Chesterfield gives fhis record for the yoenianry of Chesterfield county to compete with: Mr. Archie Douglass has for forty years, so he claims, heard his old reliable clock strike the hours of nine and three each night.

A. 1 Campbell Hardware. Are you in favor of voting $50,000 ' for bonds for waterworks and sewerage? This will give Chesterfield a 1 first-class system. The Cheraw system cost $85,000, but Chesterfield's natural drainage and other good points make a simpler engineering proposition. Begin now to talk the matter over, as in a few days a meeting of the voters will be held to dei cide what action is to be taken. A 1 little more tax money may save this r town a serious epidemic of typhoid ( fever or some other contagious disI ease. The convenience and comfort , alone are worth more to the inhabi, ants of this town than the extra taxes ; will amount to. And as for cleanli, I ness, it is hard to speak of cleanliness . and the cost at the same time. No town of this size can be clean and sanitary without waterworks. We will not mention lire protection at ' this time. The Best is the Cheapest. Singer and Wheeler Wilson Muchines. The best by the world's test. Sold cheap for cash, or on easy payments.

Sixteen-cent cotton is having a marked effect on the business in Chesterfield. Trading is brisk and the , merchants ftre busy. The supplies offered by Chesterfield merchants are first-class in every particular and I we venture the assertion that more j goods can be bought for the same money at Chesterfield than in any other town of its size inthe State. I The County Fair Association is considering a proposition of enlarging their grounds and taking in the cot- j ton ware house. Owing to 16-cent cotton, the warehouse is empty and would make an ideal building for fair exhibit purposes. It is understood . that the owners of the warehouse have agreed to rent same to the Fair Association and that their offer will / probably be accepted. *? y z - * .l J1 r Sheos, Sh For Dress 1 isThey measure up to th< gards Style and Workmanshi ly which to the man of discrimi tween the right and wrong a pair in all leathers.
