THE COUNTY RECORD.
THURSDAY, JUNE 30. 1910.
One 'Swallow doesn't make a
summer, but one mosquito can
keep awake a drummer.
As a rule, when a candidate
comes seeking advice, it isn't advice
he wants, but backing.
In several counties not a single
candidate has yet announced for j
the Legislature. The Newberry i
Observer thinks it may be necessary
to conscript the Legislative
quota to which that county is
^entitled.
The Dillon Herald proudly proclaims
that Congressman Ellerbe
has promised Dillon the next public
building in the Sixth district.
Well, maybe Mr Ellerbe will not
have any say-so as to how the
few crumbs of patronage handed
out to this district shall be distributed
after next March. At
any rate, it seems poor politics to
make rash promises before the
primary.
That was a rough deal given a
party of Woodruff fishermen last
week, who, divesting themselves
of their garments, went swimming
in the Enoree, whose amber waters
are kissed by the willows that
fringe its classie borders. But,
alas, a herd of hungry Ik wines !
came along and devoured?ate up,
?the fishermen's gaudy garments,
or at least that is the story told
by the veracious chronicler for
the Columbia State. We have
heard of all kinds of "fishermen's
luck," but venture to
say that never l>efore did a bunch
of anglers have their clothes eaten
by cows.
From State and Congressional
candidates and their friends wej
have received numerous n-quw^
to run free complimentary articles ,
boosting the candidates for the various
offices they seek. Several
years ago we cut out the free notice
business, even cards of thanks, 1
from county candidates. If the
matter submitted is worth publishing
it is surely worth paying '
for and it surely costs money toi(
set type. Our rate for any kind '
of political notice (except an- <
no incement cards) is one cent a !
word for each insertion. We \
w
can't afford to l>car the burden i
1
of l>oosting a field full of candi- j
dates and we play no favorites.
State Campaign Pointers.
The State campaign opened last
Wednesday, June 22, at Sumter.
The six candidates for Governor
are: C L Blease, John T Duncan,
C C Featherstone, F H Hyatt, T G
McLeod and J G Richards. The
"paramount issue'' as it has l>een
for years, still seems to be the liquor
question. Featherstone, Hyatt
and Richards have declared for
State-wide prohibition, Blease and
McLeod for local option, while Duncan
seems to have no pronounced
views on the whiskev problem.
Thb other candidate are a? fol
lows:
Leutenant Governor?E \V Duvall
of Cheraw and Chas A Smith of
Timraonsville.
Attorney General?J F Lyon of
Abbeville and B B Evans of Columbia.
Adjutant General?Capt J M
Richardson of Charleston, Maj Chas
Newnham of Columbia and Col W
\V Moore of Barnwell.
For Railroad Commissioner?O
C Scarborough of Summerton, McDuffie
Hampton of Columbia, G H
j Mahon of Greenville,and last,but by
no means least,the only and original
"Cansler ofTirzah," (the home Qf
this combination we believe is York
icounty?or maybe it's Lancaster).
! They say Cansler wears his same
dinky little cap, only this year it is
! embellished with "Cansler of TirI
zah" sewed across the visor in inch
S high letters.

FREAKS OF THE LIGHTNING.
Shocked a Man,a Boy and a Mole
Yesterday.
Yesterday (Wednesday) afternoon
during the storm of lightning and
thunder that visited here, the lightning
was particularly severe near
Zeb Dostoffice. and found a mark in
several instances, we are informed.
Mr W T Phillips, who lives near
Central church, was standing on the
piazza of his dwelling catching the
rain as it fell from the eaves in a
zinc bucket, when a bolt from a
nearby cloud struck the metal bucket,
ran up his arm and knocked him
down, stunning him and blistering
his arm. It was a narrow escape
indeed. ?. ^
At Mr Sid Brown's, a
plantation, the lightning 4 u ,
small colored boy on the toe t
bumped a mule in the face in three
different places, according to our informant,
who added that the bolt did
dent the mule's visage somewhat,but
did no serious harm.
