THE NEWS AND HERALD. wtkxsbobo, s. u. wednesday, august 4, : : : j 88g. JXO. S. KFYXOLDS ) y editors. tt. L. 2TC&OXALD.1 ) The County Executive Committee. We are authorized by the County Chairman to announce that there will be a meetingof the Democratic County Executive Committee in the Town Hall, Winnsboro, on Saturday the 7th inst., at eleven ox-lock a. ra. A full attendance is requested. On the 23rd ult. Mrs. Cleveland became twenty-two years of age. The event was celebrated in a very qaiet way ot the White House. May she live to enjoy many more similar occasions. Among the visitors at the Citadel commencement we noticed the name of Gen. R. R. Hemphill, of the Abbeville 3Iedium. Is it possible that he is going to bury the hatchet on the Cita- j del question? President Cleveland lias referred the oleomargarine bill, which recently passed both houses of Congress, to Attorney General Garland, in order that he may pass upon its constitutionality. It is possible the veto power may be exercised. There has been much excitement in j Texas over the insult offered to Con- ! stil Brigham and the imprisonment of ; Cutting by the Mexican authorities. The Texatis are in a warlike spirit, v but the difficulty will probably be settled without bloodshed when the two governments shall have entered into negotiations. With only two dissenting votes the Georgia Democracy on the 28th ult. nominated Gen. John B. Gordon for Governor. The campaign just closed has been one of the liveliest in the history of Georgia politics. South Carolina congratulates Governor Gordon, and extends her best wishes. There is still much talk in the papers as to who burned Columbia. Gen. Sherman admits in his "Memoirs" that he did it and charged it upon Hampton in order to prejudice his people against him. This seems to ns i to be conclusive enough. If anybody does know Sherman certainly does, and his testimony should settle it. It is seemingly a question, however, that will never cease. The following paragraph is now going the rounds of the press: Ex-Governor Moses is reported to be in a failing condition in the Massachusetts penitentiary. He was deemed at the age of thirty to be the most brilliant and promising man in South Carolina, and he is the only instance in American history where an exGo rernor became a common convict. A leading exchange timely re narks that if justice was meeted out there would be many more of the llepubli^ -can crew in similar institutions. The Greenville 2feics ami L?r. j Smith, of Spartanburg, are in sympathy. Smith thinks the South Carolina College ought to have been burnt by Sherman and his fellow-scoundrels. The JY'eics thinks the College should now be destroyed by hostile legislation, under the pretext of affording better education for the "masses". Happily for the good name of the State, neither Dr. Smith nor the News has much following among her intelligent citizens. The appeal for help from the Georgetown negroes at this season of the year is very unwise. Give them work if this can be done, but let us not feed them in idleness, unless we expect to continue it for nine months. It is to be feared that there will be suffering next winter from the failure of crops in some parts of the State, but this should the more stimulate all to work noio while yet it is summer. Many crops can yet be raised?all the fall and winter vegetables for instance. Sweet potato slips can be planted. The turnip season has hardly come. Even corn will make good roastingears. Doura corn has plenty of time yet to mature. Besides, the low country rivers abound in fish. In fact, few will need any help next winter if every one will do what he can now to provide against suffering. A cablegram from London says that the British Cabinet will be made nr\ fir?llr\rca "r " - Secretary for war, Right Hon. Win. Henry Smith. First lord of the admiralty, Lord George Hamilton. Lord high chancellor, Lord Salisbury. Secretary for India, Right Hon. Frederick Arthur Stanley. Lord president of the Council, Viscount Cranbrook. President of the local government board, Right Ron. Henry Chaplin. President of the board of trade, Eight Hon. Edward Stanhope. Postmaster-general, John Manners. First commissioner of works, Right Hon. David Plunkett. Attorney-general, Hon. R. E. Webster. Lord chancellor ot Ireland, Lord ; Asburn. The first three of the above are ofli- j cial announcements. Oxe Dr. R. M. Smith, a candidate j for the Senate, in Spartanburg county, . is now catching it on all sides, for a speech he recently made before a meeting of farmers. He expressed regret j that the South Carolina College was' s j not burnt by Sherman when that ofli-1 cer ordered the destruction of Columbia. This utterance is universally I condemned (except, of course, by the ; Greenville JVe?cs), and it has led to some inquiry into Smith's record white he was a member of the House in Radical times. It is shown, by the report of the Joint Investigating Com-. raittee appointed in 1877, that Smith ; was comiptible and corrupt. It is pleasing to note that the press of the Stale, including some paper?: opposed to some featu' es in the present conduct of the State College, express disgust at his recent utterances, i Every decent man in the State will! rejoice at the defeat which the good i people of Spartanburg will surely j ! visit upon this man Smith. A "Washington correspondent says: Senator Ridaleberger continues to i I make himself very conspicuous in the j ' Senate. I saw him the other day | rising nearly every live minutes, inter- i i rupting speeches, putting funny points , of order, and doing everything in his ; power to shock the dignity and deco- j i rum of the Senate. Tliddlebergcr is ! is rattle-headed, often incoherent, and | makes himself very obnoxious, but he has a strange faculty of nearly always | getting on the right side of every i question, and while some of his points i j may ue ioousii, yet lie has uttered a < number of very disagreeable truths on the floor of the Senate in regard to its methods of conducting bitMness. Ilis eyes are full and heavy; his nose is large and straight, and a long brown ! moustasiiC and thick beard tall upon his breast. He wore a close buttoned- ; up frock suit, buttoned at its two ' lower buttons and left open iu such a , : way as to give the appearance of a; | very expansive chest. A small yellow ; i daisy was in his button-hole. His: I trousers were gray and strapped over very tightly-fitting, highlv-polished boots; his voice is rich and deep, while j ! his gestures were extravagant and thoroughly exasperating in their hick of dignity. The Senators, for all the world, looked like a pack of nice, discreet, timid old women, who were obliged to sit in a room and listen to : the talk of a very bold, bad, reprobate young woman who had no for | proprieties. All of the Senators | looked as if they were ready to pick I up their skirts and run, screaming | with protests of propriety, into the i modest recesses of the cloak rooms Riddleberger is ignored by all cf the Senators with a grimness of shocked propriety that is very funny. Not one of them will reply to a single point he makes, and it is very rarely that lie is noticed by any of them, and then only when he absolutely forces himself upon their attention*. From the above it is readily seen that the days of the Virginia Senator are about run in the United States Senate. Justice, though slow sometimes, comes at last. ? . The Piimary System. The question of nominating State j and Congressional officers by the pri-j mary system is just now the subject1 of considerable discussion throughout our State. The system has been adopted by many of the counties as the fairest and most satisfactory way of nominating county officials, and it is now sought to establish it as the plan for nominating State and Congressional officers. The system has worked most satisfactory in .all the counties where it has been adopted, but when it is sought to extend it to all officers we think there are grave questions tf-hich present themselves and go far to prove that the plan is not only impracticable, but it defeats the very ! AVvin/kf rr? rtli 1 ^ ??An?V?f 4- r\ Ka UUJtJlsl/ W IJllsli 1C> OUU^lIl LV UUUVIIJ^U. } Take, for instance, oar own Congressional district, and lei us see how the the plan would work. At present' Fairfield has a representation in the j Congressional Convention of eight j votes, while Greenville has only ten, ' or two more votes than Fairfield. Our county polls about sixteen hundred j Democratic votes, while Greenville: polls, we think it safe to say, four' times that many. 1: takes no tion from this lo- show tliat if tlle^W^' mary system should be adopted, Fa^ j field, which now has nearlv the same i 7 ! representation as Greenville, would j then ouly have about one-fourth the j representation which she now has as j compared with Greenville. The same | decrease would follow in a comparison i with other stronger counties. We j make the supposition that Greenville should present a candidate for Con- j gressioual honors and Fairfield one, it j will then be readily seen what advan-j tage would be had by Greenville, i County pride would come into play, ! and Fairfield would stand bu( a poor ; show. It is useless to say that the : Fairfield man could combine any vote : of Greenville, for there is a satisfac-' tion in voting for a man from your i own county which would be so strong1 that in ninety-nine cases out of a hundred the voter would vote for man from his own county. Spartanburg would have the same advantage, aud by a combination with Greenville could send the representation they desired on every occasion. We think it will be readily seen that our county would have only one-fourth the representation which she now has if the primary system should be adopted. The same state of affairs would exist in the other weak counties. Besides : it would be impracticable. If the majority plan be adopted it would necessitate several elections, and if the plurality plan be adopted it would not be the voice of the people, which Is the very object for which the friends of the system are contending. The same objections present them- < selves in the nomination of State officers. The upper counties from this large Democratic population could defeat the nominees from the lower and weaker counties, and the impracticability would be even greater than in the case of Congressional officers. We think it is a question which should be deliberately considered by our State Convention before a decision is rendered. At our County Convetion a resolution was adopted favoring the plan, but we presume our delegates are open to conviction. In commenting upon the resolution, one of the speakers said that the peo- j pie should nominate the officers and ] not a convention of a little more than three hundred voters. By the same i argument we hardly think that our 1 eight delegates would be in a position | i ? iK/\ flvfAAn Knn nm_ ' lu spcaK lui uiu di.\.Luun utiiiviAv**.t i ocratic voters of the county when they ! were elected by a convention of about one hundred voters.

Editors: The ballot-box is the only safeguard of our country Ant! it is a safeguard only when the people put into office those who arc worthy and well qualified to honur the office in the administration ofits duties. Every other consideration should be subordinate to this. The office should in every case seek the man, and not the man the office. The a flairs of our government, in all its departments, are in the hands of those we put into office; and the manner in which its aflairo are administered, and its duties performed, depend entirely on the character of its incumbents. It is an honor and a blessing to any country, State or eor.nty to put into office sound, safe men; men who can neither be bought nor sold; men who cannot be moved from the principles of justice and equity neither by smiles nor frowns; men of inflexible integrity who have the nerve to dare to do right. Such men arc to their constituents what the light house is to mariners tossed upon a dark and stormy sea. And such beacon lights seem to grow brighter as the storm becomes louder and the night darker. Such men are blessings to their age, and will receive the admiration of their countrymen. But when the elective frauchise is perverted for selfish purposes, or in any wav abused; when the voters sacrifice their better judgment for sinister ends, or through the intrigues of electioneering; or when candidates seek office for purely seltish motives, or employ undue or dishonorable means for securing their election, as seeking to buy votes with whiskey, &c; we may naturally expect a train ot evils to follow; and in that train of p.vils wfi mav exneet some or all of the following: *1. Men elected (?) are not the choice of the people. 2. Becoming familiar with a very dangerous precedent. 3. The office and the constituents dishonored by men occasionally too drunk to attend to its duties. 4.'The. embezzlement of funds occasionally for want of putting safe men in office. 5. Some of our best men, too high-toned to condeseud to buy votes with whiskey, left at home; while others are deterred from entering the field dreading to run against the whiskey interest. G. Whiskey is becoming such a power in many of our elections, that unless the people speak in no uncertain sound through the ballot-box, the day is not far distant when the whiskey interest will control our elections. 1 shall mention one other evil by no means the least, i. e., the power of example upon our youth. It must be a matter of no ordinary interest to every patriot t*iat the character of our government in the next generation will depend in a large measure upon the character we give to our young men in this. The examples of prominent men, especially when in positions of distinguished honor and trust, have a moulding influence upon our young men. For"when the examples of these are pernicious, our youth will become familiar with regarding them as not incompatible with the dignity of distinguished positions. And tlio higher the office the more dangerous the example. We readily condemn swearing, gambling, drunkenness, <fcc., in the poor and obscure, but when judges, governors, representatives and senators lie drunk we are inclined to think it less culpable in them. The truth is their example is far more pernicious to the interests of y jban similar bad exaui fc in tViA pOOl'J^^il .v." Xow, Messrs: vfcditors, I write in reference to no peniVing election, neither am 1 writing in the interest or airainst the interest of any nominee. Xo such motive. 1 re-write*a part of niv own ' Iqtoc T r\pmir>r1 a f'rtr VPJITS fltro. but was not then published. I think for myself, and no one is responsible for my thought but myself. I may say a little more next week directly in regard to the dictates of Patriotism and Christianity at the polls. B. F. Corley. A Shocking Accident. A shocking accident occurred near Columbia this morning, whereby one brother lost his life at the hands of another. 'Lwo young sons of Dr. B. W. Taylor had gone to the plantation of their uncle, Col. Thos. Taylor, to shoot doves. The elder, Ben, was fourteen years old, and the younger, Nat, about twelve. While attempting to shoot a bird Ben killed his brother. The sorrowful story was told to the coroner's jury this evening by Col. Taylor. He said that he had taken the two boys to his plantation to shoot and had left them together in a field. About twenty minutes afterwards a ploughman told him that Ben had shot Nat. He met Ben coming toward him to tell him that he had accidentally shot his brother. Proceeding to the spot where the shooting occurred, Col. Taylor was satisfied, from the position of the dead boy and of the two guns, and from Ben's statements, that the two had been very close together in the grass and weeds five feet high, that a dove flew np in front of Ben and circlcd to his left, and as he wheeled and fired at it, is'at Rose was struck in the head by the full load, his wound causing Instant death. There was 110 eye witnesses except Ben, and he was so unnerved by the accident that the jury decided not to examine him, and upon Col. Taylor's statement found a verdict of accidental killing at the hands of Benjamin Franklin Taylor. The news made a deep impression in Columbia and there is great sympathy for Dr. Taylor and his family.?News and Courier, July 27. ISacklen'H Arnica Salve.
