That farcical issue, the disponsary will pet^r out iuto notning, or worse than nothing .as it, did during the Ja*t session. V We jvqre pretty plu^n in our speeches during Uie reeeut cam paign, *.nd w,o waHt to r, ay that it we.w'itf anything that we are fiorA\y ;for, ^e are ghid of it. ;Some folks kuow more than they ,did including .ourselves. JiHAT FKOTKHT. iu explanation, but not in ex ,tenuation of the protest we tiled vWitU the county executive com ?initteeon lagtYhursday, we wunt .'.o say that wo entered it first, ?11 the interest of the hundreds .of voters who so kindly sup ported us in our candidacy for he legislature. Second, iu re taliation for guying given us yby dispensary constables and <dispouHiry advocates 011 the re ,sult of the election, and tluird, (because a phu.u jwov,ision 0/ the ^aw regelating primary elections J) ad been vviolaA?d by ono of /.lie Aland idJVtes for tlte .legislature, AvhicV violation 0^ IfrW absolutely invalidated the .election of tlie ^mrty whom I charged with ttjhe ?violation of law. W.e vt#w not present when the patter of contest was brought Alp, fknd have to go by hearsay fu ro porting Jt- Vrotp the testi mony so gathered, we learn that ,tho protest was read, in which ^>rote*t we .quoted the law upon vy.hiclj jjrjj |w$ed jt, gjving the date on which it was approved .(March tttli, 1905) quoting par ticularly the sections affecting the cose in poiut. Yet, iu the face of tins, we hear that the ebairmau pro teia of the com mittee, Senator Hay, when asked concerning it by a member of the committee during the hearing, said that if there was such a law, he had newer heard trf it. This was a warm proposition. Col. Hay, our State Senator, a member of the senate wheu this law was %passed and approved, ,kax never heard of it. Naturally that settled it. If Col. Hay had ?ever heard of it, he being one of our law-makers, and a man whose word and opinion on ques tions of law is religiously takeu by four thirds of our people, then there was no such law, and the few members of the commit tee, who voted, yoted with lamb like fidelity to pre-couceived opinions, to throw out the pro- 1 test. Later: We learn from an other source siuce the above was written that Col. Hay, upon be ing asked by Mr. Dau Kirkley if he had uot assisted iu passing the law upon which we based our protest, replied that he did, out that he did not know what the law meant in view of some rule passed by the State Execu tive Committee in May, l<K)t>, the law iu question having been ap proved in March, 1905. lliis looks to us like some more fuuny business. We have yet to be authoritively informed that representatives of a politi cal party can formulate any rule which would coufiict with an act of the legislature. To make it short, no rule adopted by any party is of force which conllicts with a law of the state, and we were simply buueoed. "So mote it be." QUKElt POLITICS. It is an old saying that poli tics makes strange bod fellows, and we believe it. The latest instance we have is Joel E. Brunsou, late a candidate for Governor ou a prohibition plat form, throwing the weight of such little iufluence as he may possess in the next primary to R. I. Manuing, a rock-ribbed ad vocate for that abomination of the prohibitionist, the dispen sary, iustead of to Martin P. An sel, a man who if uot a better man than Mr. Manning, is at least a better equipped man for the office. Iu addition to this fact, the ideas of Col. Ansel coincide more nearly to what are supposed to be the ideas of Mr. Branson on the liquor questiou, which alone should have induced him to give him his feeble support. That there is some move in the game of politics beliiud this action of Mr. Brunson,. is fairly patent, but it is a false move, and will deceive none but the unthinking. For our part, we want nothing to do with tricks in politics, 01* in any oilier game in which we I take a part. We honor sincerity in all thiugs, and must confess to seeing uot a suspicion of it iu this action. We hope our friends in both county and State will lebuke it at the polls on next Tuesday, and we believe tliev will do it. ^ince the above was put in type, we learn that Mr. Brun sou flatly denies that he will support, or is supporting Mr. [Manning. Rays that he wiil not. evou give him his vote. announcements. ? or County Supervisor. In response to the wishes of a number of my friends through out the county for me to enter the race for County Supervisor, I hereby announce myself a can didate for said office, and pledge myself to abide the results of the democratic primary election If elected to said o?ce I will give the people the best service of i honV Hm CttJ>,lub,e? nnd see that the affairs of the office are ad ministered faithfully and im? partially.

Buffalo Township. On* Day Cold Out*. BiotrJ Chncfti?M V"' ?or' iHrimt U5f Ktf, 0** Cold f? MmUvc V'uluiar, th? ?? Oat HI ore About CltickeiiM. Why the scarcity of eggs? Why so few chickens ou the market? There is not '.he slight- 1 est excuse for this condition of affairs. The reason l'or present conditions lies iu the fact that I our people have ? not awakened j to the fact that chickens pay J better than cotton, better than i potatoes, pay better than any- 1 thing that can be raised ou the farm. A properly bred, and properly raised hen ou a farm, will give j her owuer not less than 12 dozen eggs per anuum. These at the minimum price of lf? cents per! dozen will bring *1 80, or at least ?1 more than the cost (if production. That is easy of comprehension. Every hen you own, if slie is the right, kind of alien, pays you anuunlly$l more than she costs yon. There is no reason ou tho face of the earth why we cant raise all the ch ick - eus and eggs within our own borders that are needed by our own people. We have in former issues urged upon our reader.* the importance of this apparent ly small industry. Right now, although the country chickens have not begun to moult, it is almost impossible to buy an egg ou the Camden market. The reason for this state of affairs is that the people haven't got the. right kind of stock. It seems to us that we are growing too old, aud should have learned enough to realize that the dunghill chicken should be a back num ber. Wake up, people. Send off somewhere and get some thing good. If you don't know where to get it. we do. We haven't had an egg to eat for ages, aud are running short on grey matter. As to chickens, they may taste good, but we have forgotten about it. FARMIUIS' UNION NOT1CS. Farmer's Cotton Exchange. Why not producers of cotton run t.heir own cotton exchange, and have their own prices pub lished in the newspapers? Who lias a better right to do this business for the cottou grower than the cotton growers themselves? Cotton farmers just because you have beeu acting silly all your days by allowing others to price your stuff for you is no good reason why you should con tinue along this silly line when you now know better how to at tend to your own affairs by lin ing up in an organized way with your fellow craftsmen who are in with you. Come across, brother, aud join the Farmer's Union. Where is the fairness in mak ing the cotton growers lose the bagging aud ties while these same Manchester spinners make consumers of their manufactured products pay for the boxing and wrapping? These conditions of trade could not exist if the producers of cot- j ton would come together in an j organized body and put their! best business men in charge of their affairs as do these Man chester spinners. Educate the farmer in his business and ho will soon learn j that the only way that he can ever expect to take cure of his own interest in setting a profita ble price on his cotton is to com bine his stength with others so as to meet combination with combination.

' The results of the county pri ory election last Tuesday week declared by the executive ruittee are as follows: llected; VV. R. Hough, Sena ; Richards and Bethuue, Rep " utatives; Phelps, Probate fe; I. C. Ilough, Clerk of CoiiVfc Tu ruer. Supt. oi Educa tion; McCaskill, Treasurer; Rus sell, Auditor. Messrs. M. C. West and R. II. Williams will run again in the secoud primary election on Sep temher 11th, for County Super i visor. For Congress, Dr. Strait won j out ovifv Mr. Kin ley by a few [votes. ; Full iv. turns from the j district shows the latter elected j by about 4,r>(X) votes. In the state election, Senator I Tillman goes back with a ma jority of about S2.000 over his [opponent, Mr. Anti Dispensary. The result iu this race i? sur prising, as everybody expected the other fellow to get at least <10,000 votes. For Governor, onr man, Col. Ansel received about 40,000 votes to 2:1.000 for his nearest competitor, Senator Manning, the result being a second race in which Col. Ansel will win. The race for Attorney General was a "beauty, and will bo run over by Messrs. Lyon and Hags dale, the former leading by 1S,01M> vwtos. The vote cast for Col \0umu11s was very compli mi'Uiar.v, it being m the neigh borhood of t?;UK>0. H uriali for Youmans. We voted for him as wc did for all old 70rs, and are sorry that he didn't win out. Tee race for Comptroller Gene ral was interesting, and was won by our favorite, A. W. Jones, by about 5,000 votes. Col. J. C. Floyd, our candidate for Adjutant Geueral wiped up the earth with his opponent, j Maj. IJ# VV. Haskill by a majority !of about 33,000. For Hailro'id Commissioner, Sullivan and Wharton are in the second race, Sullivan with a big lead. We voted for Sullivan iu the first race, aud expcct to so continue. So eudeth the ? chapter of South Carolina political history. We are happy to note that no shedding of blood occurred dur ing its writing, and that it was marked by moderation every where.
