Very good rains fell about here during

much electricity accompanied them. No
serious damage from winds was done
except a cabin Iteing blown down.
The annual "cool sp?ll in August,"
followed the nuns and there was a decided

There was much talk and guessing the
why and wherefore about not a copy of
Tiik Times coming to this postofflce
two weeks ago. [We have the poet
oflice authorities tracing this last package.?Ed.]
It may be a lame or it may be a strong
excuse in times of politics for a man to
try to overthrow an office seeker, and i
marshal all others that he can influence
to help him, because some time he was
not treated in a way particular swe?t, or
Bugar coated. In such case one should
make the fight alone, unless he has never
treated anybody badly, nor talked about
anybody. In that case the matter is
changed entirely, and he should get all
he can to enthrone immaculate men.
Last^week was one of campaigners for
Union county. On the 12th I attented
the speaking of candidates for the U. 8.
Senate, and paid close attention, except
at intervals I roamed off a little and paid
attention to something else, or somebody
else; never mind who. I think these
Bix men are a body of able men, and
either can, if elected, fill the place very
well?it is hard to say who is the ablest.
I don't know, but almost every |[man
knows, or rather believes be does, who
he bad rather see in oflice, and will vole
that way. unless some electioneer addles
his mind and causes him to-change his
vote. I enjoyed that meeting, for I
always like to hear good speakiDg, no
matter who does it. On the 13th the
county campaign opened here, with a
full delegation of the I-wish-to-be-your- ]
servants. On the 14th I followed them

pi eventing his case, and asking a reasonable
suppoit. Of course, eveiyone knows
some must feel defeat, and each entertains
a little dread that he may be the
one, and hoping heartily that he may not.
There is much activity among friends of
each candidate. After this meeting the
aggregation moved on to the next place,
the Editor of The Times making up a
"large" part, and I know he will let the
readers hear from him. I would liked
to have gone too, but business told me
plainly, "No more for this time, back
to work," and I obeyed. I hope that
whoever is elected will prove their talk
has not been wind, and that we will not
be fooled as we have been by the clouds
lately.
If you please, you may erect aircastle
monuments, or real; unfurl hero's
banner, flame aloft the cheering light of
the beauties of true generosity, and sing
of a% smile's bewitching power; then
take a reasonable proportion of each ingredient,
blend them all together and
vote it to Carlisle and Fish Dam township
as their part for generosity, for it
could be nothing else. They gave a big
free dinner to campaigners and visitors
on campaign day, August 14, at that
place. It is a big undertaking to give
such a dinner lo between six and eight
hundred people. It was a politicnic,

illumination. I guess the candidates,
all, want to vote for Carlisle. There
were many men, a full quota of healthy
candidates, and nearly as many ladies
and young girls, and a great many colored
people?to hear the speaking. The candidates
behaved like the gentlemen that
they were.
I liave no regrets for going that day.
It was even better than I expected. I
met many friends, both ladies and gentlemen,
some from Chester. As I have
said in another place, the Editor was
there and he can tell of the meeting better
than I can. I will only tell of my
part. You may know I had a nice
time with some young people, and
listening to speeches. All listened wpll
most of tiie time. A young friend of
mine just would have me make the
acquaintance of some interesting young
ladies, and instantly there was an electric
suggestion in the air that I felt vaguely
with uneasiness, and did not know
whether I was slightly choked, wanted
water, or hadn't had dinner enough.
But I went with him, and I am here,
don't you see.
I have talked with several and they all
say that they never saw anything to
compare with the dinner. Verily, that
section is wearing a big blue ribbon,
pinned on by every one wno was present.

FOR COUNTY COMMISSIONER?MR. I,
- II. MOULKY
announced himself for re-election at
County Commissioner. Thought the
roads had been put in better shape bj
the present board than they had ever
been.
J. A. CIIAMHBRS
for re-election. County was in debt
$8,000 when elected, but had got it out
of debt, and it was now a little ahead.
Roads were in fine condition, better than
ever had been. There were $115,000 of
the It. R. Bonds still against the county.
The bonds had been floated atfl per cent,
instead of 7 per cent, as was calculated
on, saving the county $20,000 in twenty
years. The redemption of bonds had been
stopped because the premium had gotten
too high and a sinking fund had been
established Instead. At time of maturity
this sinking fund is expected to be sufficient
to pay for them at par. That is
all the holders can demand. Was not
in favor of building a new court house
by issuing bonds. It would cost $40,000
to build a modern court housse. Was
opposed to Union county issuing any
more bonds. Was willing to make any
necessary improvements on tlie old court
house.
M. KKNNKTT,
announced himself for County Commissioner.
Had never made a speech, but
if elected would faithfully discharge the
duties of the office.
w. F. BOBO
announced himself. If elected would
devote himself to the fathf ul discharge
of the duties of the office. Would look
after his section especially.

announced himself, and looks upon the
office as a strictly business one and i1
elected would oonduot his part of it 01

money that is paid out by the county ii
passed upon by the board. It is a business
