fifteen leading Republican orators

great deal depends on the result of the

of which may decide the election. Iu ,
two weeks the agony will be over. .
^EW Yors. Republicans are not ,
happy. Charges are made that Gover- ,
nor Cornell and Jay Gould were re|".A
cently partners iu a telegraph pooi^and
they had had questionable, interviews
ou legislative enactments. Cornell
is struggling desperately for re- ,
nomination, but Arthur and Conkiirg .

nell is the most scheming and in- ,
triguiug politician th?t ever occupied
J the gul>ernatorial chuir of New York. ,
If the Democrats nominate a strong
ticket they will doubtless sweep the (

The Tribune takes South Carolina
as the example of all villainy. Yet
South Carolina's governor has never

charges brought against Governor ,
Cornell, and the latter has been in- (

half-breed and Cornell is nondescript,

that they are not as South Carolina is.

State Democratic campaign
opens on the last of the month, and
will be vigorously maintained untii :
election dav. The State ticket is corn- '
posed of unusually strong- and active I :
speakers, and they will make hill and ; 1
valley resound with sound Democratic j:
doctrines. The enemies of the p?rty !1
have not yet announced their pro-!
gramme, so it is impossible to predict f.
whether the canvass will be exciting '
^ or not. It will at most be only a con- j ,
test between the Democratic and Radi- j
cal parties. The Greenbackers arc !
makiug no headway whatever. They j(
jg_ have isolatcd.clubs here and there, but j *
- as soon as the issues are thoroughly 5
discussed, the adherents decrease in c
"numbers. They may put up a ticket *
as a mask, but all the strength will |1
come from the Radical ranks. We are I
told that J. Henarix McLane will be | *
a candidate for Congress from this 1
p.r district, Baskins from the seventh, 1
Cash and Tom Mackey from the fifth, ^
Ed Mackey from the first and Smalls 1
or Sam Lee from the seventh. With j 1
one exception these candidates will be j [
left at home. The Democrats have a jk
registered majority, and the party is ; A
more solidly untiled than it has been '
since 1876. Alabama has led ofi* with
!a Democratic majority of 40.1KK), and , v
South Carolina will follow with a like j ]
lieavv majority over Greenbackers and - 1
Radicals combined.
The 2feics and Courier at Tises the j \
State canvassers to discuss economic |
questions upon the stump. This : j.
sound counsel and we trust it will be ; (
heeded. For years local issues have j j
so deeply interested our people that t
they have paid no attention to funda- j c
mental principles, in consequence of c
which a belief has grown up that; a
"there are no differences betweeu the : s
Democratic and Republican parties." j
Never was there a greater mistake, j c
and* it should be corrected at once, j i
* We'have no time nor inclination to 3
enteV into the general question at
present; but desire to call attention to (
one1 fundamental difference, a differ- 1
[ . Once idvolvins:, to a large extent, the <3
material welfare of the people. The a
Republican party is the party of pro
lection, me .uemocrauc parxv auvocates
free trade. Protection means the
spoliation of the million for the aggrandizement
of the few. It dives
into the pockets of the poor men to
swell the coffers of the rich. It oppresses
the Union for the benefit of a
section. Here are some facts. By
means of the protection tariff a surplus
is raised annually amounting1 to $150,
000,00*3. This represents, at the low
est estimate, one and a ha*? per cent
on the gross production of every man
woman and child in the United States
Besides this direct revenue the pro
tected manufacturers are enabled to
chaigj exorbitant prices for their products.
The iron men get a ton
more than their rails are worth, and in
this way they and the other protected
interests pocket $100,000,000 more.
For the benefit of a company in
Michigan and Wisconsin a heavy duty
is imposed on copper. This not only
prevents foreign copper from coming
to Ame-ica, but it actually enables the
Lake Superior Company to export
copper to Europe and sell it there for
five cents a pound less than the price
charged at home. The European merchants
are pledged not to export this
copper back to the United States This
anomaly will bear a good deal of
study, and we advise our readers to
ponder over it.
For the benefit of one man in Philadelphia
a duty of 30 per cent, is levied
on nickel, one of the most important
elements in hardware manufacture.
The Merideu Plated Ware Company
has been compelled to more its works
over into Canada, in order to avoid
this nickel plated steal.
The duty alone ou the steel wire contained
in one bicycle amounts to thirteen
dollars and fifty cents. With free
wire, our manufacturers could make
bicycles cheap enough to sell in the
European markets. As the law now
stands, Europe sends bicycles to
America.
Three hundred thousands tons of
sulphuric acid are annually consumed
in the manufacture of fertilizers. Sulphur
costs America ten dollars a . ton,
while England pays six dollars, and is
thub enabled to ship fertilizers to compete
with our own manufactories. A
repeal of the duty on sulphur would
ensure a reduction in the. price of fertilizers.
Every time a man puts on a wool
hat lie pays from fifty cents to a dollar
and a half to some New England
monopolist. When his wife purchases
a dress she contributes to the wealth
of some other millionaire. Every
newspaper reader adds the hoard of
UCiiaiVl TYUliit'l O ??
patent.
The Democratic party, as a whole,
opposes these frauds, and for this reason,
as for many others, it i< tho pai tv
of the people. Il should ^ucreed.
despite the assessments of Jay HnbVIi
and ihe blind pools of projected interests.
Our Free Education.
Our neighbor, the Newberry Bitaid,
is not pleased with the education
al outlookjof the State, a:?;i insist thai
there should be a thorough shaking up
all round. The Columbia Register
has ably answered a number >?i i\t
strictures of^'ne Herald. and shown
some of the errors into whi .-h ii has
fallen, "While concurring in the a(;*
u?,, a 'jc ?u nMc-cf ieim ins proposed
by the Herald, we feel imrcHed
nevertheless to take issue with ir i.pon
the broad ground that much ha;; bee-;;
accomplished by the public school
system, and that money alone needed
to secure most gratitving1 result...
The Herald begins by saving: '-The
school fund may be roughly summarized
as follows:
uonsiuuuonai tax > 1
Poll tax 175,000
S. C. University
Citadel Academy 1.5,00i>
This is decidedly a rough estimate?
much rougher than should be take:: as
the basis of a severe criticism. As thtUniversity
and Citadel Academy have
not yei opened they canr-cr be called
failures in advance, so rhe argument
recurs to the fund for the public
schools. The constitutional tax of
two mills can easily be estimated from
the assessed value of property in ; lie
State, which is about $120,000,000. The
poll tax collected, according to the
report of the State Superintendent in
1SS0, was $114,607. The school fund,
rh"u, wa? about as follows:
Oonsthiilional tux $240,000
Poii tax 114,607
$854,607
The report of the S*perinfeiuipiit
>hows that the actual expenditures for
the year 1SS0 were $352,910. "'he total
available fund was $415,158. but
tills represents the accrued balances
from previous years and cannot be
taken as the basis of comparison. Now
let lis compare:
TicrnhV S17i>.000
Actual expenditure
Difference $122,090
This is an error of 34 per cent, in the
istimate. No wonder the Herald fails
o see proper results. A farmer n-ho
;ets out in January on an estimated
capital of one-third more than he realy
controls would indeed find himself
.vithout a farm by the end of the year.
The Herald wishes better teachers,
setter commissioners and better trusees.
lu this it is correct, but they
vill not come without more money,
[t also desires a State Superintendent
vho will overlook the whole field and
vill see that every teacher is compeent
and does his duty. Our present
Superintendent lias been as active and
iyilant as it is possible for a man to
je. But here again money is needed,
riie salary is only $2,100 a year, with
i small addition for traveling expenses.
Yet to traverse every county
n the State would require an expenditure
of almost his entire salary. Pay
he State Superintendent more and he
rill he able to travel more.
"We believe that for the money extended
raore has been dona in South
Jarolina than in almost any other
>tate. The population is sparse and
he presence of two races requires a
louble system of schools'; otherwise
me teacher could take the place of two,
,s suggested by the Herald, and enure
a session of double length.
Three hundred and fifty thousand
lollars sounds like a large sum; but
u reality it is very small. Let us some
.dduce farther estimates.
The school attendance in Sonth
Carolina during the past year was
33,458. The education of these chilli-en
for ten months in private schools
1 $25 a pupil, a very moderate estimate,
would require $3,336,450, or almost
ten times the existing revenue. A
: four months session in private schools I
would require $1,334,580, and pay j
; schools conducted for four months j
i would not be any better than free j
. schools conducted for the same time, |
, if iudeed they were as good, for many j
j public school teachers were formerly
:! pa\* school teachers, and then they
. were not under the supervision which
. is now extended over them.
Colonel Thompson has done wonders
tvith the meagre pittance allowed
him; and despite opposition and pre.
j judice the schools are growing in favor
j and in usefulness.
At the risk of being wearisome, we {
! will present a comparative table show- j
ing in round numbers the school popu- i
I lation and tha school fund of a. number |
I of States for 1879. They are worth j
studying:
School School

i Connecticut... 138.000 1,390,000 i

Minnesota 271,000 . 1.394.000
South Carolina 228,000 .. 304,000
Nevada 10,000 - 236,000
In California each-child is entitled to
$17, in Connecticut $10, in Illinois $8,
in Iowa $9, in Kansas $6, in Maine
$5, in Maryland $6," in Massachusetts
$14, in Minhesota^S, in Nevada $23,
and in South Carolina $1.35.- How
long- could a child go to a private
school for a dollar and thirty-live
cents?
If the Herald will ponder these
figures it will see first that the expenditure
for schools in South Carolina
is very small, and if it then studies
the system thoroughly, visits some of
the good public schools an i .-attends a
State Institute or two, it will discover
that the system is not dead, and
that it is not run by incompetents in a
loose, slipshc-d manner.

Messrs. Editors: Notwithstanding
the many -.voids of choer an? encour- <
ageinent I have received from my
friends in different portions of the
county, I have reluctantly determined
to withdraw from the field a> a candidate
for Representative. In doing1 so I
am free from any pique or disappointment.
I rather have good reasons to
believe that I stand as good a chance
of obtaining the nomination as any
one out, laboring under similar disadvantages?of
not being able to canvass ,
the coun ty, from the fact of my present
employment. I trust my "Many .
Friends" will not think me liokle or
ungrateful in withdrawing at this late
j day, for nothing but the most stubborn
t determination to abide their will in all
duties to my country, has kept me in-,
the race so far. The duties I owe my
family will not allow me to leave home
for so lonif a time, besides it would
render it necessary to give up my
present business.
It", Miters, I supposed for a

A Fotc Suggestions as to the Kind of Men
that Fairiicld .should Send to the LegSsla- [
tare.
Messrs. Editors: The primary clec-1
lion b?*ii?<r near at ha id it behooves the j
} people to consider wlo are to represent :
Fairfield cuunty in the Legislature for ;
the next two years: and before that |
election takes place I wish every man !
tx> ask hiuiseir the following-questions: 1
| Are you satisfied? Are you indifier-!
j ent to whom you entrust your interest? j
I Do you tee I confident, !n the etentof;
{<m emergency, that your interest will}
I or can In- protected? These are itnpor- j
taut questions, and satisfactory an-!
swers are essential. For it is not. sufj
ficient that men are actuated by honest
motives and a desire to do what is
J right; but it is requisite that they
j should not only have the honest moi
tives, but have also the ability to defend
those motives. In the good old
! times when there was but one party
j and the choice was not of measures
i but of men, we could afford to ignore
inefficiency, it' not too glsirnff. but. ai
ihe present day, when politics lias be
come a profession, and new issues are
beiiiii' sprunir upon us at every session
of the Legislature, we are forced to
consider tiie intellectual capacity of
our nominees, and select only those
who can stand in the front and i4?five
back as jrood as sent." i tm no advocate
for those "wind makers" who are
only looking to their own advancement,
forgetting- or ne<rlectin<r the
! interests oi their constituents; but we
want si man to represent us who, when i
the occasion arises, will stand boldly j
and see that Fairfield Las her riirhfs.;
regardless of what others inav think. '
! We want a man "who is mixed in no
way with rings, but is free to carry
out his conscientious opinions and act
upon them. We don't want any one
who for his own gain would consent
to sacrifice us and then appeal to our
patriotism to support him. We don't
want any one who will consume the
time of the session in passing trifling
Acts of no benefit to any one?not even
to the parties concerned. We want
some one to look ahead and see where
we are to be benefitted, and if necessary
support those measures. Jn other |
i words, we want a representative who j
j can form an intelligent opinion and act ,
| upon it. For such a man 1 am willing ,
I to cast my vote. Come from where he i
j may, town or country. 1 will support j 1
! hnn. And the people of this county j '
i will do well if they can arr.ve at the i
| same conclusion.

Suicide of Miss Blair.?On Tuesday
last the community in and around
Camden was greatly disturbed by the
announcement that the dead body of
M;ss Charlotte Kochelie Blair, a
d lighter of the late Major L. "\V. II.
Blair, had been found in the woods
some distance from .her home. The
sad intelligence spread rapidly, and
the sorrow of many hearts was expressed
plainly. Miss Blair was a
young girl just blooming into womanhood,
being about eighteen years of
age. Kind and affectionate in her disposition,
with a bright mind stored
with valuable information, she was
loved by all. The circumstances connected
with the sad affair, as brought
out. at tha court of inquest on yesterday
morning, are substantially as follows;a

was absent some time. About eleven
o'clock, Miss Blair not having returned,
search was made for her. After
searching for about an hour, her body
was found in a deep gully, about half
a mile from her home. lier hands were
clenched Mud her body was stiff. Her
remains were carried to the house, a:ud
