AruoPOs of the Senatorial debate on
the force bill we suggest that each
Democratic Senator procure a phonograph,
and after speaking his speech
into it, take it in the Senate chamber
^ and -yrind it off as many times as may
he needed to kill time. As the liepub

Senators all go into the cloak
rooms and sleep, they would never
know the difference, and Democratic

'J he voters of the county are called
upon to decide whether the county
shall subscribe $100,000 each to assist
in building two railroads through the
county. It is impossible to say just
where these lines of road will run.
The general direction of the Cape Fear
and Cincinnati is from Camden to
"VVinnaboro and on to Union. The
\V. \Y\ & C. will run in the general
direction from Rocky Mount to Alston.
It is impossible to tell whose plantation
will be touched. The question of
voting subscriptions to those roads is
a business matier, cold business. Will
the two roads benefit the county
enough to repa> the outlay? We do
not think anybody will question the
statement that many sections of the
county, now almost valueless, will,be
developed, and that there will be a
general rise in values. Kail roads certainly
develop a country, and one thiug
greatly nettled in this county is to
bring our surplus lands into demand.
The building of railroads will do more
to bring this about than an\thing else.

The Jlepufcjiicjui journals are demanding^
* igorousiv the passage of the
cleg^ton bill and Congress will now
^Mfkc up the bill for consideration.
' Great pres3ure will be brought upon
' Congress and unless a tew Republicans
can be found who can aud wiil
rise above their parly the bill will become
a law. The Press, of New York,
a rank Republican sheet, urges its
passage under the pretext of securing
honest election?. While it says that the
law should be binding and applicable
alike to the North aud South, vet the
; main argument of the Press is that it
will fee tire the rights of the colored

Northern politicians who are sa much

Governor Hnmptou.
i :h? conrse of his remarks on (he
| force bill in the U. S. Senate Senator
' Hampton said that his long public serI
vice would soon close forever; that he
J had never sought ollioe but hail always
! gladlv given his time and whatever
i - n
j ability he possessed to his country.
| In the long li>t of distinguished sons
ot South Carolina no oi.e nas eoninouted
more to the proud history of tha
State than Hampton, in fact, it may tie
said that his life has been spent in the
public service. As a vouii" man he
i
| represented his native canity in the
i S'ate Legislature, both in the House
j and Senate. When the State with!
drew from the Union Wade Hampton
! was umon" the first to volunteer in
I ?
| her defence and continued to battle for
j her rights until Lee surrendered,
i During the war he rendered most disj
tinguished service and rose to the tank
! of Lipu'enant-General. In the weary
I days of reconstruction Gen. Hampton's:
voice was raised in protest against
the great iniquities perpetrated upon
his people by the powers at Washingtotl.
T ! 1S7r. he from his
. ,*nem
y"rr>^_ , _ . Tsgo'tUKi that
S that revoluti(m~sfc-&* successful is due
| more to the conservative wisdom and
| courage of i;s leader than anything
j else. Hampton was the only man in
j the State in whom weie combined the
J elements which made success possible.
| In the National Senate he has served
! twelve vears which have been distin
guished by sound liberal statesmanship.
In retiring to the private walks of
life Senator Hampton shall carry with
him the consciousness of having been
true to hi* people and true to himself.
It is admitted by those who compassed
his defeat that he would have been reelected
had he followed the methods
of practical and personal politicia n.
But Hampton is a statesman not a
politician, and there are thousands of
1 voters in ouuui tarujum aiiAtuud 1^1
! ait opportunity to show the battlescarrcd
warrior and statesman that
they prefer statesmanship to partisan
politics. Their lore; and confidence
shall remain with him in his retirement
.
Why the Kail read Should be Ballt.
It is a conspicuous feature of the
progrets of civilization during this
centrry that 're are desirous of aiore
I direct communication and intercourse
with the outside world, and while we
people of Fairfield enjoy railroad facilities
north and south, the eastern
and western portions of our county
j have never been traversed uv a ranj
road. There are many of our people
ignorant of the nature of the lands and
the mode of living of our people in
these last named sections. It is almost
safe to say that only those who have
been candidates know fully oar county.
The railroad proposed and which vrc
call upon all of our citizens to support
by their rote* will bring our people
closer together, make us more liomogenious
and advertise what we are to
ourselves and to the stranger who
might wish to cast his lot among us.
Again we must act ilong side of the
march of the system of things which
prevail in our day and generation.
Kail roads seem to be the fashion of
our present civilization, and irheu
such is the case, to be out of the fash
iow is mort tkan to wear an unfashionable
hat #r coat, it is to be out of
the fashion of building up material
interests and of adopting the methods
of securing the * access which attends
this system of things.
We have fine lands in Fairfield, vt?
jvc a good climate, no ej)idemic*
visit us, but we have too'few people
and it ssetns that there is no better
way of bringing more people among
u? than by advertising what ear
county is. The mosi effective vray of
doing this is by having ?ur county in
? S*L . t - i.! K U
connection WIIU me uui^ue nuriu.
The da\ s of stages aud buggies and
wagon* are going br. The telegraph
and railroad mark our day, and if we
i would be prepared to catch the happy
i skirts of chance a;id breast the wave of
J circumstance in this active quick movi
ing age, we muet be ready with all the
I facilities which are now demanded.
Columbia has her new 'iailroads,
Chester has her new railroads, York
: has her railroads, Lancaster has not
been content to Jive without a railroad,
, Newberry has her new railroads, and
shall we people of Fairfield sit still
! surrounded by our go-ahead neighj
bors and "hug the delusive phantom
i of hope" until we are ... d commercially
hand and foot? T? use a
' 1 slang, but not the less truthful saying,
. I we must "get in the swim" or we will
be so tar behind in a few years that
we will not have hope or energy
.(enough to have a railroad, even il
(j some company should offer to build
^! one for us for nothing.
(j t'ndcr the pressure and exac-iona
Jot" our American civilization 10 sn
. | still means to get run ever and be

JLUC U4J1 IVl J i vv,
! voi', which has passed the Senate ami
i goes to tiia Iloufc, will work a radical
i change in our monetc-rv s-vstem, bv
I
j a!lo\vii'?f (very person who has silver
| tv> take it to the mint and demand and
i receive one coined dollar in gold or
! silver for (very unit weight of 412&
grains of silver nine-tenths fine. At

present isc jjoveruiijcm uuts ma auwii
! free coinage, but purchase? 4.500,000
! ounces oi silver every month and coins
i on i(s own account. The bunion price
J ot' silver i^ on an average not more
than 70 cenis in gold fcr 412-J grains,
so that > lie government makes about a
quarter of a dollar on every silver
j dollar it coins. The < fleet of free
! coinage will of course be to raise the
! price of silver bullion at least tempo!
rarilv, for when any one can sell 412-i
J grains of it to the government for a
' dollar he will not consent to take much
lees than this from anybody else. Cut
J the opponents of free coinage hold that
when this weight of silver is called a
dollar by the government, people will
buy silver from abroad at cheap rates
and present it to the mint, while those
who have gold dollars will simply lock
them tip, or ship them over to Europe
to buy silver with, in which case gold
j will cease to be uioney in circulation
j here; and a contraction of several
j hundred millions will result. This is
j precisely what the advocates of an increased
volume of money do not want.
Should the load of silver be too
great for the United States te ^.rry ar.
a par with goiu, the spectacle will be
presented of the United S'.ates becoming
a silver country, just as it was
ftom 1SG2 to 1878 a paper country;
and since European business men are
not compelled by law to take American
silver dollars, they will receive
them only at their bullion value in exchange
for gold, and exchanges between
the two countries will be fixed
at this ratio. Let us assume that by
means of tho lice coinage of silver
that me'el is increased in value, until
4124 grains will >>c worth 90 cents in
gold in England. A Xew York merchant
wishing to buy ?1,000 worth of
goods at English prices from London
must send over about $1,100 in silver,
or else receive lor i,uuu Oliver uoners
only as much as 900 ?old dollars would
purchanse.
60 if cotton brings 10 cents in New
York in U. S. currency it will sell for
only 9 cents with freight added in
Liverpool, and when English goods
are brought back in exchange the farmer
will discover that he has gotten
only as much as he got for 9 cents
before the passage of the free coinage
act.
A good deal is heard about the times
when cotton sold for 2o cents a pound,
in greenbacks It must be remembered
that greenbacks then were at a
heavy discount, and moreover that
com soul for a dollar and eighty cents
a bushel and crushed sugar for 25 cents
a pound, while all other things were
high in proportion. Juggle ring with
money will not make us rich; for what
we really exchange i& comniodies for
commodities, and money comes in
only to facilitate the exchange. An
inflated currency makes the payment
of debts more easy, but it makes borrowing
somewhat more difficulty; for
/To ?Af < !)!-p in lr>nd when
they do not know what kind of money
tliev will be paid back in.
We believe that prices have recently
been too low in proportion to the debts
incurred in past time and some expansion
will give relief and not be unjust
But in avoiding Sovlla we should steer
clear of the Charybdis fiat money and
debased coinage.
Silver has been abused and badly
treated. But the absolute free coinage
of silver is not unlike in principle the
absolute cnfranchismment of the negro
in 1SG5. lie got "his rights," but the
country came near being lost.
It would be wise to proceed with
expansion regularly and by some definite
plan such as is now in operatWn.
If thought proper, let the government
purchase more than 4,500,000 ounces
of silver a mouth..But .the gates
"'should not be thrown wide open all
at once.
A QUESTION OF NAMES.
(Greene Hie Nacs.
Our excellent contemporary, the
y*>nv nn/i Courier. <?ives us a valuable
history of the names of the counties of
this State and suggests that the next
new county formed should be named
''Calhoun." We confess to some surprise
at this untimely suggestion.
, Calhoun is out of date and "fashion.
He had idea6 regarding personal and
political conduct which lator day
statesmanship, endorsed by a popular
rote, repudiates. We have practically
turned our backs upon all he lored anil
represented. The school of the time
teaches that to obtain honor and place
our young men must abandon the
methods and purposes of Calhoun.
" This is the day of practical polities? of
swaps more or less even according to
the respective strength and acuteness
of the swapper?, of arrangements by

it i?, then fore, entirely out of place
I for us to do any honor to the name of
i Calhoun. Calhoun i> dead and can be

[ bend his sturdy back in humble jrenuj
flections before that movement ai.d its
j boss. .Let UalMoutrs memory ue mrim
I aside as Hampton living was thrust
! aside. A few of n* may continue to
11 remember the one and honor the other
. , because we cannot avoid it: but we
. | should do so humbly and quietly to
! avoid conflicts with fashionable docI
trine and offence to the high powers
' that be. We are old fogies. Our
! sentiments of gratitude for great ser;
