E. H. AU LL, EDITOR. TIU PASSING OF CRUM. The statement has come from Wash ington that Crum, the negro who has been so prominently mentioned in con nection with the position of collector of the port of Charleston, will not be ap pointed. The Washington correspond ent of the News and Couries gives as a reason that "the President, since re turning from his Southern trip, has re ceived information reflecting upon Dr. Crum's political past, which renders his appointment, heretofore accepted as assured, impossible." It seems that the President, as soon as he returned from his Mississippi bear hunt, called upon all who opposed Crum's selection to give reasons sup porting their position. Among the ob jections to the appointment urged was "that Crum went to the Minneapolis National Convention (held in 1892) as an anti-Harrison man, and while there made a deal with the Harrison mana gers by which he was promised the postmastership in Charleston in return for his political services if he voted for Harrison." Crum three months later was nominated by President Harrison for the position, but the nomination was so' vigorously opposed in the sen ate by the friends of the defeated Blaine, that it was finally withdrawn. Crum, of course, denies the charge, but his opponents and those in a posi tion to know state emphatically that there is no probability of his being ap pointed. It is thought by some that the real r:ason for the President's decision not to appoint Crum is, not the charges that have been brought against him, but that the President, during his visit to Charleston during the Exposition in the early part of this year, made a promise to the Charleston people, through representative business men, that he would give heed to their wishes in the matter of appointments, and that he would not place negroes in prominent positions in Charleston against the wishes of the Charleston people. Whatever may be the reason, the people of Charleston and the peo ple of the whole State are to be con gratulated upon the fact that the im portant position of collector of the Charleston port will not be filled by a negro. __ Capt. John M. Patrick, of Anderson, will be assistant adjutant and inspector * general under Gen.' Frost. Capt. Pat * rick in the last campaign was one of Gen. Frost's opponents. He is a pleas ant gentleman and well versed in mili tary tactics. In the hands of Gens. Frost and Patrick the business of the adjutant and inspector- general's office will not suffer.

All the News Around Bachman Chapel and Union Academy Intetestingly Told By T. J. W. When we picked up The Herald that contained our last letter we were made to think of the preacher who preached entirely from manuscript. He looked down. as he thoughr. upon the third page and cahed out ti:irdliy soie ihrec or four times, when a little gi,l .i,:i1 g near by said: "I sai thirdly go out of the window a few m:nutes ago." So this must have been the case with our last letter, as about half of it failed to appear. Boys, be careful, and don't let any more blow out of the window, as it often causes me to forfeit my word. There have been more oats sown this fall than was a year ago, but some less wheat. The crops are about gathered and our cribs have more corn and peas in them than for many past years. The cotton crop turned out a few more bales than we once thought. Potatoes in abundance, plenty of turnips and sour krout, with several good hogs to kill. So don't you see the county is in a pretty good shape to make another crop. I don't believe I ever heard such a demand for pigs as is now. But it's no wonder. This is what I predicted last summer when the shoats were all being killed up and wasted in barbecues. I told you all that woeful waste made woeful want. After all this waste, if there has been anybody benefitted it's the successful candidates. So we sug gest that they meet together at once and order one or two car loads of pigs to supply this much needed demand. Mr. Editor, we make you chairman of this order. So you must call your mem bers together and act at once. Miss Eoline Werts, sister of Superin tendent of Education E. S. Werts, is teaching the Jolly Street School. There were quite a number of young folks at our home last Saturday night to enjoy a musical entertainment. We delight in being with them when they act with such good manners and behavior. It makes us think of the days when we were young. Our school will observe Thanksgiving day; or at least the children will cease from their daily studies and hunt rab bits, birds and romp around in general. It's a piy we couldn't all meet in our respective places of worship and raise our united voices in thanks and praise to God for his manifold blessings. This would look like Thanksgiving indeed. But it seems that the church has lost sight of the intention of the day, and the devil is claiming it for a great big celebration of his own. Or perhaps our preachers think their members are en titled to one big day every now and then in the service of the devil. Mr. John I. Franklin is visiting his uncle Dave Franklin, of Molohon sec tion, a few days this week. Prof. D. A. Quattlebaum, in com pany with Mr. Luther Moore and sis ters, Misses Bessie and Mary, came over last Mturday and spent the night with his parents and friends. Miss Lilla Baker, of Long Lane, spent last week in this section visiting friends and relatives. Miss Lilla is an excel lent lady and we enjoyed her company very much. Mr. Jno. Baker, brother of Miss Lilla, also spent Sunday and Sunday night in this section. Old Aunt Katie Gribben is seriously ill, not expected to live many days. Miss Mary Sligh and Mrs. Mattie Sligh, of Slighs, visited Mr. J. K. Epps and family last Saturday night. Mr. J. E. Long is spending a few days this week in the uppei- part of the county. Our young friend, Mr. Clarence Sum mers, of Newberry, passed through this section last Sunday. Its a little un common to see Clarence in this section. Pop yo.ur whip young friend, we are not going to tell on you just now. I have wondered for some time why it was that my old frienk Sigma had be come dumbfounded. Now, my old friend, if you don't come over and tell me the whole story, I will let the cat out of the sack. Yes, I almost forgot, Mr. Editor, when must I come after my pigs? It's a pity that there's to be a con test between Messrs. Wicker and Ruff over the honor Peadea, which was given Mr. M. L. Wicker at a recent election held in that section. If we understand right, Mr. Wicker is fully entitled to wear the honor, and we take the liberty to make the following suggestion: that this election stand confimed and the citizens of this community att their next meeting confer upon Mr. D. A. Ruff the honor of H. and H., which by interpre tation means Hog and Hominy. We believe Mr. Ruff is fully entitled to this honor, for according to the last a*ccount he had taken in 26 loads of corn and was not done gathering. We believe this will be satisfactory to Mr. Ruff, as he is a reasonable man and knows it is no use for one man to~wear all the honors. We have always heard that it took cold weather to save pork, but we find that warm weather is much the best. There's many a hog living that would have been butchered had the weather been cold. Well, it will soon be time for our new law makers to assemble. We are look ing forward with bright hopes to see some much needed changes made in our ounty government law. Editor Aull has something good in store along this ine, and we hope he will meet the ap proval of the delegation of the whole State. We will have something to say in this connection in a future letter. T. J. W. Nov. 26, 1902.
