We read in the news reports one <
day that the coal production is abun- :
dunt and accumulating at the mines
so rapidly that work will have to be ]
curtailed, the next day we read that ,
the Southern railroad company is j
compelled to lay off certain trains for s
lack of fuel. The mine operators cry ,
"car shortage." Certainly there must j
be "something rotten in Denmark." ,

forever without there being a few \
days work expendexd on them. We
venture the assertion that not one hun- j
died dollars has not been spent dur- j
ing the past year and a half on improvement
and upkeep of the unpav- <
ed streets of the town. It is not for j
lack of funds that this condition pre- .
vails from what we can gather, but ]
rather due to negligence.
i
The Salesmanship Contest conduct- >
ed by The County Record the past t
' eight weeks came to a successful close i
Saturday afternoon. The management
of The County Record is well t
pleased with the support given its '<
candidal, s in the contest by both old 1
subscril rs and especially new ones,
as we are always glad to make new
acquain ances. We regret to find
fVa+ a Old vtill nilito a mimher
of nam< > on our mail list of parties
who failed to renew their subscription
during this campaign. Many of
these have already expired and would
have been stricken from our mail list
but we wished to give them a chance
to renew through some of the workers
in the contest. The paper will
go out this week to these delinquents,
but will be cut off next week.

To the Democratic voters of Williamsburg
county:
I desire to express to you my heartfelt
thanks for the splendid support
which you gave me in Tuesday's primary.
And to merely say that I am
grateful to you, would be a mild expression
of what I really feel. My
election as your senator marks the
attainment of a laudable ambition of
lone standine, which was to be elect
ed senator from my native county, j
I fully realize that this honorable ^
position carries with it many obligations,
which I trust with divine guid- s
aace to discharge to the best interest
of my constituents. *
During the next four years many ,
perplexing problems will confront us.
We are passing through a period of ,
transition and change. And no man
can tell when things will become
? 1 ? ? ?f U/\ rrfin.

tlemen whom you will send with me j
I promise that whatever questions t
may arise, my only thought shall always
be for the best interest cf my ^
people. As it will be impossible for
me to see my friends personally, I ^
take this method of expressing to j
them my appreciation for their active
support. Again thanking you, I am t
gratefully yours. ^

Card of Thanks.
1 wish to thank my friends for the 1
support given me in the first primary
and to say that I will be in the second
race.
I have reason to believe that a
good many who would have voted for
me did not do so on account of my
physical condition; and I wish to say
that though I am not able to do any
laborious work, my health has stead- ^
ily improved for the past few months
and I fell confident that I will be able
to perform the duties of the magistrate's
office. My recovery from my J
recent illness has been slow but steady
and I need employment,

That wealthy Charleston merchant
who allowed a "stage star" to frisk
him out of a lot of good coin with a
set of diamond-set dice in New York
a few days ago should have the satisfaction
of knowing that the job
was carried out in splendid style by <
a darned pretty woman.

A series of murders and homicides |

Ruby McCutchen.
