The Charleston Riot. h
k
h
Durine the entire forenoon yester
day Broad street, froi the court 1
house to East Bay, was filled by a
crowd of anxious citizens, eagerly a
awaiting additional news about the b
national and State elections. As each a
dispatch came in and was bulletined, sl
they would give a round of cheers, E
and when it finally became tolerably s,
certain that Hampton had carried the
State, despite the negro repeating in t]
Charleston, their enthusiasm was un- n
bounded. In the meantime the ex- 1(
deputy sheriffs and Lluakidori bullies 0
had assembled to the nuuiber of about r
300 or 400 at the court house. They t4
seemed to be despondent over the v
news, until about 3 o'clock, when p
Worthington, Mackey and Buttz gave s
out a dispatch saying that Hayes and P
Wheeler were elected, and that Chan
berlain had carried the State by 16,- P
000 majority. Then they fired up e
and seemed to be ready for a ro.v. o
About half-past 3 o'clock there was c
a disturbance in Meeting street oppo- r
site the Charleston Hotel, caused by F
the insolence of a negro to a white d
man. A squad of policemen were at d
once despatched to the scene and suc- a
ceeded in restoring quiet. By this 3
time the court house mob had, so to ii
say, become red-hot. They were evi- v
dently mad at the election returns, v
which their leaders knew meant "go 1
home" for the carpet-baggers and
back seats for renegade Carolinians- r
About 4 o'clock Mr. E. W. M. Mac- I
key came down Broad street and be- c
gan to boast about the election of I
Hayes and Chamberlain. This pro
voked a discussion, which finally led
to a. quarrel, during which a young
man fired his pistol accidentally in t
the air. A negro immediately rushed
down to the ex deputy sheriffs at the
court house, nearly all of whom were
armed, both with pistols and blud
geons, and announced that Mackey ,
had been shot. The crowd immedi
ately raised a yell and rushed down f
Broad street.
The whites stood their ground and 0
received the attack firmly. Another
pistol shot was fired, and then a dozen
in rapid succession. The black mob r
stampeded, and retreated in the di
rection of Church street. where they j
were met by a squad of policemen
who had been sent to the scene upon
the first report. The rioters emptied
their revolvers while running, and
then those who, did not have their j
bludgeons with them tore down tree 1
boxes and paling fences and armed i
themselves at once. The police force
with their Winchester rifles for the
most part discharged their duty as
well as they could under the circum
stances. They brought in a number
of prisonet's and several of the wound
*ed, but in order to do so they had to
brandish their pistols and rifles. Very
few of them fired. When the crowd
reached the corner of Broad and Meet- s
ing streets the negroes were much ex
cited. Some of them rushed to the e
places where they had their arms cou
cealed. Others went home. A large
number of the Hunkidori rowdies
made a dash at the main entrance of
the station house and tried to force c
their way in, shouting "Give us
Guns !"t
Chief Hendricks had taken the
precaution, however, of stationing a
couple of men at the door, who, with
their bayonets, managed to keep the i
crowd back. In the meanwhile a pis
tol was fired by a negro at a white ']
mau, and this was a signal for a gen- f
eral volley. The few white men who S
were in the vicinity, as soon as the C
negroes began firing, drew their re- t
volvers and returned the fire. The c
police were powerless to stop the dis- d
turbance. Every negro fired his pis
tol at every white man he saw, and1
after he had emptied his weapon re
treated to reload. It was in this fight
that Mr. E. H. Waiter was killed and
Mr. Geo. H. Walter, one of the old
est and most respectable merchants of
Charleston, was painfully wounded. ~
Neither of them fired a shot , neither ~
of them drew a revolver, and it is not t
known that either of them had a pis- v
tol on his person. They were both C
shot down in cold blood, because of I
their faces being white. Mr. E. H.~
Walter was killed instantly, the ball 1
passing entirely through his chest
from left to right. Mr. Geo. H. Wal- v
ter, his father, was shot in the left a
breast near the shoulder. The fusil- I
lades at the corner of Broad and Meet- ?
ing streets was kept up fully ten mini-r
utes. a
In the meantime the whites had a
begun to rally. They all reported at c
once to the station house with their '
rifies, and by the time the United r
States troops,~who were sent for. had ~
arrived, there were about five hun
dred white citizens, who had volun
teered to act as special police. Gen.
Hunt, commanding the United States
troops, had a conference with Chief
Hendricks, and a squad of colored 3
policemen, backed by a number of
white volunteers, were sent out to
qjuell the disturbance, while the .rest
were kept under arms in front of the 5
main station house. About 5 o'clock,
Company E, of the 5th Artillery, '
Major Kenze, and Company B, of the C
1st Artillery, Major R. T. Frank, ar
rived at the station house. The citi
zen police were ordered to fall in ina
the rear of the soldiers. The negroes e
by this time had all disappeared, ex- I
cept in certain localities. In the bend 2j
of King street, near Market street, I
about 200 of them had assembled with P
their muskets, and no white faces be- 1
ing in sight, amused themselves with
firing in the air and smashing the
windows of the stores. A part of the
same crowd occupied Robb's lot, fir
ing upon and clubbing white men
who chanced to pass.f

eon was attending to his wound. the
vage would rise up in a sitting posture

riously wounded.
Buttz and Worthington were in
*ttz's house in Broad street, and were
en to pass -out ridies to the mob.
It seems to be the general impression
iat Mr. Walter was killed by a police
ian. Mr. E. W. Walter makes the fol
)wing statement relative to the shooting
f Mr. E. H. Walter, his brother: While
-turning from dinner in company with
ies'srs. C. F. Hard, Captain G. H. Wal
r, E. H. Walter and W. J. MeCormack,
re were attacked in Meeting street, op
oite the city park, by a mob of ne
roes, who commenced firing upon the
artv. The fire was returned by us in
,lf-defense, and the firing from the
iob continued until a squad of negro
olice came out, and from the northeast
rner of Meeting and Broad streets,
pened fire upon the party with Win
bester rifles. The gentlemen then took
fuge behind tree boxes, and a black
oliceman got behind a tree box and
eliberately took aim and fired at Mr.
. H. Walter, killing him almost imme
iately. The same negro policeman
gain fired upon Mr. E. W. Walter and
Ir. C. F. Hard,several of the balls bury
ig themselves in the tree box behind
rbich they stood. Capt. Geo. H. Waiter
7as shot through the left breast by the
egro mob, who still kept up their
ring. The firing from the negro police
ontinued until Captain Hendricks ar
ived, and under his protection the dead
ody of Mr. E. H. Walter and the rest
f the party were conveyed to the station

WEDNESDAY, NOV. 15, 1876.
A PAPER FOR THE PEOPLE.
The Herald is in the highest respect a Fam
ily Newspaper, devoted to the material in
terests of the people of this County and the
State. It circulates extensively, and as an
Advertising medium offers unrivalled ad
vantages. For Terms, see first page.
The Democrats have filed a protest
against the election in Newberry
County, on the grounds of fraud and
illegality. The Democratic County
Convention has jtist assembled to-day
(Tuesday) as we go to press.
The Democrats have elepted five
Circuit Solicitors, viz: in the 4th
Circuit, W. W. Sellers; 5th, Jno. R.
Abney; 6th, T. C. Gaston; 7th, B.
W. Ball; 8th, Joo. S. Cothran.
From what we have been able to
learn we feel confident of the election
of Tilden and Hampton both. Hamp
ton has undoubtedly been elected.
There is no use ;n being uneasy about
State Canvassers and such matters;
the Democrats are not going to be
cheated out of this election.
"Starvation Resolutions."
That is the name the Radicals give
to the resolutions passed by the mer
chants of N4ewberry. A large majori
ty of the colored people of this Coun
ty voted at the late election what may
fitly be called the starvation ticket.
They Elected by their ballots, aided by
fraud and intimidation, the worst set
of men that ever disgraced the County
offices. They voted against every in
terest of the County. They voted de
fiantly and in most cases maliciously.
They have shown themselves the ene
iies of the merchants and planters,
upon whom they depend tor positions
and support. The Democrats have
declared almost unanimously that they
would show no favors to those who
should vote against their interests at
the 1ate election, and would regard
with special favor all w'ho should vote
for honest government. Now, what
will be the result of such resolutions
and declarations ? Will they be car
ried out ? These are questions that
are now causing no little concern. So
far as our own individual interests are
concerned, we can afford to carry ott
the resolutions without much trouble
and inconvenience. Our business is
of such a nature as not to be affected
very materially by them one way or the
other. Upon the werchants and the
farmers rests the burden of the matter,
and we do not feel that we have a
right to offer -any advice on the sub
ject. But we are free to say this
much: the colored men who voted
with us ought to be treated -and of
course will be treated-with the very
kindest consideration. Both j ustice
and policy demand it. They have
acted the part of friends towards us in
our time of need. They deserve as
much credit as if we had succeeded.
He who does his best acts nobly.
Justice, therefore, demands that pre
ference should invariably be given to
them. Besides, those colored men are
watching; they are going to see how
the Democrats fulfill their promises.
Suppose they are put upon the same
footing and left to the same chanees
as Radical supporters, where will they
stand when another election comes
round ? Can anybody doubt ? They
have encountered- the most violent
opposition in taking the manly stand
they have taken ; gond if no advan
tages whatever accrue to them there
by they will not take it again. Policy,
therefore, demands that the Democrats
should give preference to them. But
what about those who supported our
eneies ? They have perpetuated mis
rule and corruption in the county ;
they have sunk the county infinitely
lower than it has ever gone before.
They have brought us to greater suf
fering ; and we do say that they should
be made to suffer first, and to reap the
just reward of their own folly and
hate. Some Radical office-holder may
raise his sanctimonious voice against
what he calls such unfeeling measures;
if so, let him come to the help of his
friends. It is high time the people
of the County and State were feeling
for themselves now. If they ao not
adopt some measures for their deliver
ance, they had as well be in Liberia
at once, or in the black republic of
Hayti. No government at all would
be far preferable to the incompetent,
corrupt and tyrannical. government we
have been living under for the last
aeo-ht t.ears.
Newberry Fought Nobly.
Let no man say that Newberry
County did not do hcr* duty in the
late campaign and election, for she
did nobly. Look at the facts and
figures. See what she has done : In
1870 Scott's majority in the County
was 1,270; in 1872 Moses' majority
was 1,831 ; in 1874 Chomberlain's
majority was 1,705; in 1876 Cham.
berlain's majority was 565. New
berry has therefore reduced the Radi
cal majority 1,140 within the last two
years. In the number of voters she is
an exact average, or so nearly an aver
age as to be practically exact. The
whole State vote in 1874 was 149,221;
there are 32 counties in the State;
that would give an average vote to
each county of 4,663. The vote of
Newberry County in 1874 was 4,657,
almost an exact average. Suppose
every county in the State had reduced
the Radical majority 1,140, as New
berry did, the whole reduction would
have been 36,480. Chamberlain's
majority in 1874 was only 11,585; that
taken from 36,480 would leave 24.895
for Hampton's majority in 1876. But
we must make allowance for those
counties where Green got a majority
then and Chamberlain gets it now.
Charleston, Clarendon and Sumter,
the only counties that gave Green
more votes in 1874 than they gave
Hampton in 1876. aggregate a Green
majority of 7,157, which taken from
24,895 leaves 17,738. That majority
at least would have been given for
Hampton on the 7th of November, if
every county in the State had done as
much as Newberry did. Of course,
we should have been better sa.,isfied
if Newberry had gone Democratic
throughout, but we ought to feel proud
for what she has done. In maaing
the above statement, there is no inten
tion to take away one particle of credit
from the work of any other county;
but only an attempt to convince our
people that their labors have not been
thrown away.
Our neighbors of Laurens were
more successful than we; they made
a gain of 2.238 votes-a tremendous
gain; but they did not have the diffi
culties to contend against that we had
here. Laurens has done nobly, as
well as Newberry.
"Demoralizationl."
We hear much and read a great
deal in the papers about the demoral
izig effects of the late campaign.
This we firmly believe is a mistake.
There are always people ready to
croak and find fault ; to look on the
dark side of everything. What the
demoralization co'osists in nobody pre
sumes to say. Have the people grown
more wicked ? Have the good people
lost their religion ? Have the bad
people grown worse ? We do not
hesitate to say that the man who lost
his religion or morality, or any part of
it, in the campaign had precious little
to lose. So far from the campaign
having had a demoralizing tendancy.
its effect has been just the opposite,
according to our experience and obser
vation. We are not going to believe,
without very strong evidence, that
men engaged in such an earnest, no
ble effort as has occupied the minds of
South Carolinians since the campaign
egan, will suffer in character. Men
do not lose good principles while sup
porting a good cause. It is not the
man who is strugg'ing for better
things that fails or degens.rates, but
the idler and the coward, who are too
indolent or too timid to make a wauly
effort. The camrpaign has been a
serious one, conducted by serious, sober
minds. It was a determined struggle
for life and liberty. All other objects
were, of necessity, left in the back
ground for the time being. The good
people of the State and County laid
aside all other considerations, and said
like St. Paul, "This one thing we do"
-redeem the State.
Let us hear no more of demoraliza
tion about the3 election. South Caro
linians are better men by it. We are
mgoig to have a better time every way,
and everybody is going to be good
from this time forth.
The Public Schools.
This is a matter in which the poor
people, black and white, are profound
ly interested. It was on this very
plea that many colored men were in
duced to quit the Republican party.
That party has failed in this matter
most egregiously. The officials who
handled the money appropriated to
this purpose, appropriated a large por
tion of it to their own use, or to the
use of the party. There are strong
reasons to believe that a large portion
of the school fund was used for camn
paign purposPs this year. Now, every
man should make it his duty to watch
this matter. It is the poor man's
'interest and should be conduced for
his benefit. We shall have something
to say on this subject soon. We re
'gard it as of the highest importance.
-I
Capital and Labor.
What Newberry needs now, more
than anything else, is some sort of en
terprise or establishment that will fur
nish support to her poorer classes.
There is a large number of persons,
male and female, in the town and
County, who need employment. They
are willing to work, but inany of them
have not the work to do. We have
never felt the conflict between laboi
and capital here as it is felt in the
populous and wealthy cities of the
North. But as wealth and populatiou
iucrease, this conflict is bound tc
arise, and we should be getting ready
to meet it. What are wealthy mea
to do with their capital? What arE
poor men to do with their labor i
These are questions that our leadino
citizens ought to set about to solve.
Some enterprise should be inaugurated
at once to utilize, in the best possiblE
way, both the capital and labor of oui
people. An Act was passed by th(
Legislature of 1872-3, incorporatino
the Newberry Cotton Mills. We arE
unable to say what has become of that
enterprise; but hope the matter may
be revived soon, and that somethinc
will be done in that very direction. 11
appears to us that Cotton Mills migh
be established here with profit to oui
moneyed men, and they would certain
ly be a great blessing to our laborint
classes. Besides, they would be th(
meaus of increasing the population o
the place very materially, by attract
ing white laborers from the North
So the matter assumes a politictl as
pect that is very encouraging. A
gentleman of the place is in corres
pondeuce with parties interested it

promised us the results of his investi
gations. Meantime those citizens wh

What it Costs to Mlake a Presi
dent.
The New York Herald has been
making an estimate of the expenses
of the late Presidential campaign. It
e(III1udes that $1,500,000 were spent
by each party, or $3,000,000 by both,
buina, fifteen times more than the
President's salary. So it costs fifteen
times more to put Mr. Tilden or Mr.
Haves intu the White House than it
will cost to keep him there his whole
term of four years. This would be
equivaltent to a tax of seven and a half
cents per head ou every man, woman
aud child in the United States.
Though called an expense, this is not
in reality so, for the greater part of
the nioney only changes hands and is
not lost. to either party.
