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.

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.
The jurors who have b een compelled
by the venire, to attend ('ourt two day
ou"ht to have beenl paid, of cour-se
But it appears to us that MIr. 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.
It is hardly necessary to add that th
above is entirely of our own motion
and without the knowledge or conset
of the Clerk.-Newberry Observer.

THE THREE C's ROAD.
augusta Is Anxious to Have the Branch
from Newberry.
[Augusta Chroniele, 25th.]
Never has a railroad been projected
that will result in more real, substan
tal good for Augusta than the Charles
on, Cincinnati and Chicago.
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.
The Augusta division will open ui
probably the richest section of Sout1i
Carolina, give this city the benefit o1
the inexhaustible timber and mnineral
resources of North Carolina, and at the
same time form by far the shortest
ine from Augusta to Cincinnati and
the West.
The Three C's company are building
their road from Charleston through to
Ashland, Ky., a distance of over 0C
miles, but tbey also wish con nection
with Augusta, and afterward iltend
constructing another sterpi to Port
Royal. The gentlemeu interested in
the completion of the road are wort I
more than $25,000,000, yet, for the pur
poses of further extention, they art
desirous of interesting English capi
talists. For this reason alone they
desired that the people of August:
should in some way express their ap
proval and appreciation of the enter
prise.
Yesterday this wa done by mean
of an enthbusiastic meeting at the Ex
change.
President J. J. Doughty, Mr. Z. WV
Car wile, Maj. W. T. Gary and Maj. J
A. A. West spoke very eloquently o
the Tbree C's and the benefits to be
derived by Augusta from its construe
tion to this city. It was clearly show:
how increased business arid greate
possibilities would be op-ened up fo
Augusta. The situation was quit
thoroughly explained, after which 31aj
West introduced the following resulu
tions which were unanimlously adoj
ted:
Resolved, That we welcome th
Charleston, Cincinnati- and (1hicag
railroad to A ugusta.
Resolved further, that we pledge
this great enterprise a cordial and sub
stantial support.
Resolved further, That copies of thies
resolutions be forwarded to the pri
dent of the Charleston, Cincinnati ami
Chicago railroad, and also be furn:ishei
to our daily papers with a request tha
they be p)ublished.
The meeting then adjourned.

[Greenville News.]
Our ably and fearfully edited con
temporary, the Charleston World, edi
torially announces Cooel Gary, of
Abbeville, as a cawriidate for Attorney
General on the Tillman ticket and plat
form and calls on him to take the
stump in Tillman's behalf. The same
issue of the ably and fearfully edited
contemporary, however, has a long in
terview with Col. Y. J. Pope, of New
berry, in which there is nothing much
perceptible beyond very distinct symnp
tonhs that that estimable gentleman is
a candidate for the same office on the
same ticket and platform. So we sup
pose he will be called on to take the
stump also. Exactly how he and Col.
Gary will gce and haw in double har
ness we do not know, but our ably and
fearfully edited contemporary will
doubtless discover and enunciate a basis
of harmony.
Pimples, blotches, scaly skin, .ugly
