The matter will be further investigated by the Court. The Chester Reporter says it is a mistake that Chester County elected delegates to both the August and September Conventions. The County Convention decided it had no authority to elect delegates to the September Convention. This leaves that county cflll flio vp9/?tinn whi(;h we hear is taking place. mm Majou McMastek lias received a letter from Superintendent Porter stating that the count of the people in Columbia will not he made again, but If omissions are cited an examination ?: will be made as to whether they are actual oinissioxs. This will necessitate the expense of a count by the city and she will probably not have it made. (iovEuxou Mauldix is announced as a candidate for Congress from this j District. Col. McKissick. of Union, i* also announced and there are rumors that a candidate will be named in' Laurens in the near future. i As far as we have seen neither Col. McKissick nor Gov. ilauldin has announced his jjosition on the subtreasury question which will probably l>e an issue in the race. The uueting at Orangeburg' passed off quietly, that is to say, about as orderly h< any of the campaign meetings in the State during the present canvas. This practically winds up the great oampaigu of education t: which was promised the people. r <, - Whether, a< an educator, it has been a success remains to be seen. It is true s-eeds. many of them, have been sown, but whether they will bear good fruit or bid fruit is a matter of great concern to t he people of the State. Don't forget to carry your "identifier" along should you visit Columbia >0011. A respectable gentleman from Chester was grabbed there the other ttev not because he was suspectcu or i being one of the gang oi thieves now i marauding the citv but because it * V was not ku?wn at the time who he was, and lie didn't feel disposed to gratify the idle curiosity of the police. Jt is dangerous, therefore, to bo a "stranger in the city" without an identifier along. The Ohio P!au.

Tli?' County Convention. AVe publish in to-day's issue of Tin: Xkws and IIkuald it full reptrt of the proceedings of the Couuty Convention of 2nd inst. The outcome is of course a matter of much regret to every honest and thoughtful Democrat, and it is difficult to forecast how far reaching may be the results of Saturdays work. The intelligent public is entitled to judge of the merits of the issues upon which the secession in the Convention as based. I T ? *1?A /Ntl At'f 1A11 JOOV 1 1U U1UC1 IIOI lilt l|m,ouuii squarely put to our readers we will reproduce so much of the proceedings us ! relate to the issue. I leretoforc we have had no contests among the clubs on the j subject of proper representation in the j Couuty Convention: we have had no | serious issues upon which our people; were divided and hence the necessity of such a tight never arose. In the present battle the lines were sharp}y drawn and the contending forces have been Aery nearly equal in strength, hence the matter of proper and strict apportionment of delegates among the several clnbs was obviously an in teresting question. The Constitution of the party provides that each 9lnb shall he entitled to one delegate for every twenty-five enrolled member?. In another section of the pa.ty law, it is provided in sub! stance that the ><veril clubs of the county shall operate under the control of the County Executive Committee. The clubs are to enroll, representation is based on enrollment, and rlio County Executive Committee, under the authority of the section of the County Constitution quoted, ciiled upon :lie clubs to send up their respective rolls five days before the meeting of the Convention, and appointed a committee to revise and correct the. s;j:ne and report to the Convention the result of itwork. Thiu was done by a sub committee composed of representatives of both factions. The work of the committee was the work of each and every member, and as the report itself shows was con- i curred. in by all the yrentlemen com prising th*t body. The comtnltice was in session all clay Friday, sat with open doors, received and heard ail testimony offered aiul thereupon made up its leport, which was the! bone of so much contention on Satar-1 day. As we understand it, the Tillman forces wanted to ignore the action of the committee and to have iirst of all acommiitee on credentials appointed. The opposition took the ground that it! was premature to appoint such a com-; mittee until there had been an enroll-! meat of the clubs and their delegates! on the basis of the action of ihe Exe-! cutive Committee. That from this re- j port aloup conld the Covention base a i temporal y organization. The ami- j Tilltnanites desired an enrollment of! the Irgallv existing clnbs and that tne j 5m!ing of the Executive Committee j should only be the law of the Conven-: tiou in its temporary organization. They did not oppose the appointment! of a committee ou credentials, but took j ground that there must first be a body \vli!i incuiuers iu uiuvv;, uiiu iucthjuci& to vote, and members to bo appointed on >.ich committee. Chairman GailIan 1 lu-.ia that the findings of the Executive Committee wereprima fade correct and must be the basis of tempo-' rarv organization. The ruling when | stripped of all parliamentary language simply meant that the Convention mus; li.>t be organized bv ami made i up of delegates whose >.eat? v.'erc in uo j w!m* contested; that if contests were j to be heard and Ueiermii>ed there; mu>t be first of all some body coi.sti- ! tutcd and organized to heat* thern; ; that no one should sit. in judgment! upon i?is own cm-. Not only then was the report of the : Executi\e Committee, coming as it; did with the full sanction of the paity constitution, entitled to respect, and in a measure the obedience of the Convention, but it afforded the only evi denco wherebv the Convention could ! determine prima fade the number ot j delegates each clab was entitled tw.

To secure for them this fxa!tc<! boon, I rcacw the suggestion made before. It is admitted that on:1 property is j assessed below its legitimate value. [ Compared with our .-ister. Georgia, we make an exceedingly bad showing, i Taxable property in South Carolina i about ?145,000,000, and in Georgia about 380,000,000 dollars. The difference cannot poss?blv be so great under I a true valuation. Our next legislature should change the mode of assessment entirely by the enactment of a law "lading the lauds of the State making three or four grades and placing <; fixed value upon each grade, the lovve>r not h.ss i!i;i!i i or 5 dollars lo 10 or 12 the lii-:hc>t. This would place our property in a more favorable light. be"fore the world, as it would lessen the number of milis to the dollar, would not increase the amount <?f taxes for support of State and county, which is always a fixed amount; but would .Materially increase the school lax. thus enabling us to run our schools from six to ten mouths and also to scenic better teachers.

He !" 1 hen-tore ruled that it was Ctsential to r !:ave a basis of temporary orgraniza- s lion, and that the report of the Exncn- e live Committee should be such basis; ihat af'cr the temporary organization I was effected all questions ot' contests t or disputes could be decided by the i Convention. t In deciding: upon the question the r rhair referred to the constitution of the iM?rty, Sta^e and county, w'*ich in l ?-is judgment fully justified the action \ of'tlie Jtxeentivc vjomnnuee auci ns u authority upon this Convention in ] cffrctingf the preliminary organization. ( Jno. W. Lyles asked the chair to c \vliorn could au appeal from hi* ruling c he made, and was informed that such 1 appeal could he made to the temporary 1 organization. Messrs. Rutland. R. Y. Lemmon i and J. W. Lyles contended that, the proper mode should he by first enroll- ( ung me delegates prescuu. A number of speeches were made -in both sides and discussion wa< kept within ihe limits of decorum anil parliamentary practice until Mr. .1. W. Lvlcs sprang to his feet and said that 'here was r.o man in the State that Auuld yield to the will or the people >ooner than he, but that he did not ::n?end 1o be throttl&dby the will r.f one man, or of the ring that lived vrilhin in; shades of these walls. After this there was a generel siir among she Tillman faction. They aU sprang to their feet with the avowed purpose of leaving the Convention. S. !?. Kutland made a speech of some ( in which lie counciled modera- 1 fiion in 1 he interest of harmony and ( !?niity, but he used these words: The 1 //?.<? not yd conic for vs to withdraw: After this attempt at conciliation < Shore was a jrreat deal of talk ihat bad ' nothing ?(? <lo with the question. A i ^reat, deal more unnecessary pvroiech- ; ilies wcrR indulged in. 1 S. It. Rutland-got up and said that it < was understood that the Glythewood 1 delegation would be contested. What . Thi'.had to do with the motion to lay 1 on ihu table nobody knows. ; Mr. J. G. Moblev called the gentlemen to order and he took hi* scat. 1 W. J. Johnson, of Ridge way, ] made some statements about the < ! Ridge way contest which were inaudi- I ..ihlft .o 'lit*, i-enortcr. . i Some Tillmanite moved to lay the 1 report on the table. Tne point was 1 made that tlie chair could not entertain =i motion at this tt3ge of the meeting as i there was no way of ascertaining who j was <>r was not entitled to vote. The ' chair ji*>"n!M?'d the point and said that : the preliminary organization is.list be i based or. the report of the committee. T. W. Traylor moved that the con- < vention take ji recess for thirty min- i utes. ( Again the point was made'hat no motion could be considered by the 1 chair. Things hai been growing' ] warmer and warmer lor souie time, i but now I hey had reached such :i de- 1 :grce of excitement and confusion that 1 any attempt to get an accurate account i of what transmited was impossible and i utterly futile. J. W. Lyies, who seemed to be haunted all the time with the horror < that somebody else would get ahead of ; him and lead* the sececiors from the ' .liiii tins rnr. off forever iiis chance of being enrolled among J he ?rr?sstl men of the lutare, .leaped !0 his feet in a wild and excited manner, rushed for ihe door, exclaiming as he .vent, "Good bye! Good : bye!" The contusion at this point was : beyond discription. The straightouts j cheered vociferously and those who | were retiring did the same. Cries of "hurrah lbr IJratton! TJiree chairs 1 for lirattonwere aroused by like cheers for Tillman. For some time 1 the utmost confusion prevailed The ] 'nilmaniie.s withdrew in a body; but ibey were not :ill hUiislicd tiiat. this ' movement was proper or even advis- ' able, Members were heard to regret i tha' it hud been resorted to; so .strong ; 'Was this i'eeling ihat one time it was thought That, they would return to the Democratic fukl.

That we renew our pledges of idelity to the ever-living principles of he Democratic partv. xxkil w u i;ciuni;i v ucuiuiv; uui 'aitli in the administration of the State fovernment by the Democracy .since 87ti as thoroughly honest, capable, conomical and upright and deserving if the commendation of the party and he people. That Ave place on record our ndignant protest against the unprooked attacks upon the party and the tote as calculated to destroy the ightcous supremacy of the -white man, ubversire of the best interests of the ommonwealth. 4. That John Bratton, in 1 lis person, ife and convictions, is the example of rue Democracy, and whether in deeat or in victorv lie will always be he champion of the more cherished ights of the masses. , ;>. "We commend our honored felow-citizcn to the party ;us one who vould honorably and fearlessly and ibly discharge the duties of the Chief Executive of the State, and as the Governor of all classes, he would txecute the law, uphold the dignity )f the State and preserve her credit, ler prestige and her good name at lome and abroad. T. Iv. Elliott introduced the followng resolutions, which were adopted: Whereas, at the call of the Couutv Chairman and Executive Committee >f the Democratic party of Fairfield bounty, delegates from tlie various :lubs assembled in the Court House on Saturday August 2, 1890, forming the Jounty Convention; and whereas, in tccordance with the constitution of lie party, State and County, a report from the Executive Committee on the mrollment and representation to arhich each club is entitled was pre rented as the basis of temporary jrganization: and whereas the County Chairman ruled that this report was constitutionally the only proper niehod of determining the temporary organization; and whereas a number >f delegates to the Convention refused :o be bound by this ruling of the bounty Chairman and withdrew from lie Convention. lie it resolved by the Democatic Convention of the County of Fairlield, fhat the action of the County Chairman is hereby unanimously sustained md confirmed, and that v.-e the members of this Convention do hereby leclare our intention now and always to adhere to the constitution of the Democratic party as that law in accord ivith which the wishes of the people ire to be regulated and ascertained. Jitsolccdy That we deplore the ae tion of the "withdrawing delegates, as iiasty, inconsiderate and tending to disrupt the parly, and we trust that they will realize that the unity of the party is ?-t more importance than mere temporary success and return to their allegiance. Major Woodward, in .-peaking to Lljese resolutions, indicated a most ardent de?;re that a!l things that could be done consistent to our position should be done io indacc the withdrawing members to return. Maj "Woodward made amotion to the fft'ect that a committee be appointed by the Convention to confer with the delegates who had withdrawn with a riew ,of coming to an understanding by which they could be induced to return to the Convention. This motion caused considerable discussion: but the sentiment of the Convention was so strongly opposed to anything that looked like a compromise that the muuuii iliiv.hu. >v xi. The following resolution was passed: Jlesohed, That the JcfFersou Monticello Club and the Hampton Club of Longtown be admitted as regular Democratic Clubs, but not to participate in this Convention.
