It is high time the people of j j have deemed it best to with South Carolina were taking a sober rHW f rom race. I desire to ex- second thought and relegating such cattle as James Tillman to the rear. Surely Cherokee county will never so degrade herself as to cast her ballot for a liar, a gambler or a drunkard, and Mr. Jim Tillman is credited as possessing all these “noble” traits of character. We refer you to Senator Sarratt or Representatives McCraw and Butler as to the truth of these statements. The latter is said to be exceptionally well acquainted with Jim Tillman. press to my friends my sincere appr muon of the encouragement given nr d a*-»ure them that but for the reason staged above I would have ueeu in me race to the finish. J. R. Tollkson. The people of this State will this summer have the opportunity to se lect their officers for two years more The thinking people will be cautious and select the best men possible to ! vote for, but a great many will go to the polls and vote without giving any thought to the character of the men they cast their ballots foi. Every man who thinks well of himself and bis country should study three ques tions before casting bis ballot First:—Is the candidate a man of character, one who keeps his word and does not seek to deceive and mis lead? Second:—Is be qualified to fill the office he aspires to? Third:—Is he worthy of the honor? After the«e questions have been given due consid eration and settled rightly, the voter is not likely to err. In order to have the best government possible we must get the best men possible to fill the offices. ♦ ♦ ♦ The coming celebration of the Fourth of July promises to eciipst- anything ever heretofore attempted by the people of Gaffney, and it is right and proper that it should. The business people have enjoyed a fairly prosperous season, the mechanic has labored faithfully and without cessa* tion and the farmers have put in good time on the farm, therefore it is nothing but right that all should take a day off and enjoy the freedom and recreation of the occasion. Let the hum of machinery stop, let the music of the saw and hammer give place to the toot of cornet accom panied by the slide trombone and the big bass horn while the clash of the symbals and the rattle of the snare dxum and the thud of the big bass drum keep a lively accompaniment. L«t all Cherokee come and bring their neighbors ami we wi.l enjoy one huge, grand day and then we cun take up our labors with renewed energy and feel better for the coralngllog. ♦ ♦ « ♦ The new editor of the Cherokee Critic, Mr. P. B. Lockwood, has the Card of Thau kit. We desire to express our sincere thanks to the people of this commu nity for their kidness, thoughtfulness and sympathy during our recent bereavement. Mr and Mrs J. L. Hdake NOT SO VERY GREEN. The riuritlu Mini Itnlher Evened Matters, I’p With the New Yorker. When the young man from Florida cutne to live in New York, he woke up one morning last winter, and, going to the window, he looked out on what was to him a novel scene. It was a snow storm. the first ho had ever seen. Jumping into his clothes, lie ran into the street. He stooped and gathered handfuls of snow and threw them in the air. He Jumped into a drift and sent it flying with his feet He finally lay down aftd rolled In it, all the time shouting and laughing at the top of bis voice. One of the crowd which had gathered to watch his antics went up to him and told him how his mother used to cure tits and volunteered to try it on him. “I haven’t any tit,” the young man said. "What’s the matter with you. then?” "Why, don’t you see the snow?” “Yes. I see it. What of it? I have seen it before.” "Well, I haven’t.” said the Florida young man. “What! You never saw snow’ be fore?" asked the astonished questioner, “Never. Seems strange to you, don’t it?” “It beats any sample of verdancy I ever run across.’’ “Oh. I don’t know,” mur *d the Flori da cracker. “Did you ever see an alli gator eating a nigger? No? Well, you are not so many after all. I have seen it many times.” And, throwing a hand ful of snow down his shirt collar, he pursued his Joyous gambols.—New York Mall and Express. wiiy.’ Why have a vacant house on your liundn when a Ledger for rent ad. will re: »• it?

NEW CANDIDATE FOR LEDISLATUBE Who is Bound to Get There for “Bettie” Says So. NOT BEGGING FOR VOTES IIIh Platform I* Ktform and Retrench ment —If Elected Will Reduce the Salary of .111 Officials Except Those Whom He U Personally Interested In. We hereby announce ourself a candidate as a representative in the legislature of South Carolina. Of course we are not begging for votes, because our “old woman” says that she is going to send us to the legisla ture anyway, and we want it to be distinctly understood that what our “old woman” says goes, at least it does with us, but knowing that our friends would be eager to vote for us, we thought that we would give them the privilege of doing so. But the best part of it is: When ever we get through overhauling the State laws our “old woman” says that she is going to send us to con gress to straighten out those fellows out there. (Ha, ha, ha, but wont we shine when we get out there to boss ing those big “bugs?”) The platform upon which we are to go to the legislature is reform and re trenchment. (We don’t know what that means, but “Bet” does, though. ‘Bet” is what we call our old woman, except when preaching in her pres ence, then we cali her “Bettie”—it would not add anything to our health for her to hear us call her “Bet ”) It is to be our special duty to retrench in the matter of officers’ salaries. Now, as for our own individual opin ion, we don’t thir k that our officers, with a few exceptions, get any too much pay nohow, but “Bet” says that they do, and what she says is law. (with us ) “Bet” says that we must cut the governor’s pay down to ($500) five hundred dollars a year, (but we are not going to cut it under $2,000 be cause we may he governor ourself some time.) We told her that we were afraid that we could not get a good governor for that small salary, hut she says that there are plenty of men all over this State who have got just as much sense as anybody’s gov ernor who would be glad to make $500 a year. But we are satisfied that we can get a real number one governor for $2,000 a year. Now, in rtgard to the pay of the legis'ators. We will have to get our brother legislators to help work up some plan by which we can fool “Bet,” because she says that one dollar per day is enough for them, and we are of the unalterable opinion that they should be paid $500 u year, not because we are going to he one of them, but becHiise we don’t actually think that that is any too much to pay them. And then we are to very greatly re duce the pay of all Stake officers, be cause “Bet” says that officers are servants of the p*ople, and that if we pay them such good wages that they soon become ‘stu< k up” and think themselves better than their masters, the people. There is one office that we are go ing to abolish entirely, that of State or dispensary constable. “Bet” says that they have been raiding around here every week or two for the last eight or ten years and if they have ever done any good (outside of draw ing their pay) towards the stopping of the selling of liquor that she can’t tell it, that she is not going to put up with any such a farce any longer. We are going to make it the duty of magistrates and their constables to Im k after the liquor business and pay them for only what they do. But she thinks it best to let the dis pensary stand as it is, as the people are almost obliged to have a little liq uor some time, but that she is not going to have so much blamed fool ishness about the thing any longer. Of course, dear voter and fellow citizen, it will not be expected of us to reduce the pay of offices in which we ar# personally interested, but we will go for the other fellows and don’t you forget it. Thanking in ad vance tne dear voters of Cherokee and surrounding country for their very cordial support, we have the honor of being their very humble ser vant, Gumtrke Hon. H. C. SarrHtt. |S. C.
