OUR STANDARD-BEAKERS
FOR PRESIDENT :
GROYER CLEVELAND,
OF NEW YORK.
FOR VICE-PRESIDENT :
- ? ALLEN G. THURMAK,
> OF OHIO.
Taming the Itaseals Out.
In accordance with the provisions of
the Civil Service law the President on
Mondar transmitted to Congress the
fonrth annual report ol the Civil Service
Commission. In this tnescige the
President comments upon the work of
the Commission covering the last year,
and while there are many obstacles in
the way which prevent a perfection of
the law, yet there is still good oause
for congratulation. When-President
Cleveland assumed control of the govmnnt
iiMrlv fnnr vpars <i?n hft was
pledged to a correction of the civil
service, and his record is sufficient
evidence that he has constantly aimed
at the fulfillment of this pledge. With
his party divided on this important
qu'estion and the great majority o?f
them employes of a different poiitica
faith, he had no easy task before him.
With a host of officc-scckers on the
|^^one hand and a civil service law on uie
9 AiflHHGBHHS&aSiUlt ^ut-v fis
actions on all "ocfikions have
Moved his faith to his par&and his
^^evotion to the law of the a^'d, although
against tlie sanction of many
jgpF of his party friends. He ha. fully
r appreciated the many difficulties Qi?er
of Republican employes have fre*|
politically decapitated he has the couis
age and will powor in the face of a'
great political campaign to auuouuue
that the executive brauches have been
and were still greatly annoyed and
irritated by the disloyalty to the service
and the insolence of the employes
who remain as Republican
relics in the responsible positions of
the government, and in a manner de
feat the very object which it was intended
that the law should reach. It
is evident from his manifesto that
there is still reason for ihe cry to turn
the rascals out, and with four more
years of weeding the officials of the
government will be filled by men
whose highest aim will be to make
our governmental institutions the
envv of our sister republics.
Xewgpaper Monopolies.
The tendency of the times is to
monopolize in even' lines of business,
and while the press, as a rule, has
alwa\s fought these monopolies, it
itself is not free from them. One
prominent instance is that of certain
New York papers, which formed a
"trust" to raise the prices of their
papers, and another is the granting of
a chartecJ^Sus State to certain parKKderetar.d
the bent of the corponJ^
nion, the reader should know that cer
P. machines have been invented for
?ng type and distributing it, and
febeen successfully used in offices
B^eral cities of the North. I5y the
Bs of ihe charter the company will
R| exclusive control of these mass
and others in this State, which
^course will prevent any competition.
Publishers in this State wiil be
exposed to this monopoly and cannot
use such machines unless the price of
the company is paid. The pricc may
. be reasonable or it mar not, according
to tne pleasure 01 me company, uui
corporations hare no souls or consciences
either, and everything this
company controls will most likely be
sold at a high rate. It is known as
the Typographic Company, and its
corporators are all connected with the
News and Courier.
WhoTvill Tt Be ?
The Convention of the Fourth Congressional
District met at Laurens
ao vesfwdftv fit. 19 jeZc.1 "Vfr
icfs ""the Convention wit!
ji&enty-two votes, Mr. Perry witl
eighteen, and General Bratton witl
eight. Fairfield holds the balance o
^ power, and between- the two oppo
nents of General Bratton can elcc
either she chooses. Eler delegate!
have not gone there, however, for th<
purpose of choosing between the two
but to nominate General Bratton, anc
will use all legitimate means to nam<
him as the choice of the Convention.
It is usual to have one or two dart
horses groomed for a dead-lock in sncl
meetings, but in this instance we heai
of 110 one being named for such ar
emergency, and it is almost certain
that the nominee will be one of the
three now before the Convention.
Who will be that man is the question
this Convention must decide. They
have an important duly to perform,

keen interest. When the successful
man has been named, let us all bury
the hatchet and with a unanimous
voice present him to the American
Congress as the representative of a
brave and patriotic people.
Cheap Judges.
In some sections of the estate the
question of reducing salaries is being
discussed by the candidates. Where
this is an issue the matter of reducing
the salaries of judges is promptly
brought forward, and its advocates
generally speak of the Georgia judiciary,
and labor to bring our system
to the same plane.
The Marion Star, in speaking of this
matter recently, said that in that great
State of little judges, there was one
circuit which was about to be without
a judge, from the simple fact that no
lawyer of any reputation would
accept it at the salary attached to the
position.
The same will be case in Sonth
Carolina should this false idea of economy
prevail. It is proper anil right
to reduce expenses to as small a figure
as possible, but we cannot expect to
?et good men for poor pay. In the
matiat' r,C lndtrns. tnlpnt ?r?51V iMJfne
high in the eyes of certain people, bat
we must have if, and we cannot get it
by reducing salaries.
Crops.
The published report of the condition
of (he crops in this is^ue shows mncn j
cause for encouragement. Cotton and
corn arc both doing finely, while other j
crops Jire reported i?: good condition. |

times this fall.
Mr. L. S. Digram has written a.
letter to the Marion papers giving
what In: calls proofs of the charges he
has recently made, lie does not product
a single bit of evidence to prove
thechaigo that $7U0 worth of furniture
was stolen from the executive
mansion. In reference to the judiciary
he cites a case in which he was
an interested party, and his cpiaionj

it. lie did not mention the case in
which a Supreme Court judge heard
aud decided a matter in his own favor,
lie criticises judgments of the Supreme
i'Court. Ile^ets up his opinion of the
construction of constitutional
and statutory law against that of men
of experience and learning in the profession.

can be found in the judiciary

of corruption in our officials.
Tiie Columbia llccord say?:
Fairfield Democrats have a commendable
way of settling differences and
preventing domestic dissensions.
Major T. W. Woodward and Mr. Thos.
S. Brice having both been announced
for the Senate, and both having many
jsrarm friends, who disliked to see a
'fontc t between them, it was resolved
ft leave the question to arbitration
v^iich should retire. Alter ipii aeiu)erttion
the arbiters decided that Mr.
Bi\e should withdraw, and he has
dorefeo very gracefully in a card.
Tfil^ecord points to this incident to
show Kq.y patriotic citizens may lay
aside peroual desires for the sake of
harmony, how counties may be
saved from f^?Ulial__fights which
leave their scars for yearsT"*-" ?Our
esteemed contemporary, the
Columbia llegister in its issue the day
after the Richland Convention, stated
that the result of the meeting was
prognosticated oy it several uays ueiore
the convention met. We always knew
that our friend was authority on statistics
and tabular statements, but we
must confess that we had no idea that
it had got matters down to such a fine
point that it coulu prognosticate the
result of a Congressional fight, when
in reality the county was only carried
for Mr, Perry by four votes in one of
the city wards. A change of these
four wards would have given the
ftnnntv to (Jen. Br&Lton.
The Democrats and Greenhackers
have united their forcc.s in Michigan
and it said that this coalition insures
""the election of Cleveland and Thurthat
State. The Democratic
and LHbo'r"ffcK?ics will try to unite in
Wisconsin, whicITv?W~iuake it at least
doubtful. Some enthusiastic Republicans
ho; cd to carry Virginia, but even
this small hope must be abandoned as
the Republican party is hopelessly
divided, Mahone refusing all overtures
of peace. Wherever we turn the
prospects of Democratic success look
most favorable.
One source of revenue to this government
is the tax on oleomargarine.
The Republican party advocates the
abolition of internal revenue taxes
and consequently the tax on oleomargarine
would be taken off. Farmers,

whole is the dairy husiness, arc de?

A great indignation mass meeting
2 was held in San Francisco on the 26tl

1 memorial to Congress, setting fort!
f the fact that through the perversion o:
the laws of the United States, thous

J the impeachment of two Fedora'

Republican friends should send theii
nominee out to work in the interest oi

The two Democratic factiS^s iu
New York city, Tammany amfcJhe
Coui'ly Democracy, arc discussingTbe
question whether they shall imite in

opinion of the shrewdest New York
politicians seems to be that local rivalry
is healthy and has a tendency to
bring out the full parly vote on the
Presidential contest.

TnE Mills bill, as passed, is not a
free trade measure by any means,
neither is it a blow to protection. The
reduction made by iL is only about
seven per cent. It is strange that the
Republican party should oppose it,
especially when its prime object is the
reduction of taxation.
The Senate has passed a joint resolution
providing for the ascertainment
of the amount due the State of South
Carolina for the rent of the Citadel
Academy. When this is done it is
probable that provisions will be made
for its payment.

Messrs. Editors: Ilavi.ijr traveled a
week I reached the city of SaltilJ, a
town of about .^,000 people, situated in
the ranges of the Sierra ,Madre, at an
elevation of .>,000 feet abuve the sea.

\Tni:,>, nl o.wl I ; II ^ Tllft
streets arc with liic and s>> very
narrow that thriV person-; cannot
walk abreast, an.i the roadway is
scarcely wide enough for two vehicles
to pa>s. The houses arc all built of
adobe, with lew exceptions?the governor's
residence, French -hotel, theatre,
American consul's, and the Roman
Catholic cathedral. The cathedral
contains an immense display of gold
and silver, and the interior finish is

The natives are Catholics, i
whose chief amusement ^frSunday is t
ball lighting?a barberous exhibition
attended by both sexes. An amphitheatre
is built by the citv in which to
SJiave these exhibitions. Another
anusement is the fandango, which is
danced to the music of a harp and
gtiiuir, and is considered cnclianting
to the Jovers of the terpsichorean art.
The men's costume? is a buck skin
suit decorated from head to foot in
grand styje. They wear tall sombre-1

dress like those of America, but seldom

The climate is changeable, and at a i
