The following resolutions were

'Whereas, we believe it to be the
duty of the people to commend or
condemn any line of policy pursued by
their leaders, and that the levying of
taxes is of primaiy importance to all
citizens.
7?/9jvThat *. fa.rrfT for rp.yennft
commensurate with the needs of the
government is the only legitimate object
; for which a tax can "be levied, therefore
. we emphatically denounce the
present system of tariff taxation as
contrary to the fundamental principles
I of- a republican form of government,
j in that, by the imposition of unjust:
burdens on the: people, it creates and
protects monopolies, takes from the
! people a larger sum of money than is
[actually required for the administrai
tion of the government and by accu|
raulating a lage surplus in the national
! treasury encourages corruption among
| public servants.
i Besoivsds That it is the duty of every
good citizen to cheerfully respond to
the reasonable demands made upon
him' by his felloe-citizens, and that
when these demands have been complied
"with it, it should b9 our pleasure
r.s well as our duty to reward the sacrifices
which hare been made. It is the
opinion of this Club that Major T. "W.
Woodward has, by untiring zeal and
[ disinterested devotion to the cause of I
[ Democracy, wen our greatest adruira- j
| lion and esteem. "We deem hire, emi- j
' r.cntly filled for the position to which'
l he has been nominated, and heavtiiy
endorse the action of the Cedar Creek
Club in nominating hira for the Stare
Senate.

County Chairman. Mr. E. B. Hagsdalc
was appointed temporary secretary.
The roll of clubs was called, cr.d
the deiegrates presented their credentials.
Tlic first business in order being the
election of County Chairman, Colonel
Rion nominated Major Woodward,
saying thai the single objection to be
urged agair.sfchis F.cseptanee would be
l\%*\ *\4 'e o
Uw U?W -o u v/uiiu?uubv<
But it should bo remembered that he is
a candidate in a peculiar way. He has
not sought the cSftce, and there will
be r.o opposition to him. It is likely,
continued Colonel Ition,1 thai we shall
need Major Woodward's services in the
approaching campaign, and we should
insist upon his acceptance.
Major "Woodward expressed, very
decidedly, his wish that the position
might be given to another; bnt the
Convention was of quiie a different
mincl, and he was forthwith unanimously
elected by acclamation.
Mr. G. H. llc&Iaeter was unanimously

persons according to their means".
3. That direct taxation.is the only
jure system of levy, bat if public policy
cxacts a departure from this method
then luxuries and not the necessaries
of life should be subjected to the imposiiicm.
4. That a regard for the moral and
physic?.! well-being ot man points to
alcohol and tobacco as luxuries best
fitted to yield taxe?.
5. That inasmuch as it is impolitic
at present to resort to a system of
direct taxation and a Tariff for the support
of government becomes necessary,
import duties should be placed
neon luxuries and noon articles
that arc not produced in this country.

Messrs. Editors: In response to the
very kind invitation of Mr. J. S. Brice,
the very efficient and go-abead Principal
of the White Oak School, the
writer on last Thursday morning
might have been seen wending his
way to the Village of the Oaks. Notwithstanding
we arrived at the Academy
at an early hour, we found the
teacner, 111 presence oi a number
of persons, and among whom we
noticed several experienced teachers?
Mr. Bigham, Principal of Lowrysville
School; Mrs. Powell, of Pine
Grove School; and Mrs. Caldwell,
who foi* a number of years presided
over the White Oak School, but who,
we were sorry to learn, thought of
giving up teaching altogether. Fairfield
cannot afford to lose the services
of such a: teacher, and we hope she
may change her mind and give the
sons and danglers 01 Jbairncia we
beneSt of her experienced instruction
for many years to come. No special
preparation, we learned from patrons
and I ;.cher, had been made by the
pupils for the examination, which was
certainly very thorough, and the
promptness and accuracy with which
the questions pat by the teacher and
i others were answered, gave evidence
j of ihe f:ict that the pupils were receiv
j inir eiich training as the children of
| our State need.
j The psop'e of this section take great
| interest in the cause of education, and
leave no stone unturned to give to
j their children every opportunity that
will prepare them for future usefui!
ness and for the duties of life. So
i earnest and interested was the teacher
i that after so long a time, he remembered
j that the "iunet* manner" Had not been
j attended to, and gave an intermission
| of one hour for this purpose. We had
the pleasure of dining with an old and
j valued friend, Dr. G., and family. With
I the inner jnan fully attended to, we
| felt as If we could staud it finely the
j rest of the day, and at the appointed
j time reported for doty. The exercises
I were continued late in the afternoon.
: This completed, all were willing to
| rest until morning, and having-enjoy-'
i ed the hospitality of our friend j&tr.
| and ilrs. II., we arose in the morning
! greatly refreshed, and ready for anoth!
er day's work. We were glad to see
J our friend M? " present, who,
| we'nave no doubt, will give you a fu.'J,
*. - l -x* x\ i
> accuuuuui uie prumjutuugs wi ti.ic uitj.
In order to hear the debate at night,
wc remained over, enjoying the hospitality
of onr friend Mr.andMrs. Bobt'
J Patrick. The question, "which is might?the
Pen or the Sword?" was ably
s\
IHjpip
discussed by Miss IT. Yongue and j
ifr. Brice, for the affirmative, and by
Miss Robertson raid Mr. G. Bonlware,
for the negative. The committee appointed,
decided, that the negative
had the advantage.
So well pleased were we with onr!
visit to the Village of the Oaks, that j
bad not our presence been required at
the Ccnnty Convention, we are not
certain bnt that we would have accepted
kind invitations extended, and
spent a day or two more with our '
friends in that section.
"Wo hope however to be able to visit
them again. c.
THE BOT8 rx COLUMBIA.
A Good Becord and a Glorious Time.
Messrs. Editors: I feel as if some
few words of commendation should be
I spoken for the fire company of oar
| town who made such a creditable disi
play at Columbia on the 18th and 19th
J inst. They did the hard work of fire|
men with such good will and untiring
j energy as to reflect credit upon onr
j town and the county at large. "Wo
i feel assured that they have done as
well as any company could do, and
that they attended for the first time a
tournament where the crack compa*
nies of three States were to compete
for the chamDionshiD. Thev did not.
as we bad expected, carry away any
of the first prizes, bat still the second
was won by them in the State contest,
winch was not so bad when we consider
the disadvantages they labored
under, from the want of a full complement
of men and time to practice.
They entered every race, both engine
and reel, which we think was a great
mistake, for the reason that they had
to compete with men in every instance
Tuhri Vior? rouiriro/1 fhotricoWoc f/M*
the particular contest. Despite this
they made as fast time in the run as
any, although at the hydrant in one
instance they failed, which arose from
an unavoidable accident. We, with a
great many who had not local pride to
bias their opinion, think that our boys
should have been awarded the first
prize in the State engine race. They
made the. run of two hundred yards
and threw water in 53? seconds, which
was beaten by the Hope, of Florence,
who made it iu 51}. A protest was
instantly entered by the president of
the Alert, but for some reason it did :
not reach the judges until the time had ]
been announced from the judges' stand; '
and they thought it might cause great
confusion, and no doubt they acted :
right in deciding that the protest was .
received too late. The rules require
that the hose should not be unreeled
until the reel reached the well, but the
Hope Company began to unreel some
thirty-five or forty feet above the well,
consequently violating this requirement.
"We * feel sure had they conformed
to the rules our company
would have borne away the first honors
in this.contcst.
Wc believe that the company will

reception given them on their arri- 1
val by the Independents, of Columbia,
who met them at the depot and escort- ;
ed them to their hall, where a sumptuous
repast awaited them. The Independents
did honor to the hospitality
of the capital in the banquet, but the
Boro boys did honor to them, for they,
by their" vigorous onslaught upon the
viands, showed their appreciation of
Columbians unprecedented welcome.
We therefore offer our congratulalatious
and thanks to Columbia, and
especially to the Independents. They
won one of the mizes. we'would
rather have done so ourselves, bat
since each a worthy company" wears
the laurel wreath of victory we are not
envious. One of the Boys.
