Nelson was crowding Scott a little too much for his health, and Scott waded into him with a knifA No serious result, however. No use trying to buck against an advertiser. The goods Itbat are advertised are the goods that are going to sell. The only conect method to catch the people's ear is to advertise, and Tiik Times is the proper medium, through which to to reach them. Mr. D. C, Heyward, the leading candidate for governor, in the second primary, pasrxl through JJnton ' Saturdry on his way. to Spartanburg,, where we understand he contemplates 'establishing his headquarters during the' second pri mary raoe. x Our valued, friend, Mr. M.

Prof. Jeffries, who lias been spend iuf bis vacation at his old home in Cherokee county has returned to Union and is getting everything in readiness for opening up his flourishing and ever-gaining graded schools in Union. The session will begin on Sept. 15th and the profess ?r asks us to request that all the scholars who can possibly do so, come to school the Qretday, which will greatly expedite matters in getting tliera prop* i ly graded, and starting the educational bail rolling. Prof. JefTries is a careful and painstaking superintendent of our graded schools and gives general satisfaction to patrons and pupils. Under bis management our graded schoo's have become ' > be recognized among the best in ?h stat*. We wish for him and his ?eh .!ars a prosperous session. Enlarging His Store. The McLure Mercantile Co., who recently purchased the building on M^in street, now . oqcu pied by the Wood-r Store, is remodeling the building a 1 adding 30 feet to the rear of the bull 'ing. When finished they will nv-ve from their present stand t?t.his remodl. ed and commodious building, while the "Wonder Stoie" will move to Mc.Luie's present stand. The *McLure Mercantile Company has been wonderfully successful in the mercantile business during the last two years, and have had just about all they could attend to in the way of trade. Mr. McLure says he lias no hesitancy in crediting this spleirtiid trade to his advertisements. He advertises only in The Times, and when the customer calls he always receives courteous tfnd kind treatment and runs across the closest kind of prices on the goods He thus heroines a good customer and a staubch friend of the ooncern. This is the secret of success. Goo 1 luck to you friends, in your new quarters. m Perfection Attained. "Clifton" fancy patent Hour is a perfect Hour. It is not possible to put more quality and purity into a llour than our "Clifton" brand contains. "Clifton" is a soft wheat fancg patent. It is made from select wheat, every grain of which was grown on Kentucky soil, the best wheat in the wide world. Only the choicest berries a~e selected. These are thoroughly cleared, and then by a sjiecial process of gradual reduction are converted iu?o H nr. Tlv tri'Hai of this 11 uir is separated and sift ed through in* H iest silk bolting cloth, siving it a velvety softness seldom found i in nr/1UoMt * % I Ill WJ uiuaij uwm. l lint/ n , ' and that'a why it is a perfect flour the 1 flnest product expert milling and a mini- ] ern mill can make from the beat wheat grown. "Clifton" is a flour of quality at a reasonable price. You can pay as much and get an inferior flour, but you can- r not get a better flour whatever you pay. j BnANSFQRp MlLf,S, , Owensboro, Ky. i Road Machinery Here. i ? f The last installment of the road m i- ] chinery purchased some time ago by the town of Union at a cost of some $2,000 t arrived last Friday and was unloaded Saturday. Union now has one of the most perfect and complete road working outfits to be found in the. state, consisting of complete rock crushing apparatus, road plow, two-wheeled scraper and road roller. This jroqd working machinery is 8 up to the scratch in every particular, and c we can now confidently look for a very 1 material improvement in the condition ' of our streets. ^ The next question is will the citizens J along the narrow streets be willing to set * back their front fenoes so as to allow a f straightening, grading aud macadamiziug of a beautiful street in front of their premises. We hope there will be no one to stand in the way of this much to be desired thing of good streets and side walks. We have a pretty town, it is in v a very desirable location, well drained, o and when we get the kind of streets we j ought to have we will have one of the d prettiest towns to be found in the state. a HON. JOHN T. SLOAN, ] ? - E Col John T, Sloan, the popular candi- \ date for Lieutenant-Governor, made a v superb race in the primary last Tuesday. 1 Out of a vote of 94,517 he received the I handsome vote of 39,779, almost a ma- I jority, leading both of his opponents by r several thousand, d Col. Sloan was bora at Pendleton, A.uderaon caunty, and is an up-country man, and the large majority of votfes he re oelved in Spartanburg, Greenville, Anderson, Pickens, and Oconee, attests the f high confidence thiiAtection has in him, ! to say nothing of the counties lie carried in the lower and middle portions of the state. The subject of these lines is well qualified to fill the high position to which he aspires. He was a State Senator for eight years, and a member of the Home of Representatives two years, also a member of the Constitutional Convention of 1895, and of the National Democratic Convention of 1888. This long legislative experience eminently qualifies Col. Sloan for"his high position. He is one of the youngest Confederate Veterans in the State, having volunteered in the Army of Northern Virginia when Sixteen v<*ars of age. He followed the imujortal L e through two bloody campaigns, i>articipating in thirteen battles, and was captured at Appoiqatto^. , A member of the 4'Red Shirt" brigade in 1878, he worked hard to redeem South Carolina from Radical rule and negro domination. Col. John T. Sloan has a clean record, and is a man of high character and abfliity, and will give his best energies to the State and People. We hope Union . county will give him her hearty support.^ , -I*#-*?**'}#**#** $ Quick Sales, | ^ I f Short Profits. $ I \ B o o -*+?<*> a<*rO<m<n*With the inai ing of new 1 pleasant rela Our There is a pleasure.

I desire to express my tlmnks to my ellow Democrats in South Carolina for heir expression of confidence in me as a* andidate for Railroad Commissioner in he primary, leading my opponent for he second race by nearly twq thousand rotes, and beg to submit my claims to he voteis, asking for their suffrages in he second pjiipary. All of my opponints and myself discussed the question n reference to the Railroad Commissionir's office and the welfare of the people n every county, and separated as friends. My opponent is from the same terriory as the two incumbents. When Mr. iYilbpra retires, the great eastern, northiastern and south-eastern sections of the Jtate, comprising the largest part of the itate, with the largest railroad mileage, will be absolutely unrepresented on the Board. Living in the oentral part of ,he State, and oelng a native of Marion, jy which county I was endorsed for tha position, I submit that I am iq a po iiion, if elected, to see that all sections if our progressive State are properly represented. If I am honored with your suffrages, )OU may rest assured that I will perform the duties of the office of Railroad Commissioner with the fidelity that I have erred my people in the past. ?? ? ? # ?>? * the T ra iguration of a new season friendships and a rene\ tions with old friends, Custom constantly recurring < is the complete realizatic in our business.
