— Ms&r- '■. V. i«SBl .:. I-,* '-S^v ■ V ■’ ’-’**•>*!* A. rr^r——- S. ihcIVER, 1 -- Editor* Wednesday, November 12,1890 The great Democratic cyclone has Swept the country. Sfruightouts, bide your time! We will trv it again two years from now. The Democratic majority in the 62nd Congress will be over one hun dred. Clark Howell, managing editor of the Atlanta Constitution, has been elected Speaker gf the Georgia House of Representatives. The Straightouts, Tillmanites and Republicans are all to be congratu lated upon their good behavior on the day of election. Lew. Wallace truthfully says: “As a rule, there is no surer way to the dislike of men than to behave well , where they have behaved badly.” The annual conference of the M. E. Church, North, for $outh Caroli na, will be held at Greenville on Feb ruary 5, 1891. Bishop Warren will preside. While we do not belive B. R. Till man capable of a pure thougnt or of doing a good act, if he should ac cidentally stumble upon either while Governor of South Carolina and we hear of it we shall take pleasure in giving him due credit therefor. “Give the devil his dues.” The Alabama General Assembly convenes on yesterday in biennial session. It will proceed at once to count and declare the vote of August last for State officers. Gov. Seay will step down and out, and Hon. Thomas G. Jones, who was selected by nearly one hundred thousand ma jority in August, will be inaugura ted Governor. On November 25th the General Assembly will ballot for United States Senator. “Our Monthly,” published by the Thornwell Orphanage says of Rev. H. C. DuBose: “The last session of the Synod of South Carolina had a delightful experience in the selection of its Moderator, by a unanimous standing vote. Rev. H. C. DuBose, of Soochow, China, was the man. He presided to the satisfaction of all parties i i the Synod, and closed his work with the love of all. May we ever have a Chinese Moderator.” Elected by a Small Vote. After the long and heated cam paign through which the people of the State passed last Summer and the intense feeling displayed on both sides, it is certainly astonishing that the Tillmanites took no more interest in the election than is evidenced by the light vote in nearly all parts of the State. Previous to the election it was predicted that there would be one of the largest votes ever cast in the State, but the result shows that the vote is about the same as it has been for the last two or three guber natorial contests in off years. Till man has the unenviable distinction of having been elected Governor by one of the smallest votes ever known in the State when there were two tickets in the field. The Tillmanites had become tired out with the eter nal wranglings and bickerings of the campaign and had begun to realize that Haskell’s election would have done them no harm. Many of those who sympathized with Judge Has kell questioned the wisdom of split ting the white vote and stayed away from the polls. Therefore, taking all these things into consideration, it may be safely said that Tillman was not only not the choice of tl>e people of the State but it may be questioned if half of the white voters were in favor of his election. Out of a white vote of 75,000 or 80,000 and a colored vote of about 100,000 he has been elected with 40,000. Of course he has gained the object of his ambition and cares little about the number of votes W hich elected him, but if he were the right kind of a man he would feel ii little sore over such a small vote. However, Tillman can not be measured by the standard which is used for other public men.

By the grace and favor of Almighty God the people of this nation liave been closing the days of the passing year, which has been full of the blessings of peace and the comforts of plenty. Bountiful compensation has come to us for the work of our minds and of our hands in every de partment of human industry. Now therefore, I, Benj. Harrison, Presi dent of the United States of Ameri ca, do hereby appoint Thursday, the 27th day of the present month of November, to be observed as a day of prayer aud thanksgiving, and 1 do invite the people, ui>oii that day to cease from their labors to meet in their accustomed bouses of worship, and to join in rendering gratitude and praise to our Beneficent Creator for the rich blessing He luis given to us as a nation, and invoking the con tinuance of llis protection aud grace for the future. I commend to my fellow citizens the privilege of remembering the The United States Senate. When the four Republican Sena tors from Wyoming and Idaho take their seats in December, the United States Senate will stand 51 Republi cans and 37 Democrats. The terms of 28 Senators expire on the 4th of March next. Twelve of these are Democrats, aud Democratic Legisla tures have already chosen four of them and the other eight to be chosen will be Democrats. Of the sixteen Republicans one, Allison, of Iowa, has been chosen, leaving fifteen more to elect. The Democrats will gain of these certainly three, viz: New York, Illinois and Wisconsin. It is reasonably safe to claim New Hamp shire, although the Republicans are resorting to the Returning Board and Montana theft methods to steal the Legislature. Kansas, whatever may be the politics of a majority of the Legislature, is dead against In galls, and may send a Democrat. An anti-tariff and anti-force bill man is sure to be chosen. In South Dakota a state of affairs similar to that in Kansas exists, and Senator Moody, force bill and high tariff Republican, will have to walk the plank. This reduces the Republicans down to 45 and puts up the Democratic aud anti- Republican vote to 43. This gives the Republicans two majority, and these they stole from Montana. arco & Lewenthal, PUBLIC SQUARE, DARLINGTON, S. C. Standard Bred Horses.
