Tile uOAiii^tuii jL/ibpaU)ii | Burned April 25th; rebuilt July 19,1891. G. M. HARMAN, Editor and Publisher. LEXINGTON, S. C., WEDNESDAY. MAY 20. 1896. fe' . ^ ? Treasurer McFadden of Chester, jihe most popular County Treasurer n the State, and the one "who for years has been the first to settle with the Comptroller General, is in trouble. He is charged with defrauding many of the taxpayers of that county by raising the amount of their taxes and pocketing the overcharges. The fraud was first discovered last Saturday by a taxpayer who thought rs.f farno ttoo lorrror IIIC auivuuv Ui 1UO n Wij than it should have been and upon compar ng his tax receipt with the Auditor's book the fraud was readily seen. The State and county loses nothing as his books balanced to a cent. McFadden has been the Treasurer EP->..of that county for the past fourteen years and it is thought his fraud extended over that length of time. A correspondent suggests the name of our popular and efficient County Treasurer as one who would fill the Gubernatorial chair with honor to r' 4 himself, distinction to the State and with credit to' Lexington. We heartily endorse all that has been said of him. He is a man of broad and liberal views on questions of State policy competent in every particular to discharge the duties of the Governors office, and as honest as the days are loog, the Democratic party would hoDor itself by elevating him to that high and exalted position. but ' in these days when the blind followers of partizan leaders (count for everything, these virtues will have no influence in the game of politics, and besides the signs in the political sky points to the indication that the "powers that be" have foreordained since last fall that ex-Comp troller General Ellebee Bhall be the successor of the present encumbent, and therefore, it would be a grave political blunder to uselessly sacrifice so good, so true and so honest a man as Capt. D. J. Griffith. He is preeminently fitted to discharge the duties of the office of State Treasurer, Secretary of State and in fact any of LL1U OtaiC UiXlOCD 111 W JLllv/UL lUU UJ might place him and we sincerely trust that his services will be de manded by the party in one of these offices. If merit will win, Capt. Griffith will occupy a State office. At high noon today the gavel of Senator Irby, Chairman of the State Democratic Executive Committee, will fall calling the convention to order, when a permanent organization will be made. It is probable that a hard fought political battle will take place over the election of permanent officers as in this way will the strength of ' the Irbyites, who favor the free coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1 and party unity, andtheTillmanites, who are for free silver or bolt be tested. During the progress of this fight the air of tbe hall will be surcharged with sulphurous epithets as the contending factions strive for the mastery, and there is fun ahead for the boys. The main purpose for which the convention is called is the election of delegates to the Chicago convention, ^ but much hard work will be done by the friends of Senator Irby, who is a candidate for re election, and Governor Evans, who is very anxious to succeed him. There has been some talk from the Evans side of the house to do away with a primary by the people to select a candidate for this office. . If sach an attempt is made, we hope that it will be promptly voted down. The people cer ainly have a right to select their own officers from United States Senator down to the Coroner of a county, and they will most assuredly insist on the exercise of this right. We trust that the work of the'convention will be harmoniously transacted, and that it will be done for the best interest of the people. A Visit to Chattanooga. To the Editor of the Dispatch: Please grant me space enough in your valuable paper to relate a few m-r, twin */-, f+annr\<-ra UA UiJ bV vuavvwuw^Mj Tennessee, and of my stay in the historical and lovely city while in attendance upon the Southern Baptist convention, which convened in the First Baptist church, on Friday, May 8. On the 6 th inst., a more lovely May morning never dawned upon j this fair Southland of ours, I started j oil my journey to the city of Chatta- j noogc, via Greenville, S. C-, and Atlanta, Ga. I arrived in the former city, which is known for its educational advantages and religious influences, at four o'clock p. in. Here J met my former Professors and a gpodjy number of my old associates iind acquaintances. The University is doing a good work and jtbe boys are progressing very nicely in prosit lutli &>uuitS. ?? iiixo iit.it: u deep, clear tones of tbe old be. pealed forth in ringing tones of me] ody summoning the students to duty which called up sweet memories, pleasant days, and hard and faithful work in the mind of the writer ol former days while in attendance at this noble institution. Boarding the great "Baptist special" at the Air Line depot at 2 o'clock a. in., May 7,1 was hurriedly carried over rocky hills,through beau tiful valleys, across widening streams and through deep cuts to the city ol Atlanta. Changing cars here, we were carried with lightning rapidity to the charming city in east Tennes see. On our way between these two cities the traveller beheld a variety of scenery. We passed around curves, over unlevel country and through tunnels in the mountains. One of these, in the northern part of Geogia, is nine hundred feet long It was day time when we passed through this tunnel, but alas! how dark! so much so that it was felt. We arrived in the city of Chattanooga at 10 o'clock a. m. Here we were greeted with a warm welcome by the reception comrnitttee, and escorted to the homes to which we had been assigned. Mine was with John A. Hood, Esq., in the home of Mrs. L. Gates and Ragsdale. I received every attention and care necessary to make one comfortable aDd happy b\ these big hearted, generous and kind people. The B. Y. P. U. met at 11 o'clock and was organized. It held a ses sion in the afternoon and at night On Friday the great Southern Bap tist convention was called to ordei by the presiding officer, Jonathan Haraldson. The delegates from all the States were enrolled and a permanent organization eflected. The details of which I cannot give as they will be recorded in the minutes The convention was largely attended and much interest was mani fested. In this meeting the writer had the exquisite pleasure of meeting many great and noble men, not only of this country, but of other countries. I had the opportunity ol meeting Kev. J. A. Eager, missionary to Italy, one from China, Mex ico and Dr. A. J. Diaz of Cuba who was recently imprisoned by the Spanish authorities. One can't help but feel inspired and filled with an anxious desire to do more and better work for the Master while in attendance upon these meetings. While in this city I had the pleasure of visiting Lookout Mountain which lies about three miles south east of the city. I was carried to the summit of this lovely mountain upon an incline road. The cars are held by two large cable wire ropes. One car ascends while the other de scends. Some places on this incline road is so steep that the car appears i almost to stand upright. I stood on a large rock on the east side, known j as sun rise rock, and beheld the city with all its inhabitants below. On the north end is Lookout Mountain. Near by is umbrella rock, on which I ascended to heboid the beauties cl nature. I was told that Hon. Jef ferson Datis stood on this reck and delivered a speech to the Southern patriots of the civil war. A hotel, containing five hundred and fifty rooms is located on the top of this mountain. On the western side I climbed up sun set rock and a grander sight never before met the eyes of the gazer. Here one can behold in the valley below a scenery most grand | and picturesque. A railroad is conj structed along the valley on the west, while on the north the peaceful waters of the Tennessee winds their way around moccasin bend. It is indeed a sight most grand to stand and gaze on this very scenery as the sun sinks behind the Blue Itidge Mountains in the far distance. Having viewed the different points of interest-. T descended the incline and wended my way homeward. I also visited the National cemetery, which contains seventy-five acres. Here sleeps in peace many a soldier boy who fought for the union. The nest object of interest visited by the writer was Missionary ltidge, which lies south of the city. Here I viewed the spot held by Gen Bragg and ascended a flight of stairs some four or five hundred feet high and saw many beautiful objects in the far dim, distance. There are four cannons still standing on this historical battle ground. On this ridge are marked places where Gens. Sherman and Grant held positions. There are also many other objects of J interest to be seen by the visitor to I this mountainous city, but I could [ not take them in on this trip. J fear I am intruding and taking ! up too space in your paper, bujt permit me to say tjiat my visit ' was a source of much pleasure as weii ag duty and profit. Everybody spoke in highest terms of | praise of the good people of Chattanooga for the huge manner in which I we were cared for whilo with them. May heavens blessings ever rest upon them, and long live the good old Dispatch, is the sincere wish of Billy Fslix. Gaston, S. C., May 18, 189(3. Tutt's Pills Cure All Liver Ills. Register! Register!! Register!!! To the Citizens of Lexington: The time for registering is upon us. The officers will be at the different precincts on the days indicated in the Dispatch to give every man, capable under the constitution, a registration certificate and a right to vote in all elections held in this State. Every man should constitute himself a committee to see that every white man secures a registration certificate. There seems to be an unexplainable indifference on the part of some about this matter. This should not be. The casting of a ballot is a right and also a duty of every citizen. The sentiment and wishes of the people can be ascertained by no other medium. Their direct voice in tho management of the government can bo heard only by the clank of their votes in the ballot box. The right to be called a self governing, Democratic people can be maintained only through this channel. Democracy ceases to be Democratic when it fails to chronicle the sentiment of the people as expressed by their unbiased and unhampered ballot. To cast a ballot is a right guaranteed to us by seven years of blood ana nre. The great principle of indepen- < dence and self government involves nnd carries with it th8 right to vote. Et is an indefeasible, God given right, dedicated to posterity by the shed blood of a patriotic and brave ancestry, and has since been the pride and boast of the American citizenship. This right is guaranteed by constitutional provisions, making all citizens equal in the sight of the law and man. We all enjoy this privilege in a like degree. The humble peasant, pursuing life's noisy, bustling highway, with no means of support save his muscle and with no friend save his God, has the privilege of casting a vote which will count as much in an election as will the vote of the millionaire with all his gilded saloons and stately palaces. The humblest carpenter, who helped * > > ' > - vr?J v:u OUiia ine msgnmceui; ruuueiuin. palace?"a dream in marble"?at Biltmore, N. C., has the same voice in the management of the government by the exercise of his ballot as has Yanderbilt himself. Glorious privilege, the only one which all, without regard to position in life, have in common! Holy heritage, bequeathed by the unsullied patriot | ism of a brave people! And, yet; some are going to forfeit it by their carelessness and indifference. It is a right, and therefore it is a duty. Whatever right we have that is honest it is our duty to maintain. Citizens of Lexington, rally to your voting precincts; do your duty, and maintain your inherent right. Your failure to vote makes you a failure as one prop in the structure of the government. Register, and prepare to meet all emergencies. Yours, very truly, A. Frank Lever. Killed in a Wreck. Columbia B< gister. Yesterday afternoon, about 6:45 a head end collision occurred on tbe C. N. & L. Railroad about three miles North of Coapin, in which three lives were lo3t aod a great deal of valuable property was destroyed; An extra freight train was sent out during tbe day from C >lumbia under of charge Conductor James Ivey aod Engineer Murrell. Toe regular freight for Columbia was in charge of Conductor Griffin and Engineer Hall. Whether it was from a misunderstanding of orders or carelessness, the tvo trains ran into each other at the bottom of two grades just above | (J ;apin s. Both engines were almost totally 1 destroyed. Fireman Fuck Williford of the regular traia was killed, being crushed uoder the engine. Engineer H ill was hurt but not seriously. He and Fireman "Williford had been a loDg time friends aod the engineer wept bitterly at the terrible fate of his companion. Engineer Murrell fortunately and miraculously escaped with but a few bruises. Ilis fireman nas a negro known as "Breeches" which seems to have been Irs only appellation He was crushed to deatb, Another Degro name nuln )wo, who was stealing a ride wr.s killed, and the cars having caught on fire his body was cremated. . <+? Chapin Tots. To the Editor of the Dispatch: We have been ha\ing some pretty cool nights up to about this present entity of time, tho it seems now as if the summer's heat has set ip. Farmers are getting on o. k. with | their planting, some having finished j about a week agQ. | Our cotton market is better now than it h$3 l/cen for sometime, tho the farmers g <*eraUy h&vo already disposed of their last year's crop, so the enhancement in price is too late to effect a benencial influence on them. It seems that the farmers have to allow the "bulls" aud the "bears" always to come in and take the lion's share and they be well nigh squelched into silent submission. This has been the case and it seems as if the farmers have to drive along in the same old ruts, there being no alternative within their power. Grain crops, for the most pait, are in a flourishing condition and are looking well, tho just now it would be very conducive to the crops, as a whole, to get a nice gentle rain. It is nevertheless true, the farmers still have hard times, but, notwithstanding the hard nut thej have to crack, are still meeting and paying off their debts. The young people, too, have not become inert to their?let me say? vocation. They still remember the old saw: ."Qui non vult fieri desidiosus, arnet" (let the man who does not wish to be idle, fall in love.) I also learn with pleasure that my friend, Mr. S. I. Slice, came up home on the 9th inst, where he was met by friends, and conversations of the heartiest kinds were freely entered into. It seems that the denouement has at last found its finis and Mr. S. I. Slice still as free a bird and will, of course, ever be so, so long as he acts under the present dehortation which is being so freely given. He (Mr. S. I. S.) is now farming with his brother-in-law down neai; Irmo. He says they have a fine crop coming on and everything is going on smoothly. He says sometimes they go a fishing and catch some fine fellows, which'proves very alible?judging from his robustness. Brother Rev. Jacob Wike is going around to see all his people?he seems to be starting _ around his home and keep9 branching oat in different directions until finally he will get round to see ?em all. I believe the services of our good brother will be appreciated by all, and at the sametime I hope it will be both pleasant and agreeable to him. Everybody should read the speech of Hon. Asbury C. Latimer of South Carolina. It is certainly the best compendious on the money question I have ever read, and believe no one can read it without learning deep hidden truths never before revealed so clearly. Mexo. * May 13, 1886.
