IN MKMORIUM AT kest.?On April 7th, 1004, a little spirit in the pruise of the liuman form, ottered into the 'liome of Mr. and Mrs. T. lieu ton Bruce, there, folK u pnacc^t^r ATI I the heart of the father with |nrid?, *nd that of the mother with solicitude,.and love and joy, rejoicing that a son hud been born to the house upon whom could be lavished all that heart's love and affection that only a mother can feel for herolTspritur, , llesh of her llesh, bone of her bone. Now, in obedience to a preor-1 duined fiat, tho heart of the fath er is bowed in humbleness of spirit over the loss of his ilrst bora, and that, of the mother, while writhing in pain and an guish and agony, still findeth grace from above to say in all truth and sincerity, and with perfect trust in Him who doeth all things well. "Go ye before, my little Havon. When God in his good pleasure shall call ine also unto Himself, then will we again meet where all is peace and lights where no pain and suffering ran enter, and where little Havon and his mother will enjoy united the pleasures of life eternal." Littlo Havon Bruce, infant eon of Mr. and Mrs. 'J\ Benton iBruce died on the L'Unl of Aug. 1004 after lingering with illness Ajtiuost from his birt.h. He is now at rest. \V. A. S.

CllPMGI IEETD6 IT C11DEI. The closing meeting of the County campaign marked an era of that kind-of campaigning, and if it is follwed up with another of the Fame kind, will ring the death knell ot the primary sys tem as the expression of the will of the Democratic party in the selection of their candidates for ofliee in the general election to be held later. Tlie canvass throughout was a veritable love feast and a mtittial admiration society. , ^li?.

GAR RIS SHOULD BE RE-ELECTED. A short statement of the work of the commission during the term just served by Mr. Garris may be of interest to the ]>eople, as well as of interest to the can didacy of Mr. Gams himself in the approaching .primary. Mr. Garris takos the position that the railroads and the.people arc bound to exist together for all time to come, and they should live in friendship,if-tjnssiblc. It is not right that honest claims of j either against the tidier should have be sued for an$l collected at great expense to both; therefore the Commission'carMo no higher duty than to brtngv'if jpossible, the people and tberUUroacis clos er together. 'Rea4bn&bl^ rates only should be allowed ? by the Commission or cfosicedt by the railroads. The averagetrf South Carolina rates are n^w below the average 6f the rates throughout the South, and espeplal care has been given by'tbe commission to the agricultural and manufactur ing interests ot the State. Only recently has all cottop manufac tures been- reduce^-materially. It is not excessive to estimate that the Commission's reductions on cotton piece goods has result ed in a saving to tli*. mill inter ests of the State of something like $55,000, fertilizer saving by reduction to agriculture $00,000, reduction in transportation of cotton $106,000, reduction in wood for fuel $051,000, reductions in brick, starch, lime, building ma terial $40,000, reductions on arti cles of merchandise and others it is fair to estimate $120,000. To tal $471,000. Now, this is a conservative es timate of the amount of money collected by the railroads less than they woultl have collected on the commerce of the Statu for last year had it not been for the interference of the Commission. The Commission has diligently under difficulties kept up the gradual improvement of depots in the State, so that we have more new and modern structures in South Carolina than in any Slate in the South. Since his term began there are on the Southern railroad twelve addit ional trains doing passenger ser vice and live on the Atlantic Coast Line. While conditions can never be entirely satisfacto ry to all the people, is it not fair! to Mr. Garritf to say that ho has J done very well since he feels that ho has made no demands except those that ure justified? During the past year there have been some serious accidents which have resulted in the loss of life, yet it is a fact that there has been hauled in this State about a,.r>00,000 passengers and not a single white passenger killed. Now, if Mr. Garris, who is our commissioner, with only one term of service, could in jus tice and reason begin without experience and do this much for his people, ought he not be re tained as a matter of business, and that too in the interest of all classes, es]>ecial)y the agri cultural classes? Mr.' Garris' life has beeb a struggle for the making of him self, and his strong, intelligent, consistent work for tlie people wo believe will bo rewarded by his fellow-citizens. # Sitinbp hy Manv Pmilnds. The Highest Endorsements ! op George Bell Timmerman. A Hard Man to Beat. Tlw Monitor. Mr. George Bell Timmerman, a popular Johnston man now pra cticing law at Lexington, was in town last Monday. He is a can didate for Solicitor of this district, and judging from his popular ity with every one in tdis section, he will be a hard man to beat in this race. * Lexington County Has Never Had A Solicitor. Our N;?ws letter. Col. Timinerman is the only candidate for Solicitor from Lex ington County and Lexington has never had the Solicitorship. He has now been living in our county for nearly four years, and since he has been here he has devoted his energy aud intellect to the interest and upbuilding of the county. The Edgefield Adver tiser says of him. "Being a yeung man of unimpeachable integrity and well equip ped intellectually, Mr. Timmerman is rapidly coming to the frout in his clioseu profession. He would render faithful services should the jmople choose him to serve them in the capacity of Solicitor." Lot Lexington stand to her own. Is Experlenoe> In Solicitor Work. Hatrsbiirg Advocate. Lexington claims, and lias a just right to do so, that a Solicitor be chosen from her county. It is not alone on this ground that we urge our people to stand by our candidate, Capt. Geo. Bell Timuiermau, but upon the ground that heisoneofourmost talent ed sons, well versed in the law. . He has had some experience in that office, on several occasions filling the place for the present incumbent, Hon. J. Wm. ThurinOiid, his law partner. We urge our people to exert their every influence to secure his election and commend him to all the citizens of the Fifth Judicial Circuit. Lexington has never had a Solicitor, bear this in mind. Right Kind of Man to Put In Office. ltntwburg Advocate. N Col. George Hell Timmerman, Lexington County's candidate for Solicitor, in a recent speech, gave this as his conception of the duties of the office to which he aspires: "The office of Solici tor is not one of a legislative character, it has nothing to do with the formation of the laws of our land, but with their enforcement and administration. It is au office, in tnv humble opinion, that has more to do with the good conduetof citizenship that any other, save it be that of a juror. It is the duty of a Solicitor, therefore, to lend his assistance, in-so-far as law gives him means, to the con viction of the guilty and the protection of the innocent." That is a clean out and precise statement of the duties of a Solicitor, and we believe such ideas will meet the approval of the thoughtful public. We feel safe in saying, also, that he uot only has the right ideas about the duties of the office, but the ability and the determination with which to put them into execution. Col. Tim merman is the right kind of a man to put in such an office, and. if rumor can be counted for anything, we predict that he will lead the first primary by a.large majority. Primary Election Notice.
