The Herald. THOS. F. GRENEKER, EDITORs I W. H. WALLACE, s a NEWBERRY. S. C. WEDNESDAY, FEB. 9, 18 , A PAPER FOR TEIE 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 * Advertisig medium offers unrivalled ad vantages. Tr Terms, see first page. The Professions of Our Legisla- I tora. It may interest some of our read ers to know the professions of those who make their laws. We there- t fore give the professions of the House members. It will be seen that the farmers constitute a large majority of the body. Out of 124, they have 68 ; so that there can be 'no reason to complain that this most important portion of our peo ple is- neglected or forgotten, or discriminated against in the matter I of law making. There are in the House: Law _yers, 26-1 of these is also an edi tor and 1 a banker. Farmers, 68-4 of these are also merchants, and 8 are physicians. Physicians, 14-1 of these is also a druggist, and 8 are farmers. Merchants, 9-4 of these are also farmers. Teachers, 3. Mechanics, 2. - Contractors, 2. Butcher, 1. Banker, 1-he is also a lawyer. Factor, L. Insurance Agent, 1. - Carpenter, 1. Minister, 1. We are not able to give the pro fessions of the Senators ; but the proportion of the farmers is fully as large~as in the House. Stolbrand vs. Aiken.. Our people sho~uld watch very closely the contest now going on in town ; they should attend the tak ' ing of testimony, anid should ob serve carefully the evidence given and the parties giving it. If any witness be detected swearing false ly -let him be prosecuted at once for perjury. Col. Aiken has un doubtedly been elected to Congress from this District ; and were it not for the fact that the next House of Representatives will have a Repub lican majority the case of Stolbrand vs. Aiken would very likely never have been heard of. The defeated candidate has the legal right to make acontest and to get all the evidence he can in support of his| case ; but the people who elected| Col. Aiken to Congress should see| that their rights are not sworn away by glib-tongued, ignorant Radical witnesses with impunity.| The prominent candidates for U.| S. Marshal for this State are R. M. Wallace, present incumbent, T. B. 1 Johnston, of Sumter, and a Mr. Adamns,~ of Camden. Wallace was| nominated by the President, but the Senate refused to confirm the nomination. Johnston is the can- 1 didate of the stalwarts; but Adamsi has the inside track. He is an Ohio 1 man and is a frienid of Chief Justice < Waite. He came to this State after a the war, and has been engaged in E business in Kershaw County since. He has never been in politics. t Since his residence in this State he1 t has always voted the National Re-I publican ticket, and the-State Dem- f ocratic ticket. He stands well in t his County and wherever known, -a and his appointment would give 3 more atisfaction to the people of I the State than that of any of the E other candidates. t The Directors pf the Penitentiary i met in Columbia last week. The y Directors think they will soon be i able to make the institution self- r sustang. There is a great de- 'J mand for convict labor, chiefly from t railroad and phosphate companies. Messrs.

There is light on the electoral cou usiness.

There is a better chance now of o greement upon a funding bill th: here has been since the session col nnced. The influences brought iear on Congress during the last wei ir ten days, both from the Treasu .nd from business men have had the flet on both Senators and Represe atives. It is unnecessary to say th hat those influences were all favorat o a higner rate of interest than ti {ouse proposed, and to a longer ter r the bonds, and to a lightening he National Bank's alleged burder t well posted Representative sa esterday that if the Senate passed ill making the bond and.Treasu: ote interest 31 per cent., the boni o be redeemable in five years at ayable in twenty,. and the notes r eeable in one and payable in te ears, the House will agree to the hi ith a single change-making ti ote interest 3 per cent. instead of 3 'o this complexion the bill will pr ably come.

Last Wednesday, Jauuary 26, 1881, - Colonel E. B. Gary, the Hon., D. - Wyatt Aiken's attorney in the con tested election case, served his an swer on General Carlos J. Stolbrand f where he was employed as gauger, or a- something of that sort, at a Govern went authorized distillery near Sen eca City, in Pickens county. bh Colonel Gary in speaking of his ly risit to the quarters.of the Republi ie can aspirant for Congressional hon-As. - in the Third Congressional District, said that he was treated with all the politeness and attention which one gentleman could expect from another. id On the 28th instant Mr. Aiken was of notified of Mr. Stolbrand's intention of to take testimony. From the prompt se ness with which the work has com menced, we have no doubt that the full time, forty days, allowed will be of used in a vigorous search for irregu larities in the recent election. The law regulating contested cases will )y give Mr. Stolbraud forty days from of the date of notice, the 26th ; after that. Mr. Aiken has forty days in k- which to refute the testimony taken or in Mr. Stolbraud's ir,terest. Stol brand then has ten days to reply. So that ninety days from the 25th of n, January the whole of the testimony must be taken and sent to the Clerk of the House of Representative at t Washington. Stoibrand has served the following notice of appointments, &c., on Col-. Aiken : STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA. THIRD CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT. In-he Matter of Contest in the Forty seventh Congress.

STOLBLAND, Jan. 2(5,- 1881 Contestant. is The Comning Inauguration. e Money for the Grand Display-Arrangements for the Ball--Decoration of Pennsylvania Avenue-The President's Military 11 Escort, &c. SWASHINGTON, January 31.-With the exception of about S5,000, which is to be expended for fireworks, the money necessary for carrying out the b plans of the iuaugural commwittee has , all been subscribed, and it is thought that this amount will be raised with s-in a day or so. Fr-om avices receiv ed by fhec committee, the inaugura 1- tion ball promises to be a grand sue n cess, and every endeavor ,is being a made to make it the most elaborate oc asion of the kind i-u the history of the country. The new National Mu seum, in which the ball is to be giv - en, is a building of one room, but lit ~- te less size than the National Capitol. two and three-eigths acres of ground. d A fine dressed pine flooring is now be ing laid throughout the hall, which will be waxed. The limit of the nuw - ber of the tickets of admission-8,000 ~- -provides for about six square feet with gas. The music will be the J best that can be sccured. A band of -:t one hundred and fifty m,usicians from leo the East has already been coutracted bee for. In view of the expens,-s attend det ing the preparation no complimentary tickets will be issued, excepting to President elect Garfield and family. . The work on the decoration of Pen. - svlvania avenue will be commenced at once, ten thousand dollars having been given for that purpose. The contracts were signed to day. The escort of the r President elect will consist of about Fel 20,000 militia and fourteen con,pa. Br< nies of regular troops ond amarines. Fra Previous to the ball -a reception will i be held in the Museum building by Fe General and Mrs. Garfield, President Ha and Mrs. Hays and General and Mrs. M. Grant. Gen. Hancock has also been P invited to take part in the reception, i and it is thought from assurances re ceived by the committee that he will accept. Gen. Sherman will be grand marshal of the rarade, and will make V the presentations at the reception. The corresponding secretary of the committee, Assistant Adjutant-Gen. Corbin, has received a large number of orders for tickets from persons out side the city. The Testimony Mill.-Stolbr;and vs. Aiken. Columbia Correspondent News and Courier, 4th inst. Yesterday ~the attorneys of Gen. _ Carlos J. Stolbrand and the Hon. D. Wyatt "Aiken went before United States Commissioner Eaton for the purpose of taking testimony as to the contest from this district Before proceeding with the testimony Col. Eugene B. Gary, attorney for Col. Aiken, filed an objection and excep tion on the following grounds. lct, Because the plaintiff's notice that he would take testimony was served on the defeudant at Washington on the 28th of January, 1881, and did not allow the defendant sufficient time by the usual route of travel to attend. and one day for preparation exclusive of Sunday and the day of service. 9 2d. Because the person mentioned in the notice aforesaid for taking testi moriy in this case was not competent for that purpose and not authorized by law to take testimony in such cases. 3d. Because the names of the wit nesses to be examined were not set forth ard specified in said notice. 4th. Because the plaintiff took testi mony at places where-,e-did out al. lege in his notice of coutedt that there was fraiud, violence or illegality of any kind in conducting the election. 5th. Because the testimony heretofore taken in the case was not coufined.to an the-.proof or disproof of the, facts ali leged or denied in the notice of cou test and the answer thereto. The testimony will (possibly on, account of these objeotious) stopped R grinding yesterday and was idle to. day. United States Commissioner E. M1. Stoeber, who has been actinug as general manager to the concern, is a nephew of Stolbrand, which isu't -as it should be. It is said that 2,500I affidavits have been obtained in this county so far to the effect that the affiants voted for Stolbraud. The A Stolbrand party proposed to Col. Gary to extend the time for testi:nony, which he refused. They also asked him to designate some one before pH whom testimony for their side should be taken, but he will hold aloof and take advantage of such blunders as they may wake. Logan's Bill. - The long haired Republican Sena- f tor from Illinois is much incensed with the Democrats because they de- I elined to vote for his bill pensioni-ag General Grant,. and continues .to shake his shaggy looks at the "Rebel Brigadier:" in the most threatening a manner. At last advices this shak- sp ing had no effect upon the Senators r who think differently from the valiant ~ llinoisian or noisian, uor is it likely to have. The Democrats fail to see any reason why Gen. Grant should be a placed on the retired list of the army hia at the expense of the public treasury. , He voluntarily resigned his comn- sp mission as General of th'e Army, to accept the position of President of the em United States. If, as is claimed for ed. him by the stalwarts, he was the savior of the Uniou, the Union has slown himt that it was not un grate- on ful by putting him at the head of its S-. destinies for eight years. Washing or ton was the Father of his Country. its very soul for manty trying years, but when Washington laid down his office, at the end of his term, th:ere was nothing said about pensioning him t f such a thing had been mooted he To would have rejected it with indigna tin. Bu.t times have changed. Grant is not Washington and Grant would not feel iusulted if the pe~usiorn|A was bestowed, however large it might be. Air. Bayard, on whose judgment the country may well rely. struck the key note when he ojected to thle bill on the ground that it was invidious to select one ex-President and overlook all others. If Grant is to be pen sioned. extend the same privilege to all who have been Executives of the Republic. But such a bill is wrong in any event. A salary of fifty thou- P~ sand dollars a year and the honor of being the executive officer of so great a people, should be suffieient to satis fy any man's ambition. To pension ex-Presidents would create a privileged' class, privileged merely because they once held the highest offiee in the nation's gift.--A ugusta C',ronicle. Debt Statement.
