" Tl!URSDAY, MAY 26, 1887.
The Oconee people hiav:e raised a
nice question in connection with the :
honor license. Seneca is a dry town
by act of the Legislature. An act
of the Legislature submitting the
X ' question of license to the voters of
the county was passed. And at a
recent election the county voted for
license. Now the question arises
what becomes of the special act relat
itg to the town of Seneca.
We desire to call attention to the
article on the first page of this paper,
from Dr. T. G. White, formerly of
this county, on the subject of fruit i
canning factories. Small enterprisesl(
of this kind will pay. There are
quantities of canned fruit sold right
here in Newberry. We expect nearly
enough is consumed right here to
keep a factory on a small scale busy
to supply the demand. We raise the
fruit, or can do it ; we consame the
canned goods. WVhy ifien send abroad
for what we can profitably manufac
'ture at home ?
Rev. J. Hawkins, D. D., editor of
the Ldlte'un Vlsior, publishes a
card in that paper this week denying
the report that has been circulated to
the effect that he had .made apphca
tion to join the Methodist church.
Ur. Hawkins has been a Lutheran all
his life and has been in the Lutheran
ministry for more than thirty years
and it would have been late in life
for him to change his church. Those
who started this rumor and those
who have kept it going should now
see to it that no pains are spared to
stop it and thus partially make
amends for the injury they may haye
I d one a good and useful man.
cossoLIDATION EFFECTEl).
As will be seen from the report
~. published elsewhere in this paper,
h- he meeting of the committees of the
three C's and the Georgia and Carolina
Midland railroads, was held in Colum
S bia the other day and an agreement of
consolidation entered into which, will
no do>ubt be ratified by the stockhold
ers, or directors when they mee .r'he
main line of the three s as we
understand it will run airect to Char
leson,an th Ge ~a and Carolina
Midland will be a branch. WVe see
no objection to this. AWe will have
-connection from this road, from the
lakes to the ocean. They claim to
have plenty of money and resources
* to complete the road, and by the
articles of agreement, or resolutions
adopted, tuey obligate to complete it
in three years. What we want is the
road. The money that has been vote'd
is jbst that much given to the enter
prise ;'-and we'~consider whatever
* subscription we vote to railroads is so
much money given to have the roads
built. But even then it pays town
ships and counties to vote reasonable
subscriptions, for the amount thus
given, pays back in the increased
valuation of property, and the addi
tional amount of property put in the
town, or townships, or county. in con
sequence of the construction of the
road. The $40,000 we have already
2 -given and the $10,000 we are going to
Sgive will soon repay us for the outlay
ifthe roads are ever built. And we
hope.to see both of them built soon.
The tliree Cs will take up and pay
at once all the indebtedness of the
Georgia and Carolina Midland, and
will begin the construction of the
road within .sixty days after the con
solidation is complletedi.
A meeting of the stockhoiders of
the Georgia and Carclina Midland
railroad will be held in Columbia at
Wrights IIotel on June 1st, to hear
the report of the commit:ee and act
on their report.

Mr. Watterson has repiled to tile

him as Vice President as iollows.
-Lie indulges in comment on what he
considers an editors calling and
gives his idea about the complexion
of the ticket in '88:

compliment and good will, which it
would be churlish to deprecate, the

It has about it a lack both of practi

neither relevant nor polite. The

to campaign requirements. Trhe
edi:or who is fit for his calling is
likely to be unfit for office, because
there is bet-ween the two the princi
pal of an irreconcilable antagonism;
t te functions ofthe one being mainly
critical, of the oth~er more or less
constructive. Politics, no less than
journalism, is a business to be~
Slearned by regular service and to be;

In returning thanks to you for my miracu
lous cure of eczema or salt rheum, I deem it
advisable to give you a detailed eccount of
my case, and as there is. and always will be
a prejudice against advertised remedies,
you have my consent to publi;"h this testi
nonial. and all inquiries, by letter or in per- 1
son. I will cheerfully answer. I do this that
people who goon year afteryear paying out
large sums of money to incompetent physi
clans and receive no cure, or even reliet, or
end in filling a premature grave, as was near
ly!my case may be induced to make trial or
the wonderful VCi;CLRA REMEDihs.
At the age of three months a ra.-h made its
appeitrance on my face. A physician was
called. le said teething was the cause, he pre
scribed some coo.ing medicine, but the sores
spread to my ears and head. Another 31. D.
was called. He professed to know all about
the case, called it "King's Evil," and pre
scribed gunpowder, brimstone, a,*1 lard
mixed into a salve, but the dispase continu'l.
They could not do anything with it Another.
prescribed borax water and flour; another,
linseed poultices. None of them did me any
good at all, but made me worse. The disease
continued unabated; it spread to my armps
and legs. till I was laid up entirely, and from
continual sitting on the floor on a pillow my
limbscontracted so that I lost all control of
them, and was utterly helpless. My mother
would have to lift n,e out and into bed. I
could get around the house on my hands and
feet, but I could not get my clothes on at all.
and had to wear a sort of dressing gown. My
hair had all matted down or fallen off, and
my head, face, and ears were one scab. and
1 had to have a towel on my head all the
time in the summer to keep the flies off. My
parents consulted aprominent physician and
surgeon here inChicago (the other physicians
before mentionad were of Dundas and Ham
ilton, Canada), he sa d he could do nothing
ror map, that the cbances were that 1 WOUl
grow out of it. or that it would strike inward
y and kill me in 'iuie. He wanted to cut
the sinews or my legs so that i could walk,
but I would not let him, for if I did get better
I would have no control of them.
The disease continuo-4 in this'hianner until
I was seyenteen years ol?1, and one day in
January, 1S7,ir} tle t:icao Ti-ibune, 1 read
an iceount o ur inedicine's. They de
scribed my case so e adtly thit I thought, ag
a last ,esort, to give em-a trial.
When I first applied the (.hTt:URA. I. wns .
all raw and bleediug from scrat1hing myself,
but when I applied it I went asleep almost .
immediately, something. I had niot dune for
