erly of Cheraw, who resigned to
aecept a similar position wh.cli was
offered him at the University of
'ennessee. Capt. Spain graduated

ed.
The End ot the Primary.
The second primary tor the nom
ination of candidates for Treasurer
aud Auditor passed off vety quiet
y last Thursday. As Mr. H. E. C.
Fountain bad no opposition for the
office of Treasurer, the interest in
the election centered entirely in the
race for Auditor. A light vote was
polled throughout the county and
as will be seen by the official re
turns the race for this office w as
very close ; Mr. W. H. Lawrence
beating Mr. R. B. Hepburn by a ma
jority of only twelve votes. With
the nominations of Messrs. Foun
tain and Lawrence for Treasurer
and Auditor respectively, the Dem
ocratic county ticket for the ensu
ing election is complete.

op to Sept. 1 as against 29 bales
for the same period of last year.

will seriously affect it both as to
quantity aud quality.

Slant RE» FLAGS,
We congratulate ourselves, and thank the trade, for coming
to Darlington. We are doing well and that without
much effort, but the Racket Store is always
in the lead because right will beat might,
in spite of all the fiery darts of the
adversary. Such has been clear
ly shown since we have
been here; and bear
in mind that the
Mmket Stoxe
Is here to stay
until we are minded to
move it, and is open to all
alike on fair terms. It seems as if
the RACKET and its manager has been
a great mystery to the curious ; we are sim
ply a man like other men ; and came from Wil
mington, N. C. As to character, I mind my own
business, live strictly a moral life, do all the good I can,
and leave the rest with Fate. We can give references as to
the above, from the Governor down to the minor profes
sions in our State. As to the ( goods we handle
they are as new and fresh and stylish as any
sold on the market. We have four Head Quar
ters and over two millions to back us ; we are as
numerous in the United States and still growing,
because right will beat might, and our mottoes
are three, and are wrought out of sound solid bu
siness principles : Sell as we buv ; cash on deliv
ery ; one price to all alike. On an average we
stve to the consumer 33 per cent, on the dollar
over old prices.
All classes of domestics and imported Dress Goods,
Notions, Shoes, Hats, Gloves, Trimmings. Buttons,
Thread, Silks, Tin, Crockery and Glass-ware, Silver
and gold Jewelry, table-ware, &c.; Sewing Machines,
Organs, and a full stock of the latest Novelties in Mil
linery Goods. Call and see our 10c socks, always sold
for 25 cents. See our $1.20 shoe, sold for $1.75. Call
and get Socks and Stockings from 3 1-2 cents up ; 110
of the best needles and 9 shawl pins, all for 10 cents.
All you have to do to be convinced that our goods
and prices are unsurpassed is to call in person ; we
mean to cany a splendid stock of every thing the
people need this fall.
'We etlso Axettre
Ample lot room tor our customers and accommodations for waiting
ladies and children. We held our peace nntil we have secured a boat Of
witnesses to substantiate what we aay in print, hence we blow. We
have tamed oo the flood gate of bargains; so we say to the working peo
ple and oppressed farmers, come and see and be convinced. Thanks for
all favors.
(Red Hag Racket, SHEPARD,

We also offer to the trade the beet Dress Skirts, plain aad
