PiOSPElITY LETTEIt. It is suff'eient to say that the Pros perity Investmllent antT Improvement ('onipany is not idle. They mean busi ness and only business. The men, not only in Newherry County and in South Carolina, but everywhere else in the United States of America who wage the irrepressi ble conflict between town and country will in the end come to woeful grief. The two are inseparably connected, and the two are mutually dependent upon each other. A live, enterprising and prosperous town, makes a live an< prosperous country, and vicc versa, and the man or men who endeavor to carry town against country and coun try against town .a-e certainly not working for the upbuilding of the towi or country. We are constitutionally opposed t< boycotting. We don't think it right, wi don't think it nanly, and we don' think it Democratic; but just now right now, we are inclined to boyco Harrison, Wananaker and MIcKin ley with all their protection tariff, al of which we know little about, and w think we'll boycot politics in all of it nonessentials which occupy such : prominent position just now, and w will calmly and serenely run the Pros perity Hotel awhile before trying t run the Kimbal House or the Ponce di Leon. Some men can keep a sral boarding house, but they can't run big hotel. The closing exercises of Prosperit i High School will take place June 13t1 and 14th.

We have been having plenty of rait r and "general green" has made his ap f pearance among "king cotton," and ii some places has the advantage. Some of our farmers are offering ii per acre to get their cotton chopped oun Beden baugh Bros., are remodeli n their thresher. A considerable quantity of wheat an -o.tts is being cut this week. TIh1is is th farmiers' busiest season of the year. Miss Viney Stockman, of Mt. Pil grim, returned home Saturday. afte having spent three weeks in this com inunity. The St. Luke's Democratic Club wil meet next Saturday evening at o'clock. WVe have heard ever since we wer.e little plow-boy that whenever your ea burned some one was talking abou you, and if that be true, surely Capt Tillman's burns all the time, as i name is about the second word farme] speak when they meet. There neve was such a determination among fari mers as there is now. The opposin factions are endeavoring to reconcil them by telling them that there is n] use in being so en,thusiastic about Till man for there is no other candidate i the field to oppose him, but you cannc( make them believe it; they are unde the impression that there is being sorm one brought out secretly, and probabl; will not be announced until the cot vention meets in Columbia, and the are determined to be prepared to defer the candidate whcever he may be. A 'on.sieitious Officer. It never occurred to the (lerk o ('ourt that an extra term needed to ie advertised, his attention never having been called to the subject, and thern being in the order for the special tern no mention of advertising. He felt however, that the omission to adver tise being the ontission of an otiicia dUty, thougl unittelntonai, ie wa: under obligation to correct the error as far as possibtle. When, therefore. Judge Iziar de cided on Tuesday that the Court wa: "no Court" at all, and that le wouk not sign pay certificates for the juror: and constables who had beenl in at tendance, the Clerk determined to pay the entire amounti, $145.>0 out of hii own pocket. This seems right hard, e-pecially in view of the fact that it is beyo<nd que tion there would have been no Cour anyway-no jury trials, because tih jurors were all let of on their own Ie tition; no equity Court, because of i h uncertainity as to its legality (it otlte points. So that, as a matter of fact, al was actually done that would hacv been done had the Clerk advertise4 the special termi.

Kinar' ought not only not to be exp 1eted I sustain this loss, biut ought. 1t1i to i alloweu to do it-especially as ther would have been no court anywa. e The only remedy. we suppose, is a Act of the General Assembly rein bursing him, and we feel quite sure th people would approve such a Ilueasur B heartily.

Nor has there ever been a line jotted >n the map with our beautiful, pro gressive city as its terminus that had behind it a wealthier or more powerful company. They have already in operation four or five hundred miles of road, and every foot of it is not only laid with steel rail and rock ballast, but the en ire system is equipped with the cost iest and most improved patterns oj rolling stock.
