The State Campaign.
According to previous announcement the t
State camnpaign speakers visited this place
last Sat urday. On account of the short ness
of the notice given, and the excitement
about the primary election on the day be-v
lore, such preparattons for the recep'ion oft
the speakers as was desirable, could not.
he matde. The crow d in at tendance w as
equtal to that of anyl3 other similar occaslin
ince 187ti, though had it not beeni or the
primary election we think a much larger~
crowd would have beeni piesent. Colonel
II ugh 8. ' hiompson, our st andard bearer
for Governor was the first speaker intro
duced, who held his audience spell boon
for about 45 mirntes. 1 e first compared
the cost of State Government uder Radical
nmnd D.emocratic rule, showing the venality
and extravagance of thle liepublicans am~d
the honesty and economy of the Democrats.
lie showed by facts and figures that the D~em
ocrats had kept every pledge made in 1876.
lie then turned to the subhject of education
and dwelt upon this vital subject at lengthm.
Being perfectly familiar with all the details
of our free school system Ite gave an in.~
teresting account of how the depaitmnent
had been brought out of a chiatotic condit ion
to that of ordher antd proficiency; how lie had
found a debt of about $300,000 against the
department, and how it had beeni paid off
and the number of childeren attending the
free schools increased to at. least one-third
more, of both races, than wvere attending
them when he took charge of the oflice of
superintendent of education, lie said that
the education of the nmasses was the great
est and most important question now be
fore the people of South Carolina, and he
should loose no opportunity, as Govertnor
of the State, when elected, to make the
system as perfect as possible, and place the
opportunity of a good common school ed
cation within the reach of every youth of
the State. We only wish space permiittedl
uis to follow the eloquent speaker through
his entire speech on t lisa great stubj ect bt
we shall have to content ourself with only
a refereace to it. The speech was well re
ceived and we have only heard the highest
commihiedations of it. uipon every side.
The lion. John C. Sheppard, nominee for4
Lieutenant Governor followed Col. Thomp
son, and delivered a most. eloqutent, force
able and convincing speech. lie handled
Greenbackers, Rtadict's and Independents
without gloves, and frequently called forth
loud and continued cheers from the audi
ence. Mr. Sheppard is one of the most
eloquent and forceable speakers in the
8tate, and made a very fir-e imnpression
upon his hearers.
Mie was followed by Col. J. N. Lipscombe,
nominee for Secretary of State, who by his
wit and auecdies kept the uruwed in a
constant uproar of laughter and applautse.
Col. B. WV. Edwards, of Darlingt on, who
has been assigned to campaign work by the
State Executive Committee, next followed,
in a very fine spoech.

The Primary Eletion.
The Democratic primary election for tbis
Younty was held last Friday, the first inst.
lo far as we have ascertained, not a single
uss or difficulty of any character occurred
t any precinct in the County. There'was
tot any whiskey used by ary of the candi
lates, so far as we are Informed, and to this
act we attribute the good order that pre.
,ailed generally. The number of votes poll
d, 1,489, is considerably more than. a ma.
ority of all the registerd voters in the coun.
y. This shuts off the last hope of the suc
iess of an opposition ticket of any character,
nd insures the usual Democratic majority in
he County at the general election, for there
mre nany Democrats in the County who
.iiled-to vote in the primary election that
vill vote the ticket straight in the general
lection. Compared with the votes in all
lie elections since the primary mode has
icen adopted in this County, the vote shows
hat the Democracy is still strong and vig
rous. In 1876 the total number of votes
Polled was only 1,853; in 1878 when excite
iuert ran high upoa the Senatorial election,
he vole ran up to 1,985; itn 1880 it dropped
Iown to 1,512, while the present vote, as
bove given, falls between that. of 1870 and
880. Let all those who differed Lefore
he primary eleation forget that there was
ver any candidates in the field except those
oninated, and give to the successful ticket
united and solid vote on the 7th day of
text November.

This scourge is raging at Brownsville,

The Greenback-Radical-Coalition
"J1. C. HI," the Columbia correspondent of
e Neu-a a,.d Courier, writing under date
'the 20th uit., says:
"1 learned this morning from a trust wor
ysource that, as tihe result, of *"the my,

That Greenbackism is an attempted die
guise of Radicalism, no one of comnmon sense
man fail to see. The success of the Green

y means the restoration of the nebro pop

A Kodel County.
Co1 Keith, editor of the Keowee Courier,
and a party ot trlenids recently visited Table
Rock In this County. in his very interest
ing account of the trip, scenery &c., we
find dhe following in reterence to our town
and Conty.
Through the indefatigable efforts of Sena
tor Bradley, In the cause of temperance,
aidhed by other good citizens and seconded
by the Iadies of the County, Pickens can
boast that there is not and cannot be a ii
sensed bar room in the County. The Stat
ute law forbid, It, and as such reformas
sever go backward we may reasonably con
,lude that Pickens county will ever main,.
ain legal prohibition. hias property re
~eded in value by reason of this? Are her
iitizens removing or dIssatisfied? lHas shte
o immig ration? Have her religious or so
,ial or eduscational interests declined? On
lie contrary, not withstanding thle hitavy
ailroad tax, real estate commands readie,
male at better prices than withI us, while her
population is increasing In number and in.
eihigence and her religious and educational
nterests are eminently active and progres
iive. Iher criminal record and consequent
ly her taxation for court expenses is small
rtnd diminishing. The town, from being at
its laying out. one of the noisiest, most
drinking place. in the up country is now
penceable, social and progrexsve. Property
has advanced In value, some half acre lots
being held at five to six hundred dollars.
With the completion of tine railroad it prom
ises to be a place of business and a general
resort for healt h and pleasure, as Ild Knob,
Table Rock and laesar's flead are all with
in easy reach of the town. The most, re
muarkamble as well as commendable feature
of the town Is the great, Interest manifested
in education. Mtr. Miwlasan, of A bbeville,
with a corps of assistanats, has In successful
operation a high school with ninety to one
hundred -students, many of them grown
young ladies from othier counties and in
some instances from other States. The
citizens have bought a four acre lot, and are
having brick made to erect a regular build
ing for school purposes. in thlii as in their
temperance movements we wish them all
success.

To Gen. Jas. F. IWiar, Chairman, &c.- fl
My Dear Sir: The reluctant consent I gave
to the Executive Committee to accept. the "
nomination or the Convention for the office P
of State Superintendent of public instruc. tu
tion places me in a position I cannot con
sent longer to hold.
If elected to this office by the people I am i
bound ir. honor to enter upon the earnest ail
discharge of its duties. .tit
I am satisfied, after a careful review of pr
the duties of the office. as defined in the
statute, that I could not be a faithful super. ce
intendent of education and remain the rec- 101
tor of my parish. hi
The claims of the latter are paramount, re
and must command my unqualified consid- hi
eration.
This has been my conviction from the pa
first intimnat ion I had of my nomination, but pe
I was constrained to yield it to the opin- on
ions and wishes of others, and especially in
deference to theurgent reqiuest flint I should la
defer to a later period my final determina. pri
tion. pt
After a review of my action I am satis- lan,
lied that I have erred in thus yielding my bei
:onsent to the nomination agaitst my con.
ictions, and that. my duty now is to make WO
s full a co:rection of my action as I can ori
To my fellow citizens who have confer. otf
-ed upon me their confidence I am most i
Mincerely grateful.
if I could serve them in the office to I di
whtich they have called mue, withbout det ri, otf
inent, to the higher service, which for t heir b'
sakes I feel bound to maintain, 1 would not
hesit ate a moment. '

It Is with sorrow thast we see our neigh- I

call upon them to stop and reflect. on thme

turn back before they ruin themselves and I
their faimilies, by cotinecting themselves L
with a polygatnous atid adulterous people, t
accursed by God and denounced by all good c
people. We ask thiemi to look at the histo

they had gotten beyond the pale of civiliza
