Crop Prospects. >v, _ ; We have made d?igent enquiry the past week of crop prospects in the County, and with scarcely an exception, the j are much im? proved. A number of oar best farmers are . _ ;makrag fair cra?s of cotton, while the corn, where well worked,. ismagoiacent. 3?ine Bice We have been shown a head of rice quite ripe, taken from a patch of new ground clear? ed np in Green- Swamp, and planted the 15th May. The stalks average nearly 5 feet, and the crop will make between 30 and 40 bush? els per acre. The variety of rice is know as . Gold Rice* He is Not a Candidate. We see the name of R. D. Lee, Esq., placed 7;*nwng.lh* candidates, credited to Sumter by the JV??, and Courier. Th?3 is a mistake. Mr. Lee is noi> and* has not been, a candi? date. Another Denomination. Wa have been requested to announce that a 'Tree- Communion Denomination Baptist" Church was organized in Sumter Aug. 15th bj Sider J.R. Johnson, of Columbia,, and rWthe?t Rev. T". J. Johnson, colored, ha3 been chosen pastor. It bas a membership of eigh? teen. Tb? Greenville Military Institute. This-Scbool w?? open Sept. 15th, and offers many inducements to parents, in choosing a place to educate their boys. The enviable . location of Greenville* in point of healthful? ness and attractiveness, and the many educa? tional advantages add greatly to the claims this school has as a first class institu? tion of learning. Glenn Springs. We see from the JVezw and Courier that Glenn's is well patronized. More than three hundred guests are there and all available v space is crowded. Carterville. The medicinal qualities of the water in the new well at Cartersville, Darlington Co. are attracting quite a number of visitors Mrs. Marion Sanders, Mrs. W. R. Delgar, Mr3. R. P. Franks of Sumter and Mr3. Dr. Dennis of BishopvRIe are now there and- are much . pleased with the bene?cial effects resulting som the use of the water. Teachers will notice the advertisement; of Capt W. R. Delgar, calling for a meeting of the Trustees of Sumter School District to elect teachers for the schools ia this District. Sheriff Sanders bas just returned from Darlington with J. J. Timmons who has been arrested under a charge of obtaining good3 under false pretenses. The offence charged jffas committed some months ago. George R. Lombard & Co. manufacture everything in the way of JMill and Boiler and Engine supplies. Tbey also are extensive dealers- ia. Sugar Rollers, Cane Mills, ?c. See Card. Mr. F. A. Tradewell has shown us some .specimens of his corn crop which are very fine. The amount of manure used was com? paratively small, but after the crop was up he applied 75 lbs. Richland Pride Guano per f acre, to4be growing corn, and he thinks that fertilizer had much to do with the remarka? bly fine growth of his crop. Mr. Tbos. K, Scott sends ns a specimen of Jus Milo maize seed, which be has grown this year. Those who have tried this grain under favorable conditions speak very highly of the substantial claims, of Milo as one of the best ? forage cross. Mr Scott is a Richland farmer. : Bist of Candidates.

The Secretary of the County Executive Committee has sent copies of Primary Regu? lations to each Club Secretary, and it is hoped there will be prompt attention.to its requirements. As it is necessary that there'.be a meeting of each club prior to the Primary, to arrange for its-proper management, w* would suggest that sueh meeting be called not later than Saturday, 4th September. We will be glad to publish any announcements of such meet? ings, and to further in every way possible tba necessary arrangements for having a full and fair Primary election. Braining Turkey Creek, A report has been circulated through the County that the candidates for County Com? missioner who live a* or near Sumter, have expressed their intention, if elected, of drain? ing Turkey Creek at the expense of the County. Mr. R. F. Hoyt requests us to say that, so far as he is. concerned, the report is entirely unfounded.

The Associatioa'mec Aug. lltb, at Brand? ing's mill, with the following officers : J. D. Graham, President ; J. D- Wilder, Vice President j- T. M. DeLorme Secretary and Treasurer. Twenty-two survivors were pre? sent. Resolutions of condolence upon the death of comrade J. P. Ard were read and adopted and a committee was appointed to draft simi? lar resolutions on the death of Dr. J. I. Mil? ler. Resolutions warmly endorsing the appoint? ment of Col. Graham for Clerk of the Court were unanimously adopted. A committee was appointed to solicit con tribations to aid ia completing the Monu? ment. Io view of the intimate relations with Hon. W.. 2. Leitner, of the 2nd S. C. Volunteers, during their service in the field Mr. T. M. DeLorme offered the following resolutions which were unanimously adopted : Resolved 1st. That the Survivors cf Go. D. 2nd S. C. Volunteers is bivouac assembled have beard with the greatest pleasure of the nomiaation of W. Z.

That the Secretary be in? structed, to forward a copy of these resolu? tions to Hon. W. Z- Leitner. The election for officers resulted ia the choice of the old officers. After a- seroptaoua dinner the meeting1 ad? journed to meet on 2nd Wednesday of Aug. 1887, at usual place, unless time and place be changed by the Ex. Committee, of which each member will have due-notice. We feel very sad in writing up this meeting.

Mr. Editor : I am surprised that any poor farmer should oppose the Agricultural and Mechanical College and favor being taxed to support'the University aud Citadel, We are so involved that we must economize our resources or go to the wall. What advan? tage do we reap from either the University or Citadel to compensate for the money spent? 1 venture to say that nearly every student who attend could easily pay his tuition and wo "poor farmers" arc taxed to educate indi? viduals who need no help, and when they are educated will shun agricultural and mechani? cal labor-tba basis of all wealthy a3 degrad? ing and low. On the other band if the State will establish an Agricultural and Mechanical College on the Mississippi plan, and allow each County to levy a tax to support as mauy beneficiaries as they choose to send, et the cost cf a very email tax, each county could send a number of students who would be taught how to renovate our worn outlands and who would, when they are educated, go to. work and increase tho value of all proper? ty in tbe State, tbus compensating property holders for the small amount of tax spent on them. Without that help our farmer boys are destined to grow up in ignorance, and judging from the cumber of office seekers', will either have to take their chances at being elected to some picayune office ergo West. Our lands are poor and need educated labor. Let us demand a change, and by reducing S*ate and County expenses, weean get that labor- at very little extra cost, and every edu? cated laborer when he comes back home will benefit the whole neighborhood from which he is sent. One word as to thc free schools as now managed. They are worse than use? less: they educate nobody and check private schools or destroy them outside of towns. All classes of our citizens, even the Lawyers, will be our friends if we keep coo! and de? mand nothing but our rights-tho right of every Democrat to an economical Gover?. mentrun iu tue interest of the whole people and when we try to capture a Convention let us have votes snough to do it. and if we have not the votos let us keep cool and not make enemies of our friends and fellow-citizen, be? cause they will not support the particular in? dividual we wish lo exalt. Wc areal: Demo? crats. American citizens, disposed to Hero worship which will split ns into factions if we do not sopport oriuciples and not men. A VOTER. THE PB ATT GIN. Mr. R. F. Hoyt is still sole agent for the Pratt Gin ia Sumter County and wiil un? pleased to take orders from farmers in want of j same. The Pratt Gin is so well and so widely known from its excellent qualities that no words are needed to recommend it. Thc farmers already know that it is the beat gin S?lu. -ALSO The Peerless Engines, made by the Geiser Manufacturing Co., Presses and other ma? chinery. Cali and see him for anything aeeded. A TERRIBLE EXPLOSION, H?gan and Boyle's Lumber Mill Blown Up.. The steam mill of Messrs. Hogan & Boyle near Greeley ville, blew up at ll o'clock Ibis morniog. Both Messrs. Hogan and Boyle, the owners, with Messrs. Hutson, Bradshaw and Smith, and one colored man were killed. The force of the explosion was so great that one of thc bodies was thrown J50 yards. Death. Mr. Wm. P. Wright, of Providence, Sum? ter, Co., S. C , has been in feeble health for a long time, disqualifying him for business of any kind. In this period he has "been entire? ly uncomplaining and patient to the Divine will. A month or so ago he expressed him? self as impressed that he would not live long. For the past three morphs he bas been an in? tense sufferer. He died on last Thursday, Aug. 19th, in his 74th year, tr. hope of a blissful immortal? ity. Mr. Wright was a good and useful citizen, and will be missed ;n his family and neighborhood. A large company attended his burial services, which wcro performed by ReVs*Wm. W. Mood, at Providence Church. * Shiloh Items, Smton, S. a, Aug. 19, 1886. Mr. Editor: We are now supplied with plenty of rain. That of last night waa the heaviest that has visited tbis section in a long while, and was much needed. . The crop prospect in this section is very good, almost a fair average. Cotton is open? ing well. Mr. W. F. Johnson, will have a bale ready for market next week. The roads have all been worked, and the embankment across Pudding Swamp is nearly finished. We are indebted to Mr. C. T. Player, Jr., for the good bridges which have been put down on. his section of road. Why can't other overseers do so? The Norwood, and Crooked Branch B. B. Clubs played the second game last Saturday, the score was 39 to 34 in faver of Crooked Branch. Candidates are rather scarce as yet, but we are looking for them as this is a good coun? try down here now. Just come down, and tell us what you want. Of course a farmer don't mind to stand in the hot sunshine two hours, tc hear of all the great changes to be made for his own. good, &c. The health of the community is generally good only a few cases of sickness. Last night, cturiBg a thunder storm Abe Pierson (colored) was struck and instantly killed by lightning. His family were all pre? paring for supper. No one else was severely hurt, he leaves a wife and six children. ZEPH. A Little More Dew. PRIVATEER S. C., Aug. 20, 1886. Mr. Editor: As "Dew" is pretty freely handled in your last, I ask space for a short statement. I do not intend to enter into a newspaper controversy with one who claims kin with Tecumseh Sherman and so constantly proves the relationship a3 does M?. H. R. Thomas. I mentioned that a ticket was being made; and, at Mr. H. R. Thomas' request, procured j a copy, remarking as I read the names: "It is only in the interest of Coi. Earle for Attorney General ; I see no objection to it; they are all good uteri. Mr. Thomas could hardly wait for me to finish reading it, but must have it and very excitedly began to read it, commenting: "lawyer," "doctor," "saw-niill man," "drug gist," &c , &c, "five town men and only five country men," It is all a mistake that the committee j){ farmers instructed him-to "ex? pose" th?3 ticket, as he claims. Three mem? bers of the committee made strong arguments against anything like class opposition, saying it would kill the farmers' move to bring it into the Convention, but advised opposing, individually, any objectionable names on it as each saw fit for himself. TLis was heartily approved by the other two members. But Mr. H. B. Thomas had bia blood up and was for war; he gave in the committee room a faint idea of how he would do in the- Conven? tion, and illustrated the old adage : "Whom the Gods wish to destroy they first make mad." It is absurd to say that I was kicked by the action of the Convention in sendiug a delega? tion to Columbia in the interest of Col. Earle. I wrote, without consultation with any one, and introduced the resolutions adopted by the Privateer Democratic Club (I believe the only club ia the County to do so)-indorsing Col. Earle for Attorney General. The Con? vention carried out my wishes, and I respect? fully submit to the intelligent reader to say whether I was kicked or somebody else. It is equally absurd for him to-claim that one thousand voters were disfranchised bv this action of the Convention. The Republi? can- party might as well claim that two-mil? lion voters were disfranchised because the Democrats had a majority in the Electoral College and elected Grover Cleveland, Presi? dent. The right of the majority to rule is one of the fundamental principles of popular, free, government. Take it away, and a mili? tary .despotism, or anarchy and chaos, wilt result. Mr. H. R. Thomas need never expect to drive the honest, self-respecting farmers of Sumter County by traducing their manhood with bis pet phrases of "slaves," &c. I was forcibly reminded of what we read fabout Cataiine and bis conspiracy against Rome. Mr. H. R. Thomas when be threatens the division of the Democratic party and the fall of America, seems to wish to pose like the old arch-traitor ; and his harrangues ia the Convc-ntiou were like a rehearsal io a play ; whether he aimed at trag? edy or comedy, I do not know, he certainly secceeded in a miserable farce. He is badly mistaken if be thinks bc has any considerable following, or that the Dem? ocratic party ?3 dependant upon him for its stability, or that America will go to destruc? tion because, forsooth, he chose to bellow out his "bull yearling-poetry." Ko sir, there are not five men in the .County who get their political religion from his-"bible." And- as for America's quaking when he "spouts," his blatant discord has no more effect upon ber destiny than ;'the wiggling of ao infaut sar? dine upon the Collossus cf Rhodes." E. W.
