After upending all day In counting
the vote cast for W. W. Scott and
Sam M. Wolfe for the general as
sembly, the county democratic execu
tive committee Thursday evening
at 6 o'clock completed and reported
thal by a majority of 31 votes Mr.
Wolfe had eceived the nomination.
This was one of the most interest
ing races in tho history of the county.
Tuesday night it appeared quite cer
tain that Mr. Wolfe would be the
nominee*, but two belated boxes on
Wednesday morning gave Mr. Scott a
lead of 21 votes, which appeared to be
final.
When the executive committee met
yesterday the vote was tabulated and
the Corner box showed a dlacrepency.
Scott reaily recivea but 13 votes there
although he had been credited in the
unofficial returns aa were put down
on the tables with. 48. This pulled
Mr. Scott down 35 votes, giving Mr.
Wolfe a lead of 6 votes in the tabu
lation.
Whole Vote ' Recounted.
As the result of this announcement,
Mr. Scott requeued a recount of the
whole vote, ba" by ballot. This re
quired a long tin.: and the result was
that Mr. Wolfe received a majority of
31 votes. He gained 49 and lost 4 and
Mr. Scott gained 28 and lost 8, a net
gain of 25, which added to Mr.
Wolfe's lead of 6 votes left the latter
the nominee for the sixth place on the
ticket by 31 votes.
In only 16 boxes in the county were
no errors found. In the remaining
38 boxes there were errors in the tal
ly sheet kept by the managers of the
boxes. It was a long, tedious pro
cess, but semed to show the need of
absolute accuracy as to) each individ
ual ballot. The changes: were aa fol

Belton, according to the people from
that town who were here yesterday ,

business men have agreed to each pur- 1
chase one or more bales of cotton from 1
the farmers, paying at the rate of 10 1
cents per pound and in addition to this 1
all of the men agreeing to this have
also agree that they will hold the cot- 1
ton off the market for one year at 1

Auto Owners
Put on Notice. ?

to thT complaints which are being now 1
heard in regard to the speed which i
automobiles are run in the city of An- i
deraon and also thc dust nuisance t
which is created to a large extent by ,
the automobile "cut-outs." There has ,
been much complaint in the city over j
this matter for some time and more
especially during the last few weeks.
K is said that automobile drivers re
fuse to recognize that the pedestrians
have any rights and run their auto
mobiles at a very dangerous pace on |
the business thoroughfares, while
others insist on using their cut-outs ;
al all times. Both practices are to be ;
stoppe a if possible.

An (Md Question
Wfll He Citied.
The abattoir question ts to be finally
settled, once and for ali, at a meeting
to be held today, provided lt is possible
for such a question to be setled by
mere human beings. The question has
been a bone of contention in Anderson

of discuBlons have been held on the
matter while sessions Of city council
are going one. At the last meeting of

for good, and thia committee will con
vene this morning et 10 o'clock, to
gether with the butchers, the abattoir
owner, the board.of health and other
Interested parties, lt is confidently
expected that the meeting will last all
day unless better time is made than
ima been the case heretofore.
Frote*! Over
Council's Act
Those intersted in Anderson's Car
negie Library protested long and loud

the hands of the educational commit
tee of the chamber of commerce in
order that action may be planned and
executed. One well known business
man of the city said that if the city
council refused again to make this
appropriation he would at once can
cel his subscription to the chamber
of commerce and to the other organ
ization of a like nature and give the
sntire amount to the library. It is
probable that something will be done
In regard to the matter within the Im
mediate future.

Anderson, S. C.,
Dear Sir?:
The Cole Three-Row Oat Drill bought of you last fall, gives general satisfaction.
One man and mule can sow she to eight acres per day better and easier than any way I know;
one Drill last fall in ten days sowed me sixty acres ia cotton land that made twenty-seven
hundred and seventy-two bushels oats. The oats I took first prize at the Grain Festival in
Anderson were sown with this machine and yielded ninety-seven bushels. The fertiliser
attachment works perfectly, varying at your will from one hundred to one thousand pounds
per acre.
Yours truly,
