Schum pert Endorsed for Solicitor-Primary Plan Favored for Congres sional Nomination. t Pursuant to the call issued, a Demo- e c eratic county convention was held in t e, the Court House on last Saturday. The a Y convention was called to order by ' County Chairman W. H. Hunt, Jr., 0 a. and Col. J. C. S. Brown was named as b temporary chairman; E. H. Aull, see- a retary, and Jas. I. Davidson, assistant o V. secretary. The delegates were enrolled, i nearly all clubs being represented. i1 On motion of Dr. S. Pope the tempo i. rary organization was made permanent. P y On motion of Col. George Johnstone tl C. 3r. R. T. C. Hunter and _Mr. J. C. Wilson were elected vice-presidents. t: Dr. S. Pope introduced the following * resolution: r. Resolved, That the delegates front r 1 this body to the Congressional Conven- t tion are hereby instructed to vote for the primary system in the approaching Congressional election. Dr. Pope spoke in favor of his resoiu tion. George B. Cromer said he could o see no reason for a primary election t Y now as we are likely to have oMAy one c candidate. Two years ago Judge Coth b- ran did not go before the people and ai was elected and there was no reason a why he should this year. 1 Dr. Pope in reply said we had no right to presume that there will be no Sopposition, and if the primary systemI was good enough two years ago there is P no reason why it should not be adopted c again this time. He wanted if possible to know how men stood on the issues u- of the day before he voted for them. b y. Dr. Jas. McIntosh spoke against the i resolution. He thought we were well enough acquainted with the position of t pJudge Cothran. We know what he >j thought and he will satisfy us. r Mr. J. W. Scott was in favor of the t primary and the election of Judge. Cothran had nothing to do with it. The question was upon the adoption of a a Democratic principle and the election e- of Judge Cothran had nothing to do - with the questions. Dr. Pope called for l the ayes and noes, but the motion was e, withdrawn. The chairman ruled that g e- on the aye and no vote according to le precedent at former convention dele ly gates present could not be allowed to le vote for the whole club. Mr. J. E. Brown moved that the whole matter be indefinitely postponed. Upon the call of the roll 138 votes were cast no and 5 for postponement. Mr. J. W. i- Scott moved that we vote by ballot on original motion. Dr. Jas. McIntosh offered following i s. resolution which was adopted. i s, Moved, That delegates from any 1 a- township, be allowed to vote the full vote of that township. r- The vote was then taken on Dr. \ Pope's resolution and resulted 148 in favor of the resolution for primary and '74 against the resolution. The resolu- ( tion was adopted. -( While this vote was being counted dMar. J. K. P. Goggans who attended es the St. Louis Convention was called 0. upon and addressed the convention. dMr. Goggans spoke briefly of .his 2 visit. He said he was more im pressed than ever before, that with fi Cleveland and Thurman there was 1 ~d certain Democratic victory in N ovem r- ber. He .traveled from St. Louis to ~ :h Chicago and found the ticket oi the a of Democracy in high favor through all e thatsection. e 3Ir. Y. J. Pope moved that eight del egates be nom3inated to attend the Con Ly gressional Convention. y Upon mlotion of Col. George John at stone the candidacy of Col. 0. L. Schumnpert for Solicitor wvas heartily me and unanimously endorsed. >y IA number of nomninatious were mnade r. Ifor delegates to the Congressional Con vention but no one seemed to desire to p go and all declined. tM3r. G~eorge Johnstone moved that the President be allowed to nominate ia delegates and ini case lie is absent the a- chairman of the Executive Committee.I The motion was. adopted and tile chair le named the following after the conven re tion adjourned and obtained their coin sent to go: >u Elbert H. Aull, J. B. Campbell, J. e, 3M. Johnstone, S. J. MIcCaughrin, G. 31M. Girardeau, Frank MIoon, Harry H-. Blease, WV. Y. Fair. t On motion of D. A.

Pope mioved that the executive . h committee be authorized to prepare a constitution and p)resent it to the next a- county convention for adoption. ne Col. Hunt further announced that a athe executive committee had decided to I open the county campaign on thle 17thl of July, and the primary election had been fixed for the 26th of August if this ni (late does not conflict with the judicial and congressional contests provided the 1 .n rimryw be adopted for these offices.t S The following aeteapitet efor tile county carempaign: inint - Township 2-Wadlington's, Juily 17.

Newberry, S. C. PROSPERITY LETTEER. More than 9,000 bales of cotton have been sold in our market since Sept 1st. Mrs. R. E. Wilson, of Brunswick, Ga., is the guest of her sister, Mrs. J. E. Sehumpert. She will spend a month or two with her relatives before-return ing. Miss Carrie Mayfield has returned to her home in Greenville. Misses Mary and Nora Miller arrived at home on last Saturday. They have attended Dallas College, N. C., during the past year. Mr. N. B. Birge, of Shermaif, Tex., on his way to several Northern cities stopped several days with W. S. Birge. Misses Mamie Lyles and Claudia Irby after enjoying a two weeks visit here have returned home. We expect ere long about two of our young men will be crossing the river at Lyles Ford. On last Thursday Eian a l Berry and Miss Corrie Rivers, of Factoryville, sought our quiet town where they would not be interrupted by the old folks while Judge Ilair-perforied the marriage ceremony making them man and wife. With the mercury reaching up in the nineties for the past week or ten days, the condition of the cotton plant and also of corn on the sandy lands has greatly improved. There is room for inmuch greater improvement still. The intelligence of the death of Mrs. A. R. Sligh, wife of Rev. J. A. Sligh, cast a feeling of sorrow over our entire community. She was a very estima ble lady, devoted wife, tender and loving mother, and admired and re vered by all who knew her. Rev. Mr. Sligh has the deep heart-felt syni pathies of our community in this his irreparable loss and sad bereavement. Peace to her dust. An exceeding bold and daring rob bery on a small scale was committed in our town on Sunday night. Norman's Drug store was entered about 9 o'clock while peaceable and Christian people were worshipping in church. The boldness of the act consists in the en trance from the Main street or front be ing made by prizing the door until breaking the lock catch, at such an early hour and while a lamp was burn ing brightly on the inside. The thief realized very little for his daring deed, he only securing about $15 in wares, consisting of one ladies' necklace, two watch chains, about one dozen pocket knives, and a lot of cigars. Strong grounds for suspicion point to a certain individual whose name is withheld from the public for the present. The ease will be investigated. The sales of ice cream on last Thurs day night, by the ladies, to assist the town council in raising funds to enable them to build a suitable house over th( mineral well, amounted to $28.80. When it is remembered that the ladies sold cream only, we think the sumr a handsome one. The town coun cil have subscribed $50 to this object, and private subscriptions have aug mented the amount by $253.50. This gives the total sum of only a little over $100, an amount far too small to accom plish the object in view. We are noi sure that' the modes employed are the proper ones by which to raise the nec essary funds. We do think that a sys tem of taxation would be the propel way. .It certainly is the only just way. Trhe charter of the town authorizes th( authorities to annually lay a two mill tax ad valorem, on all property, botia personal and real, except such as may be exempt by law. As there is no tas at all levied, the town authorities arn continually cranmpcd. They can maki no public improvement, either to beau tify or increase the value of publi< propert,y. Trhe only source of revenu4 for the town is about $270, accruint from a capitation tax for street pur poses, and according to the letter o the law, the council cannot use any a this fund except for the working and improvement of the streets. Last yea the amount realized from all sources (besides capitation tax) market rents fines, license, &c., was about $1.50. This is a :pitiful sum to improve and ad vance the interests of the town. Th< amount is far too small to completa such arrangements in, around and ove: the wvell, as now contemplated to mak< it attractive and comfortable. By the subscription plan, the burden falli unequally. Some mien will alwa~ys sub scribe liberally, others who probabl3 reap the same benefits, subscribe al most nothing, hence the mode of rais ing funds by taxation seems to be th< only equitable and just way to rais< money for public purposes, and is to b< commended. By this plan our councils would not always be cramped,but would be in a position to advance the publi< interest of the place which we so muel desire. According to our view the firsi thing for the councll to do in this mineral well business, is to get a (quan titation analysis of the water. We think this absolutely necessary. It is futile to write and talk mineral water, when we do not knowv what per centunm of the various kinds o: minerals are in solution in the water. Give us thbis quantitative analysis, and then we can tell the public just what we have got in the way of a health res torative water. The council and the citizens would then be enabled to de cide whether or not it would be advis able to make any large expenditures on the premises. Give us this analysis at an early day-more anon.
