Merit Onl,
Many of our exchanges are *l
rioirntg 00e1 what is termed A new
eal, says the Anderson Intelligen
er, and yet they axe alvancing rio
ttisfactory line upon which the deal
dia be mxade, and are not present
ig afjg very solid reasons for tli
Jurse which they urge. We would
ko to see the representation upon
to State ticket distributd I more
enerally ovef' th State than it is
t present, and would like to see
toro divernity of interests placed up
ii it; but we are bound in cndor to
ay that we do not believe that there
i a single ineflicient mt*n on our
>resent 5td3te ticket, or that there is
man on it- who has not fully, con
Cienti(ouisly and successfully dischar
ed list official duties. Therefore in
kiaking nominations this year we are
ot in favor of turning any man out
imply because he is in, and we
rust and hltdieve that the people of
$outh Carolina are too coitservative
tudl too just to our public officers to
>ust t.lei simply for the amuse
itent of making a change. Our idea
s, that etcli man that is a candidate
iould be considered on his nierits,
id the best man in point of qualifi
'ation, location and representative
'haracter should benoumin'ted, with.
>it. reference to whether he is now
ln office or out of it. The clamor
for a new deal in the State offices,
tlthoiglh iot so iiitilided, is likely to
be seized by local politicians as a
Iellh by oil which to carry the diffl'ent
c"imities of the State, atndl such a re
stilt vouild prove disastrous to the
public servie. Under our Constitu

area, determined to devote their efforts
to the work of aiding to build up South

to prominence as the exponeut of the in

The first number issued by the pres

with energy and vigor, and the paper
began at once to niakt rapid advance;.
Within less than three months the growth
