gF EASGLE'S 3AEBEBTJE.
We attended the barbecue at Mr.
K W. R. Eargle's on Saturday and were
not surprised to find everything in
apple pie order as this is the only
way friend Dick has things. The
meats were excellently prepared by
W \ Mr. Pat Lindler. The attendance
\Twas large and we think paid Mr.
L^orgie iianasomeiy.
11 a. m. Mr. G. A. Derrick
announced that speaking was in order
and introduced as first speaker
F. C. CAUOHMAN.
Jn/brief, he said that the up rising
of the citizens at this time was not
confined to South Carolina, but was
from Florida to Maine. The common
people had arrived at that point
when they began to think and act for
' * 1 -L 11 ? il. I
tnemseives, ana it was weu-xur mem
to do so. In 1876 the Democratic
party had redeemed the State from
Republican' rule and promises of
retrenchment and reform were then
made and not an instance could be
filed where any of those promises
|&|^^^^tiHH[ere caried out; but, on the other
hand, they had multiplied and in
creased offices at the people's expense.
He declared that the registration
y w law wi?.? litntuiuus in uic ciur'^tc ouu
% should be abolished. He referred to
% the enormous amounts due by several
\ counties on delinquent land, that the
\State was receiving nothing from
v yhose lands and that other counties
were paying an unjust proportion of
\ taxes to run the State government.
declared that his promise to
serve? ihe people for one-half of the
salary was in good faith and not a
bid for votes; that he had a higher
aim in view.
MS. E. L. WINGARD
was next introduced. He gave an
account of his past stewardship; had
served the people to the best of his
ability, and if elected promised to
conduct the office in accordance with
*?- law; could not promise to refund oneha)f
of the salary but woi3Kh-ce&?.
duct the office on as economical
plan as poss^^', taking only the
salary actually necessary as provided
by law for his services. He favored
man with which he was in full accord.
TT ! 1 * 1. 3 It. . T
jtie reierrea to nis recora in me J-ieg
islature, in which he had always endeavored
to do his duty in following
the dictates of his own conscience in
doing that which was for the general
good of the people. He favored reform,
but we must have a Constitutional
conventftn to bring about
some of the greatest reforms needed.
"We could reduce some salaries and
abolish some offices, which he favored,
among them some of the
clerks employed in the State offices.
The revenue of the State could be
increased by the phosphate royalty.
He favored bi-annual sessions of the
Legislature which would be a great
saving to the State; that some county
offices might be abolished with a sav
lUg *us>u.
MAJ. G. LEAPHART
said that ours was a government of,
for and by the people, but it looked
as though the officers were the masters
and the people the servants.
He compared the work of the laboring
classes with that of the present
State officers and their clerks; that the
latte^!75nt to work at 9 and 10 o'clock
an? would knock off at 2 and 3 at
^ Salaries of from $1,200 to $1,500 per
annum. That the officers would do
very little work and would go to the
mountains for their health and have
the clerks to perform the duties.
This was all wrong; reduce the clerks
and let the officers discharge their
portion of the work by working longer
each day. As to Tillman, he was
virtually elected: but the Governor
was not the only important part of
the government; the Legislature and
other officers must be in sympathy
with him. The State debt should be
refunded at less than 6 per cent. A
Constitutional convention was necessary
to bring about many needed reforms.
There could be a saving in
the county by adopting the mode of
management existing prior to the
war with frpp Rohnnl mads. nnnr. &p
Before the war taxes were collected
for ?400 or ?500, now it costs the
county about ?100; did not oppose
the school system, but did not think
it was doing much good. Believed
that the Agricultural College would
prove to be a good institution. That
a great deal to lessen the burden of
our people depended upon the National
Government. He was a member
of the Alliance; was a farmer
and favored all farmers' associations.

mortgages and money that were
never upon the tax books, making
the burden of taxation heavier on
those who return their property as
the law directs. The money of banks
should be returned for taxation the
same as other property. There were
a great deal of delinquent lands belonging
to the State that were not
paying one cent to the government,
they should be disposed of so as tc
become liable to taxation, and thereby
lessen the burden now upon the peo
pie.

e~ them not drop an encouraging word
for him. If he expects to feed on
ls public pap, it is perfectly right that
^ he should be liberal for all good
11 causes. While he is boring every>e
body to death for votes, let the chil
8" dren and the fair lasses bore him a
r0
little; and if he can't stand it, just
s~
let him get into his hole, and that
18 quick, too.
ie He made a splendid comparison
?8 when he represented the candidate
11 as a jumping bull, and said: "Had
l* there not been good stock in that
pen that bovine never would have
thought of jumping in." All! my
re son, it is not the good stock that in
111 duces him to jump. Neither is it
e" the good stock nor high character of
?s politicians that causes the candidates
5 to seek a soft place, but it is that
6 great desire to reign, rule, and feaRt
>e on the fatness of office. "When his
m great thirst is quenched (if indeed it
?s ever is) he cares no more for the
re stock of that pen, but seeks another
,n that he thinks more congenial.
That pig he speaks of wants to be
a candidate?it is squealing and
d kicking to get out of the bag that it
le may join in the race for the
it corn patch. It is just like all the
g balance of the Alliance pigs?full of
is that haggish nature, and if it can
it root out some other little pig and
s. get in the trough itself, it is going to
>d stand there with all four feet. Of
>n course, nobody blames the pig for
loving slop, it would not be of the
hog kind if it did not. The old sow
>o is doing the rallying and the pigs are
t doing the squealing; and many of
d them may reach the trough of public
n pap, but after a short time they will
is return to their wallowing place in
it the mire.

3ut what has it done? Notwithstanding
the fact that it was to be
trictly non political (so they claimed)
t has overleaped its bounds and is
low breasting the great political
rave. A ^number of petty office
eekers who held claims on the sect

hat are n>ore remunerative than their

Mr. Howard Harkens to the Call of j
His Country.
Mr. Editor: As I have been living- j
a private life for several years and oft*!
the line of politics, and am no office j
seeker, 1 was very much surprised at
receiving a communication signed
''numerous voters," soliciting me to
announce myself as a candidate for the |
Legislature at once on the Tillman \
ticket, and as I see that my name !
has been announced 011 that ticket, I
am glad to say to my friends and the
public generally that that is the platform
that I have been lighting for
for the last ten years, both in private
conversations and public speeches,
advising the farmers to combine together
in farmers' clubs and organize
themselves into conventions and
adopt such rules as would suit best
to get hold of the government that
a just and economical government
raierht be established once more. I
am a Democrat and have always been
one, but I must say that we have not
had a Democratic government for several
years, if we had, the people would
have been the law makers, but as it
is the members of the Legislature
are the rulers and law makers. Therefore
the people have become the servants
and the members of the Legislature
their masters. In a Democratic
Government the people are the
masters and the members of the
Legislature are their agents or servants
to transact business for them,
and if the present rulers would have
adhered strictly to Democratic prinflip
ciy rmlhnr> dnllars that is
now hanging over the State never
would have been there. Now I want
the people to look at the enormous
debt that is hanging over them and
to remember that when this party
that has more toney than brains and
more pride than purse came into
power the State did not owe a dollar
in the world. Now, as my correspondents.
signed "numerous voters,"
say that I must come out of my retirement,
that my country calls me,
I, therefore, respond to my country's
call, and will, if elected, do all in my
power to establish a true Democratic
administration. The time is short
and as I will not be able to canvass
the county, I will give the public my
views in regard to government affairs:
I am in f^vor of a reduction of all
fees and salaries; and that the Treas
ant day. The following speakers
were announced, some of whom made
fine speeches: W. H. Sharpe, F. C.
Caughman, E. L. TVingard, G. A.
Lucas, Maj. Leaphart, J. H. Counts,
C. M. Efird, Maj. H. A. Meetze. J. A.
Shealy, A. 0. Banks and M. D. Harman
declared themselves fully in accord
with the Farmers' Movement
and Ben Tillman for Governor. No
day in the county for peace and quiet
has shed greater glory on the canvass
than Boiling Springs. Long
live the club of Boiling Springs and
the fearless Dispatch. Festus.
