B. ary was Chairman 01 th6 meeting. The leetlng was opened with prayer by Rev. P. . Wells. The first speaker whs Mr. McLoud, caadiate for Lleutenaut Governor. Mr. McLoud jmpllmented the Couuty on the manhood nd statesmanship of Its leaders and said iat an Abbeville man was treasurer of hla ome county and wished for more such cllians, He pledged his best services to the tuple and promised to loot after their interns II elected Mr. Ij, M Kagln, of Richland County, candlate for Secretary of state, then spoke. He ild that the office of Secretary of State was a erlcal office and consequently there were o Issues for hirn to discuss In selecting a lan lor thin office b? said that there were wo requirements; first, that the man be ualified lor the position, that he have a lorough knowledge of the workings of the [See, books, etc., and second that be be onest in the discharge of the duties of the dice. He remarked that he had had five ears experience and that part ot the time he ad worked ibe office singie-nauaea ana lone, without even the aid of a typewriter. He related tbe story of a certain Dad boy ut <n Tenoesee. Tbe Father of this boy ime home hurriedly one day aDd ripping ito the bouHe yelled to his wife to lork uhUDle up in the hum. Johnnie's mother egau to ask questions, and again tbe lather >id her to lock Johnnie up quick. Why, ild tbe mother. Well, was the reply, three ilnlsters are coming to dinner and 11 you on't lock Johnnie up you'll be sorry you Idn't. No, do, said the mother, Mhcdh's 111e man wouldn't make Mama ashamed, and tie proceeded to lectuie Johnnie on good tanners. Soon tbe ministers put in tbelr appearance od dinner was announced. All were seated ad the lather proceeded to ask Bro. John>n if be would be helped to turkey. Mo, ild Brother JobnsoD, I have dyspepsia and in't eat turkey. Johnnie's eyes began to open* May I help you to some chicken then? No, no, said the brother, I nave dispepsla ad can t eat chicken. Johnnie's eyes began to open wider. Let me help you to some rice Brother sbnson. No, was tbe reply, I have tbe despepeta and in't eat rice. Jobonle could stand It no longer with loutb watering and eyes bulging he hooped: "Give the old tool a raw egg, pa, laybe be can eat that. The speaker then referred tbe audience to te other candidates for this office, aDd eug;sted tbat If they seemed to be suffering it h dtfsneDgia. to eive them raw egg. Hod. J. M. Morrinon was the next lo speak, e eaid thai while itie speaker preceeding im did Dot look like a dysptptic, be did em to be sutterlriK with wind colic, lie ild that be came noi to tell jokes, but to > business. Ibe office Is an Important ooe. i considerable tees are paid ibe office. He lid that some of these teen bad been beld ick at times and suggested that the flees be ild directly to the State Treasurer aDd not i tbe office. He referred to Mr. Eagln's atement of his qualifications and said that Dt every corporal is flt to be a commander, e advocated Immigration from the west as ie best solution of the negro question, that was a question to be met, and tbe sooner ie better. The Hon. J. Fraser Lyon was next lntrciced by tbe chairman and arose amid ap ause. Some one In tbe audience yelled out. nake a home run !" Mr. Lyon replied that b expected to make a home run tbe very 'St lime be came to tbe bat. He said that he bad not been derelict In bis ity.tbathe had discharged himself of bis >ligatlon to tbe people of bis county to tbe >st of his ability. He referred to the graft lat had been carried on In tbe Dispensary id urged as a relief, tbe adoption of count? Ispensaries. County dispensaries could be lanaged better than tbe State Dispensary, icause they would be right under the eyes of , ie people, and graft could be prevented, aoh oounty, then, would get all the money crueing from Its dispensary and tbere ould be no necessity of division. He advls1 lo cut off lrom tbe rotten Instuotlon in Dlumbia. Talk about no fraud, said he, ben the chairman snaKes iuouuhdu uuimr i )i? In tbe race of people as money tie has iade. He referred to w. W. Smoke aDd Mr. I ralker and the abougan and suit ofoiothee, I le Bald tbat Budwelser beer could be bouahU >r 810 per onse and tbat tbe dispensary wai Hying $12.02 per case, and tbat Deep Springe 14nor sold In Chattanooga for 81 T5 and tbat ie dispensary paid $8 for tbe same whiskey, e said that Joe Jones and fat Rocbe were oove susploion and tbat tbe members of tbe tea) board were above suspicion and tbat lese men ought to be out loose from tbe rot- | snness In Columbia. Mr. A. W. Jones, candidate for Comptrollereneral, waanext introduced. He said tbat I ie poor people were paying more tban tbelr lare of tbe taxes ana tbat tbe matter sbould ( b regulated, tbat tbree years ago tbe State \ arrowed 850U.000.00 and paid Interest amount' >g to fltteen or t enty thousand dollar*, ml be bad sncoeeded in collecting SM.000 lthout cost to tbe State, Last year tbe tale borrowed only 8900,000, and next year e hoped to run tbe State on a cash basis. He lid that be bad uncovered many irregularis es and mucb bad book-keeping throughout ie State. Hon. J. D. Boyd, of Greenville, candidate ir Adjutant and Inspector General, next joke. He referred to his record of tbree ears in tbe State malitla, and said tbat be onld rather have a single lose at tbe bands f tbe people now tban have a bed of roBes on is grave. He asked tbe people only to exmine bis record and if tbey found bim capDie to give blm tbe position, Hon. L. W. Hatkeil spoke on tbe import Dee of tbe office and of the part the Malltla lays Id tbe Government, lie said that be van a grbduete of lbe Citadel, for tbree years ct mmaLdant ol nialitla, that be bad been iBHlbieot Adjutent General aud tbat tbe exerlence be bad thus gained eminently fitted 1m for tbe position be asked. Mr. Richard Manning, of Sumter, was nexi itioduced. He stands for Improvement in je common schools; better pay for teacbers. lgber learning and good roads. He knew aat whiskey was an evil:?tbe question was, ow best to settle It, He said tbat the same Id prejudice against the dispensary was .111 allve;that tbe mismanagement of tbe dlseqsary ought to be correcttd; tbat tbe sjs:m should not Le blotted out unless there 'hs something better to offer, tbat pioblblon wan not tflecilve and cannot be. The roposed county dispensary would be even 'orse (ban lbe stale Instliulion. He advomed a bill Ibat would call for tbe appointment ol a committee toopen bids lor llquoi apply to last twelve months, lbe purchasing ower to be taken away from the board ana ested In lbe committee, After a twelve Qonibs supply bad been bought tbe commit ie to retire lrom < fQce and a new committee amed. Liquor could be thus supplied wltb be government stump, and all possibility 01 rait precluded. The salaries of the dispenser bould not depend on the amount ol whiskey [>ld, but should be a slated amount. The berlffs and county ottiolals could not run a lopensary, they have other duties to peroral. Hon. M. F. Ansel, of Greenville, thought bat as tbe Government was spending tbouBnds of dollars on seas and rivers, some loney bhould be spent on publio highways, 'be most prosperous cities have good roads ?adlng to them, He is opposed to tbe State llspensary System and tblnks that each cunty should vote for itself, that such a procedure Is good democracy. Mr. Bruuson stands out fiat-footed for roblbltlon and classes tbe dispensary alone nib bar-rooms, and would Dlot out tbe rbole thing. He Is op tbe water.wagon. He ays tbat 11 tbe Slate Dispensary was tied in Kn Mluontu Polio II prinlil tint hp vrnRhPd lean. He Hay8 that 1/ whiskey continues to >e sold we should erect an asylum for Inebrlites. Hod, J. J. MeMah&m takes a different tack, ie says tbat tbe dispensary la not tbe paraDount question 01 I be day?that tbe question if education bolds tbe uppermost place. We lave too mucb book learning and notenougb leart training. If we were (ducated rlgbt itber questions of grave Importance now, could adjust themselves. He advocates a xiodel larm school for boys aud a model tome school for girls In eacb county of tbe tate. In ihese schools the boys and girls are o be taught such things as will be useful to hem in after life. He thinks that prohibiten Is not practicable now, and that tbe iiate Dispensary Is the best solution at present. Col. Jno. T. Sloan Is a Plfdmonter. He lays that the liquor question 1b the only Issue 31 tbeday, end thinks tbe dispensary Is tbe best solution of It. He says tbat Mr. Ansel bas prohibition under one arm and whiskey under tbe oiber. He stands tor education e rd wants a school bouse on every bill top. Mr. W. A. Edwards of Saluda, Is not satis led with the way tbe laws are being enlorc;d. He thinks that very little respect Is bown tbe laws of our state and shows com>arisons between Chicago and South Caroll>a. He would put a tax on all whiskey orlered from other states and thus raise 83,000,'00 00 for tbe state. He thinks tbat tbe cusom of ordering whiskey Id other people's >8me should be stopped at once. Mr. J. W- Ragsdale said tbat he would make io attack on any man's character, but that le would question Mr. Lyon's record as to louble pay. He said tbat a man could not jold two oftlces of trust apd emolument at ihe same time. Let Lyon pick three solicitors and me pick three, said be, aDd if lam wrong In this I w'll pay glOO to any orphan: age In the state. If be Is wrong let him pay bsck the money be received to tbe State treawurer, Kagsdale stands for ibe State Dispensary, He vcould like to know the difference be. iwien the stale managing tbe liquor tbroub Ibe Dlsj eniary and selling tbat rlgbt to Individuals. He read a letter from the Stale Ibemlst, >lr. JBumey, who statid tbat there was no (omr arln n hei weep tbe liquor be ex bmintd beiore tbeailvent of the Dlspensery si d tLe Ditpeot-aiy wblt-key. Tlie JtIcd. Cole Blefise Is a straight out Pltp.-osery advocate and wants to kuow bow ti e Hate if going to manage 123 men If It can't manage tbree.

Mr. James Cansler, of Tlrzah, made a cbai acterlstlc speech.

It is sometimes said tbat "corporations bav no souls." Not so with theSoutbern Rallwaj Under tbe lead of Col. A. B. Andrews th Southern b?s a soul as large as a moun'ali and as broad sh tbe sea. When p trlotlc wo men appeal to blm be l? more generous am more liberal than wbr King Ahasuerus to tb beautiful Quten Esther, wben be asked "What Is tby request ?

When be learned tbat the Confederate la dies asked only the free transportation of lb Marine band wbicb Hon. Wyait Aiken bac secured to furnifh music for Ibe unveiling o Ibe Confederate monument, be simply fell o! bis chair and ordered free transportation fo all tbe musicians in tbe cl'y of Charleston. Tbe ladles In keeping wllb their well know Ing southern modest; aBked tbe kingly offl clal of their Congressman, Hon. Wyatt Aiken who Is not only pwtlent with Republlcai Presidents In Washington, but who nas tbi e?r of all other big folk, Including rallroai cfllolals, and never fears to let bis wishes b known .of all men.

When great Congressman and powerfu railroad magnates surrender lo tbe bent wo men tnat ever honored a soldier in hlsflgb for tbem.we little folk can only say, "Here Lord, I give my sell away." It may be a?certed positively that a corpo ration that bas such a generous big hear tec man at its bead as Col. A. B. Andrews ma: be depended on lor acts of generosity an< kindness.

Tbe ladles of Abbe vllle by their untiring efforts have erected i beautiful monument to tbe confederate dea( in the olty of Abbeville. Every cent tbat could be raised was appllet to the purchase of tbe monument. They appealed to Congressman Aiken t< get tbe gratuitous services of a governmen hnnir lnratprl at Hharleston. Mr. Alkan sue ceeded in this, when tbe ladles fouDd tba the expense of transportation, some two ban dred dollars, coold not raised.
