goy pas This Strike You?
The people of Ridgeway and Winns
boro are constantly wanting to com
municate with each other on business,
and Ridgeway wants a telephone line
to Winnsboro. This would be ;a con
venience to the business men of both
places, and we believe that it would
pay to organize a joint stock company
for the purpose. Branch offices will
be located at Simpson's and Rockton.
Ridgeway is going to ru a line to
Mr. J. f. Harrison's in Longtown,
Sand, of course, this line would be con
neccted with the Winnsboro and Ridge
way line so that we would have direct
cormunaication with Longtown. Mr.
E. C. Heins is agitating the subject in
Ridgeway, and he tells us that his
-o~ .will subscribe one hundred
dollars. He says that it would not
.require a capital stock of more than
thrce hundred dollars. It is probable
that Simpson's and Ro~ckton would
take a few shares. A small fee could
be charged for usimng the 'phone and
yme bNieve that a good dividend would
ne paid on the investment. WVe weald
like .to knov what the people of
-Winnsboro think about it.
At ten dollars a sh'tre, it seems as if
there ought to be very little trouble in
gftting up the capital stock. We hear
that there is a line between Black
stocks and Chester, and Mr. WV. M.
raorick has a private line between
Woodwards and mlackstocki, and he
could be induced to run his lIne down
to White Oak. We are informed that
Mr. T. G. Patrick is anxious to con
nect with Winnsboro by a line. If all
of this was done, direct communi
cation between Longtown and Chester
could be easily arranged.

KILLED HIMSELF UNDER ARREST.
The community was shocked to hear
of the death of Mr. Thomas Hoffman
at Blythewood on Wednesday evening.
Sheriff Ellison went down Wednesday
to arrest him under a warrant charg
ing him with embezzling $57 from the
Southern Express Company, at Carl
ton, Ga. iHe had been employed there
ts telegraph ope, ator and agent of the
Southern Express Company, and in
some way got short in his account-.
The sheriff in Georgia came over after
him, and get Mr. Ellison to make tihe
arrest. Mr. Hoffman made io re
sistance whatever. While the Sheriff
had him in the depot at Blythewood
waiting for the north-bound train,
Mr. Hoffman stepped behind the rail
ings or counter, and having procurt t
a pistol in some way shot himself
through the heart. He had his back
to the Sheriff, standing in between the
Sheriff and the agent, wh* was writing
at his desk with his back to Mr.
Hoffman. No one was in the room
except the Sheriff and the agent, and
both were startled at the sound of the
pistol. He died within five minutes
after he was shot.
We understand that Mr. Hoffman
had offered to pay his shortage, but a
ettlement was declined. We heard
from a reliable gentleman that Mr.
Hoffmau told him last fall that he had
got short in his accounts in some way
that he (Hoffman) could not explain.
[t s--ens that if he offered to make
,ood a shortage that occurred in a way
that ho could not explain it should
have been accepted by the company.
Chidren Cry for Pitcher's Castora.
HE IS AFRAID OF THEM.
Mr Editor: Now that the great con
erence is near at hand, I am wonder
ing what the conservative3, tbat are
Woing to take part in that body, will
1o; how they will feel among those
who have been backing up and sup
porting the fraudulent government we
ae had the last four years. I hope
hey will not go into the trap that is
being set for them. Will they go into
what is called a Democratic primary?
[ hope not I for one will never vote
in that trap. It may be well for the
ouservatives to go and hear what sort
t compromise is to be proposed. I
ae heard one of the wisest statesmen
in Fairfield county atd one of the
purest Jeffersonian Democrats say that
that the conservatives were standing
mt for principle, for a government of
bhe people, for the people, and by the
people, and they could not, without
stltifying themselves, -go into a com
promise with those who for the last
tour years have been upholding a gov
ernment of Tillman,for Tillman, and
by Tillman. And this is all there has
been of it.
If the conservatives are trapped into
a primary, they ought to be disfran
hised during life. The coming con
ention to form a new constitnution has
aiwas s been a hobby with the Till
mamnites, and it is intended that the
uffrage questionr is to be the point.
With the experience we hadl in the last
election, where wholesale disfra~nchiise
muent was practiced, the conservatives
had better lee careful. If they go into
[t in a miinority they will be actually
elping the fraud, but if they stand off
and watch they may be able to elect
legates who will give the people ta
fi- and honert constitution.
Just now it looks to me about like
the fable of the fox and the blood
sucking flies. When the fox was
about to be done t->death a bird offered
to drive off the swarm; but the fo.X
ftaid, "No, these fies are now abaut
satisfied, and the one king bee has
about all he wants. If this swarm is
driven away a larger Bwarm. headed
by forty, is ready to pounce upon mue."
Now to drop the fable and come to
acts: Tililman and his swarm are
about done, but here is a larger or.e
ready to devour the fox, that is, the
conssrvatives. And they will do it it
they don't keep a lookout. I hope no
week-kneed couservatives will go into
the conerencP. J P'.
