This is Gala Week in Charleston, and many Darlingtonians are enjoy ing the festivities in the city by the sea. A hpil fell here on Sunday last, ansPwe learn that there was consid erable snow in some parts of the county. Tennyson & DawsOn’s Grand Gift Carnival gave an entertainment at the Opera House last night. They will appear again to-night. The Ladies of the Presbyterian Church will conduct the Bazaar dur ing the Fair, the proceeds of which will go to the parsonage fund. Mr. Theodore DeHon, General Agent for the News and Courier, was in town And gave ns a pleasant call on Friday. The furniture, cooking utensils, etc., belonging to the estate of Mrs. C. E. Hymes will be sold at public outcry Monday next. Both the criminal and civil dock ets at this term of court are very heavy, and the court will probably be in sessioi|for three weeks. The Twentieth Annual Fair of the Darlington ■ Agricultural and Me chanical Fair Company will be held at their grounds on Thursday and Friday of this week. Rev. H.,C. Du Bose will assist the pastor of the Presbyterian church in the communion service next Nabbath.

The public are cordially invited to attend all these services. Mr. Do Bose is a Mission ary of riie Southern ’ Presbyterian Churh, and is located at Soochow, China; He returns to his native land for a short season of rest. Darling ton welcomes her noble son to the home of his childhood. The News and Courier says: “Mr. E. Mclv* Williamson, of Darling ton County, who is in the city taking in the Gala Week festivities, is a prominent and prosperous farmer, and is an enthusiastic lover of his native laud. He said that the cot ton crop in his county this year is the best that has been made si rice the war. 'Pile corn crop was very good and the ^farmers are on a general good footing. “Darlington is a great cdumy,” said Mr. Williamson, “and the city of Darlington is a great place. To show yon how it has grown, I can say that in the last ten years its population has grown from 800 tS 4,000. And the place is still growing.” There is a flutter of excitement in the hearts of Darlington’s fair daughters, consequent on the an nouncement, to a select circle of his friends, that a well known cotton buyer, desirous of joining the society of Saint Benedict, is about to start out in an entirely new line from buy ing cotton. He is thinking of es tablishing a bureau, of which he bistres to^be president, to meet with and-adviseThe -young ladies on the latest styles of dresses, bonnets and ■hats, what would be becoming to their several styles of beauty, and also what sort of costumes they should wear when visiting the large cities. With a view of encouraging this laudable enterprise in every way possible, the columns of The Herald will be open to any hints on the sub ject which our lady friends may send ns. Communications must reach ns not later than Mondays. On the,'plantation of Mrs. Lydia Witherspoon, about six miles West of here, on Tuesday, October 21st, about 6 o’clock F. m., J. G. Rains was shot and killed by his nephew, J. H. Witherspoon. The particlara of the killing as related by eye witnesses are aboat as follows: Witherspoon, who was working a share crop on said plantation, on which Worth & Worth, of Wilnyngton, N. C., had a lieu, and who had pltfced in their attor ney’s hands papers for the surrender of said ?crop. The attorneys ap pointed Rains as their agent to have the crop gathered. ’ On the evening of the kiTl{ng Rains, with his son John, wept over to see about the cot ton that had been picked that day and found one Lee Parnell and With- erspoon in the act of removing cot ton from tfcfeifield, when Rains and Parnell became involved in an alter- 'cation and Witherspoon shot Rains with k gnp, killing him instantly, ftie murdered man was sixty years >M and had a family of several grown is said, to have been dworking man and a and his untimely greatly deplored.

Hudson, Pre siding Judge: The Grand Jury make the follow ing as their final presentment: During the year we have examined the offices and books of the several county officers, and find nothing to bring to the attention of the Court. In the Court House we find the jury rooms in unsatisfactory condi tion We recommend that they be furnished with comfortable settees and tables, and that more attention be paid to their cleanliness, and es pecially that proper means be taken to prevent the urinals from becoming offensive. Such settees as are pro vided frequently in the w aiting rooms at the railroad depots we suggest would be economical and suitable. In the Sheriff’s office we find there is need of a case for the preservation of such executions as have to be kept in that office. The one now in use is, in cur judgment, not suited for the purpose. We have examined the Official Bonds of all the County officers, and find them, in our judgment, adequate to protect the interests of the County and State. At the Poor House we find the Superintendent’s house in a bad con dition—the roof leaking, the plaster ing falling, and part of the underi pinning giving way. The cottages have the windows badly broken, many of them with very few whole panes of glass. The inmates appear to be otherwise as well provided for as the means provided will allow, and we have no complaints from any of them. We regard the repairs re ferred to as of great importance and demanding immediate attention from the County Commissioners. The condition of the Public Roads in the County seems to have reached a point beyond the endurance of a long-suffering public. Complaints come to us from every part of the county of important roads badly worked or not worked at all, many of the smaller bridges impassible or dangerous, and travel in some places almost impossible. In the opinion of many of onr citizens the road laws of the State are inadequate to the urgent state of our country; bnt the Grand Jury are of the opinion that the present laws, if enforced, would at least be sufficient to give to the people of every part of the county roads that would admit of travel with an ordinary load, and without dan ger to horse or vehicle. The prac tice of plowing into the limits of the public roads, which has often been complained of, seems to continue. We think it should be the duty of the County Commissioners to prevent these trespasses on the rights of the public, and to take legal steps to bring the parties -so trespassing to justice. At the present term of the Court many cases have been sent up for ag gravated assault and battery. In our judgment a large proportion of these cases ought to have been adjudicated by the Trial Justices ascases of sim ple assault and battery within their jurisdiction. This course, if pur sued, would have not only saved the expense to the county of the investi gation by the Grand Jury, but would have promptly administered justice to the guilty parties pronortioned to the gravity of the offence committed. We have heard with interest the remarks of the presiding Judge on the term of service of jurors.' We recommend that the law requiring petit jurors to serve during the whole term of court he amended, and that the jurors be summoned to serve on ly for one week. Thanking Your Honor for the clearness of your instructions, aud for the courtesy and assistance ex tended to us in the discharge of our duties. Respectfully submitted, Wm. A. Carrigan, Foreman.

Editor Record:—Your editorial headed “Have They the Right,” pub lished on the 2l8t, was read with much pleasure by the Straightout Democrats here. It is a complete answer to the question: “Is it true that citizens can deny and ignore the authority of the Democratic party and yet claim to be the proper expo nents?” What constitutes the Dem ocratic party? Is it the machinery of the party or certain fundamental principles? Now; if the machinery of the party is the party, then I ad mit that I am out of the party, be cause Tillman and his followers have charge of that machinery; bnt if the Democratic party is a party of prin ciples, then 1 contend that I am in the party, and Tillman out. How can we tell what a party is except by its platform and the utterances of its loaders? Now, lets examine these a little, and what do we find ? We find that that Tillman convention gulped down at one swallow Green back Weaver’s entire platform. In stead of declaring in favor of “honest money, the gold aud silver coinage of the constitution,” they say: “Third, we demand the abolition of national banks, and that legal tender treasury notes be issued in sufficient volume to do the business of the country on a cash system, and that all the mon ey issued by the government shall be legal tender in payment of all debts, both public and private.” This is only one of the many curious planks in this so-called Democratic plat form. Now, lets examine some of the methods and utterances of some Tillmanite leaders. I will take this county; but what was done here was no doubt done all over the State. The Tillmanites held meetings all o-efthe county and passed resolu tions that “we will support no man for any office who does not endorse B. IL Tillman aud the March plat form.” These resolutions practical ly disfranchised all anti-Tillman Democrats. A county convention is called to do a single thing, but when it convenes, the Tillmanites, finding themselves in a majority, proceed di rectly in the face of the constitution of the party to do a number of other things. The nominee for Congress from this district is not only in favor of that un-Democratic sub-treasury scheme, but is also understood to be pledged not to be bound by. the party caucus in Washington. The nominees on the Legislative ticket from this county, who, by the way, were put out by a Tillman cau cus, are pledged not to vote for Wade Hampton for the Senate unless he will pledge himself to work and vote for the “farmers’ demands,” among them the sub-treasury bill. Much more might be said, but I think this sufficient to show that the Tillman ites have abandoned Democratic doc trines, but hold to the name. What would be thought of a preacher who would say I am a Methodist, but don’t believe in the discipline, or a Presbyaerian.but don’t believe in the confession of faith? Would he be regarded as a Methodist or Prebyte- rian? But snppose a majority of his congregation should say, “We agree with him,” and elect him to preach for them, and the minority should withdraw and establish an other church calling it by the same name, now which would be the church, the one that held the prop erty, etc., or the one that adhered to the doctrines pf the church ? Why, of course, the congregation—though in the minority—which was ortho dox. So it is with us. Tillman clings to the machinery and name, but has abandoned 'the doctrines of the party. We cling to the time honored doctrines of the Democracy, and we are, therefore, the Dpmocrat- ic party. • - A. B.

To the V oters or Darlington County: I beg to announce to you that I am still a candidate for the office of School Com missioner. I am not an Independent candidate, bpt claim to be the nominee of the Convention. I was not present at it but am' informed by a great many who were that I was twice nominated, fairly and honestly, first by the ayes and sec ondly by a standing vote. If this be so 1 appeal confidently to the people to do justice to me. The office of School Com missioner should depend solely upon the character of the man and his qualifica tions as a teacher. You have my record before you. Let me be judged by it. - Yours very respectfully, W. H. EVANS. The State Fair. t On page 10 of the Premium List of the State Agricultural and Mechanical Socie ty for the present year, will be found the offer of Premiums amounting in the ag gregate to $500, for the Counties making the best display of County Products, to be shown at the Fair November 10, 1890. The requirements are: “To the Coun ty making the Best and Largest Displav of Products grown or produced by resi dents of the County, Pemiums will be awarded as follows: 1st Premium, $350; 2nd Premium, $160; 3rd Premium $100— In all, $500. AH Grain must be shown in quautitles not less than one-half bushel. The Judges making the award in this con test, will consider first, Quality; second, Quantity ; third, Variety; and fourth, Ar rangement. Articles for the County dis play will not count in the Individual Premium.” 1 beg that you call special attention to this feature, aud urge your County to be a competitor in the contest. Aside from the money involved, County pride should stimnlate our farmers to enter heartily into the matter, and thus show the pro gress of Agriculture in our State. I take it that the most affective plan would be for the several County Allian ces from the Sub-Alliances, to canvass the matter at an early day, and thus become organized, so that by the first of Novem ber each County will be able to know what will be shown, and at what Railroad Sta tion shipments will be made. Railroads require prepayment of freight, but upon its return to the original point of shipment, with the Certificate of. the Secretary that the same had been on ex hibition, the amount will be refunded.
