CONGLOMERATED CHEROKEE ITEMS OF INTEREST TERSELY TOLD. The News trom Town and Conntry Boiled Down for the Special Benefit of Busy Led ger Readers. Joe George has sold his farm near pine Grove and moved to a farm near Gaffney. While Christmas has been a quiet one every one seems to have had a pleasant time. Our friend J. L. Alexander killed all month old pig a few days ago, which weighed 420 pounds. We have up to this time heard of few Christmas tragedies. “The pray ers of the neighbors availeth much. We learn that a lumber yard will soon be established near the 0. R. 0. depot by some North Carolina par ties. There will be special services at the First Baptist church next Sunday morning and children's services in the afternoon. We learn that our friend Gad Sparks, of Ravenna, killed a hog which weighed 410 pounds last week. Gad is an appreciated friend of The Ledgeu. Felder Humphries and Miss Bon nie Humphries, both of No. 1 town ship Cleveland county, N. C.. were married on the 28th inst. by X. Blan ton N. P. Our friend Logan Fllis has pre sented The Ledger with a clipping from an old paper of wartimes con taining a war poem of Paul H. Hayne’s, South Carolina’s sweet singer. S. A. Ellis and brother G. F., of Slices, visited Logan Ellis, of this city, this week. It is reported that the latter is a candidate for matri mony and the prospects are said to be favorable, as the young lady smiles upon him. The Ledger’s job department has just printed an argument for Mr. J. 0. Jefferies, for the Supreme Court in an important Greenville case. The last case Mr. Jefferies had in the Supreme Court was printed in The Ledger office, and he was successful. We trust that the same good fortune will result from this case.

May these good hearted foremen continue in success and these little ones some day have a fore mans place. Rev. B. T. Creech of the Methodist church, who was assigned to the Gaff ney circuit by Conference, has ar rived and is making his headquarters with Mr. J. V. Barratt in this city, and has gone industriously into his work. Mr. Creech has honored The Ledger with a pleasant visit which we appreciate and we trust that his stay with us will be pleasant to him, and his charge will grow in Christianity, in morality and strength while in his care. Misses lone and Agnes Littlejohn gave one of those pleasant "At Homes" which they, by tbeir enter taining manners are so well suited to preside over, on the evening of the 22nd inst. Among their many friends present were, Misses Evelyn Hall, Florence Caldwell, Fannie Fort, Elese and Alma Lynch, Kate Folger and Minnie Lou and Addie Bams, and Messrs. Claude McArthur, Tom Clarkson, Chas.Humphries and Floyd Baker, of this city.Jand M. V. Ben nett. E. H. Hall, C. W. Leonard and M. C. Davenport, of Wofford College. Refreshments were served, which whenever surrounded by the most unique attractions, always go well with the boys. Meeting of the Gaffney Literary Club. The Gaffney Literary Club held a very interesting and successful meet ing in their hall in the Beminary build ing on Tuesday evening. There were some invited guests and a rich ban quet was spread after the regular pro ceedings were over, and all enjoyed themselves in social concourse until 11 o’clock. The exercises in the regular pro gram consisted of questions from Bhaekspeare, readings of selections from standard literature, music, and an address from Capt. Griffith on the History of Christmas, all of which was much enjoyed. This club has been in existence many years but it has done its work so quietly that not many have heard of it, though it has as many as thirty- five active members. The club has a good library and nas done much towards cultivating a lit erary taste among our people. Something to Know. It may be worth something to know that the very best medicine for restoring the tired out nervous sys tem to a healthy vigor is Electric Bitters. This medicine is purely vegetable, acts by giving tone to the nerve centres in the stomach, gently stimulates the Liver and Kidneys, and aids these organs in throwing off impurities in the blood. Electric Bitters improve the appetite, aids di gestion, and is pronounced by those who have tried it as the very best blood purifier and nerve tonic. Try It.

The 25 and 50 cent sizes lor sale by the Du Pre Drug Co. A Card from Mr. Hardin. Blacksburg, Dec. 21.—"There is many a slip 'twix the cup and the lip." Doubtless one thousand people heard B. R. Tillman utter the above truism, iq his famous speech at Gaff ney last fall, in behalf of the new county of Cherokee. He had refer ence to the bonds the good people of Gaffney had given to secure the erec tion of the court house and jail, and to pay the other expenses incurred in the formation of the new county of Cherokee, and the thrust was in tended to create a doubt in the minds of his hearers that the people of Gaff ney would not carry out in good faith their promises held out by them to the people residing without the cor porate limits of Gaffney, as an in ducement to have them vote in favor of the formation of the new county. I said then, and say now, that if the people of Gaffney are let alone, that: it’s their will to carry out in good faith their contract with the people, to wit: "Will build a court house and jail and furnish the land upon which they will be erected, within twelve years, and pay all other expenses incurred in the form ation of the new county." Why do I say so? On August 20th, 189G. A. N. Wood, as mayor of Gaffney, issued a call for certain delegates from certain townships in Union, Spartan burg and York counties to meet with the town council at Gaffney, on Sep tember 1st, lS9G,"to discuss the form ation uf a new county, and for Gaff ney to show them bow she will fur nish the court house and jail.” At said convention thirty-seven dele gates assembled, from seven town ships, and elected W. D. Camp chair man and J. M. Greer secretary. N. W. Hardin made a motion to the effect, "That the town council of Gaffney submit to the delegates as sembled tbeir proposition as to build ing the court bouse and jail, and pay all other necessary expenses incurred in erecting said buildings; survey of the terrilory.to be included in the new county, and pay the other expenses attending to its formation." Mayor Wood read the minutes of the mass meeting held August 10th, and the minutes and resolutions of the town council. The resolutions of the town council were in effect. "That they would lease the city hall to the new county for a period of ninety-nine years, at a nominal rental of |10.00 a year, and that they would build a i«il in addition, and that this was to be done solely at the expense of Gaffney, and that no taxes were to be levied on any one for that purpose.” Mr. Hardin moved that the propo sition submitted to the delegates was insufficient and not satisfactory. On motion the meeting adjourned until 2.30 in order to allow the delegates to inspect the city hall building and to take dinner. The meeting reassembled promptly at 2.30 o’clock. Col. T. B. Butler offered the following resolution: Resolved, by the delegates as sembled, that the proposition of the town of Gaffney be accepted, viz: "That the town council lease to the new county of the city ball for the period of twenty years, and that they put up a guarantee bond, approved by a committee of dele gates, in the sum of $15,OX), to cover all expenses in forming a new county, that the city council, or the citizens of the town of Gaffney, build a court house and jail within fifteen years, and deed the same to the county, then the lease of the city hall cease and determine." The motion wai amended Mr. Har din to read as follows: Resolved, by the delegates as sembled. that the proposition of the town of Gaffney be accepted, viz: "That the town council lease to the commissioners of county the city hall for a period of twenty years, and that they make a guaran tee bond, approved by a committee elected by the delegates, in the sum of $15,000, conditioned that the sub scribers will build a court house and jail and furnish the lands upon which they will be erected within twelve years, and all other expenses in cluded in the formation of said new county. When the court house is erected the lease of the city hall shall cease, provided that the site and plan of said court house be located at Gaffney.” The vote was taken by roll call (only the regularly elected delegates being allowed to vote) which resulted in it being adopted by a vote of 25 to 8. The above are verbatum extracts taken from the minutes of the meet ing held at Gaffney on September 1st. 1896, kept by me and published in the Gaffney Ledger September 3rd, 1896. These facts show the contract or understanding between the people of Gaffney and the people living with out ita corporate limits, at the incep tion of the movement that resulted in the formation of the proud little county of Cherokee, and 1 will show In other letters to ^follow this that the bonds and contracts have been executed and delivered by the people of Gaffney to the trustees represent ing the whole county pursuant to the spirit and letter ol the foregoing resolutions; that they have never been modified with the consent of the people of th' county; cannot be breached by the said trustees or the county commissioner! of the county and that it will he haAardous for the General Assembly to interfere with the contract existing between the people of the county and the city of Gaffney.

At this time of the year a cold is very easily contracted, and if Jet to run its course without the aid of some reliable cough medicine is lia ble to result in that dread disease, pneumonia. We know of no better remedy to cure a cough or cold than Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy. We have used it quite extensively and it has always given entire satisfaction. —Oolagah, Ind. Ter. Chief. This is tbe only remedy that is known to be a certain preventive of pneumonia. Among the many thou sands who have used it for colds and la grippe we have never yet learned of a single case having resulted in pneumonia. Persons who have weak lungs or have reason to fear an attack of pneumonia, should keep the remedy at hand. The 25 and 50 cent sizes for sale by tbe Du Pre Drug Co.
