Entered at the PoM Olllce at Conway, s. hp Seconrt-claee Mailer. THURSDAY v Sept. 4th 1Q02 james H. Tillman is defeated and no citizen of South Carolina needs to be sorry that it is so. No man of his habith and nature should ever be permitted to holu an oflioe of any Kind. 1 UK tirst primary election has pa sed. The results rshowth.it tin- j voters of the State have used their best judgment and oast their ballot4for men bccausoof their merit> and fitness for the olliees they sought. Tiik new court house was de feated by a large majority. It is said by many that the cause of its defeat was the lack of a full under standing ot the provisions of the act on the part of many of the peo pie. NVe do not see ho.v this can l>e put down as a reason for the defeat of the measure. The act was pub lished in full in this paper and attention called to it so that no render of the paper might miss it. The pro visions of the act have bei n explained in the editorial columns time and time again. All the magistrates of ; the county have had the acts of l!>h2 < for several months past. \ve do 1 not see how anyone can claim ig norancc, In our opinion. the main reason why tin* people would not vote for the new court bouse and jail ' is, that they think the present buildings arc large enough. They do not | believe that a new court house and jail are needed. Marriage at Socastee.

Tilinan and Timmerman com bined. Ilo carried 1 lorry county a gainst Talbert over two to one. And r someone asks, "Who is lleyward?" He is successful in business; is en- J erg- ie. level-headed, hard working. 1 lie comes fresh from the people, never having been a candidate for any r tlice. and has no taint of the politi- 11 cian. Ho will not bo found trim- v ming to a different breeze in every county; urging labor to light capital " here and capital to crush labor ^ there but he will advocate always justice to all, special privileges to ' none, and give earnest thought tol? bettering the condition of those who stand most in need oi friends in high | places. " He is in fact an ideal man for governor. A man to promote peace and prosperity, to give an impetus t<? ed- a ueation in tree public schools, to en- I courage enti rp.! ises and industries. < Ills record is of the cleanest. When e he .s Governor, every man and wo t man in the State can rest assured \ that that the honor of the old I'al h met to State will he sacredly guard- u ed, so far as it lies in toe power of s the chief executive, lie stands for I law, for obedience to law, for mo b rality and sobriety, for truth and ii justice.
