But even ad mitting that it does increase taxation, if it dccn aaea drunkeness and conse quently Ichhcuh crime, let the increase of taxation come, it is an easier bur den to bear than the widow's groans and the orphan's cry for bread. A Few Kind Won Im. There is no digitising the fact that we have just passed through one of the most exciting contests, so far as county jsilitics are concerned, since the dark days of Radical usurpation. Every inch of ground has been con tented and the field thoroughly can vassed by aspirants for office in our county. About this we have but little to say; still holding, however, to an opinion contrary to such a course, piefering to hold to the “old fogy idea of having the office seek the man. Along with the contest overzeal ncss has been brought to the front 1 y the friends of one aspirant against another which has, as it will invari ably .do, engendered ill feeling between our citizens. To-day, as each one quietly sits down to meditate upon the result, whether of success or de feat, it should lie remembered that we will all have to live in the future as in the past, with and among each other, whatever our differences may have been, and in the light of reason, we should resolve to bury the issues of the past, and as far as possible cultivate a spirit of friendship ami brotherly love. Our interests go farther and sink deeper than the electing of 11 neighbor to an office of trust ami profit. There are questions to be decided and interests to bo guarded outside of the pales of the political arena. Fidelity to ourselves, to our families, to our neighbors, to society, and to the country at large demand that our differences in an issue like the one just closed, should have ceased on yesterday at the ballot box. Every man nominated yesterday to office of trust, in this county or to represent us in the General Assembly should re ceive the good wishes and support of every citizen of our grand old county. We should lay down every feeling of estrangement brought on by the con test and now work after interests of a more vital character. Give every num intrusted with office your sym pathy and (moourageiuont until he proves recreant to the trust. pul ii iinu: Giwlowns lliiinlik Tribute to Her Erit'inl. Editors Evening News: It is very gratifying to us nt Grovetow:, to see through the papers how greatly Colonel H.iyno was valued, and to know how generally and sincerely he is mourned, but us much ns he is esteemed ami valued by those who knew him only through his vvtilings, or were tint slightly acquainted, they cannot value and love him us we, his neighbors, did, among whom he lived, who saw him every day. knew his kind, true heart, mid how good and sympathetic he was. So many, from all over the country, are paying their respects, 1 feel that Grovetown should lay an humble wreath of pine upon Ins grave in token of the great love and esteem we, his neighbors, had for him. I have waited for a more practiced pen to do this, as there are some among us well able to do so; but as it has not been done, 1 though unused to writing, cannot let the time pass, and Grovetown be silent. 1 have known Colonel Hayne for five years, seen him nearly every day; when he was well ami the weather permitted lie never failed to come to the village for his mail. We used to look for old "Dick," Ins horac, with interest, and felt pleased when we saw the buggy coming down the hill. The Colonel would always stay a while, and was always pleasant and sociable, and not a bit stuck up, though his fame as a poet and a great mail was all over the land. Distinguished people were constantly coming to see him, and it pleased us to know he was valued bv others, but they did not value him :vs we did localise they did not know him as we did. He was interested in all that interested us and always glad to help in everything that would im prove his neighborhood. No one ever applied to him in vain for help, l ittle children loved him, for he always noticed them and ha.l such pleasant ways with them. Some one who did not know him, saw him once at Grovetown aud asked what office he was running for. 1 told him he was not running for any office. He said, "\\ hy. he is o pleasant and polite. 1 thought he was a candidate.’. Bishop Beckwith, in his beautifu. address, ganged] the Colonel about right; he combined gentleness and , manliness in a wonderful way. Col. Hay ne was a great poet, and we are glad for his sake and his family and the fvnith that this is so; but we don't value him for that. I don't care if he had never written a line of poetry — we value and love him for himself. We shall always feel kindly to Au gusta for the great and loving respect she showed him. He has many namesakes around here. I hope they may be like him in character as well as name. W. J, Heooie. Grovetown, July 15, 1886.
