Pond field, July 16.—The majority
of the farmers are about through
work in this section.
The Pondfield and Evergreen
schools opened up last Monday with
Misses Daisy Crocker and Sallie Hug
gins as teachers.
The boys are talking of organizing
a base ball team at this place. They
have the proper material, but it is
doubted whether they are fast enough
runners to meet with success. Mr. J.
H. Gallman is the origin or source of
this ball team. That is right, John,
keep up the boys’ spirit if you can.
Hurrah for Butler, the Cherokee
candidate for Congress. He is com
pos mentis and his duty will be no
greater than is performable by his
ability. Ills past life has been
spent in a way that says: “I have
done my duty pro patria and pro
bono publico. ’ Then should we not
adhere to him and let him fill as much
of the road to the White House as
possible? In our votes his jacet, or
here lies, Col. T. B. Butler's power.
Why not sustriin him as enthusiasti
cally as we have Hon. 1). E. Finley?
The trees seem to be speaking of
their triumph ’under the legislation
of Col. T. B. Butler and Honey, not
Hon. “Cotton” Ed Smith. Surely
there will be seen, or at least should
be, those two gentlemen sitting In the
National assembly. Both are ami
able. talented and patriotic.
Get a move on yourselves, people,

A False Report.
Thickety, S. C., July 16th, 1908.
Capt. J. B. Bell,
Gaffney, S. C.
Dear Sir:—It has been reported
around Gaffney that Capt. I. M. Smith
and myself are not on the very best
of terms. If you remember this same
report was started just before the
last election In this county. The fact
!<> this report has no foundation and
was evidently started by some little
two-by-four politician in an effort to
weaken the powerful political ma-
cuine we have built up In this end of
the county. To further discredit thi»
report will say that on several occaa-
lons lately I have loaned Capt. Ike
my dress suit to wear to public enter
talnmcnts, staying away myself,
knowing that Capt. Ike could present
u better front or at least more front
than myself. In conclusion will say
that we will both be found lined up
with all our political power for the
candidates who we think will do us
the most good, and who have the
necessary power to make old politi
cians like us love them.
Yours truly,
J. R. Graham.
At the Buford St. M. E. Church.
Notwithstanding the extreme heat
quite a large audience assembled at
Buford Street M. E. church Sunday
morning. The sermon by the pastor
was on “Missions” and especially de
voted to the Ladies Missionary So
ciety of the local church. As usual
Mr. Harper preached a strong and In
teresting sermon and there can be no
doubt but what he said will awaken
interest in the great cause of mission
ary work.
At the morning service Miss Julia
McArthur favored the assemblage
with a yharmlng rendition of "Come
yo blessed from the Holy City.”
Success of Prison Labor on Roads.
After a trial of eleven weeks the em

of municipal engineering to have

reached Washington. Three distinct
ends were in view in the programme
submitted by the special committee on
the employment of prisoners, which
was approved hut February. The first
