The county campaign is practically over. Next Tuesday will decide to a great extent the men who i re to gov. ern. We are aware that there have been some differences between the people—perhaps more than should have been—but on the whole the campaign has been conducted on a high plane. We have heart of very little abuse and we are satisfied there has been as little of it as there has been in any county campaign in this State. And y»t we believe we could have done without what we have had. There is no use in bickering and fault-finding. Whether or not the men of our choice are elected to office wo shall give those who are elected the right hand of fellowship and promise them our warmest sup port in their honest efforts to. give this county an ideal government. There is hardly a man in the cam paign who could not make this county a good officer, and if some man is elected whom wo should think is not as competent as another who ran against him it will be our pleasure to help him make a good and efficient officer. We do not believe there is a man running who is not honest and no county can be very greatly hurt with an honest man in office let him be ever so incompetent. An honest man will seek the advice of compe tent men and will follow that advice, while a dishonest man, be he ever so competent, miglit involve the county if the opportunity presented itself. So we have nothing to fear in Chero kee county along that score. In our travels over the county we have talked to a great many people and we speak the truth when we say that we have yet to find the first man who is prejudiced against Gaffney. There may be some and there doubt less are some, but we have not been able to find them. One thing we have found, however, that is a source of regret, to us, and that is that the good people of Blacksburg are themselves, in a measure, arrayed against each other. This is not as it should be. We venture to advise the residents of our sister city that if they ever ex pect to accomplish anything they must get together and work together for the good of their town. We would rather see them pulling to gether for the benefit of themselves, even if they should differ with us, than to see them pulling in different directions. This paper would like to see every section of this country doing its ut most for the prosperity of the whole county, but we want above all else to see each section united for its own good. Unless men can lay aside their personal prejudices and unite for their common good they cannot be expected to lay aside their personal prejudices for the good of the entire county. The lesson must be learned at home. Now let us all pull together for the good of the entire county. Let us In county affairs know no Gaffney, no Blacksburg, no White Plains, nor any other section, but be one united people bent on making this the grand est and noblest of all the counties of South Carolina. f— HAY. Without making any enquiry we are confident that twenty car loads of hay hire been shiped to Gaffney this year, and tt great portion of It has been sold to farmers. Now there is at this time enough hay growing in Cherokee county to feed her stock for two years, and the farmer who next year wants to buy hay should be refuaed it, and taught that there Is a penalty for hia want of thrift. OLD COTTON. Several lots of last years cotton crop have been hauled in lately and sold. The holding of cotton for high prices lias not generally proved profitable to fanners. Such as have held can now figuro on it and see how it has turned out with them and use their figures to govern themselves in the future. ENTRIES FROM OUR DAY BOOK. Don’t be a dummy but go to the polls and vote for the men of your choice and let no man pursuade you to do otherwise. In the Senatorial and Legislative race it is measures, not men, to be decided. In the county offices it is men, not measures. Let the voters of South Carolina assert their manhood and' turn down that sickly little puppet, John G*.ry Watts. He is enough to disgust any selfrespecting people. This is a great county and is cap able oi great development, but it will never be developed until we learn how to lay aside our personalities and go to work towards building it up. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ The bond question is settled and settled forever. After the election we will hear nothing more of it. The county is to be congratulated upon the settlement and all should shake hands and let by-gones be by-gones. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ Have the interest of Cherokee county at heart when you go to vote next Tuesday. Do not vote for men who you do not think competent to fill office simply because they may happen to be your personal friends. Ws wish Mr. Harden could have run on another issue beside that of the bond. We honestly believe he has not made a vote by it. We hope so at lease. He may have meant well but he was wrong along that line. Ik you want to vote for Mr. Hardin because you think he will make Cherokee an ideal Senator do so. But do not vote for him on the bond issue. It is now beyond his reach and he could do nolhing with it even if he were Senator. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ We do not want to hear of any rowdyism at the polls next Tuesday. Let every man be on his good be havior. Vote as you please and then leave the voting precinct and go about your business. In this way personal difficulties may be avoided. ♦ ♦ Vote for any man in favor of bet ter rural school facilities. The igno rance of South Carolina is lament able. With the advantages wo pos sess we should be one of the most en lightened people on earth, while on the contrary—wc dislike to confess it —we are the most unenlightened. On election day see that your tickets has on it the names of the best men who aspires to office in this county. It is with the county the most of us deal. Don’t worry about the State. Of course we want the best men in that race to win but State officers do not affect us as do county officers. Mk. Hardin bus said at different campaign meetings that if Gaffney would pay that $15,000 bond he would retire from the Senatorial race. In order that Mr. Hardin show his good faith it stands him now to retire. The town has liquidated the bond, giving $14,300 for a bond whose face value is but $8,000 at this time. Be true to your promise, Mr. Hardin, and withdraw from the race. The conduct of Messrs. McMahan and Mayfield at Anderson will be re gretted by all of our people who have the best interest of the State at heart and make them long for the •speedy return of the time when it will only be possible for the men who confine themselves to decent methods to re ceive countenance when they aspire to positions which should be filled by men who would be an honor to the State and of whom the people would be proud. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ When the campaign Is over let us all join hands and go to work for Cherokee county. No political dif ferences should be allowed to retard the material progress of the county. Politics should be a secondary con sideration. There is nothing in it except for the fellow who geti the office. After you put a fellow In of fice nine times out of ten he will forget that you ever voted for him until he wants the office for another term. The man who loses his head about politics need tos cultivate some good old horse sense. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ The Ledger has taken no part in this campaign except to try to keep down what we believe was sectional ism. We meant no harm to anyone but had the good of the entire county at heart. One of our friends desired that we publish a little complemen tary notice of him taken from one of our exchanges. We refrained from doing so because we did not wish to give him the least advantage over anyone else. We may have seemed antagonistic to Mr. Hardin but we only wanted him to change his tac tics and if he had done so we believe he would have made more votes. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ A gentleman said to a representa tive of The Ledger at one of the campaign meetings, “It is unfortu nate that this bond question has been sprung. Gaffney .-will not re cover from the effects of it for ten years.” He may have" been right but we doubt it. Nothing but good can result from the airing of a question concerning which there is some doubt. We believe that the people have common sense enough to see the just and equitable side of this bond question and we know when once understood no one will blame Gaffney, but, on the contrary, will give the town due credit for being being honest and carrying out its promises. The man who is little enough to hold a grudge against the town or anyone in it on account of the bond question is too small to be noticed. PRESS OPINION. The people have plenty of 13-inch shells stored up for election day which are sure to knock out some of the candidates for State offices.— Aiken Journal and Review. * * * Rows at campaign meetings are to be deplored, but McMahan was right, under the circumstances, in giving the lie to Mayfield, and strik ing him back when struck.—Sumter Freeman. * * * Professors Corbett and Fitzsimmons ought to bo engaged at once to teach the pugilistic art in the next cam paign of education, with an emphasis oil education, in South Carolina.— Greenville Mountaineer. * * * It is a sin and a shame the way some of the candidates for State offi ces are conducting their campaign. It is a disgrace to The State that should not be tolerated.

Kings Creek, Aug. 21.—Wc are having copious showers of rain, more than the farmers like, as some of them have commenced pulling their fodder. Protracted t meetings, picnics and candidates—both political unci mat rimonial are plentiful. I had five to prepare dinner for the other day. I don’t know which is the “plenti- fulest” around Kings Creek—candi- j dates or widowers. I have more of j both than I can do a good part by. Nevertheless I will do the best I can by both. I hear the hammer and saw of Mr. W. S. Paterson who is the builder of the residence of our friend Mr. A. W.

She has forty-seven scholars oc her roll. More than she cun do a good part by. she says. Rev. J. W. Bailey has been carry ing on » series of meetings at Antioch. Your humblie scribler had the pleas ure of attending two days and one night. I was sorry I could not stay until the close of the meeting. Mr. Bailey is a good preacher, and accord ing to my judgement, also a good)man. The first; evening we went up to Mr. Bob Dixions, who lives near the church and from there we went to church, and then back to Mr. Dix- ion's, where we spent the night, ac companied by my friends Pearl and Buford Bird. Mr. Dixion favored us with some nice music, both vocal and instumental. The family treated us very nice. We dined next day with my companion’s Uncle Wil liam Bird. He has two charming daughters, Sudie and Effie, who gave us sweet music on the guitar and utoharp. 0. R. Wilburn is o’ er the creek having* a good old time, I guess. He pretends to board with us, but is not here much of bis time. I consider hirn a trancient boarder. We have a flourishing Sunday School. Mr. W. C. Wilburn is su perintendent, Mr. Simon Miller sec retary and Miss G. E. Wilburn teacher. Misses Sallie and Mildred Whiso- nant came over to the station this morning to take the train, to attend the picnic at Smyrna to day. w. Star Farm Statements. (Correspondence of The Ledger.) Star Farm, Aug., 23.—We are having some very warm weather now. We had plenty of rain last week. I guess the people will have plenty of barbecued meat. There have been several barbecues around here. Your correspondent has been in Spartanburg several days visiting. The crops around there are fine. Mun Blackwood is keeping bache lor's hall. He does his own cooking and attends to his farm. Mun has the best crops In this section. The protracted meeting at Elbethel has closed. Rev. Tate has been re tained as pastor to Elbethel church.

All the cotton mills in South Car olina are doing well, earning good dividends for their stockholders and keeping right at the head of the cot ton manufacturing industry in the South. The proud distinction which tills State occupies in leading all other Southern States in the cotton mil! business has been won by hard and intelligent work, together with the many natural advantages offered by South Carolina in tills special field, of industrial development.— Anderson Intelligencer. ♦ * * The Yorkvillo Enquirer remarks that all the people of Tirzuh asked for the removal of the dispensary there but their request has been ignored by the State board of con trol. All of which goes to show that the dispensary law is one of the most arbitrary and tyrannical in its ad ministration of any of the laws in this country. How much longer the people will agree to submit to a law which has no regard to their rights and liberties is for them to answer.—Darlington News. They Resemble Hungry Hounds.
