IT has been given out, heretofore and
gonerally understood by the people of the
lfate, that Senator llIiam)to would decline
a re-election to the United States denate.
Btut now it is given out on "good author.
ity" that while he would prefer to retire
from public life and devote the balance of
his days to private affairs, he is, neverthe
less, at the sefvice of the people and will
serve them as long as they demand his
services, If 1envator ilampton desites a
re-election, we suppose he can secure it
without. much trouble, but if he does not
why force it upon him? There are, per
haps, a hundred men in the State who
Would represent. the State as ably nnd as
efliciently as General Hlampton does, and if
his private affairs demands his personal
supervision, we think it would be an act of
injustioe to force him to sacrifice them to
servo the public, especialty when others,
egnally able without private interests to
sacrafce, are willing to take his place. It
Senator Hampton desires a re-election, let
aim come out plainly and say so, if not
et him say so. Then the people will know
vhat he wants.
There is no necessity of forcing , him to
erve the people against his will and pri
ate interest. As to our own part we have
to objections to llampton's re election, but
f lhe doesn't desire it we see no necessity
f forcing it upon him.
Greenville Municipal Election.
The municipal election in Greenville came
ft last. Monday week. There were no
ominations made by either party and the
eld was open to all who might desire mu
icipal honors. The Mayorality was con.
tsted by S. A. Townes, incumbent, and
'Ir. Ilenry Briggs, both good Democrats
nd worthy citizens," in either of whose
ands the interests of the city woul I he
1fe. The contest created considerable ex
itement, and the race was close, Townes
inning only by 42 votes.
Mayor Townes has made a good oflicer,
one of the most substantial business men
*Greenville and in every respect worthy
e leading mierchants of Greenville, and
ands high in the estimiationi of his fellow
tizens. lie is progressive, honest, capa
e and worthy of any honors within the
ft of (lhe good people of Greenville. Ihis
ite must be gratifying to his friends and,
e predict. that if he lives and desires the
>sition, ho will be the next Mayor of
reenville. The following ts the ticket
ected: Mayor-S. A. Tewnes; Aldermien
ohn Slattery, A. i' Wright, Ri. T. Good,

V'he new administration can "tax its en

building and mianagemlent of waler

fan.
We have been infbhned by a gentleman
who visited the place where the "1,000
Kallons of mash and bttt' Is Mid to have
been destroyed, the day after the raid, that
here was, ht Ilionght about a half bushel
f menl, which had been 'stirred up" with
water, at the place, and that was all that
he could see. It is also said that the same
still had beet "smashed" several time be
fore. It is tharged, but whether truly or
not, We do not, know, that some of the
Revenue officers make a business of hireing
narties to put up old stills in certain local
ties, with a little meal "stirred up" in an
>ld Itlb or owo, and then they go and
'smash" them and get the reward of $60
rom the Uovereiment. for their We'rk.
We were told by a truthful gentlieman
he other dny that a man, whose name he
lid not give us, told ldm that he had been
paid by the levenue officers ten dollars for
utting tip one of these old stills. which
hey (the ievenue officers) afterwards cap..
ured. It is said that the stills thus cap.
ured, are "battered about" a little and
brown nside to be put up sotnowh rO +ese
und captired again.
The Government. pays a revlrd of $50,
ve believe, for every illicit d;stillery des.
royed, and it is freely charged in this see.
ion, (not atone byl i itmrats a nd sympa.
hizers with the ''Moonshiners,") that the
ractice of putting up these sham stills by
he levenue officers and then capturing
hem and drawing the reward from Uncle
iam, has been quite common for some time
>nst, and that liatdly any of the stills cap.
ured lately have been really engnged in
liioit work, l'ersonally we know nothing
about these charges, but they have reached
as front several sources and we feel it a
ity we owe to the public, and to the ov.
ernment., to give tb. m publicity.
The levenue officials operating in this
section for the last year or two have gen
orally performed their unpleisant duty in
a very kind and gentlemanly manner, and
we hear of no complaints on this accour.t.
But it is alike due the Government and the
taccused, that an investigation of these char
ges should be made. If the Government is
being systeimatically robbed by the men
appointed and paid to look after her inter
est, she should know it, and the guilty par
ties alouhl he punished to the full extent of
the law. Upon the other hand, if the officers
charged are innocent, they shouiild be exon
erated and set right with the Government
and before the public. We hope th proper
authorities will order a tIorotugh investiga
tion of the charges and let usknow the facts.
Crops in the State.
The State Department of Agriculture has
received 1500 replies front township corres

as to the condition of the growing crops and
the cotilition of the weather for the mnotth
