r., Two weeks of the campaign have been completed. Tillman and Talbert have livened up a little and had a passage or two, but otherwise the gubernatorial candidates are dwelling in harmony, ad vocating the same doctrines, inciuding the dispensary, and complimenting the ladies. Dr. Timmerman talked back to Mr. Tillman the other day and Mr. Tal bert is advocating the doctrine that the tax of the white people for schools should go to the education of white children, and the tax paid by the negro should be all that the negro children should have. Apart from these inci dents and slight differences it is a har monious and a unanimous campaign among the candidates for governor. From the reports it looks that Mr. Heyward is the favorite, but then it should be remembered that the party has been in his section of the State. The candidates for Lieutenant-Gover nor have been getting on very well ex cept the passages between' Mr. Blease and Mr. Gary. They do not seem ex actly to agree as to how the other one's record has been on the dispensary. We understood two years ago that Mr. Gary was something of a local optionist. Mr. Blease seems able to hold his own in the passages while Col. Sloan goes ahead and does not clash with his op ponents. Mr. Gunter and 11r. Stevenson are still sparring though the reporter says it is strictly parliamentary. The candidates for Secretary of State seem to be moving along smoothly. Col. J. Harvey Wilson is from Lee County and has been a member of the Legislature for several years. Mr. Jesse Gantt is from Spartanburg and is at present chief clerk in the office of Secretary of State, and is familiar with the duties of the office and entire ly competent. The other candidate is Col. J. T. Austin of Greenville, who has also seen service in the Legislature. For Adjutant General is Col. Jno. D. Frost who is a born military man, a graduate of the Citadel, served in the Spanish war as adjutant of the first regiment, and is at present assistant ad jutant general, and has done good work for the department. Col. J. C. Boyd, of Greenville, has long been prominent in the volunteer service, and Col. J. M. Patrick, of Anderson, who has a mili tary training. Mr. Paul Ayer, also of Anderson, and George Douglas Rouse, of Charleston. For Comptroller General is A. W. Jones who was a clerk in the office in Columbia, but who resigned when he became a candidate, and who was for several years Auditor of Abbeville County, a very efficient man. Col. N. W. Brooker who made the race two years ago and was for a long time in the office of Secretary of State. Sena tor W. H. Sharp, of Lexington, is also a candidate and he is a good stump .speaker. Mr. G. L Walker, of Green ville, and at present one of the clerks in the office, is also a candidate. He served Greenville as county treasurer before he went to Columbia. These gentlemen as well as those for Adju tant General are making a harmonious campaign. For Railroad Commissioner there are about ten candidates. We do not know all of them personally. Mr. J. C. Wil born who has held the job for eight years wantls six more. Then there is 'Senator Ban~ks L. Caughman, of Saluda. Mr. J. G. Wolling, of Fairfield, who is a farmer and a merchant and at one time worked in the shops at Helena. Mr. Jno. G. Mobley, also of Fairfield, who is a member of the legislature. Mr. W. Boyd Evans who was Governor Ellerbe's private secretary. Mr. Cans ler, of York, Mr. Jepson, of Florence, and Mr. H. H. Prince, of Anderson, and Berry, of Darlington, and Mr. H. * J. Kinard, of Ninety-Six, who is a member of the Legislature. Mr. Caughman and Mr. Wilborn have been having some words but no harm done yet. This we believe covers the field of those who are aspiring for State offices. The Treasurer, Mr. Jennings, has no opposition.________ Mr. A. B. Cargile, editor of the Lee County Leader, in writing of the Sena torial campaign meeting in that county, after reviewing the speeches of the several candidates comes to the conclu sion to give his support to Col. George Johnstone, and has the following to say: "His opening speech at Columbia was a veritable gem. We have known Col. Johnstone personally for fourteen years, and no man is more appreciated at his home. A prominent gentleman said of him: 'He is a fluent, forceful speaker, a bold and aggressive debater, able to hold his own with any man or set of men, and best of all. he is a lifelong and staunch Democrat, and possesses a thorough, liberal and finished educa tion.' Having lived but fifteen miles apart for several years, we can not be censured for supporting Col. Johnstone, practically an old neighbor. When aught is successfully established,against him, we'll drop him, 'instanter." Today is dividend day and the holders of stocks and bonds will be made happy, provided their stocks are dividend pav ing. The State of South Carolina will pay out about $175,000 in interest. In Newberry the Newberry Cotton Mills, the National Bank, the Savings Bank, and the Commercial Bank will pay out $25,000 in dividends today. That is not bad. Some of the premises around the city would be improved by a little cleaning and the use of disinfectants. We can +..,d ~ Af erful in the use of The correspondent of the Greenville News, in reviewing the Senatorial can vas in Sunday's paper has the following to sz.: of Col. George Johnstone: "Hon. George Johnstone is the orator of the party. Hi, word pictures are sp lendid. His oratory, however, never impresses one a.; bombast, but is sus tained throughout and has the ring of sin,;rity back of it. Col. Johnstone's speeches make fine impressions, and he possesses the confidence of the people wherever he goes." In the changes made in the Atlantic Coast Line railroad by its purchase of the Plant System, we are glad to note the promotion of Mr. W. J. Craig, for merly of Augusta. He was passenger and freight agent of the C., & W. C. He is now made general passenger agent of the Atlantic Coast Line with headquarters at Wilmington, N. C. Mr. Craig is a first-class railroad man and always the courteous gentleman, and the Coast Line has done well in giv ing him this promotion. With Mr. Cleveland speaking at the Tilden meeting for harmony and speak ing of a large part of the Democracy as husks, and Mr. Bryan coming back at him in strong language, the prospect for harmony in the ranks is not very encouraging. If there is to be harmony in the Democratic fold there must be a mutual understanding among the leaders, and there must be compromise without a sacrifice of principle. Neither side must think it is the w'ole Demo cratic party or the ermodiment of Democratic principles and that every thing else is husks for swine. Sam Jones says: "Democratic har mony is an impossibility this side of some burials in the Democratic ranks," political burials, of course. Mr. Cleveland and Mr. Bryan and Mr. Watterson, the brilliant editor, repre sent three classes who are all mad with each other, and it looks, if we are ever to get together in sufficient harmony to win a victory, we must hunt a new leader. Down here we are all Demo crats and are likely to remain such for a long time to come. We do not see how the action of the Newberry bar in the matter of Mr. Stevenson's appointment to hold an extra court should have any effect upon the race for Attorney General. It is a fact that some of the bar did not care to have the court at the time named. It is also a fact that some of the cases which it was desired to try were against the Seaboard Air Line of which road Mr. Stevenson was at that time attorney, and of course the lawyers would not have consented to go to trial with these cases before a judge who was at the time attorney for the road. But that fact was no reflection upon Mr. Stevenson as a man or a lawyer. Mr. Stevenson and Mr. Gunter are both good men and good lawyers and either one is fully capable of discharging the duties of the office to which they as pire. Because Mr. Gunter has been ,the Assistant Attorney General is rio bar to his aspiring to the position of Attorney General. We know him to be capable and efficient and a student, and the State will not suffer if he is elected, and it now looks that he is going to be elected. Mr. George R. Koester, in a long in tervie w in the daily newspapers, has given what he considers the reasons why his appointment as internal revenue collector was not confirmed by the Sen ate. He was appointed by the Presi dent on the 21st of last October, when Congress was not in session, and has been in charge since the 4th of Novem ber. The Senate has not confirmed his nomination, and when that body ad journs his commission will expire. He does not expect reappointment. The main reason he gives for the ac tion of the Senate in refusing to con firm his nomination is the charge that he took part in the Gaston lynching af. fair in 1893, first made by the State, and then taken up by Deas and other negro politicians. He had satisfied the President of his innocence and the President had stood te him. He thinks that Senator Tillman did him more harm than Deas, The State, or any one else. "He dared not openly fight me on the only charge aga.inst me, for his lynching record is too well known. He was too shrewd to weaken himself at home, for his success proves that a majority of the white voters of this State agree with him in favoring lynch. ing as a punishment for one crime, so, with characteristic shrewdness, he made his 'negro in the sand' and other violent speeches in the Senate, even as serting that he favored lynching for rape, and then in conversation with Re publican Senators would say he wanted me confirmed, that I was 'his sort of a man,' that I was a lyncher like him and he would vote for me. That cooked my goose. The Republican Senators did not want to expose themselves to taunts from him of having voted for a man he told them was a lyncher." Mr. Koester will in the future devote his time to his duties as manager of the Record Publishing Co. He does not ask nor expect reappointment from the President. Savtd a wom"fns Life.

Hallman, of Winston, *N. C., and Miss Josie S. White, the efficient assistant teacher of the West End schcol, were married in the West End Baptist church Thursday evening. June 26th. 1902, in the presence of a large crowd of relatives and friends. The cei emony was performed by Rev. G. A. Wright, assisted by Rev. N. N. Burton. The church was most beauti fully decorated with potted plants and ivy. The pyramid of palms forming the center back ground, was of itself a most beautiful and artistic piece of work. Promptly at half past eight o'clock the bridal party entered the church, marching to the strains of Mendels sohn's Wedding March, played by Miss Blease in a most charming manner. First came the little flower girls, Azile White and Gladys Hicks, nieces of the bride, dressed in white, bearing baskets of white roses, leading the way to the altar as gracefully as white doves. Then followed the ushers, Messrs. W. L. Devore and 0. R. Casey, M. A. Outz and George Addy, and these by Mr. B. B. Hallman and Miss Hattie Johnson, Mr. Lewis Jones and Miss Lucy Jones, Mr. John Morgan and Miss Mattie Hallman. Then came the bride who was most beautifully gowned in white organdie, with trimmings of chiffon and satin ribbons, and carrying a bou quet of bride's roses. She was leaning on the arm or her maid of honor, Miss Della Foster. They were met in front of the altar by the groom, supported by Mr. John T. Hutchison. The bride and groom met under a lovely four leaf clover made of field daisies, and while standing under this emblem of good luck the holy bonds were tied. The bridesmaids were dressed in white and carried bouquets of pink roses. The ceremory was very pretty and impres sive. The whole scene was a most charming one. After the ceremony the bridal party and a few special friends were delight fully entertained by the bride's aunts, the Misses White, in their home. The bride and groom left last Friday for their future home in Winston, N. C. NOMINATIONS. For C oDgress.
