Eistanollee News.
The people are about through pull¬
ing fodder in this section, and a nice
Jot of it lias been saved. Cotton
picking has commenced in real earn¬
est.
Mrs. Hannah Kelly lias moved ui
to the house with her father.
Mr. Marion Crawford’s family, of
Elbert county, visited Mrs. McBath
last week.
Several of the Eastanalle people
were present at the New Hope asso¬
ciation.
John Camp was put m secretary
of Eastanallee sub-alliance at their
last regular meeting to fill the va¬
cancy made by the death of Bro. II.
N. Kelly.
II. H. Ilolcomb and wife have
gone to South Carolina to see their
daughter who recently married Mr.
Holbrook.
J. T. Camp and many other noted
songsters are expected at the con¬
vention here the 2d, 3rd and 4th.
A number of our citizens arc in at¬
tendance at Carnesville court this
week.
Rev. T. J. Stonecypher has rented
land from J. C. Mosely, and will re¬
main in this section anothea year at
least.
It is with sadness that we note the
death of little May Kelly, which oc¬
curred September 2Gtli, and was fil¬
tered in Liberty Hill cemetery Sun¬
day. Funeral preached by Rev. W.
W. Stowe. This whole community
join in extending sympathy to Mrs.
Kelly in this the sad hour cf be¬
reavement. Her troubles are hard
to bear, this making the second time
that she has seen the eyes of loved
ones closed in the icy embrace of
death within about one month, ills.
Kelly is a consistent member of the
alliance and certainly deserves the
chanty of the brotherhood and
friands, as she is in somewhat de¬
pendent circumstances.
Dear little May
lias gone away,
And those bright eyes
A. re beyond the skies.
Gone to meet father,
Where all will gather
To merit God’s love
In heaven above.
Hurrah for Tim Enterprise! It
has got better every week since it
became an alliance advocate. May
it long survive to proclaim the farm¬
ers’ rights. IIaysei-:i>.
Sullivan Hardware Company.
1 ’allies wanting to buy machinery
any kind should write to the Sullivan
Hardware Company, Anderson, S. C.
and get their prices before placing
their orders. This firm makes a spe¬
cialty of selling steam engines, cotton
gins, presses, saw mills, wagon scales,
shafting, pulleys, etc., and we un¬
derstand that their prices are very
low. They are general agents for
the Erie City Iron Works engines,
Smith cotton gins, and DcLoach
saw mills, several of which have been
soln in this and adjoining counties
and are giving perfect satisfaction.
They also report large sales of tho
Thomas Suction Cotton Elevator,
which unloads the cotton from wagon
to gin by suction and is now becom¬
ing so popular among all ginners.
They ask us to say if parties who are
needing machines of any kind will
write and state what is wanted they
will take pleasure in quoting rock
bottom prices.
Some Questions.
Editors Enterprise— Allow me
space in your paper to ask the board
of education of Franklin county a
few questions:
Gentlemen of the board of educa¬
tion, what was an examination lield
for in regard to electing a county
school commissioner for said county,
on the 14 day of September, 1891?
Did you elect such officer upon the
honor of men, regardless of preju¬
dice, isms, etc.?
Is the report true which says the
one elected missed more questions
than all the rest of the applicants ?
If said report is not true it is in jus-
tice to you. If it is true it is an in-
justice to the other applicants. Please
explain. Ax Applicant.
“A penny saved is a penny made,”
and you can save several pennies by
having your envelopes, letter
note heads, bill heads, hand bills,
enlars, cards, etc., printed at this
fiee. Send for prices.

The Bom Yard.
This is court week in Carnesville,
and the crowd is immense.
They come from every direction,
they come in droves, they bring all
sorts of animals, they come to trade,
and the horse swapper is in the ze¬
nith of his glory.
There are horses, mules, and jack s,
some with two eyes, some with one,
and others blind; the lame, the halt,
the fat and poor, (mostly poor) are
represented on the bone yard.
The scenes, the accidents, and in¬
cidents enacted on this far-famed
ground are intensely interesting and
amusing.
The moving mass of humanity is
as varied as the prismatic views of a
kaliedoscope.
Horse trading must be a fascinating
business. While some trade to make
money, others seem to trade just for
the fun of tho thing.
We notice in the crowd some fine
judges of horse flesh, among them
Mr. John Snow and Captain Kidd,
of Hartwell, and Mr. Moore, from
Bowersville.
Our old friend, Mr. Jones Ray,
from Texas, a former citizen of Hart
county, is here with some fine Texas
horses. Texas saddles and stirrups
attract much attention from the
crowd.
The fiulispcnsible banjo picker is
on hand, and bis nimble lingers make
music that keeps him surrounded
with listeners.
Wo never saw so large a crowd so
quiet and orderly.
