Columbia, S. C.. Aug. 27.—0n1y one year j
since 1890 has there been so much inter
est in on election as there is in the bat
tle of ballots to bo woced in South Caro
lina to-morrow —that was the contest for
United States senator between John Gary
Evans and Joseph 11. Earle.
While the tight to-morrow is nominally
dispensary against prohibition, it is in
reality the dispensary, backed by nil the
power of the administration and Senator
Tillman, against all anti-dispensary peo
ple, whether they he Prohibitionists, high
license men or the element of ex-saloon
keepers. The anti-dispensary forces are
following Col. Ja- A. Hoyt of Green
ville for Governor, while the other side
is represented by Gov. McSweeney. Frank
B. Gary, A. Howard Patterson and G.
Walt Whitman.
It Is generally conceded that hut three
of these candidates have a chance of re
ceiving the nomination. They are Col.
Hoyt. Gov. McSweeney and Mr. Gary. In
the first primary the vote will probably
be in the order named. None are so
hopeful as to expect victory to-morrow,
but the Hoyt people think they will
have a long lead over the next highest.
In the second primary to settle the ques
tion, the highest two will compere, and
unless the Hoyt vote is near the major
ity line to-morrow, the chances for the
dispensary man will be decidedly the best.
There are more candidates for county
offices than ever before known in the
state, and on this account, am well as the
interest in the gubernatorial contest, the
vc.te is likely to be lorge. There are
twenty-nine candidates on the state tick
et. and there is not a county in the* state
with less than thirty aspirants for honors
and emoluments, while the average is
over fifty. In Richmond there are seventy
county candidates, while her neighbor,
Lexington, has eighty-four candidates.
On the state ticket only two men are
unopposed, r. R. 'Cooper for secretary of
state, and G. Dunean Billinger for attor
ney general The latter had an opponent,
but he withdrew*.
There are three lively congressional con
tests. Joe Johnson of Laurens, is oppos •
ing Congressman Wilson of Spartanburg,
and there are no odds offered on Wilson.
In the Sixth District. Lieut. Gov. Scar
•borough, J. E. Ellerbee and Congressman
Norton have had a ho* triangular fight—
nnd there also, the issue is very uncertain.
Congressman Finley is opposed by ex-
Congressman Strait, whom he defeated
two years ago. It is thought the chances
ere best for Finley.
But there is extraordinary interest in
the vote to be received to-morrow by Sen
ator Tillman, although he has no opposi
tion. The Senator had declared and reit
erated on the stump that if he does not
get a majority of the votes he will not
jollow the Legislature to consider his name.
there are very few, if any,
persons who believe the Senator will fall
to get a majority, there is great uncer
tainty in this election because of the
quiet work being done by almost every
Baptist and Methodist preacher in the
state, both for Col. Hoyt and against Sen
ator Tillman. The strength of the church
will bo demonstrated, as it has never been
before, in an election in this slate, and
until that strength is revealed there is
an element of uncertainty in the result.
While no really open work has been done
to get voters to scratch Tillman, it Is be
lieved he well r un 12,000 or 15,(MX) behind
the ticket. That this falling off will reach
30,000 or 40,000 Is hoped by some of his op
ponents.
Big counties in South Carolina have
heretofore made it very difficult to receive
prompt returns on election night, hut the
spread of long distance telephone systems
and epecial arrangements for rushing re
ports from backwoods precincts make it
probable that the result will be known
tomorrow night, unless the vote is very
ck>s.

FIGHT WITH TWO NEGROES.
Alinlinp to Train In
Political
Dublin, Ga., Aug. 27—Friday last Mr.
S. M. Veal, who lives a few xniles from
the city, complained to two of his cot
ton pickers, Carswell and Will Curry,
negroes, because of their carelessness in
picking the staple.
The negroes became offended and be
gan to abuse Veal, who ordered them
from the field. Each of them drew a pis
tol, but Veal was too quick for them and
had them covered before they could
shoot.
Saturday he swore out warrants for the
negroes, and Chief of Police J. A. Pra
cock soon had Carswell behind the
bars. Will Curry was arrested yesterday
and placed in jail.
The passenger train on the Macon,
Dublin and Savannah road, scheduled to
leave here for Macon yesterday morning,
at 8 o'clock, did not leave until 1:30 p.
m. Saturday night, while attempting to
turn the train around, the engineer back
ed the baggage car and the tender of the
engine off the Y. There was not much
water in the engine, and before the ten
der and the car could be pulled back on
the track it went “dead." Early
yesterday morning an engine from Macon
was telegraphed for. It arrived at 11:30,
pulled the othor engine and car upon
the track, and left at 1:30 for Macon with
the regular train, coming back on sched
ule time last night.
Saturday afternoon the Democratic Ex
ecutive Committee, the Democratic nomi
nees for county officers and a few others

urday,

list candidates John Wilkes for the Sen
ate. and J. R Baggett for the House,
have made a number of appointments to
speak in the county, commencing next
week, and have challenged G. W. Carter
and L. Q. Stubbs, their Democratic op
ponents to meet them in Joint debate.
This week Mr. Baggett is over in Eman
uel. Qssisting Mr. Wilkes there. Wilkes
has akso challenged Carter to e*tuir.p
Emanuel with him. No attention will be
paid to these challenges.
Carter. Democrat, will carry Laurens,
Johnson and Emanuel for the senate.
Johnson has been a Populist county up to
now', but it is almost certain that the
Democrats will carry the county by sev
eral hundred majority. It is expected that
Laurens will give Mr. Carter and the other
Democratic candidates 1,000 majority, and
the Democrats are all working to that
end.

Kind Friends—l have got some, of the
people here thinking there must be some
thing in the Spring. I gave a carboy to
a poor man who is in bed with Kidney
(rouble. (No worse than 1 was.) 1 am
certain it will help him. If so, friends
are to send him and wife to the Spring.
Mr. Pocock, prep. Hotel Hartford in
this city with daughter and son is to go
there as soon as he can fix business up.
A banker was here; also, two other
w’ealthy men; I toid them to go at once
to Suwanee; explained the benefit there,
more than at home. Still they wanted
the’water to use until such times as they
could get away. That is why I sent for
the five carboys. I have no idea what
amount of water I can sell, but I will
do what I can. but 1 would sooner see
people go to the Spring
Had a short note from Rev. P- V. Har
tigan. He is improved, and said, my next
vacation will be spent at Suwanee. In a
business letter from Mr. Nathen, he said,
my wife is fine. Had she remained at
the Spring two weeks longer she would
be sweet sixteen again.
Well, it is certainly wonderful; all get
benefited by the waters. Chances are

PAULDING OF LONG ISLAND CELE
BRATED PIPPIN APPLE CIDER.
This pure elder la served on steamers on
the American line, and at the Waldorf-As
toria and leading family grocers In New
Yo;k city.
Paulding's Pippin cider is made from
the pure Juice of hand picked apples from
his own mill on the premises. It Is abso
lutely pure apple juice, and all the effer
vescence is natural, and we guarantee 1*
to be the choicest cider In the world.
Leading physicians In New York and
Brooklyn recommend this cider to their
patients, its perfect purity Is guaranteed.
In Paulding's Pippin cider, only Long Is
land Newton's Pippins ate used. The ap
ples are left on the trees until late In Oc
tober when they are hand picked and
placed In a dry roctn to ripen.
Paulding says "the apples are thorough
ly crushed in his own mill and the juice
pressed out and run into sweet clean
casks" The difference between crushing
and grinding apples Is very great.
You will know the difference between
crushed app es and ground apples if you
take some stems and chew them, you will
find that bitter taste which is not with
Paulding’s crushed apples. This cider has
not the extreme sweetness of the Russet
cider, and everyone will find the Pauld
ing's Pippin older just right to take with
dinner. LIPPMAN BROB .
