FOR PRESIDENT: GROyEP. CLEVELAND, | OF XEW TORK. | ? FOR VICE-PRESIDENT : ALLEN G. THU3MAN, OF OHIO. The Political Standard-Bearers. The Democratic and Republican par- j ties have boih now named their standard-bearers, and it may be truh said' that the great national contest lias opened. It may be of interest to ?? know~something of the men who are to lead the oppoini^Jitrces^and the platforms opou which they stand soliciting the suffrages of an intelligent and enlightened nation. Grovcr Cleveland hails from the great State of New York, ana by his words and. actions for the last four years as the chief executive officer of the United States ha9 approved himself to the people as no other Presii 1 nocf nonrlor nf n ut:u I UU9 UUJJC iu SUE puoi vj century. His record is open for the inspection of the world, and it challenges every man of whatever political faith to a careful and studious scrutiny. Upon that record alone he could go before the country confident of success. His associate, Allen G. Thurman, the "old Roman," of Ohio, has a record of which any man should be. proud. He, too, is no stranger to the people, having served in a nnm? ber of e.vpacities of honor and trust, ^t?nd in honoring him the cojnntry has added new honor to the official positions which he filled. Here we might rest contented, so far as the Democratic standard-bearers are concerned; but another and perhaps a stronger reason why the people of the country should support them is found in the broad and statesmanlike document adopted by the St. .Louis Convention as the party platform. There -is no mistaking the honest, straightforward principles announced in it, and which mast appeal to every man of reason. It assumes the aggressive and demands a reform of the tariff and a ceasing of the present robbery whereby millions are annually drawn from the people to be added to the already overflowing national treasury. This, briefly stated^ is how and why the Democratic party will win. Our friends, the enemy, have chosen as their leader the Hon. Benjamin Harrison, of Indiana, a man of ehar acter and brains, but an aristocratic Kepablican, who has already gained . the title of the "kid glove" man. Besides, he is a great friend of the Chinee, and by his vote, recorded in the proceedings of the United States Senthem with all the rights of natural born citizens. His associate, the Hon. Levi P. Morton, of New York, has gained oniy a reputation for his wealth and the magnificent dinners given abroad, particularly while representing thi3 government in Paris. He is the leading member of the well known-.Wall street banking firm of Morton, Bliss & Co. He was doubtless' nominated for the money he would contribute to the Republican campaign fund, as he did in sending a baie of new crisp $2.00 bills to* carry In? diana for the G. O. P. in the contest of 1880. The platform upon which these notable representatives stand,' while unmistakable, is confessedly weak. They want protection wherebv the rich grow richer and the poor poorer, and like wolves in sheep's clothing seek to blind the laboring class: and by their unfledged sophistry dektde them into supporting sucn men ana sncn a doctrine. They want free whiskey instead of free blankets, free tobacco instead of free clothing. "What a contrast! We are impressed 5rilh the old adage, that comparisons are odious. The Republicans say it makes no difference who the men are or what the platform, they must win, and in thfeir last h-jpe say they must win at any sacrifice. On- the other band, in the men named by the Democratic party all can rely with cohfidence and assurance, and the platform must command the respect and support of all men who favor the onward progress of our already great and glorious uauon. Tb? Church and Polities. An anonymous communication, which appeared in a recent issue of the esteemed contemporary the Columbia Register, in regard to the religions faith of our State rulers,, we think both untimely improper. In it the writer assays the Episcopal church on account of its fortune in securing a number of prominent positions for its members in our State government. "We regret very much to see an exhibition of such feelizig; even from any one of our worthy citizens, for we believe'that sucli a thing as the reli ?c <1,/, glUUS UCiiVJL Ui LUV XVI tUU various State offices was never dreamed of when the nominations were made. The gentlemen who have been promoted to these important places of honor and trust have not been elevated on account of their religious belief, but on account of their services to the -- Democratic party and their prominence in the politics of the State. Ic will be an unfortunate day for South Carolina when its officers nominated on account of their religions belief, for it will then in a manner unite the church with politics, an unholy alliance. Let candidates stand upon their merits, no matter from what religious faith they hail. The allegation of tbis correspondent that the Episcopal church has >> % \ been favored by conventions composed j of the representative men from all the i conuties of the State is simply a crea-; tion of his own futile imagination and finds existence only in the small intellectual world of ihe anthor. Let candidates stand npon their record, whether they be Episcopalians, Methodirts, Baptists, Presbyterians or representatives of any other denomination. Caught Again. The Kansas zebra has again been | using his pen on political matters and j has again been exposed. He wrote to j J?-? it.? i a friend 111 unicago uunug iu? ivcjutulican circus, and the letter in some way fell into the hands of the Chicago Xews. It is as follows: Vice-President's Chamber, ) Washington, June 16. ? Yours of 13th at hand. It does not | make much dfference who is nominated, in my judgment. The candidates will cut but a small figure in the fight. We can elect anybody, or we shall fail. The least conspicuous, and therefore the least complicated, man will be the best; - somebody like Hayes, in 1876. Among all the men there is not one "leader"; no one whose personal or historical relation to the people would make a difference of 1,000 votes in the canvass. Shermau, Allison, Harrison, each have records that would be awkward on the tariff, the currency, the Chinese question ?fcc. Depew's connection with railroads and corporations would be a heavy load, especially in the agricultural States. We might as well nominate Gould or Vanderbilt at once. My impression is that Alger or Gresham' come nearer filling the bill than any of the others, with some fellow like Phelps, of New Jersey, who could reach the conservative forces of { the East and get contributions from I the manufacturers and Wail street. i T>..i -a.- /va mtiAh f hfin t | DUl- \ UU Ks<Xll JUUf^V tuuvit UVM.V* ?4.MM ? j what is best, after consulting with the ! delegates. I have the use of the wires daring the Convention, by the courtesy of the company, and you can, therefore, telegraph me fully at all times if anytbiogof interest transpires. Truly yours, JOHN J. ] KG ALLS. When a New York World reporter asked him about the letter he replied that it was a deplorable thing to have such rascals in The newspaper profes!s:on; that the letter was stolen and ! that such action embarrassed all honorable men in it. We arc rather of j the opinion that it embarrassed the i political demagogue from Kansas. He j should be more .careful in the future. Formally Xotifled. On Tuesday the committee appointed by the recent Democratic Conven| tion to formally notify President ; Cleveland of his unanimous nomina| tion for re-election by that Conven! tion, performed that pleasant duty at j the executive mansion. After the | formal notification ln\d been read and | the secretary had handdd him a hand| somely engrossed copy ot the broad and pointed platform upon which he was nominated, he stepped to the fWvnf *? ?>r? i? ft orracnful manner ac-' j cepted the sacred tr.nst reposed in him." He said in conclusion: I shall not dwell upon the acts and : the policy of the administration now drawing to its close. Its record is I open to every citizen of the land. And I; yet I will not be denied the privilege exercise of the Junctions ot tL^high trust confided to me, I have yielded obedience only to the constitution and the solemn obligations of mv oath'.of office. I have done those things which in the light of the understanding God has given me, seemed most conducive to the welfare of my countrymen and the promotion of good government. I would not if I could, for myself, nor for you, avoid a single conscquence of a fair interpretation of iriy course. His lant ua^e is iisaiilv and Krates | manlike, and in him the people, the great tribunal which will decide the coming contest, will Sud a man worthy of the trust, and one who will perform the high duties'of the office without fear or favor. Wliere 2>oes He Stand A'ow ? In 1882, when representing Indiana in the United States Senate, would-be President Harrison voted against the restriction of Chinese immigration, and in defending his position among his associates he said that the Chinese ought to be enfranchised, and if the Republican party would do this it would give them the Chinese vote. Then, by adopting unrestricted immigration from China the party could populate America with Chinese votes to suit any emergency, so long as they ! were true to the party that granted ) them the right of suffrage. The Chi! nese question was not as well known j then as it is now, and doubtless he j would now exchange the title of "courageous man" which his then action gained him for a blank page in the history of his actions. It will be ! an important question on the Pacific j slope, and thay will want to know how he stands now before the intelligent people will give him their support. The Gubernntoiial Contest. The nomination for Governor, which has heretofore been conceded to Gov. Richardson, begins to be doubtful. The Union Times, in a strong editorial, comes out squarely for Sheppard for Governor. A correspondent of the Register also nominates the Hon. Giles J. Patterson, of Chester. All of these gentlemen are of the best quality, and either would make a most excellent Executive. But we believe that where one man has done -his full duty that there is 110 necessity for a a change. Gov. Richardson, during his term of office, has met the expccta uou oi oi uis menus anu cue ueiuocratic party. This is sufficient. With this record we see no reason for a change in the office. How 3fen Die. If we know all the methods of approach adopted by an enemy we are the better enabled to ward ofi the danger and postpone the moment when surrender becomes inevitable. 1 In many instances the inherent strength ' of the body suffices to enable it to op pose the tendency toward death. Many ; however have lost the?e forces to such an extent that there is little ur no help. 1 [n other cases a little aid to the weak- ; ened Lnngs will make all the differ- < ence between sudden death and many ? years of useful life. Upon the first symptoms of a Cough, Cold or any s trouble of the Throat or Lungs, give ] that old and well-known remedy? j Boschee's German Syrup, a careful r trial. It will prove what thousands 3 say of it to be, the "benefactor of any home." * TriK Indian council just held at Fort Gibson, in the Indian Territory, took important action in seeking to unite all the so-called civilized tribes. There is little doubt that if they should take the proper steps for this purpose they could before long obtain,' should they desire it, the formation of a territory substantially under the same kind of government as Dakota and Montana, with men of their own race in nearly ! all offices. Hitherto, however, the j policy of the five civilized tribes and their allies has been to keep up the old tribal relations aud the holding of laud in common. Under this system the powerful and rich in a tribe <-an grow richer and more influential; and everything tending toward division of; Jands by severalty ownership and j the merging of Indian tribal rela tions into American citizenship has been discouraged. Now the}' may begin to see that, even although especially excepted from the operation of the severalty law, they cannot hope much longer to stand in a merely^iegative and obstructive attitude toward the general projects which look toward Indian advancement by breaking down tribal barriers. Already plans are I rife in Congress to organize a territory which shall include both them and whites. The Fort Gibson council seems to have realized at least the necessity for some combined action among the allied tribes of the fndian Territory. The New York Times (Ind. Itep.) and one of the leading New York dailies wisely supported Cleveland in the last campaigny and in a recent leading editorial says that it has considered the candidates and the piatj forms, and prefers the Democratic ' nominees and their platform and will | use its utmost efforts to make them I"successful. It concludes as follows: For the working out of the reforms ! which the Times believes to be the chief issues of our politics the Democratic part}*, with its present candidates, is the "better insfrument," to use Mr. Tilden's expression. Its candidates are incomparably superior to those of the Republicans, and the announcement of purposes with which it enters the contest is more satisfactory, and in respect to the dominant issue is firmly right when the other hopelessly wrong. As regards civil service reform, thongh we have had occasion to criticise the present administration for seme of its errors and failures, we have greater confidence in Mr. Cleveland's sincerity and fidelity than in the written professions of a pSrty whose leaders are unable to speak of the reform without a sneer. The Times will give Cleveland and Thurman its hearty support, 'and will do what lies in its power, and it is not. commonly an inactive newspaper in a Presidenj tial coutest, to make their majority I such that there will be no doubt about | it the morning after election. That has the right ring about it, and j doubtless other journa's will follow i the wise example. J , -o a. j We publish reports from eighteen J correspondents ou the condition of the i crops. Bottom corn seems to be a failure and npland corn not as good as last year- -Wfecat is a failure, but I the~oats crop is asTffficty per r~"S3mir~sections. Cotton is la'tc, but has been rapidly improving during the pa?t two woeks. A worm is reported from liidgeway as injuring corn. Can any of onr readers tell anything about it, and it it can be gotten rid of? We are glad to note that the Longtown farmers arc making an effort to raise their own meat. Full sinoke-hon9es and corn-cribs will send the obnoxious lien law into "innocuous desuetude." The patches of the prize?club of Upper Oakland arc reported "fine," and it is thought that the prize acre in most instances will produce more thau a good many other ! acres on the farm. Tiie rumor in regard to cruelty to convicts on the Blackvillc, Alston & Newberry Railroad has just been investigated by the penitentiary authorities and found to be greatly exaggerated. Instead of two convicts being beaten to death, it appears that only one was slightly chastised, and at the time it was done the party administering was not aware that he was the leafet unwell. The attending physician certifies that there was no cruel treatment, and the convicts themselves endorse his statement. The authorities are alive to the matter of cruel treatment and are determined that contractors shall treat convicts as they should be. The German Reichstag was formally opened on the 25th ult. with ?reat pomp and ceremony, such, it is said, rs has rint hppn sfifm in half a centnrv. The new Emperor was to make an address and it drew a large conconrse of citizens., In bis address Jie announced that he would strive to imitate the peaceful rule of his illustrious grandfather. The Emperor may even surprise bis enemies as well as ;s friends and give fo Germany a government which will compare favorably with those of his illustrious predecessors. Mr. Kelley, one of the leading protectionists of Congress, when the Democrats tried to fix a time for a vote ou the Mills bill, proposed to the Democrats to let the bill stand over until afcer the election, promising if the Democrats were victorious in their platform not to oppose it then, and asking a similar concession from the Democrats. The offer was promptly refused. . . Worth Knowing. ilr. W. n.

A large fire in Fort Mills on Tues- ; day morning destroyed over eighteen J thousand dollars worth of property, while there was only eight hundred dollars of insurance. The recent fires in different towns o' the State are j able commentators on the value of in-1 surance. It is not only a protection | to property, but a protection to one's credit abroad. ? -o Wk are seldom called upon to give - - ? -? - rr? i. advice, bat wc arc go;n? iu uuer l?u men of this country a little just for a change.

The prospects for crops arc better i at this time, as we h.sve been visited by raiii which will possibly increase the yield.
