To the Democratic Voters of Sum
ter County:
The Congressional election is near
at hand. Tuesday, the-ilh day of
November is the day. The news
papers contain much about the
lethargy aud Inactivity of theDemo-
cratlc leaders and consequently of
the Democratic masses; while the
Fraud and Force party are wide
awake aud active, well supplied
with money extorted from the peo
ple by a corrupt system of taxation
under the pretense of protecting
home industries; aud a part of these
ill-gotten gains are returned to such
men as Quay, Dudley and Daven
port to corrupt tbe vote at the prflls,
aud failiug to accomplish their pur
poses at tbe elections, they turn out
enough Democrats by force to give
them a good working majority.
A favorite scheme of this party
of fraud aud force is to ascertain
how many negro votes there are in
a Congressional district, claiming
that they are all Republicans aud
would have voted the Republican
ticket unless they had been intimi
dated by the Democrats, and if the
Democratic Congressman got a less
vote than the number of negro vo
ters in the district, they want to
bouuce the Democratic Congrcss-
m an aud turn him out. So it. will
be seen how important it is for
every Democratic voter to be at
the polls and cast his vote and give
Judge Crisp such a large majority
that even the Republican party
with all of its hypocrisy aud pre
tended love for the negro cannot
gainsay his election.
There is a bill pending In tbe U.
8. Congress, known by some as the
election bill, and by others as the
fraud and force bill, the latter
name is the wore descriptive of the
true Interest of the bill. The mani
fest object of the bill is to establish
returning boards in the Southern
States to take charge of the elec
tion returns with power to count
out Democrats who have been
elected. These returniug boards
are to be appointed by U. S. Re
publican judges. Tilts bill has al
ready passed the lower House of
Congress, and as Speaker Reed
gave the last blow of the gavel on
tlie passage of the bill, he struck
liberty a center shot between the
eyes, and “freedom shrieked” as
liberty fell. This bill is now in the
Senate to awai the re-assembling
of Congress, aud if tho Democratic
party fails to make gaius^ or elect
their Congressmen by small majori
ties, so tint the Republicans on
some slight pretext would have
out many of them, then we niay
look for an effort to rush the fraud
and force bill through the Senate.
It therefore stands the Democrat
ic party in hand that every Demo
cratic voter of Sumter county
should come to the polls and vote
for Judge Crisp. He is a true and
tried Democrat, aud has done val-
innt service for the country,-and
should receive a large majority;
besides, in critical times like these,
W0 cannot afford to taxe any risk
by staying at home.
Let everybody notify his neigh
bor to vote. I would urge every
committeeman to look over his dis
trict and see that every Democrat
votes. J. A. Ansley,

Manufacturers Record.
Bessemer ores in tbe South is the
chief theme of a letter from Col.
John Logan Black, of South Caro
lina. Col. Black claims that the
Piedmont sectlou east of the Blue
Ridge, lying on both s.des of the
boundary between North anil South
Carolina, aud extending into the
latter as far south as Greenville,
abounds iu Bessemer ores of the
best quality. His statements eoufirm
those made last winter by a special
correspondent of the Manufactur
ers’Record, who spent a uumber
of mouths iu the district Indicated,
and made a careful investigation of
its iron deposits, assisted by several
experts. It also substantiates, iu so
far ns tbe territory covered ia con
cerned, the position takeu by Mr.
Edward Atkinson in his elaborate
paper, published in the Manufac
turers’ Record last mouth that th“
South has in its mineral deposits
such an abundance of ores for tjre
making of Bessemer stepl that it
will not only he able to make all
that this country will require, hut
also that it will be able before long
to meet the increasing demands of
Europe aud the world.
There is one matter referred to
indirectly by Col. Black that, out
side of what he has to say about
the minerals of this section, is
worthy of careful consideration,
because of the source from which
it emanates. Co.I. Block was educa
ted at WeBt Point, and was a class
mate of Gen. O. O. Howard aud
other distinguished officers of the
Uniou Army. Before 1891 he was
engaged in planting, and owned
many slaves. When South Caroli
na seceded lie accepted command
of a calvary regiment and bore his
part in the war. When he sur
rendered he resumed ills old oc
cupations until he saw that the re
habilitation of the South must come
through a diversilleation of its in
dustries. He, therefore, abandon
ed plnntiug aud turned his atten
tion to the iron ores that abound in
'that district. The testimony of this
former slave owner and ex-Confed-
erate officer as to the status of the
negro, his reliability as a laborer,
his adaptability for all branches of
work at the mine, the furnace and
the foundry, may be received with
perfect conlidence. He knows of
what he writes. His evidence is
wouli far more than that of politic
ians aud sentimentalists of either
party, because it comes from a sin
cere, experienced, and very prac
tical man, who has no other inter
est to serve than the creation of
permanent industries iu the State

Repairing of all Kinds Done in Best Style,
In a circular sent to their custo
mers, Wolff & Rudolph, of Phila
delphia, manufacturers of black
ing, announce that owing to the In
creased cost of their raw material-
due to the McKinley tariff—they
will be obliged to advance their
prices. Good shoe blaeklug Is com-
mouly made of hone-blaok, oil,
molasses and sulphuric acid, tbe
acid being used to dissolve the lime
in the bone-black and set tbe ohar-
red animal matter free in a finely-
divided condition. The new tariff
takes sulphuric acid from the free
list anil taxes It heavily, to the
hurt of the fertilizer makers, drug
gists and blacking-makers. No in
dustry was too small to escape the
McKinley drag net. The effect of
tho bill is being felt already. It
will be felt more and more as time
advances.

The Pear Crop of Thomas County, Ga.
Trucker anti Lumberman.
Thomasville, Ga., Oct. 13tli.—
Thomas county, tbe home of the
LeCoute, has encouraging statistics
to show to all Interested iu the
South's progress.
The last spring freeze, with its
destructive affects over wide spread
acres, did uot fall to reach the Le
Coute, and reach it too when it was
full of bloom aud succulent spring
growth. For a while after the freeze
it appeared that the dilapidated
LeCoute would fail to produce a
crop of fruit tbidlyear. But the
LeCoute with all its vigor, endur
ance aud power of recovery, soon
began to look as promising as ever,
aud the bloomB began to appear,
aud a crop was produced notwith
standing the mild winter aud late
freeze.
The wide awake farmers of Thom
as years since saw what a bonanza
the LeConte was to the South, and
the return of this year’s fruit com
ing in at such a season go to prove
it, beyond contradiction, to other
sections of the South that have not
taken advantage of its benefits.
It is estimated that the crop ot
Thomas county must have netted
nearly 860,000. Some orchards did
remarkably well, others very little,
Capt. E. M. Smith sold $1,200 worth
of pears from a place he tried to
sell last winter for (2,000 and for
which he would have takeu (1,500
had the same been offered.
These returns came in at a season
when, without them, business
would have been very dull and
farmers scarce of change. The Lo
Conte crop which is for the market
during July and the first of August,
is supplemented by the Kieffer
pear which matures last of August
and September. The LeConte is
? ;rown from cuttings and tbe Kief
er from cuttings and on tho Le-
C'onte stock. Any one wishing to
try either from cuttings, or wishing
trees for an orchard, either in
small lots or large quantities, will
communicate with me.
Cotton farmers .who have not
been getting returns for (heir pro
duce by t ouce a year, are the opes
who should investigate this matter
and not let capitalists reap the
whole benefit of the natural and
rick fruits of the South.
