Mr. Jeter Corn well, who has a : .position at Catawba Falls, is here on a few day's rest. \Miss Kate Cornwell, of Chester, is visiting her sister tliis week, Mrs. \V. E. Corn well. Miss Ethel (tilmore, now of Jonesville, made a Hying trip to Sahtue, her okl home, Saturday, to haVe a few hours with friends, returning Sunday. Mrs. S. J. Davis, who went to Tjiurens this year with her husband and children, to make her home, was here last week visiting at her father's, Mr. W. J. Friday. Mr. .1. I'. Thomas, who now holds a foreman's job on the carpenter I force at Catawba Falls, is with his | family here resting a few days. Mr. Fred Friday, who has been the past week, part of the time very sick, has so recovered, that he went hack to his work, on rebuilding Pacolet Mills. Rev. J. D. Mahon filled his appointment iit the Baptist church' Sunday. His text was from 1 Tim. * 4:1. Rev. Mr. Barclay preached at the Presbyterian church Sunday afternoon, but owing to heavy clounds and thunder and rain, but few were out to hear him. 1 Miss Annie Rodger, of Union, spent Home days with her cousins,, Misses Mary and Helen Kant. Mr. Hay Fant, chief engineer at Monarch Mills, visited his parents, Mr. and Mrs. I). 11. Fant, Sunday. \ Mr. Jimmie Page, who is now working in the railroad machine shops at Chester, visited his parents, Mr. and Mrs. W. M. Page last week., Mr. W. T. Stokes, Jr., jsost mas-' ter here, will resign, it is reported, | in the near future. We do not I know who will la- his successor, but | just so he is a clean man, with a clean skin. Delegates were elected Sunday at the Baptist Sunday school to attend the convention at Putnam, 5th Sunday; also delegates to the annual Baptist Association. Complaint is getting prevalent in the different denominations that there are many church memU-rswho are of no account to theii church, one way or another. Would one of these know himself? UJT We Arc [E PE UNI Hi The County Baptist Association meets this year in August, at this placfe. We hope it may prove a success, and that Santuc may keep up her reputation for good entertainment, and visitors may feel a , warm welcome. No such meeting! can fail to be beneficial to any com- j munity if taken advantage of, and j we hope everybody will come out, hike part, help to entertain, (this is not begging,) and let us all have a. good time. Such a meeting at the same place may not be here 1 again in eighteen or twenty years. Arthur Lyles, colored, will give a barbecue here on August 4th. Negro barbecues are quite frequent nere tnrough tin* summer, ami when they are conducted right they are all right, and I believe they re- i turn the promoter a very handsome I profit. Now if they won't letwhis-1 key be sold and allow gambling, it will receive the "well-done" of the' best people here. The rains continue to fall, but it has not been heavy this week. But as it rained the first of the "dogdays" it will rain forty days, and we must believe it, if we have any 1 faith in "old wives fables." But I then it may, sure enough. It has already rained so much that much of the crops will have to wait for | frost, it seems, to have some of the . greenness token from among it. Corn is good. To divert a little? speaking of dog days, there are too ! many days for some dogs. I would only give them about one or two days, if I had my way. In an editorial in Thk Times, of July 20th, you mentioned about the Clemson men at Union, saying there ought to be more cattle raised on the farms, and your comment. Now if you, or they, could see the waste land, round about, with good grazing, only lacking develonment you ceuld talk "louder." I wap noticing thin, some days ago. It is no telling how many cattle, or sheep, or hogs either, as for that, could be grazed on some places that I know, But the owners live far away, and only care for the rents? cotton?that they can get at the present time, and that mostly from negroes. They may claim that they want to advance the good of the country, but they can't make me believe it, under the present mode of management. They may claim that they wish the country to become improved, but I refuse to l>elievc that, when they are having their land torn down; and claim that land is advancing in price, and I claim it is depreciating in actual \ Y t TF ! Umm i .11^1 Doing OPLE^ on, sout: value, and the country lacks development, actual ownership, and-jiving on it, or the country at large will go from had to worse, and no one can deny it. It cannot be developed when a few men own large areas, and cannot look after and manage it; when many own big tracts and live far from it, and only depend on renting to any Tom, Dick, or Harry, who will make the rent, no matter to what tax on the land; and too, when so many men are getting afraid of farm work, and try to find something more "gentlemanly." The country needs development, improved lands, more cattle, sheep, hogs and mUle colts. Hey Denver. ADDITIONAL CANDIDATES. The friends of J. J.
