WEDNESDAY. APRIL, ft, 1692.
Stick to the Constitution.
The Constitution of the Democratic
party of South Carolina in
Article X. says: ^There shall be a
primary election in each Congressional
District in this State on the
last Tuesday in August, 1892, and i
every two years thereafter to nominate
candidates for Congress.'' We,
therefore, think that the resolutions
passed by several Democratic i
clubs, on Saturday, endorsing Dr. J.
Wm. Stokes forestall the provisions
of the Constitution confering
the right of any candidate to the full
w
and unbiased decision of Democratic
voters in a primary. We do net
wish to be understood as in opposition
to Dr. Stokes or any one else
who may aspire to the office, but
merely in opposition to any action
which may forestall the free choice
of voters from among any two or
more Democratic candidates who
may see fit to run.

Btrictly on the lines provided by the
Constitution, on an unbiased plane,
free of prejudice and prescription.
If this is not done it will widen the
split instead of healing the breach.
There are honest and conscientious
differences of opinion in the ranks of
the Democracy which can only be
healed by temperate and logical discussions
and every patriot will endeavor
to work on such lines instead
of appealing to prejudice and passion.
Let this be the aim of every good
Democrat, and after the result is declared
by the primary let all acquiesce
and give their hearty support.
The State convention of the so
called Keform Republican Party of
?v South Carolina met in Columbia ves\
' *
terday. It was composed of about
an equal number of whites
and blacks. A State central committee
was appointed, delegates to
the National Republican convention
elected and a platform adopted. The
delegates from Lexington county
were, Simeon Corley, P. H. Gross,
L. J. Shealy, S. A. B. Harman, B.
F; Gross, Jackson Counts, white:
Alexander Hartley, James Rawl and
James Lowman colored.
in the numerical proportion to which
snob fvnmt.v is entitled in both
braches of the General Assembly."
, Therefore Lexington county will be
entitled to 3 delegates to the State
convention of the 18th of May.

A Beclogical Szcnrsicn to Little
Mountain.
To the Editor of the Lexington
Dispatch: On last Tuesday morniDg
about half-past five o'clock the students
of Newberry College were
awakened by the loud shrill of the
college bell. Of course this was an
unusual hour for the ringing of the
bell, but as this was the dav set apart
V 1
for the geological excursion to the
Little Mountain, it meant that a
special occasion was at hand, and for
the Seniors and the seminarians to
awake out of their morning slumbers

^ sensible of its meaning, and equally
responsive to its call, and by half
past six o'clock we were ready, and
our conveyances having been driven
up on the college campus, we were
soon in them and on our way.
Our party consisted of our worthy
President, Dr. G. W. Holland, five
seminarians, nine Seniors and a waitman.
We amused ourselves with
jokes and little incidents happening
ing by the way, and it is needless to
say that we enjoyed our drive, because
a crowd of boys, having been
closely confined within college walls
and their minds wholly given to their
books, are calculated to be merry
when they are out. on such a trip.
About nine o'clock we reached the
l'iil x c t !iil- . 1
turiviDg i:ia? town 01 xjh it- jiouiuain,
where we were joined by Dr. J.
h 31. Sease and Mr. W. A. Shealy. both
Alumni of Newberry College, and
Mr. A. N. Maud, a prominent citizen
of ihiw town. Soon we were at
ibiflfcug* pU? of atese.
at the place so well known as the
pic nic founds. ! _
Here we left our horses and vehicles
in charge of our waitman, and c
after refreshing: "ourselves with a cool t
drink of water from one of the a
springs which issues from the side of fc
the mountain, we began to ascend the
middle peak of the three peaks which j ^
comprise the mountain. Onour way ^
up the mountain we examined the i
rocks and found them to be wholly
v
of plutonic origin, composed chiefly ^
of quartz, feldspar, mica and hornblende,
with a great abundance of
iron diffused through them. While
some of us were thus engaged inspecting
the rocks with the aid of I
our miscroscope, others were equally i
as busy in viewing the surrounding S
country by the aid of the telescope, ^
Vmf nr? nppminf nf flip VlJIZV fttmoS- S
phere, we were not able to see very far
with our telescope. Thus we t
went over to the side, kept busy ex- r
amining the different specimens of
rock, and advancing theories as to
their origin and formation and con- j
versing about their constituent parts,
while Dr. Holland was kept busy j
making explanations of the different
specimens which were carried to him g
for that purpose. We then made c
our way over the eastern peak and j
on this peak we came to the Indian
grave, thus known by tradition. Af1C

grave and not finding anything of
special interest, we proceeded to the
place where men once sought for
gold, but in vain. When we had
closely examined the iron pyrites of
this cavity, we went down on the east
end of the mountain to the creek
where we observed some very beautiful
outcroppings of sandstone and
slates.
The hour for dinner now having
arrived, we returned to the springs
where we had left our retinue, and
there spread out the delicious eataables
which had been prepared by
our good boarding house proprietors
for our use on this occasion. All the
delicacies requisite for a good pic
nic dinner were there spread before
us, and alter enjoying tnem to our J
utmost satisfaction, being somewhat '
fatigued from climbing the mountains <
we sat down for about an hour's rest. ]
We then went over the east end of ]
the middle peak, and thence on the ]
western peak; this being the highest ]
and steepest of the three peaks. We ]
enjoyed ourselves for a short while (
rolling huge stones down this great i
precipice. Having descended the ]
explored one of its traverse valleys. 1
On the south side of this valley is a
cave which, after a close examination,
we named the "yellow yiolefc cave,"
from the numerous plants of this
specie which grow around it. Then
we again returned to the springs, and
after resting a short while we proceeded
on our way back to Newberry,
leaving one of our Seniors behiud
who, being so near and wishing to go
home, and thus impelled by a longing
to see his girl, could not suffer the
loss of this opportunity. We were
accompanied on our way back by Dr.
Sidney Black who graduated this
spring at the Medical College of
Baltimore. When we were back at the
college we were kept busy along while
if x J
giving an account 01 our tour anu
the result of our investigations to
our fellow students.
The Little Mountain is a protuberance
on or near the line between Lexington
and Newberry counties, and
is evitably the result of an upheaval
caused by lateral pressure, as shown
by the cleavage structure of the
rocks, and was formed at the end of
the tertiary or the beginning of the
quarternary period. As we have said
the rocks are wholly of plutonic
origin, and are principally granite,
syenite and diorite in kind. In some
of these rocks feldspar is the predominant
mineral and forms what is
known as posphyritic granite; in
others the beautiful and glittering
. % .*/. i i
transparent lamiual ot mica, wmcn
constitute the syenitic granite, are
easily perceptible. Such is the formation
of the Little Mountain, but
rock are being rapidly disintegrated
by the incessant action of aqueous
and atmospheric agencies. Soil is
thus being rapidly formed, but in
some places is as fast carried away.
We could very easily observe the
hand of nature at work in the decomposition
of the rock, and the
time will come, unless counteracting
agency interposes, when, this huge
mass of stone will be transformed
into soil. The mountain is also
clothed in beautiful verdure. One
the herbs, a cure for a rattlesnake
bite, was shown to us by Dr. Sease;
and numerous springs of the most
salubrious water issue from every
side of the mountain. Having measured
and calculated the daily outflow
of one of these springs, we
found it to be over fifteen thousand
gallons.
I have briefly given the result of
investigations, and we not only enO
7 *
joyed our trip, but feel that we have
been greatly benefited and our knowledge
of the science of geology ad

great majority of the citizens of
Hollow Creek township, are either
directly or indirectly interested in
and dependent upon the business of

heaped upon us Incorporations, syndicates,
trust, the money power, etc.,
are seriously threatening our homes,
our free institutions and our liberty,
and that we, as free citizens of the
Republic of the United States, assert
our manhood andour rights by adopting
the following,
Resolved, 1st. That Hollow Creek
Democratic club denounces in unmeasured
terms the action of our
Congressman, W. H. Biawley, in his
persistent opposition to the only
measure of relief that has thus far
been before the 52d Congress, viz.:
the free coinage of silver.
2d. That we will support no man
in the coming primary election who
is not in full sympathy with all the
farmers' demands, and that
3d, We will under no circumstances
support any man with our
votes as a candidate for Congressman
from the 1st District that has
' * 'Mil ? J i.
not oeen a iaitinui ana consislvui advocate
of all the fanners' demands
and that he pledge his word and
sacred honor to stand bj them under
all circumstances while he is our representative.
4th, That a majority of the members
of our club, knowing the history
of the Hon. J. W. Stokes' record,
and that he has been a firm and
uncompromising defender of all the
farmers' rights, principles and demands,
and that he is a statesman and
Christian gentleman, we fully and
unequivocally endorse his past acts; !
nominate him as our standard bearer
to succeed Hon. W. H. Brawley, and

5th, Fully agreeing -with the sen-1
timents of the late lamented and
honored statesman, Calhoun, that
national banks are more dangerous
to our liberty than standing armies,
and that we consider their abolition
of far more importance than any
other issue before the people, that we
require of our standard bearer a
pledge that he will leave no honorable
means in his power untried to effect
their speedy abolition and in their
stead government issue money direct
to the people at a low rate of tax.

I have been informed that there is
some dissatisfaction in Hollow Creek
rownship on account of the .Democratic
club meeting being called to
neet at Boylston Academy instead of
Mt. Pleasant. Two years ago we
passed a resolution in our club meetng
to alternate the meetings thereifter
from Boylston to Mt. Pleasant.
[ have learned since I called the club
meeting that the last meeting was
aeld at Boylston and the next meet:ng
should have been at Mt. Pleasant.
[ diid not attend the last meeting
consequently it had slipped my memcry.
I did not do it intentionally
and hope this explanation will prove
satisfactory to all concerned, as I
would not dc anything to cause a
disturbance in our township.
