FOR STATE TREASURER, EDWIN F.
GARY.
The True Republicans have made
for State Treasurer a selection no less
happy than that made in their choice
of a candidate for Governor. So far
as the fiuancial condition of the State
is concerned, no reform is possible unless
the treasurer is both honest and j
aUe. Either a bad or a weak and in- J
cSlpetent man in that office would be
an insuperable bar to any improvement,
and would absolutely neutralize
the best efforts of all the other members
of the .^tate administration, to
remedy the evil which press so heavily
upon all classes of society. Were it
possible on other grounds to conceive
that the Moses-Paterson Ring meant
anything by their loud and late promises
of amendment, the nomination of
Mr. Cardozo for Treasurer would fur- j
i.isbf ample proof of their insincerity; J
for if they had hunted the State over
for a treasurer to suit the purposes of
a ring intending the systematic plun
der of the coffers of the State, tho.y
could not have found a man more to
their purpose. Not that Mr. Cardozo
has a settled purpose to do wrong. On
the contrary, he is of too feeble moral
fibre to have any fixed inteut either for
good or evil. He lloals on the currents
oof nhont the State House, like a
buuv mv v ^ , ?
helpless jelly fish all stomach and teuta
cles, instinctively drawing into his maw
such trities as may happen to ll>at his
way, but is as incapable of activity,
toeither catch or to avoid them. Kuch
training as he has had has been that
proverbially least fitted to make him
capable of managing money matters?
for he was educated for, and took upon
himself, the calling of a preacher.
Having had nothing to do officially j
with the State finances during the last
four years, except to perform the merely
clerical duty of scaling the bonds
and keeping a record of his acts, he
lias been uDable to perform that simple |
duty, without glaring evidence appear- .
ing of his incapacity. This he has
spread before the people in his late war j
of letters with the Governor, in which I
his Excellency riddled him to some
purpose.
To him the true Republicans have
oppouda candidateposscssing conspic- j
uously the characteristics which will
make him a most excellent treasurer, i
and will contrast most strongly wkii
Mr. Cardozo*s defects. Mr. Gary is a
man of great intellectual vigor and no
less strudy moral stamina. Shrewd,
acute and of sound judgment, he adheres
to a purpose or to his convictions
of duty with a persistency, which those '
who have an interest in changing his i
course sometimes call obstinacy, j :
He has not been long connected with
the State government as Auditor, but . ?
he has earned during that short time
the thanks of every honest man and j i
every tax payer in the State?by pre- . :
venting the consummation of the Blue '
%
Itidge swindle, and by resisting the j pressure
brought to bear upon him to
induce him to levy a tax for the pay- j <
ment of the interest on the bonded 1
debt. All the circumstances attending j 1
i ?
these matters arc not known to the
public, and Mr. Gary had the moral 1
courage to face the responsibility, aud I
to act as he knew was for the interest 1
and honor of the State, in spite of 1
threats, temptations aud arguments of '
the sort that the King knows how to
use. He did this knowing that he ;
risked being misunderstood by the pub- 1
lie, but trusting to time to vindicate <
the propriety of his action. Were there ; i
no other evidence of his integrity, it 1
might he found iu the fact that not one
of the opposition orators who deal so
profusely in charges of corruption and
dishonesty, has uttered a syllable to Mr.
Gary's discredit.
Tfis business training has given him
a peeuliar fitness for managing the
treasury, and he is in all respects the
man we need in that place. We have
no doubt of his election and wc congratulate
ourselves, and our fellowcitizens
in advance, on the project of
an honest and capable administration
of so important an office.

If the "striking scrubbers" had
cleaned out the King! Put no! That
were too big a job. As fruitless is the
hope as was Lady Macbeth's. "Out,

not out. "What, will these hands

A Charge of the Broom Brigade
An incident occurred at the State
house, several days since, which seems
to have remained unnoticed longer
than it should. It appears that owing
to the contraction of the money mar|
ket. the washerwomen at the Lunatic
Asylum, about a dozen in number,
have not been paid for several months.
They therefore resolved to raid the
[ Srate ollicers, and on Wednesday called
in a body at the State treasury,
where they made known their wants.
Their combined statements were too
much for the presiding genius of that
institution, and they finding the same,
so far as money was concerned, in as
dilapidated a condition as their index
fingers were after a hard day's scrubbing,
left and wended their way to the
Executive rooms. Ilere they were re
ceived with the characteristic urbanity
of his Excellency, who made them a
neat little speech, condoling their misfortunes,
which was so effective that
the women leturned immediately to
tlie As}lutn, to await the collection of
taxes.? (.olumbia Union.
That must have been a fearful day
for Scott and Parker. Think of the
dusky scrubbers, each with a stubby
broom, their flag a ragged floor-cloth,
their cry, "Pay or be scoured."
Or is the story truly told by the
Union, organ of the King. Is it not
more probable that having heard Cardozo's
confession, these matrons, filled
with patr.otic ire, determined to wash
clean the conspirators within the precincts
of the Statehouse. Did not the
guilty cower in their granite rooms?
They could find no treasurer. "Fie, my
lord, a soldier, and afear'd?" Tappan
and Jack Little politely say, "We're
not in funds." One obese Amazon
baiters on the iron doors for Parker.
But ail in vain. Then, "To the Governor,"
is the. crj\ litre, fancy Harry
Noah ushering in the glowering, panting
dames; the Governor's urbane
speech; his promise of money in the
fall; the indignant rejection of such a
compromise. Suddenly a "happy

A statement made in the IU:rur.LiCAN
two wtek> ago to the effect that
Judge Afelt??n had decided the lllue
Ridge suit against the city of Charleston
and in favor of the present Iiing
which controls the e/fects of the road, is
proved to be untrue. The article was
written in Columbia, where the writer
was told, by one interested to a very
large amount in the suit, that it had
been decided. A\7c have written to the
gentleman asking for an explanation,
which when received will be placed
before our readers. AVe have no intention
of doing any man injustice in
this campaign.
The political sins of Moses, Melton,
Cardozo, idomne genus, are sufficient tc
suj>piy ammunition wimoui irouu.ma
any one to invent. We made the
statement believing it to be tru<>, our
informant having so large an interest
as to make his statement almost conclusive
evidence. We heard it spoker
of afterwards several times as a fact.
TOMLINSON'S REPLY TO MELTON.
An Emphatic Denial.
Charleston. S. C., September 8.
To the Editor of liie Nacs:
Gentlemen?On returning to th<
city to-day, my attention is called t(
your editorials of Friday and of yester
day, in which you reter to charges
made by F. L. Cardozo and S. W
Melton against me with reference t<
my alleged connection with the passagi
of the phosphate bill; and, looking up
on at least one of these gentlemen a.?
having some character for veracity
left, you may properly demand that J
shall meet the charges. I bad already
been informed, in a private letter fron
Mr. Corbin. of the statements made by
Mr. Cardozo and Mr. Melton, at York
ville, and was awaiting an opportunity
to notice them publicly. By youi
kindly interference, I have thatoppor
tunity. I have not yet read Mr. Mel
ton's speech delivered in Charleston
but understand from others that tli<
statement made in that speech is sub
stantially the same as that made at
York ville.
Mr. Cardozo is represented as saying
at Yorkville, "Mr. Tomlinson is nc
better than Moses, so far as corruptior
goes, for if Moses did issue fraudulent
pay certificates, Mr. Tomlinson tolc
me himself that he helped to buy uj
the Senate to pass the phosphate bil
over the Governor's veto. lie told m<
this at the time, and I have no doubt
that he told me the truth."
I can only say that this statement is
a bold, unblushing and unqualifiec
falsehood.
Will you tell me how I am to prov<
that Mr. Cardozo tells an untrutl
when he makes this statement? H<
might with as much propriety say thai
I had tried to bribe him to rnurdei
somebody; one assertion would be just
as reasonable and as true as the other
But if he repeats these assertions unti
the crack of doom. I do not see how 1
am to prove their untiuth. I ctn only
place my assertions and charaetei
against his, and let the public decid(
for themselves.
I may say, however, that in his
speech at Yorkville, previvous to making
the above statement, Mr. Cardoz<
said of me that "I had been his frieuc
for some years, and was an honest ant
upright man." Mr. C. may think thai
uprightness of character is consistent
with a weakness for bribing Senators
I do not.
Mr. Melton is reported as saying al
Yorkville that he had been told (aud
would give bis authority if Mi. Toralin
sou asked for it,) that he (Tomlinson]
had borrowed the money or endorsed
a note at the bank to get the money
which was used for the purpose oi
pissing the phosphate bill through,
This is substantially the same state
meut as that made by bira in his
Charleston speech. In reply I have
to say that there is absolutely not the
shadow of truth in the statement. J
am bound to believe, even against
some reasons for lack of faith in his
perfect veracity, that in this instance
.Mr. Melton thinks he has foundation
for his charge, and I will be only too
glad to have his authority for the as'
v - - < j - t
sertion lie has seen nt to mane.
Of course you do not ask me now to
prove that somebody did not tell Mr.
Melton that I had done the thing
charged, although the language ol
your editorial of Friday would seem to
imply that it was niv duty so to do.
1 respectfully submit that there is no
parallel between the charges made
against myself and those made against
Mr. Moses. It is judicially proven
that there have been fraudulent issues
of pay certificates? see the affidavit ol
Treasurer Parker iu answer to Judge
Willard's order, in which it is shown
that $441,000 of pay certificates for
1872 had beeu redeemed at the treasury,
and that for fcJO'J.oOd the treasurer's
notes had been given, to say nothing
of the large amount not yet taken
care of by the treasurer?and yet you
seem to place the chalge of Smith,
Jones or J'.rown that 1 have stolen a
horse or robbed a bank, in the same
category with tlitse charges which are
of judicial record. In your desire to
hold the scales even between the two
Kadical factions, I fear }OU lean a little
to the other side.
In conclusion allow me to say, that
my councction with the phosphate bill
was just this. 1 voted for it because 1
thought it for the interest of Charleston
and of the State to do so. 1 urged
the Governor not to veto it for the
same reason, and for other reasons not
personal to myself, an t I have as yet
seen no reason to regret my action.
For my stock in the company, which
is not $40,000, nor anything near tl a!.
amount, I have paid precisely what
every stockholder in the company has
paid, including in the list some of the
most honorable business men in
Charleston. Some of the wildest and
most absurd things have been said
with reference to the grant under
which the company with which I am
connected and others associated with
us are acting. Without betraying
business matters which do not concern
the public, permit me to say, that up
; to this time the only parties wno nave
reaped any benefit from that grant are
the State of South Carolina and the
hundreds of mechanics and laboring
' men employed by these companies.
! 1 am, very respectfully, your obedient
servant,
Reuben Tomlinson.

Mules for Moses. aid
fr<t
On Saturday last a fine pair of mules ^
came to Senator Smalls as a present from
Frank Moses. They pre campaign mules, jQg
and are to he used in hauling the speak- j a
ors for Moses round the County. The
mules are too honest looking for such
work. One is Darned Validating Bill the in
Certifi Kate. Their tails are appropri- fini
ately shaved to indicate the condition of ]
the state treasury. But they are good pu1
^ mules, and intelligent. We are told that sio
a progenitor of theirs, on the father's side, die
| rebuked Balaam for a lying prophecy. Stf
[ If these animals are equally sensitive to pr<
falsehoods we may be able to chronicle a the
protest from them before the campaign is ]

God bless you Sumner, for that word!
And may its utterance be heard
Above the din of party strife,
Until our nation has new life
In Reconciliation.
i
The storm of war has passed away,
And now there dawns a brighter day
Let North and South, o'er the abyss,
Join hand in hand and seek for this:
A Reconciliation,
From Maine to California's shore,
Let Brotherhood exist once more;
Revengeful feelings banished far,
We look upon the blessed star
Of Reconciliation.
Did good e'er come from nursing long
A spirit of revenge for wr#ng?
Or can our wound e'er have a balm
So healing as the potent charm
Of Reconciliation.
O, glorious sisterhood of States,
Too long embroiled by fierce debates,
'Tis time to sheathe the vengeful sword,
And listen to the Wise Man's word:
Seek Reconciliation.
Our people love not to obey
A Military Chieftain's sway;
'Tis not in strong compulsion's school
That factions can he taught the rule
Of Reconciliation.
With liopoful confidence we trust
One who is honest, true and just;
For Hoiuck Okkelky is the man
Whoso kind and gentle r.aturo ran
Bring Reconciliation.
