tors and Delegates.
COLUMBIA, S. C. June 26.-The
Stte Democratic Convention which
met here to clay proved to be one of
the most remarkable political as
senbiages that South Carolina has
ever seen. It accomplished more
work in five hours than similar
bodies generally perforn in three
days. It was a model deliberative
assemblage. Its personelle was ad.
inirable. Its smooth working was
due largely to the tact of its pre.
siding oflicer, Colonel Charles II.
Simonton, of Charleston, who is,
perhaps, the ablest parliamentarian
in the State. Everything ran alo.g
smoothly, and not one incident
happened to mar the harmony of
the proceedings. There was a no
table absence of speeches. and the
entire session was taken up with
work. The program had been clear
ly mapped out by the executive coi
'nittee, and it only remained for the
convention to ratify its recommeu
dations. The following were elect
ed delegates at larga t4 the national
convention :
Wade Hampton, of Columbia.

THE PLATFORIM.
M.. umy hon the comnmi
i on platform, reported the platform
as follows:
The l temocratic party of South
Carolina in State Convention as
sembled. reaffirming the principles
andl dcclaration- eontained in the
State platforms heretofore adopted
and declaring their continued de
votion to the principles of the Na
tional I'einocratic pa. t.y, declare
the following principles as formula
ting the policy of the South Caroli
na Democracy in State and Fede
ral affairs and invite the aid and
support of all good citizens carry
ing them into effect.
First. Wise and j:tst Icgislation.
the impartial administration of
equal hws, economy with efficiency
in every department of the State
Government.
Second. Popular education is
the bulwark of iree institutions.
Liberal appropriations for the pub
lie schools for the whole people.
Third. The systematic efforts of
the Republican party to obstruct
reform and destroy good govern
ment in South Carolina by turning
to partisan Purposes the appointing
power of the Federal (vernnent
is a standing meiace to the people
of this State, and a growing dan'er
to good citizens in every part of
the Union- The Federal offices in
this State are mnade political infirma
ries and training schools for the de
feat of honest government in South
Carolina.
Fourth. Honest home rule. The
Democracy of South Carolina, re
presenting the tav-payers of the
State and a majority of the whole
people, invite and have the right to
expect the sympathy and suppoit
of their fellow-countrymen in their
strenuous efforts to preserve an
intelligent and equal adwinistra
tion of the Governmentt.
Fifth. The extension of the frau
ebise as a political result of the war
has enlarged enormously the num
ber of present and prospective
voters requiring education in the
public schools. The burden was
increased while the ability of the
State to bear it was ddiminished.
The Federal Governuent, by liber
al appropriations from the treasury,
on the basis of illiteracy, to be dis
bursed by the State officer in charge
of the public school systems of the
States, sho:ld help the Southern
States to cure the evil of non-in
telligent sufnrage.

slation by ' offices under
Third '
appointments to t,
tests that will indicate the qn hu
cations of the applicant, promotion
by merit, a fixed tenure of office and
- no removals except for cause.
Seventh. Blackmailing p u b lie
- servants under the guise of politi
f cal assessments ccnverts the public
Streasury, to the extent of the con
tributions called for, into a cam
.paign fund for the adIvancemn(1t of
a political party, thus taxing the
whole people for partisan puirpO
ses
SEighth. The present prot.ectie
tariff taxes the many for the bene
fit of the few. The dluties Con iln
ports should be decreased, and
an early repeal of the duty on
cotton ties, on the machinery used
nin the manufacture of cotton and
wool and on tools and agricultural
implements will stimulate manufac
turers and be a welcome relief to
.the farmer and laborer.
Ninth. It is most desirable that
. the internal revenue taxation be
abolished as soon as this can be
accomplished without rendering
permanent the existing Protective
system. Rigid economy in the
he conduct of the Government wil
- hasten the day when the tariff shaL
le be as moderate as in the early day~
eC of the Republic, and the armay ol
- office-holders employed under the
,i internal revenue laws be disband
- ed
i. Tenth. The public credit, Nation
i nal and State, must be maintaimed
o Eleventh. In the conduet (I
d. affairs in this State the Demoe-r:ae
have been acinuated by one desire
e. and that is to promote the greates
te ood of the State. D)emocrati
ly unity is puhhec safety and privat
to security.
r Twelfth. In the present cond~
c- tion of political affairs the peoP1
in- of the United States have th
ly oppornnity by electing a Demt
cratic President to ensure to tb
whole Union the reform of abuses
the purification of the public sei
as vice and peace and good wr
throughout the land. Relying in
of picitly on the wisdom and patrio
of ismi of the National Demnocrati
Convention which will assemble1
of Chicago on July 8, we pledge t
the nominees of the party, theret
a be chosen, our hearly, nit.ed an
individual suppor t.

We are satisfied that the Stal
r.Convention ac-tel wisely and w<
to when it refused to postponeC ti
f State nominations, and we feel th
mdits course will meet the approv
Sof the people of the State. The
ka never was any goaod reaLson wI
ait- the nominations should b.e put o
ete and we are glad that the Conve
hey tion was deaf' to those who adv~

THE MASON GiN.
Mr. Charles T. Mason, Jr,, of
Sumter, who is widely known as
the inventor of the Mason Cotton
Picker, has invented a machine for
iniing cotton, which is deserib,d
in the New < !""rier a; fo- I
lows:
A leporter of TIE N:w an
CotaIEn recently visited Mr. Ma
son's workshop in Sumter. S. (..
and saw one of his new gins in
operation. Its Constl5ctint is so
simple that th first Thoiiht that
occurs to the observer upin seeiu;
the gin at work is a feeling of wan
der that no one had ever before
thought of utilizing the principle
of his invention. In place of the
saws and ribs now used in all short
staple gins,AIr. Mason has substita
ted a hollow metallie eyliuder about
one foot in diameter and varying
in length to suit. any of the gin
frames now in use. The cylinder
presents a fluted or wave like sur
face, the waves being paralle1 to its
axis nnd about three-ei;lht-i (f an
inch in width and one-sixteenth of
an inch in depth. The erest of
each of thes.e waues perfora0t'd bV
small triangular a;wrt nrei. ote-eigl t
of an inch apat and, each apertlri e
encloses a sharp netallie tooth, the
point of which is depresseul slightly
below the cylinder snrface. The
arrangement of t; s:! teeth is very
mach, the same as in the pickin
stems of the Cotton Hiarvester, the
teeth bein pintectled or "hooded"
t,y the sides of the apertures in
which they are set, so that the sur
face of thc* cylinder is smooth, to
the touch, the points of the teeth
not being felt: The cylinder re
olves upon a shaf; sinilatr to the
shaft now used in the saw gin. A
steel bar called a "striplp" is fixe"d
parallel ?ith the axi; of the cylin
der,and so adjusted with set sereni s
as to come within a small fraction
of an inch of the face of the cvlinl
er. The weed coAton is fed ii) upon
the revolving cylinder just as it is
ed in uipon1 t ho Faws in the saw
gin. The little teeth ithen demt"ns
trate their usefulne's. Ihe e'i,on,
being fibrons, sini. d:lwn into the
apertures where it is ciight by the
points of the teeth and i; carried
under the stripper b.ir. The seed,
being too large to pass under the
bar, remains ont idH and finally,
after being thoroZghly cleaned of
ll fibre, tirops out of an opening
between the cylinder and the box,
ncs in the saw gin. The
- - cylinder
just aM i
brush which clean
and the condenser which delivers
the lint cotton in a roll are precise
ly the same as those now used in
the saw gill.
We are anxious to see the day
when the candidates befor'e the
primary election will canvas the
county' without brinigly their pri
vate quarrels into politics. We hiav'e
