There is no mistaking the fact that
the people voted in the last primary
without regard to past factional af
filiations. Reason is beginning to
regain her throne. An effort was
made to disrupt the contentment that
prevailed, but the effort was a t dismal
failure.

Heyward swept Colleton so clean
that it looked as if a cyclone had

command the confidence of 98 per
cent, of the people among whom he
resides. Surely Mr. Heyward has
reason to feel proud.

As between Butler and Sarratt
for Senator we had little choice. But
ler possesses more ability while Sar
ratt possesses more reliability. We
preferred the reliability but got left.
We are not a bit sore and sincerely
trust Mr. Butler will meet the ex
pectations of his friends and surprise
his enemies by making the county a
truly loyal and noble senator. This
be can do if he will bridle bis con
ceit and arrogance.

The second primary is over and it
was perhaps the hardest contested
election for senator, clerk of court
and county supervisor of any ever
held in the county. The forces of
each candidate seem to have been
well organized and to have done their
best work. The election, however
was a most orderly one and since it is
over the best of good feeling seems to
prevail. The successful candidates
accepted the honors in a dignified
way and the defeated candidates sub
mitted gracefully to the mandates of
the people.

It is very evident that T. B. Butler
is a better politician than R. C. Bar
ratt. Be it said to Butler’s credit
that so far as we have been able to
learn he conducted his campaign on
a high plane, in fact much higher
than we ever expected he could,
while Sarratt or his friends stoopec
to at least one little thing that they
should not have stooped to, and that
was circulating the report that Mr
A. X. Wood had given Butler (500
to conduct his campaign. Anybody
who has the slightest acquaintance
with Mr. Wood knows he would not
do such a thing. Mr. Wood would
Miss Sarah Elisabeth Goodwin, a Young
Lady of Sweet Personality, Dead.
IGreenvllle News.l
“It was the closing of a 'beautiful
life when the spirit of Miss Sarah
Elizabeth Goodwin left this world
yesterday morning for the ‘home,
beautiful and eternal.’
Miss Goodwin, who has been living
in Gaffney for several months, was
taken sick three weeks ago with ty
phoid fever. Two weeks ago, when
the disease manifested serious symp
toms, ic was decided to bring her to
Greenville, where she could have the
skilled nursing and attention which
was possible at the Greenville Sani
tarium.
All that loving care and science
could do would only mitigate but not
stay the fatal progress of the disease.
The end came yesterday morning at
4 o’clock.
Miss Goodwin had a number of rel
atives in Greenville and hosts of
friends whose hearts are saddened by
this sad seperation.
She was a young lady of strong and
sweet personality, possessing the fac
ulty of making friends of those with
whom she associated, either in busi
ness or society, and by the strength
and loyalty of her nature retaining
the friendships so won.
For several years Miss Goodwin
was one of the most popular young
stenographers in Greenville. She ac
cepted a position last spring with J.
C, Jefferies, of Gaffney, where she has
made her home since.
During her residence of three and a
half y°ars in Greenville and during
previous visits to the city she was a
social favorite, her cordiality and
bright intellect making her a welcome
member of any circle.
The deceased was educated at the
Winthrop Normal and Industrial Col
lege of Rock Hill. She was a daugh
ter of the late Dr. H. P. Goodwin.
During her residence in this city she
became a member of Christ church
of Greenville and was a constant at
tendant upon its services.
Besides a devoted mother she leaves
eleven brothers and sisters. The
body of the deceased was taken to
her former home at Lima, this county,
yesterday afternoon,. where the
funeral services will be held in the
Baptist church today at 12 o’clock,
conducted by Rev. A. R Mitchell,
rector of Christ church. The inter
ment will take place in the family
burying ground.”
The above announcement will shock
Miss Goodwin’s host of friends in
Gaffney. She had not lived with us
long, but her fine character, bright
intellect and sparkling beauty, had
made all our people her friends, who
deeply feel their loss in the death of
this charming young lady, and who
extend to the bereaved family their
sincere sympathy.
The only kind of consump
tion to fear is “ neglected
consumption.”
People are learning that con
sumption is a curable disease.
It is neglected consumption
that is so often incurable.
At the faintest suspicion of
consumption get a bottle of
Scott’s Emulsion and begin
regular doses.
The use of Scott’s Emulsion
at once, has, in thousands of
cases, turned the balance in
favor of health.
Neglected consumption does
not exist where Scott's Emul
sion is.
Prompt use of Scott’s Emul
sion checks the disease while it
can be checked.

The Farm a Reflector.
(.Southern Farm Magazine.]
The farm is the looking glass which
reflects the character of the owner.
If he Is slovenly, his house and yards
and fence corners show it. If he is
kind and generous, his live stock will
be gentle, sleek and fat. If be is pa
tient and industrious, bis fields will
show an increasing fertility. If be is
a good provider, his meat houses and
hay lofta and corn cribs will show
ample supplies. If he is a man of
taste, the surroundinge of his dwell
ing will be embellished with rare and
jeautiful flowers. No one can ride
by a country place without making
up his mind as to the character of
the owner, for it will be reflected in
the houses, fences, fields, stock and
everything which Is nnder his care.

There are other folks “who know how,” but they DOKT have
Queen Quality shoes. These shoes have all the points ©i beauty
that women seek, but the one great distinguishing feature that
characterizes Queen Quality shoes is their knack of perfectly fit
ting the foot. Your foot feels at rest the first time—feels “at
home”—feels “good.”
We’d be glad of the chance to demonstrate this fact. Needn’t
feel the slightest obligation to buy. Don’t mention “the size
you wear;” your foot is the only measure we need. And just
think! such shoes for $3.00.
