidate for the ligisiature in a sister county, and it is with great pleasure that the opportunity is grasped. The Cashier of the First National Bank of Batesburg being a member of fim ofifn * * * ' * w?i? oiraic Lunitia u?is arranged 10 take a two weeks holiday during the first part of August and in order to get awry from his duties has arranged to have Mr. Ira C. Carson, of Johnston, an old hank man, fill his chair during his absence. Si^ee the arrangement with Mr. Carson has been inr.de Mr. Carson lias been urged to enter the race Tor the House from Edgefield t county. To fill his agreement in ' Batesburg will seriously interfere 1 with his campaign, but when he learn- j ed that it was a case of go on the en- , campmenb or retire from the Militia, his response to Mr. Garter was "Then you go, I'd rather be defeated for the Legislature than go back on my agreement.?If you have made your plans il conditional on my promise, you go 14 d ud " ' * Even wore i. ? >b for the psitona ! - ;< t yjp-, . 'we lvHild not re- j ' ,. frain from thinkin;1 f- t-v moral. ?e. words of Honr Clay,'"I 'd rather Vm right Mi id be fr 1 d It ha? been a groat nleaiure to ^ know Mr. Ira C. Carson as a class- .% mate in college and ever since as a n warm and worthy fr'?*nrt and to those who do not know him ? It is not necei ?arj to speak of him to those who ri< ! know him?butto all of old KdgeUel1'. We do commend him as worthy oi n your support and worthy of repre- r sen ting >ou. al PROSRESS--THE GOLDEN 0PP0R- ~ TUNITY. We desire to point out to the citl Lt zensof H&tesburg a mistake which ru they are about to make, and in doing so we oarnest'y trust that our motivewill he understood and that this word h9 Of warning may serve to start rolling Co a sentiment for the continued pros t/ perity and progress of our town. 0,1 It is a well established fact that w? have one of the best towns in South Carolina, with opportunit ies and ad ' vantages which few sister towns oi * 1 cai our size are favored; but the p-ogrcs?- pje which lias given Batesburg sucii a th< wide advertisement during recent years, will not, of its own weight, con tinue the upbuilding of the town in the face of the competition which our i eister towns arc developing. The J golden opportunity is within otn ? reach and it is time for us to t oncen- PI tratc our etTorts and grasp it. riier*- * " are several courses opm to us. but the most practical otieis that suggested A by our worthy townsman, Col. John 4,,n Beil Towlll,?to organize a business froi Men's League?and then dig down to sen the core of tuo situation and find rem- ry t edies. Tliere is beginning to show a decided tendency for trade, which is now '=5 ours, to drift to neighboring towns an(l and unless some decided cfTorfc is made 0111 on our part, more trade will follow th a m more enterprising markets, and final, Kua lv the golden opportunity -will have ,)cr passed. v lsl We call on the business men of til Bateshorg for serious thought of this a matter, discuss it among each other kJ"'s 11 ? y l. -.K MDNOEMFNTS,1; CANDIDATES CiSSS. j * i All aanuuncemc'iits u::J?rt! w heat will be charged for at tSie r_te oi $5 for state and 5.1.00 lor couni> office.* | positively in advance.
