S une people iiad dumb chills aud some had shaking agues These, however, wve the nervous people, but really it was a storm of wind, rain and electricity j such as wo have not had here in a long luue. Timt>e?s, fruit aud crops were all j eoiuewhai damaged. Tlie lop of a chimney to Mr. J. I. Lultlejohn's dwelling was hiown d >wii upon the hack shed of ' the house and it crushed through the roof into the lr-1 room of Mrs. john ami her I*o small boys and then th i rain poured througli the opening, a. d really was a lime to be frightened and nervous with Mr. Litllejohn's family. No one, however, was much hurt but Urn scare and anxiety the rest of the night was awful. Crops have revived very much since the rain. ''niton is opening some and fodder on the eatly corn is ripe, so farmers will have something to do from now on Mr. .Fames Gail man went up to Clemson last week and carried two stalks of his fine cot ton. and he says that it was the finest cotton tliat was exhibited at the farmer's meeting. Mr. Gallmau veiy readily engaged all the cotton seed he expects to have <> ' this fine variety at five dollars per bushel. Mr Gall man h, >s lie broke his land where be planted IIm cotton in toe spring twenty inches deep arid that it lias not .suffered any for j rain and lias boon quite green and grow- , iiigall the lime, while his other c.iilou ha suffered considerably and turned! yellow and slopped growing.

So far as re- i lates to ray division, will say that I have , never seen the roads in finer shape. I , have heard a number of prominent men , speak of the roads as being in the best shape they have ever seen them, and such is tri.s. Th it. not ifannm t hat. mv esteemed friend, Mr. Hey Det>ver, finds , so much to complain of and especially j the roads in his community, where we 1 have as good overseers as can be found anywhere?honest and honorable men at ' that. Let me answer him by asking a few questions. Did not one of the i overseers of whom you are complaining about, return you to Magistrate of Santuc a few years ago for refusing to perform road duty ? Is it not a fact that you will not work the p'iblic road, notwithstanding the fact that you are able to work in the field and in the shop for a livelihood ? Is it not an undisputed fact, that you are not on good terms with either of the gentlemen that have charge of the roads near you ? Is it not . a fact also that prior to your uncalled for attack on the roads, the overseers and myself, that you have never complained before the county board. In fact, do you not Teally intend ^his for my injury and for the good of some one of my opponent ? Have you ever applied for either oi the roads in question and failed to get them? Now, Hey Denver, I am well aware of the fact, and it can be proven without a shadow I of a doubt, that all of this is done | through prejudice au<l personal feelings. and not because yon are more patriotic I than the average tnx payers of Union | county. I am scwry to have to notice ; this matter at all, but feel that the light I should be turned on. No, Mr. Denver, your little game of smartness will not work, with all due respect to your feel j *Below will be fouud' what some of the overseers say. T.J. BETENnAUail, Supervisor. Mr. Editor:?I am sorry that 1 am farced to rise in defense of the roads ol ; Santuc township as against the attack of Hey Denver. I will say for the benefit of the public, that the roads of Santuc, i , with but few exceptions, are in excellent ; condition, also all over Union county wherever I have been. We are still due Santuc a week's work with chain gang ! and machine, after which Santuc roads ! will compare favorably with other roads in the county. I am sorry Hey Denver uwv. oaurf/muhM W/ tlltf Ujai'U llKC 11 mail 1q who wishes to be fair. Ilis attack is 9 unwarranted and uncalled for. . ? I. M. Mobley, O. C. at ( 'oi, Santuc, S. C., Aug. 18, 1902. Editor Union Times:?As Hey ? Denver in last week's Times makes seiiN, ous attack on road overseers and Supertie visor and his board, I being a road overn, seer feel called upon to make reply. In the first place he makes this unwarranted attack through personal enmity 7~, and for the purpose perhaps of defeating the present Supervisor for the purpose or perhaps of getting an appointment as [J1 road overseer. I deny any and all of his charges as refers to roads and road overseers in his immediate section. PI very I- dollar spent on my road has been faithx fully earned. a. Now as to roads in Santuc township ve they are as good as any in the county, e- Now I ask Mr. Hey Denver if the to whole trouble with him isn't for the folt. lowing reasons: For the enmity toward ? three of the road overseers in his immeM diate section. For the reason that his i. application for road overseer during Mr. tf Scott's term of office was refused, and for the reason that he has not yet secured j! the appointment as road overseer. For " the purpose of defeating the present 58 Supervisor with the hope that with a > y new Supervisor that he may get the long " wished for appointment as road overseer. y Now in conclusion I wish to say that j so far as I kuow Hey Denver is the oniy ' o.-io to complain as to roads in his im? mediate section. K.F.Johns. , Santuc, S. C., Auo. 18, 1902. - Editor Union Times:?In last issuo , * of Times there is complaint marie as to K condition of roads in Santuc township 0 by Hey I)euver, (E. W. Jeter). He mostly, by way of insinuation, biings grave charges against overseers of same, 7 and against the Supervisor and bis board. r At the outset I wisli to say tliat as I am one of the road overseers in his imt mediate Pection, that I feel it a duty to myself and to the Supervisor and his _ board to reply. ; In the iirst place, ho ia an enemy to , ] myself and Mr. Sims McDaniel (another i j oveiseer in his immediate section). . Through ill will toward we two, and > i perhaps for the purpose of defeating Mr. i ltotenbaugh for Supervisor, (so that pr3 hap3 the next Supervisor might appoint i him road overseer), are the most setl. evident reasons for his uncalled for at t tack. Now as to the road I work. 11 (the road) is in as good condition as an y road in the county. And for every [ dollar spent on my road the county l?as > gotten value received. Now, as to . wagon and mules on road, overseors are J allowed only to use two mules on road, and wagons ouly when it is necessary, ( to haul rock or brush, and I neyer ] charged for but two, and for wagon only J when hauling rock or brush, although I have used more in order to push the * work along faster, for mules will drag , dirt faster than negroes. As to frog ' > ponds in the road, two years ago Hey ' i Denver had water dammed up in road I . \ . worked by placing logs on side of road \ and I had thein removed to drain road and he complained to Mr. Betefcibaugb ' ;OUNTV MUTUAL BE OK AMI The County Mutual Benefn low organizing the Union Divi: nembership foe is $5, which co issessinent.

McLure M( JL A/UWI1 1 for my turning water outof road. Now, to read his articles oo roads and road working, etc., you would think that he has good roads very much at heart. Hey Denver is an able-bod wed man, able tc do hard manual labor, such as plowing hoeing and vorking in a blacksmith shop, yet he pays no road tax nor doea he work on the public roads, for he holds a doctor's certificate exempting him from road duty, as he got a leg broken several years ago. So he is not able to work, on public roads in his immediate section that are so disgraceful. Yet he can perform aaid does perform hard manual labor on the farm and in the blacksm ith shop. In concl usiou, will say that were Hey Denver and. myself known as thoroughly as we show Id be to every man in Union county, th at I would have paid no attention to liis; attack on road overseers, the Supervi.io r and his board. S. Nl. Gilmore. P. S.?Another thing Hey Denver did was to cut a ditch across my road to drain his laud, which he did not properly bridge, as the few small poles that l?e placed over the ditch made it dangerous for the traveling public. I removed them and illled up ditch u> make it safe, whereupon he opened up ditch again without making anv provision for cross ing it. " 8. m. o. Citation to Kindred and Creditors.

"In ajpure food case that was taken up from Philadelphia to the supreme court or rennsyivanta," says Public Policy, "the plea was made that the law is not violated unless the quantity of foreign substance in a food staple is sufficient to injure health. * The supreme oourt decision is that any poisonous ingredient, whether in quantity to injure health or not, is a violation of the statute. The cry goes up that this 'will affect 90 per cent of the stock of the average dealer.' If one-fifth of the merchandise sold for food contains poisonous ingredients, there is a startling necessity for active measures. The stupid plea that the poison is not enough in any one article to hurt the consumer indicates that the vendor never gives enough tlieught to any itsjiect of the question but the pursuit of the nimble dime and nickel to learn the effect of the cumulative poisonings Certainly when we hear from the trade itself that the practice of mixing poison in food has attained a 20 per cent, prevalence, it it time for streneoua suppression aimed with the most vigor at the manufacturers of such artidtaL" In view of the above had you not better buy "Clifton" flour, a flour guaranteed pure by the Antl-Adulteration j.
