It, was soinewhat 0-e unexpected which happenied. Frank 11 Gary and A. loward 'atterson had a rough and tumble fight before a tousand Laurens people, men and wo VIeI. They fought with desperation ind determination until Jim Tillman a -(d others separated them, and then ticy wanted to get, back at each other. ad the ilncident oc'urred years ago iII ta l3 county, when there were a cart. I ad of pitols it it meeting, there vouid have been funieriais here tomor : but these days all the fecling em,s to be between the candidates. Today the result was two badly bruised* fi,ces and emphasis oi the style of .-aipaigning going oi, and if others showed the same spirit thero would be many more fisticufifs each day. 110W I 'STARTEA). lron day to (ay Ali. Patterson ham mucred at Mr. Gary about his Charles ton speech, reading the clippings and mnakinug the statemnents publ ished. Alr. Gary thought this peirsistent effort was to iake It appear indirectly that lie fitraddled in Charleston or favored local option while in Charleston, with It license featvre which lie insisted wits not the case, and that Patterson's of (ort by reading extrates was to place him inl a false position as to what lie had said and his announced attitude on the liquor question. As persistently its Mr. Pattersoi would make hi -.;tate Iments just so persiotcntly would MIr. Gary insist that his position in Charles I, --. aH elsewlier, was plain and un cquivocal and not intended to be nor wits it imisleading, and Mi-. Patterson kept oin with his statudiiemits as pub-. lished, and friom day to day this kept u1p and Mir. Patterson got me to send te papers his speech on this very mat ter and Mr. Gary was asked for his r,!ply, which have been both pubi 'si. Today Mr. Patterson repeated and reiterated about Mr. Gary's alieged straddle In Charleston. When Mr. Gary's turn came to speak he imne diately replied, as has been published, that ho did not, "straddle," and that his pobition then, as now, was plain. P'ATTERSON WANTED TO EXPLAIN. Mr. Patterson was sitting about live feet behind where Mr. Gary was speak ing and got up and said: "Mr. Gary, I want to explaini something.'' Mr. Gary turnaed squarely ar'oundl and said: "'Now. Mr. Patterson, I want to ask you plainly--Is what I have said abotit th at Chiarles toiiniattcr true?" Mr'. Patterson Said lhe would exp)lain. Mr. Gary r'eplied there was no0 tuse to explain, but insistedl on knowing wvhet,ber what lie had just said about the whole miatter' was trtie or not. )Aiti'ED GAlY TO PR1OV'E STiATE'MENT. Mre. P'atterson went on to say the t'anites1t wuild not agr'ee with Mi'. Gary, or something On that line. Mr i. l 'att,erson said lie dared him to prove his stat.ement by any of the candidates. \i r. Gary insisted on a diirect rep ly' as to wvhether his statement about the i harlecston speech was truie or not. fly t.his time the t,wo meni were wit,hin arms length, looking flieely' at each other aind no doubt, lookinlg for a blow. Mir. Patterseon said, yes, he doutled as baing corr'ect what Mr. Gary had said, if lie could not explain. Mir. Gary then said: ".If y'ou say my statemenit is iiot eorr'et you say what is not so." JOINED) 1. TIlE FRI AY. The t,wo men joined. Patteirson strtuck out and1( clahnis to have lilt first. There was not a second's ditTdr'ence in the passage of blows. Mr. Patterson struck Gary an unhanded lick tinder the left eye, which cut the skin for half an inch long. ULOOD) W AS COMMON. Gar'y hit Putterson on the mouith and cut the lip and stiruck him tinder the emye, juidging from the bruise. It wa1s not a minute before half a dozen men were arotind the two combatants, they were up against each other clinched and several blows wore passed, but, they were pulled apart. Gar'y was taken toward the front of the stand a-id Patterson to the back. They said inothing but were eager', and the watch ing crowds pressed up to the stand. YELLINO FOR BO0TH. Somo yelled for one candidate and some for another. Two policemen, Sheriff McCravey, Senator Tillman and Chairman Smith moved for every one to get back and sit down and get off the stand. By this time the candidates had mopped ol their faces and wiped the blood off, for blood moved from both of their bruises. GARY'S APOLOGY. When quiet was restored Mr. Gary faced the audience, somewhat dis. heoled and br.nised, and quivering all over, and with clinched hand, and spoko out and said when.he left home he de cided ho would be a gentleman and igive no possible offense to anyone and 1tur~n he would n take an;y insult from anyone. lie had treated Mr. Pat- It terson ias a gentleman and friend, but he had gone too far, and he would al low no man to Insult himin without, lit- .r ting him in the mouth. 0 Air. Gary apologized with feeling and almost tears for having fought, before P ladies, and expressed his deep regret at, the incident, then lie went oil and con Cluded his sp1eeh, cuttin g it here and there. 'A'iT'KUtSON Sf itIY. Mr. PattCrson was allowed to 1111keIC a statement and said ho was verry sorry for the occurrence. lie did not liku sui things. He arid Mr. Gary had been warm friends and be had been a staunch friend of the family, but when ever a man told him he lied he tried to put, his list in his mouth and give him the best he had in his shop. t tl Till'Y SiiAK' HIANDS, i Through the efforts of Clerk of Court e Bolt, Mr. Patte.son and Mr. Gary nict, bf shook hands and agreed to be friends b arid comrade.i to each other as when p they entered Iaur'ens. Of course nleither b of the contestant,s was hurt to any ex- I tent. b T1i,AIAN TOOK ilS 'iMARY. A fter the scrap it was uphill work n for all until Tilhlnan Was pretientel, and a he was received with enthusiasm. lie o whooped things ip 11aind had the boys 1 hurrahing. lie took a hanmd pri mary ind called ie up to the front to note I the vote. Not, a dozen vout I for probi U bition, but, when it camo to the vote for e the dispensary pretty much everybody d voted, and there was one of those old timne dispensary fields of upraised hands. ti IDlN'T 08.1;'4ABOUT Trm., Trm-l. Tillhan wtas happy and ;o did every body else seem to be, arid he remarked that there was nothing much in the Ll tralk of SOO tigers in Charleston and 200 a iII Columbia, and lie put io faith in h this talk and coninented on the evi dences of their being no tigers al .ut Laiurenls, and that there wure not near as many tigers as somo tr ied to make p out. The crowd was quite large and in the very best of humors. -The State. 10ho State Campali Meeting. We publish tihe report of the State campaign meeting held rLt Newberry from tile daily papers.

Y FAR, PD II We went up to the State campaign' veting last Friday to get a peep at -i StIte flouse caldidates. We shall Sovenl try to give t synopsis of the loceedings of the day, as regular re ,!rters were there to take care of that. Vo heard no ebtimato as to the size of 1i crowd, but would suppose that there Its filly 500 IeroIIs present, and it quite gratifying to 1mle as well as com limentary to the people of Newberry ounty to say that it was onm of the !itetit, sobertst, best behaved and at mtive State campign meet,ings that (, ever attended. The speaking evi eitly showed that there is but, one suc being discussed. That is the mi Eold cry-dispensary or so-called rohlibition. There Is no public ques onl untler the stui that hr' caused lore agitation and enthusiasm and un tiled for abuse than the dispensary tw, and the whole cry comes from the mrroom element; this great so-called rohibition movement in only a means 3inlg used to kill out the dispensary. ut we don't pretend to 'Hy that we aLVe nO )rOhlibitiOniStS at heaIt in the ate. We think that lien Tillnan's sertion that, there is an unholy ailli ice of preachers combined with the Id barkeepers all over the State is a ttle too broad. We have as good and ure-in-heart, prohibitionists now as od ever let the mun shine on, and this ass will vote for and maintai (he ispensary law. Why? Because they now that proh ibition Is not at all p rac e ic at thiHs time. Yoil had as well try >imke a river flow 1p) streai as to "event the peole of South Carolina -om drinking liquor absolutely, and ic good, moral people of the StBatc who rC not usii,,Z prohibition as a political obby know this to be a fact.. I could o on and take I) columns of space lowing the practicability of the dis eisary law, and the impracticability f prohibition, but there has been so iuch said along this line until it Is a ard mat,ter to say anything without sing the sentiments of others. The 'iends of the dispensary are perfectly tlied with the law. All this howl - oil hear- about Charleston, Columbia nd Greenville's blind tigers and the ,w not being enforced only comes -em violators of the law who have Iways beec using every ofort, to break down. Why Governor MeSweeney as become such a bad man just, since lie campaign opened is very easy ac ounted for. The Iloyt supporters now that MeSweeney is the standard earer of the dispensary fight, and he olds the llag In his hand, and the only 'ay to whip tile fight is to kill tile tiptain and get tho flock scattered. ovcrnor McSweeney didn't wait to see ow the tide was flowing so as to know ow to launch his boat that he might %nd eafely. Ills message to the Gene tl Assembly shows that lie s'ood for lie sanic prineilple (hon that lie does ow. A ud his speech at Newberry last ritlay showed to the people of the lity that lie is running on his own eit. 110 was the only one among is Comlietitors that held his head dve mud-sling ig and abusing other id idatca. A new scheme has lately 'isen from the prohibition wing. The lea is t.o get as many as possible of the ispensaryites to vote for Gary. T1his (ldone In order to weaken McSweeney, nowving that he will be the man to beat the aeontd race. But the people0 are elI up to such lIttle tricks, and tho 'lnds of the dispensary are as true to 1o cause now as they have eyer been. o you can jtust walt until the 28th of ils month and you will see McSweeney so above all these unjust accusations tat are' heaped upon01 himn. F'riends, e must stand by thle 0on0 who stands y our principle Irrespective of what ther's say. BIuIT who-that McSwee sy won't be in the second race. IIe ill not only be in the second race, but e, Miles B. McSweeney, will be the oveirnor of the State of South Caro na for the years of 1001 and 1902. CAlP'S OF A IIFERIENTl NATLUE. Bil11 GilIlam, a young negro lad of bout 18, stole a yearling from his Lther, Mack Giliam, last Wednesday Ight.. Bill1 is a natural born thief. IHe aus served a termi on the chain-gang ir house breaking, and has ben into >veral other stealing scr'apes which ave put, hIs father to no little trouble. Ill ran away from his father over a ear ago and lived in the upper part of uo cotunty. As soon) as Mack missed Is yearling he suspected his son, start :t out In putrsuit, tracking the yearling lie direction of Newbetrr.. As soon a he got to town he found that Billie ad sold the calf to Mr. Jno. C. Adams >r $8.00. As luick provided, Mr. Adams ad not paid the boy for the calf, and s soon as Billi got the glimpse of his ather he "burnt the wind." Mack as takeni out a warrant for his boy be re Magistrate Chappell, and says that e intends to push the matter to t,be xctont of the law. Mack also took out warrant before Magistrate Werls for ble arrest of Steve Salter who is said to e a p)artnier to the crime. Magittrate J. W. Wets requests us say that he is better prepared to arve the people now, as he has a regu er constable. Some slokm?ess seems to prevail among be hor-see. Mr. D. A. Fellers lost one f his best mules since I last wrote. 'his makes two recently. Mr. J1. K. pps also lost a three months old colt n Sunday last. Mumps have broken out in our fam y at last. The old man 'ChIps is look. g for a ease in about another week. A baseball ninu has recently been or anized in our section, near Cannon's reek.

Mr. )ominick not only does ,ood work, but is also accommodating. Tho dispensary was close( on last U'riday, campaign day, and Dispenser lptlng deserves imuch praise for keep ng it closed.

Hines of Manchester, ta., Mriting of his almost miraculous escape 'rom death, says: "ECxposure after mea des induced serlous lung trouble, which mded in consumption. I had frequent iemuorrhages and coughed night and lay. A i my doctors said I must soon lie. Then I began to use I)r. King's new I)iscovCry for Consum ption, which com-1 )Ietely cured me.
