WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 1, 1884. ?
FAllEWEIiL TO GliEENWOOU. 1
To*hay wo come, to-morrow we go, ;1
?ncl the events of our yesterdays arc j
soon forgotten by the excited throng j
which rushes onward doy after day to- ,
ward an-unknown goal, he it good or evil. (
"Nearly every person in this section
Ituows something of the history of this ,
paper; the sudden changes that have
taken place from time to time in its
^ownership and editorial management,
and the third attempt of one of its foun ders
to gain a foothold on journalism
and permanently establish" a first-class
loeal paper in Greenwood. From th?
outstart, in 1881, when the paper was
flint issued from the press, the enter
-prise has been a financial failure, but
has struggled on through the mists
which threatened defeat, and, at the
'individual loss of its publishers has
been kept alive, anxiously anticipating
the coming of the time when Greenwood
would show a greater- appreciation
of the paper by mnterial aid and
Support. Last Janunry the present
proprietors of The Sai.im>a A huts purchased
tho type, presses, &c., with the
'good will of tho paper, from Mr. T. F.
ItiLRY. At that time the prospect for
success, and the outlook for Green- .
*
wood's future,, were bright, indeed, nnd
it was with a cheerful heart and u will ,
that knows not fnil, that wo have for i
th'o past eight months made Tuk Annus
a weekly, and wo hope a welcome and ;
appreciated visitor, to many homes in
Abbeville and adjoining counties. It ,
has been our pleasant duty to use overy ,
effort to publish a paper that would ,
please all; could we feel conscious <
that in this we had succeeded we would
>. ' 1
bo rewarded in part for any sacrifices
we have made, or the pain we may have
experienced in learning that our earnest
efforts had produced no effect.
The A'sous terminated its career in (
Gruenwood with its last issue. The
presses, type, and entire outfit of the
paper, together with the subscriptions,
advertising contracts, and the good will i
and. patronage of The Sai,ui>a Aimus
have bu'en purchased by Messrs M. L.
Honha&i, T. 1', Cothran and J. S. I'Elt;iirN,';"6f.'Abbeville,
from which, place
j'the paper - yyill lienco forth be published.
-This is purely a business
'proceeding on the part of the parties interested
, in the purchase and the
uale, and should not-be considered bjany
one as a financial embarrassment on

TO THE PUJSL1C. *
We present to the public the first is- <
sue of Thk Abbkvh.le Mbwenokk. Wo ,
/do not propose to make elaborate promises
for the future, preferring that our ,
Actions speak for us. ,
) It is needles* to say that in politics
our paper is Democratic.
Our desire is to make an hor.cst, in- i
.dependent and fearless newspaper?demoted
to tha interests of the community i
in which we live and to thoso op this i
county and Mate. In the furtherance of i
those interests we shall at all times <
speak plainly and honestly, uninfluenced i
to turn aside from our convictions of i
right "through fear, favor or affection, i
reward or tho hope of reward." Doubt- i
loss we shall oftentimes differ from our 1
friends; hut we shall express our honest I
convictions, nevertheless, trusting to i
their sense of. fairness to believe in tho 1
honesty of our purpose. I
| We sincerely trust that pur relations
V with the prens of the state will bej>loAS- <
tint and agreeable, and boj^llwnf to un- 1
derstaud now thaiJ^c shall endeavor in j
all our di^sSsions with them to bo cour- |

of their right* and privileges. . t

OUR CAMPAIGN MUK'i'lNG.
We are sorry to hear that there are
ioine of our people who do not take an i
nterest in the success of the campaign
neeting at this placu on the 7t)i inst.
f that indifference arises from a ton
jrent sense of security it is
hose who entertain it to disabus^^^V
ninds of the error. The republicans
lave a state ticket in the Held, and it is
evident from the tone of discussion in
heir convention that the negroes are
dive to the importance of making a
Ight for state officers if they desire to
ceep their party organization intact.
Moreover, it is necessary that the upjountry
poll its full democratic vote to
:ounteract the very heavy majorities of
lie republicans in the lower countics.
[lukewarmness on our part may imperil
.lie success of our electoral ticket and
hereby the success of our national canlidates.
It is an assured fact that John
11. Tolbert desires to run for Congress
igainst Col. Aiken. lie can scarcely
nitertain a hope of election. Hut it beioovcs
us to bury his aspirations under
i majority for Aiken sufficient to present
a vexatious contest for his seat.
If this indifference proceeds from any
>ther feeling than that we have spoken
>f, it is unworthy our people and our
:ounty. Already Pickens, Oconco and
\nderson have had grand and onthusiistic
meetings, and Newberry will follow
mit on the 3d inst. We cannot afford
.o be behind our sister counties. Nor
ivill we. The success of the meeting is
insured. The executive committee are
working with indefatigable zeal to this
jnd, and their arrangements are nearly
romplete for the biggest and most interisting
meeting held in Abbeville since
the memorable "Big Tuesday" in '76.
Between one thousand and liftoen hunIred
mounted men, in red shirts, will be
in lino. The committee have good
reason to believe that Senator Vnnc j will
t>e present, together with Senator Hampton,
Gov. Thomnson. and othor (lis
linguishcd speakers. Arrangements arc
being maile to furnish a barbecue free to
ill who coine. So shake off your lethirgy,
don the rtd shirt, and be present
an the 7th, that the moral force of our
meeting may bo sufficiently great to destroy
any secret hope our enemies may
entertain of success.'
THK SITUATION IN OHIO.
Tiik State election in Ohio comes off
in October and the result is anxiously
looked forward to as the first substantial
indication of Ohio's vote in the presidential
election, and to some extent the
presidential election itself. Not that
the Democrats need give up the ship if
Ohio is lost, for conceding the electoral
vote of that will o' wisp state, the votes
of New-York, Connecticut and New
Jersey will be sufficient to hoist the ro
torn) canuutate, lliu trutli tolling candidate
into the Presidential chair. Ohio
has been Republican in every presidential
election since 185G,- occasionally relieved
in the otf yoars by Democratic
victories. At those elections tho tide
in favor of Democratic success seems to
havo been turned by certain locn.1 issues
?the liquor and wool questions, which
have alienated many of the Republicans
but neither of which enter as factiors
in the present campaign, and tho Democrats
must win only on their own intrinsic
merit and the striking demerit of tUeir
opponents. In both of which they are
us solid as the rock of Gibraltar.
Thk recurring inconvenience of looking
up registration certificates before ev
L?ry election, and tho difficulty of the
red tape machinery employed to renew
them when their loss is established,
~ ? i-? *
ju^tnui u jvmvujr uv which mi mis
linrrussinj; trouble may bo avoided.
Let every club in the county appoint
either the secretary or some other suitable
member of the club custodian of
the registration, tickets of nil members
of the club. The custodian of the registration
tickets will thon procure a
blank book and paste every ticket therein
and index them by the name of the
holder. This book can be desposited in
iome secure.place during the period between
the elections and at each election
it can bp, produced at the voting precinct
of the club to which it belongs
ind kept there all day by the custodian.
Whenever a man approaches the polls
Itis name mny bo found in the index and
his ticket immediately produced by tho
custodian, an so on.
For at least six months previous to
svery election there is. a rummaging
iround old dustj? papers, through
"chists" that have not seen the light for
eighteen months previous, to find the
lost ticket. Many a wife's buck has
ached after a day, perhaps more, employed
in such laborious search.
.Another very gieat advantage that
will accrue from this system, will be
that thereby the club roll of every club
will be verified nnd tho number of
members in ench club will be a fact of
mathematical demonstration nnd precision.
Whenever a question in the
county club is to be Rcttled by a
constitutional vote, we will be-certain
that every club is reported with a correct
membership. Wo do not propose
that it be compulsory on tlio club members
to commit their tickets to tho
keeping of the custodian, but wo arc
satisfied a vast majority of thein will
be only too delighted to be relieved of
the burden of taking care of thein.
J(took G'ltKHUAM, Into Postmaster*. ;
General, has been tendered tho Treasury "
[ ortfolio made vacant by the death of
Secretary Kolger by the President. and
na.s occopted and qualified. : His appointuunt
was unexpected by many and is
uippoKed to be temporary?not to last
luuger than December 1st, when ho wilt
-csign to take a seat on the Federal Circuit
Pcnch.
C:?i.. J. W. Nou>\vooi>. of the Third
Regiment of S. V. T.. has tendered his
resignation. ^ ^
John \V. Garhktt, President of the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, a great
railroad king, is dead.
Wk notice that Prof. 1). B. Johnson,
who is so well and favorably remembered
here, is again Superintendent of
the Columbia Graded Schools. Miss
Annie Bonhain, of Columbia, and Mr.
Paul M. Briee, are among his assistants.
Tiik contract for the building of Georgia's
capital at Atlanta has been let for
the price of $H(>2,762. It is to be built
of Indiana stone and to be completed
within the next three or four years.
Legislators, what about the fast decaying
state house of our own at Columbia?
Do you propose to allow the coming
Legislature to pass without an effort to
complete it?
Thk national democratic executive
committee have issued a call for funds.
It is published in another column. The
most gratifying response has been made
to this appeal, and it is evident that our
people will not for want of a little money
lose the victory now seemingly witbih
their grasp. We have no doubt our
connty executive committee will take
charge of any contributions to this fund.
Thk JVcmw and Courier came to us
on Monday as an eight page paper, in
which form it will be published hereafter.
The first issue in the new form
nntihiinofl n i'iif nf tUn r?n*r? U
recently purchased. The News (ni<l
Courier ranks as one of the first dailies
in the whole southern country, and we
do not doubt that in its enlarged form it
will increase its reputation for progress
and enterprise.
At a meeting of the Democratic Executive
Committee of the Seventh Congressional
District, (the Klack District")
it was resolved to cull a Congressional
Convention, on October JHh, at ttummerville
to "nominate a candidate for
the Seventh District, if they should
deem it advisable." The Democrats of
that District are certainly in a hopeless
majority and as that District was oll'ercd
as a sacrifice to the "grim visaged
Moloch," it is probable that tliev will
have to endure the pain.
To the former patrons of the Sufmlu
A )'{jns, at Greenwood, we beg to say
that we desire to keep up the relations
of that paper with them. We will fulfill
all the contracts of the Argus, and
will endeavor to be always mindful of
the interests of thut community. It is
natural that its citizens should regret
the removal of the paper from tli^ir
town, ilut we will always gladly use
its columns for the advancement of their
interests and their pleasure, and trust
to receive from them a generous support.
That growing town, with its unexampled
commercial advantages and
splendid railroad facilities, bids fair to
rivul any place in the up country. V?'e
will he only too glad to aid its advancement.
Skxatou Hampton said to the colored
people of Anderson at their great meet
ing on the 26th : "The Democratic party
on its accession to power promised you
its full protection, and as I stand hero in
the sight of the people and of God, I say
we have carried out every pledge made
to you as a part of the people of South
Carolina." These are words of as sacred
truth as ever fell from the lips of man.
and we know that the conscientious
statesman, who was thought by some to
he a little too conscientious in certain
periods of our history, was proud to he
able to stand boldly up and with a clear
conscience proclaim the fidelity to its
promises, of the Democracy of South
Carolina, to which no greater praise can
be given than that it has rodeemed its
Statu and at the same time preseived its
own integrity."
The republican state convention met
in Columbia lust Tuesday, and the scenes
reported in the conrso of it?
. ? r- "to"
surpass anything in the line of confusion,
ignorance and fraud we have ever read.
The Taft delegates -from Charleston
were excluded from the convention, and
will, it is said, call another. The delegation
from Abbeville, headed by Ab.
Titus, was recognized by the convention.
The following state ticket was
nominated, though it .is thought that
some of the nominees will not accept the
nomination :
For govornor, 1). T. Corbin, Charleston.
l''or lieutenant-governor, D. A. Straker,
Columbia.
For adjutant-general, Qen. Carlos
Stolbrand, Spartanburg.
For treasurer, C. C. Macoy, Chester.
For secretary of state, It. Li Smith,
Charleston.
For superintendent of education, the
Kev. Joshua Wilson, Florenco.
For attorney-general, Samuel W. Melton,
Columbia. ,
For comptroller-general, K. J. Sawyer,
Bennettsvllle.
One of the most enthusiastic raf itings
of the campaign, was held at Columbus,
vfM?w) VII ?uv ?wiii upccuiicn nui c nvtio
by tho distinguished leaders of the
Democracy ? Hendricks, Carlisle and
Bayard, besides many others. Carlisle
seeins from all accounts to have made
the specoh of the occasion. He arraigned
Republican abuses and ocrruption
and poured hot shot .into their
ranks. There wero four stands erected
for the itnmenso crowd, and before Carlisle
finished tho other threo stands had
boon deserted and the immenso sea of
up-turned faces were directed to him. A
letter from Gov. Cleveland was read, in
which he gave uttemnco to a striking
sontimcnt." "I believe," wrote ho, "that
"the voters of the country are fully
,
"alivo to ihe necessity of installing an ^
"administration of public a Hairs, which V
"shall bo truly their own, not only be"cause
it is tho result of their choice, I
" but because its selected instrumental!- ^
" ties are directly from tho body of the
" people and impressed with the people's
" thoughts and sentiments. They are
"tired, I think, of a rule so long con- J[
"tinned that it has bred and fostered a
"class standing between them and their |
"political action, and whose interests in n
"public affairs end with partisan /.onI I
"and tho advancement of personal ad"
vantage."' We have a candidate for
tho Presidency who m? . the thought of
Cnrlyle. the historian, never spenks
without "saying something/' and more
than that, who TKLLS THE TRUTH.

Mr. John Pearson s Statement.
In the Spring of 1882 I was attacked with a
very bad cough, which continued to grow. ?
worse until Full, when I got so weak that I
oould not get. al>out. 1 tried a great many
kinds of medicino. hut continued to grow
worse. I was notified that I had consumption,
and would probably die. Dr. HolloWay finally
told me to try Brewer's Lung Itestorer. They ~
sent to Ward's Store and got a bottle, and 1
commenced taking it right away After taking
two or three doses. I began to Improve, and by
the time I had used up one bottle I was able to
get on my foet asrnin. 1 am now In excellent
health. I am confident that tho I.ung Restorer
saved my life, ami my neighbors are of the
same opinion. It Ifc the best Lung Remedy
ever made, in my opinion. Dr. H. promised me
that he would write to tho manufacturers and
tell them of tho wonderful cure It medelnmy
case.

Early in November, 1RX1, whllo sewing on th*?
machine. my wife was taken with u severe pain
In her side, which was soon followed by hemorrhages
from her lung* and a severe cough.
Fever commenced, she could neither cat nor
sleep, and In a few weeks slio was reduced to a
living skeleton. Tho attending physician told
mo that he thought one of her lungs was entirely
gone. Slie could not retain tho most
delicate nourishment on her stomach. I then
agreed with Dr. Hulltvan, my fnftiily physician,
to call Dr. Jlolloway In consultation. Thee
made a final examination of tho patient, and
pmnouneod tho cuse ho|>clcss. Dr. Hottoway
then suctrostod the Brewer's I.iinir lfrv?#4\iw? a*
