THE RACE IX THE SEVENTH CONGRESSIONAL
DISTRICT.
The Columbia State recently instituted
a comparison between Congressman
Win. Elliott am.} Col. .Jos. Barn
well, who wiil contest ih?t seventh
district wirh him. Wi'hont ^desiring
in the least to detract from the State's
commendations of k)\. E li*?tf, we are
constrained to express the opinion that
it has greatly underestimated the
abiiiiy and services of Col. Barnwell.
Tk* latter is in the prime of life aud
- "-"vigor, he his freely offered bis labor
and his snbstance to the state and his
nnhljff cervine vields not in n>efulness
r----- ?
to that of any other man in Sontb
Carolina.
Some years before reaching ma
turity, Joe Barnwell received his baptism
of fire at Tulifiny, where the
Citadel cadets gallantly repuls-d the
enemy; and the cratch he wore i'or
years after bore silent testimony to
his valor. Ia the Citadel, the South
Carolina University, and in'Gesmany
he received a broad literary culture
aad laid the foundation for a bfeli'y
successful legal career.
In political life he has been a potrnt
force. The fusion ot 187i in Charleston,
which was the dawn of political
legeneration,
owed mncb of its saccess
to 1 is nntiritig energy. Iu she
legis'ature, although powerless to prevent
rapacitv, be was able, wi b the
aiteis'attcd ot the biiiliznt William H.
McCaw of the News and Ouriei, so
to advertise the misdeedi of the Radicals^
to rouse South Carolina and
reconcile the tliinkirg people of the
United Stales to the revolution of 1876.
It is exceedingly difficult for the
younger generation to conceive of the
perolexitiea of that period or of the
risks undergone by any one w.o opposed
the Federal and State governments
Criticism was rebellion; and
any overt act, treason.
At that time Charleston county was
practically in the hands of C. C.
Bowcn and the sea-island negroes.
The city government itself while
nominally a reform organization was
fr' really Republican. Bowen and!
Mackey m;gbt wrangle about spoils
bat both concurred in maintaining
black Republican supremacy. When,
therefore, tbe up country beg\u to rise
in opposition to Radicalipm, it was an
exceedingly rit-kv matter tor the peoof
Charleston and tha coast counties,
ituated as they were, to perform any
_ overt act. It is not forgotte* how the
negro mob of Charleston threatened in
r , 1876 to kill any negro who should rentare
to speak for the Democracy, and
how, when the crisis arose a colored
policeman seemed to be aiding and
abetting cu?rage and violence, when
B rnwell's shot showed every white
man in Charleston what to do. After
that night Charleston was thoroughly
organized. Men were willing to tase
their fortunes and even ther lives in
their hands for the restoration of
honest government.
Later on, when the affairs of
Charleston Democracy bad fallen into
a tangle, when the national government
still held the doors of Sing-Sing
ana Albany penitentiary open for any
one who should lead the Democratic
party, peopie inside and outside of
Charleston looked to Joe Baruwell as
the man to take the lead iu th*t city.
He was not then comideie# too ra*-h
or nervous or co&vnlsive. His cool
courage and masterful pphit were just
/ what the cri>-is needed. He carried
his couuty safely for the Democracy
without harm to Rttyone and without
terror of the Federal Courts. No one
? " 1
claims that all the credit for this
achievement was due to bun. He ha<1
able and cuurageous support. But
the bravest and wisest suffer defeat
when leadership is lacking.
Joe Barnwell came to the State
senate under peculiar circumstance2.
There had been schism between parties
aud sections in the State, hiving been
4 strongly identi6?d with one factiot,
be was naturally regaraca vnn some
distrust and prejudice by the other
_ ? Bat iu the performance of his senatorial
dut??3, ha-has been so courteous
and watchful and fair as to command
? the respect and esteem of all his colleagues.
Everyone knows lhal Barnwell is a
^^ ? high man, a clean man, in personal
life and in politic*. No one can truthfully
charge that be ba<* ever uf-ed bie
f/? tcl-o ?r> nnfaip ar? OC7P
?v to ?
A lawyer said of him the other day,
%2j "It is not necessary to a*k Bart-well to
put in writing any agreement about a
-n case, his word is as good as his bond."
If i* not for auvone outside the
teve -tb district to interfere too much
in t'.iis contest. But it may be said
that Barnwell woold make one of the
strongest men ever sent to congress by
Sonth Carolina.
If, however, she 6ght is to be waged
f, over no more worthy issue than a
dry-1ock anil a few dredges, for
heaven's sakr, let George Washington
Murray go back.
It has been demonstrated repeatedly
in every state in tne Union and id
many foreign countries that Chamberlaic's
Co??b Remedy i? a certa-n preventative
and core for croup. It bat
become theReivers*! renei? for that
diteaie. M. V. Fisher, of Libe tv,

"I have u?ed Chamberlain's Cough

:onvincing proof that'the kidneys and bUdler
are out of order.
What to Do.
There is comfort in the knowledge jo
>ften expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's SwampRoot,
the great kidney remedy fulfills every
wish in curing rheumatism, pain in the
jack, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part
>f the urinary passage. It corrects Inability
o hold water and scalding pain in passing
t, or bad effects following use of liquor,
vine or beer, and overcomes .that unpleasant
necessity of being compelled to go *ften
isring the day, and to get up many times
luring the night. The mild and the extraordinary
effect of Swaiap-Root is soon
-ealized. It stands the highest fer its won-'
ierful cures of the most distressing cases,
f you need a medicine you should have the
jest. Sold by druggists in 50c. and$l. sizes.
