The Ohio election, it is claimed, j
cooked Mahone's goose in Virginia, j
"We hope so.
No less than five hundred colored
voters went with the Democrats in
Cincinnati. They were tired of being j
slaves to an ungrateful party.
Tiie Radical party managers arc!
now looking to the South with thej
lioj)e of recovering the losses in Con- j
gressmen from other sections.
The Philadelphia Jlecord says the
Republicans have given up the State

working to save the Legislature and as
many Congressmen as they can.

The final returns from Ohio give
the Democratic State ticket between
17,000 and 18.000 majority, and show
the election of thirteen Democratic
Congressmen to eight Kepublican.
The Democrats express an intention
to contest the election in one district.
Charges have been made by certain
parties that the Government endeavored
to bribe the Washington jury in the

|vr. A press dispatch from Cincinnati
announces tiie election of Xeal, Democrat,
in the 12th Ohio district, over
Heart, Republican, by a maioritv of
I three on the official count. This makes
fiiteeu Democrats to six Republicans
as the count now stands, and if Wallace
in the eighth district makes good
his contest against McKinley, which he
probably will, it will stand sixteen to
five?and that's good enough for Ohio.
General "Wolseley is now reported
as being a great smoker, chiefly of
cigarettes. He considers tobacco the
best possible restorative after prolonged
mental or physical exertions. On
occasions when be has had to keep
awake and alert for hours he has
found tobacco more effectual than
coffee, and he has smoked all night
long. The cigarette trade has been
languishing lately, but this will revive
it perhaps.
General Butler is about to storm
the Massachusetts State House for the j
sixth time. In 18^9 he ran against j
General Banks. In 1SG0 he tried it
again; also in 1871. In 1878 he failed
of nomination. In 1879 he polled
110,000 votes, the largest vote ever!

five million dollars and has a law prac- i

tap again.
A prominent New York electrician,
in speaking of the use that could be
made of electricity as a defensive nieasure
in time of war, says: "Suppose 1 i
& had in a fort a steam fire engine, with j
a hose that would throw a stream ofj
i- ; water a quarter of an inch w diameter j
p^*; three hundred feet. Now, if I had j
one end of a Brush machine grounded, I
and the other end connected with the !
water pnshinsr through th<> i
I very instant the stream of water strnck !
a line of troops that were advancing to I
attack the fort it would kill them. The <
stream would then be really a flexible ;
clectric wire, and, as it swept along '
the line of men, it would mow them S
down like grass. If a thousand men'
were to march op in a solid body they !
could all *>e killed in ten seconds. It j
would be absolutely impossible to take ;
the fort. It could be used with equally i ,
lemuie euect m uavaJ warfare."
Sensational reports are again being ! 1
spread that the great comet now blazing
in the morning ?ky will return
next vear. fall into the sun, and by the I
collision increase the the sun's heat to :1
such a degree .that all living things
upou the earth may be destroyed.
This, of courss, is based upon the j
theory that the present comet is identi- ? t
|g cal with the great comet of 18S0, and j e
that every time it approaches the sun ! p
| y" "It does so in a narrower orbit thau be-; t;
kAF fore. In fact, however, the most care- I E
? fnl observations of the comet go to j r
show that it is not identical' with the i 1
comet of 1880. The mathematicians c
^ who are now at work on the problem j t
^ say it cannot return in less than eight: a
fe: *?r ten years. It may be identical with 11!

The National Republican, the organ j
>f the Administration,"rakes a hopeful!
new of the situation, despite the bad ! f
news from Ohio. Here is what it ^
says: ij
"We desire to say to the readeas of j
the National Republican that mid the j
wreck of matter and the crash of 1
worlds in Ohio, they are not to forget 1
that the old Commonwealth of Vir- t
ginia will elect John S. "Wise to be i
Congressman-at-large by a majority j
ranging from twenty to thirty thou-| 1
sand, and that the old Bourbon fossils : <
will not be able to contribute more ; i
than two or three members from that1 ,
State to the caucus of their party.
We would also remark that North j
Carolina will send five or six Con- 1
pressmen, including JJocKery as iucui- > i
Lor at large. |:
The great Union party which is to i
prevail in 1^34 will have enough South-; :
ern Stutes in the grand procession to j
supply the places of any Northern j;
States which may lag behind.
The organ must be of a sanguine j
temperament. We are giad to observe j
that it counts on nothing in particular |
from South Carolina. It will thus avoid j
deep disappointment. In North Carolina,
the latest information points to a
general increase of Democratic unity,
and the chances are decidedly against
the Liberal-Radical movement-. In the !
other Southern States things seem to |
mnvjno- on in a wav to satisfv the i
o . .
Democrats, and no Radical triumph is
anticipated. The Republican is
whistling to keep up its courage.
Democratic Firares.
Figures, 'Ihey say, never lie. It may i
be interesting to look a little into the |
figures of Democratic government, as
compared with those of Radical oppression.
These figures are as striking j
in Fairfield county as anywhere else in j
I the State. A co nparison of the sub-1
joined schedules will show the differ-!
ence in favor of an honest and intelli- j
gent conduct of the public affairs, as j
j seen and felt in this county. The State j
tax for the past eight years is as follows:
j For 1871-72 ?84.500 j
j For 1872-73 58,000 !
| For 1875--74 57.0(H) j

J why the good people of Fairfield are
; not willing to return to liadical rule,
j even though accomplished through the
j sucecss of the Greenbaek-Xcgro ticket.
Freight Discriminations.
The business men of Charleston arc
much exercised on the subject of
i freight discriminations. A committee
j of the merchants attended on the re
i cent Democratic County convention
j and set forth their grievances before
i that body. The discriminations are
j y? l'.ViIV1 [fllll 1 hi*Arl/mnigton, Columbia
& Augusta and the North Eastern.
The committee say:
It may be known to every member
of this conventipn that nearly every
railroad in South Carolina is now eith'
crowned or leased by the Richmond &
Danville combination, but we doubt if
it is understood that the immense power
of this gigantic corporation is being
used all along its lines by means of
discriminations in their recently
| adopted freight rates to divert cotton
j that legitimately and naturally belongs j
j to Charleston, to Richmond and Xorj
folk and other ports.
! i ne njeicijiuus men 110 uu iu suuvv ;
! how it is that "it cost? fifteen cents a j
! bale more to bring a bale of cotton j
j (500 pounds) from Charlotte, Is. C-, to j
| Cnarleston, about 225 miles, than to
: carry it to Richmond, a distance of 300 j
j miles, and only ten cents a bale more i
j to carry it to Norfolk, 390 miles, than
! to Charleston.
j So, from Winnsboro it is shown
how* it costs $2.25 to carry a bale of
j cotton to Charleston, 170 miles; to
j Richmond, 340 miles, $2.50; to Norfolk,
420 miles, $2.72.
So, from union, S. C.? it costs but
fifteen cents a bale more to carry cotton
to Richmond than it does to
Charleston, though the distance to
Richmond is twice as great. Union is
198 miles from Charleston and 4o0 to
Richmond. The same discrimination
is shown from every other point to a
greater or less degree.
These arc certainly matters of grave
importance to Charleston, and the
friends of the city hope that some relief
may be afforded. It may be found
difficult to appiy a remedy, by legisla-!
tion, that will cure the evils of which
Charleston complains. Iler trouble is
ll _ A A 1 -3* A* f I
mat inese discriminations come iroia
i
the fact that the railroads traversing
the sections from which the trade of 1
the city must come? are all controlled 1
by parties whose interests are not 1
identical with those of Charleston. (
The truth is, there has scarcely been
a railroad movement in South Carolina *
since the war which has not operated J
adversely to the business of the I j
metropolis. IIow far the Charleston ;;
people have been negligent of their j J
own interests, ana now iar tnev nave :
i 1
depended upon the idea that the trade i
of the State must go to them, are que?- j c
tions which have often occurred to jc
their friends, and which yet remain J.
matters of great doubt.
"We trust something may be done to j
remove the difficulties under which t
Charleston is laboring. Legislation (
svill be invoked. But we have much .
ess confidence in legislation than in j r
;he efforts of those directly interested.!

A Word of Warning. j ^
It is now a little less than two weeks j a
ill the day of the general election?an j a
lection to decide whether the honest I i'
>eople of South Carolina are to con- ; I
inue in the enjoyment of good govern- j ii
uent or see the State remanded to the 1 a:
tile of negroes, Radicals and traitors.
.tie democrats ot south uaroiina, i l
olored as well as white, must realize ; 1)
he importance of the contest and act! P
ccordinglv. They must understand t'
fiat ali that was gained in the Strug- hi
;le of Seventy-six is at stake in the pi
treseut issue. .If the Greenback
regro ticket, or any part of it, shall j (
ucceed. that success means the resto- j tl
ation of all the evils which grew out j c:
f the domination of the party led by ; o
cott, Moses and the rest of the "rob-; b
7 |
>er band." The peace of the State, i p
he rights of the people, the property j e
if the citizens, none of these can be c
,ny safer under the rule of McLanc j h
ban they were under Scott or Moses.
klcLane would be a mere cipher in the j e
Governor's office, aud soon the cor-! 1?

unt element would run riot as they j t
lid in the palmiest days of Radicalism. C
riie dangers incident to a triumph of 1
lie Greenback-Radical ticket are quite 4
is serious as those which confronted i J
he ;;<>r.eat people of the State six years : \
igo. The necessity for a sweeping' ?
victory of the Democratic |)arty is just i c
is urgent. The opposition, weak j c
iiough it may seem, is just as deeply j t
>ent upon capturing the State govern- \
ment as Chamberlain was upon hold-! (
ing it. Nor does ilcLane lack the! j
sympathy of the Administration at ^
Washington, which gave Chamberlain ' ]
all the strength he possessed. The i J
Radicals are in fu'l sympathy with the ! <

case, the enemies now in front of the i
good people of the State are two?the

McLane, and the organized Radical!

here, backed by the Radical organization

as elsewhere, to mass their forces for
the battle on the seventh of November.
Every man who loves his State, who j
appreciates the benefits of good gov-;

MeLaiie's Mendacity. j
The XulioiHil Viae, n Greenback
paper published at Washington, contains
an account of an interview with
Mr. J. Hendrix McLano, the Greenback-Negro
candidate for Governor.
After telling the old story, so often reI
i>,- c.ilaivoo-c rl pamof.-hay

jrers, about the social ostracism, intolerance
and political persecution
practised bv the Democrats, McLane
' 1 r jLn-u J1.1H ji^uinocru-"
! cy?
McLane.?It originated in 1S75, and
was then an open declaration of war
against carpet-bag rule, they claiming
that Senator Morton and other Kepublican
leaders were shaking a figurative
! bloody-shirt in the North, and the |
| Democratic leaders of South < arolina
j advised their followers to adept the
| red-shirt as their political badge or
j uniform.
i Did you wear ft red-shirt?
I McLane.?No, I did not: nor did T
advise or favor its adoption by others.!
What were the labor resolutions I
adopted by the Democracy in 1*76?
McLane.? They were siuiply a series
of resolutions declaring that they
would not employ or give any countenance
to any man, white or colored,
who voted against the Democratic
ticket.
Did you favor these resolutions?
McLane.?Xo: I opposed their adoption
on the grounds that they were impolitic
and wrong, and it carried out
wouid bring on a race conflict. I also
opposed the section of the Democratic |
platform requiring every member of I
flip IWI'tV to liimcolF tr\ tmi.iAvl 1
? , ^ ".fP"
the entire ticket from President down i
What is the pretext upon which the !
red-shirt organization is kept up now?
McLane.?There is no real reason for
it now. It is kept alive by dcsi<fnin?r
leaders, by appeals to the prejudices of
their followers, as a menace to free
speech and a free btdlot.
What other means do the Bourbons
use to perpetuate their power?
A T,.T TI.a.. I. ~ 11 ~ J i
? mcj Mini uauoi-uoxes,
make false returns under oath, intimidate
voters to an extent that is perfectly
alarming, and almost incredible to
those who do not witness it; they even
resort to violence and murder right
here. I desire to say that this system
of political fraud is not only destroying
the liberties of the people, but it
is demoralizing society in all its phases
and absolutely threatens to destroy all 1
honesty and virtue iu the church as 1
well as the State. I
As evidence of this, I need only say j
that it is a common thing fur the Democrats
to practise fraud on each other 1
in their primary election and eonven- '
tions; and worse, still, the same corrupt
methods are being practised in
the churches in their elections.
Are the people getting awa!--e to the
jvil results of this system of fraud?
MeLane.?They are. IVe arc now in
.he midst of a political revolution, and j
;he issue is, freedom of speech and
uirity of the ballot. In this contest
:he masses of the people of both races
ire in heartv accord with the opposih,*
f>^ i t\
itjii IA? uu: uuiiruuil Ul'IUUCraCV.
What cfli'ct- docs Democratic success
11 the'North have upon the South?
McLane ?A very bad effect. It en- c
:ou rages the Bourbons in their career a
>1'fraud and violence, and thus makes ' j
ifc and liberty still more insecure ^
villi us.
In every one of these answers there J1
s more or less of falsehood. As to j $
he use of red shirts, they were iutro- h
iuced first in Edgefield in 1S76, but j *
vere by no means in general use in i
^airfield till the campaign of 1878. Xo ! u
uestiou was ever made in this countv ! c.
. ( u
the propriety of this uniform, ami ! { i
IcLane never had any opportunity to < 1
dvise or oppose its use. But he was j ,,
hot Democrat, even advising the kill- c<
ig of negroes to carry the election,
ti 187S, when red shirts first came l*
CT i
?to fashion here, he was a sorehead p
nd a disorganizes w
As to the "labor resolntioirs," Meane,
far from opposing them, actual
jjtl
' went through the county, in com- jt]
any with Major Woodward, to urge ol
ie people to stand firmly by them. If!
e was at heart opposed to them, he ^
laved the hypocrite to perfection. w
On the subject of the Eighth Article j a.
pledging all Democrats to support! jr
ieir nominees) there was some differ- j ^
ncc of opinion. Whether McLane ^
Imposed it, we do not precisely remem- ti
er, but if he did his course in that b
articular was at variance with his 1
verv other act and utterance in the j ?
ampaign of187G. lie was one of the ! \
otfest straightouts in the county. t
The charge of stuffing ballot-boxes, 1
? =< f
(c.j is very stale. To this it is need-;
sss to reply, except by reference to i,
he recent trials in the United States j t
/Ourt. Notwithstanding the efforts of! J
dr. Melton, the picking of juries, the j t
'stand-aside" dodge, and the aid of j,
fudge Bond, there was but one con- J1
iction, ai:d that one so glaringly ille-!(
,ral that even Judge Bond had the j J
lecency to set it aside. The Demo- j j
iratic party were put on trial, and 5
hey could not be convicted.
But McLane goes further. He j j
charges fraud within the Democratic I
>arty, and among Democrats as iudi- J i
" -- ?i.;c ! !
ciciliais. tic re rie siiuj^i; ??u. ??*> ,
propensity to tell sweeping falsehoods. [n
rare instances, irregularities have .
occurred in Democratic primaries, but
they were at once checked andi.repudiited.
The charge against individuals
would hare more weight, and be less I
contemptible, if McT/ine would name
the men. Dare he do it? Till then he
must be stamped as a slanderer and a
coward.
Not content with slandering his political
opponents, McLanc goes a step
further and charge:; that "the same
corrupt methods are being practised in
the clinches in their elections." This
is the worst of all. We denounce the
charge as an outright falsehood, an
insult to the church, and an outrage
upon every man and woman who professes
Christianty. Other men have
maligned the people of South Carolina.
Carpet-baggers and home-born traitors,
for the sake of office, have before told
falsehoods upon cur people. But it j
has been left for Mr. J. Hendrix Mc- j
Lane, whom Mr. David R. Feaster j
lauds as a "pure, moral Christian," to I
traduce the character of our churches, j
No such libel was ever put upon our
people, oven by Scott or Moses or j
Parker or Neagle cr E. \Y. M. Mackev.
In his malignity ai d his disregard for j
the truth, Mr. J. Hendrix McLane
(Mr. David K. Fe asters model or a j
Christian gentleman) has surpassed j
them all.
Are the people cf Fairfield willing
to let such a creature disgrace the
office of governor and put them back
under negro rule? Let them answer
on the seventh of November, by burying
McLane and all his dirty co-adjliters
out of sight forever!
A BOUT Gil J: EXBACKiiliS.
Jfesirs. Editors: A subject for
Greenback Ism i> a man that has financially
failed himself, and ha* repudiated
his own debts if not i:i word-, in
deeds. Some of its prominent advocates
that want to do so much for the
State and for suffering humanity have
failed as yet to push their own linan;
cial canoe ashore and keep their own
j little finances and paper at par. Why
i is it that they want to control t!ii>
State government? Si-rely not ro pay

' foreign credit and htnue integrity.
There mast be something wrong about
this thing. A man that cannot roll a
wheel-barrow would hardly start a

J guess they would not object io having
absolute control of the State treasury.
| Some of them arc right good fellows,

have such a vast number of deadheads,
according to size, yet all these
men, as soon as their names are put on
the Greenback rod. become honest and
ready to be leaders. Why, they take
boys under age t<; the State convention
to vote tor irieasires to bring about a
fair count and a free vote. If all reports
and their words be true, they
like a free vote, wl.cn some of them j
boast of voting seven tickets. And f '
would not he surprised if McLane j

A Sfcr?ins Letter from Counfy Chairman
AVo<)dv.'ar<l- The Ileal Facts about the
Gathering IIi-re -A Few Words as to ti?e
Sirusjfie in South Caroliaa.
The following1 is a copy of a letter
j addressed to the Washington NationI
ul Republican by Major T. W. Woodi
ward, the Democratic County (Jhair;
man of Fairfield county:
Wimvsbouo. S. C., October 14.
; To the Editor of the National liepublican,
Washington: My attention
; has been called to the account of an
i interview with Mr. J. Ilcndrix McLaue,
which I understand was first
i published in your issue of the 7th Ocj
glaring of llieni. My right to be heard
| and to give shape to my own testimony
j will not be denied, and I therefore ask
u plaoe in your paper for this purpose.
Mr. McLane says: "Soon after our
! arrival we were informed that Colonel
l Thompson, Bourbon candidate for
Uovernor, had, on the; 18th, wixilc iici!
dressing (lie people at this placc, publicly
said: 'You remember the reception
you gave Taft here in 1880?
Well, when McLane comes here on the
2orh jive him the same kind of a reception
or a worse one'" Continuing,
lit tho next paragraph he says that
lie (I) admitted that Thompson had
used the language attributed tr him."
Now, Mr. Editor, although I think it
a pity that this fine sensational canard
should oe interfered with, still the
truth of history requires at my hands
a countcr-stateinent.
When a<ked by the IJcv Mr. Durham,
candidate for superintendent of
education on Mr. McLane's ticket, if
Colonel Thompson had used the lan iuarge
in question, I snid distinctly to
him, in McLane's presence, in MoLa
ne's room, whither I had been in%'iteil
by McLane, "Please understand
that I am not here to be picked by you,
and as I see that you contemplate a
little cheap newspaper notoriety ami
propose to figure as martyrs you will
have to procure your details elsewhere:
it is not my custom to supply ammunition
to uiy adversaries. But {is regard.
nit; Ui V^lUWUUl JL llUlli J?LM1 I IIU
say that the account given you is incorrect,
garbled and distorted, for no
one in that assembly with an ounce of
brains and an iota of honesty could
understand from the single humorous
allusion to the Tat't meeting that Colncl
Thompson wished any violence
done you." And I said further: "Quiet
your apprehensions, for I assure you
that no harm will come to you from
this source."
j aver most solemn I v, first, that Colonel
Thompson did not use the language
given by McLane, and secondly.
Unit 1 made no such admission. These
are two of ttnr~nine inaccuracioe j>nt
forth bv Mr. McLane and Company,
evidently designed to help a hope.ess
contest, for noue.'know better t ian
Messrs. McLane and Durham that
Lheir treatment at Winnsboro was no;
iven remotely attributable to anything
which Colonel Thompson said or did
taring his stay here.
But there was a row, a mob, soiled,
and McLanc's shirt collar was
orn open and his person kicked.
til of which is to be deplored and I
egret it, especially as it was an e.vlii>ition
of "plantation manners" and
:onstituted "Bourbon barbaritv." It
ias been h great misfortune in the pas',
is it is in the present, that the people
>f the two sections of these States
lave never properlv understood each
chor, and have not exercised that
harity which a change of circuintances
required. Had you and I, Mr.
Editor, gone to some trouble to assem>le
in a small town, in California for
distance, a large irathering of Chinese
or the purpose of operating upon
heir prejudices, by incendiary speeches
nd for personal cuds, i. e. because we
/anted office, don't you think that the
robabilities arc that we would have
nen Strang up to a lamp post? Snposo
that we had selected a time when p
; was known that all the white citiens
of rhe county would be otherwise
ngaged, and had called together 1,500 1
r 2.WO Indians in some town of the q
Northwest of less titan 200 white _
oters, thereby ondangeiing the pcace
f the State and jeopardizing the prop- >4
ty of the town solely because you *
ished to be governor and I to be c'
uifirintendent of wliiMti/in tliut tl
fter the decency and intelligence ofj^
le country had indicated that others c:
ere preferred, doirt yon think that "
e would have been hoiked upon the earest
limb?

ud Company had made great efforts 2
o assemble a mass meeting of Kadical,
rnorant negroes, who were to ride to
lie town in organized hands and com- g
tariies. It is well known that they
Iways come armed with pistols,
azors. bludgeons and such other wea>0115
as can be had, making threats
hat their women are to burn the houses
.lid kill the white women and children
vhilst they light the men.
I had been apprised of the con tern- 5
dated movement some weeks before ' g
>y an unusual sound of preparation in j j
lie Leagues'' and by actual in fur ma-! c
ion from some of the better class i f
imongst the colored people; and hence j c
t was that I changed the day of our i ~c
wimary election which would, coming | ?
>n the same dav, have compelled all ot'; ]
>ur country clubs ?o have remained at i !
heir own boxes, and would have left i
inr little town at the mercy ot MeLane j
xnd his Radical negroes. > j i
Here, then, is the cause of this { }
reno n against McLane, and I so told i ?
iiim upon the day of the row, but he | j
;lid not choose to publish this part of j *
my testimony. jmu i>>r uiu michuvhu ,
efforts of most of us. there might have ; <
been another Lancaster affair "here ; J
which would have served the purposes j
of these new aspirants better, for the j j
slaughter of a score or more of negroes j 1
would have furnished considerable j '
grist for the outrage mills, and drawn j
attention, whilst McLane and Durham !
transported their trembling carcasses j ;
to places of greater safety. 1
"Whoever will take the trouble to con- ! <
suit the chronicles of this old Palmetto j
State from her earliest history to the
present time will find that the county
of Fairfield has been noted for the hosnf
its !TH!ii and the elegance
? ?
and culture of its women. But with- <
out reference to this is it not more rea- k
sonable when a man is mobbed to conclude[that
the man was the evil-do^r than ,
that a whole community are villains? J
And such is the rule applied everywhere
and in ail eases, except towards
the South and where a Radical is the
sufferer. We advocate free speech <
and tlie liberty of the Press as much as j
any people under the sun, but there I '
are also such things as licentiousness , -1
of expression and profligacy of jour- i <
nalism, which are two of the greatest j '
curses that can be imposed upon a j <
country. If, as I now believe, our i
people are struggling against these i <
evils and not against persons or politi- j (
cal creeds, let me ask that the good j 1
people of the Xorth will stay theirj
judgment and let us work out our re- j!
