THE UNION TIMES
Slick To The Democracy.
In politics as in most other thins them
are a few lead res and many followers*.
This year there is and will be a superabundance
of the former in this State. 1I??sides
the. regular Democratic party there
an? now two others, one an embryo, the
other a rallying invalid clamoring for recruits.
J. W. Bowden, memlior of the
National committee for South Carolina,
of the American silver party, is endeavoring
to organize a silver parly, and Capt.
Melton is endeavoring to bring to life the
defunct Republican fabric.
We do not deem it necessary to say
anything about tho Republican party as
it is a good rule never to six>ak ill i?f the
dead, and we are sure wo have nothing
good to say a b o u t it . The Republican
party is dead in this state and
will stay dead as long as it is dominated
by negroes. The little scheme of having
separate clubs for whites and colored
wont work. It would split any parly all
to pieces before election day. Wo shall
never fear the Republican party in this
State until it is turn" I entirely over to
white men-nothing left to tho negroes
but tho right and the disposition to vote.
This free silver move, however, deserves
more consideration. Wo believe that
it is an unwise and an unsafe move, and
we urge all Democrats to stick to the old
ship a while longer. It has always lieon
in favor of free silver according to our
interpretation of the platform and we liclievo
it will Ik* so again. The trouble has
been, not with our party, but with tin;
men whom we have placed at the head
of it. We want free silver. So does the
Democratic party if the last platform
means anything at all. We cannot see
rnai a mange m mo name or a parry
making certain demands would assure us
in any measure that the provisions ol" the
platform would lie carried out by those
whom we have elected. We must fall
back ultimately on the honor, integrity
and patriotism of those whom we elect to
represent us. The present national administration
lias lieen very unpopular
with us. Why? Because it has failed
to supimrt the platform as we understood
it. The platform was alright, but it has
not lieen carried out. We should not
blame the party and pull out from it because
we put impro|>er men at the head
of it. We want free silver as much as
any, but we believe that the lies I way to
get it is to battle for it under the banner
of the Democratic party-that dear old
, banner that we followed through thedark
days of reconstriction and which hasal
ways given us good govern men t, except
when we; the people, have placed the
staff in bad hands. All we will have to
do is to stick to it and control it. We
cannot expect to bring relief to the producers
and farmers of the South and West
if wo yield the control of it to the politic
inns ami gammerso! Uic .North ami Kast.
We ask lor l?iva?l ami lliey give us a
stone. We would get the same tiling
from a Sii\er l'arly controlled l>y the
same element. Stiek to the 1)..noeracy
and elect jiatriotie men is wire we say.
Karnes an l Niunbe reWe
were nujuiri11*4 I lie name of a particular
street in town the ot her <lay ami
there was sueli a difference of opinion
ahout the matter tli.it we had to ask
quite a number of people before there
were a sullieient mnnl?or agreeing on the
same name to convince us that it was
correct. Tie re are several streets the
nana s of which are known by 1 veryone;
hut the names of others are known by
so few that it would lie hard to liud them
out by inquiring on the streets.
Our town is well laid olTand the streets
all have names. lint the people don't
know the names. Now w want to suggest
to our enterprising council, that is 1
ever watchful of the welfare and prosperity
of the town, that the names of the
different streets be in lie de 1 by pioper
signs at convenient joints. It might be
well also to have the numbers of th>
liosues indicated by figures in brass.
This work could bedoneat comparatively
SlHilll cost. It wouid be a convenience
now. It will be a necessity in a very few
yoitcs. u nv ii<>i nave !l none now? The
tiling is worth consideration.

Complaints are iN-imr made in different
flirts of the Stale that lit" dispensaries
are not heiiar ?*??n? io-t?< 1 j>- ;.er!y and in t
jwcoidaneo with the law. At (Jreenville
last Monday, .Iudjre liar! found it necessary

to the matter, lie said that soiuooftlio

INSURANCE! INSURANCE!
FIRE!! *8* LIFE!!
I am now representing the
Bankers Guarantee Life Association
in Life Insurance
and am enabled to write as
good and from one half to1
one third cheaper insurance
than the old line companies.
As an example, look at a pol*1,^
n.?..i
iv-y in mvi uaiiM-'i."! ill UOIliparison
with cither of the old
line companies-(t h e N. Y.
Mutual, for instance.) $238.80
is the annual p r e in i u 111
charged by this company at
age 40 to secure a t w e n t y
year limited payment policy
of $6000. With our company,
the Bankers, we charge only
$98.58, a difference of $ 140.22.
Note this difference. Now if
you can manage your own affairs,
without the assistance
of this old line company to
act as your guardian, and will
invest this amount ($140.22)
each year yourself, it will produce
at 6 per cent, compound
interest at the expiration of
19 years the snug little sum of
$5017. In case of death with
this policy in an old line company
the beneficiary would only
rccive the face of the
policy or .?6000.00. With ours
the face of the policy and all j
accretions. Studv this and !
see what the old line Compa-j
nies are doing for you.
I also represent the Lloyds j
Fire Insurance Companies!
and will write near every kind !
of risk 15 per cent cheaper;
than the old line companies, i
Count ry risks such as Ginner- f
ies, Grist Mills, Saw Mil's, | ^
Barns etc. will he glad to
write.
All those wishing insurance 1
of either kind 1 would be glad ;
if they will call on me.

Do you remember what many of our competitors predicted
five years ago, when we landed in Union and: hung our
sign to the breeze? They told you we could not last long?
a few months or perhaps a year?and we would have to move
on. We told you we had come to stay, and here, we are today
doing double the amount of business we have ever done
before. Selling more
Dry Goods, Sloes, Hals, and ClOilig
Than any other half dozen concerns here. Why is this so?
You know the answer. We buy our goods right and are then
satisfied with with one close profit. We don't want the earth;
but we do
WANT YOUR TRADE,
And our close prices, square and fair dealing will convince
you of the fact.
We are selling reven papers of Garden St col (Huist's) for
f> cents, or Jiroe papers for Li cents.
Two I?aiis of So" ing Thread for 1 cent
One cent will hu v a paper of good i ins. Needles, a Lead
Pencil and dozens of other useful articles.
Women's G. G. lhitton Shoo 09 cents.
Men's Solid Full Stock Shoo 0."? I'ciiO
