2 BATTLE OF BALLOTS TO DAY. SOUTH CAROLINA'S I'OMTK AL CAM PAIGN WILL KM). Fin lit In Nominally tl<* I)l*ppu**ry \cuint Prohibition—lt In Really the %<i niinintrn t ion ami Tillman Asninnt All the \nti-Di|en*ar y People—Prenelier* u- Enliated on the Side of Col. llo> 1. the Oimli dnte for Governor on tli* Antl-Dln pen!iHr> Pin f form—>la n> Conell ilnfew in the foilntlo. 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.

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.

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 . Sole Agents in Savannah. ROOT BEER.
